To soften hatreds czech Frontier revision defended by Kirkconnell any attempt to crush the democratic czechs would be a grave wrong. But this was something quite different from revising the frontiers of Czechoslovakia half of whose population was composed of races hostile to the czechs who had been compelled against their wills to form part of that state at the time of the treaty of Versailles.

They were Wenzel Jaksch Leader 01 the German social democratic Sarty and John Wanka spokesman i0r a group of centralist germans. Other for 300 years he said. Goeb Bels and the nazi department of propaganda had exploited that situation but they had not created it. Strategic boundaries if one believed that racial self determination should be the basis for state building then it was arguable that the allies had made grave errors in settling the frontiers of Czechoslovakia which had been chosen for military purposes so As to make the state an impregnable fortress facing Germany with Mountain ranges on All sides. Within those frontiers were czechs and people of other races hostile to the czechs. The czechs had seized the Peschen Coal area by Force from Poland in 1919 and the poles in taking it Back believed they were Only recovering property stolen from them. Czecho Slovakia had been Given a Section of purely hungarian territory in order that it might have a Good port on the Danube prof. Kirk Connell stated. If one believed that the Only Way to it peace in Europe was to Knock Germany Down and keep her Down there was a Case for the retention of Czechoslovakia s 1919 frontiers prof Kirkconnell continued. But if one believed As he did that a Perm Anent settlement could hardly be based on keeping one of the most advanced nations of Europe in perpetual subjection then there was a Case for revision. Queries Hitler Promise so much depends on How much you believe Hitler s statement that the sudetenland is his last territorial demand on prof. Kirkconnell observed. I wonder.

Wheat exporting countries can he said either continue at enormous Cost to their growers and their governments to carry on a wheat War for the lion s share of a de Clining Market or they May come an understanding to share among them on some equitable basis the shrunken world Market for wheat i am not advocating an airtight world Cartel for he said. But i am advancing some form of International co operation be tween world wheat exporting countries to which the world Cartel May be major strange was doubtful if any agreement signed by Export ing countries to limit wheat ship ments would be kept. He cited the failure of the International wheat agreement signed in 1933, which was broken Only a few months after it was signed.
