Pope Declares
Belgium Must
Be'Paid inFuH
Pontiff Says He viii Not Assist
in Restoring Peace Until Res
titution and Indemnity Is AS
Sured Devastated Nation
(By Associated Press.)

WASHINGTON, Jan. 22.-The Brit
ish embassy today issued this statement
based on it's dispatch from London:
a distinguished Belgian Jesuit.
Father Benusse. lately received by the
Holy Father, has given the following
account of his audience to a Belgian
chaplain in the Belgian army on army
on mis- return.
THE pope told me and told me to
repeat along the trenches to men and to
officers and even to the king himself
that he considers Belgium has the right
to complete reparation from Germany
and that he VIII never consent to offer
his good offices for re-establishment of
peace unless Belgium has all her terri
tories in Europe and Africa restored
her with plentitude, her liberties and
her international rights as they exist
ed before and this without prejudice to
her claim for an adequate indemnity
to be fixed after a minute inquiry and
inventory of all public monuments de-
stroyed after rebuilding factories and
private houses and restitution Of all
private property"
1.-The Times correspondent at Salon
Xxi reports that the examination of enc
my consulates' archives is still incom-
plete and likely to last long owing to
the mass of documents. Among docu-
ments found at the consulate of his
Catholic and Apostolic majesty of Aus
tria are 1900 copies of a long Arabic
proclamation to chiefs of the Senussf
melting them to holy war on non-Ger-
manic christendom. They were found
in a sealed parcel addressed to Aus
trian military attaches at Athens. Proc
lamation contains following words:
"'Of all instruments Allah has chos-
en- for protection of our religion surest
is German national. In these 'circum-
stances we have realized imperious ne
cessity of proclaiming holy war. In
northern Africa the most powerful rul-
er and one possessing most authority
IN the Mussulman world is his excel
lency the Imaum Illustrious Examplar
champion of Islam in the cause of AL
lah, who is our Lord and master, the
sure guide of all elect. This leader is
bred in truth of the Koranic law and
his soul shining its pure effulgence has
undertaken the task of purifying all
corrupt souls and directing them in
paths of life revealed by Holy book
given all MuSselmans.'
There is evidence that this proclama-
tion was produced in Germany, a coun-
try whose monarch is always invoking
God"
