Altogether, 56 billion dollars worth of fighting equipment to smash the military maniacs at- tacking us. That’s why billions of fighting dollars—your dollars saved for Defense Bonds and Stamps— are needed and needed now! That's why every American man, woman, #nd child must put every dime and dollar not into auto tires but into automatic rifles—not into Juxuries, but into tanks—not into spending for the pursuit of happiness, but into Defense Bonds for the relentless pursuit of our enemies. An important part of America’s job, your job, this year is to spend less and save more—to in- vest in safety with perfect safety! Not only does the U. S. Government guarantee your money, it guarantees to give you $4 for every $3 you save in Defense Bonds when you hold the Boands to maturity! Make up you Defense Bonds—regularly.
