Let's All Back the Attack.
•The die is cast! .
We are all set to win the war.
But to win the war speedily and to secure unconditional surrender of
our enemies, we must provide the sinews of war.
The Third War Loan provides us with the opportunity to make good our
obligations to the United States and to humanity.
This is our chance to say to the country at large:
We are Americans all, and we are set to guarantee the survival of the
sacred traditions which distinguish our great country from all the nations of
the earth..
Each of us is obligated to make his investment . as large as possible.
Such an investment spells security for all of us.
Every dollar invested in War Bonds -Means added ammunition for the
speedy end of the war, and it also assures the strengthening • of our inner
defenses so that our children and our children's children may be safe from
any future attacks from the tyrants who have threatened to destroy
civilization.
In the course of human events, now that each one of us is engaged in a
struggle against inhumanity, it becomes necessary for every person who
cherishes the ideal of Americanism to accept the challenge that is implied
in the democratic cause.
I am confident that all of us will respond to this challenge in the spirit
of the founders of this Republic.
- The war can be won only if we fight it at home as well as abroad.
The Third War Loan provides a battlefield at home—and because it is a
front line away from the dangers to which our sons are subjected throughout
the world, our participation must be offered unstintingly.
The more successful this War Bond drive, the closer will we
brought to victory.
On to Victory, therefore, by oversubscribing the Third War Loan!
be
. The Third War .Loan, starting Sept. 9, offers another opportunity for
Americans 'to help their country in its greatest emergency . and to help them-
selves at the same time. -
Detroit and Wayne County's share of the . *Third War Loan is
$256,000,000. Our Government is. aski
ng you to buy at least one $100 Bond
over and above your regular Bond purchases, *to put the equivalent of two
weeks earnings into extra Bonds during this* drive. •
Let's not be emotional about it . . . Inhuman fiends • battering helpless,
harmless, feeble old men and women and innocent children into bloody
pulp . . . Ruthless invading armies, Quislings, informers, concentration camps,
civilians digging their own graves t firing squads. It is true we are in arms
against that sort of thing over there, and shall, with the help of God, keep
it froM happening over here. But you've' read all that before, and heard it,
from eyewitnesses, over the radio.
Let's be practical.
We are. committed to a war, engaged in it, righteously, relentlessly. A
war that can have only one outcome. Our army and navy and air force
need the weapons and ammunition with which to fight, the food to sustain
theni, clothing, medical supplies, transportation for themselVes and for all
these things. They cost money. During this short period, we must raise the
largest amount of money from individuals that - any drive has ever raised in
the' history of the world. And we can do it, if you (meaning . all Americans)
will do your share.
You are not being forced -to give this money. Nobody is going to make
you stand and deliver. Your dollars are your own, to spend, or hoard, or
invest, as you see fit.
Spending surplus money means skyrocketting prices, inflation, robs your
dollar of its value. It has happened before. It can happen again. To prevent
this—let's buy more War Bonds!
•
The Third War Loan is, as its name implies, a loan. On the very finest
security—all the tangible, material wealth of the richest country in the
world, America. An investment, at a rate of interest that will bring you
four dollars for every , three you lend today . . . four dollars with which to
buy and own and enjoy the better things of life, and the only kind . of life
worth living . . . in the years of peace and plenty that will conclude the
bitterest struggle in which mankind has ever been engaged.
Maybe there is more to be bought elewhere.
Where?
