Chancellor von Paoen, making what his friends called an effort to soothe the South Germans, replied that the Federal Government did not intend to name a Federal commissioner for Prussia "unless public order is endangered and then only for a short time." Premier Held, Premier Bolz and Premier Schmitt then stiffly intimated their opinion that such action would be unconstitutional and sufficient grounds for secession of South Germany from the Federal union.
