It was callftil upon to conirib-

by coeitributing ov. r 5150,000,•

tttade plain that the Ameri

prosemta this war to a suc
cessful conclusion at any
cost. ’* . ^
The hardest task is before

is depending upon the sale of
two billion dollars worth of
War Savings Stamps during
this year, andwf thlr, amount:

greater inveXjnent than- we
were Called upon to make in

combined Tho .goverimjent
has designated the*montuM
June as t>e period for sefur.-
krg dehtiite pledges for these
purchases during the'^jaiam e
of the year, with a fair pro
portion of actual purchases,
during that month. •
‘We have been associating
