Show Belgium Guard Radium Fear of bandits has caused Belgian Interests, who own a large tract o( radium-bearing rock In central Africa, .to make special plana to guurd the property. Armed sentries are on duty night and day, lines of tangled barbed wire have been placed around the district, and only a few persons besides those employed are permitted to handle the precious metal.
