It takes planes—thousands of them—and tanks —thousands of them—and shells—millions of them —and bullets—billions of them! It needs ships and guns and jeeps . . . It takes Money! It takes the money of All of us—the girls at their typewriters, the men at their maehines—the clerks, liie farmers, the messengers, the bookkeepers and the salesmen. It needs a surging, patriotic Nation of people who love their country enough to buy a share of America by investing 10% of their wages every payday — a dime from every dollar — in War Bonds. It needs—and it’s getting it!—the cooperation of Labor and Management to put the Payroll Savings Plan over the top.
