HELP THE GOVERNMENT

Purchasers of Liberty Bonds who
wish 10 help the Government to the
fullest extent should keep the bonds
which tEcy have pu:chGr2d, and when
they buy additional, bon"s do so from
the Government during .oan offerings
rather tliGn in the open market, as the
money paid for bonds purchased in the
market does not go to the Government
but simply to previous holders. On
the other hand, those who must real
izo upon thor invect:nent can always
do 50 at the market price.
