BEL GUM FEELS ENGLAND
FAILED TO KEEP WORD

from Germany-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 Britain
to Belgium is much stuff marked
"Made in Germany" which the patri-
otto Belgian hoped to avoid in order
ing parts from England. The prom
Use as to Preparations and restoration
also still remains in the bulk, un-
realized. Sixteen months after the
signing of the armistice Belgium has
not obtained restitution of much of
her machinery, rolling stock, horses,
CATTLE etc, carried off by the Ger
mans. t..
In her negotiations with Holland,
Belgium feels that she has been badly
let down. Early In the war England
promised q revision of the Treaty of
1889, and held out hopes of the res
toration of the Scheldt and a portion
Of Dutch Limburg to Belgium, but
recent developments give the impress
sion that British diplomats are sup
porting Holland rather than Belgium
in the negotiations. In the question
Of the trial of the former kaiser and
war criminals, too, Belgium accuses
Britain of being too eager to concili-
ate Holland, and the allies tacit con-
sent to-. the trial of selected "crimin-
ais" by the Leipsic courts has arous-
ed much bitterness here.
This is. not the view of disgruntl-
ed politicians and diplomats or ex-
tremists, many of whom say far
stronger things about British post
war policy, but it is the growing
feeling among thinking people of all
classes, who see in the allies struggle
with their own reconstruction prob
lens, especially as regards British
policy, a disposition to let gallant
little Belgium get out as best she
can.
Among the Belgian masses there is
far less discomfort and bolshevik
sentiment. than has been apparent in
the countries Of her less ravaged
neighbors. The Belgian people are
hardworking and thrifty, and with
their own national problems to solve,
they are facing the task of recon-
struction bravely.

Brussels, March 80 (by MaiD-
One of the first things that strikes
the foreign observer here is the grow
ing revolution Of Belgian national
feeling against her most intimate
wartime allies, especially Great
Britain. a.
While Britain, France and Italy
are disposed to 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 Anglo
Franco-Italian governments { who
have by no means made good the gen.
.erous promises showered on ''poor lit
tie Belgium" in the hour of her trial.
The "Scrap OF Paper" incident,
which brought Great Britain Into the
war caused the Belgian people to
regard Great Britain as their ulti-
mate savior. There was, something
so insuring about q nation, which
was not Immediately threatened with
invasion, throwing down the gaunt-
let on behalf Of her smaller neigh

on this, but the utterances Of British
statesmen throughout the war only
tended to endorse and consolidate
this opinion. Now weighing up per-
tormances against promises, Belgium
is disposed to repeat the old jeer
about Britain being a nation OF
shop keepers and to add somewhat
bitterly that the storekeeping nation
seems to be wrapped up in self-in-
terest.
The high cost Of living is, Of course
a considerable factor. Unlike Amer
lea, Britain has sent very little cheap
food to 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 exchange as between Bel
GUM on the one hand, and Britain
and the united States on the other,
coupled with a plethora of Belgian
paper money, and the absence of real
wealth makes it far better business
for Belgium to buy what she wants
