GROWN PRINCE THINKS HE HAS
 RIGHT TO TRIAL
By FRANK D. MASON.

(COpyright by l. N. S-J
 Weiringen, July 12-"What would happen if I should demand of the German supreme court. now trying the so-called war criminals, that m asmuch as my name is the first on the extradition list. they immediately call my name and try me?"
 With this question the German Crown Prince answered my inquiry as to what had happened to the Al lies case against him. and his atti- tude toward it.
 Accusations have been made against me, which, while they are ri dicuIous, should be put to the test and cleared up, it is my right, llke that of any other citizen that the changes should either be proved or formally dropped"
 Would you also volunteer to stand trial by a neutral court 9" I asked
 s'Certainly. I can promise you that the trial would develop some inter esting surprises on the question or the responsibility for the war. AS far as the charges against me per sonaIIy are concerned they are sim ply absurd. I am accused of having caused a massacre at Fest-Commery, a place in which have never been, or I am accused of pillglng.
 ''I have witnesses who can give some surprising testimony. I've done countless things for the citizens of the occupied territory and I firmly believe that their gratitude is not dead"
 The Crown Prince began to discuss the propaganda campaign directed against him during the war, with a frankness which shows he has no il- lusions about the stories circulating about him.
 '.As far as my responsibility for the war is concerned, that's too rid1c- ulous. In September, 1914, foresaW that the war would be prolonged to infinite length and made no secret of my opinion that it would be better to come to an understanding with our antagonists.
 the conclusion of a treaty with either Russia or England. Such a treaty would have prevented the war, but my influence was not great enough to make this program effective.
 'I knew King Edward well, and had several conversations with him about the AngIo-German relations. Germany is pressing us too hard commercially he complained. It must stop or we will have to put a stop to it. The terms of the recent ultimatum show how thoroughly King Edwards program has been
 of we had wanted war why didn't we precipitate it during the Boer war or the RuSSo-JapaneSe war? It is evidently a little known fact that be- fore the war France maintained a larger army than Germany, although France had a population of approxi- mately 45.O0O,0O0 and Germany had nearly 70,O0O,0OO.
 -HoIlweg insisted that the Kaiser carry out his plans for trip to Norway despite the Sarajevo murder My father did not wish to leave Berlin. but the Chancellor in sisted that as the trip had been an nounced a change of program might arouse suspicion in the neighborins countries. My father has since bit terly regretted that he did not remain in Berlin at that time. I am firmly convinced that his presence in the German capital in those critical days would have made it possible to have reached a peaceful settlement.'

STAMFORD TO
 HAVE NEW FORM
 OF GOVERNMENT
Council Manager P l a n Adopted By Vote of 1,01O to 564-Impromptu
 Celebration

The voters of Stratford decided yesterday at the special election in favor of the council manager plan of government by the overwhelming vote of 1,O10 to 564. This will result in an entirely new and modern form Of government in the town after the fall election Predictions had been freely made by both sides and at times the contest bade fair to contain somewhat of bitterness. All partisan lines seemed to be wiped away last nounced and all hands joined in an impromptu celebration in honor of the occasion.
 James La1Iy who has been first selectman of the town for some time was the first man out of the town hall at the conclusion of the count and he announced the victory for >the council manager plan advocates in a manner peculiarly his own. Together with Harold Lowell, the Town Clerk, he made his way to the headquarters of the charter committee and extend- ed his congratula tions over the vic hOry gained.
 Frank Sammis was wildly enthusi- astic over the result of the election and presented tin horns right and left to his fellow townspeople- Sammis has been one of the most enthusiastic adherents of the new plan. His son Donald has been a very large factor In the success scored yesterday. Dur ing the past winter he has been con- duct1ng meetings and explaining the various provisions of the charter to the voters. Leroy Lewis has been working with him.
 A great deal of the publicity was handled by Robert Turney and he proved himself an excellent press agent He was not only a good press agent for the charter but he is work ing hard to secure better fire protec- ton in Stratford
 The women were by no means Backward in voting yesterday nearly live hundred casting their votes From every indication it was rather evident that the majority of them favored the new plan

Berne, July 11.-Uniforrn regula- ton throughout Switzerland of auto mobile, bicycle and motorcycle traf- fic and formulation of aerial naviga- tion rules will be undertaken by the federal government under two consti- tutional amendments voted at the re- cent elections.

MAY1.,9 8.

We wonder last Sunday who
thought of May |, 1882 On Sun.
day, May /, 1898, % years ago,
American warships, under COM
mand of Commodore George
Dewey, steamed into the Bay of
Manila and destroyed the Spanish
feet, which was under the com.
mand of Admiral Monteio.
The year following We had a big
celebration of the anniversary.
Then Dewey came back and we
had another celebration. We then
gave Dewey house. Then Dewey
got married and turned his house
over to his bride, and everybody
got mad at Dewey and some de.
manded that the house be taken
from him. Then Dewey lived for
many years not much honored by
his fellow citizens.

PROSPECTS GLOOMY

The farmers are starting their
crops this spring under anything
but encouraging conditions. There
is nothing to indicate or promise
a fair or just compensation for
their surplus stuff when their crops
are made and gathered. Prices of
practically everything the farmer
grows are way down, and there is
but little hope of such relations
being established between this and
foreign countries that will open
up a market for the surplus pro-
ducts of the farm. Unless there is
demand for the surplus there can
be no increase in prices.
The late spring and the continued
cold and rainy weather are also
very discouraging to the farmer.
Planting is greatly delayed, the
ground is cold and wet, and stuff
planted can do no good until the
rains cease and the weather warns
up. This delay shortens the time
for making a crop and will, no
doubt, cut short the acreage.
The farmer, however, can feel
assured that he will be able to
grow some crop, and an entire
failure hardly ever occurs, and if
he is wise in his planting, he will
likely grow plenty to eat and feed
his stock, even though his purplus
may be short.
