4'I realize that
Canada now calls on me ... to join in a great
National Savings Platt ... necessary to win the war and vital to my
own safety.
-that the gallant inen of the Artny,,' Navy and Air Force .
now on the fighting front. . need me on the financial 'front. They
need munitions, material and equipment ... and only by my money
which represents the production of war materials can this support be
secured. They are my protectors. They call otime to be their provider.
-that this will require hard work and many dollars.
-that only by hard work and frugal living ... by LENDING
all I can to Canada . . . can I do my part to help to win the war and
establish our future security.
1 Pledge- that I will forego the purchase of unnecessary artides
. . . however small the cost. • . no matter how well I am able to pay
for them .. . which take labour and materials away from the great task
of providing goods needed to win the war.
