Massachusetts Disliked War Bond Drive Says Letter
An extract from a letter cites April thrift and war savings stamps figures showing Massachusetts lags the nation. Nebraska led with 11.08 per capita. Massachusetts at 0.34, ranking 34th. The author blames too much spending on Christmas presents and pleasure cars, notes over 15,000 more non commercial autos registered in early 1918 than 1917, and argues surplus funds should aid war materials and labor for ships and munitions rather than personal comforts. The piece connects these choices to a longer war and predicts benefits postwar for the Omaha-to-coast region industries.
