POETS CORNER I AM AN AMERICAN I am an American I place my trust in God He gave this soil on which I stand, And gave this flag so broad That we, from sea to shining sea May pause beneath its care And worship Him with liberty, And worship Him in prayer. Ah! True, the prize was won , .v thru toil . And sacrifice and tears And harshlps met and conquered Down thru all the passing years. But men are built by storms that rage, And threatening wind and rain For man is nobler more serene For having tasted pain. And now this gift of liberty And life and home and land Comes down so free to you and me From out our Saviour's hand. If we would keep OLD GLORY high We must accept our share Of tears, of toil, of hardships too, And we must pause for prayer. The roar of tanks and planes and guns And bleeding, disillusioned men; And cities gutted by dread bombs No human tide can stem; Such sorrow brought by war on war Will never solve earth's woe- It only brings destruction death And crosses, row on row. The Prince of Peace must come must come Into the hearts of men Else we shall lose our country's flag Our cause be -lost again. 'Tis more than conquering foes without That threatens liberty; It's men adrift away from' God, Who will not bend a knee. America! . . . America! Our home, our hope our pride Lets take our stand throughout the land, Right by our Saviour's side! I pledge allegiance to my flag And to my Saviour too. He gave His precious life for me, ; And gave our red white and blue! By Robert Shaffer.

Jackson St., Roseburg COMPLETE OPTICAL SERVICE Dr. D. B. Bihar 110 No. Jackson Netherlands Jews HifByBakhof Nazi Restrictions WASHINGllrw Aug. 2.V-1 (AP) Dutch Jews lire forbidden to eat kosher meat as decreed by their religion, under one of the many anti-Jewish orders promul gated by nazi authorities In tho conquered Netherlands, accord ing to authoritative reports just received in diplomatic quarters here. To doubly insure compliance with the dietary prohibition, the reports added, the German occu pation authorities issued an or dinance "to prevent tormenting of animals when slaughtered." That ordinance was Interpreted to prohibit the Jewish ritual of slaughtering which is required to obtain kosher meat. German authorities have charg. ed Jews with instigating numer ous antl-nazl activities, and some of the decrees were alleged to have been issued to suppress "Jewish secret organizations" and punish Jews for plots against German rule. Despite the fact that the 120, 000 Jews in the Netherlands ex cept 18,000 German Jew refu gees have lived there since their ancestors fled from Spain and Portugal more than 400 years ago, they were never ac corded full Dutch citizenship. Other Bans Created Other anti-Jewish measures noted in the reports provide that: Jews may not employ Germans or persons of Aryan blood In their households. No Jew may attempt to enter a university. No Jew may work in the pul) lie service in any capacity. No Jew may enter theaters, In cluding movie theaters. Jews are barred from ap proximately 90 per cent of the cafes and restaurants.
