Denver labor bulletin., 1917-12-08
Editor Denver Labor Bulletin:

In your last issue appeared a brief
letter from my old literary friend, Mr..
]. G. Schwalm, inclosing the "Kais-
er's" reply to Satan, all Of which was
very amusing, if not ludicrous.
1t is remarkable that the "kaiser"
was unable to appreciate the jocular
character of Satan's letter to him, but
instead treated it as though it came
from some correspondent, not from
Satan himself, the father of lies.
AS to all that, we have nothing fur
ther to say, except that it should be
taken in the allegorical sense intend
ed, and when so considered it is per-
fectly harmless.
But our friend Schwalm has seen
fit in his letter to compare the Ger
man constitution with our own, and
infers that the German organic law
confers more freedom on the people
than ours does, and that the kaiser
has less power than our president. /
beg to take issue with him on such
statements.
i concede that there is much mis-
apprehension respecting the freedom
of the German people, due to the writ
ings of sentimentalists and "sob
squad" authors, but the truth remains
that the German people are far from
free agents, and know but little of
| self-initiative so common in democrat
| ic countries.
Though Germany and Austria are
surrounded on all side by democracies,
they stand alone as mediaeval coun-
tries, seemingly incapable of realizing
what real freedom means.
| Inside there is an iron ring which
was constructed by plutocrary, and
destined to Withstand almost any pres
sure from without.
| We have heard recently much that
has been said about "democratizing"
Germany, which, of course, implies
she is far from that now, Mr.
Schwalm to the contrary notwith-
standing.
The Germany of today-the victor
over France in II, is what she is be-
cause the people have wished it, or
else they have been deceived.
! But parliamentary government does
not exist in Germany, and the people
seem to be satisfied with monarchial
rule. At least, we hear very little
complaint, but whether all is harmony
within there is much reason to doubt,
and were it not for the strict cen
sorship that prevails, we would prob
ably hear very much more than we
do.
But to appearances, the people pre-
fer to be ruled by supposed heroes,
and until defeat comes, the kaiser will
be regarded by them as their Ice
landic God
| History shows that the German en-
pire was welded by Bismarck in
"blood and iron"-brought together by
battle and the greed of conquest. To
accomplish this, Bismarck had re-
course to forged telegram that pro-
voked the war with France in 1870.
Hence, it is the national concept today
that the empire and it's vassal Aus
tria- Hungary, must be kept together
by the coercive rule of the sword.
Now, fighting nation cannot be

ago, and fixed it so that $4,000 East
Prussian agrarians can outvote 1884,
900 social democrats from the large
cities.
Prof. Hazen, one of Germany's
greatest historians, stated recently,
that, '.if every individual in Germany,
including the kings and dukes, wanted
change in the constitution and the
kaiser said No. they could not get it
without a revolution" Amendments
can be defeated by IA votes in the
federal council of So members, mostly
chosen by the kaiser. The kaiser can
disband the reichstag whenever it gets
balky.
To talk of, or expect, freedom of
the people under an absolute mon
archy, such as Hohenzollerism, is lit
tie short of absurd; freedom and abso-
lutism do not mix, and have nothing
in common, for they are diametrically
and eternally opposed.

THE GERMAN CONSTITUTION

democratic nation, for the two are
irreconcilable.
We recall that about twelve years
ago, when the kaiser visited England,
he gave an authorized interview to the
Daily Telegraph of London, in which
he stated that he was Gods annointed
one, that he was placed on the throne
by Divine will and Intervention, and
that his authority was absolute, etc.
You see, Mr.. Editor, the kaiser and
over France in Ills what she is be-
room for freedom of the people? This
interview created sensation in Eng
land, and was taken up by the reich
stag-the lower house-entering
mild protest and refusing to be re-
garded as sort of vermiform appen-
dix, and the chancellor quieted that
body by making the statement that
''the kaiser should be more careful in
the future for strategic reasons"
etc.
But the Bismarck constitution,
which followed the Franco-Prussian
war, remains today the same as when
adopted, indeed, the people are power
less to change it if they so desired.
1t is an adroit instrument, pretend
ing to give a great deal in the way
VI liDeTIy W IHe DeOpie, buI tNti hetP-
ing in mind and warning that the Ger
man empire must be maintained by
force of arms. 1t retains the king
who must be from Prussia, and ex-
officio emperor, the sole authority to
declare war for "defense" of the ma
ton. This is why every speech in
the reichstag on the war invariably
characterizes it as "war of defense
forced upon the fatherland," when
everybody knows that Germany was
the aggressor from the very start
But the German congress was not
consulted in declaring war, and yet
Mr.. Schwalm has the temerity to say
that the people are more free, and
the kaiser more limited in power than
the president of the United States.
But in many respects the German
constitution is liberal. The people
elect their representatives, almost 400
of them The different dutchies, ETC.
are given home rule, and what we
term states rights. But when it
comes to Imperialism, to the matter
of foreign policies, to the right to
declare war, this organic law is a
masterpiece.
The reichstag is wholly out of the
reckoning, except to vote the funds
When the kaiser thinks danger threat
ems, or is bent on conquering Europe,
or ruling the world, he is supreme.
The bundesrath, or federal council,
takes the place of parliament at such
times, and the people have nothing
to say or do, but furnish the military
equipment.
This bundesrath is mainly created
by the kaiser himself, and both this
and the reichstag is under Prussian
control.
That is why the popular branch, the
reichstag, is called the "hall of
echoes" 1t can talk and threaten,
but wholly under the heel of the Prus-
sian agrarian, it can do no more.
