Emotional appeal
Emotion appeal is a propaganda tool that arouses emotional reactions which inspires people to support a certain cause. This picture arouses fear in adults, mostly parents, because the image implies that their children may be harmed during war. As a parent, one would definitely be more willing to do something if it will keep their children from harm. This propaganda uses emotional appeal to instil fear into parents, and persuade them into buying war bonds for the sake of their children.
