Middle Europe the Stake

From the New Republic ...sr
 Central Europe exists. At Gallpoli, at Saloniki, from Rumania, three times the allies have tried to cut it apart, and failed. This middle Europe is no em- pire won by conquest, to be assimilated merely by force. It rests on the strong est kind of economic foundation and is welded by the experience of war. Ger manys bid for peace, her reported will lingness to enter league of nations, is a request for the acknowledgment and guaranty of middle Europe Many signs indicate that after prolonged vacillation. extending back many years before the war, Germany has at last settled on mid dle Europe as her destiny. She holds that today It presents enormous oppor- tunities to German talent. and that is why there is statesmanship and not merely propaganda in Germany's increas-
 ing willingness to take up liberal as op- posed 10 militarist ideas. The organiza- ton of central Europe requires a peace ful world.
 The question which Germany has put to the allies. but especially to Britain, is this: Do you recognize this new situa- ton as rnalterable and will you accept the loss of prestige which results from it? The answer must turn on very diff ficult judgment of the military situation. If the allies are humanly sure that at a bearable cost they can win a victory which will destroy the predominance of middle Europe on the continent and re- trieve British imperial prestige, a rejec- tion of the German proposal will be or thodox. But if they are once again un- derestimating the strength of the cen trai alliance, if through vanity or stub- bornness they are unable to face the facts then refusal to negotiate is an abom- inab.e waste of life, and the statesman wIo refuses peace now will have to an swer for it next sumner perhaps a year from next summer. Woe to him if he or phans and widows and staryes a million homes and is then forced to negotiate the same peace which is offered to him now.
