toward any plan for improving
Washington, SO long as it can rea-

today in urging continued subscrip-

Indorsing the battle against in

campaign to stimulate Savings
Bond sales which ends July 4, Mr.
Johnston said:
Americans who invest their sur
plus cash in United States Savings
Bonds are doing good thing fol-
their country as well as for them
selves. There are too many buyers
and too few goods. That can't be
helped until production catches up
with consumption, but, meanwhile
too much competition between
potential customers could cause
trouble.
The pressure of excessive de-
mands for goods in short supply
could put our whole economy out
of whack. When such conditions
prevail the price paid has little re-
lation to value received Patriotic
citizens will help their country by
buying bonds instead of encour-
aging inf1ationary pressures They
will help themselves at the same
time because there is no safer or
better investment than United
