Many of us have bought War Bonds out of extra cash, out of money we didn't miss too much. We haven't been really tough with ourselves. • But this war is a hard, down-to-reality war. And many of boys are dying in it. We've got to buy MORE Co your government asks you to buy Bonds and more Bonds -- to get realty tough with yourself. We're asking you to give lip the frills and "extras" fc>r the rest of this war. We know how human it is not to make sacrifices until the crisis y 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 brothers, sons, husbands -- who are ready to give all.' Think now . . what are your dollars, compared to their lives? •; I# you could see ; L#ok at it this way*--suppose you had a magic carpet that could take you to Africa and New Guinea. Suppose you could hear the groan of American boys wounded, and American boys dying . • . Say now, how many Bonds would you buy? • That kind of war THEY • * . are dying. And they will keep on dying until we drown the enemy in an overwhelming torrent ^ bombs, bullets, guns, tanks, planes, ships, and shells. • That's why we're asking you, in this one 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 Of course, 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 inean savings now--to buy later. It'll mean giving up everything you Can't square with your conscience, so that we, us, on decent place to five in The drive is op So during *hla month of April, if someone calls on you to ask you te. buy War Bonds in this 2ND WAR LOAN DRIVE, will you buy te the limit--and then buy more? Better yet, will you go to your Bank, Postoffice, or wherever you're used to buying your Bonds --and buy NOW? Will yon lend extra money this month? Money that can hasten the day of Victory? Money that can help to save American lives--perhaps your son's or your brother's to shorten this war? ^ Money buys money Remember, what you're really buying with your money is still mora money.
