In tha main analogous to the reasons which explained the American rejection pf iha co enant The people of the dominions most emphatically refused to ee themselves committed to maintain status quo all ovsr Europe. Australia was not concerned with the frontiers of Poland nor Canada with those of Rumania And the British people thcmsehes. upon mature con sideraflon, were appalled by the extent to which the .protocol would commit them. red Bo tha dona to death by Chamberlain In Geneva last March Nevertheless mere rejection of the protocol did not and could not constitute a policy, if you read the speeches, the comments, the opinions of British statesmen expressed In the past year o t two you will be struck hy the fact that all y agree In honcadlng' that the old of Isolation Is Impossible When on near mounted the cliffs guns ratals can bombard London, when Dunkirk and Boulogne might be used as submarine bases and the whole Belgian and French coasts as tha starting point tor can raids. R 4a neither risk plain that Britain a war with France nor permit any strong nation. having conquered France, to establish Itself at these points The frontiers of France and Belthen.' the geographical gium become the strategic frontiers of Britain, hut It follows then that Britain Is not merely Interested In the maintenance of these frontiers. that is. in French security she Is also interested in French policy. for, no matter whether French or provocative, policy be pacific Brjtlah security will be equally menaced If Franc gets Into war. with Germany. No matter whether Germany or France Is the aggreskor in the first Instance. Britain cannot permit a victorious Germany to reach the channel. And Germany cannot defeat France In war without becoming master of the channel ports, as she cannot successfully Injust vade France aave through Belgium MUST SUPPORT FRANCE. Thus the British are rather awkThey are, after all. wardly placed In danger of becoming victims of French qolicy, if that policy should be aggressive; In a aense they are committed to support France, right or wrong Thus patently it becomes a matter of the first importance for the British to exercise sufficient influence upon French policy to .prevent war And In reality it becumes the mission of Britain to keep the peace between Franc's and Germany. Now the simple way, the way favored by the French and by certain Englishmen, would he to give France and Belgium a straight British guarantee. Germany would then be on notice that an Attack upon France with Great BritwouJH mean ain. But this would, in so bald a form, constitute an alliance with France and against Germany, which la precisely the thing that the British Itv t$l V they-we- re wish bound to fight on the side of France If Germany attacked but France, they refused up to the last minute to accept la legal obligation to do what was a necessity BRITISH SITUATION PECULIAR. Today tha British believt that a straight-ou- t guarantee to Franca would be a provocation to Germany And they do not tiestrs to challenge Germany or provoke her It ia not because of any sentimental feeling for Franc that Britain must stand with her against Germany In case of war; (t la for tha most material of all reasons that of What the British delira to do there Is to guarantee not France against Ore many, butA-atata-fact In th west of Europe which la essential to their own security. What they desire to eecape Is the creation In the Oerman mind of the belief' that will Britain fight Germany for French reasons or sympathies. That ia why tbe dlract guarantee hangs fire. In reality what the British are after la to get a state of facta which Germany will accept, or, to put St more exactly, they are anxious to get Germany to concede aa permanent that stats of facts which tn British regard as hecessary, namely, the status quo as It affects France, Belgium and Holland on the one hand, and Germany on the other If Germany guarantees French and Belgian security, then Britain can do like- - f au Englith Hope oLAmeri-- , can Aid in World Peace Fades Away. - protocol-disappea- Empire Must Now Resort to Diplomacy as Means of Delaying Conflict pol-k- "v H.
