Germany Believes
v Will Hold Belgium
lONDON", June M.-A "neutral ob
server," who has been visiting Germany
and has written a series of articles for
the Times, In one of his articles todsy
declares that It Is the almost universal
belief of German people that Belgium
will remain German, and that Belgian
Congo vlll become a German possession.
It Is estimated that Germany has taken
ll.iBO.oon.O'jO worth of property of all
kinds. Including raw materials and man
ufactured products, as war Indemnity
out of Belgium. 4.
"Revolvers made In Belgium." the
writer says, "are now a part of the reg
ular German equipment. The bayonets
snd swords now used in the German
armies are almost exclusively of Belgian
material, while it is intended, when the
need arises, to take the overhead wiring
In Belgium to make good the copper
shortage In Germany."
