ALLIES DEMAND KAISER (Continued from Pago One) Question of Policy "In addressing tills demand to the Dutch government tho powers believe it their duty to emphasize its special character, it is their duty to insure the execution of article 227 without arguments becauso it is not a ques tion of judicial character as regards its basis but an act of high interna tional policy imposed by tho univer sal .conscience. In which legal forms have been provided solely to assure to tho accused such guarantees as were never before recognized in pub lic law.

"It Is to the highest interest of the Dutch pooplo not to appear to protect tho principal author of this catas tropho by allowing him shelter on her territority and also to facilitate his trial which is claimed -by the voices of millions of victims.
