Every ship thnt is sent to tho bottom by J submarines means so much advantage for German export trade. And while jtho U-boats are whittling away, Ger jmany's merchant marine is lying safe ,in its own and in neutral harbors and '.increasing in size. It is important to note also that throughout the neutral world German steamship offices have everywhere i been kept open since the outbreak of war; that most of the .clerical staffs have been retained and that lately they have been raised from half to full salaries. These steamship agen cies everywhere arc obviously being kept up, this enormous expense is being carried, because Germany has every intention of making a world wide campaign when peace comes for her lost trade. All of Germany's resources are not going up in battlefield smoke. All her factories have not been turned over to making the munitions of war. All her workmen are not in the trenches. All her workmen have not been em ployed exclusively in the manufacture of things needed for the army and the navy. There are factories today at Elberfeld, Remscheid, Frankfurt-am-Main, Dusseldorf, with smoke stacks belching and warehouses filled not with shells, but with certain articles to export. How Is German Business Standing the Pressure of War? ! The German nation is not on the verge of bankruptcy. It has no huge floating international debt, ilts war loans are secured five times over by 'property owned by the German state railroads, street car lines, baths, theatres, hotels, opera houses, libra 'ries, telegraph and telephone lines which property has not been put in pawn, and which constitutes enormous potential financial strength. I Germany will have goods to hrow on' the world's markets, as soon as peace comes; perhaps plenty of them in a few lines in which Germany en joys a superabundance of raw ma terials. The Germans will not lose money nor just break even by this low price trade. They will not "give goods away" for tho sake of getting back their world trade. In those lines in which she ha3 great natural ad vantages Germany will Imj able to put out goods at prices that are, legiti mately, very low. : To understand this phenomenon we must understand Germany during the war. There, since 1914, has the so cialistic state been evolved to nn unheard-of extent. We can best get a grasp of what Germany is doing to day if we suppose that an absolute dictator sat in Washington and around him were the banking, industrial and business leaders in America, entirely purged from selfish motives were we to suppose that graft did not exist, that politicians wore unable to use their power unjustly, ami that nil our resources, men, raw materials, fac tories, railroads, banks, and inland waterways, wore at the complete dis position of the dictator in Washing ton, and that he could do with them anything ho wished for the good of tho United States. That is approximately the German situation. Human ability is tho only speculative quality. Hut when we consider that the Kaiser is being ad- PUBLLSHED SUMMONS In the Circuit Court of the State of Oregon For Union County The United States National Bank of La Grande, a national banking cor poration, plaintiff. vs. Fred E.
