YOU KNOW IT’S TRUE BECAUSE IT*S HAPPENED TO YOU
AND YOUR FRIENDS AND NEIGHBORS
PROBABLY you’vk never thought of
yourself as a maker of history.
But you are. And here is how you, as
a citizen of the United States, are
creating the greatest success in all
history.
Remember back in 1941 when the
Defense Bonds you were Buying sud
denly had to become War Bonds? How
you and your neighbors pitched in to
buy them in ever-increasing numbers,
to hack our fighting men and to help
achieve the victory of World War II?
After V-J Day, when those bonds
became Savings Bonds, you continued
to buy them because you had learned
how regular saving could build secu
rity and contentment for yourself and
those you love.
The face of the land has undergone
some dramatic changes in those years
since V-J Day. I\ow the landscape is
dotted with new homes that Savings
Bonds built. Thousands upon thou
sands of new automobiles travel the
highways—Savings Bonds cars, bought
with the product of individual thrift.
Qo the farms, Bond-purchased equip
-- —_
ment has helped produce bumper crops
and prosperous years. Everywhere in
America, man’s urge to get into busi
ness for himself has become ft bright
reality. So has the ambition of loving
parents to send their children through
college. Time and time again, Savings
Bonds have made those dreams and
many others come true.
You KNOW they've come true, be
cause it's happened to you or to
some of your oum friends.
And this is only the beginning of the
story. Even after accomplishing so
much, millions of American families
still enjoy the financial security of
owning more than fifty billion dollars—
fifty thousand million dollars in
Savings Bonds. More than at the peak
of war-time Bond holdings 1
How much money is that? It’s enough
to build a new $10,000 mortgage-free
home for every family in San Francisco
—and Sacramento—and Salt Lake
City—and Denver—and Kansas City—
and St Louis—and Indianapolis—and
Cincinnati—and Pittsburgh—and
New York Gty—and the whole slate ^
of Texas!
And every week, everywhere in Amer
ica, new millions of dollars are
added to the total—as crisp new
'Savings Bonds are typed up with your
name on them.
Kind of a king-size success story, isn’t
it? Your success story because you
and the millions of your neighbors are
living it right now. Your own faith in
America—your own desire for the
warmth of family security and in
dependence—have made the story
of United States Savings Bonds
the thrift miracle of all time.
