For' on the attack, war materials just seem to melt away. The consumption of the supplies you are making is going on at an unbelievable rate -hasten- ing the day of Victory and Peace. This means that the production of war supplies must go ever faster. It also means that the cost of the war is becoming greater. A great deal of these two responsibilities must be carried by war workers like yourself. Only you can maintain and increase the flow of essential war materials, And you, in common with every loyal citizen of Canada, can help finance the increasing' cost of the attack, Your purchase of Victory Bonds is an essential part of the Allied war strategy. Bonds are intended to be purchased by anyone. They are not reserved for financiers, merchants, bankers or people of wealth only: You and I, and all of us can and should own Victory Bonds. The fourth Victory Loan will open soon, The mil- lions of workers employed in Industry—war and otherwise—are counted upon to loan a definite part of the amount required in the biggest loan yet asked of the Canadian people. To reach it, more men and women and children must become bond purchasers, and it will be necessary for those who have purchased bonds in previous loans to buy more bonds. When your fellow worker calls on you to buy Victory Bonds BE READ'('. Give him two orders. One for cash, and the other for the very limit that you can buy out of earnings, on the Payroll Savings Plan. Plan now to do your part to sustain the attack! NATIONAL WAR FINANCE COMMITTEE 19.4
