LISTEN, NEVADA CITY!
Listen for the Victory ring of today’s Minute Man sometime during this week.
When you answer the doorbell give the Minute Man a
minute to sign your pledge to buy War Savings. Bonds or
Stamps regularly every payday until the enemy is subjugated.
Following the example of the Minute Men of Concord
and Lexington in 1775, thousands of modern Victory Men
and Women of California are organizing to do their bit in the
statewide Pledge Victory campaign that began yesterday and
ends on Memorial Day. :
“This campaign to obtain solemn pledges of the citizens
of California, . believe is as important as the determination of
our workers and farmers for all out production and of or
military organizations to maintain our lines of offense and
communication,” declares War Savings Chairman Mrs. Paul
Kemper. ‘The first line of victory is on the home front, and
the first line on the home front is dollars to get the raw materjals and convert them into utensils of war.”
California has been assigned a quota of $40,0] 1,100 for
the wish of the Treasury Department to sell at least a billion
dollars worth of War Bonds nationally every month. The
national total quota for May is $600,000,000. *
Emulating the “Midnight Ride of Paul Revere,” today's
Minute Men will visit every home in the state to “raise the
alarm” in asking every man, woman and child to sign a solemn pledge to purchase War Bonds or Stamps at stated intervals out of current income. The pledge is not a contract, it is
a promise to invest .a stated amount in the nation so that victory can be won. All the information will be held in strictest
confidence and for every $75 invested the government will
_yeturn $100 upon the maturity of the War Bond. The pledges
will permit the government to estimate as accurately as possible its future funds from voluntary investment.
The widespread objective of the Minute Men Mrs. Kemper explained, is threefold.
First, to make every man, woman and child a shareholder in America. Second, to raise money through voluntary purchase of War Bonds and Stamps to help meet the cost of total
war, and third, this money lent the government is taken out of
competition for consumer goods, thereby preventing inflation
and building up a cushion of savings for the individual when
victory is won—for if there is no victory there will be no FreeAmerica. i.
“Give the Victory Minute Men a minute when he calls
on you,” urges Mrs. Kemper. “You can help him by staying
home during the week of May 24 until ydéu ‘have given him a
minute.”
} RED CROSS IS 61 .
Last week was the 61st birthday of both an organization
and an ideal, and never in the intervening period have the two
lost touch with each other.

for the soldiers at the front, their loved ones at home and the
disaster-stricken wherever they may be—just as it did in the,

HUSH! S-SHUSH!
News in Rhyme over KJBS
Written by Harley M. Leete, Jr.
Perhaps you do or don’t like quiet,
Or have never had a-chance to try it.
Well—a quiet «spell will be here
soon— ;
From the last of May, ‘till the
tenth of June.
That’s National Noise Abatement
Week;
Noises formerly harsh must sound
more meek.
Less noise is now.a war time ‘‘must’’;
Not because your ears are going to
bust,
But Yecause efficiency falls low,
When ears are assaulted by too loud
a blow.
A janglingbedlam only serves,
To prey upon the workers’ nerves.~
The decibel curve has got to drop,
And needless noise must presently
stop.
Car horns were once the worst
offender,
Whether honked by a borrower or a
lender;
Let’s neither borrowers nor hankers
be,
Nor go wpon a raucous spree.
Some sounds, of course, delight the
ear,
While others make one leap with
fear.
While we’re reforming sounds
and such,
Heres a thing we'd all like much.
The alarm clock has a nasty ring,
In fact, it’s really an odious thing.
Every morning with fiendish yell,
It lets go a blast on a hard steel
bell. :
If noise abatement can forge ahead,
And devise a new way to get us from
bed,
‘We'd all be grateful, heart and soul,
If a clock could play a pleasanter
role.
Frankly, we welcome this hush-hush
plan,
And we’ll help as quietly as ‘we can.
So if this thought should get
* around,
Let it circulate sans too much
sound. ?
Let’s welcome in the week of hush,
With the official password—
sh—sh—shush!

Have you ever thought how much

an awful lot of nice things a fellow
could do with a million dollars ..
if he had it. A million dollars is a
lot of money.

Just think .. it would take
about three weeks, counting as fast
as you could 24 hours a day, just
to count up to a million.
I read in the paper the other
day that the beer industry pays
more than a million dollars a day
in taxes ... Federal, State and
local. Every day .. more than a
’ million dollars,
I guess the government is glad
to-get:that-help.these-days,

with a war to win and pay for.

* Of course, not all of that beer tax
money goes to the Federal government. Quite a lot of it goes to the
States and is used for such useful
purposes as public-health, emergency relief, old age assistance,
education and public welfare.
Farmers surely ought to like the
beer industry, too, from what I

hear. Last year the brewers bought
nearly two billion pounds of barley malt and nearly half a billion
pounds of corn and corn products.
And plenty of rice and hops, too.
That’s a lot-of farm products.
Back around ’33 and ’34, when the
tough old depression was hitting
all of us pretty hard, farmers were
certainly glad to sell those extra
crops that beer bought from them.
And come-to-think of it, when beer
came back it made lots of new jobs
for plenty of other people, too. City
folks and country folks both.

If I hadn’t gone in for this writing business, I think I’d like to
have tried my hand at the brewing _
I'd like to be making a fine tasting beverage that helps the public
treasuries so much and that people
ean rightly call the “beverage of
moderation.” That moderation incidentally is another of the fine ,
things about beer.
