May 07, 1919
EVENING HERALD, Los Angeles, May 7, 1919 Above the masthead is a banner head: "HUGE WAR BILL IS GIVEN HUNS" and a very large, bold banner headline announces: "TEXT OF TREATY" with a subhead: "Germany Loses Colonies; Ex-Kaiser ill Be Tried; 5 Billion First Payment". The article notes near the beginning: "...enjoys of defeated Germany stood with bowed heads before the enjoys of the victorious allied nations & America & were handed the 'iron peace terms' binding them to the most humiliating peace ever forced on a powerful nation...". It was this punishing treaty which angered so many in Germany, including Adolph Hitler, & is credited in part for instigating World War II.
Included are pages 1, 2, 3, 4, 7, 8, 9 & 10, all the pages which contain the continued articles concerning the treaty which ended World War I. Cleanly cut at the spine, minor margin tears, nice condition.
