OFFICE OF STATE CHAIRMAN

Dear Friends of the University:

Less than two weeks ago we Americans underwent a great
emotional upsurge. Prayers for our boys went up instantaneously.
"Hitler's Fortress Europe is invaded by American troops", was
news flashed to us here. We would have done almost anything
THEN for their safety. We can do something about it NOW.

The 5th War Loan is upon us. The opening Big Gun will be
fired from the Haskell Stadium signaling the redl start of the
arive. Tuesday, June 20th, at 3 p.m. is the D Date and the
H Hour for the Bond Sale-and Auction at Haskell, Please be
there.

I am sending you a "Which Issue Shall I Buy" to aid you
in your selection. An additional blank for you to fill out
for your banker's convenience is herewith enclosed. If you
desire to give credit for this bond it will be necessary for
you to list your purchase with your solicitor. The banks will
keep no account of this. The main idea is to buy bonds.

From factory to fighting front in 45 days is the present
Army timetable for deliveries of the most neoded war materiale
"Enough" is not enough - - = more than enough is what our forces
must have. The more bonds bought, the more materials spent,
the fewer American lives will have to be spent.

"Only those are fit to live who are not afraid to die."

Bring Our Boys Back With Your Bonds.

Sincergly yours,
,
