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.
