]MONARCHISTIC MOVEMENT OF
 PAN-CERMANS
BY COL. WINFIELD JONES

| WASHINGTON, Jan. 29.-(Special Correspondence).- Are the pan-Ger- mans and the Mittel-europa advocates in the German republic plotting to bring back a Hohenzollern emperor and again start out on a conquest of the world when the time is ripe? This question is now being dis cussed in Washington diplomatic cir cles and among members of congress, who have been reading foreign cables to the effect that the restoration of King Constantine to the Greek throne has greatly strengthened the pan-Ger- man and monarchistic movements in Germany.
 Every observer in Washington is agreed on one fact-Germany bitterly regrets the World war and this regret is deep in the breast of the German people, but the sorrow is not for the war per SC, but because the German Empire lost the war. Germany grieves not for the losses of the war and the misery caused other nations, but be- cause she lost and the Mittel-europa and the Berlin to Bagdad dreams van | ished in the cannon smoke. Germany | is unrepentant. Were she able she would again make gigantic throw for dominion of the world. The only reason she does not Is simply because under present conditions she cannot. This is the general opinion in Wash ington.
 Seating of Constantine on the Greek throne has greatly encouraged the pan-Germans, who are identical in every individual with the German monarchists and the junkers, it is be, lieved here. These Germans see in the restoration of Constantine an in, dication that the European nations are disposed to return to the divine rule of kings" They hope that the return of the Greek king will be fol, | lowed In time by the return of the

They are now carrying on an intrigue, it is re, | ported, to re-establish the monarchy in Austria, an Austria that has been reduced to the most impotent political entity in Europe but an Austria that nevertheless should have another king, according to the pan-Germans With a king on the Austrian throne 1t would be much easier to overturn the German republic and bring back the Hohenzollerns. ..
 It is said Bavaria will be the first German state to recall It's exiled roy alty and soon after that Prussia and the other German states will ask their erstwhile and discredfted rulers to return. This will be followed by the re-establishment of the old German Empire, and after that empire is again firmly established and the tremen dous war losses In men and material recouped by a Germany known to be the most industrious and patient country on the globe then the next bid for world dominion will follow.
 Will it be possible for this to occur in this generation? Some members of congress and officers of the gen. eral staff believe it will be impossible for Germany to "come-back" within a half century. By that time it is | hoped that the world will be in some sort of a peace league that will pre- vent any one nation, no matter how 1 powerful from starting a war. Others | believe that such is the recuperative power and industry of the German peo pie, spurred on by the old vision of worldwide empire, and with this ad, ditiOn stimulus of revenge, that the
