HE big push is on! This is the fateful
summer that we have been waiting for;
Hitler knows he must win before another
winter rolls around, or face inevitable anni­
hilation. And you can be sure that he will
hurl everything he has — every gun, plane,
soldier and tank—into the summer struggle
that is even now rising in tempo on every
front.
.
T
And when the command goes out to our
fighting men to ATTACK—you can be sure
they don't look for excuses. They don’t hesi­
tate. They strike fast and hard—as they did
at Guadalcanal, in Tunisia and|in the skies
over Europe.
NOW the command has come on the home
front to attack! To attack with the dollars
that buy the weapons of war our boys must
have to meet the last desperate assaults of
Hitler. Your government asks you to lend it
13 billion dollars during this drive. And this

historic 2nd War Loan Drive, which started
April 12th, is the most urgent appeal America
has ever made!
The time is short—act now!
When you attack with War Bonds you don’t
suffer pain or anguish—you don’t risk your
limbs or your life as millions of our boys
are doing every day. All you do is make an
investment—the safest in the world. You
help to secure Victory now—and your own
financial security.-
___
During this drive if you are visited by a
volunteer War Bond worker, welcome him.
He will explain the 7 different types of U. S.
Government obligations you may choose
from. But don’t wait for his call—go at once
to your nearest bank or Post Office or place
where they sell War Bonds. And answer the
command to ATTACK by buying more Wax
Bonds—and still more War Boadsl
