DEMAND RENEWED
RETURN OF COLONIES GERMANY AND "WAR GUILT LIE" BERLIN, June 29. A renewal Of Germany's demand for return of colonies and retraction of the "war guilt lie" coincided with the double anniversary of the signing of the Versailles Treaty and the assassination at Serajevo. The "Kolnische Volks-Zeitung" says: "Only a few days before the anniversaries the central council of the Conservative Party in Britain voted against a discussion for a redistribution of colonial mandates in Africa, although half of the white farmers in Tanganyika declare themselves for a restitution of territory to Germany. No better proof of our ability to administer colonies could be given." Dr. Goebbels, Minister of Propaganda, declared: "The war guilt lie and the colonial lie are obstacles hindering the progress of the world. Cannot Britain, France, and Italy recognise the fault of the past? They wait until Germcny takes the initiative, and then feign deafness or are obstinate."
