EX-KAISER AND SON
HATED IN GERMANY
Lives Would Be Worth Little
if They Tried to Go
to Berlin.
DUTCH ATTITUDE CITED
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
LONDON, November 22.-From q spe-
cial investigation in western Germany,
tho correspondent Of the Daily Mail at
Tho Hague has ascertained that there
is considerable hostility against the
former emperor and his eldest son. The
correspondent says that after William
Hohenzollern had entered Holland a
thousand German soldiers arrived at
the frontier and demanded that they
be allowed to pursue and kill him.
They were turned back by the Dutch
frontier guards.
The correspondent does not believe
that the former emperor could reach
Berlin in safety. no matter what guar
antees might be given. The former
crown prince is universally hated also,
and is greatly despised. His life in
Germany, the correspondent declares,
would not be , orth an hours pur-
che Sc. He is under the closest guard
tack.
Much publicity is being given to
Eitel Friedrich and August Wilhelm,
respectively. the second and fourth
sons OF the former emperor, and the
correspondents impression is that the
royalists' hope is that through them
dynastic sympathies can be main
tanned.
Dutch Position Explained.
PARIS. November % (Havas).-The
Dutch legation today published a note
containing a declaration by the presi-
dent of the Netherlands council of
ministers to the chamber of deputies,
saying that the former German en-
peror entered Dutch territory after
his abdication as a private parsonage.
The note says the kind Of refuge
granted to him is similar to that
the government could not make any
exception on account of his former
position when he asked to be ad-
mitted to Dutch territory.
This does not prevent the govern
ment, says the note, from carrying
former emperor does not commit any
abuse of asylum which would render
hospitality detrimental to the in
terestS of the country. The note adds
that the Netherlands government does
not believe that foreign governments,
benefit Of Dutch refuge, will refuse
to respect national tradition or to re-
member instances when they them
selves gave hospitality to dethroned
monarchs.
In addition. the note says that the
instance left the park of the Ameron-
gen Castle. where he is interned.

Plea for Food Saving.

Commissioner Brownlow, also an
advocate of the municipal wholesale
market plan, made a plea for food
conservation, declaring it to be the
patriotic duty Of every American to
save food as assiduously now as be-
fore the war. The world Is one COM
munity now, he declared, and IL this
country does not do its duty by the
rest Of humanity 1t will not escape
the dire consequences Of a world
wrecked by famine and anarchy. He
said the food council is well equipped
to knit Washington's communities to-
gether for effective work in saving
food, lowering prices and improving
the food situation generally.
Food Administrator Wilson's ad-
dress dealt largely with tho impor.
tance Of food saving. The saving Of
civilization, he said, depends upon
getting food to Europe quickly. Mr..
Wilson said he had found the major
ity Of Washington's dealers honest
and desirous Of doing their part in
the war emergency.
