SAVE FOR STABILITY
The sixth series of Canada Savings Bonds goes on sale
Monday, October 13th. This series is part of the Govern-
ment's plan to encourage personal saving as an important
and constructive influence in helping; stabilize our economy
at this time.
Individual family savings is of vital importance to the
welfare_, not only of the community, but the country as a
whole. Savings is one weapon with which we can fight
hack against the old ogre of inflation.
The money that is put into these Savings Bonds will be
used partly to finance this country's defence program and
that is of vital concern to us all. Dollars invested in Can-
ada Savings Bonds today inay prevent Russia from at-
tempting aggression tomorrow.
Canadians are confirmed savers, despite the pressure
of high prices and high taxes. Proof of this is shown by the
fact that last Year over 900,000 Canadians made average
purchases of $395 worth of Canada Savings Bonds. Canad-
ians also hold approximately seven million savings ac-
ccAints in banks. The average amount of life insurance in l
force in 19-t was $8)3 per capita. in 1950 it had risen to COMMOTION OVER A DATE
