GERMANY IS COOL
TOCORR|DOR PLAN
Solution of Polish Problem
Receives Little Press
Comment.

BERLIN Germany. August "a
Count Coudenhove Kalergi's proposal
for a solution of the Polish corridor
problem has failed to arouse the inter-
est of the German people Only a few
the well known leader of the pan-Eu-
ropean movement, which provides for
q land connection between the Reich
and East Prussia.
Count Kalergi proposes the restitu-
ton of the eastern corridor. including
Danzig, to Germany. Since a majority
of the population in this district are
OF the German race, such territorial
concession would not be unacceptable
to the Poles, according to Count Kalergi
Calls for Polish Free Port.
cording to Count Kalergi's plan, a mar
row strip of land would be designated
under German sovereignty to enable
Germans to travel to East Prussia with
out passing through Poland. Wherever
this path would be likely to hinder
Polish traffic, the German road would
be laid in a tunnel
The Poles, on the other hand,
would be compensated for this cessicn
with the same amount of Germany ter
ritory. Polish free port, modelled
after the Czechoslovakian free port In
Hamburg would be established at DAN
zig. From Dirschau to the new Polish
harbor Of Gdynia, canal would be
built and put under Polish sovereignty.
Germans Cool to Plan.
These are the elements of Count
Kalergi's plan. but neither the Ger
mans nor Poles are ready to discuss it
seriously. According to German off,
Gals. this scheme contains no solution
of the corridor problem, as it does not
do away with the isolation of East Prus-
STA. 4
"A narrow bridge from Germany to
East Prussia would not change any
thing in the East Prussian situation -
a German diplomat said.
More and more it appears that a
German-Polish customs union would be
the only solution of this troublesome
problem. 1t would definitely eliminate
East Prussian isolation without humil-
Eating Poland. Unfortunately. such
solution is far of. but so is a compro-
mise along Count Kalergi's proposal.

Statesman's Tact Won
Eriendshin of Dickens

Charles Dickens, as Is we'll known,
had very little use for politicians. In
deed throughout all his writings this
dIsdaln, which amounts frequently TO
utter disgust is reflected. 1t was but
natural, therefore. that Premier Dis
raeli should come under his fire.
Referring to the statesman once In
private conversation. he spoke bitterly
of that dog" carrying on In parlia-
ment. Within a few months he met
Disraeli for the first time. He could
hardly wait to write to friend.
"What delightful fellow he is What
pity 1t is that he should ever have
abandoned literature for politics =
The incident Is significant from two
standpoints. 1t Is another striking
illustration of how a man big and
broad and sympathetic enough to con-
ceive ''Dombey and Son." Little Dor
ritz and David Copperfeld" is happy
to correct hastily formed erroneous
impression. And 1t reveals again the
suaye dexterity of Benjamin Disraell.
1T Is evident that the premier talked
not of politics that day to Charles
Dickens, but of literature. And he
made OF him friend. Disraeli was
always making friends-just like that.

Not Known How Podunk
Acquired Odd Meaning

Podunk is derisive name for any
small out-of-the-way country town or
village, says an article 10 Pathfinder
Magazine. No such post office Is list
ed In the United States Postal Guide,
and 1t Is not known how the name ac-
CURED its odd meaning. As early as
1877 John X. Bartlett defined Podunk
as "a term applied to an imaginary
place In burlesk writing or speaking
The name Is Of Indian origin.
The Podunk Indians were a small
tribe who lived In South Windsor,
Hartford county. Conn. and Podunk,
their village, was at the mouth OF the
small stream which still bears the
name Podunk. At the close of King
Phillips war In 1915 the Podunks,
also known as the Windsor Indians,
disappeared with the hostile warriors
and never returned.
There Is a Podunk pond In North
Brookfield, Worcester county. MasA,
and a local historian gives the Indian
meaning Of the name as place Of
burning" 1t seems more probable
that Podunk is identical with Potunk,
a place name on Long Island, which In
probably derived from "Ptuk-ohke,"
an Algonquinian word meaning u neck
or corner OF land"
