Editorial Review on West Virginia Bond Dilemma
An editorial discusses West Virginia veterans and proposed bond issues. It contrasts a $67,000,000 veterans bonus with a potential $100,000,000 turnpike bond, arguing the bonus is inflationary yet backed by credit, while the turnpike supports national defense. It urges patience to aid those fighting in Korea and notes credit restraint aims to curb inflation.
