GERMAN REQUIREMENTS
WHAT HERR BALLIN WANTS.
Received, this day at 8.45 a.m.) AMSTERDAM, Aug. 29.
Herr Baffin has published important articles in the Hamburg “Frembeblatt” insisting on the absolute necessity of recovering the colonies intact; also of rounding off those in Africa and considerably increasing those in the Pacific. •
Herr Ballin points out that “the ‘Mittol Europe’ schemes are inadequate to provide the raw materials that are vital to Germany's industries. The countries producing cotton, coffee, jute rubber, and other products , must be under Gorman control, otherwise the Empire will ( ba under, the heel of England and the United States.” GERMAN ADMIRAL’S VIEW. (Received, This Day at 8.50. a.m.) AMSTERDAM, Aug. 29. Admiral von Capon also insists on the necessity of tropical possessions, and the securing of portions of Belgian Congo during the peace negotiations. German delegates mußt continually ask whether the colonies can supply the necessary row material, and are thickly populated enough to supply German planters and exploiters with the necessary labour. The coasts and islands of Eastern Asia aro particularly valuable.
