Clumsy Effort to
Divide Belgidns

Washington, May A.-From g. Bel
gian who has escaped into England
after three years Of captivity in Ger
man prison camps, the Belgian lega-
ton here has received interesting de-
tails of the clumsy efforts Of the
German conquerers to ALLEVIATE the
Belgians of Flemish extraction from
their countrymen of WallOon descent
as practiced among Belgian prisoners
in Germany.
The project, which has been de-
scribed as stupidity conceived and eX-
ecuted had it's birth, the advises say,
in the dreams of the Pan Germanists
who would set up in northern Bel

were segregated and forwarded to
other prison centers where they were
treated with some degree of kindness
In an effort to win their support in
establishing the new statel All
measures calculated to win over the
prisoners failed miserably, said the
legations informant, and the groups
remained indissolubly Belgian.

Destroyer Fleet Increasing Rapidly
The number Of British and Amer
lean destroyers has increased rap
idly and is still doing so that there
are plenty Of these essential watch
dogs of the sea to make the pas
sage Of conveys across the Atlantic
and North sea secure. The great
est percentage of losses. by subma-
rines since January l has been in
the Mediterranean, and this is now
being reduced by increasing the
number of destroyers in those wat
ers. No submarine commander will
risk attack on a convoy which is
protected on all four sides by de-
stroyers and frequently accompan-
led by seaplanes circling overhead
in advance.
Naval experts are confident that
when there are sufficient destroyers
to escort all conveys required to
transport troops and munitions
from America to England and
France the submarine peril will be
practically at an end. This stage
should be reached by August. At
the present time the U-boats watch
and wait for vessels which are alone
and probably on their way to a rem
devious and rarely attack a con-
voy.
