LINK HITLERISM TO REVIVAL OF EMPIRE PLANS Ex-Kaiser Is Known to Have Aided Nazi Leader. Folloaine !i another of the bv Frederick Kuh. United Pres* Berlin minseer. depleting: the present scenes in Oermsn political life. BY FREDERICK KCH United Press Staff Correspondent (Copvrlßht. 1932. bv United Press) BERLIN, June 11.—Adolph Hitler is playing an important part in the German political drama which may restore the Hohenzollems to the “all highest” position they held in the German empire. It is significant that Wilhelm’s entourage has never refuted the familiar reports that Doom house, the ex-kaiser’s residence in exile, is helping to finance Hitler. And there is the crown prince's espousal of Hitlerism, and Prince August Wilhelm’s election as a member of the Prussian diet on the Nazi ticket. With the cabinet in the hands of monarchists and pipelines laid to the Hitler movement, Hohenzollern shares have undoubtedly risen. Restoration of the monarchy, unthinkable under the twenty postwar governments in Germany, is possible under the twenty-first, the “all monocle” cabinet of militarists and landowners headed by Franz von Papen. At least eight of the ten members of the new cabinet are strong monarchists. It is significant that the reputable Munich newspaper, Bayrischer Kurier, disregarding denials, insists that President Von Hindenburg intends to resign in the autumn and yield to a regency headed by the crown prince. Declares His Loyalty The trend of the cabinet was strikingly illustrated yesterday when Baron Wilhelm von Gayl, interior minister, declared his loyalty to the Hohenzollems in his maiden speech to the reichsrat (federal council), although he denied the Von Papen regime intends to re-establish the monarchy. The opinion of most political leaders with whom I have talked, ranging from Nationalists to Socialists, may be summarized as follows: “Monarchism may remain a side issue if the regime of the junkers and generals succeeds in bending the constitution to its will. Otherwise it might consummate in re-establish-ment of a pre-war Germany by restoring the crown. But such a move now would risk the utter destruction of the nation's unity, already impaired. “Re-enthronement of a Hohenzollern in Berlin would strengthen south Germany's age-long antiPrussianism and stimulate the Bavarian movement behind Crown Prince Rupprecht. Nevertheless, the popular resentment to having drawn a blank in democracy’s lottery might resuscitate sympathy for monarchism and the royalist cabinet members might at least psychologically prepare for the return of the Hohenzollems."

Time Not Ripe Deutsche Allgemeine Zeitung reontly warned that the monarchy night soon become a practical problem but did not believe the time ripe. Failure to republicanize the army during their years of dominance of the government was one of the historical omissions made by the Socialists. The formal taking of the oath of the republican constitution in nowise counteracted the influence of monarchist-minded officers. But despite decodes in the kaiser’s service, Von Hindenburg takes the oath of allegiance to the republican constitution seriously and is unwilling to lend a hand to the monarchist schemes Thus the field marshal’s resignation or death is considered essential to elevation of the crown prince to the presidency, the regency, or the throne. But it is an open secret that the Nationalist leader, Alfred Hugenberg, in January tried to conclude a deal with Hitler for the joint nomination of the crown prince for the presidency. The proposal was discussed w r hen the crown prince and ex-Chan-cellor Bruening were among the luncheon guests at the residence of the present defense minister, General Kurt von Schleicher. It was no coincidence that the crown prince's first role in postwar politics came immediately after Hitler's triumphs in the elections of September. 1931. Dressed in a Hussar’s uniform, he reviewed a parade of war veterans at Coblenz, shortly after French troops had evacuated the Rhineland. Later, he inspected 130,000 members of the steel helmets at Breslau, near the polish border. Voled With Hitler Meanwhile he had received great ovations at many patriotic meetings. The crown prince's latest, feat was during Whitsuntide, at the dedication of a war memorial at Potsdam, when he reviewed regular army troops accompanied by an active officer. General Otto Hasse. The week before the presidential poll, the crown prince suddenly announced he was voting with Hitler against Hindenburg. This clearly coincided with the plan of Von Schleicher and the junkers to harness Hitler to their governmental scheme. Although the clerk, shop keeper, farmer, and workman enrolled in ■Hitler’s movement lack any enthusiasm for a monarchy, and Nazis leaders have said repeatedly that Hitler wants power himself and is not. a pace setter for the Hohenzollerns. the ex-kaiser is convinced Hitler will soon join or replace the junkers’ government and is intent on using Hitler for the Hohenzollerns’ purposes. Wilhelm Kube. Nazi whip in the diet, said recently in opposing a "Communist motion which its back>rs satd was aimed to halt the flow of the republicans’ money into Wilhelm's pockets: “The workers would Tather fall in line behind an honest prince than Jewish bootleggers. A Hohenzollern, not the social Democrats, made Prussian history.” Baby Falls Three Stories: l r nhurt ~Bp tutted Press - NEW YORK.

Dixie Senate Candidate Won Wife in Taxi Crash By Bcripps-Hoicard X nespaper Alliance WASHINGTON, June 11—Another spectacular figure to entertain the galleries will be added to the Senate roll if Robert R. Reynolds succeeds in holding his lead over Senator Cameron Morrison in the North Carolina run-off primary, July 2. Reyonlds, a wet, obtained a plurality over Morrison, a militant dry, a few days ago, but failed to obtain the required majority. Tar Heel state voters say that wets who did not participate in the first election will turn out with enthusiasm a month hence. Third and fourth-place primary candidate will support Reynolds in the run-off primary. In New York several years ago the taxicab Reynolds was riding in ran over a woman. He picked her up and carried her in the cab to a hospital, providing medical attention and keeping constantly in touch with her condition. She recovered and now is his wife. Reynolds is described as a fine-looking, rosy-cheeked, big-boned man, bubbling with enthusiasm and friendship. He is a veteran criminal lawyer. On the stump he is said to have devastated Morrison with ridicule. He emphasized Morrison’s great wealth which came to him by his marriage to the widow of one of the multimillionaire Duke power-tobacco magnates. On prohibition, Reynolds told North Carolinians. “I don’t want to bring back liquor. You have all you want now I would not change that situation at all. I merely want to regulate it as to quality and distribution.”

PLEA TO REVIVE WAR DEFENSE BODYREJECTEO Hoover Turns Down Plan of Bankers in Fight on Depression. By United Press WASHINGTON, June 11.—President Hoover has rejected a plea of eighty-six prominent bankers, business men and public leaders that h# revive the war-time national defense council to direct the battle against depression. A petition urging this action was signed by such men as Edsel Ford, August Heckscher, New York philanthropist; Jesse I. Straus, president of R. H. Macy and Company, New York; William Green, president of the American FedenMon of Labor; John Hays Hammond, engineer; E. F. Hutton and others. It was handed to the President late Friday by General Albert L. Cox of Raleigh, N. C., chairman of the defense committee of the American legion. The President within two hours made public a letter of reply in which he told Cox. “It is my impression that few of these gentlemen are familiar with the law bearing on this subject.” In this statement Mr. Hoover said the defense council was created purely for war purposes and to reestablish it at this time would “simply clog the situation.” He said the Reconstruction Finance Corporation, federal reserve board, and other government agencies were working in such close harmony that together “they constitute the most effective economic council that could be devised, because they have behind them both authority and co-operation.” BILLS SENATE FOR IFEES New Yorker Asks $34.04 for Witness Pay in Stock Probe.
