Ten Reasons Why We Should Purchase
War Bonds - Now And In The Future

The War Bonds and Stamps you buy today will not only
continue life of liberty but make difference in the
lives of future generations Viewed in the light of the
present war in which America finds herself fighting for
the seadfast principles and unrammeled way of life
queathed to from the birth of this nation it is a
struggle of vital import in which every American con-
cerned Viewed in the light of mans past history and
generations to come it is struggle in which the world is
concerned for America has been delegated special role
to play in the progress of humanity Upon how well Am
defend what she has learned of freedom justice
and vision depends the future progress of the world
In the inevitable adjustment that must follow this war
H. u Wells has pointed out IN ms history OF the Worid
that will be saved from many cruel deluslons ana ms
takes if bear in mind that human races do not branch
out like with branches that together
agan-but remingle at any opportunity Men make love
and tribes make war"
But wars end and their leaders, disgusted with the
cruelty and horror of war it and for time
peace in the troubled history of the world 1t is for
these brief nterludes that pours out his life blood
in suffering and anguish To prolong them grasp and
hold them firmly is the vision for which our American
heroes giving their lives today - and toward which
your purchase of War Bonds and Stamps will aid them
Wells has told that "ony strong mutual in
erest justify close linking of peoples of dissmilar
languages and faith That mutual interest it hoped
will be found after this in the simple commandment
Thou shalt not kill The desire of motherhood to protect
and defend her offspring will supply the universal langu
age upon which the world start to build.
1.-The greater power and range of human activities has
made war Internationally destructive and dsorganiZ
ing and even clumsy way OF settling issues between gov
ernments Before world unity can be put into effect
however ii is necessary that the common mind of the hu
should be possessed of the idea of human unity
and that the idea of mankind family should be
matter of universal instruction and understanding.
No presume TO what the harvest of this
war will be- for already the idea of human brotherhood
struggles to possess the human SOUL Before this can be
realized, perhaps other generations will have to live
through and waste before sheer misery will find
better way This what America is fighting for this is
what your purchase of War Bonds and Stamps will help
to bring about
In leadership toward better way the United States
halfway between European State and United States
of the world"
The burning question, Wells tells us; not why the
World War was begun, but why the World War not
anticipated and prevented Physical science gives power
STEEL distance disease; whether that pow
is used for good i'll depends upon the moral and poll
tca intelligence of the world The distinction maintain
ed in civilized warfare between civilian and combatant
population has disappeared The ufferngs and deaths of
of thousands of and children in
voved today From such seeds these real force for
world unity and world peace grows
Man is still only adolescent, but when look at world
history process the steadfast upward srug
gle of life toward which America points the way for
which American youths giving their lives, and which
your dollars invested in War Bonds and Stamps will help
TO bring about.
