# For victory... put at least 10% of every pay into War Bonds!

A cartoon of three Axis leaders against a yellow ground: one in a brown uniform with a swastika armband laughs, a heavily decorated officer stands between, and a small figure whispers up to him. Speech balloons give them mock German-accented English, and the base panel asks for 10% of every pay in War Bonds. The tell is name-calling by caricature and accent, with the enemy's reaction used as the argument.
