Prince Eitel Friedrich, second son of the ex-Kaiser, has been sued by the wife of the late Prince Joachim, the ex-Kaiser's fourth soo, for the alleged unlawful retention of her young son, Fricce Karl Friedrich. Princess Joachim divorced her husband last year, but it was not until after his death that the decree was made absolute. The ex-Kaiser appointed Prince Eitel the young Prince's guardian, under Hohenzollern private law, but Princess Joachim claims her son under German law,
