Australian Second World War poster appeals for people to buy bonds in the fourth victory loan. Administered by the Commonwealth War Loan Office the war loans scheme encouraged Australians to buy war bonds which would mature with interest after the war. War loan (also known as the liberty loan and, from 1944, victory loan) drives became a part of life, with people regularly being asked to 'dig deep' to help fund the war effort. A total of 12 major Government war loans would be offered to the Australian public during the Second World War. Many communities had a war loans committee to ensure that its population met its quota, and to handle local administration such as publicity visits.
