The National Tribune to Unknown, 27 October 1917
National Tribune
October 27, 1917.
Dear Madam:
The National Tribune has good news for you. On Saturday, October 6, 1917, the President signed a Bill increasing the pension of all Civil War widows now on the rolls to twenty-five dollars per month.
This Bill will distribute annually $25,000,000 additional among widows now on the Pension Rolls, and will bring needed relief to nearly 300,000 worthy and deserving women.
This legislation is a partial consummation of the agitation that The National Tribune has carried on for years, single handed, and against the mightiest array of opposition from the influential papers of the country and the selfish magnates of the Interests.
Send your dollar for a year's subscription to The National Tribune.
DO IT NOW!
Fraternally yours,
THE NATIONAL TRIBUNE.
