trouble if it's prices become so
exhorbitant that its customers
turn against it.
Black markets are costing the
American public billions of dollars
a year. But the cost of supporting
them is infinitesimal compared
with the cost OF supporting all-out
initiation.
The black market merely gives us
a taste of what prices would be like
if ceiling prices were eliminated.
A taste should be enough to prove
to any thinking person that price
regulations should not be ended
until our economy gets back to
normal.

Making 2=3

This year there will be only two War Loan Drives;
not three But in those two drives the Govern
ment will have to raise almost as much money
from individuals in the three drives last year.
That means bigger extra bonds in the 7th. Because
only by buying more can we make take the
place of g.
The 26 million Americans who buy bonds on
payroll savings are already off to flying startl
These patriotic men and women began their buy
ing in April. And they will keep on buying extra
bonds through May and June!
It's now up to the rest of us. It's our turn to
swing in line. To raise the vast sum needed, every
American will have to dig deeper into current
income dig deeper into cash reserves Only by
buying bigger extra bonds can we stretch into 8!
Let all Americans do their part-for their own
sake, for their country's
If you have an income-whether from work,
land, or eapital-you have quota in the 7th War
Loan. Find out what that quota is-and make it!

thus putting a lid on the cost
ofliving and maintaining intact
the purchasing power of the
dollar. At the same time, too,
he is insuring the country
and imself against the
catastrophe of a possible post

New Tasks, New Needs

The single greatest obstacle to crushing of Japan
is distance. While in the Battle of Europe supply
ships from our bases in England had only an
overnight run to make, ships in the Pacific have
long-reach round trips taking up to months
to make.
To crush Japan will take time, heroic and back
breaking effort, overpowerng equipment.

So save for your country-save for yourself.
In helping your country, you are also helping

Winning the Peace

There are other weighty reasons for supporting
the 7th War Loan-reasons that take us from the
present to the future.
By investing in the 7th War Loan, the patriotic
American is safeguarding his own future, his
country future.
By putting every dollar over rock-bottom
penses into the purchase of War Bonds, he is
delivering a body blow to wartime Imitation

STRAIGHT TALK
ABOUT THE 7 WAR LOAN

Americans, individuals, are taking on their big
gest quota to date billion dollars, billions
in Bonds alone.
You may be wondering 'Why this biggest of all
individual quotas nov? Haven't we already reached
the neak2''
A fair question requiring straight answer
The Money Is Needed for War
The Battle of Japan has just begun. 1t must be
backed up, paid for, fought for by free people,
intent on sweeping the Pacific clear of fascist hate
forever.
With the war in the West our first and major
concern, we have not yet been able to go all-out in
the East But neither has the Jap.
The war to crush Japan will be bigger, tougher
and longer than most Americans expect The
Allied Military Command has estimated that it
will take years, not months.
The destruction of Japan's armies has not yet
reached the annual rate of normal replacements-
between 100000 and $50, 600 men year. And the
Jap, men in the Pacific know, fights to the
death.
AS far as Japan is concerned, the outer Empire
and the men who defend it-are expendables
The Jap will fight the Battle of Japan from inside
the inner Empire, of which Two Jima was an out
post. And Two Jima, according to Admiral Nimitz,
was pattern of the resistance our forces may
expect to meet in future offensives.

Millions of fighting men-freshly outftted and
equipped-will have to be moved from Europe
halfway around the globe and supplied day-in,
day-out by hundreds of new ships now building.
More of everything will be needed. More B-29s
More tanks, half tracks, jeeps and trucks. More
rockets, mortars, airborne radar.
whole new air force is in creation-huge new
bombers dwarfng the Superfortress- fast new jet
propelled combat planes, the P-80 or Shooting
Star," coming off the lines by thousands.
These are just some of the 101 ways in which
your dollars are needed more than ever to bring
Americas might to its full strength-so that we
may crush our foe the faster, make an end of
killing, and bring our men back home.
And Lest We Forget
The SICK wounded, and disabled will require
medical attention and care.
Many millions of dollars will be required for
mastering out pay and benefits voted by Congressto
help veterans get started again in civilian life.
That's the least we can do in return for what
they've done for us.
