Postwar Efforts

LOS ANGELES, March 80. CUP)
Businessmen will need as much
ingenuity to win a third war against
unemployment as the armed forces
are using to beat Hitler and Japan
C. Scott Fletcher, national field
director for the committee for eco
omic development, told a group OF
business leacers.

culture plan now to reach new lev

first two wars will have been
fought in vain" he said to more

leaders of southern California, Ariz-
ona, and Nevada.
I'VE will have to tind a way OF
keeping 55,000,000 people employed
after the war and turn out a gross
national product of around $142,-
00O, 100000 at the 1910 price level,
he declared.
That's about as per cent more
than we produced in 1910, our best
pre-war year"
To attain this proc uction-
ployment goal, Fletcher said, busi-
nessmen will have to adopt a policy
Of volume production with small
unit profit.

Keep Our Pledge Of Faith

THE Fifth War Loan drive, now
l. in progress throughout the
United States, gives the American
people an opportunity to show their
fighting forces all over the world
that their pledge of faith is more
than empty words.
The fighting men of America are
showing us where the money goes.
Now let us show them the money
they need is Forthcoming.
Money in this sense, and particu
larly according to the fighting mans
Interpretation of it, is not mere
dollars.
It is the stuff he fights with, the
weapons he Yields against the
enemy, the munitions he expends,
the planes that put an umbrella over
him, the ships that transport him
from the homeland to the battle area,
the food and medical supplies and
all the vast stores of equipment that
sustain him.
Those are the vital things to the
fighting American.
They are the essential and in
dispensable things the home front
American must provide, without
stint and without delay.
EOR the fifth time in the course of
L this war, the government of the
United States is now asking the
American people to buy EXTRA
war bonds for the support of the war.
No thoughtful American will
offer the excuse for nonparticipation
in the Fifth War Loan drive that he
has bought bonds before.
No patriotic American will con-
slider he is already doing enough
because of his pay roll deductions
that are buying bonds regularly.
No loyal American will restrict
his bond buying to what he can COM
fortably spare without infringement
upon his pleasures and luxuries or
even upon his necessities.
America cannot SUPPLY this
great war without restriction upon
comforts any more than it can
FIGHT the war without casualties.
And since We have pledged our
FAITH to the fighting men, the test
of our sincerity and loyalty is in our
willingness TO sacrifice comforts as

completely as they sacrifice their
lives.
The American people are going
to KEEP their pledge of faith.
HEY made that clear on D-Day,
i when the electrifying news of the
great invasion sent thousands of
them spontaneously and enthusiastic
cally to the bond booths of the ma
ton.
They have their beloved sons and
brothers and fathers in this war.
They have the destinies of their
cherished country at stake in it.
They have their own rights and
liberties, and the rights and liberties
of all Americans in the future, hang
ing upon the issue of it.
They are putting their mighty
production, their labor and sweat
and tears, into it.
Who among them will withhold
his money from it?
The objective of the Fifth War
Loan drive is to raise SIXTEEN
BILLION DOLLARS for the sup
port of the war.
That is an inconceivably large
amount of money.
AS every American knows, it is
only PART of the total cost of the
war.
But it is a vital part.
A ND the American people will not
n shrink from any necessary part
of the total cost of this war, any
more than any American fighting
man will shrink from any urgent
duty, even though the loyal and
unfinching performance of his duty
costs him his life.
America must meet the challenge
of the Fifth War Loan drive.
America has made a PLEDGE
OF FAITH.
What travesty upon that pledge
it would be, and upon the honor of
our people, if it should be necessary
to tell the boys who have stormed
the beaches of France and have seen
their comrades fall there that their
folks back home have FAILED them.
Let the word that goes to our
boys in France, and in all the battle
areas of the world, be that the home
folks MADE GOOD.
