" She creates an entirely new image of the man universally hated for so many years by mil- lions, who barely escaped trial @s a war criminal. The Kaiser was not without guilt. He did advocate a small skirmish of , Slandered by the propa- andists. He was also blamed and wounded by the temper of his own people. Although he had left Germany because von Hin- denbu be intolerable for the ex-Sover- eign to fall into the hands of the Communists, he was excor- jated by all classes, He was told him that it would astonished that von Hindenbur; did not step forward and te the German people that the Em- peror had departed much against his will, on the urgent advice of the High command. Miss Cowles includes a gal- lery of famous portraits, each of a sovereign closely related sup-|to the Kaiser by blood and di- suppressed for many years cettain powers for various Author Cowles does not tr to put a halo around his head, but she clears away much of the historical fog surrounding the man and he emerges as quite a different person from that caricatured so inaccurate- ly by historians, He was an er- ratic man and she carefully traces his erratic manoeuvres in a series of crisis which pre- the war, He found the anger of the British people when he moved to.

TRACES CAREER The author skillfully traces the career which ultimately led to catastrophe, each stage of which illustrated the extraordin- ary contrasts and contradic- tions in the Kaiser's character -- his flamboyant belligerence and his proneness to tears; the probity of his private life and the scandals which surrounded his intimates; the energy and the range of his conversation -jand his limitation in action; and finally that love-hate rela-| tionship exemplified in his vi-| tuperation of the.

Police have appealed to the public, seeking the name of the man whose dissected body was found 15 miles north of here 11 months ago by two Indian cow- boys. Laboratory tests on the re- mains show the man in life suf- fered a rare back injury and that he was murdered about two years ago. Police say the killer stripped the victim of clothes, identifica- tion and personal belongings. He then ripped his victim to pieces, stuffing the remains in potato sacks.
