enzollerns killed your father, just as
il viii kill you, and you became the
ruler Of Germany and tool Of mine
sooner than expected.
TO assist you and farther hasten
my work I sent you three evid spirits.
Nietzsche, Treitschke and later Bern
hardi, whose teachings infiamed the
youths of Germany, who in good time
would be willing and loyal subjects
and eager to spill their blood and
pull your chestnuts, yours and mine;
the spell has been perfect you cast
your ambitious eyes toward the Med
iterranean Egypt India and the Dar-
danelles and you began your great
railway to Bagdad. but the ambitious
archduke and his more ambitious wife
stood in your way. 1t was then that
| sowed the seed in your heart that
blossomed into the assassination of
the Duke and his wife, and all hell
smiled when it saw how cleverly you
saddled the crime on to Serbia. |
saw you set sails for the fjords Of
Norway and / knew you would prove
an alibi. How cleverly done, SO much
like your noble grandfather, who al
SO secured an assassin to remove old
King Frederick of Denmark, and la
ter robbed that country of two prov
inces that gave Germany an oppor-
tunity to become a naval power. Muir
der is dirty work but it takes Hoh-
enzollern to make away and get by.
"Your opportunity was at hand;
you set the world on fire and bells of
hell were ringing; your rape on Bel
gium caused much JOY, it was the be-
ginning, the foundation of perfect
hell on earth, the destruction of noble
cathedrals and other infinite works of
art was hailed with joy in the infer
nal regions. You made war on friends
and foe alike and the murder of civ
ilians shower my teachings had borne
fruit. Your treachery toward neu-
| tral nations hastened a universal up
! heaval, the thing / most desired. Your
under-sea warfare is a master stroke,
from the smallest mackerel pot to
the great Lusitania you show no favo-
rites; as a war Lord you stand SUI
preme, for you have no mercy; you
have no consideration for the baby
clinging to its mothers breasts as
/ they both GO down into the deep to-
gether, only to be torn apart and
leisureIy devoured by sharks down
among the corals.
81 have strolled over the battlefelds
4 of Belgium and France. have seen
your hand of destruction everywhere;
| it's all your work, super-fend that
made you. / have seen the fields of
Poland; now a Wilderness fit for
proving beasts only; no merry chill
dren in Poland now; they all sue
sumbed to frost and starvation-I
drifted down into Galicia where for
merly Jews and Gentiles lived hap
PLY together; | found but ruins and
ashes; | felt curious pride in my
pupil for it was all above my (expecta-
tion. / was in Belgium when you
drove the peaceful population before
you like cattle into slavery; you sep
arated man and wife and forced them
| to hard labor in trenches. | have
seen the most fendish rape committed
on young women and those who were
forced into maternity were cursing
the father of their offspring and
began to doubt if my own inferno
was really up to date.
/ "You have taken millions of dol
lars from innocent victims and called
| it indemnity; you have lived fat on

real owners away to starvation. You
have strayed away from all legalized
war methods and introduced code
of your own. You have killed and
robbed the people of friendly nations
and destroyed their property. You
are a liar, a hypocrite and buffer
Of the highest magnitude. You are
a part of mine and yet you pose as
a personal friend of God. All, Will
helm, you are wonder. Yon wan

and leave nothing for coming gen.
erations.
81 was amazed when / saw you
form a partnership with the impos-
sible turk, the chronic killer of Chris
tians, and you devout worshipper
in the Lutheran church. | confess,
Wilhelm. you are puzzle at times.
A Mohammedan army, commanded by
German officers. assisting one anoth-
er in massacreing Christians in a
new line of warfare. When Prus-

being disemboweled by swarthy
Turk, committing a double murder
with one cut of his saber, and calmly
stand by and see house full of in
nocent Armenians locked up, the
house saturated with oil and fired,
then my teachings did not stop with
you. but have beeen extended to the
whole German nation. | confess my
