Czechs Plight Summed Up
LONDON, October 26,
Summing up Czechoslovakia’s position in the light of the post-crisis development, the Prague correspondent of the “Daily Telegraph” states that to speak of economic reconstruction is about as reasonable as the offer of 250 passports dan be of practical help in settling the question of 100,000 homeless refugees. The question has not even been settled whether Czechoslovakia should rebuild her shattered industries or relapse into a purely peasant State, depending for existence upon supplying grain to Germany. The one thing certain, says the correspondent, is that the course taken will be the one Germany desires. The cnly possibility of Britain land France retaining a fraction of their former influence is Czechoslovakia’s need of loans, which Germany is unable to supply, and it is the only hope of arresting the drift to Fascist totalitarianism and anti-Semitism.
