As a preacher he might have made a success simply on the strength of his conviction and sincerity. He be lleves strongly in Divine Providence, that he was called to be Emperor of the German people by Divine vue tion, and that by Divine decree hel was allowed to be put off his throne. Equally he is sure that in God's good time the House of Hohenzollers.! either in his own person or that off one of his children or grandchildren, will be restored to its proper position. As JI Christian, he is content tu take things as they come, without bitterness or complaint.
Yet he is sufficiently human to give way sometimes for a moment to feel ings of disappointment and bitterness against those whom he thinks have been the cause of his downfall.

'Speed Hampers Warplanes'
PARIS,
"High speed and heavy engines in warplanes will hamper mobility and fighting quality; all military planes are becoming too complicated,"
So said Anthony H. G. Fukker, the famous Dutch designer and the battle 'plane manufacturer, in his Paris lotel recently:
"It is all speed, speed, speed," he added. As a manufacturer I have to follow the trend, but I believe that two things are at present being overlooked,
"Military aeroplanes are asking too much from the human element. They will need so much personnel to keep them in the air that their effective- ness will be reduced..
