From
three employees on up. Size has nothing to do with it. It works
equally well in stores, schools, publishing houses, factories, or
banks. This whole idea of pay·roll allotment has been evolved
by businessmen in cooperation with the Treasury Departme~t.
Each organization adopts its own simple, efficient application
of the idea in accordance with the needs of its own set.up
No chore at all. The system is so simple that A. T. & T.
uses exactly the same easy card system that is being used by
hundreds of companies having fewer than 25 employees! It is
simple enough to be handled by a check·mark on a card each
pay day.

defend America today
This is no charity plea. It i$ a sound business proposition that
vitally concerns the' present and (uture welfare of your company,
your employees, and yourself.
During the post·war period of readjustment, you may be faced
with the unpleasant necessity of turning employees out into a
confused and cheerless world. But you, as an employer, can do
something now to help shape the destinies of your people.
Scores of business heads have adopted the Voluntary Pay.roll
Allotment Plan as a simple and easy way for every worker in
the land to start a systematic and continuous Defense Bond
savings program.
Many benefits • •• present and future. It is
more than a sensible step toward reducing the ranks of the
post·war needy. It will help spread financial participation in
National Defense among all of America's wage earners.
The widespread use of this plan will materially retard infla·
tion. It will "store" part of our pyramiding national income
that would otherwise be spent as fast as it's earned, increasing
the demand for our diminishing supply of consumer goods.
And don't overlook the immediate benefit • • • money for
defense materials, quickly, continuously, willingly.
Let's do it the American way!
America's talent for
working out emergency problems, democratically, is being
tested today. As always, we will work it out, without pressure
or coercion • • • in that old American way; each businessman
strengthening his own house; not waiting for his neighbor to do
it. That custom has, throughout history, enabled America to
get things done of its own free will.
Plenty of help available. Although this is your plan
when you put it into effect, the Treasury Department is ready
and willing to give you all kinds of help. Local civilian com-
mittees in 48 States are set up to have experienced men work
with you just as much as you want them to, and no more.
Truly, about all you have to do is to indicate your willingness
to get your organization started. We will supply most of the
necessary material, and no end of help.

REVIEW
The first step is to take a closer look.

Sending in
the coupon in no way obligates you to 'install the Plan. It will
simply give you a chance to scrutinize the available material and
see what other companies are already doing. . It will bring you
samples of literature explaining the benefits to employees and
describing the various denominations of Defen se Savings Bonds
that can be purchased through the Plan.
Sending the coupon does nothing more than signify that you
are anxious to do something to help keep your people off relief
when defense production sloughs off; something to enable all
wage earners to participate in financing Defense; something to
provide tomorrow's buying power for your prod-
ucts; something to get money right now for guns
and tanks and planes and ships.
France left it to "hit·or-miss" .•• and missed.
Now is the time for you to act! Mail the coupon
or write Treasury Department, Section A, 709
Twelfth St. NW., Washington, D. C.
In emer,gencies, America doesn't do things
"hit-or-miss." We would get there eventually if we
just left it to everybody's whim to buy Defense Bonds when they
thought of it. But we're a nation of businessmen who under-
stand that the way to get a thing done is to systematize the oper-
ation. That is why so many employers are getting back of this
Voluntary Savings Plan.
Like most efficient systems, it is amazingly simple. All you
have to do is offer your employees the convenience of having
a fixed sum allotted, from each pay envelope, to the purchase of
Defense Bonds. The employer holds these funds in a separate
bank account, and delivers a Bond to the employee each time
his allotments accumulate to a sufficient amount.
Each employee who chooses to start this savings plan decides
for himself the denomination of the Bonds to be purchased and
the amount to be allotted from his wages each pay day.
