448 Cornell Alumni News o help increase "Take-Home Savings"

THE Treasury Department has published two new booklets to help you and your employees realize the utmost benefit from your Payroll Savings Plan—benefits proportioned to the extent your employees add to "take home savings" by buying and holding U. S. Savings Bonds. "Peacetime Payroll Savings Plan" for key executives oίfers helpful suggestions on the conduct of the Payroll Savings Plan. In addition, it quotes leaders of Industry and Labor and their reasons for supporting the Plan. "This Time It's For You" is for distribution to employees. It explains graphically how this convenient, easy thrift habit works. It suggest goals to save for and how much to set aside regularly in order to attain their ob- jectives. If you have not received these two booklets, or desire additional quantities, communicate with your State Director of the Treasury De- partment's Savings Bond Division. See your Payroll Savings Plan through to maintain your share in America's future. It is sound economics and a powerful force for good today—and tomorrow—as a safeguard for stability and a reserve of fu- ture purchasing power—money that is kept within your community.

The Treasury Department acknowledges with appreciation the publication of this message by
