Former German leader (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

kaiser

(Other definitions for kaiser that I've seen before include "Former German emperor" , "Emperor of Austria or Germany until 1918" , "Ruler over empire" , "Austrian bigwig" , "Old German emperor, pre-Hitler" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
