Italian War Loan Draws Broad Support Across Classes
The national war loan in Italy drew strong participation from middle and working classes, with banks open Sunday to accept sun subscriptions. Verona saw about 2.9 million lire in small subscriptions, and similar fervor spread to Venice Florence and other cities. A bootmaker in Bergamo was sentenced to two years penal servitude and fined 2000 lire for selling boots with cardboard soles. News of protests in Washington and attacks on Morgan caused a stir, with Milan papers running special editions that eclipsed war dispatches. The events may blunt expected gains from Germany’s replies to Wilson notes.
