NATIONAL WAR FINANCE COMWmE & r■ ■•V ■ £ in “An army can move only as fast as its supplies.” That truth is well established. Engineers and infantry ’ need artillery support. All need ammunition . . . food . ♦ and they need moral support . . . proof that we, at home, are doing all we can to back them up. Attack wins objectives. Support wins War§. And that is where we, on the home front, fit into the war programme. We must furnish support. We must buy more Victory Bonds. Bear in mind that part of the money which Victory Bonds provide is used to buy foods which Canadian farmers produce and which is needed to feed our fighters and the fighting forces of our allies. Victory Bonds are a good investment..; the safest place that you can put your savings. You should buy them to have money for things you want to do when the war ends. (In case of emergency you can get cash for them.) All the money you invest in Victory Bonds comes back to you eventually. Mean­ time your bonds earn 3% interest, Your banker will tell you it’s good’ business to put your savings into Victory Bonds.
