THE OLD JUDGE SAYS...
h n h n h n
h
“When this war is all over, Judge, there will
be some mighty interesting books written
about it. Expect we’ll learn a lot of things
we didn’t know before.” *
“Yes, Fred, when the record is finally
written we’ll realize what a gigantic
operation this war really was and how
important to final victory many factors
reallv were.”
“Take, for example, just one industry.
Few people realize the importance of the
great work done by the beverage distillers
during the war. A high government official
called it ‘an almost unparalleled example of
the overnight conversion of an entire indus-
try from peace to war.’ He also said not so
many months ago, while speaking about syn-
thetic rubber, ‘It is fair to regard the rubber
manufactured to date as being almost solely
the product of the beverage distilling indus-
try.’ That’s the type of thing 1 have m mind
.. the way great American industries at
home cooperated to help our brave fighting
men abroad.”
“1 see what you mean, Judge...a com-
plete history of American teamwork.” t

EAMWORK
IS HASTENING VICTORY
On every battlefront, the*unbeatable teamwork of men, animals,
and machines is helping to bring Victory nearer. Through the
jangles of Burma and the Southwest Pacific islands, over the
mountains and across the plains of Italy, France and India, men,
machines, mules and horses form lifelines of food, medicine
and munitions . . . supplying the countless demands of the men
fighting at the battle fronts. This is not strange . . . for, since
time began, men and animals have gone to battle side fay side
. . . giving devotion and courage, and life if necessary, to the
well being of home and country, . , . This is Teamwork that
•it/
M H on the homefront is just as -ital to
, Victory . . . bard work, sacrifice and loyalty is our share of
warfare . . . and buying War Bonds regularly and often. The
one sure way of bringing the boys home sooner is to keep the
supplies rolling . . . tanks, planes, guns and ships . . . the equip-
ment with which a- war is won. The big job ahead demands
Teamwork on the part of all ... so buy that extra Bond today,
and keep on buying Bonds until Victory!
Texas Power (5 Light Company is giving all-out support to the nation’s war
effort. Over and above Its responsibility to keep electric power continuously
available for military installations, war industries and civilian needs, this Com-
pany and its employees are selling War Bonds and Stamps to customers and
other citizens ... buying Bonds themselves regularly and often . .. giving time
and effort in the support'of ‘every phase of the war program.
