Rritain's New Enemeies

BrIraIn's three new enemies, as-
summg mat status by 4 formal
declaration II London, VIII not and
cannot tip the scales materially one
way OF the otner in the war. the &C
tIon taken Is merely a show OF re-
sentiment on BIltaIn's part because
the three small nations - Finland,
Hungary and Rumania-WouId not
cease fighting the English ally, Sc
Wet Russia.
Only Finland is fighting with 4
semblance of independent ChO4Ce
She was not angry at Britain, out
was very much so with Russia, fol-
lowing the Russo-Finnish var tHO.
years ago, which lost for her large
slices Of territory to Stains @up.rc
in the far north. Finland was merely
trying to get her possessions back
and seems 10 have succeeded fairly
Well. The fact that she was on Ger
many's side was purely CoinCidental
but, once started, she could hardly
let loose in the face of BeylIn'o edicu
to keep going, II else. And 1ot the
moment Berlin is in position to 40
much o harm to the tnns than
Britain can,
AS for Hungary and Rumania,
both are completely surrounded BY
Nazi-conquered or Nazi-dominated
countries. Neither had any choice.
Hungary was one of those small and
helpless nations which first fell IN
der Hitler control. Rumania was
invited" to accept NaZi "protection,'
which meant refusal to yield would
bring a like fate to that which calne
to other recalcitrant peoples.
Whether Britain has acted wisely
or not is a question time will reveal.
Certainly Hungary and Rumania
could not possibly comply with the
ultimatum of Churchills government
when they were overrun by Nazis.
Finland's course was but little less
difficult.
Neither Of the three has been IT.,
position to be of service to Britain
against the Germans, and by the
same token neither will be much of
a thorn in the flesh as an enemy.
Soldiers Of two of them are being

forced already to help Hitler where
ever and to whatever extent pos
sible. Unquestionably the Firms have
had enough of WarS-tWo against
Russia in as many years-and won't
relish ~belligerency against Britain,
ever if they We're in position to make
their efforts count.
Hungary, as her nationals in Lon
don have SAID in a statement, knows
that future freedom for her is pos
SlbIc only IN event Of British victory.
Most likely this nation and the other
two would be aligned on Brltain's
side now If II We're possible for them
to be.
In the matter Of Matchmaking. the
situation viii be no different under
formal British declaration. But there
will be a difference at the peace con-
ference, when, as London explains.
they Will be sitting on the other side
of the table. That, too, is something
wholly beyond their power u IN
troll. They are simply The unfortunate
victims of circumstances, ground be-
tween the upper and neither stones,
as it We're. That is war.

jured suffered only cuts and
bruises, and few were treated for
shock.
The woman killed was identified
by local authorities as Mrs. Dovie
Robertson, So. OF Selmer, Tenn.
Some confusion existed as to the
exact number Of persons hurt, and
the extent OF their injuries. All
the injured were brought to Cor.
inth's two hospitals, normally able
to care for about 40 patients. Due
to the over-taxing OF the facili.

unable to say just how many per.
