Lo yt people say the Victory Loan is a business propo- sition—that sentiment is a thing of the past. « « * * That isn’t the case for the thousands of maimed and injured Americans who will go through life bearing the mark of the Hun—that isn’t the case for the 69,000 brave men who lie in silence awaiting eternity’s call; they died to save a fair world threatened with destruction. « « « « But look at it as a business proposition. The United States govern- ment is offering you the most attractive investment set before the American people in half a century: ~If you have a moderate income you can buy the 4} per cent. Victory Loan notes, free of the normal income tax. That is a return well worth while, backed by the guarantee of one hundred million Americans. These 4} per cent. notes compare favorably with fully- taxed investments up to 10 per cent. * * * * So act now! Get your name on the dotted line. Take all the Victory Bonds you can buy, and borrow money tobuy more. Not in a half century more, per- haps, may you have another such gilt-edge government offering. « « » Help Seattle “Over the Top!” May 10
