Original Title/Caption:  "Stop Accidents. America Needs Manpower."

Description: This World War II poster reads, “Stop Accidents.  America Needs Manpower.”  In smaller lettering at the bottom, it reads “War Transportation Conservation Program, American Legion.”  The center of the poster features a police officer holding an unconscious young man wearing overhauls.  The police office shakes his fist in the air in frustration.  Behind the officer you see the officer’s car.  The circular American Legion seal, which features a star that reads “U.S.” circled by the words “American Legion,” occupies the lower right corner of the poster.  This poster was produced between 1941 and 1945.
