A nations war problems are
not ended when the shooting
stops, Secretary of Agriculture

statement urging whole hearted

In the remaining IL days of the
drive.
"It will take money to put our
war-torn world to rights-to give
wounded veterans needed medical
care, to bring soldiers back home
and get them started on lives as
civilians again, to provide care for
children whose fathers paid for our
victory with their lives" Secretary
Anderson said. Remember, there's
still a big job ahead. Let's pay
for it with Victory Bonds"

Loan total $2,816, 100000, or 1928 per
cent of the $4,000 OOO,OO quota for

this total, s77O,0OO,OOo was in E
bonds. This represents 3S.5 per cent
of the s2,OOO,OO0,Ooo Series E goal.
40 Per Cent Buy.
Mr.. Gamble said an ANALYSIS of
E bond sales shows only 40 per cent
of the income-earning public has
bought Victory bonds. This shows
good progress on the part of our
volunteer workers throughout the
Nation" he added, but, as these
volunteers know, the remaining 60
per cent of the income earners must
buy bonds, if the objective is to be
reached"
The national director said the
success of the Victory Loan will de-
pend on the continued efforts of
the 100000 volunteer bond sales
men. Our war job will not be
over,' Mr.. Gamble said, until the
quotas are achieved in this final
Victory Loan and all the remaining
bills for the cost of victory are paid"
