Interest on said war rants ceases November 14, 1941. FLOSSIE COATS, Clerk, School Dist. No. 25, Boardman, Oregon. Bombers Must Breathe Today American-made bombers can fly at the unbelievable height of six miles. Here is the story of the small but all important device that helps make stratosphere flying possible. i .... . . . I. iz started on Fike's Peak in 1918, where Army Air Corps engineers showed that an airplane engine could be made to run effi ciently 2)4 miles above sea level! 2. This amazing feat was possible because a "turbosupercharger" developed by the Army Air Corps and G-E engineers pumps extra oxygen into the carburetors. 3. For 22 years these engineers have worked constantly to im prove this vital device. As a result, U.S. bombers can fly above the reach of anti-aircraft fire. 4. Dr. S. A. Moss, G-E engineer who pioneered in this work, now at 69 has the thrill of watching the supercharger help carry our flier higher than any others!

We are rich, we are free, and we are secure because ours is a government of the people, for the people, and by the people. The individ ual is supreme. He has al ways been so from the mo ment the nation was found ed. To him belongs the credit for having created a new way of life the Am erican Way and on him must devolve the responsi bility for its perpetuation. But normal times do not always prevail uninterrup ted either with individuals or with nations. From within or from without, un expected events sometimes and contentment. America realizes at last that these terrible events hold a deadly threat to this hemisphere. Whether we like it or not, or whether we may ever be called on to use our defense, com mon sense and common caution demand that we build up a superlative de fense with a minimum de lay and a maximum of thoroughness. To that end the Secre tary of the Treasury an nounced a campaign to place a large part of the defense debt directly with the public through the sale of Defense Savings Bonds and Stamps. IPS ' "V
