NO. 31 UNCO LEA GERMANY TODAY; 8 YEARS AFTER START OF WAR Almost Universal Determination to Reconquer Lost Provinces Seems to Be Manifest in Minds of People. Students Feeling Keenly Humil iation of Defeat Have Ranged Themselves Solidly Behind . Idea of Restoiation. Written Specially for the Lincoln County Leader. By EDWARD PERCY HOWARD We have Just passed the eighth anniversary of the outbreak of the -world war. And what results? A few new nations in place ot older nations, new nations destin ed to bloodshed and suffering to maintain and develop their entity, old nations embittered to battle for their reincarnation. , It is difficult to get a proper pei epectlve of Germany. Henri Lichten berger, profejsor of the University of . Paris, In a twelve day visit to Berlin few weeks ago, dug out some very interesting facts. Growth of National Party Shows Trend of Thought. . Llchtenberger points out that the - German National party has succeeded the old Conservative party. This in cludes the aristocrats, the proprietors of large estates, and high ' officials of the old regime. The officials who have lost their positions and who are living from hand to mouth supply the party with force, are always ready for action, are energetic, eager for battle and even anxious for a fight. The university people, both faculity und students, fed on the tradition ot a rolicy of force, feel keenly the hum iliiition of defeat, and have ranged themselves solidly behind the ilea of a restoration of the German military power. The peasants form the mass of the party. The leaders have capitalized certain elemental mental conditions for the ' purpose of building strength, and or ganization. They exp'.ott the- bitter ness of the former privileged rlass'r?. they play upon the resentment of the disbanded army, they wave the fear r.ag of Bolshevism and excite the anti-Semite pasMon and the profound (Tis eSfld nn ponunuoo) MULTANOMAH BOX & LUMBER COMPANY BUSY PREPARING FOR LOGGING T'lt Mullanomah Box & Lumber company are rapidly getting in shape to start operations on the north line according to Lieutenant W.

HARDING VETOES gives rails Says Funds Not Provided and Argued That Financial Olbi gation Would Be Terrific. Washington The soldiers' bon us bill was vetoed by the Presi dent In a message to congress to day. The President declared he was in accord with the avowed purpose of the bill but could not , subscribe to Its provisions. He said congress had failed to provide ' the revenue to meet the provisions of the bill. The President said that the ulti mate cost could not be estimated definitely, but the Treasury figured a total of seven hundred fifty mil lion dollars in the first four years with a final charge In excess of four billion dollars. Harding told con press that tho 'proposed service certi ficates substituted for the original cash payment would constitute bor rowing "on the nation's credit Just '. as truly as though the loans were made by direct government borrow ing." He added this Involves "a dangerous abuse of public credit." The executive declared it is essen. tial "to remember that a more than four billion dollar pledge to ab'.e i. -vico men would not diminish the lat er obligation" which the veterans contributed to the "rolls of the ased, indigent and dependent." This ob'.i ration, he siid, would "cost mora billions than .1 venture to suggest."

LEFT OPEN INVITES T Marshal's Report Shows That During Past Month 10 Dif ferent Places Open; New Mar shal Appointed. Toledo merchants are again gcitlng careless . about leaving their places of business open, ac cording to a report submitted to the city dads at their meting Mon day evennlg by night . Marshal Schenek. The following places of business were found open dur ing the month: August 1st McCallou's Planing Mill August 6th Arthur Nye's, Gilder sleeve Grocery and Jacob's shops. August 8th 4.

The report also embodied the fact that -business men . as a whole, are keeping trash and dirt in front of their places fo business well cleaned up. On the restgnatoln of Mr. Schenek as. watchman, Fred Taylor was ap pointed to fill the fncancy. It is to be . regretted that a few business mou hufe refused to stand their share of the burden of paying the night watchman's salary, and the bur den will necessarily fall upon the re mainder. There Is no question that a night watchman Is absolutely neces sary to the protection of the business listrlct not only from burgulars and fnrolessnpss but also from fire, and all should be willing to stand his pro lortlonate share In order that the vatchman might be retained.
