GERMANS REPORTED
INCLINING TOWARD
U. S. PROTECTORATE
Special to The Nome Nugg.t by The Assocfctt«cf I’rcss.
BERLIN. June 4—Observers of Gorman internal affairs assert that
there is every prospect, that Germany may soon astonish the world by offering
inducements ‘to America t.. establish ;l protectorate over the faction torn
nation .
The view is expressed in many quarters that there seems to be i
widespread and growing demand on the part of the Germans to Induce America
to enter into some limited form or alliance with Germany or to take a pro
tectorate.
The Germans are said to- be growing exceedingly weary of the dis
tractions resulting from the efforts «.f the radical elements to obtain control
and would be glad to accept American control to escape the present state of
partial civil war which has practically disrupted the nation and its industries.
The people are also said to realise that there is little hope that the present
government will be able to control the situation for a long period and are
beginning to look upon an alliance with America as the only means of early
escape from their present difficulties.
The sentiment of the public is believed to be rapidly crystalizing in
the direction of America assuming control and giving Germany financial aid.
taking in return the lion’s share of the profits of the countries industrial act
ivities. The proposal is said to he receiving consideration in the highest
quarters and is expected to develop in an offer to the United States along the
suggested lines.
