Dallas, Texas, November 10,1944

To Qualified Issuing Agents
of War Savings Bonds, Series E :
There is enclosed the text of a message which Secretary of the Treasury
Morgenthau wishes to be delivered to all purchasers of Series E War Sav­
ings bonds during the Sixth War Loan drive. The Treasury has requested
that issuing agents deliver a copy of the message to the purchaser of each
Series E bond issued by them during the drive, whether delivery is made by
mail or over the counter, and that they continue the procedure after the
drive until the supply is exhausted.
An adequate supply of the pieces will be forwarded to each issuing agent
upon return of the enclosed postal card showing an estimate of the number
of bonds the agent expects to issue during the Sixth War Loan drive.
It will be greatly appreciated if issuing agents in this district will give
the Treasury their full support and cooperation in this appeal to owners to
hold their bonds and not redeem them except to meet emergencies.

Yours very truly,
R. R. GILBERT
President

This War Bond is evidence o f your determination to back our
fighting men for an early victory.

It also represents your financial security and your postwar prosperity.
Don’t cash this bond except in an emergency.
Before you cash this bond, ask yourself: “ Is the emergency so great
that I must reduce my support and withdraw these dollars from the
battle to win the war— and the peace?’ ’
You gain and your country gains when this bond is not cashed before
maturity.
