Ike, at desk, speaking, SOF: “In moments of crisis involving the safety of our native land, the American people have invariably rallied against the danger w/ courage, faith & resolution. For more than two years we have been in one of these crises, perhaps the greatest of our history. On the battlefield, & on the homefront, men & women are daily making great sacrifices so that freedom & our way of life may be preserved. There is now in progress now the 5th War Loan Drive to raise money so as to ensure that this conflict will be brought to the speediest possible conclusion & with the least loss in lives. Complete success in that drive will meet the acclaim of the forces in the field & wlll be renewed proof that all Americans are one solid phalanx of determination in this great war. All of us profoundly trust that soon this world will be restored to a just peace. Until we can, w/ God’s help, bring about that happy realization of our hopes, each of us must seek for ways & means by which the value of services to our country may be increased. For the moment we can do so by buying bonds. Let’s make this particular victory a quick & overwhelming one.”
