BOOKS ARE A SYMBOLOF LIBERTY

BOOKS ARE A SYMBOLOF LIBERTY

Books have always been the priceless heritage of a free people. When a new volume has been added to our shelves, it simply means that democracy and all it stands for is still at work.

Take away our books, and we become slaves, unknown and unknowing.

TheyBURNEDthe books in that dark land of oppression and cast into the flames not only words of beauty and knowledge, but a symbol of liberty: Man’s right to read the books of his choice.

We must never let that happen here!

Buy War Bonds and Stamps Nowso that we and our children may continue to enjoy the blessings of freedom, now and forever.
