HOSTILE DEMONSTRATIONS ' IN' BELGIUM BRUSSELS POLICE CENSURED & THREATENED. SABOTEURS BECOMING MORE DARING. (By Telegraph—Press Association—Copyright) (Received This Day, 1.0 p.m.) LONDON, July 29. The Germans have severely censured and threatened the- Brussels police for neglecting to suppress anti-German demonstrations on the Belgian National Day, July 21. These demonstrations were on a vast scale'. The public patrolled the boulevards throughout the day, booing the Germans, despite an order forbidding a procession. Similar demonstrations broke out in Antwerp and other towns, but Brussels was particularly bitter after the arrqst of its Burgomaster, M. Vendenmen Lebroeck. Saboteurs are becoming more daring in Brussels. As an example, Belgians forced to work on the Haeren Aerodrome sounded sirens as a false alarm. When the Germans sheltered, the Belgians seized their abandoned weapons and fled, after cutting telephone wires.
There have been several instances of grenade throwing in Malines. One grenade was thrown at the house of a German officer. The house was seriously damaged.
