Disclose Notes: Appears in several DC comics circa March 1943.

Writer unlikely to be Jack Schiff, who did DC's PSAs from 1949-1967 but is not known to have worked on any All American titles prior to their merge with DC, so probably written by an AA staffer. Ted Udall was on the AA staff in 1942-3, wrote a lot of the AA fillers, and would have been familiar with Wonder Woman, so he's a likely suspect. Another is (the future) Dorothy Woolfolk, who was also staff around this time, and is said to have written Wonder Woman, prior to her working on EC's Moon Girl in 47. Sheldon Mayer has also been identified as a potential writer of this PSA, but the source of that credit is not known.
