Gulf South skies are
vibrant with the roar of
motors. There is a
quickened pace of
industrial activity as
airplanes, guns, ships and
from huge assembly lines.
( men in blue are everywhere.
Defense classes have waiting lie
drives exceed quotas.
Every man, woman and child in the Gulf
South, joined with all America, is meeting
the challenge. They are answering with
the might of all our natural resources and
speeded production. They are determined
that no dictator shall rob ns of our precious
heritage ... the right to life, liberty and
happiness.
Natural Gas, a part of our great industrial
army, has never worked so hard as now.
Our facilities more than adequate
■n peacetime—are now taxed to the
utmost to meet the greatly increased
demands of war. Because of these
greatly increased demands and
because building of pipe lines
must be kept to a minimum to
conserve steel, all of ns
can help by careful use of
this precious fuel. The
Gas you save will help
build more armaments
for Victory.
