AGAINST the cunning of the saboteur is matched the
k greater cunning of cur military and civil law en
forcement agencies. Every minute, day and night, the
relentless hunt for enemy agents goes on.
But Axis agents are not our only enemies here at
home. Equally destructive are those who, posing as
reputable business men, are every day sabotaging our
industries, undermining morals, jeopardizing htarties.
When such offenders are found in Georgias $10,000,000

First, a clean-up warning from this Committee; then,
unless the warning is heeded, a close-up order by law

SOLDIER'S time Is not his own. Every minute
of furlough means a lot to him and to his morale.
He's away from home and his dear ones and the few
hours he gets "in town" mean much to give him a
"lift" in spirit and fighting ability. With the service
man, every minute counts and when he must report
back at a certain time—lt means just that, not one
minute later.
When granted a furlough, these men turn naturally
to Greyhound because schedules are frequent and
well-timed ... no long waits that waste precious
hours. Greyhound buses operate right up to most
military post gates, saving time, money, and incon
venience. Greyhound gives preference to military
men In boarding buses because it is vital for them
to report to duty on time. Many of them are chang
ing posts, or reporting to duty for the first time and
It Is a national expediency that these men be given
the fastest means of transportation FIRST. Civilian
needs must be secondary. Remember, those boys are
in there fighting for you and me.
Yes, ooth the military and civilian armies prefer Grey
hound . . . and Greyhound is bonding every effort
humanly possible to serve them both.
