roll savings along with per-

struggle will be long and cost-
ly. Savings Bonds fit into the
survival plans by aiding in fi-
nancing the fight for freedom

icans.

statement regarding this
drive. "Many Americans to-
day are sincerely wondering
what they can do to defend
and preserve freedom. They
wish to contribute to our de-
fense efforts, to our adven-
tures In space, and to streng-
Ihenlng our free Institutions
