Victory Loan Appeals to American Investors
A wartime appeal emphasizes Victory Bonds and Victory Notes as the supreme government investment. It highlights 4 3/4 percent tax-exempt bonds for individuals and 3 3/4 percent tax-free notes for large holders, with ready convertibility and a four year maturity. The piece argues patriotism and market stability will drive demand, predicting limited future opportunities after May 10. Seattle and Washington state are urged to meet their quotas.
