Von Hindenburg, Un-
used to Pomp o f
President’s Li f e ,
Longs for Cottage
BERLIN. Sept. 10.—“The
man of the Wilhelmstrasse."
That's what Germans are begin-
ning to call Paul Von Hindenburg.
former generalissimo of the Ger-
man armies and now president of
the German republic by reason of
the first general election for chief
executive that the nation ever held.
It's not that the president hasn't
many callers. He could have visitors
all day long. if he wanted to receive
them. He's lonely for his little house
in Hanover. where he counted upon
passing his’ Inst years.
He's now 78. He's lonely for his
little granddaughters. They come
only for occasional visits to their
grandpa. He's lonely for his fine
horse. He's had to give up horse-
back riding since he moved to the
capital.
ms office is Ben.
' The only place in this official
residence that Hindenburg feels at
home in .his home he calls his of-
fice. From this room he has bun-
ished the Drench paintings that. sin-
ularly enough, decotate the halls
of the rest of the police.
Hindenburg has kept the walls of
his officelbare, save for two pic-
tures. One is of a beautiful German
countryside painted by a German
painter. The other is a. his photo-
graph of the son he lost on the field
of battle.
The only furniture in the room is
a. few chairs and a big mahogany-
topped desk. The room withitsspnr—
tan simplicity stilts the soldier tem-
perament of the old men, more
with its spartan simplicity suits the
soldier temperament of the old man
more used to camps and barfaeks
than to palaces and diplomacy.
He still holds himself very straight
for such an old man. His hair is

going all white. bitt his mustache is
still only gray. His eyes, despite the
deep dark pouches below them. are
still blue with a youthful blueness.
He wears ordinarily a very simple
gray stilt with it white pin stripe.
His collar. to ueconiodatc his rather
bull-like neck. is big and loose‘fit-
ting. His tie is also gray and he is
old-fashioned ,enough to stick

main adornment is a big ‘clrved
Bold ring. the setting of which con-
sists of his famly eoatmf-arms. it
was given him during the World
War by his emperor.
Simple as his office and his
clothes is the life he leads. He gets
up every morning promptly at 7:“
and reads and writes during the
forenoon. having sacrificed his
horseback ride for this purpose. Af-
ter a simple mid-day meal. he lies
down and takes a nap of two hours
duration.
Stay Home Nights.
The balance of the afternoon is
given up to the'reccptlon of im-
portant German and foreign per-
sonages who h vs a. legitimate claim
upon his time. o goes to bed at a.
fairly early hpur.
lib is not seen out at night mucri
by the Berlinese. He doesnt care
for the theater and his visits to the
opera have so far been few and far
between.
Unlike many Prussian Junkers,
his knowledge of the language and
literature in speaking French and
of modern Fronchditerature seems
to have read mainly the novels of
Maurice Barres and Victor Hula.
Even in‘ his own language he
doesn't seem to be a great reader.
His particular favorite is Madame
Courthe Mahler. who writes popular
light fluffy stuff. He considers
Jacob Wasserman the greatest llv~
his German novelist. although it is
a grief to the old Junker that Was-
instead
of a Juiiker.
Somebody not long ago drew the
fire of the old man. There is in Ger-
many a German poet. novelist and
dramatist who has a. big following
in his country and a. great vogue—
in translation—in France. It is Fritz
von Unruh, who was an officer in
the German army all during the
war.
He is now an advocate of
German republic, an opponent
the
of
tho Junkers and Prussianism and '
a friend of the movement to .bring
about lasting peace with France.
But the old president of the German
republic dismissed his name with a
contemptuous—"He‘s a dchrman-
ized German."
