THE EX-KAISER" AT DOORN.
"A GOOD CITIZEN.”
BURGOMASTER'S TRIBUTE.
Doorn, Holland, December 13th (U.P.) Doorn regards the Kaiser as a good citizen.
During conversation with the United Press correspondent, Doctor A Baron Schimmelpenninek van der Oye.. Burgomaster of Doorn, also well-known as President of the Netherlands Olympic Committee,
id:-
"Judging the ex-Kaiser as one of Doorn's citizens I en say that Wilhelm is a very good citizen who bas done a lot for our village by his mere presence. He is always ready to remember the poor and the community benefits by the taxes be pays. Considerable money
changes hands on account of the largo staff that lives and works at
Huis Doorn.'
The grounds are naturally well kept and the place has been much beautified since the ex-Kaisor came, to live there. Only this year he presented the community with the new Rosarium, which is an attrac- tion for the citizens, as well as for tourists and visitors. We have not had the slightest difficulty because Wilhelm is a resident."
In a conversation in the Hague with Jonkheer F. Beelserts van Blokland, Foreign Minister of Hol land, I was assured that there is now no difficulty with any foreign government regarding Wilhelm's presence in Holland.
Extradition Matter Dropped. It is true," Jonkheer Beclaerts mid.that the old demand for ex- tradition by Allied Powers still stands, but after. Holland refused to comply with this demand the master was dropped As far as are concerned everything is so quiet that usually we forget the ex-Kaiser is in our country. It is the foreign press that reminds us occasionally that the ax-Kaiser is get the but otherwise we really forget fact
n
However, Wilhelm's presence in Holland is primarily a matter coo- cerning the Home Minister, Doctor | J. B. Kan.. The Home Minister cannot be expected to discuss pub licly the little difficulties he had had from time to time when Wilhelm sent telegrame to Germany concern. ing the internal affairs of that country as happened a couple of months ago. It is an oper secret that the Dutch Government at that time reminded Wilhelm of the pledge he had taken to refrain from such actions.

There is one thing to be noticed in Wilhelm's social position.
