...Wilhelm II's costliest whimsies as Kaiser and All Highest was to have the regalia of the Holy Roman Empire exactly duplicated in authentic jewels and precious metals. So perfect are these copies that only experts can distinguish them from the originals.

Nonetheless, anyone was privileged to say last week, and some did, that "opposition to Hitler has doubled"?i. e., the "noes" had risen from 4.9% to 9.9% in nine...
