In the United States we have nothing to fear —even though at times we abuse this right. It’s a real privilege to be able to go where we please and say what we please. “‘Yes, it’s worth fighting for.” But there is one thing we must do—‘‘Put up’’ so we won’t have to ““shut up.” Fight talk won’t win. Action will. Let’s stoke the engine of our fighting machine. War Bonds are the fuel. * % Travel Anticipation Plan * * Anticipate your travel needs.

Would you be the one who failed to help buy that plane, tank, or ship—by failing to buy your share of Bonds? Could yox sleep nights knowing that Ameri- can boys were being killed because you and others “put off”” doing your part? 28 Remember, they are OUR boys now—fromn yosr State, your town, perhaps your very home. They’re out there risking their lives—giving their lives—so that America, your free America, can live. And just as you are counting upon them to give everything they've got, so they are counting upon you to give everything you’ve got—by working harder than you ever have before and by investing in Bonds to the very limit of your powers! Can they count on you? Make your answer ring clear and true—let our boys know that every man, woman, and child in America is behind them 100%! Go to your local post office, bank, savings and loan associa- tion, or other official sales agency today. Pledge yourself to buy all the Bonds you can—regularly, every pay day until this war is won!
