Why The Help of Every Employer Is Needed

FIRST — Because Canada is at war —a war for survival a: s nation. To carry on this war requires a tremendous production of the sinews

oi war.

SECCIIII — Because we must not allow our productive capacity t: be diverted iron our war eiiurt by unnecessary spending.

Tllllili — Because to the greatest possible extent, empioyeestnusl be protected against upsetting post-war readiustments.

Remember, War Savings NOW, will provide a vast backlog of purchasing powa lor ordinary commodities when the inevitable period oi post-war readjustment arrives.

To the extent that savings from pdy envelopes are mobilized, there will be a curb “upon inflation. Ti employees spend crll of their earnings as iast as they gel them, there will be rising prices. inﬂation and the evils that iollow.

How Employers Can Help

Experience shows that the easiest and must convenient way for your employee: to m: ls by a War Savings Payroll Plan. W: ask you as an anployar- whether you have 5 employees or 25,000-le lnstal such a Payroll Plan; and to see that It is earrletl out effectively for the duration of the war.

5e that employee: will understand the need lor saving we shall lend you at inter- val: lmull bulletins lo put in pay envelopes, and shall publish advertisement: ire- quiently in the press giving reasons lor savings, telling where the money goes, and how loving: vitally criiecl our war eliozt. Factory posters will be supplied al infor- vula. Honour Boll Certiﬁcates will be awarded lor achieving 757. to 100% oi parli- cipulion by permanent employees. The necessity lor regular saving will be constant- ly impressed upon every man, woman and child in the counlrY-

Why You Should Save and Irene! To You: Country

FIRST, because you are helping to build plane: and skip: — to furnish gun: anti ammunition.

SECOND, because you are building a cash reesrv: lur yourself — for your family —- for the "after the war" porloll.

Tlilllll, because every dollar you spend unnecessarily may lake people and machines away from war production and thus help the enemy.

You may ask: “What about the big fellows, what are they doing? What are you gei- iing from them?" Be assured that the "govemmeni is going after the big money, and getting it. Employers, executives, and wealthy people will lell you that. Bul, in addi- tion to the big money. you wage and salary earner: must lend Canada $10,000,000 every month.

To buy 25c Wcir Savings Stamps is good; they have their place. Sixteen o! these‘ buy a War Savings Certiﬁcate. Bul employees must save in dollars. Slump: alone will not bring $10,000,000 a month.

No one need go without actual necessities to save, but we urge you not To Buy,’

things which compete for labour and materials with war production,

Save Every Dollar You Can-Lend It To Canada

There’: that other vital reason lor saving. 'When this war enda, there will b: a period oi readiustment. Men who now have good jobs may suddenly ﬁnd themselves out oi work or on short lime. Let us hope not. But i! you have a substantial sum in War Savings Certiﬁcates (accumulated while the war is on), you will be able to “stand the gall" when industry is changing from a War to t: peace time basis. You will b0 elemally glad THEN that you have saved money NOW.

We have senl to every employer the message you see alongside. When your em- ployer dsk: you to start saving, or to increase-your present savings, co-operczl: with him.

The following table represents an average basis of saving for a group of employees. These ﬁgures are only illustrative, oi course, as the amount of saving which is possible

will vary according in each lniiiviiluais iamiiy and other economic circumstances.
