Ever since the exciting days preceding the armistice, when President Wilson was reiterating Inquiries to the new Gov- ernment of Germany as to whether the authorities were speaking for the Im- perial Government or the German peo- ple, there 'has been a suspicion that the government set up as a substitute for the Hohensollern empire' would be per- mitted to hold office only so long as the Interests of the conservative elements Beemlngly made It necessary.
