THE NEW BELGIUM
LORD BRYCE DEPICTS THE FUTURE (Rec. April 9, 5.45 p.m.) London, April 8. Lord Br.yce, speaking at tho opening of the Belgian Town-l'lanning Exhibition, said that public opinion in the world agreed that those who had destroyed the Belgian cities, and inflicted poverty and hardship on the Belgian people, ought to be made to pay to the uttermost farthing. No compensation that could be given could match the harm which had been done, in the shape of the deaths and sufferings of innocent people, and all the world could do was to testify to the courage and devotion of tho Belgians, and tho fidelity of their obligations. He earnestly hoped that there would arise before them the vision of a new Belgium, delivered from the invader, happy,. prosperous, and contented. They would never lose tile admiration of mankind for the spirit they had shown and the manner in which they had home their misfortunes.—"Times" and Sydney "Sun" sorvices.
