BELGIUM PLANS
 COLONIAL MOVE
 AFTER THE WAR

PARIS, April 2. - lCorrespon- dence of The Associated PresS). -- aeleium's colonial policy after the war and the fate of the Belgian Congo after peace has been concluded was he subject of an address delivered at at the Sorbonne yesterday by Mir. Renkin. of the fate of Central Afri- ca. It seems to me that the fate of that territory has been settled for a long time, as far as that part of 1t which is not German possessions Is concerned. AS to the fate of the Ger man colonies, it is not for me, either to suggest or to advise"
 There has been question raised lately as to the intemationali2ation oi ,he basin of Central Africa Or if not complete intemaLionalization, at least the establishment of an international control for the protection of the na- tives. Those are generous ideas per haps but wholly impracticable, con trary to the notion of sovereignty and incompatible with justice"
 Mir. Renkin expressed the opinion that no policy could be adopted that would deprive Belgium of it's absolute sovereignity in the Congo. He said:
 Small and modest as Belgium finds tSelf, now, it has conscience of having said the words and of having done the deeds in conformity with honor and duty when the terrible aggression of Germany put civilization in jeopardy. The least that civilization can do for it after the war is to see that it's in- tegrity and sovereignty and indepen- dence, it's territories be restored and that it be guaranteed against future outrageS.
 Belgium has sacrificed all to it's duty; into the scales of destiny with cut hesitation she has thrown all her strength for the defense of civiliza- ton. The least that can be recognized by the world now, is, that while there may be guarantees equal to the wore of Belgium, there is none superior"

NATURAL INDIGO OF GREAT BRITAIN HAS
 BEEN DISPOSED OF

LONDON, April 2. - The entire stock of natural indigo of the country has been disposed of by brokers act ing under instructions of the govern ment. At the outbreak of war owing to the shortage of synthetic indigo. it was feared that the supply of natural indigo would get into the hands of a very small group and the governC ent decided to purchase the entire avai.' able stock and to retail it at rea.on- able price. Some 267 tons were pur- chased at a gross cost of 61,0OO pounds, says the Board of Trade Jour nal. One hundred tons were sold to France and the remainder to the trade here, resulting in profit of 5,556 pounds.

DEPICTS RAID OF AIRPLANES
 FROM THE AIR

LONDON, April 2. - The Man chester Guardian prints the following description of the recent air-raid over London as seen from a height, by a correspondent:
 It was some time after the burst ing of the maroons that the first sound of the attack was heard. 1t came from the northeast, a series of quiet, sep arate noisy plop--plop-plop p-p'cp. like porridge boiling. The firing died down and started again from the north in the same gentle way. Then 1t became quicker, and then died away in soft, flannelly noises.
 Suddenly the firing burst again to the northwest and also to the south, and some nearer guns began to bay. Then there was activity in the west, and we heard four or five harsh voices that we took to be bombs, accompan- jed by faster firing. The last move mont was to the south ana southeast and the noise of the guns was near and loud, till the whole earth seemed full of barking and the skies of ex- plosions.
 At the same time the unseen enc my. that had been buzzing around our defenses like mosquitos round a net, tried again on the north. 1t was the last wrestle and could not continue long. The enemy fell back, and the firing died down until only a few dis tant guns were firing softly, plop- plop-plop, like a sigh of relief. The raid was over."

IS OBLIGATORY
 NOW SAY THE GERMANS

NEW YORK, April 2. - The Prussian Minister of the Interior, Dr. Drews, stated before the Franchise Committee of the Prussian House of Deputies that the German government was considering the question of mak- ing the exerrise of the franchise ooli- gatory, according to German news napers received here. The Cologne Gazette stated that, duriny the cleo tion for the Reichstag in 1912, 15.5 per cent. of the 14,442,000 of the vot- CTS refrained from voting. The news paper added that the principle of obli- gatory exercise of the franchise in- troduced in 1894 in Belgium had prov ed success.

HINDENBURGE ONLY A BIG BLUFF

April First has come and gone and von Hndenburg lid arrive in Paris he predicted he would several weeks ago. Hindenburg is much like the kaiser long on talk and predictions but short accomplishments It IS
 true that the great offensive the Western front started and still raging, but Paris is not the place where Hin denburg landed In fact little old Hindenburg seems to have been lost the maSsng of troops and the sending of wave after wave of infantry against the British and French Perhaps the German general will bob up next " saying that he will be the English Channel by some certain date. Or he might wait until the Germans have occupied objective if they do and then say that he said they would, on that date.
