STRENGTHEN AMERICA’S PEACE POWER What is Peace Power? It’s industrial and military strength, of course. But that s not all. Peace Power is also the 345,445 young Americans who will get degrees this year... each armed with knowledge to work for lasting peace. And you. You too, are America’s Peace Power. First, because you want peace. And then, because you back your wanting with money. Peace costs money. Money for strength to keep the peace. Money for science and education to help make peace lasting. And money saved by individuals. Your Savings Bonds, as a direct investment in your country, make you a Partner in strengthening America’s Peace Power. The more Bonds you buy, the stronger we are! BUY U.S. SAVINGS BONDS The U.S. Government does not pay for this advertising. The Treasury Department thanks, for their patriotic donation, the Advertising Council plant. The program would cost about a million dollars and would also call for an in crease in charges for service. Now it has been decided that anticipated revenue, even with increased charges, would not be sufficient for some time. A great deal of current receipts it was said, are now going to retire bonds already obligated in earlier expansion programs.

'Georgia Industry Week' Planned for May 19-26 ATLANTA — Dynamic, diversivied Georgia in dustry will be saluted during the week of May 19-26. In part, Governor Griffin’s proclamation setting aside these dates as “Georgia Industry Week” said: “Whereas: The rapid expan sion of industry in Georgia during recent years has play ed a maximum role in assur ing prosperity for our citizens, and Whereas: Georgia industry provides jobs for our workers and serves as a major source of income for the people of our state, and Whereas: We believe that the citizens of this great State should develop an in creased appreciation of the quantity and quality of Geor gia-made products. . . Georgia’s healthy industrial growth is credited with soft ening the effects of the current national recession on Georgia citizens. Not many Georgians realize it, but a Georgian can buy quality merchandise pro duced by quality craftsmen all made in Georgia. He may build his home and furnish it, feed and cloth a family; enjoy all the luxuries .of a good life using nothing but Georgia products. Over .700 different in dustries flourish in the state and the list is growing each year. Rep. John D.
