The whole burden of carrying on iur own part In the war, and of aid Ing our deter nations In arms, rests on the United Htates Treasury If the treasury tails or falters or Bnda Itself unable to respond to every call upon It. tbe war la lost Do you realise that* Your son. and all the nation's eon« are relying on the Vnltid Stataa Treasury to furnish things with which they may Bgbt Their Ilves are lost If the treasury fails. Our country la lost if tbe treas ury falls. Germany wins If the treasury falls Therefore every cent you can rake and scrape together belongs to th< treasury, that our soldiers may come back to us alive and victorious This Is literally true.
