DESSY’S and CELE BRATE Dessy’s Tavern WAR BONDS A These huge GO-ton heavy tanks cost $120,000, and America’s auto motive and locomotive plants are turning them out on a never-ending assembly line. Our army uses light tanks, weighing 14 tons, and me dium tanks of 23 tons also, but we favor the medium tank over the Hay Salt Machinery Repair Parts These heavy tanks are needed for certain phases of modern warfare, and with their thick armor and heavy-gauge guns they are almost unstoppable. They are considered superior in gun power, in maneuver ability and in the power of their huge tractor motors to Axis tanks. Americans everywhere are helping to pay for these monsters of war through their purchase of War Bonds. Invest at least ten percent of your income in War Bonds every pay day. u. 5. 7 reantry Department Vernonia Trading Co.
