UT of the war has come one bless- O ing— a lesson in thrift for mil- lions of those who never before had learned to save. Enrolled under the Payroll Savings Plan in thousands of factories, offices, and stores, over 27 million American wage earners were purchasing "E" Bonds alone at the rate of about 6 billion dollars worth a year by the time V-J Day arrived. With War Bond Savings automati- cally deducted from their wages every week, thrift was "painless" to these wage earners. At the end of the war, many who never before had bank ac- counts could scarcely believe the sav- ings they held. The moral was plain to most. Here was a new, easy way to save; one as well suited to the future as to the past. Result: Today, millions of Americans are continuing to buy, through their Payroll Savings Plan, not War Bonds, but their peacetime equivalent— U. S. Savings Bonds.

From war to peace! War Bonds are now Out of pay—into nest eggs! A wage earner New homes to own! Thousands of new known as U. S. Savings Bonds, bring the same can choose his own figure, have it deducted homes, like this, will be partially paid for high return—$25 for every $18.75 at maturity. regularly from earnings under Payroll through Bonds wisely accumulated during Savings Plan. the next five to ten years.

Moral: Join your Payroll Savings goods keeps your cost of living from rising. Plan next payday. Save automatically—regularly.
