"Every German who came to Amer ica and received cttizensnip has sworn allegiance to two flags to one because he had to, to the other because he wanted to. To which flag does he owe allegiance ?" Putting- it straight up to the pro Prussian is a policy that finds strong recommendation from Max Maximilian of Grand Haven.

Air Eqnlpssrnt Important. "Mr. Wentworth believed," said Mr. Maximilian. In explanation of his er rand, "that full efficiency among the wooden shipyards, and the retention of pennants for rapid production, would best be served by Improvements in air equipment. At his suggestion tho Ship ping Board asked varioua pneumatic tool manufacturers to name someone in a consulting capacity. The choice hap pened to fall upon me." All of which is by way of Intro ducing Max Maximilian, who learned the machinist's craft in Germany and who haa looked up from his tasks in the great Krupp works at Essen to see Bertha Krupp on her rounds of the in dustry which is Germany's chief strength in the present struggle.

"They have sworn allegiance to two flags." resumed Mr. Maximilian, his ac cent proving that he knew whereof he apoke. "In Germany they were herded and kicked together, a thousand or so at a time, and the oath of allegiance til made a public spectacle. That flag, what did it mean -to them? A good many of them cursed it as they stood there in the hot sun. waiting to take the enforced oath. "I don't blame German - Americans, born in this country, for being prc Prussian. They don't know any bet ter. But I do blame the man who was born in Germany, who served in the German army, and who knows how things are over there. Not one of them but has bettered himself from 100 to 500 per cent. I know 1 did. When such men hope for a German victory 1 lose patience. "To serve In the Kaisers army they know what It means. It means a nickel a day and one meal a day, and kicks and blows from every little tor- poral and whipper-snapper officer. It means curses and kicks, and to be the ol-Ject of the vilest language that can be used. They needn't talk to me about the glory of such service. I've been through It. Maximilian Haa Enough. "When our period of service ex pired they rounded us irp at attention and made a talk to the effect that all good Germans should be ready to serve the Kaiser a ain when he called them. I said to myself: Tou sons-of-guns. you've got a fine chance to get me back!

The German peo ple will not know until after the war. They pray for the Kaiser now, for they have been told that America seeks to destroy them.

P. 31. report of preceding day- Circus day today: Eighty - nine railroad cars full of Barnum & Bailey's Greatest Show on Earth arrived yesterday morning and proceeded to make an establishment on the lot at Twenty-fifth and Raleigh. All kinds and conditions of Portland's people watched the business of putting together the city of tents from, morn ing until night. There will be no parade' and the entrances will be opened at 1:30. That will make the matinee performance start at 2:30. The evening show will be given at the regular hour. The circus parade wae eliminated because of the labor parade and the matinee is scheduled for 2:30 so as not to inter fere with the labor celebration in any way. Pagreant Moat Impresafve. The big show has been described as the most impressive thing of its kind that has been presented to the public. It opens with a pageant entitled "Alad din and His Wonderful Lamp." There are 1275 persons in the display and during Us action 3500 new costumes are worn. There is a caravan of 35 cameU, 500 hoiees, 40 elephants and 350 musicians. Ir. this great prelude to the old-fash ioned circus which follows, there has been a serious attempt to depict, not only in effect, but in materials as well, the splendor of the ancient courts of China. Aladdin and hie Princess bride are the main figures, while their en tire court vies with them in magnif icence. Ten of the elephants in the procession are covered with robes in which the materials, cloth of gold and heavy velvets, spangles and trimmings, were put - together by hand and are said to have cost in the neighborhood of tlOOO each to make. The music which ie of the exotic Easter school, was especially written. Performance Given in Three Rings. The performance which follows occu pies three rings, four stages and all of the space in the upper riggings of the great tent as ' well as the hippo drome around the center. There are 480 special performers who give ex hibitions of daring on horseback, high wires, swinging trapeze and in various other ways that are described as new and startling as well as amueing. Headed by the world-famous Marcel- line, the clowns have invented enough new funny capers to keep the crowd laughing, every moment. The Barnum &Bailey management is credited by the war savings committee of Tacoma with greatly aiding the war savings drive. The parade was turned over to the committee, pledge cards distributed at the show, and Tacoma business men spoke at each perform ance. L. H. Burnett, chairman of the committee, writes: "Through your excellent co-operation, by -Saturday noon we had pledges sufficient to insure Tacoma's going 'over the top.' " FORMER MEIER & FRANK employes not now employed who are desirous of taking up all-day or short-hour work in the store are requested to report at Superintendent's Office tomorrow morning at 9 o'clock. Please come prepared to go to work. ill:, The Quality Storb of Poktlamd NEVVRECQHDSQUGHT Another "First" For Oregon Is Aim of Bankers. DRIVE STARTS THIS WEEK TRAINING WILL CONTINUE Reed College Instruction for Women Re-starts October 1. Training of women as reconstruction aides in physio-therapy will be contin ued at Reed College after the expira tion of the present term on Septem ber . The second course of three months will be opened on October 1, also the first course of training for reconstruction aides in occupational therapy; a course giving first-year work for nurses: and courses which will prepare women for Government positions as accountants, statisticians, secretaries, bacteriologists, chemists and recreational directors. On September 6, 1S6 women will re ceive certificates for the completion of the special three months training course for reconstruction aides. The surgeon-general has recently given no tice of the probable need of 1500 women as reconstruction aides who, like Army nurses, will have all expenses paid and receive o0 a month while on duty in this country and $60 a month overseas. Strenuous Effort to Be Made to Complete State's Quota or Fifth Issue of Treasury Certifi cates of Indebtedness. Oregon this week will strive for an other patriotic record. Under direc tion of a special committee represent ing the Oregon State Bankers' Associ ation, an effort will be made to com plete the state's quota of fifth issue of treasury certificates of indebtedness. These certificates will be offered for sale probably tomorrow and the time for receiving subscriptions will expire September 10. Former issues of these certificates were handled through the Twelfth Fed eral Reserve District Bank at San Fran cisco direct. The fifth issue will be handled by the bankers' associations in the states composing the TweJth Dis trict. In this way it will be possible more effectively to check up the banks in the state and see that each partici pates in the absorption of these certifi cates. The Oregon committee in this way hopes to secure another "first" for the state and at the same time gain Nation-wide recognition of the patriot ism of Oregon bankers. "The committee representing the Ore gon State Bankers' Association," said Edward Cookingham, chairman of the committee, yesterday, which is in charge of the campaign for the sale of these certificates, "is making an ardu ous effort to get every bank to sub scribe for some of these certificates. It feels reasonably confident that it will succeed. If it does, Oregon will be the only state in the Union to attain this record so far as is known." Nearly everj bank in the state has been subscribing for these certificates. The few banks which did hot subscribe for previous offerings have been inter viewed by the cdmmittee and assur ances have been received that nearly every one will participate in the fifth offering. All banks which have sub scribed heretofore are expected to sub scribe at this time and on that th committee relies for a 100 per cent participation by the banking institu tions of the state. Associated with Mr. Cookingham oa the Oregon committee for this cam. paign are A. L. Mills, E. G. Crawford, F. L. Meyers, F. L. Chambers. -W. A. MacRae, E. C. Apperson, J. C. Hostetler and G. M.
