some of the things every man

They' won't be his,. unless all of

To protect his dollar, we must

inflation!
Prices will rise. As prices go
up, wages try to tag along.:. and
never quite catch up. The value of
money goes down. Soon your
dollar will buy—perhaps only 30c
worth of goods! And there is no
limit to its drop—look at Greece
today! The nation is plunged in
poverty and depression.
So let's ` all tn.ake 'sure our
soldier's dollar—when he gets -
back—will buy a dollar's worthof
goods! We c'an't give back to .

youth. But, ,if we keep up the
