A writer In the Bulletin (Sydney) says:—"The Allies must dC more than confiscate Germany’s -fleet if they s£tk a lasting peace. They must also put an embargo on marriages between the sovereigns, heirs, and prospective heirs of the smaller European States and German princes and princesses. Eoumania would Irnvo been in the thick of the Avar, on the side whe(re its interests lie, were its king not a Hohenzollern and its queen a Wied. Bulgaria has nothing to gain and all to lose from an Austro-German victory, but its king is a son of Augustus of Saxe-Cobnrg and Gotha, and his sympathies are ns much pro-German as they are hostile to the Republic which drove his mother’s family into exile. Holland, with a German Prince Consort, is as Prussian as it dares to bo. Of the Grecian Royal Family, London Truth (17/3’15) remarked: 'The Queen has inherited qualities, shared, of course, by the Kaiser, damaging to the body and reacting unfavourably on the brain and temperament. King Constantine is a half-Ger-man Dane.’ Naturally they arc both pro-Gorman, and it was their influence that brought about the fall of Fcni/e----los, the Prime Minister, three months ago. and kept Greece neutral. It is really wonderful how people of German or Austrian origin stand together. Take the case of Princess Christian and her family. They abided for a lifetime in a sruto of Royal indigence (relieved bj r : be chsritv of the British) in the Ascot district. There they lived the semisuburban lives of that genteel neighbourhood and seemed to have no thought of Germany. Their son, Prince Albert, was educated in England, and brought, up to be the typical sporting Englishman. As the outcome of it all he is' fighting in a Prussian Hussar Regiment against the nation which contains all liis boyhood’s friends. And his case is typical of thousands.”
