EX-GERMAN COLONIES
DEMAND FOR RETURN. LEAGUE ADMINISTRATION. OPEN TO CRITICISM.. <Y CABLE -PRESS ASSOCIATION—COPYRIGHT BERLIN, Sept. 19. At the annua,l meeting of the Colonial Association, which has a membership of 20,0 UR, the customary resolutions dealing with the return oi the German colonies were earned and a semifkant speech was made by Professor Henning upon the exploitation of the League of Nations for German colonial needs. Professor Henning insusted that Germany held the best trumps in the negotiations at Geneva, and it was unpardonable if she did 1 not use them. She could direct 'annihilating criticism at Geneva on the. way many of the mandates were administered. “If the mandatory Powers treat the German colonies- as their own possessions, then Germany is entitled to have the value of the colonies credited to her against reparations,” said Professor Henning. Another speaker said it was the bitter truth that Germany would never get her colonies 1 again until she was able to throw the weight- of her power into- the scale.
