THE CZECHS' FUTURE
A PEASANT STATE?
GERMAN DESIRES WILL BE
ACHIEVED
LONDON, October 26. The Prague correspondent of the "Daily Telegraph," summing up Czechoslovakia's position in the light of developments after the crisis, states that to speak of economic reconstruction is-about as reasonable as to say that an offer of 250 visas can be of practical help in settling the question of the 100,000 homeless refugees. The question, he says, is not even settled as to whether Czechoslovakia should rebuild her shattered industries or relapse into being a purely peasant State depending for her existence on supplying grain to Germany. One thing is certain, that the course taken will be one that Germany' desires. The only possibility of Britain and France retaining a fraction of their former influence is Czechoslovakia's dire need for loans, which Germany is unable to supply and which is the only hope, therefore, of arresting Czechoslovakia's drift to Fascist totalitarianism, and antiSemitism.
