"The Coward's Cry. 'YES' VOTE"
Description
Black and white leaflet on the Referendum. "The Coward's Cry. The most contemptible cry the Antis have yet put forward is that Australia is Eight Weeks from the Battle Front! BUT REMEMBER, Thousands of Australians are fighting for you in that battle line! The antis live here in comfort and safety behind the barricade of Australian heroism and valor. Our boys are fighting in the trenches for your honor and your protection and their lives. The antis urge you to leave them there alone and unsupported, to desert your own flesh and blood. You can frustrate such despicable treachery by a 'YES' VOTE.
