Burning Of War Savings Stamps
Is Discouraged
"Think before you burn 'em" is,
in effect, the National War Saving
Committee's advice to patriotic
Canadians who destroy war sav-
ings certificates in the conviction
they are making an outright gift
to the war effort.
"Naturally, we have no quarrel
with those who feel they do not
want a return for their invest -
anent," (a committee spokesman
said, "but what we do want is to
point ant some other ways of help-
ing which are equally effective."
One such method would be for
purchasers to send their stamps
to the Minister of Finance. In this
way, the Government could check
on. the amounts required for re-
demptions—something they were
unable to do in the First Great
War.
The spokesman said the Govern-
ment had $5,000,000 set :aside for
redemption of thrift stamps pur-
chased in the last war. Some of
these stamps might be destroyed
but the money had to kept in re-.
serve—just in case.
"If the Government knew these
stamps were destroyed 'it would be
possible to shift the money lute
more useful channels," be said.
Another good plan would be tc'
turn the stamps over to friends
who had not already started pur-
chasing war savings certificates, .
enlisting fresh "savers" for the
cause.
Or, he said, Canadians might do
as one Toronto club had done and
donate the certificates to poor
children. Last reports indicated
these children had boosted their
Initial "stake" of $100 worth of
stamps to $1,700.
