...reference to the so-called "Reparations Bonds'' or ''Young Plan Bonds" (German Government 5½s). Generous though the U. S. may be to the Allies (who owe her war debts), generous though they may be to Germany (who owes them Reparations), the German treasury is still pledged on a business basis to pay interest and principal to holders of these bonds who, like Mr. Young's creditors, will doubtless prove "very hard-hearted." The fact that German 5½ have markedly declined (see p. 19) means merely that .there is some uneasiness lest Germany...

...skirted the question with large spreads headed first "Give us beer," shout 20,00,000 New Yorkers, later a little more vigorously with "Banish poison booze!" But last week's prophecy or announcement was boldest of all. The excuse for it: Gobel's promised to make "a generous cash contribution to a worthy society working for Prohibition reform" for each can of Gobel's Sugar Cured Ham sold...
