BELGIUM GIVES
lie TO GERMANY
Issues Fervid Declaration
Denying Plot with Allies
Before the War.

: London, March l7.-The Belgian gov
crnment to-day issued a protest against
the German allegation that documents
found in the archives at Brussels
showed that Belgium had forfeited her
neutrality before the outbreak OF the
war.
THE Belgian government" the state
ment says, declares on its honor that
not only was no convention ever made
but also that neither OF the two gov
ernments ever made any advances or
propositions concerning the conclusion
of any such convention.
"The documents which the Germans
discovered give evidence Of all this.
Their meaning is perfectly clear, pro-
vided that no part of them is either
garbled or suppressed. In face Of the
calumnies repeated again and again,
our government, faithfully rejecting
Belgian uprightness. considers that Il
is its duty to iniict once more on the
spoiler Of Belgium the brand OF infamy,
his only legitimate reward"
The protest declares that before the
declaration Of war no French force,
even of the smallest size. had entered
Belgium, and that after the declaration
the Belgian government earnestly solic-
