THE .KIND OF RAISE WE ALL WANT!
FOR THEIR SECURITY
Out in the battle lines of land, sea and air, it is America's splendid
youth that is bearing the real brunt of this war. By its very nature
this war, above all others, demands the finest vigor of youth--youth
which, in normal times, seldom envisions its own eventual twilight.
There are so many long and dark moments, we know, in which these
boys, who probably never gave it such serious thought before, think of
their future--of the days and the years they are so gallantly winning.
The future must be made secure for them--that is the assignment of
those of us safely left at home.
Their future security, in the end, boils down individually to having
job: in our American way of life that is the essential as well as the
right. It is, then, of first importance that the National Association of
Manufacturers, representing the bulk of America's employers, has this
forthright plank in its recently adopted "Program For a Better America."
It reads:
"To achieve his own security, a man must have a productive Job,
and we have a program for creating such jobs through the increase of
capital equipment and the full cooperation of labor and management.
"If America moves tnto the postwar period under sound laws and
sound political and economic institutions, the American citizen who is
willing and able to work, or go into business, or otherwise serve his
country in a productive capacity, need have little fear of insecurity
during his productive years."

money had to cover.
When they took that part time
job, they learned that money does
not usually come easy in this
world. They commonly had toi
work fairly hard for rather low
pay. The experience taught them
manY things about the value of
money, and there was a good
chance that they would become
more prudent in asking for it and
using it.
Recent experiences in teaching
people the value of money have
been different, because of the very
high wages paid in many occupa-
tions. Many young people have
been able to earn more money
temporarily than their parents
could have earned a few years
ago. Such an experience is not
likely to teach them anything
about the value of money. They
may get the idea that wartime
ccnditions are likely to keep on
indefinitely, • and that they will
always be able to earn such high
pay.
The present employment oppor-
tunities give young people an un-
precedented chance to get a start
in the world. The chance of course
does not last long for the boys, as
the great majority of them will
have to quit when called for mili-
tary service. A host of boys and
girls are earning this good money
now, and they should be able to put
away the greater part of it for
future needs and development,
unless of course the needs of their
families should take part of these
funds. One wouid think that
nearly every money earning youth
could invest a considerable part of
his savings in war bonds.
The money earning youths should
not deprive themselves of needed
education, simply to get money. If
they show thrift in saving a good
part of their earnings, they have
learned a useful lesson on money
values.

AXIS SHORTAGES
As the war continues to cut down
axis-held territory and to grind up
axis manpower it is becoming in-
creasingly evident that the aggres-
sor nations have encountered fatal
shortages. Speaking broadly, the
European axis shortage is one
chiefly of morale and the Japan-
ese shortage is principally one
of weapons.
Weakness of axis morale in Eur-
ope can no longer be doubted. It
has appeared in Italian ranks all
along the line of fighting from
Ethiopia and Spain, Albania and
Greece, to Egypt and finally the
northeastern tip of Sicily. When
the Italian peninsula is penetrated,
preference of the Italian people to
fight wars under balconies will be
paramount in that nation's collapse.
Hungary, Rumania and Bulgaria
have become convinced that they l
are on the wrong side. Conquered
European nations continue to re-
sist conscription of workers, ac-
cording to reports. Morale of the
German people Ls not subject to
accurate appraisal, but their capa-
city for collspsing before over°
whelming odds is well known.
In the Pacific, although major
campaigns have not yet been ini-i
tiated by the Allies, the japanese
are alreadY showing unmistakable
signs of running out of air equip-
ment. At every air encounter with
the Americans the Japs lose heavily:
That points to a time when ~*'~

the Jap command indicating strong
dislike for major sea engagements.
Both of these weaknesses are
crucial for the enemy. They will
be written sooner or later into
total ax~s defeat. Faced by the
growing power and purpose of the
Allies, either low morale or in-
sufficient weapons will wreck the
enemy.
FITTING INTO ARMY LIFE
Very many men in the armed
services express themselves as en-I
joying military life. They cannotI
be expected to be happy in the]
horrible experiences of battle, orI
amid many discomforts of overseasI
service. Absence from their fam-
ilies is a trial, but they might like
the life of these services in ordinary
peace times. Many problems of
civilian life are solved for them by
the system under which they now
live, and many worries are escaped.
Among the men who do not take
easily to service life are those who
in ordinary times revolt at any
form of discipline. The men who
violate laws and regulations at
home can't be expected to like the
!firm control of the armed services.
There are also men who are ex-
cellent citizens, but who are very
alert to see defects in the condi-
tions around them. They usually
have ideas as to how these condi-
tions can be improved, and feel
dissatisfied if such steps are not
taken. With adequate training they
should make good officers. With-
out Such training, they see the
faults of'their surroundings, but
are not in a position to remove
these defects. They often chafe
under these conditions.
It is a great glft for people to
adapt themselves to the conditions
under which they live. The "old
pioneers had to do it. People who
work in rough and undeveloped
territory have to learn this flexible
spirit, and learn to live under hard
conditions and make the best of
tSem.
People learn to adjust themselves
to such things at home when they
rough it on camping trips. The
men come out best in the military
services if they can make the best
of whatever conditions they find,
ComplaLrflng over things that can't

full swing. And now is a good
time to address a word to the in-
dividual whose principal motive in
buying bonds is the attainment of
future financial security and a reg-
ular income from interest pay-
ments on the bonds. The trouble
wi%h this type of bond buyer is
that when further purchases be-
come inconvenient "and no longer
fit his "investment program" he
tends to keep his pocket buttoned.
He claims that he has done his
share. The time is long past for
this line of thinking.
Bonds today must be bought by
individuals in prodigious quantities.
Patriotism, not personal profit,
should compel their purchase. As
a matter of fact, if we mean what
we say in glowing tributes to free-
dom and our professed willingness
to make sacrifices to win the war
we should be glad to buy bonds
regardless of interest enticements.
Unless bond buying, in the last
analysis, is wholly dictated by the
urge to cast our lot so far as pos-
sible with the men at the front,
we can lay no claim to being
patriotic. Real patriots care not a J
whir for personal security or profit
when their nation is in peril.
Our freedom is in deadly peril
because too many people are work-
ing for time and a half instead
of for victory. The Fourth War
Loan Campaign is an opportunity
to turn over a new leaf. Buy
bonds for the sake of your country
--and forget yourself. If you do
this, you can justly call yourself a
true American.

ADVERTISING TONIC
Business is not a kind of per-
petual motion machine that runs
along indefinitely without anything
pushing it ahead. It needs some
motive power behind, or some kind i
of tonic force that shall bring in
new resources of strength. Adver-
tising is that kind of motive force
and tonic force. Business con-
cerns are always losing customers
because people die or move away
or get interested tn some compet-
ing concern's offerings.
Advertising is the power that
offsets all such losses, and does a
good deal more than that, by con-
stantly drawing in new trade. A
good advertising policy back of the
goods of a store brings in a con-
