SAVINGS

In the past the "Star" has sueeesr | jully sponsored many appeak I *unds have been opened with sud- I stantial donations from yoursete I and other leading businesses and fe citizens. This concrete evidence tf ¥ sincerity ensures and gets the«B- I hcience and the support of the pubJia 1 Recently an appeal was made orar I: the radio for national savings Aγ p war purposes. Xo doubt, this «r2 I meet with a certain amount of response, but had we been given a jead the results would no doubt hart been improved. Might I suggest that as this a national appeal, ittriE possibly be more successful, if, next I time it is put over or advertise! . lines similar to those used so sne- I cessfully bv you are employed. For instance, the leaders of the country I are the trade union executives ami the Government. Would it not be | politic to announce the amorats ; which each of our leaders is person- I ally investing in the fund? It wE | be appreciated that they are not pn& I lished for esotistical purposes, but |- merel.v as a helpful indication « I sincerity. After all. practising «*« I one preaches is proof of sincerity. I and a pood lead from our leader; t will ensure results. The only cob- I creto examples I can recall are the I Published photocrraph of the Hon I Petor Fraser being handed the firs I National Ravings Certificate of " | denomination and a few. a veryfeir, fe '.inion contributions.
