—WONT YOU GET IN THE SCRAP?
You know Marty, or one of the millions like him fighting
for Uncle Sam. You know what he’s already given up—and
what he’s tvilling to give up —to keep America free! And
you know that his chances of getting back depend upon
America’s ability to give him what it takes to win!
America’s newspapers are out to see that Marly and the
rest don’t get caught short. They've taken over the task of
urging everybody to get in the scrap. Our hat is off to them
and the salvage committees, because every ounce of metal,
rubber and rags is needed and needed now to make ships,
planes, tanks and guns. This is the time to dig in and
honestly and truly get in the scrap
