YOU ARE being asked to lend more money than ever before? in
the 7th War Loan.
These men can tell you why.
They can tell you of giant ships ready to slide down the ways this year.
They can tell you of a whole new air force in the building ? huge
new bombers and fast new jet-propelled planes coming off the lines

They could chow you why it is cheaper and quicker to give our
Pacific Forces entirely new equipment sometimes ? instead of shipping
tanks and guns from Europe.
They can, in short, show you 101 ways in which your dollars are
needed more than ever to bring America's might to its full strength ?
so that we may crush our foe the faster, make an end of killing, and
bring our men back home.
