Bell is the campaign symbol, and
"Save for Your Independence," em

this campaign should' be known as the
Independence Drive, because the spirit
of .personal independence has motiva

days," Secretary Snyder said.
"As for the Liberty Bell, it symbol

of' Americanism which serve to sus

acteristics, thrift, of course, is one of
the most outstanding. Thus in the fields.
