Good Citizenship
A bank account makes a food citizen. - That's a broad assertion but it is universally true. ,
A good citizen is one who is independent, self supporting, and who does things conducive to
the best interest of the community. The man who has a bank account is independent, he is able to
pay his way and he contributes to the general. wealth of his community. His funds are in circulation.
He pays taxes and helps to make things go. Likewise a man who has money and property in a com
munity is anxious to see that the community prospers. We pull for the man with a bank account.

HISTORY OF PRUSSIAN MIL
ITARY AUTOCRACY BY
DAVID F. HOUSTON
SECRETARY OF
AGRICULTURE.
Ab jut the time of tbe discov
ery of America, the llobenzollern
family ruled over ao insignificant
tract urrounr)ing the village of
Berlin. Iu 1611 its power was
extended by the union of the
Mark of Brandenburg and the
rwhv of Prussia. In 1640 a
strone character, Frederick Will
mm came into power. He exer
cised despotic rule, but put his
bouse in order and developed a
relatively strong standing army
with which to make further
headway by lorce as opportunity
might offer. In 1698, the date of
the Restoration in England, and
the beginning of her orderly con
titutional government, Freder
ick the Third, an ambitions men
vidua!, became fiead of the house
His title was Elector of Branden
r,np and Duke of Prussia. He
v-r
was anxiflus for recognition, for
the title of King. Tbe War of
the Soanish Succession was
about to begin. His overlord,
the llolv Roman Euperor need
d assistance. Frederick .was
nrerjared to trade and promised
the aid of his army in exchange
for the title of Elector of Bran
Henburc and King cf Prussia
This be secured in 1701. Here
was the first phase of the con-
tai.t with Austria, the last of
mriir-.h in seen in our own day in
the complete subordination of
Austrian to Prussian mnuence
A violent, brutish person

made no pretense of virtne and
is reoortcd to have sid: 'Ambi-
lion, luteiest and the desire 01
makine people tnlk about me
cirued the day aud I decided for
war."
Prussia was defeated and hu
miliated by Napoleon in a quick
campaign in 1806 but tbe libera
movements of the penoi scarce
ly affected her. She bided her
time and laid her plans. Her
next considerable advarce was
maden 1804, when she induced
Austria to jam her in taking
Schleswig and llolstein from
Den mam. Austria received llol
stein; and In 1866 Prussia picked
a quarrel with bor and qoickiy
vanished her. appropriating lioi
ateln and annexing llanover,
Hesse, Nassau and Frankfort,
which had takea sides with Aus
tria. Thus she rounded oui ner
territory. Whea' the Prussian
Parliament protested that force
wasnota sufficient justincuion
for what had been done to Den
mark Bismark replied: "Our
neht is the right of the German
nation to exist, to breathe, to
unite." The claim of a place in
the sun the doctrine of necessity
and the richt of might are not of
recent appearance in Prussian
history, lhey have boon tne
outstanding characteristics of
her thinking and practico since
she emerged fiom mednvai oo
scurity.
THE CRUSHING OF FRANCE
The next step w8the crushing
of France in 1870 71 theannexa
tlon of Alsace-Lorraine and the
imrjoaition of Prussiau leadership
ou Ger msny under the guise ol a
confederation. No wonder Bern
hardi wrote:
"The lessons of history corjfir m
the view that wars which have
heon deliberately provoked by
farseoing statesmen have had the
ha piest resulic" No wonder
Prussia believes that a grel
armv U the cornerstone of bcr
wbll-bt:io as a ration and tb&t
war is a positive good If it sue
ce da.
So Prussia has come to domi
nam Gurmauv. She now seek
to dominate the whole of central
Europe and a part of Asia; and,
if she gains what she wants in
this war she persistently lay her
plans for tho next great aggres
give move.
I'UUSSIA IS GERMANY.
Prussia is Germany. She has
three-fifths the area and five
nights tha population. The Ger

many and Germany supreme in
Europe. He knew how to do the j
jib. Thii is the underlying taoi:(
Prussia is Germany and Prussia
politically is feudal. In such a
syetem aoveroignty is the pri
vate right of rulers. Tbe prince
may'desl with hit people as pri
vate individuals do with their
lands. Recently we had a clear
pratical illustration of this in
Germany. The ruler of Waldtck
got into debt. He could not raise
the money to fquip his army. He
therefore sold bis rights, his pos
aessions, and his peoples to tho
King of Prussia and went to Italy
live on his income. The peo
pie exist for the Government and
not the Government for the peo
ple. Frederick William was not
joking when he wrote: "Salva
tion belongs to the Lord and
everything else is my affair," or
aeain. "We are lord and king
and can do what we will.".Neith
er was the present Kaiser when
he asserted: "We Hohenzollerns
talro nnr crown from God alone
and to God alone are we respon
aible m the fulfillment of our
duty." He was simply revealing
the true Inwardness of bis royl
medieval mind and ol Frusaian
Dolitics. speaking from the back
trround of centuries or ieuuai
traditions. Prussia la a feudal
State. It practices paternalism

day as did the Duchy of Prussia
on a small scale centuries ago,
It asserts the divine right of the
king and of aristocrats to rule,
LANDOWNERS AND INDUSTRIAL
LEADERS CONTROL.
Prussian governments ar
rangements today of all grades
are the legal expression ol the
pennomic interests and domina
tion of the large landowners and
of their recent allies the great
industrial leaders. Feudal es
tates still persist in the kingdom,
wiih their principal strongnoids
in East Prussia, Posen, and
Pomerania. In Prussia 31 per
cent ot the land is in estates of
over 250 acres, large holdings for
nontral and western Europe; in
Poieno55per cent and in Po
merana 52 per cent. Tbe aver
age size of 8,365 estates in East
Prussia is 1.132 acres; of 2 1Q6 in
Pomeraua 1,380 acres. Many of
thtise are very large and are own

lords. The great landhold
