Savings Bonds Fortify Security,
Snyder Tells Drive Workers

| support of the independence
Drive, Edward C. Baltz, chairman
Of the local division, said earlier:
IT think this independence
theme very timely. Through thrift
we help to save our national in
dependence, our system of self
rule and individual enterprise
against those who would destroy
these things we live by. Regular
saving helps to build up oul
moral stamina as well as our eco-
nomic strength, Individually and
nationally.
Individual Americans today
hold over $48.5 billion worth OF
Savings Bonds cash value, and
over $34 billion of it is in Series
E Bonds. Our Savings Bonds
holdings in the District are around
$500 million. Savings Bonds
like all savings, constitute financial
reserves that help to keep our
community in sound economic
balance"
Burl Ives, the famous folk
singer, entertained last nights
dinner audience with several Sc
lections. The Navy Band Or
chestra provided music, under the
direction of Chief Warrant Officer
Richard Townsend.
Evening star., 1950-03-30

The worlds nope Tor peace and
security depends in large measure
on the purchase of Savings Bonds,
Treasury Secretary Snyder said
last night, in urging public sup
port of the forthcoming indie
pendence Savings Bond campaign.
The new drive will begin on
May Is and will end July 4. 1t
has a national goal of $3.50 mil
lion in "E" Bond sales. The Dis
trict quota is SIS million.
Mr.. Snyder asked for full pub
lie support of the drive at q
dinner last night in the Mayflower
Hotel. The campaign has as its
theme "Save for Your Independ-
ence." and as a symbol, the Lib
erty Bell. The Secretary spoke be-
fore about 500 paid and volunteer
keymen from all the States, whose
job it will be to supervise the
drive. Earlier they had attended
an all-day conference.
To-day, as never before. the
spotlight of history is focused
upon our Nation" Mr.. Snyder
said. THE worlds hope for peace
and stability depends in large
measure upon the economic, mill
tary and spiritual strength of this
Nation. The task, then, falls to
every one Of us as individual
Americans to see that our eco
