Konig und Kaiser

Wilhelm Hohenzollern, former All-Highest of Germany, still considers himself King of Prussia and Emperor of Germany, Konig von Preussen und Deutsche Kaiser.

Some Leipzig student players recently visited him at Doom. Said Wilhelm, addressing them: "The only thing that bears me up here is the constant growth of the monarchist movement in Germany. I cannot understand why my abdication was taken as a matter of course by the German people when I had done such immeasurable good for the country, always seeing to it that even the poorest had a sufficient income. I don't know how I can face my grandfather. . . . My hands were clean in the great struggle which was caused by Russia. Our May offensive was the greatest success of the war and will shine forever in history!"

The students said that most of the rooms in the ex-Kaiser's Doom palace were simply furnished, but some were quite as pretentious as those in the palace at Potsdam. In the dining hall hung a motto: Willkommen wer ein guter Monarchist ist , welcome to any good monarchist.
