Show FIGHTING TANKS FOR FIGHTING TOWNS The ten cities of the Twelfth Federal Reserve District which most-evince the American fighting spirit in the Fourth Liberty Loan drive are to have tanks in action on the battle front-named after them. This badge of honor has been definitely agreed to by the War Department at the request of Secretary McAdoo, as head of the Fourth Liberty Loan Campaign, it is announced by George A. Van Smith, director of publicity for the Twelfth Federal Fed-eral Reserve District. , It means that each of the ten cities of the West which most signally distinguish themselves in oversubscribing their quotas of the Fourth Liberty Loan will have its name carried through the Hun ranks as a tank smashes its way across the trenches. No more effective means could have been devised to carry to the men at the front the message that America is backing them up to the limit. To have its name printed on the sides of one of these fighting monsters, under such restrictions, should be a high reward for the patriotic efforts of any community. Do your share. Buy your last dollar's worth. Don't nuke excuses. Make sacrifices. . |
