Wars Aftermath
Carries Grave !.
Responsibilities
Says Secretary

Enormous obligations incurred
IN tie achievement of victory will
drain the Treasury balance quickly
and additional funds will be needed
early in December, Secretary of
the Treasury Fred NJ. Vinson has
warned.
He said government expendi-
lures are being drastically reduced
and this will continue vigorously"
but that "the aftermath of war,
however, carries grave responsible
ties that must be met"
The Secretary was referring to
disqualification Of the wounded,
their retraining so they can make
their own way in life, the clothing
and feeding of those yet to remain
in enemy nations, the transports
tion of men home, mastering out
pay and payments for munitions
already used to win the victory.
He said Substantial army and
navy must be maintained until or
der is restored throughout the
world and that athe Victory Loan,
while the last organized on ma
tional basis, will not see the dis
continuance Of the sales Of Series
E, F and G securities" These
types of securities will continue to
be sold because their sale is neces-
sary to help defray continuing ex-
penses.
Mr.. Vinson reminded the Nation
that the government looks to the
individuals for $4,000, 900, 900 of
the $11 200, ,OO0, 900 quota. He said
it is desired that $4,000, ,00O, 900, or
half Of the individual sales, be in
the Series f imam in the street"
bond that pays 33 and one-third
profit at maturity, ten years.
The Secretary laid stress on a
new type Of bond to be issued dur
ing the Victory Loan. 1t is in
memory of "the late President
Franklin ID. Roosevelt" Mr.. Vinson
said, land is for 5000 at maturity
in the Series K group. "This Vic
tory Bond" Mr.. Vinson said, "hon-
oring great man and leader, will
sell for $150. 1t carries the like
ness of Mr.. Roosevelt and was de
signed especially in his honor" The
bond, by special arrangement, will
carry the authorizing signature Of
Mr.. Henry Morgenthau, Jr., wht
was Secretary of the Treasury
prior to Mr.. Vinson and a lifelong
friend Of the late President.

That $4,000 college education
only costs $3,75O in Victory Bonds
today; the difference is profit at
maturity.
Put that profit into Victory

of 33 and one-third at maturity.

Thousands more are scattered
over the face of the globe anxiously
awaiting their turn to come home.
To finish paying for the munitions
we equipped them with, to maintain
them from day to day and their
meager monthly pay wherever they
are, to give them the best in medi-
cal aid and comfort and, finally,
to transport them home and give
them their discharge pay amounts
to total cost that is only slightly
less than the month to month cost
before the war ended
"Ohio's quota for f." Bonds alone
amounts to $119,000,o00. approxi-
mately $4,000 for each of our sons
and daughters in service. That is
less than the amount of their dis.
charge pay.
II am confident that there are
well over half million people in
this state who will gladly loan our
government $4,000 to assist in full
filling one of our most sacred obli-
cations. BY our actions during this
coming drive they shall know the
