ON HANGING THE KAISER By DE WITT MACKENZIE (Copyright, 1929, Associated Press) Talk of hanging the kaiser was | being bandied about pretty freely at the time the armistice was forg- ed in the white heat of bitter hat- | reds. A certain number of people were bent on using the “all high- est” pretty roughly; likewise the German crown prince. Well, those advocaies oi the hempen rope didn't know it, but the kaiser could have been disposed of | long before without going to all the trouble of erecting a scaffold. There were many occasions dur- ing the war which the emperor and his eldest son, and the entire Ger- man high command, for that mat- ter, could have been blown to atoms, had the allies desired to take advantage of the opportunity. But the latter never had an idea of doing such a thing. Thereby hangs this tale, told out of school, which may surprise some people, So far as the kaiser himself was |in glass houses shouldn't throw | stones. . The main idea of war, as . interpreted by the chap who had to use a bayonette in the late quar- |rel is to kill and destroy. There can pe, auG were, certair limits put on this, however. Buck fprivnles were made to be Kkilled So were minor officers. But don’ | forget that the official homes of | supreme commands were immune | T hasten to add that I am not cast ing any reflection on the bravery of men at headquarters. On thc contrary. Many of them were veteran soldiers who had won thei spurs in bloody conflict. By mutual tacit consent the gun- ners and bombers of both sides left headquarters agone. : I could give you plenty of ex amples to illustrate my statement ‘but perhaps one typical instancc {will do. Take the case of Britist 2nd army headquarters in Cassel Flanders. The hamlet of Cassel nestles or the top of a little hill which rise: PRINCE HENRY | PASSES AWAY Kaiser Is Dead—Known in the United States (Continued from Page One) was in 1895, when he represented { his imperial brother at the corona- Moscow of Nicholas II of | Bk Pt. Cldy | concerned, there was nothing start- { ffom the plain like an ice-cream ling in the fact that nobody triedc0one. ~ On the highest point o to blow him up during his rambles |¢round in Cassel was a huge build about the occupled territory. The!ns used as army headquarters. I allies weren't barbarians. All at- tacks on non-combatants were atro- cities which made the right-minded people shudder with horror. And most folk are r!ghtqmnded, when all is said and done. Beyond this, there were some reasons which perhaps were not 60 humanitarian. The killing of a non-combatant personage would have raised a , storm of protest against the country which perpe- ’ trated the deed, and the various nations in the conflict had to be careful not to provide material for adverse propaganda. Also such a killing would have resulted in re- prisals in kind. Reprisals, once started, are hard to stop. No, it wasn't the safety of the kaiser which was surprising. What 1 really started out to tell pou about was this: There was a tacit understanding between the allies and the Ger- manic powers that general head- quarters on both sidse were to be immune from bombing and gunfire. 1 said a TACIT understanding. Call it an unwritten law if you will ‘You don't always have to put your name to a gold embossed document to make a bargain binding. i The lads in the trenches weren't | immue. Neither were the bat- talion, nor even the divisional head- quarters. But army headquarters, | and everything above that, were as/| fieuetul as a summer’s eve under | i mune. il:)yl r. | boots |perched there like a golf ball or la tee. The fighting lines were only a few miles away. A German aviator could hav dropped a love letter on the roo of that headquarters any time h: wanted to, not to speak of bombs But they left headquarters alone Why? Here is the answer, and ' give it to you in the language of ar ex-officer of the German air force a man whom I knd¥ well anc whose word is unimpeachable. H¢ said: “We never touched Cassel becaus we had strict verbal orders from our high command that Cassel anc 2nd army headquarters were im- This was in accordancc with the tacit understanding tha’ if we didn’t bomb allied headquar- ters, the allies wouldn’t bomb ou: headquarters. We did drop =z bomb by accident’on Cassel on on: occasion I recall, and the next day the British gave us a dose of ow own medicine.” ————————— CAPITAL DYE WORKS Very latest methods in Frenc Dry Cleaning and Dyeing.

Mrs. Nicholas Longworth, to christen the Meteor. Prince Henry made an extended tour of Amer can cities and everywhere was ac- | corded enthusiastic receptions. Three and one-half years younger than the former Kaiser, Prince Henry was born August 14, 1862, in the new palace at Potsdam. He was the second of five children of the late Emperor Frederick III, his mother being Princess Victoria, } daughter of Queen Vict: of Eng- and. : With the former waiser he at- tended the “gymnasium” or high school at Cassel and then began his long service in the navy. By 1895 he had attained the rank of rear admiral and was assigned as marine inspector, and later as com- mander of the second Far Eastern sruiser squadron. Departing for the Orient in De- cember, 1897, Prince Henry assum- ed command of the East Asia fleet. Two years later he was promoted 0 vice admiral and in 1901, a year affer his return to Germany, he was raised to the rank of admiral. He served as chief of the marine tation of the Baltic until 1906, when he was given command of he active high scas fleet. In 1887, Prince Henry married 2rincess Irene of Hessen, a daugh- | er of Grand Duke Ludwiz IV of | Jessen and Princess Alice of Great Britain, They had two sons, ’rince Waldemar, born in 1889, and rince Sigismund, born in 1896. Banqueted In New York One of the features of Prince Ienry’s visit to the United States n 1902 was a banquet in his honor t New York, arranged jointly by he American Press and industrial nd commercial circles. In the ourse of his remarks at that event he prince related that before he »ft Germany his imperial brother old him “In America the gentle- nen of the press rank with my ommanding generals.” From New York, Prince Henry 7ent to Washington, visited the omb of George Washington, on 7hich he placed a wreath, and then segan his tour which included vis- ts to cities in Pennsylvania, Ohio, {entucky, Tennessee, Indiana, Wis- onsin and Missouri as well as up- tate New York. He also made a pecial trip to Boston and Harvard Jniversity, during which Harvard sonferred upon him the honorary | legree of doctor of laws. Lover of Sports { Prince Henry was a lover of| ports and was especially interest- xd in the technical side of auto- | mobiling and aviation. He was: isually fond at every important | automobile race in the different ‘ountries of Europe and occasion- lly entered a car of his own.

His passing a pilot’s examination and personal- ly holding the stick during many cross country flights and his es- tablishment of the “Prince Henry Prize” for aviators did much to aken German interests and {establish confidence in airplanes. |In recogrition of his services to the science of aviation he was wwarded honorary doct degrees {by the Berlin Polytechnic Institute at Charloftenburg and the Uni- versity of Kiel, Visited Mexico One of the few occasions that he left his estate since the revolu- {tion was in the autumn of 1926, when he journeyed to Mexico and ! was cordially received by the Ger- man colony there.

The North Pacific Trading and Packing Company was organized by the Sisson family, California caftlemen, and other San Francis- co capitalists more than fifty years ago. The majority of the capital stock was still in the hands of members of the Sisson family and Will Hale at the time of the recent transfer. The latter had been Su- perintendent of the cannery for many years except for two or three years when John P. Lindsay, Alaska pioneer, occupied that position while Mr. Hale was engaged in canning vegetables and fruit in California.
