THE GOVERNMENT of the
United States is asking us to lend
it 13 billion dollars in the next
few weeks. We can do it. And
we must do it. Every American
must realize the truth:
In this, our toughest war, we’ve made a
good start. We’ve trained a lot of men—
made a lot of weapons — built a lot of
ships.
But it’s only a start. No man or woman
among us would contend for a single in
stant that we’re doing enough now to win
this war!
B—
WeVe Got to Build More!
We broke all records building 8 million
tons of shipping last year. But grim-faced
Army and Navy men will tell you that the
IS MILLION tons we’re building this year
still won’t be enough!
WeVe Got to Fight More!
From now till this war is won, America
must be on the offensive. In ever-increas
ing numbers, your sons, brothers, husbands
must go into actual battle. Our losses have
already begun to mount—and they will
not grow less.
And WeVe Got to Buy
More War Bonds!
Sure, we’re all buying War Bonds now.
But we’ve got to help pay for our increas
ed fighting and building . . . We’ve got to
match, as best we can, the sacrifice of
those Americans who are toiling and
sweating on a dozen battlefronts — with
the bloodiest yet to come. The blunt fact
is this: to keep our war machine going,
we’ve got to dig up 13 billion extra dollars
this month. 13 billion dollars over and
above our regular War Bond buying!
In the next few weeks you may be visit
ed by one of the thousands of volunteers
who are contributing their time and effort
to this Drive. But don’t wait for him.
Make up your mind now that before this
drive is over, you’re going to march right
down to your nearest bank, Post Office,
or place where they sell War Bonds, and
do your dlity. And don’t ever forget this:
in doing your duty, you’re doing yourself
ona of the biggest favors of your life!
For United States War Bonds are the
greatest investment in the world — bar
none. They’re investments tailored to fit
your particular situation. And they give
you the chance of a lifetime to order and
get the kind of world you want to live in
after this war. Every cent you put in War
Bonds now will help to guarantee plenty
of peacetime jobs making peace-living for
every one of us.
For your Country’s sake—-for your own
sake—invest all you can!
