THRIFT SUNDAY

TUCSON, Arizona, June 2O.-"We
are making an appeal to all Of the
churches, not only in Tucson, but
throughout the. State, to cooperate
with the Government in making Sun
day, June %, which has been de-
signated as National Thrift Sunday,
a success" said Mr.. Victor F. Pal
mer, State Director of War Savings.
'"Thrift is a fundamental prin-
ciple of our civilization, and is akin
to religion and good citizenship.
And, as thrift is of such vital i'm
portance, especially during these DAYS
of reconstruction, the Government
anticipates hearty response on the
cart of both ministers and laymen
throughout the state"
"This movement is not an appeal
that is being made for subscription,
but rather personal donation to
ones self, and one which the Govern
ment needs to meet reconstruction
expenses, and which it will return to
to you with good interest"
''The present needs of our country,
now that the war has been success
fully fought, are no less great
and should be looked after with the
same keen sense of patriotism as
when our boys were giving their
lives in the front trenches Of
| France"
"The Nations debts must be paid,
that's sure. The Nations debt will
be paid and a great source Of our
country's income during these times
of readjustment must be realized
through the sale of War Savings
Stamps"
"ln these days at high prices Of
the ordinary commodities Of life, I
believe every Individual rich or poor
should continue the practice of the
forced lessons of war time economy,
and it is to this end that the Gov
ernment has given us the Thrift
Stamp and the War Savings Stamps,
thereby placing real government Sc
turtles into the sands Of even the
children of the Nations"
