Let us check a few details |of this ghastly record. In the night of August 3â€"4, the Gerâ€" man army invaded Belgium. In the province of Namur alone 1,149 civilians were killed and 3,000 houses were desâ€" troyed. After their entry into Louvain |the Germans set fire to the centre of |\the city, when the famous Cathedral |<f St. Pierre and 1,120 houses were desâ€" | troyed. Almost 89 cf the civil populaâ€" | tion were shot summarily on the ercundas they had been "aiding the enemy." In order to disorganize the the Germans scught to exploit the: lingu‘istic differences between the the northern and southern provinces with the he‘> of the soâ€"called "parti activiste." This grovp consisted of a small minority of men and women who expected Germany to be victorious and went about spreading their gospel of defeatism. They were the forerurner of the "fifth cclumns" of 1940. To the last, hcowever, the Belgian nation maintained with inflexible fortitude its antiâ€"Gerâ€" man attitude. To show how active these "activistes" were and how much they resemisled the betrayal groups which served Germany so well in Norway, we should recall the fact that, under their direction, a movement was inaugurated confirmed the priority claim in the sum of 20¢6,000,000 gold marks. In addition the Allies agreed to transfer Belgium‘s war delot of 5,6009,000,000 francs to the German reparations account. In the field of military alliances, Pelgium and France came to an Aagreeâ€" ment at a conference in 1920 when a military alliance of a purely defensive character was concluded. In the Locarâ€" n~ Pact af Cictchber 16, 1925, Germany, France, Italy, Belgium and Great Briâ€" tain took note of the abrogation of the treaties of neutralization of Belgium. A treaty was signed in Paris, May 22, 1926, by Britain, France and Belgium, abrogation of these treaties. with the avowed purpose of creating| a new separate Flemish state under German protection.

I When the Germans came into Belâ€" gium it marked the end of Belgian industry. Raw materials were at once requisitioned by the invaders. Foreign enterprises were put under sequester. In 1915, central offices were set up by the Germans for the conirol of the coal, oil, greas>, water, electrical and gas industries, By June of 1918 the record shows that 167 factories had been completely destroyed, and 161 put on the governorâ€"sgeneral‘s list for imâ€" he newly completed Columbia Trefield hizhway. lea®ng northâ€" l Tcefield highway, lea‘mng northâ€" ward from Banff and Lake TLouise in the Canadian Rockies, will provide unique motoring thrills when it is officially opened for traffic in July.

Food Shortage One of the supreme tragedies of the cocupation ~â€"was ~the» ~food shortage. Scarcity was felt as early as November of 1914. Immediately on occupation the Germans repealed all measures issued by the Belgian government to provide food rationing. The Belgians formed central committee to import food, but Britain, realizing it would be moved Armistice." That would be going some. In the field of military alliances, Pelgium and France came to an Aagreeâ€" ment at a conference in 1920 when a military alliance of a purely defensive character was concluded.

The value of this work, and the need for it, is evidenced by the fact that had distributed foodstuffs to the value by December 31, 1918, the commission cf over three and a half billion francs. But while Belgium suffered from economic disabilities, she was doomed also to suffer the torment cf expatriaâ€" tion and separation of familiés. At the same time that the Germans forced the Belgian government to retire from Brussels, to Antwerp, then to OQostend, ard then to Havre, France, more than 1,000,000 Belgian civilians, women and children and men over military age, fled the csountry. It was fortunate Holâ€" land was nCt at war, for that little country formed a safe refuge for more than 7000,000 Belgian refugees. When the war ended and reparations were being assessed, Belgium was granted a priority claim in the sum of 20¢,000,000 gold marks. In addition the Allies agreed to transfer Belgium‘s war delot of 5,6009,000,000 francs to the German reparations account. A treaty was signed in Paris, May 22, 1926, by Britain, France and Belgium, confirmed the abrogation of these treaties. "Hmm," was the respruse. "Those cases are becoming far tco câ€"mmon.
