MIRACLES OF HEROISM BY THE BELGIANS
Brussels, To-day. BELGIAN TROOPS HAVE been performing miracles of heroism, M. Delfosse, Belgian Minister of Communications, said in a broadcast yesterday. He gave an instance in which a Belgian major, with three privates, re-captured a pill-box fort after a hand-grenade charge.
For the past three days, he said, the Belgians had been resisting in their second-line positions. A great number of British and French troops

were coming up, each hour in support ORDER
with "admirable equipment."
"Be firm and confident," he said; "The aggressor always has the initial advantage, but from hour. to hour the defence becomes more effective. Germany could not face the blockade nor withstand a long war. The Al- lled power and resources are greatly superior to hers."Reuter.
