Impelled by consciousness of mill tary power and of the divergent ten dencies of British policy, France has been compensating for the incom pleteness of the victory and for fail ure to secure the desired guaranties from the1 peace conference. It has formed an entente for mutual de fense with Poland, which has taken tha place of Russia as an eastern bulwark against German aggression, It has encouraged Czecho-Slovakia, Jugo-Slavia and Roumania to form the little entente for protection against restoration of the Hapsburgs and against possible aggression by '- Germany, Austria and Hungary.
