Beginning April 12. the drive to raise $3.500,000.00 from the sale of bonds in Umatilla county, or $100.00 per capita, will drive home to every one the great necessity for need of funds to win the war. This second war finance loan must be met and our country and our government expects it of us. It is a serious matter and there can be no quibbling or stalling. You should buy voluntarily and save the committees the time and effort of calling on you. In addition to serving our country in its patriotic effort to end the glo bal carnage, the bonds are a good in vestment, and every buyer will get his money back with interest. Our boys are fighting bravely and dying at all our fronts, and receiving small pay, much of which is returned to de pendents at home. The American people are receiving large salaries and wages, and no one has been forced to real sacrifices yet. Our losses are not at home, and our sufferings are yet comparatively nil. The losses are boys over seas and in our inability to get supplies and fight ing equipment to them. The Under seas menace of the enemy is growing stronger and the armies of Germany and Japan are still far from defeat. China needs much help and help to China is help to us. Our sometimes overconfidence in winning the war has a tendency to undermine our efforts, and the sup port of our forces abroad. There is no use in blinking our eyes to the great needs and long fighting ahead. We cannot win in 1943, nor in 1944, nor perhaps in 1945 unless we bend all our energies and contribute our all if necessary. In addition we must also be in position to win the peace, and that, too. is a long way ahead. The new town of Ordnance is walk ing right along. This month a group of housing units are expected to be completed which will help considerably in relieving the housing situation. Homes are called for daily, almost hourly, and we hope that by Summer many more people will be comfortably quartered, in order, that the defense work may go on more satisfactorily. i ‘ The 2nd War Loan | 1. : ; Waz Finance Comiitee 13 billion dollars must be raised HE GOVERNMENT of the United States is asking us to lend it 13 billion dollars in the next few weeks. We can do it. And we must do it. Every American must realize the truth : • In this, our toughest war, we’ve made a good start. We’ve trained a lot of men—made a lot of weapons—built a lot of ships. But it’s only a start. No man or woman among us would contend for a single instant that we’re doing enough now to win this war! T $ :, WE’VE GOT TO* BUILD MORE! : » ; ; We broke all records building 8 million tons of shipping last year. But grim-faced Army and Navy men will tell you that the 18 MILLION tons we’re building this year still won’t be enough ! WE’VE GOT TO FIGHT MORE! From now till this war is won, America must be on the offensive. In ever-increasing numbers, your sons, broth ers, husbands must go into actual battle. Our losses have already begun to mount—and they will not grow less. OVER THE TOP FOR VICTORY AND WE’VE GOT TO BUY MORE WAR BONDS! with UNITED STATES WAR Sure we’re all buying War Bonds now.
