The 1920s propaganda campaign, "Reich Committee for the German referendum," or "Reichsausschuss," aimed to hold a referendum on the acceptance or rejection of the Young Plan—the last of the post-World War I reparations plans that regulated the payment obligations of the German Reich on the basis of the Treaty of Versailles. Here, the tumultuous affair is rendered as a bloodied scene, in which a wagon carrying a mother and child are being tugged from either side, supposedly by figures of good and evil. The text below reads, "Vote 'yes' at the people's referendum to get out of filth, misery, and suffering."
