nation as to any concessions Ameri"
cans may have received from King
Leopold for the gathering Of India

He arraigns King Leopold "for the
manner in which he has exploited the
Congo lands in accommodating wealth to
himself by imposing tasks of personal
labor to the extreme of cruelty upon
the native population"
Mr.. Morgan charges that conces'

King Leopold to exercise the same
distressing authority over the people
over which they have proceeded to
enforce without restraint and without
the responsibilities to pubic opinion
which should check their ayarace and
greed in dealing with an ignorant and
subjugated people"
