After War There Are Jobs Yet Pressure On Workforce
Worries of 1937 and 1918 about returning soldiers gave way to ample employment. Many quit jobs from patriotic duty, women resume home life, and postwar expansion follows war time inactivity. Farmers and professionals face hardship while veterans seek roles as business leaders and industry steadies the economy.
Need for Care Congress Flooded With Petitions
A War Writers Board pledge for peace circulates through the Pledge for Peace Committee, claiming five weeks to draft and under a minute to read and sign. The letter argues such pledges bind the nation, warns of entrenched Chicago gang influence, ongoing Kansas City gangster rule, and a USA peril from labor racketeers under current administration. The piece rails at political misdirection and urges defense of democracy abroad and purity in government.

Government Bonds and Tax Records in Public Finance
The text notes everyday use and Social Security funds held as U.S. 100s government bonds. When demand rises, bonds must be sold to raise money for the government's share. It also says income tax forms are simple beside the rest of the government's bookkeeping.
They’ll Pay For it Ex-service Men and War Debts
The piece argues against large bonuses funded by borrowed money for veterans. It notes Civil War veterans paid war debts through service and pensions, while current soldiers will backbone postwar America. The author views increasing burdens as a serious issue for a generation.
Real Problem After War Trade and Labor Pressures
The piece argues postwar competition will shape world supply and prices without price controls. It warns legislators to act on this issue, noting ships, personnel, food, and goods exist but may be undermined by union leadership and the Wagner Act, urging independence from longshoremen and union influence.

The American Way Earned-Reward Budget Proposal
A wartime budget idea argues for prudent spending by allowing only one-fifth of the total to be spent yearly over ten years. An incentive to save would apply 3 percent simple interest in the first five years and 3 percent compound interest in the second five years. The total national cost would be less than four months of 1944 war expenditures, presenting the earned-reward method as the American way.
