peace the fact is unfortunate yet it is a fundamental fully as important as any detail of the diplomatic re grouping which the franco- russian pact achieves when the accord was negotiated nearly a

hard out of the current debates in the french chamber the treaty emerges with its military aspects in boldest relief there is haste haste occa- soncd for france by the swift re armament of germany for russia by the added pressure of japanese expansion and militarism the original concepts of a pact to which germany poland and other nations might adhere is practically for gotten the developmnt ot the
