GIVES VIEWS
ON WILHELM
Former Ruler of Germany
Roughly Handled in
Memoirs

Doom. Holland, Jan. 5.-William
Hohenzollcrn is not very kindly
treated in the memoirs of Count
Robert Zcdlitz- Truet2shlcr, his form
er court marshal, which are today
being read with unusual interest in
Holland. The Count says the former
emperor was so suspicious of Eng
land at all times, and so uneasy
about English public opinion, that
he insisted upon reading personally
all communications addressed to him
from England.
Letters of Englishmen frequently
put him into a terrible rage. One
such communication in 1903 anger
ed him especially. An EnglishMan,
whose name the writer of the me-
moirs withholds, wrote: Il advise
you to give up trying to be the head
of nation Of G0,000,00 people. Be-
come the head of 4 football team,
or a cricket club. That would fit you
better"
Count Zedlitz-T ruetzs chler credits
Williams mother with having said
of him: ''Do not think there is any
other motive than vanity for my
sons actions
In February, 1909, the former court
marshal wrote this about the then
emperor: "The emperor more and
more gets out of the habit of regular
work. He gets up late, has break
fast at nine and then only with
great displeasure listens to what his
ministers tell him. He has lur CHI
at one, and then rides in his carriage

Here on January 25th

"The Perfect FOOL" starring Ed.
Wynn, the famous comedian, is one
of the biggest shows that Bismarck
theater-goers will have the oppor-
tunity to see, II. P. Hill, advance
agent, declared in Bismarck today.
The production, a musical comedy, is
coming here January 25.
I'VE are now playing in Seattle to
capacity houses said Mr.. Hill. "The
show makes few stops on its cross
country trip. 1t will play Spokane,
Butte, Billings, Bismarck, Fargo, and
then goes to Winnipeg, Duluth and
the Twin Cities.
"There are so people in the show
We carry three baggage cars, two
sleepers, so stage hands will be
needed of which 10 are carried with
the show, there are four wardrobe
women with the show and in addi
ton We'll get six local dressers.
There will be IL trucks needed to
carry the scenery and $50 ruaks,
and it will take four hours to set up
the show"
The show, Mr.. Hill asserted, is
good clean fun and music through
out. Ed Wynn stamping down his

Dispute Over Cost of Bonus

Made by Green.

The breach between the Senate
and House, caused by inability to
agree on tax reduction legislation,
was widened today by differences

Chairman Green, Of the House
Ways and Means Committee.
charged that deliberate effort
to misrepresent the cost of the
bonus" under the House bill was
being made, referrig to estimates
made public by the Senate Finance
Committee.
Calling attention to statement
that an American Legion actuary,
a Mr.. Hess, had estimated the cost
Of the bonus at $4,000. 900 900 in.
stead Of the $3.50, 200, 900 figured
by the Ways and Means Commit
tee, Green said:
"Mr. Hess did not so state. On
the contrary, his figures are in sub.
stantial accord with those of the
actuary of the Veterans Bureau
who estimated $2,050, 100000 for the
insurance certificates.
What Mr.. Hess did say in effect
was that if the payments were not
authorized, but were all deferred
under the end Of the insurance
period, they would amount to
$1,000 900 900.
"He agreed with the actuary of
the Veterans Bureau as to the
sum of the actual payments re-
quired to be made into the sinking
fund to meet the death losses and
