COLONIES IN EAST AFRICA

An influential British paper the Manchester Guard
ian, in anticipating. discussion Of certain phases Of the
International settlement which is to be made at the com
ing peace conference, asks whether the time is not COM
ing when America will reconsider her attitude in regard
to undertaking territorial obligations lin the backward
seeions Of the earth."
The argument Of the newspaper is that while the
Gesnan colonies in East Africa will not be returned to
Germany, IT Il unthinkable that Great Britain should
acquire this additional colonial burden. and that the
only other power which is in . position to administer
remote provinces literally and emciently, Is the Uafted
States Of America
1t would seem unfortunate that any Of the Allied
and associated powers should think Of taking possessron
of these colonies in the old-fashioned manner, and. it
would appear to most Americans as an unvarra1ted
step for the United States to launch an experiment Of
this kind and on : scale As vast as this. Opinions a.
70 the wisdom Of such q step will conceivably be sharp
ly divided. but one strong point against the suggestion
is at least that Of wise and well-testsd tradition.

VICTORY SUMMARY

Reports Of the death Of Crown
Prince Frederick William of Germany
seem to be confirmed by dispatches
received from London. 1t is said that
he was shot and killed on Monday
morning by frontier guards while he
was trying to make his w%ayeintos Hol-
land, where his father had taken ref

Paris, but there Is as yet no official
'a2nouncement making it certain that
the Crown Prince was the first Of
the German royal family to meet
death, in the revolutionary outbreak
that swept the H~ohenzollerns of the
throne.
