Trial of Spurious Prussian Prince Proves Amusing to + Berlin, July 26.--The Marx Cab. eoclesiastical domination over the country's public schools so. that that species of clericallam which was decielvely defeated by the German Empire might now, under the Ger- man Republic, become an accomp- lished fact. Legislative power, how- ever, rests with the Reichstag. Con- sequently, German liberalism still hopes to keep education in the hands of the State and out of that of the Roman Catholic and Protestant Churches, the two creeds officially recognized by the Reich, The Liberal's success depsnds pri- marily on the People's Party, which Foreign Minister Stresemann heads, standing hy the principles inherited from its National Liberal predeces- sors, The churchmen, represented hy the allied Catholic Centré and the Nationalist 'Minister, won the rst skirmish of 'what promises to he a long battle when the Cabinet form- ally adopted the draft of a measure establishing ° sectarian schools throughont all Germany. The issue immediatély leaped into big head- lines and' préeipitated a lively finale to Governmental activities prior to the Summer adjournment of the Reichstag, Dr. Btresemann and his fellow- Populist, Minister of Commerce Cur- tius, emphatically intimated Inside and outside of the Cabinet their dis- approval of the bill. They sanction- ed Its acceptance, they declared, merely for the sake of getting the whole husiness hefore Parliament, which meets In extraordinary ses- sion in September to hegin debating the question, For the present the Government cogjition is sadly split over the propo- sition, and unless the People's' Party Husky | backslides there is little Prospect of its passage, Public' Opinion 1s Arvtived Meanwhile public opinion "#8 "hotly | aroused.

And the offspring of non-believers, of whom, with the Socialist and Communist parties polling one-third of the total nation- al vote, there are many millions throughout the Reich? Answers to these and many more questions will have to be fought out in the committees and on the floor of the Reichstag next Fall. The po- litical crux of the problem at present lies in the seeming affront to the Constitution offered by the proposed abandonment of the so-called *simul- tan," or non-sectarian, schools, no- tably in the free States of Baden and Hesse. The Constitution specially pro- vides that e€ducational laws must take into comsideration those pars of the country im which Christian religions are 'taught withous regard to creed. If, bowever, the Catholic inhabitants of: those sectiops on the strength of the new ligislation de- mand that their children be edu- cated in accordance with the pre- cents of Rome, and the Protestants also insist on denominational in- struction, the Simuitan schools will lose virtually all of their pupils and will bave to close their doors. To camouflage clerical control parsons employed as teachers by the State will be listed as public offi- cials, and not as members of the clergy, and will be subjected to civil service regulations. This expedient is condemned as a paltry subterfuge by the Liberals. ver they may be called the teachers will remain the representatives of the Church they say, and the Church through them will influence, if it does mot absolutely dictate, the curriculum. The result in anti-clerical eyes will be the Ialsing of German children Predict "Monkey Trials" The passage of the school bill by the Reichstag would be the fore- to a C t between the Reich and the Vatican. How far such an agreement would go cannot he predicted today. Certainly, how- ever fit would constitute a funther step in the direction of placing Ger- man education under dom- ination.

Religious strife among those of op- posite creeds or of no creed whatever would wax so violent as to threaten the Reich with cival war. That in its briefest form as the thesia advanced by the antagonists of the measure accepted by the en- tire Cabinet and approved by all its members save only Dr. Stresemann and Herr Curtiua, ' The opposition, besides the Pep- ple's Party, includes the a, Socialists, Communists and the nomi Union. If, as the Liberal Bok contends, the bill embodies a Con- stitutional amendment for the adop- tion of which a two-thirds majority of the Reichstag is required, the chances for its enactmeny are almost nil. Without the Populist ballots it cannot obtain even a simple major- ty. Ad the Populista are likely to stand by their guns, mot so much because of traditional hostility to- ward church interference in public affairs as for electoral purposes. Their only means of increasing thelr party strength is at the exnense of the Nationalists. The bulk of the Na- tionalists are Lutheran Protestants. If in the course of the next cam- paign the People's party can con: vince these Lutheran voters that the Nationalists have sold Germany to the Pope by legislating for thel creation of Catholic school and sup- porting the Centrists in a drive for a Concordat, it has a good chance of stealing some Junker votes. Spurious Prince is Tried German Ltberalism's anxiety over the schaol bill was offset by gleeful laughs it got at the trial of Harry Domela, a young swindler who tour- ed Thuringia last Winter in a hign- ly successful Inpersonation of Prince William of Prussia, the 'nldest son of the former Crown Prifice. Never since the celebrated Captain of Coep- enick made a monkey of German militarism twenty-odd years ago have the German foes of Hohen- gollernism and all it implies enjoy- ed themselves so much. Domela's story of his exploit told on the wit- ness stant at Cologne stripped the Royalist diehards bare and left them with nothing but their insane craving to cringe and crawl hefore a spurious scion of Prussia's Kings, The humorous side of the imposter's narrative was what chiefly interested the Republican press, of course.

"Domelackeys," as the Socialist Vorwaerts call them, convinced themselves without the slightest ef- fort on his part, and, indeed, with- out his knowledge, that Domela was the Kaiser's grandson. And once they were convinced neither his shabby raiment nor his evident lack of funds could affect their eagerness to prostrate themselves before him mentally if not physically.
