BELGIUM |N.BAD WAY
1T is SAID SHE HAS SEVEN MIL
LION SOULS DEPENDING
ON AMERICA.
AT THE MERCY OF THE WORLD
If 1t Is Not Accorded They Will No
Longer Exist-Statement Made
BY Prominent Belgian Banker
Visiting in New York.

London.-"The civil army we have
to feed is greater than the British and
French armies combined. Yet We can
scrape through on about $6,250, 000
worth of food a month"
This statement was made this week
by Emil Tranquil, a prominent Belgian
banker, who is o n a brief visit to Lon
don, in connection with relief work
in Belgium in the organization of
which he played a conspicuous part.
1t was not generally realized, M.
Tranquil said, that there still were T.
900, 600 persons in Belgium who were
virtually entirely dependent for food
on the American relief commission.
No Parallel in History.
I'm all the history of the world M.
Tranquil continued, there is no par
allel for a community of Z ,000,0 200 souls
faced with starvation and denied by
the b~elligerents every possible means
of self-preservation. We, indeed, are
the Ishmael of Europe. You, in Eng
land, say O can not trade with us
because to do so would be to trade
with your enemy. You say you can
not open the port of Antwerp, u door
of relief, because it would be of adj
vantage to Germany. You say you can
not even send us money because it
might reach your enemy. Thus the
Germans, the French and the British
have a ring of steel around our terri
tory through which none may enter
and none may depart without the per-
mission of the belligerents.
THE Germans say, If England likes
to allow trade with Antwerp, your in
dustries will revive. If she does not
well, we are sorry, but we suppose
you must take the consequences. See
The Hague convention"
Saved by Americans.
While the belligerents argued, M.
Tranquil added, 1000, 900 persons were
confronted with actual starvation, but
with the formation of the American
relief commission the obstacles in the
way OF ministering to the wants of
the Belgians were overcome and ship
ments of food were permitted to en-
ter Belgium by way of Rotterdam.
This relief could not have been given,
he added, except under the auspices
of the neutral commission.
I'VE are proud Of our thrifty race"
M. Tranquil said in conclusion, but
we are now at the mercy If the world.
If mercy is not accorded us we shall
no longer exist.
