MERICA — Let’s be frank about it . . . so far, many of us back home have been | fighting this war from an easy chair. Many of us have bought War Bonds out 'of extra cash, out of money we didn’t miss too

much. We hayen’t been really tough with

ourselves. But this war is a Bard, down-to-reality war. And many of our boys are dying in it.

We've got to buy MORE

So your government asks you to buy Bonds and

more Bonds—to get really tough with your-

self. We’re asking you to give up the frills and $‘extras” for the rest of this war.

We know how human it is not to make scr.

‘fices until the crisis drives us to it. In England they felt the same way until the bombs started falling. Now they can’t do enough! ~~ Bombs are such persuasive things. But just

as persuasive ought to be the spirit of our broth-

ers, sons, husbands — who are ready to give all. Think now... what are your dollars, compared to their lives? If you could see Took at it this way — suppose you had a magic

Guinea. Suppose you could hear the groan of American boys wounded, and American boys dying . . . Say. DOW, how many. Bongls would you buy?

THEY . . . are dying. And they will Keep on dying until we drown the enemy in an over-

- whelming torrent of bombs, bullets, guns,

“tanks, planes, ships, and shells. That's why we're asking you, in this oiie month of April alone, to lend Uncle Sam 13 billions of dollars — by buying War Bonds. 13 billions of extra dollars — over and above any buying that you’d be doing anyway!

A lot of money 13 billion dollars is a lot of money. It’ll take sweat and tears to raise it. It’ll mean going without now. But also — it will mean saving now—to buy later. It'll mean giving up every-

thing you can’t square with your conscience,

so that we, us, our children, can have a more

decent place to live in when this war is won.

The drive is on

So, if someone ‘calls on you to ask you to buy

War Bonds in this 2ND WAR LOAN DRIVE, will you buy to the limit— and then buy more? Better yet, will you go to your Bank, Post office, or wherever you're used to buying your Bonds — and buy NOW? Will you lend extra money this month? Money that can hasten the day of Victory? Money that can ‘help to save American lives?

Money buys money -

- Remember, what you're really buying with

your money is still more money. For after all, these Bonds are money! Money plus! Every dollar you put into War Bonds will bring you

“a dollar plus interest.

So the more Bonds you buy the better for you. Americans— Get Tough —with your-

- selves — for your country,
