After the Victory

The great Polish victory has
temporarily disposed of a menace
that ten days ago ratified it's tail
and raised it's fangs. But the snake
is not killed-it is scarcely scotched.
What is to be done to safeguard
the future? This, rather than the
line of the Russo-Polish frontier,
is the big international problem
of the hour. Have the Western de-
mocracies learned anything since
Armistice Day? Are they now wilY
ing to have real peace protection?
Or will they countenance ideas
whose application means war and
more war? Washington in it's warn
ing to Poland apparently assumes
they have learned nothing.
The problem as to Russia is essen
TALLY the problem as to Germany.
Was Germany to be allowed to do
1t again? Peace-without-victory adj
vocates said she should be-that she
should be trusted in advance of her
furnishing evidence that she was
entitled to trust.
Happily, Clemenceau and Foch, in
the face Of the mean and baseless
charge that they were imperialists,
had the intelligent frmness to in
sist on German disarmament and
the establishment of a defensible
frontier. Are you friend of peace?
Then doff your hat to the French
craftsmanship which defeated the
project to act toward Germany as
if nothing had happened. Except
for the "guaranties" France secured,
German armies last week might
have again marched Rhineward.
1t is doubtless not feasible to dis
arm Russia, although something
along this line can be achieved by
scrutlnizing exports. But at least
dixie can be built Poland is called
on to be guardian of the marches
of civilization, and she may we'll
ask to be sustained as such. The
border Russian states should be in
Vited to keep watch with Poland,
not merely to protect their right of
self-determination, but for deeper
reasons.
Pilsudski will be called an i'm
perialist. He has already been. Let
us hope he is of the stuff to disre-
gard the vaporings of those who
would have peace, but forthwith
urge a policy whose adoption means
war. He cannot coerce the rest of
the world into accepting the truth.
But at least he can present it
strongly and without evasion or
apology.
In no quarter is there disposition
to punish the people of Russia. All
would have them free and pros
porous But they must see to it that
they get leaders and institutions
worthy of confidence. This is their
business. AS long as they neglect
it, as long as their armies are under
the command Of Lenines and Trotz-
kys, there is no choice to democracy
but to keep weapon above the
mantelpiece, even as our forefathers
did when savage yell and a whizz
of tomahawk informed that the
older Reds We're on the warpath.

The internal (domcstic) political
situation may be characterized by one
word--it is now, as before, unsettled
notwithstanding the fact that momen-
tarily things have quoted down to a
certain extent The former "magis-
tcrial state" in Germany has been re-
placed by a peoples state with con-
stitution perhaps more outspokenly
democratic than that of any other coun-
try. To these entirely new conditions
the people, little familiar with self
government, will have to adapt them
selves in the first place, an exceedingly
difficult task in consequence of the de-
plorable war and oppressive peace
treaty dictated to them.
The late administration, having its
origin in the National Assembly and
consisting of Social Democrats (Social-
lists Of the moderate group and of
members of two bourgeois parties, the
Catholic Center party and Democrats,
had at the outset for months to con-
tend with coups d'etat of the Right
