DEPORTATION OF
BELGIANS SERIOUS
' '
Charge Grew at Berlin Has Taken
Matter Up PersonaQy.
United Statei Viewi Germany's Ac
tion at Violation of Interna-
tional Law as Well as

4 WASHINGTON. Novambxr 14. Deoor
tfttlon of Belgian civilian Into Germany
tor forced labor haa reached uch serious
. proportions that American Charge Grew
t Berlin has been directed by the state
ueparxment to take the matter up per
tonally with Chancellor von Bethmamv
Holiweg. The charae u reauested to
3 aay that such deportations could not bul
nave a most unfortunate effect on neutral
'Opinion. narUcularlv In th United States.
Which has the welfare of the Belgian
civilian population very mucn at neart.
f The Instructions It was learned Tues-
day grew out of a lonr reDort from
Charge Grew In which he stated that he
nad discussed the situation informally and
imomclal v with Under Secretary of For
; Man Affairs Zimmerman. The fatter ad'
fit j '. pitted that a definite policy had been
:v;tf adopted to enforce the labor of Belgians in
-.janes where they would not work volun-v;-
iarlly on the ground that so many refused
ii'.t work as to make the strain on public
'Sxharity Intolerable.
Vj'tf The deportations are viewed here not
:joniy as a violation of International law
.tytout in a degree as a violation of Ger-
'ijplast June which though relating to the
'V 80.000 French women and alrls deported
from Ulle Roubalx and Tourcolng are
t1
i felt to be applicable to the Belgian sit
uatmn. At that time assurances were
given that no further deportations would
S'.t be made.

Wj". The deportations are regarded by some
jj inciais nere as an attempt to release lier-
Sm many workers for the firing line by re-
rf. placing them with Belgians.
