in fhis "77. billion-o-yecr" success?

NIEVER was there a partnership like the nation-wide brotherhood of vol- I .| unteers who have helped sell, advertise, and promote U. S. Savings Bonds! Their program is the greatest sales operation at the lowest cost in history. Last year sales of Savings Bonds were 7l btllion doll*s-erceeding redemptions by oaer a billion dollars.

Retailers merit a major share of the credit for this splendid achievement, for during 1946 retail stores donated 4l.3lo of all sponsored ads on E Bonds. Their work has been a powerful tool in building security for the narion et large and for millions of Bond-holders individually.

Now the important thing is to keep up the good work. Ffere are two ways: ( 1) Devote a generous portion of your advertising schedule to the "Buy Where You Bank" plan, explained in the box. (2) Build up your Payroll Savings Plan. No. I brings your store good-will. No. 2 bring;s a feeling of exra security to your employees, enables them to be happier, better workers. And botb steps build future buying power-future securiry -for your store, your community, and your country. Every $3 put into Savings Bonds pays $4 at maturity.

BEGINNING in June the Treasury Departrnent and the banks of America will make it possiblefor people not on the Payroll Savingp Plan to purchase Bonds monthly on an "automadc" arrangement with their banks.This progrem is intended for selfemployed people and others to whom the advantages of Payroll Savings are not available.

Support this new campaign by devoting some of your advertising space to the '.Buy Where You Bank" plan.
