AT THE PEACE TABLE.

Onr Governments recognition Of the Czecho-
Slovak people Of Bohemia and Moravla as an
nation, though somewhat lons ue
layed, will be applauded by the country ana gen
erally throughout the world. They have SHOWN

they were forced into the ranks OF Austria carry
in the war. have refused to return to the quar-
kingdom and are now battling braveiy In 81
IBERIA in conjunction with allied troops TO holo
the country against German exploitation.
Rut the chief significance of this recognition
OF rty-loving people as natlonal ei.i.y
lies in the fact that the allies stand pledged TO
a first step in the breakup OF the ramshack!e
Hansburs empire An autonomous Bohemia is
To he carved out of it, and restored Poland
will take her rightful place among the nations.
BOSNIA and Montenegro probably Will be nmteu
with Serbia under the form of government Oh
their choice; and it will be strange indeed II
Hungary does not, when the war Is over, or pc
fore, break the CALLING ties that bind her TO tne
Germanized Hapsburg state.
Another advantage recognition VIII give JIG
heroic Czechs is seat at the council taples "
the allied nations when they frame the condl-
tions of peace. If historical precedent is fol-
lowed. belligerents alone will be allowed part
in these negotiations Neutral nations VIII not
be admitted, and in matters where their inter
ests are concerned will have to bring their
views before the conference through friendly
states.
The desire to have part in the conference
which is to remake the political map OF Europe
may influence Spain and other states to break
with Germany now that her defeat is clearly
forecast. But an eleventh-hour entrance INTO
the war. after the conflict was virtually over,
mi ght not secure them the coveted privilege
from nations which have borne the heat ana

A BR1r1sH pRoTEcT1oNIsT.

A possible danger in the plan to boycott uer-
man goods is seen by Lionel Martin, vice CHAIR
man of the London Chamber of Commerce, VINO
points out that without revenues derived from
a considerable share in world trade Germany
and Austria would not be able to pay lndemm-
ties. The suggestion is not new, but 1t must be
considered. Mr.. Martin announced has opposl-
ton to the boycott proposal when the LlVerpool
Cotton association adopted resolutions against
trading with enemy countries for period OF ten
wears after the war. eff we boycott German
goods for ten years. he said, it is dlthcult 70
see how we are going to get an indemnity ne
finds another objection to the plan, saying 'he
Germans would have to sell their goods some
where and mi ght sell in countries wiling 10 take
advantage of cheap supplies, thus underseiilng
British and allied manufacturers. Ihese points
are we'll taken but the boycott threat IS not IKE
lv to be withdrawn at this time. Ihe ailes
have a powerful weapon in their control Oh
raw materials, and they can use 1t to force ger
MANY to accept their terms. But tarl1rs may
be made as effective as trade boycott, ana IL
is worth noting that Mr. Martin says that unless
the British government realizes their import
ance all the benefits gained in the last few years
in capturing trade which formerly belonged TO
Germany will be lost.
