Exercises Conducted In Honor Of Former Wilhelm Celebrates Hisi PROBLEM ARISES Seventy - Fifth Anniver- sary Surrounded By Members Of Family (By Associated Press) DOORN, Netherlands, Jan. 27.—Exercises in honor of former Kaiser Wilhelm’s 75th birthday were opened by Rev. Ludwig Schneller at Doorn House today with a sermon in which he said that “only the imperial crown” is missing “from the new Reich.” The Cologne minister spoke of the service attend- ed only by old friends of the former royal family. “Wil- helm is like a wanderer who stands upon the summit of God that is immune to any storm,” he said. Although the celebration was kept almost ‘entirely a family affair, the village was in a state of high excitement. The kaiser was smiling and cordial as he accepted congratulations from rela- tives and household mem- bers.
