"Th. moment when I was la Prague waa becauee It coincided a Ith Interesting th. close of th. Geneva meeting, and th. high point In the Europeandiscussion of the German offer of seby the ir and opened ' the sharpest kind of discussion of the whole question of European frontiers, of eastern and w extern guarantees. and, above all, of th. question of 1 reach relations with her two allies, and Poland Now what was th. Ciech view at but th. moment? Benes was at Parts, were th. view he was presenting singularly well known at his capital In th. elrat place, looked with a certain amount of disapproval on (hs Herman proposals, which were identified with Britain quit, as much a with Ger-- i any. Toe protocol, which Chamberlain had just rejected was tn a degree Benes' own creation. He had presented it at Geneve last September and dtsplaied no little Moreover the prid. of authorship. protocol was, after a manner, a sort of new charter for all. Europe, It gave a collective guarantee of all nations to the security of each, without regard to locality. Put th. German proposal, made a It waa with British approbation, ra'sed. anew the question of east and west. Th. Germans, in affect, offered to give all conceivable undertakings to regard a final th. decisions of the peace conference so far as they affected all th. country from the German ocean to fVwttaerland; that is, all th. frontiers which Germany had in common with Holland, Francs, Luxemburg and Swltserland. Italy, too, was Invited to Join th. arrangement, so that It might b. that Germany was also pre pared to guarantee Italian frontiers, which might become Involved If Germany should on. day annex Austria. fcurope a Ciecho-Blovakl- .

By th. ssms token, however, Germany limited herself to proposing mors trestles of arbitration with Poland which might and and Indeed would have to be interpreted a meaning that Germany had decided expectations of one day modifying Polish frontier, and the existing veto of Austrian union with Germany It might even be regarded aa a suggestion that soma day th. matter of th.

All these sgreements are -- directed at making. the existing frontier, permanent and all are strictly defensive. Now all of this policy of Bene waa expressed in the protocol, which did in general what had been don. before In part by separat. arrangement. In throwing over th. protocol th. British have been forced to fall back upon th. other Benes method, which was th. separata pact. But Benes and th. Csech. all perceive clearly that th. British difficulty lie.

It la patent how Intel real chanc. there la of any successful operation to bring about a limited revision of the map of Europ in Poland or elsewhere. Precisely the thing which haa Just been attempted and failed was undertaken by Lloyd Uorge in the famous Genoa conference c f UJ2. and It failed for the asms reason, namely, that the central European states, standing with France, blocked ths Lloyd George move. Uojd George wss all for remaking ths frontiers of Rumania and as well as Poland; Mr. Chamberaltn has chammuch a more modest pioned plan, but in principle equally obnoxious to all of the succession states.

British ar. unwilling to concern themselves with Polish or Tsecho frontier but anxious to get Franco-Germa- n quest Ions settled, but the underlying difficulty Is thst Franc holds th view that war is just as It dangerous to per if It come, on the Vistula as the Rhine and that war would come or the Vistula if Gerto change Polish many Undertook frontiers by force. Moreover, France, other European the by supported nations with similar views, opposes a block which British diplomacy can neither break down nor wear down. Kngland la willing Germany should expand south and, east. If she will accept the western situation: France believes that a Germany which resumes the process of expansion at the expense of other atatea will ultito her la the mately be danr-rovr.se, and recalls poignantly th. fact that Prussisn attacks upon Denmark and Austria in th. last eenturr were the prelude to the aHac k upon Francs of 1870.

In addition to bavin fascination It 1 own, an exceptionally interesting capital, politically speaking, at the present hour, for It Is, in a sense, the headquarter of thst European policy which is now in conflict with the narrower western policy- - of the British government. And for the second time, the Genoa conference being the first, it is M. Benes who ha really blocked an ambitious British attempt to organlts peaca In Kurop by obtaining- a guarantee from Germany In the west in return for per. mission for Germany to expand In the east and south at th expense of Poa and by the anland, nexation of Austria.

Austrian union with Germany would be a dangerous thing for It would almost encircle the littl.

And the same was equally true of the Usua of Uerman loinorltlea within their own frontiers. Aa-- to Poland, th.
