Gives Political Creed
of German Chancellor
By Associated Press
Copenhagen, Aug. 18.—Interesting
light on the political creed of Dr.
George Michaelis, the German chan
cellor, is given In an article which
he wrote in December, 1914, for an
obscure religious weekly which has
now been resurrected. It condemns
parliamentarism on the one hand
and on the other the selfish policy
of the conservative party.
"What Democrat, In view of the
miserable fiasco of parliamentarism
in England and of the republican
constitution In France, can demand
parliamentary rule fh Germany?" Dr.
Michaelis asked. "Who will dare to
touch the emperor's military author
ity?" He challenged those who
"wish to place the noose of minis
terial responsibility to the law about
the neck of the chancellor."
Seven Billion Bond Issue
in House Committee
By Associated Press
Washington, Aug. 18. The House
ways and means committee had be
fore it to-day Secretary McAdoo's pro
posal for a bond issue of $7,638,945,-
000 to bear 4 per cent. Interest and
subject only to Income supertaxes,
war profits and excess profits taxes.
The proposed legislation Is expected to
provide $4,000,000,000 for additional
loans to the allies and for the retire
ment of the $3,000,000,000 nontaxable
3% per cent, bond Issue now authoriz
ed to meet allied loans.
The committee will meet a week
from to-day and the prospects are
that it will accept the 4 per cent, pro
posal. Sentiment apparently is strong
for a flat levy of 6 per cent, on the
interest rate or the application of the
Income tax. It is the hope to put the
necessary legislation through the
House inside of a week after the com
mittee acts.
Triple Pumper For City

British ship was trained on the

Get Orders in Promptly
Judging from instructions to deal
ers whicn have just been issued by
the Peerless Motor Car Co., of Cleve
land. the builders of the widely-known
Peerless Eight are among those com
panies which are not experiencing any
let-up in business as result of the war.
The following notice has been sent
to all Peerless Eight dealers:
"Specifications that call for delivery
of Model 56 cars during August should
be placed with the factory at once. In
spite of full swing manufacturing in
the new factory buildings, the demand
for the Peerless Eight is still greater
than the output. Distributors are
warned to file specifications promptly
and to urge prospects to conclude
their orders aB far in advance of de
sired delivery dates as possible."
The Peerless officials credit the un
usually good showing made by the
sales department to the splendid per
formance of the two power range
Peerless Eight motor.
