true it might postpone! actual ef

Streaemann, it Is believed. would

Report* that the former Crown
Prince, exiled In Holland since the

The etory was brought out In the

there was no truth In the rumor,
while at Oels, Upper Silesia. wher«

It Is known, nevertheless, that
there has been an informal dis

allowing the ex-Crown Prince to
