cially be at the mercy of the Ger

Danzig Settlement a Compromise.
The real argument against the Danzig
settlement. it seems to me-. is that It is
a compromise. Poland claimed all OF
ince of West Prussia. Such a claim, if
honored, would have placed some three
million Germans under Polish rule, but
It would have enabled Poland to develop
as really great nation and would have
abolished the situation which existed
when Frederick the Great engineered
the first partition, the situation which
led him to plan that crime. AS it is.
we have restored the situation and
thrust narrow neck of territory. main
two blocks of German territory.
Had East Prussia been coded to Po-
land it would at no distant time been
Slavicised. since it is occupied by great
Junker estates and would have been
broken up by the Poles into peasant
properties and divided among the Poles,
who in recent decades have made great
progress in retaining this land. which
was once Polish, even against German
official effort. But against giving DAN
zig to Poland and against any consid-
cradle corridor. Lloyd George set his
face, contrary to the advice of American
and British experts alike, and in his op-
position President Wilson presently, but
not at the outset, joined.
Failing this, it seems to me it would
have been far better to have abandoned
all idea of giving Poland access to the
sea, rather than to have had recourse
to weak compromise which gives Po-
land only shadow of what she claimed
and holds out to the Germans forever
the temptation to regain the districts
once annexed by Frederick the Great.
districts which the Poles alone cannot
defend. and France and Great Britain,
with the United States. can only keep
Polish at the price Of preserving Ger
man hostility and precluding any toler-
able adjustment, tolerable to both Ger
many and her recent enemies, such as
must come, if world peace is to be pre-
served

tossed back and forth. Poland repair
titioned. Italy turned back to its old
tyrants, Belgium bestowed upon Hol-
land, every national aspiration, every
democratic and moral consideration
outraged. and it reveals a gain In a
century which is almost incalculAble.
And this is the single fair comparison.
To measure 1t beside the impossible
aspirations. hopes, dreams Of those
who saw the approach of the millen-
MUM one brief year ago. is to subject
it to an unreasonable test.

We have a dozen controversies where

Chicago, Oct. s.-Prospects that wet
weather might interfere with the
movement of corn from first hands had
bullish effect today on the corn mar
ket. The government crop report
seemd to exert no contrary influence
and was regarded as having been dis
counted beforehand. Opening prices
which varied from the same as yester-
days finish to Il higher, with Deem
Der 1.22A to 1928 and May 1.21 to
1.2lt, were followed by moderate
gains all around.
Subsequently reports that several Of
ferings had increased and that a rail-
road freight embargo had been put in
force at New York led to a downturn
in prices. The close was firm, q to
Ia net higher with December ut
123h to 1.23% and May at 1918 to
122.
Bidding from exporters gave strength
to oats. After opening unchanged to
s. higher. including December at 7Oa
