EX-KAISER BELIEVES GERMANS AIDED CHRIST ON WAY TO CROSS William, Bible Research Stu- dent, Pictures Savior’s Suf- fering on Cross. wnis | Declares Centurian Who Ask- ed Cure for Servant Was Germanic Soldier. By the Associated Press. DOORN, Holland, May 15.—Former Emperor William, delving into one of his hobbies, namely, biblical research, has expressed belief that the centurion of Capernaum who implored Jesus to save his servant was a German and the servant was a German orderly. He also belleves that the leader of the Roman cohort in whose charge Jesus was placed by Pontius Pilate, as well as the centurion, who watched the death on the cross, were probably Germans. The text of a sermon which the for- mer Rsperior recently delivered here on a sundxzncommemanun( the German war victims gives the results of his re- searches. When he was Emperor he was also head of the Protestant State Church and as such sometimes under- took to preach. Resuming this custom he chose the Capernaum centurion as the subject of his Dcorn sermon. “Luther called the tall man who ac- costed Jesus at the lum market place captain,” said rmer Em- peror. “Luther, wl he chose this on, did not know the local and historical conditions in the Holy Land. Hence he used the military expression then in use in Germany. We now know that the story is that of a Roman leglon. More recent researches even re- veal that at that time a Germanic was stationed in Palestine. The captain, therefore, was a centurion or, according to our military parlance, a general staff officer.” This is how the former Emperor described the centurion: “The picture of the centurion is of such momentous significance and so impressive that it ought to be portrayed by a first-class artist. The captain there in full armor, probably wearing on his breast the decorations giving evidence of his meritorious services.” After paying tribute to the greatness of the Centurion’s faith and its reward by Jesus in healing the servant, William continued: ‘ “Germanic Legionnaires played a role FORMER EMPEROR WILLIAM. in the life of the Master also. On the sorrowful way to Golgotha, the leader of the cohorts is seized with such com- passion for the Master as He breaks down that he requisitioned Simon of Cyrene to carry the cross, Interceded for Legionnaires. “Under the cross we discover a Centurion halting on horseback. He, too, was probably a German. He is the first who, overwhelmed by the greatness of the suffering of the Savior, delivers the powerful confession ‘verily, this was a righteous man, the Son of God.' The intercession of the crucified Lord, ‘Father, forgive them, for they know not what they do!’ is not intended for the Jewish leaders, but for the poor Legionnaires, who, acting under the orders of their superiors, must inflict dire suffering upon the Lord. “We old soldiers may well feel proud of this intercession of the Lord.

Judge John P. McMahon fined Bever- to pay it because he was out of em- ployment and short of funds.
