Lthograph poster. Laid down

This poster, issued by the United States Food Administration, engages in moral exhortation, intimating to naturalized citizens that the way to repay America for its kindness is by supporting the Allies in the war effort: "You come here to find freedom. Now you must help to defend it. We must supply the Allies with wheat. Do not let anything go to waste." See Judah L. Magnes Museum Catalogue, Witnesses to History: The Jewish Poster (1989) p. 16
