The miles and miles of new frontiers in Europe are not "imaginary" "and not confined ta maps. You can walk right up and jfcouch them. Out there in central and eastern Eu rrop'e, frontiers are fine-tooth combs, - that delay trains for hours at every - crossing point. Some of the new fron tiers are "flying walls" of soldiers with - fixed bayonets. Others are guarded -fences. Travelers without exceptional cre 'iSentials go through searching exam Laations, often bodily "friskings." Soldiers armed to the teeth guard the trains and passengers during ex aminations and customs inspections, So see that nobody gets out or in with vfittt the official papers. Roads at frontier points are also guarded by soldiers who preside over striped gates that go up and down like She crossing gates of American rail ways. , Passports and vises in the new coun tries are made as difficult as possible.
