Forward— together! 





FROM your country' s rich 

 mines, from fertile soil, 

 from uncut forest, American 

 Industry seeks raw materials 

 to fashion into the myriad 

 needs of modern life. 



But our industrial greatness 

 is only partly due to bountiful 

 nature. Unless men and 

 management, with hands 

 joined, are backed by invested 

 capital, the wheels of industry 

 will clog and halt. 



American Industry will 

 need added capital to produce 

 the foods and manufactured 

 goods which the world de- 

 mands. This forward move- 

 ment will mean a prospering 

 nation of full-time workers — 

 resulting in more profit for all. 



The needed money to 

 "carrv on" will be raised bv 



industrial bonds which will be 

 offered to the public. 



Such bonds are the safe 

 means by which the American 

 people, their principal care- 

 fully protected, share in the 

 earnings of American Indus- 

 try and, therefore, in Ameri- 

 can prosperity. 



If chosen under sound ad- 

 vice, these bonds are de- 

 pendable income-bearing 



promises to pay." Their 

 soundness is backed by the 

 actual properties themselves. 



A thorough, painstaking 

 analysis of each issue precedes 

 our offering of bonds to the 

 men and women of the 

 country. Our recommenda- 

 tions are at the free disposal 

 of everyone who has learned 

 the habit of saving money 

 and now wishes to put that 

 monev to work.
