The Army Ordnance Department wanted a theme song; so did the Treasury Department. Both asked Composer Irving Berlin to write them one. Mr. Berlin obliged, and the songsArms for the Love of America and Any Bonds Today?were launched last week on Arsenal Day (June 10). At the War College in Washington, Singer Barry Wood baritoned:
Arms for the love of America,
They speak in a foreign land
With weapons in every hand.
Whatever they try
We've got to reply
In language that they understand.
Arms for the love of America
And for the love of every mother's son
Who's depending on the work that must be done
By the man behind...
