We Must Huy lloiuls Again!
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.

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!

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. But we’ve got
to help pay for our increased fighting and building ....
We’ve got to match, as best we can, the sacrifice of those
Americans who are toiling and sweating on a dozen battle
fronts—with the bloodiest yet to come. The blunt fact is
this: to keep our war machine going, we’ve got to dig up
13 billion extra dollars this month ; 13 billion dollars over
and above our regular War Bond buying!
In the next few weeks you may be visited by one of the
thousands of volunteers who are contributing their time
and effort to this Drive. But don’t wait for him. Make up
your mind now that before this drive is over, you’re going
to march right down to your nearest bank, Post Office, or
place where they sell War Bonds, and do your duty. And
don’t ever forget this: in doing your duty, you’re doing
