Former Kaiser Wilhelm of Germany approves of the Hitlerite treatment of the German Jews, the Reverend J. Lloyd Thomas, who describes the former All-Highest as “My Friend”, declared in an article in the London Pictorial Weekly.

Reverend Thomas told of a conversation with the former Kaiser’s wife in the course of a visit to Doorn, Holland, where the former Emperor lives in exile.

“I told her that there was an idea in England that her husband did not approve of Hitler’s treatment of the Jews”, the Rev. Thomas said. “She said that was not true. ‘Before the War, my husband, like many in high position in Germany, had no anti-Semitic feeling whatever. But the Jews did such mischief during the war that he has not now a good word for them.”
