A As Commander-in-Chief, I hereby invoke every citizen to give all possible aid and support to this Third W ar Loan drive, not only so that our financial goal may be reached, but to encourage and inspire those o f our husbands and fathers and sons who are under fire on a dozen fronts all over the world. It is my ‘earnest hope that every American will realize that in buying W ar Bonds in this Third W ar Loan he has an opportunity to express voluntarily and under the guidance o f his conscience, the extent to which he will "back the attack.” The American people supported well the first and second W ar Loan drives and in fact did even more than was asked o f them. Our need for money now is greater than ever, and will continue to grow until the very day that Victory is won; so we must ask far more sacrifice, far more cooperation than ever before.
