Wilhelm Approved

Monarchists and Republicans alike spoke thrice with approbation last week of the abdicated Crown Prince Wilhelm because:

He purchased an airplane and looped-the-loop over Berlin last week under the tutelage of famed War Ace Commander Udet.

He was smoking a cigaret when he landed at the Tempelhoffer field, Berlin, but at once obeyed with good grace the peremptory and officious command of an ordinary policeman: "Put out the cigaret! You can't smoke on this aviation field."

He was never once detected in company with Geraldine Farrar--also in Berlin last week. Though lacking even a shred of evidence, the Communist newspaper, Welt am Abend, not only recalled onetime famed innuendoes respecting the intimacy of Geraldine and Wilhelm (circa 1902) but even remarked: "It is a very peculiar fact that his former imperial and royal highness and the American singer Farrar, arrived on the same day."
