ditiOn. Have Been in that Country
Il Year Today.
The Hague, Nov. S.-Formes Emp
eror William came to Holland year
ago next Monday. Since that time
there has been no demand officially or
unofficially for his eXtradition or de-
livery up to the allies, nor has Hol-
land at all changed It's viewpoint to-
ward him.
aThc Associated Press learned this
today from sources that are unques-
tionably Hollands viewpoint as re-
CARDS William Hohenzollern may be
stated frankly as follows.
The Netherlands, which for CEN
turics has accorded political refuge to
all, considers the former emperor and
crown prince as refugees-not as roy
alty-but as persons entitled to the
same rights as any plain Johann Sch
midi who fled to Holland during the
war This principle is SO strongly held
by the government, and also by the
press of Holland that nothing is likely
to change it, it is asserted.
The Dutch government has reached
n determination as to its conduct IN
the event the surrender OF william
Hohenzolern is asked for. No ofiic-
ial statement has been, made in this
connection but the Associated Press
learns that Holland considers the
former emperor beyond cxtradition as
there Is no possible way legally TO
hold him as a criminal If they de-
sired TO insist on privilege, both the
Hohcnzollcrns would be free to go
where they liked, as they are III no
sense prisoners. However, because
they feel that they would emDarress
Holland even further they apparently
have agree to remain where they no"
are-thc father at Amerongen and his
son at Wieringen.
If the one-time emperor ana crown
prince desired to return to Germany
they would be permitted to go. Whllt
II Is possible that Frederick William
some day may return to Germany, or
fetal circles in The Hague are inclln
ed to the belief that William Hohen
zollern is content to settle down 10 tn
life of a country gentleman at iDoorn
where he has been permitted to buy
small estate because his long stay a
Amerongen seemed unfair to Coun
Won Bentinick whose castle he occu
pies.
Although a number Of purported III
terviews with the former emperor nav
been published, the fact is that II
never has spoken for publication sine

WHY CLOCK HAS
4 rs AS SYMBOL
Roman Numeral Representation
Would be w but ignorance
of King Makes 1t
Different

Clock dials usually represent tho
hours by use of Roman numerals,
but there Is one curious variation
The number in Roman numerals
is commonly represented by ~, but
on most clock dials 1t is represented
by four rs, as LII. There is a
reason for this. 1t traces back to
the ignorance OF king OF France
who ruled 600 years ago.
Tradition among watch and clock
makers has it that the clock dial was
first made by Henry WICK in the year
1870, and he made 1t for Charles V,
or Charles the Wise of France, the
Detroit News recalls. Charles was
not as wise as he looked or as his
name would suggest. When the dial
of the clock was submitted for his
approval he studied it rong and care
fully. Finally he remarked, 1.-THE
clock is all right with one exception.
The figure for o'clock should be
four rs instead OF w."
Your majesty is wrong" answer
ed Wick nv Is the proper symbol
for four"
Charles bristled up with offended
dignity, and Numbered at the timid
clockmaker 81 am never wrong.
Take this dial away and correct your
mistake"
There was nothing else to do. In
all his subsequent clock dials Wick
was compelled to use the symbol
ordered by his sovereign. Other
dialmakers followed his example and
the authority of stupid Charles ",
whose bones have been dust for cen
turtles, still rules the makers of the
most Of our watch and clock dials.
