Would Consult Africans.

t. The welfare of the natives must be
consulted in any adjustment of the
African question: As far as the South
west Africa is concerned the South
African government at Cape Town; it
is said unofficLllly, Will demand its
retention. Premier Bothas and Gen.
SHUTS are in Paris and their attitude.
in favor of the incorporation of this
region in the South African union has
been made plain. AAs q,
. In German East Africa the claims of
Great Britain, it is pointed out.s, can
not be considered apart from those of
Portugal and Belgium. India also is
interested and then the French claim
in Africa must be considered. =
The feeling in British circles is that
Germany has made a mess of her
trust in the African colonies and the
natives do not want to be returned
TO Germanic influence. There must be
a revision of the treaties of 1888 con-
corning the partition of the Kongo
basin, it Is said, because these can no
longer stand.
1t is possible that the United States
will be asked TO cooperate with Great
Britain in the trusteeship in Africa
outside of German Southwest Africa.
Great Britain, it is said does not
want to carry the burden of the adj
ministration of Africa by herself.
