Liberty Bond Drive and Prohibition Debate Across State
The Shepherdstown column notes a Liberty Bond appeal as patriotic and a good investment amid wage hikes. It cites enforcement failures of liquor laws near Martinsburg and Baltimore parade plans, plus details on the Victory Liberty Loan offering three to four year notes totaling 4.5 billion, with specific payment dates and conditions. It also reports Wilson in Paris saying peace terms near, with Germany to pay up to 25 billion in gold and possible trial for Kaiser Wilhelm II.
