Road to Victory
By STRUTHERS BURT
Listen, Americans! We don't
have to be tokl this.
We're a lucky nation. We've
been lucky all through our history.
We began to be lucky the mornen.t
our ancestors deckled to come
here. We're still lucky. But don't
let's crowd our luck.
Our cities are still unbombed;
our children can still walk in safe
ty ; not yet have our wives or
daughters been enslaved or insulted
or raped; none of us have as yet
been, shot as hostages, but it's
coming closer the red real horror
of war, and already on a score of
far-flung battle fronts our young
ine,n stand at attention or are al
ready engaged. So let's finish it
oft. Let's have done with it. Let's
put the murderers .and gangsters
back -where they belong, where we
put Pretty Boy Floyd and John
Dillvnger. And let's make sure
this time. Let's make 1 this as
speedily as possible a world where
decent men and woman can live
and bring their children up de
cen.tly, and let's bring our young
men back as speedily as we can,
and let's bring as many as we can
back whole.
It may take a year; it may take
two years; it may take longer, but
let's finish it off. You know we
can. Everyone knows we can. Even
Hitler knows we can. But it's go
ing to take every ounce of strength
and brains and patriotism we have,
and IT'S GOING TO TAKE LOTS
OF MONEY. And that's where
we older people we mothers and

fathers, and friends and relatives
of all kinds can help directly, and
keep on helping, no matter what
else we are doing, and where the
young people not yet of age or
who can't go to war or who are
essential where they can help.
Day by day, week by week, we
can help. Bonds buy bombers,
stamps buy ships. A dollar today
is worth two tomorrow. Machine
guns and high explosives don't
wait. Neither do submarines.
How much is a young American,
worth ? Each stamp or bond you
buy may be saving his life, and
the lives of two million like him.
Nor will tomorrow do. It takes
only the fraction of a second to
kill a man.
Buy, and buy, and buy, and keep
on buying. Buy regularly what you
can. Ten cents, twenty cents, a
dollar, five hundred, five thousand
buy and keep on buying. Put so
much aside each week. You're in
vesting in. lives, in the future, and
in your country.
Shut your eyes and imagine.
Watch the great tidal wave grow,
your ten cents or dollar in it ;
watch it turn to tanks and planes
and guns and ships ; watch it roll
closer to Berlin and Tbkio and
curl and break. What a lovely
use for money ! What a lovely
hour!
With . every cent you invest you
save a life and hasten the end of
this horror. With every cent you
keep blood-red war away from
these shores. Our young mem will
win on every battlefield, as they
have before, if we will support
them. And the thought of that
and the thrill of investing in your
country how's that as a reward?

Oyer the Top by New Year's Is the
Plea of Secretary Morgenthau
As of today twenty-one million Anerican
workers are investing eight per cent of their
salary - every pay day - in United States War Savings
Bonds. This is a very remarkable tribute to our
armed forces who are fighting thi3 war. But this
Job is only two-thirds accomplished.
There are nine million additional American
workers who are not investing in War Bonds every
pay day.
This appeal is directed to two groups of
Americans:
First - the twenty-one million people who are
investing eight per cent of their wages. We ask
them to increase their investment to ten per cent
or more.
Second - the other nine million whom we ask to
Join the Payroll Savings Plan and to invest ten
per cent or more of their earnings.
It is our earnest hope here at the Treasury
Department that by New Year's Day thirty million
Americans will be investing ten per cent or more
of their wages in War Bonds through the Payroll
Savings Plan.
