A number OF Americans will not be.
Many Americans will be dead before this

every day in the weeks to come.
For this is the most critical stage OF the
toughest, bloodiest war America has ever
faced. This is the time when America must
make her supreme military effort. Nothing
can be spared-in men or equipment.
For us at home, too, the greatest effort OF
the war is demanded-nop.
The greatest sum Of money ever raised
must be raised in the next few weeks-by
