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!
General Electric believes that its first duty as a good
citizen is to be a good soldier. General Electric

Democracy's Way

WASHINGTON, D. C
One hundred and sixty -

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.
