1 INVEST IN VICTORY!
Our boys can take the War to the enemy, if we back them
up with ships and tanks and guns ! But that takes money !
Help your Government to put the tools of war into the
hands of our soldiers by purchasing War Savings Bonds and
Stamps. And remember . . . just one Bond can't lick the
Axis any more than just one gun! It takes millions of
Americans buying War Savings Bonds and Stamps every
pay day!
Bonds cost $18.75 and up . . . and they pay you back
one-third more in only 10 years ! Stamps cost 10tf, 25e and
up . . . poon total the price of a Bond if bought regularly.
Help our boys on the fighting fronts wherever they may
b ! Buy War Savings Bond3 as an investment for yourself
and your country.

On Depression,

Yon-
AUSTIN, Tex. (ACP). Eco
nomic depression after this war
can be avoided, in opinion of Dr.
C. E. Ayres, University of Texas
economist. Dr. Ayres suggests
as America's postwar slogan,
"Come on. Depression . . . We
Licked Hitler and We Can Lick
You."
The economics professor said
the government's immense spend
ing program will help redistribute
the wealth and thus furnish a
hedge against depression. Re-designing
of industry to produce ci
vilian needs, increased by war
time scarcity, can provide jobs for
millions now turning- their efforts
to war production.
