WAR IN EUROPE? f: Notwithstanding the compulsoivy disarmament of Germany as a result of the Versailles treaty, more, men are under aims and ready to fight in Europe today than in i9'M, prior loathe World war. There are conflicting interests and dangerous problems diyiding 'the European slates and. actual fighting is not as reiijote as most people think. The feverish anxiety of states men. .today to reach some agreement regarding armament reveals the fear which lurks 'in tnoir minds. . While there are other problems the three most dangerous issues in Europe today are probably these: (1) the Polish Corridor, that little 'harrow, neck of land connecting Poland with Danzig, which also divides and separates German ter ritory; (2) the conflicting ambitions of Italy and the en larged state of Jugo-Slavin over the control of Albania and with it the entrance into the Adriatic; and (3) .the continued resentment of Germany over its treatment since the end of the World war and an increasing determination to resume its place as an independent sovereignty. Of bourse, Germany does hot desire any war at the present time, i Compared with her neighboring stati Germany is hopelessly disarmed and incapable of waging a modern war. On the other hand, Franco and Poland see in the growing possibility of Germany being allowed to increase its 'military strength a strong danger and may desire to bring matter to a crisis now and prevent any possibility 'of ''a serious 'threat jn the future. Whether or not war shall come in Europe depends upon the attitude of France and her allies because unless these countries eventually consent to a revisionNif the post-war settlement all the aggravated problems con fronting Europe will continue to fester and may eventually provoke hostilities. Trading at home is tl e only way to maintain the pros perity of this community.
