Under British Rule.

London.-German cruelty exercised
toward the natives of her former col.
onies Is outlined in the statements OF
native chiefs In the Samoan islands,
the Kameruns, Togoland, Southwest
Africa, and East Africa, In a white
book published by the colonial office.
The statements show that the natives

The horrors Of the German rule Ii
Southwest Africa, the white book says,
already are too well known to require
repetition, but the same system OF
tyranny was found in other German
colonies In a greater or less degree.
The burden running through all the
statements Of the natives Of Togoland
and the Kameruns is "flogging, fog

ton with forced labor on plantations.
