 Father at Doorn
Rx Associatsd Press

The Hague January 16.--Frederick Viii liam, former crown prince of Germany
 in an interview given the editor of a
 German weekly published in the Neither
 lands, gives the reasons why he does not return to Germany, why his wife
 does not join him in his sojourn in Weir
 engen and why he does not join his Doorn Frederick William also sets forth his plans regarding the education of his sons.
 sNaturally I would be glad to return to Germany and I would be happy if could devote myself to agriculture. par ticularly to horse breeding Y the former crown prince is quoted as saying. 's would rejoice to associate with the learned men at Breslau university and regain what lost during the war. and at Weirengen. I would like to use what little power I have to help build up the fatherland, but that cannot be. My many friends in the fatherland and abroad would see my hand in every deed which others might begin, but of which I, perhaps. would know nothing at all.
 T cannot go to my parents at Doorn Our opponents are continually trying to put us in the position of being ready to set the world on fire and if we were to- gether then. in the eyes of our oppo- lnents the overthrow of the world would | be a question of but short time. \ "As for buying an estate in Holland, where would get the money, particu- larly in view of the low rate of German iexchange."
