BELIEVE KAISER PLANNING
TO RESUME THRONE
But Little Faith is Placed in j
Present German Government
By the Allied Statesmen

BY the Allied Statesmen
w. T. Mason, a United Press wal
correspondent. says there is deep
danger that Hohenzollern will try to
mount the throne of Germany again
if the delegates to the peace confer
ence succeeded in disturbing the har-
mony Of the Allies, or SOW discord
between America and the worlds
other democracies.
The German revolution shows evil
dence of having been too carefully
organized in too short time for it to
be accepted at its own value.
Hohenzollern's self-imposed exile
has taken him into the nearest neu-
trail country from which he could
make quick return if conditions
warranted a duplication of Napo-
Icons escape from Elba. A true
revolution should show far more
exuberance and far greater spirit
of rejoicing over the winning of
freedom than has yet been demon
strated in Germany.
When a nation has been crushed
into mediaevilism as Germany has
been, a certain amount Of inefficiency
is inevitable before the true road to
liberty is found. Germany has not
yet passed through transition period.
There is no indication that new ma
chinery of the government is being
used, although new names are re-
placing the old ministers.
If the revolution has been careful
ly planned long in advance by Ger
man efficiency experts. as final
piece of organization to save the old
autocratic spirit of the fatherland,
it wouldn't have been arranged any
differently than it has been.
A revolution that permits crown
prince to return to the head of its
army after renouncing the right OF
succession, is not revolution to be
trusted. A revolution that retains
in office all the autocratic army COM
manders from Won Hindenburg down,
is not a revolution to carry convic-
ton. A revolution that allows its
former emperor to cross to neutral
boundary whence he can convenient
" return after peace has been signed
is revolution to be held under sur
veillance.
Hohenzollern's surrender should
he demanded of Holland by America
and the Allies under the law OF ex-
tradition. After sentence of guilty
| of world murder has been imposed
on him. he should be imprisoned for
life-execution would be too lenient.
It would fix the conditions OF the
case if Great Britain would cede St.
Helena to the league of nations for
a prison for the former kaiser.
Thereafter St. Helena would serve as
a perpetual place of incarceration
for high offenders against the worlds
peace.
