HALF THE WORLD AND
ITS PEOPLE AT WAR

| Belgian dependency. 1t touches Brit
ish South Africa and also the British
Sudan holdings. II requires no bold
stretch Of the imagination to conceive
that the present great war may
change the map of Africa to a consid
cradle extent. When the great powers
sit down around the council table at
the end of the conflict, England. In re,
turn for her support of Belgium
against the Germans. might easily ask
that the sovereignty of the Congo
Free State be entrusted to her.
France might well be expected to
assent to this, because her African
holdings would likely be consolidated
and considerably extended as the re-
suit of her participation in the war.
With the Congo Free State in her pos.
session, Great Britain would then hold
great strip of Africa running almost
due north and south from the Medi-
terranean to the Cape. She would
control the interior lake region OF the
DARK Continent whose vast bodies OF
navigable fresh water are fairly com
parable to the Great Lakes OF the
United States; the Congo Valley; the
gold and diamond reefs OF South Afri-
ca and practically every mile of the
immense and rich valley OF the Nile.
The consolidated British Empire In
Africa. thus brought into being would
exceed the British holdings in any
other continent, not excepting Aus.
tralia and the Dominion OF Canada.
The Spells Of War.
On the other hand, should Germany
be the dictator in the peace terms at
the end Of the great struggle, she
would undoubtedly exact large part
Of the French possessions In Africa.
Besides the holdings in the Sahara.
the Congo and the Niger Valley.
France owns the great island OF NADIA
gascar. 1t is not improbable that If
position to force terms on France, she
would exact her pound OF flesh" in
choice bits Of French colonial posses
sions. rather than In cash.
One OF the greatest colonizing pow
OF the world is Holland. whose empire
in the East once included much OF
what is now British India. Holland
Ctill owns Borneo. which is nearly as
large in area as the German Empire;
the Celebes Islands, one-third as
large as Borneo: Sumatra, which Ia
nearly as large as France; Java,
which though only about as large as
Iowa. is one OF the most densely popu.
lated regions in the world, numbering
something like 100000 inhabitants;
Dutch Guiana. on the north coast OF
South America, which Is about the
size Of Java. though having a much
smaller population and various islands
and groups of islands In the South
Seas.
Though Holland has not declared
war, the enumeration OF her colonial
possessions is Important in this con-
nection. for she has ordered the mobi.
ization OF her army and It is hard TO
see. how, in the event OF a prolonga-
ton OF the big war. any European
power with world interests can keep
out OF IT,

portuoaIs stake In the War.

The participation of Portugal in the
great war is not OF such little imp0r.
lance as is generally believed She
has colonies comprising over 100000
square miles, inhabited by more than
100000 people All of these colonies
would be exposed to seizure were Ger
many and Austria successful. Portu.
gal. therefore. has big stake involved
On the other hand, the alliance with
England has been a guarantee TO
Portugal OF the permanence OF her
possessions.
