MOnarchists ThrOng To DOOrn For Chats With Royal Exile

Prince August. They call him "Auwi." A patient Republican government let him run loose with his penchant for speech-making. Now, with the aristocrats restored to power, he is talking louder than ever.
 Born in 1887, he was always known as the" Hohenzollern who was pre-eminently the civilian prince. His papa, who loved uni- forms and military glory, just simply couldn't get Auwi interested in the soldiers life. So Auwi stud jed philosophy and civi govern ment instead.
 Unlike many a sprig of royalty, he really fell in love and demand ed to marry the girl of his choice Princess Alexandra Victoria of Schleswig- Holstein, his own cousin.
 In December, 1912 q son was born to him who was christened In February. 1913, as Alexander Fredinand and about 19 other names In view of the war, which was shortly to follow, the list of his sponsors makes interesting reading.
 Among future allies of the babe's grandfather were Emperor Franz Josef of Austro Hungary ana the czar of Bulgaria. Among sovereigns of future enemy coun- tries were the king of Italy, queen Alexandra of England. the king and queen of Belgium and the Dowager Empress Marie of Rus sia.
 During the World War Auwi, of course, had uniform and was assigned to one of the armies, but he did not shine as a warrior. The war over, he returned to Germany and for a time lived very quietly in the Villa Liegn!tz in Potsdam, one of the many residences the German government too generously allowed its former kaiser to keep as private property.
 Then something happened that was not so pleasant. His wife got q divorce from him and was mar ried again, her husband this time being stalwart naval captain Arnold Ruemann. with whom she dwelt for time in the United States.
 Suddenly Auwi became interested in German politics and joined the Steel Helm. But even that crowd seemed too tame for him. He re- signed from that organization and became a full-fedged member of

 What chance has Kaiser Wilhelm of coming back?
 AThe monarchists. staunch. united sfremely confident and in power for the first time since the war, think his chances are very good.
 Prince August Wilhelm. fourth son of the exile of Doorn, pub licely has proclaimed the forth coming Third Empire" with his father on the throne.

 But the charge has been made opening by Editor Fritz Gerlich Of the Catholic Political Review that Defense Minister Kurt von Schlei- cher has entered secret pact with Adolf Hitler Nazi chieftain, and hopes to overthrow the republican constitution and re-establish the monarchy.
 Even stolid Holland Is alarmed at the increase of activity around tine ex-kaiser's estate at Doorn. Great numbers of leading German mOnarchists have called recently. The former crown prince, once more a popular favorite, has been q recent visitor.
 Are they all calling to check up on Wilhelm's woodchopping?
 Tn their favorite bier stubes many a loyal German has called for large, cool stein of "dunkels' : to refresh him during weighty dis cussions of this favorite topic.
 As for Prince August-there is no doubt in his mind.
 "For 13 years the soul of Ger many has been smothered under foreign influences. but the first step of liberation has just been taken" he shouted to an enthusi- astic election audience in Berlin.

The fact that we have had too many banks does not. however, imply that there are too many banking ofiices in the United States"
 Continuing, he grants MT Mc-- Whirter's point that the failure of a bank with a considerable num- Der of branches extends disaster over a large territory and Is a more widespread disaster than If the branches had been left as in-, dependent banks. But he asks, isn't our present unit banking sys- tenn with correspondent relation ships open to exactly the same ob- jection?" And he describes the efforts of the old war finance cor poration in the early 20's and other more recent instances, of saving "key banks" because if they had failed they would have dragged down with them other smaller banks whose correspondent &C., counts they held. He believes that our present system has this one disadvantage and some others Of

New York, Aug 1.-Two well known bankers present arguments in favor of branch banking and of the branch banking section of the Glass bill which is to come up before congress again next fall, in articles appearing in the current American Bankers Association Journal. Their arguments are re- ply to those advanced last month in the Journal by Felix M. Me- Whirter of Indianapolis, president of the State bank division of the American Bankers association, when he opposed branch banking in principle and practice.
 Edmund Pratt, a former vice. board and now vice. president of the Marine Midland corporation of Buffalo takes issue with MT Me- Whirter and claims that there Is nothing in the Glass bill which suggests "a process of coercion and political preference" or the remov- al of equality of opportunity as between national and state banking institutions" And hepoints out that mine states already give state banks authority for statewide branch banking and some of them for going outside of state lines. Several state bank in fact have branches abroad today, and num- Der of state legislatures have had before them during the past win ter branch banking bills, against which there was not very much opposition but which were post poned to see what the federal gov ernment was going to do."
 Refuting the argument that with no check-rein on expansion, branch banks would spring up Ion every corner like filling stations" Mir Platt says that this Is wholly im- agination and is completely di- vorced from the provisions of sec- ton 19 of the Glass bill by the Vandenbery amendment which has already been accepted by the sem ate committee. No branches can be obtained where banks already ex-

branch banking without any of ita advantages and responsibilities.
 MT Platt also traces earlier branch banking experiences in this country, refutes the argument ok monopoIistic concentration of creo- 1t under branch banking, and dis- cusSes the relationship between tne country and the city banks unoer the proposed law.
 Thomas R. Preston of Chatta- nooga, a former president or the American Bankers association, m his article on the same subject Tn the current issue of the Journal lists the four major objections ad- vanced against branch banking ana follows each with his personal ob- servations. Concerning one Of these he says 'it has been contended that branch banking violates states rights. So far as can see, no states rights are involved in this question at all. The federal gov- ernment certainly had the right to establish national banks originally; then why can 1t not give these national banks the privilege Of branches? And if 50, why could not the states follow congress and give the same facflttles to state DaHkS except possibly across state lines? Why should not the states follow congress rather than ask congress to follow the states? In this pro- cedure what states rights are vio- lated? It is a fact that every coun- try in the world except the United States permits nationwide branch banking. Can all other countries be wrong and the United States alone right?"
 What is best for the public in- terest should be the controlling factor, he believes, rather than ob- jections arising from personal in- terests. And he adds, "my own opinion is that under the Glass bill the unit banks and the branch banks will work in harmony and neither will be a detriment to the nAh

REMNANTS MEN OF ToDAY
 SON HALLS .eTHIRD EMPIRE'' WHILE JUNKERS RULE FOR WILHELM

Adolf Hitler's National Socialists the Nazis, who breathe fire and blood. Since then he has branched out as Nazi stump speaker.
 once he spoke at Nazi meet where a Hitler, led, a Hohenzol- Tern could confidently follow. He asserted that Hitler had been sent by God to lead the German people.
 Meanwhile the junkers. through the coup that placed Won Papen and his monocle cabinet at the head of the government, enjoy a political strength they never have had before in the span of the re- public, and luxuriate in civic strength exceeding even the days of the empire.
 The former crown prince and his numerous family are quietly active in the midst of the turmoil that Is rocking the country. They appear frequently, say little and are allowing their loyal junkers to run the show.
 Naturally the kaiser never is quoted except in sofe whispers. by those who have seen him. Of course this has been going on ever since "the flight" and no one paid too much attention.
 With the spectacular change of the political picture in Germany, every one is paying attention now.
 There are those, well informed. who say Hitler is using Prince August for his own ends and never will affiliate with the monarchists.
 But the lightning grasp of power that his put Von Papen, Won Schliecher and the monocle men in the saddle convinces many that Germany Is headed for mon- achy-if not under the kaiser, then under the former crown prince.
