added to the previous seven bill
lion voted for the lend-lense aid
gives the treasury new financing
problems and it is expected that
in addition to extra taxes more
pressure will be put on the pub
lie to buy defense bonds and
stamps.
The sale of defense bonds now
totals about one billion dollars,
which the treasury department
considers satisfactory in view OF
the fact that sales have not been
pushed to the extent the Liberty
bonds were in the last war. 1t is
believed that several billion more
in sales could be made if a we'll
directed campaign is started to
arouse the public to buy them
Sales already have been consld-
erably stimulated by making
stamps available in all retail
stores and many Of the stores
have devoted part Of their adver-
Using to pushing the sale OF
