GERMANS TRY TO
ALLEVIATE BELGlANS
OF FLEMISH DESCENT

| WASHINGTON, May .o.-From q Bei-
gian who has escaped into England
after three years of capllNi's III
man prison camps, the Beisiaii ieea
ton here has received inter oe-
| tails of the clumsy efforts OF the ger
| man conouerors to ALLEVIATE the BEL
/ gians of Flemish extraction from
their countrymen of Walloon descent
as practiced among the Began prs
| oners in Germany.
The project. which has been des-
cribed as stupidity conceived ana e2-
ecuted had its birth, the ADVISES say
( in the dreams of the Pan Germanlsts
who would set up in northern BEL
gium a Flemish state that would as
sumo the status Of German pro-
/ tectorate.
! The first advances were made
( toward the Belgians of Flemish ex-
traction confined in the prison
camps. They were segregated and
I 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
state. All measures calculated to
win over the prisoners failed nliser-
ably, said the legations informant,
and the groups remained indissolubly
Belgian.
Parts Of the letter describing the
German intrigue follow:
The plan of the Germans was to
/, concentrate all the Flemings in the
camp of Gottingen, 10 give them
privileged treatment under the
supervision Of a civilian. Professor
STANCE of the Gottingen University,
and to induce them to join the ac-
twist movement aiming at the sep
aration OF Belgium into two political
states, Flanders falling under German
direct or indirect control.
In the course of July, ! decided.
with few companions, to volunteer
for Cottingen in order to counteract
the enemys intrigues. We found
there Professor STANCE and few of
his activist disciples hard at work.
STANCE was practically the comman-
der Of the camp. We were treated
with great consideration BY the SEN
tries, the system of blows and threats
was suspended and we were much
surprised TO be addressed as .Heer-
schaften.'
The converted men were only a
very small minority including some
students and artists. Happily the
new regime allowed the patriots to
speak out and to unmask the traitors.
Our work was made considerably
easier through the interference of
two members Of the Council OF
Flanders Borms and Weert. Their
interference stamped STANCES F'lem-
ish activity as a purely German
manoeuver and one ny one the rris-
oners ceased to attend the Club
FuSorge'
AZ the same time the regime in
camp changed entirely. The Herr
s1haiten' We're again 'Schweinhude'
and new commander was sent 10
the camr. The civilian had failed in
his mission and the military exerted
rs former power with vengeance.
Most Of the FleminSs at Coffin
gen. (nearly 10000 passed through the
camp were sent to various kon-
manGos. The number Of STANCES
conversions among the Flemish rris-
oners might he almost hundred
Even the fear Of being sent to cal
mine did not induce more than one
! man in hundred 70 lend 4 patient
ear 70 separatist propa sanda."
