[Letter]: "Dear Mr. Truman, We, as children of the United States who will someday be the world's adults, would like to tell you our feeling on the food question. We hope that the lifting of rationing will most influence the supply of food which must be sent to starving Europe. Will you, with America, make the greatest effort possible to get relief to these people? If we wish to show such countries as Germany and Austria the right way to live, we must also give them the bare necessities of life. We cannot teach democracy to starving people. Very sincerely yours, this letter was signed by fifteen children"
This WWII propaganda poster details the steps children can take to write letters to their newspaper editors, Congressmen, Senators, the Secretary of State, the Secretary of the Treasury, the Secretary of War, and the Secretary of Agriculture in order to lift food rations.
