KAISER'S FATHER WAS
AFRAID TO LETT SON MIX
! IN GERMAN AFFAIRS IS
REVELATION OF LETTER
EMPEROR FREDERICK DlscLos-
ED VIEW OF SONS lNcAPAcl-
TN TO REIGN TWO YEARS BE-
FORE HIS DEATH.

Beilm.-(Correspondence of the
Associated Press. )-Less than two
years before William II, the former
German Emperor. came to the throne
OF Germany, his father Frederick
considered 1t dangerous TO allow him
to have any hand in the foreign pali'
tics OF the German Empire. Fred,
eric; in fact, had an extremely low
regard for his sons mental equip
ment and ability, and it is frankly
set forth in a letter written to Bis
marek, September 2S. 1886, from
portofino, Italy, and which has just
been made public.
Williams principal defects at that
time, as his father saw them, were
his habit of making snap judgments
in a manner tending to exaggera-
tion,' lact Of actual learning" which
was still full Of gaps" and ian in
clination to c~onceit."
Here is the text of the letter.
My son, Prince Wilhelm. has
without my previous knowledge ex-
pressed the wish to His Majesty
William ! Frederick etc. Frederick
then was still the crown prince) to Be-
come better acquainted with
the operations of our armistaries
diring the coming winter, and /
learn that 1t is intended to employ
him in the Foreign Office.
Inasmuch as / have received no
official communication to that eff
feet, I am compelled to turn to you
n confidence to. learn what has real
ly been decided on, and further to
declare that, despite the fact that II
am in favor in principle Of intro
duction of my son into questions of
higher administration, / am decidedly
opposed to having him begin at the
Foreign Office. For in view of the
Importance Of the tasks to be en-,
trusted to the prince, l consider it
imperative that he shall first Of all
thoroughly learn the internal eondi-
tions Of his W land and have the
feeling that he understands them
thoroughly before he, with his habit
OF making snap judgments tending
to exaggeration, busies himself with
politics.
Ills actual learning is still full
Of gaps, and at the same time he
lacks the proper foundation, and for
this reason it is absolutely necessary
that his education be improved and
completed. If he could be assigned
to the office Of a civilian advisory
official. and if he could later be con-
nected with or even given a post in
one Of the administrative minister
les. it would serve this purpose.
But, in view Of the immaturity as
well of the inexperience OF my eldest
son, and also Of his inclination to
conceit I am compelled to declare
that it is absolutely dangerous to
bring him into touch with questions ]
Of foreign policy at this time. And
while begging you to consider my ]
communication as strictly confident
tial, ] count on "your support in this ]
which causes me grave an
