£3OO . 4 I for every Man,JW Zu J. It' Woman /yt fr jf f ‘ / T and \, Child Jc in New Zealand That is the money-cost of New Zealand’s war effort to date —£3oo per head of population. If the bill was divided up equally and presented just like the grocer’s hill that is the approximate amount that you and every member of your household would be asked to pay. y Of course the bill could not be presented' like that—to pay \ f° r t * le War * n t* l3 * wa y wou ld be impossible. How th en is payment made? It works like this. Of the total war c ° st from 1939 to 1945, “mounting to over ffi £300,000,000, we have endeavoured to pay as much as ” J possible out of taxation. Everyone has contributed someOp. thing in taxes, each according to his means. / The remainder of our war cost is met by loans*. It’s y something of which to be proud, isn’t it, that a small £ country like New Zealand has voluntarily raised some £200,000,000 in War Loans since 1939. ’77* Taxation or loans; these are the only ways by which we can Kilt \ safel > P a y f° r t * ie war ‘ 1 \ \ ' Soon y° u ’ H bc ask ed to lend again—to the 1945 Victory Loan. ‘ 1 * t S time now tO P* an * IOW much X ou,| l iend- In this year OS \ of Victory, 1945, promise to make a substantial contribution. ijgy W' 77 3 *WHAT ARE LOANS SPENT ON:- ’ n 1943/44 major items were— P ay and a *l°' wances • • • • £43,700.000 a Accommodation, food and clothing • - 7,200,000 WMk' i 1 War Stores 52,000,000 1 Medical Supplies - • 700.000 I Transport 5.900,000 I / an d an d Buildings - 7.000.000 I Rehabilitation from War Expenses A/c only - 500.000 Reverse Lend Lease .... 24.400,000 £141.400.000 IVictory Loan opens on May 14th.
