 even harder for them A good deal

 The war savings campaign is the most effective means of impressing the citizens of this. country with the fact that we cannot support vast . army in the field and a great navy at sea and at the same time spend the ! same amount of money we used to before the war for things which may
 be perfectly proper. to buy in times :. of peace but which are not necessary
 to. the, carrying on of the great war
 which we are now fighting. =. !. It.,is desired to impress upon the T ! American people that every citizen must get behind the government - which is devoting it's entire energies to Waging a great warfare for free ; dom. This warfare requires the put ;. ting. of. men. in the field and keeping them. fed and clothed. It requires tho a production of. shops and shells. gun. - and rifles, motor trucks. saddIery ' a variety of goods. the output O : which calls for the vast industria :. plants from one end of the country tt the other, manned by millions of mei o and women who serve their .eountr.
 as effectively as are, our soldiers ant !. sailors. If the. American people, con tinue to require all the pleasant ant
 comfortable luxuries which they con 7 sumed before the war. they are mak e4t ing. it necessary for other factories Ss and shops, also, employing millions O U men and women, to produce articles !, which do~nnot help to bring peace /; '4f day nearer, when they might be de a a voting themselves to the production r Eof the necessary things which will hell :. to. win, the war. .e@r .:,lr- .a .'
