V'HIS YEAR, hundreds of thousands of Canadians will risk their ALL for victory. This is "attack" year. Trained and ready for the sacrifice, our fighting men will pull no punches. How about YOU? These men going into battle DEMAND nothing of you. But they know how much depends upon those dollars you earned in jobs that have no risks like theirs. Are you going to pull YOUR punches—NON? Maybe you've bought Victory Bonds till it hurt—in preparation for the attack. You did a good job there. But attack is still more costly than preparation. MORE Canadians buying MORE Victory Bonds that is the price asked of those at home for the drive to victory in this year of attack. When so many LIVES are being dedicated to victory, are you preparing to dedicate your DOLLARS to the same end? nos zsorrAcieyeAR- roe ARE NEEDED se -4 NATIONAL WAS. IlINANCE C01.11.1eiliTEE
