Gerard Is Not Surprised.

New ICrk.-The escape of the for
mer crown prince, Frederick William.
Of Germany from Weiringen was an
action to be expected, according to
James w. Gerard, formerly United
States Ambassador to Germany. Mr..
Gerard said that persons familiar with
German lultur and Prussianism had
looked for some such move by one OF
the HoienG0llerns.
Serious complications are possible,
Mi. Gerard pointed out, as result OF
the ex-croWn princes return TO his
country. ANY movement, however, to
restore the family OF the former Ger
man emperor to power would inevita-
bly, fail in the end, he believed.

FINAL ACT Ar WEIMkn
LACKS HEROIC TOUCH
End of Titanic Teuton Drama Is
Disappointing and Un- o..
theatrical.

Weimar.-The world war is over;
the greatest tragedy of the ages was
ended in the Grand Ducal Theater and
Opera House of historic Weimar when,
sitting on tie stage of the blue, white
and gold theater, the new German
"signing government" headed by lhe
professional union labor secretary,
Gustav Bauer, had German pen
placed in it's hand with which to ap-
pend Germany's signature to the Ncr-
sailles document by the National
Assembly.
The vote, which stood 237 for~tle
acceptance of the terms Of the Allies
to 1873 against ii, five not voting, re-
Elected the war WEAKNESS Of eN-
hausted Germany, the yeurning for
peace, the recognition Of defeat ana
the unacceptable and inevitable end.
Thirteen minutes later tie Assem-.
bly,, by a vote of 236 to 80, expressed
it's confidence in the Government
which cOurageously had assumed The
responsibility, counting certain un.
popularity, of placing its name to The
treaty. THE National Assembly is
in agreement with the Cove cnmert in
SignIng the peace treaty" WIN tmcse
words the curtain was rung down ON
the world war as Il spectacle.
'rhe closing stage in the last act OF
the titanic drama in many respects
was disappointing, undramatic and
not even theatrical. After her re.
lnnrl;able fight and after her people
had endured untold suffering. Ger.
imuny submitted without heroics.
There were grave faces and eyes that
EXPRESSED suffering, but the majority
Of those present reflected little reaIi'
zation OF what the occasion meant for
Germany.
Six speakers, Bauer, Groeber,
Hasse, Schiller, POsad0Wski and kah!,
representing the six parties in the
Assembly, three for signing the treaty
and three against, addressed the AS
sembly, but not single great speech
appropriate to the occasion was WRIT
ten into history, not a note touched
the heartstrings or awakened the
emotions Of the Assembly or Of the
crowded galleries.
