SO serious is the con

The bulletin says:
"All these painful con

GERMAN BOOSTS BONDS
BRICK GIVES REASONS FOR
LOYALTY TO AMERICA.
W
r Is Conflict Between Paternallam
and Democracy and Mr. Brack
CfaoscB Democracy.
A splendid Instance of the individual
effort that is making the second lib
erty loan a bij? success 1 this state
was afforded yesterday at the liberty
loan headquarters, when a statement
of his loyalty and tne reasons for it
was made by H. Rruck. nroorieto-r of
the Ooodyear- Shoe. Company. Mr.
Bruck was born in Germany. lie said:
When I read President Wilson's state
ment that we had to submit or fight. I be
an thinking- over what we ar flphtins
for. or what we had to submit to. The es
sence of my thoughts. was as follows:
li seems this war is a con flirt of two
principles that Is. the German principle of
government against the English or Amer
ican principle of government. The German
principle of government Is based on pater
nalism. In other words, the German gov
ernment claims that no man will do any-
tning ror bis own good unless he is com
pelled to. and the whole people are the
,tne.
The Knglish or American principle is
based on individuality. In other word, give
the people individual freedom and they will
do the best there is in them for themselves.
Therefore. If we have to submit, as Presi
dent Wilson lays, we would have to submit
to the German idea of government; but we
are fighting for our ideal of government
that Is Individual freedom.
I was with a crowd of people the other
evening who were all German sympathizers.
IN one or them had bought a Government
bond, and I asked them why they did not.
They told me that they were not In favor
of thi? war. as we had nothing to fight for.
The idea or fighting other people a lights
wasn't for this country.
I aslced them If they knew what we were
fighting for. They had a rather hazy Idea,
but they did not really know until I ex
plain to them what I stated before, and I
asked them what ideal they thought the
best and they all of them announced that
hey thought our Government Is the one
they would like best and they wouldn't
want to be dictated to like the Germans are
by their government. All of them premised
me to go the next day and buy liberty
bonds, and I know mopt of them did.

A. L. Mills, president of the First Na
tional Bank of Portland, in a Liberty
Bond day address here tonifrht, declared
that, in his opinion, the 4 per cent lib

go below par.

down, what is our sacrifice ?" he asked
"Nothing as compared with those whose
sons, husbands and brothers are sacri
ficed at the front. America is at war for
self-preservation to protect the lives
and property of her citizens and the
honor of her women."
Pie called attention to accounts In

soldiers at Fort Stevens to the liberty
loan, showing that the members of one
