Germans Subscribing to Ninth Victory Loan in Germany Now
Washington Sept 24 Germans are subscribing to their ninth Victory loan. The issue opened Sept 23 and runs four weeks as Americans prepare for the fourth Liberty Loan. The bonds bear 5 percent interest and will be issued at 98. Germany funds its war by loans and taxes, but debt climbs as belief in a quick end fades. Public confidence returns through bonds, with banks aiding sales and municipalities investing, while future control of industry looms as a postwar plan.
