SOCIALISTS MAD
AT PRINCE HENRY
Kaiser's Brother Character
ICES Them AS the Enemy
of Germany.
Especial from United Press

(SQecldl 1rOm united FI0SS.J
Berlin, Feb. 13.-The Socialists and
the progressive press are showing the
keenest resentment, today, over Prince
Henry Of Prussia's characterization Of
the Socialists as 1.-The enemy in our
own country"
The Kaiser's brother made this
Characterization in an address, last
night, at military veterans banquet,
in which he said:
'.It is the duty Of all of us to rally
under the supreme war lord, the
Kaiser, and crush the enemy in our
own country. OF course, we respect
political convictions but as soon as
the orderly basis of such convictions
is abandoned in favor of revolutionary
methods we must uphold, by all
means, law and authority. OF course
you all know there will be an oppor-
tunity for each one of you to show
his true patriotism.
The Opportunity referred to will
be the election at the close of this
year when, it is feared by the govern
ment parties. the Socialists will make
sweeping gains. In the last election
the Socialists polled approximately
100000 votes, thus constituting the
strongest political party, numerically,
in Germany.
For this reason, it is believed.
Prince Henry acted unwisely in his
censure of them and his inferential
slur upon their patriotism.
