BELGIAN CONGO IS PIONEER COUNTRY
 RICH IN PROMISE
This Colonial Empire Sought By Germany Is Carved Out of the Heart of Lands in Equatorial Africa.

WASHINGTON. April Describ- ing the Belgium Congo. which is now prominent in thd discussion of settle ments to be made at the conclusion of the war. the National Geographic So- ciCty in a statement issued today says
 Although Belgium now controls less than 300 square miles lof her ter ritory at home she is still possessed of a colony one-fourth as large as all Europe together It is larger than the combined areas of all the countries now at war. outside of Russia That colony is the Belgian Congo, with near ly a million square miles Of territory.
 This empire is carved out of the heart of equatorial Africa. and mclud- es within it's confines one of the worlds greatest rivers, the Congo. from which the colony takes it's name. The river has a course of about 5000 miles. and with its tributaries, offers wonderful system of communication for opening up the rich hiuterland It is estimated that there are G.OO0 miles of nayigable waters in the colony, while the Congo river is navigable for ocean steamers for 100 miles up- strtam. Here follows a secIon of 200 miles of rapids above which the riyef is nayigable for 1900 miles.
 "The work of exploiting the heart of Africa has just begun There has been considerably difficulty i'm induc.
 ing European colonists to emieratc to these regions and begin new homes First. the Congo has the evil reputa. ton of being no fit country for the white man, and. secondly a feeling has existed that permanent home there meant permanent burial without the pale of civilization Therefore. the promoters of the Congo have had to overcome great unwillingness among their people to exchange the comforts and certaintlcs of the moth. crland for the questionable advantag. es of pioneering in the wild. dark country which has successfully dehed all progress fer ten thousand years.
 Some advance however has been
 made. and the future of the colony seems to be one of promise Although the climate is generally hot and moist it i- supportahle by the white man The climate of the coast lands is least endurable for tine Europeans Over a great part of this territory normal temperatures range between 60 and | 90 deerets Rain is everywhere album ] daut The extreme heat of tDe day is generally relieved by sharp evening chill
 The white population of this lauo remains suu negligible The tota population has been estimated at 10 000 O0O in which are counted a mer, coco whites. The native population while Overwhelmingly superior in nun bers has been awed by the white mans machine guns, railways, steam
