Vuch results.
To save 3',4 times as much as
ever we have before is quite possi-
ble, but would mean actual hard-
ship for millions of our people.
The most sensible solution of the
roblctn is to aim at a combination
production and self-denial which
{will llnd us at the end of a year
«t least .'1 1 times wealthier as a
nation, tha ever I :ore.
The method indicated has been fol-
lowed by our Allies with results that
|have astonished the world. After
years of physical and financial
strain, England raised recently a
loan of G Million Dollars, equivalent
to Ten Billion Dollars in this Coun-
try, owing to the fact that we havo
about double llio population. Eng-
land '- s speeded up her production
of w ;th, denied herself so much,
that d <i>ite the fact that millions of
her finest specimens of human ma-
terial are lighting, despite the fact
that she had raised previously about
a like amount of 5 Pillion Dollars in
loans, and is paying 2'v llllliou Pol

In a H0 day campaign.
Germany Is speeding up her pro-
duction along the most scientific
lines, and Is starving herself. That
is the %sole reason Germany exists
today.
Are we super-raea that we can do
things differently to others?
Let us forget this talk of "Uncle
Sam soon cleaning up the Germans j
when he pets there." The Germans'
will not be "cleaned up" by talk, or '
even by bravery alone. They must
be fought with their own weapons,
hard work and self-denial the J
things that win wars.
