The New Spirit

An animated cartoon in which Donald Duck as a citizen learns that a citizen can help the nation's war effort by paying his taxes promptly.

The film begins with Donald Duck, flush with the contemporary patriotic spirit present with the United States' full entry into World War II, dancing to a patriotic song. A radio announcer tells about the new patriotic spirit and asks Donald if he is willing to do his part in the war effort. The announcer urges Donald to mail his payment to the Federal government at once, and Donald enthusiastically races across the nation to Washington DC to deliver it in person.
