I tin- advocacy of .1 revision of the Tr? aty of Versailles, a revision in favor of Germany, not merely in tin* matter of reparations but also of territories. In addition there is the desire to forward a policy of gen eral disarmament. Therefore British activities in the near future seem destined ro encounter not merely French but general Continental op position. It is true that most of the states bordering Germany would like to Lee a restoration of German economic prosperity Insofar as this was not accompanied by any return of mili tary strength and any reversion to imperialistic policies. Within certain limits, then, these states might seek It) moderate ? any French policies which seemed unnecessarily severe vind destructive. Hut. in the last an alysis. they would slill b? hound to stand with France, if the choice should colore between France and Britain. The. difficulty for the British is 'found in the fact that there is no longer any considerable British army ? ind. ev? ii if the Central Succession St ?it es desired to lrav% Fratice and rally to Britain they would he slap ped by the fact that such a change of front would leave them defence less in the face of Germany. The failure of the British to support the (I reeks after Lloyd George had en couraged the Greeks to infade Asia Minor and the earlier refusal of the Britislt- to aid in Polish resistance, when the Bolshevists were advanc ing upon Warsaw* will long serve to deter Continental states from lis tening to British arguments. In any event the signing of this new Treaty at this moment serves to give additional evidence of the character of the contest which is coming before long in Europe. The Labor Ministry Is certain to chal lenge French policies and French supremacy in Europe. It is bound to seek to undermine French Influ ? nee and seek to break down the system of alliances France has con structed. In the face of the com ing Ktorm the French are quit/.* as I itetitly - mending their fences and consolidating their positions. The alliance with Czech-Slovakia has one more important element. It may prove a bridge between Paris and .Moscow and kvitl to an eventual adjustment between Soviet llussial axl the French -Republic. Could | this be acheived. the French position | in Kurope would be almost Im pregnable and it is apiKirent that every Krt'iuh effort will now be] made to bring this about. Today! 1'ruKue Is the friendliest European capital to Moscow and Prague and Paris have Just completed an ulli-j ance. This is. at least, highly signi ficant.
