Sept. 22.-The census staticians
Of the United States government
can toss all their data, regarding
the next center OF population Of
the country, in scrap heap.
At least, as far as farmers In
the vicinity Of Bloomington, Ind.
are concerned. It's foregone
conclusion to them as to where the
next center" will land. In fact,
the backwoods farmers have spread
It all over the eastern portion OF
Monroe county, midway up to
the Brown county line.
Making Claims.
In 1910 the 'spot" was finally To-
Gated at Bloomington. Now these
farmer folks have discovered that
the 1920 spot" is likely to land
somewhere within eight miles east
of Bloomington. They were some
what surprised that the spot"
should move eastward after hRv.
ing travelled about SO miles west
IN the 1910 census. but already
they are making their claims to the
country at large.
"The government chaps got off
on the wrong foot back In 1910"
said ] L. SkirVin, Monroe county
farmer. First the dern Investigate

BELGIUM LOSING
FAITH In BRITAIN,
TURNING TO j. S.
Cheap Food From America
for Little Country Increases
Feeling of Friendship.

BRUSSELS. April I3.-One OF the
first things that strikes the foreign
observer here IS the growing revul-
sion OF Belgian national feeling
against her most Intimate wartime
allies. especially Great Britain.
While Britain. France and Italy
are disposed 10 blame the United
states for adopting a purely selfish
policy. Belgium-which Is receiving
cheap food from America alone. and
consequently has no crouch against
the United States--is looking ask
ance at the selfish policy OF Ang-
lC-FrancO- Italian governments, who
have BY no means made good the
generous promises showered on
poor little Belgium" in the hour
Of her trial.
Begin 20 Jeer Britain.
The scrap OF paper" incident.
which brought Britain into the war
caused the Belgian people 10 regard
Great Britain as their ultimate sa-
vior. There was something so in
spring about a nation, which was
not Immediately threatened with in
yasion. throwing down the gauntlet
on behalf Of her smaller neighbor.
Perhaps Belgians built too much on
this, but the utterances OF British
statesmen throughout the war only
tended 20 endorse and consolidate
this opinion Now weighing up per
fOrmances against promises, Belgium
is disposed 20 repeat the old jeer
bout Britain being a nation of
shOpkeepers' and 10 add somewhat
bitterly that the bookkeeping ma
ton seems to be wrapped up in self
interest.
Living Cost Factor.
The high cost OF living is, Of
course, a considerable factor. In
like America. Britain has sent very
little cheap food 10 Belgium. and the
Observant Belgian cannot fail to
note that he IS paying from two TO
three times the price OF foodstuffs
in England. The high rate OF ex-
change as between Belgium on the
one hand. and Britain and the United
States on the other, coupled with
a plethora OF Belgian paper money.
and an absence Of real wealth makes
10 far better business for Belgium
10 buy what she wants from Ger
Tnany-which. being still very bitter
against the author OF all her troubles,
Belgium IS not at all anxious TO do.
A further cause OF offense IS that
among the machinery sent by Brit
ain to Belgium IS much stuff marked
Made in Germany" which the pa
triotic Belgian hoped to avoid liz or
dering machine parts from England.
The promises as 10 reparatlOns and
restoration also still remain, in the
bulk, unrealized Sixteen months
after the signing OF the armistice
Belgium has not obtained restitution
Of much OF her machinery, rolling
stock. cattle. horses. etc. carried off
by the Germans.
Feels Badly Let Down.
In her negotiations with Holland,
Belgium feels that she has been
badly let down. Early I'm the war
