If you can't write a good big figure
in the space above then you'd be
smart to adopt a method of savings
that millions of Americans have
found to be absolutely sure fire. This
method is the regular buying of
United States Savings Bonds. People
buy Savings Bonds now on two con
venient plans.. If you are on a iy
roll, through the Payroll Savings
Plan. If you are a professional man
o.' woman or self-employed, through
the Bond-a-Month Plan at your
bank. By signing dp on either
plan, twelve months from now yon
will be able to write nice healthy

" V, S. Treasury Department
Committee. He made this compari
son in a statement in which be
urged that the federal gasoline
tax 1 e repealed.
He pointed out that receipts
from the lV4-cent federal tax on
each gallon of gasoline have aver
aged $32,500,000 a month for the
first 5 months of 1947, while for
the entire year of 1847 receipts of
the federal government from all
revenue sources amounted to only
$26,495,769.
"My point is," he added, "that
the motorists as a class are today
bearing a larger share of federal
taxation on just one product alone
in just one month than was borne
in a whole year by all taxpayers
of the nation a century ago. And
this doesn't even take into consid
eration the other federal taxes on
lubricating oil and motor vehicle
parts and equipment."
Faced with a National grain sup
ply that will be 700 million bushels
short of last year's production,

pastures.
