Faster than the speeding port. More carfalls and locomotive. Able to leave poor buildings at a single bound. Look! Let the sky survive! Yes, it's Superman, strange visitor from another world, who came to Earth with powers and abilities far beyond both of mortal men.
Superman, who contains the course of mighty rivers, then steal in his bare hands. and who disguised as Clark Kent, mild man of reporter for a great metropolitan newspaper, fights a never-ending battle for truth, justice, and the American way.
But before we join Superman, here is an important message. Fellows and girls, have you ever seen a squadron of American bombers roaring through the air information? Have you seen newsreel pictures of Uncle Sam's destroyers cutting through the seas on patrol in search of enemy subs and surface raiders?
I'm sure you have and I bet you were thrilled. You probably felt terribly proud too. Well, if you've been buying war-saving stamps regularly, you have a right to be proud. Not only because those planes and those ships represent the fighting spirit of America, but because you helped to build them.
Yes, sir. Every time you bought a war-saving stamp, your money helped by the labor and materials that are used to make planes and ships and equipment to knock out the Nazis and the jets. So next time you hear some boy or girl in your block say, oh, shucks, what difference does it make if I buy one stamp or not?
What difference can one dime make? You tell them that it does make a difference. It makes a big difference. Tell them, for instance, that five dimes will buy enough fuel oil to take an American destroyer one full mile closer to its objective, or that one dime will buy 545 caliber bullets.
