The price of .(jL\ SPENDING '^EW IT is clear to all that there is a gap between the cost of the War to the New Zealand people, and what is being taken by the Government in Taxes and Loans to meet it. The Nation is spending too much, and saving too little. Saving money is nothing new for the members of the A.M.P. Society. They are accustomed to saving for the* defence of their families, but they — and every man and woman — must now save harder for the defence of the Nation. Every bullet fired by our troops, every bomb exploded, every plane or ship lost, has to be paid for by the New Zealand people. The more we pay cheerfully today in* Taxes and Loans, the less we shall have to pay in bitterness when the day of reckoning comes. The A.M.P. is putting £500,000 of its members' savings into the War Loans every month: already it has loaned the Government of New Zealand over £9,000,000, and £46,000,000 to the Australian Commonwealth Government. In war-time the price of spending is future distress, AM fi SOCIETY 9 HTiH 9aH • "A sure friend in uncertain times" THE LARGEST MUTUAL LIFE OFFICE IN THE EMPIRE Established 1849.
