"Easy Aces" Buy Bomber Bonds
ADIO in America has played a full part in selling American Detence Bonds. Not only has Tin Pan Alley ground out countless patriotic songs emphasising the duty of good American citizens to invest in bonds, but many of the regular network shows have also "plugged" Defence Bonds. A recent programme of " Easy Aces" was written entirely around the theme of Defence Bonds, and by a coincidence its broadcast in New Zealand occurred during "Bonds for Bombers Week." The sponsors of the programme thought the coincidence sufficiently remarkable to cable Mr. and Mrs. Ace: "Your programme on Detence Bonds very much appreciated and proved very useful in New Zealand. ..." A cabled reply came almost immediately, " Delighted Defence Bond programme contributed to New Zealand Bonds for Bombers campaign. Forwarding therewith draft for two hundred and fifty dollars. Please purchase bonds to this value on our behalt. Best wishes to all New Zealanders in their efforts to assist war programme.Jane and Goodman Ace."
