VICTORY LOAN
BONDS PROVE
SOUND ECONOMY
By TED R. GAMBLE
National Director, War Finanee
Division, U. S. Treasury
The Victory Loan, now under way,
is the crucial test of our war finance
program. We must not only raise
the SlKbillion required by the Treas-
ury but we must do it in such a man
ner as to avoid the danger of infla
tion and to make secure the Peace
for which over a quarter of a mil
lion of our men have given their
lives. That is why we are asking
for $4 billion from individuals, $2
billion of it from the sale of Series
E bonds.
Why is this money needed? Brief
ly, the reasons may be summarized
as follows: to bring
our veterans home!
and give them their
mustering-out pay,
to maintain our
armies of occupa
tion, to take care of
our sick and wound-
ed veterans, to
make prompt set
tlement of our can
celled war con
tracts, and for oth
er neces. ary gov
ernment expendi
tures during the next few months.
The Budget Bureau recently esti
mated total Federal Expenditures
for the 1946 fiscal year at $66.4 bil
lion, or $33.7 billion below 1945. Re
ceipts were estimated at $36 billion,
but these may be reduced somewhat
by the new tax bill. This leaves a
deficit of $30.4 billion, which must be
met by Treasury borrowing. It .is
in order to help meet this deficit that a check list, or planning chart,
the Treasury decided on the Victory which farmers say is of great help
Loan, the last big public drive for *) them in increasing efficiency ofi

billion net of the $207 billion it had ce ™ b f r ^ er . pl i bli
to borrow since May 1, 1941, the bal
ance of $85 billion being absorbed by ,
commercial Federal Reserve banks,
most of it in open market purchases.
Except for the investment of a lim-,!
ited portion of their savings depos
its, we have not permitted the banks
to subscribe directly to war loan
securities in the last five war bond
drives, nor in the current Victory
Loan.
One of the most
achievements of our program is the
widespread distribution of the public
debt. Millions of people who never
before saved a penny in t^ir lives,
now own savings bonds, jit is esti
mated that three-quarton|i. of the'
Series E bonds sold to individuals
were acquired by persons earning
$5000 a year or less. Today, indi-,
viduals hold almost one-fourth of the '
total Federal debt outstanding. An
evfen larger proportipn of the inter
est paid out on this debt will go to
individuals. Obviously, -this will
have a tremendous impact on post
war purchasing power.
Investing in Victory Bonds will
build a second economy for the fu
ture. We cannot afford to slump
back into indifference and selfishness
if we are to keep faith with those
who have paid njost dearly .so that
we could live in a free and peaceful
world. We can and should buy Vic
tory Bonds to the limit of our ability
if for no other reason than to ex
press our gratitude to our fighting
men. They have done their job, and
have done it well. It is up to us to
finish ours, so that they may £ome
back to the kind of an America they
dreamed about—a land of opportu
nity with full employment, full pro
duction and high income. The Vic
tory Loan Is our opportunity to ax-
again our faith in Amencii.

The magic of the mind it imagination. Imagination trans
formed America from a wilderness to the greatest indus
trial and agricultural power on earth. Imagination—plus
courage and determination beat the Germans and the Japs.
Imagination will help win the peace, too. For winning
the peace can be summed up in one word, prosperity! Yea.
prosperity for all aqd prosperity means jobs. Who makes
jobs? y .
They comi from American enterprise. And the Tele
phone Company is proud to be a part of that erfterprisc.
Because thrilling days lie ahead—big days that mean
future prosperity for South Carolinians.
The 2,320 men and women of the Telephone Company
in South Carolina are now putting into effect the greatest
expansion program in tbeir history in this state, calling
for an expenditure of millions of dollars. Their imagina
tion did not go to sleep during the war years. It remained
awake at the drawing board.
Blue prints are leaping to life with telephones for all
who have been waiting for them, just as fast as we can
secure the equipment. This is one of our top jobs! Tele-
for our farmer and rural friends are also being
^4 swiftly scheduled. A greatly expanded long distance
vseivice is in process, too. It wiH jnclude the installation
of coaxial cables so we can handle more calls with greater
speed and convenience for you. and provide more facili
ties for television. A lot of construction is to.be done
and a new service to motor vehicles is also in the offing.
What does it all mean? For one thing, it means a con-,
tinuation of the pleasant, progressive .partnership of the
people of South Carolina and the people of the Telephone
Company. Telephone folks are happy to be a part of
this vast program that will lend so much impetus to the
state’s own industrial and agricultural expansion plans.
As we see it, the future beckon* South Carolina with a
busy, prosperous hand! j-
