DIPLOMATS DIFFER
ON FOES COLONIES

Suggestion that German colonies
be put under International control is
provoking animated talk in diplo-
matte circles Differences of opinion
are evident.
Among British diplomats there IL
strong feeling for holding German
colonies captured during the war.
Let those who took the colonies
keep them" is the suggestion in one
quarter. Australia, New Zealand and
British South African colonies are
strongest in the demand that the
colonies be retained. It was stated.
Natives Want British Rule.
Natives of the former German colo
mics are not yet able to govern them
selves, we'll informed diplomats as
sert Germany's method of COLOMBIA
tion-the opposite OF England's-was
aimed to prevent the natives from be-
coming educated and prosperous, it is
said. 1t will be years before they can
stand on their own legs, politically
and economically. Without manufac-
ture and exporting only a few staple
raw Materials these colonies must
exchange with the United States and
the great European powers to exist
To throw such lands wide open. in
stead of under protection OF some
strong power, would only provide a
rich field for German trade agents,
diplomats say.
President Wilson'S answer to this,
IL is known, will be that all nations
should join together to develop these
colonies and put them on a self-sup
porting basis as to government and
Industry. This Is to prevent any one
nation monopolizing the advantages
of obtaining special favors for its
own investors and traders.
Job Too Responsible.
Objection Is made, in strong diplo-
matte quarters. however, to giving
the proposed league OF nations such
a responsible job at the outset. Long
experienced diplomats here say that
the creation of the league. IL possible
at all, will be slow. For the present
they say, development of backward
territory, requiring tremendous capt.
from private sources-is
too complicated an undertaking for
such an untried adventure as the
league of nations.
1t is certain. however, that Presi-
ferent. He believes the way to make
the league OF nations q going propo-
sition is to give 1t responsibility both
for policing the world and for de-
veIoping untouched lands.

PSYCHOLOGY OF SILENCE.
Saying Little of Destruction of u
Boats Tends to Unnerve Germans.

WASHINGTON, Jan. MANY OF
the officers of the United States navy.
il is said, believe that the practice of
facts % to the capture or destruction
Of C-boats has had remarkable psy-
Geological effect on the sailors of the
Germany navy, and, therefore. is a sue
cesiful plan. Speaking on this point. a
navy officer of long experience said:
I In the beginning of the submarine
campaign the submersibles went to sea
and returned to their home ports with
more than a fair degree of regularity
considering the hazardous nature of
their work. Then [ boat after boat
failed to return. and nothing was
learned of what had become Of them
Once i'll 4 great while the British ad-
miralty would make the announcement
of the capture or destruction of a t
boat, but this was only when political
conditions made it absolutely neccs-
sary. The general rule was to maintain
silence. Then the U-boat service be-
gan to assume an air of mystery and
terror for the German sailors. The
boats went out, but did not come back,
| in increasing numbers. and nothing was
| known of the fate of the crews. Sail,
ors are superstitious, and this mystery
began to prey on the nerves of the men
of the German fleet until their dissat-
| isfaction seems to have brought about
such mutinies as occurred in that sery-
lee Of late with reported killings of
| officers. 1t has been stated in authentic
