Opportunity Drive Under Way
The Savings Bond Opportunity Drive is on. It
started Monday, May 16, and will continue thru
June 30 in an effort to induce the American peo
ple to purchase SI ,0-10,000,000 in Series E bonds.
Every American will be asked to buy where he
works and to further promote participation in the
two savings plans. Payroll Savings and Bond-A-Month,
in order to meet national, state, conuty,
and community quotas. The slogan is "Put More
Opportunity in Your Future."
The first reason for the campaign is the na
tional debt. The widest possible distribution of
this is the responsibility of all of us. Through
continued investment in these bonds by individ
uals we distribute the debt as widely as possible
rather than concentrate it in banks, thus securing
a better balanced ownership and a less volatile
debt. Further, as the debt shifts from banks to
persons billions of dollars of interest go into
American homes.
Again, every individual holder of Savings
Bonds becomes a better citizen interested in better
government because, like corporation stockholders
he has a financial, as well as an active, stake in
Uncle Sam.
To sensibly increase the amount of Savings
Bonds outstanding and to point out to all Ameri
cans that their backlog of savings represents an
Important factor in their own and the nation's
economic stability.
Forty-seven billions In Savings Bonds are now
in the hands of the people. This is an all-time
high, and represents almost one-fourth of the
liquid assets of Americans.
By keeping our economy stable through creat
ing financially sound families and communities
with reserves of purchasing power, we help prove
that our American system is best.

Even Labor Can't Go For This
Railroad labor is solidly aligned against the
Department of Justice's reparations claims pend
ing before the Interstate, Commerce Commission.
The Justice Department charges that the rail
roads should have given the government more
favorable rates on its wartime freight. Between
two and three billion dollars is involved. The
railroads contend that in no instance was the
government charged more than the established.
published rates paid by other shippers; that most
of the government wartime freight was moved at
greatly reduced rates saving the taxpayers many
millions of dollars; that S5 per cent of the profits
of this freight was taken by the government
through income taxes; that the railroads' average
earnings for the war years were less than five
per cent on investment less depreciation.
The motive behind this suit is so obvious that
the railroad labor bodies want none of it out
right control of the railroads. There is no kgiti
mate excuse for taking over so the "planners'
are making an excuse. They will make it s
tough for the railroads that the respective man
agements will be willing to make an assignment
to the boys who know all there is to know about
everything so long as it is putting the govern
ment in control of everything.
The railroad labor groups know that once the
government takes over there will be no further
opportunity to arbitrate labor disputes. They
