Wm. H Schofield, of Harvard university, so the professor declared in an address Wednesday. Professor Schofield was an exchange professor at Berlin for many years and became intimately ac- quainted with the kaiser, he said. “He forced German professor spread the seeds of his policie their teachings” Professor Schofield said, “and tried to force the exchange professors to aid him. “Whenever I talked with the em- peror he showed expectation that I would return to America and spread his gospel. “Ten years ago he told of his plans to manipulate the Jews and Catholic: and his dreams of a world empire. At that time he even predicted that the United States wou'd some time be caught unawares ort to eonscription—but he did not m to think that we would be fighting him when this happened.” PETROGRAD TO | BE TAKEN INA | ’ WEEK, FORECAST | ‘Washington, D.
