Political, etc
Germany: Theobold von Bethmann resigns as Imperial German Chancellor, Dr Michaelis (from Prussian Food Office, unknown to Kaiser) succeeds on July 14. Foreign minister Arthur Zimmermann resigns on July 15. Dr Georg Michaelis in 1932 (Bundesarchiv, Picture 183-2004-0720-500). The completely unknown lawyer, after the OHL had sawn out the ‘soft’ Bethmann, was called, quite surprisingly, as Chancellor. He was inexperienced and also preventing the peace resolution of the Reichstag, and in 1926 he was made responsible for the ‘possible prolongation of the war to Germany’s disadvantage’. After only 3 1/2 months in the office he was replaced again: https://i0.wp.com/ww2-weapons.com/w...aelis.jpg?ssl=1
