THE FATE Or THE BALTIC STATES

Unquestionably, Great Britain has
certain responsibility towards
these States, though at present we
are rather inclined to forget it.
:. 1t may be recalled that
none of them achieved their juri-
dical status by virtue of Versailles,
but by peace treaties negotiated
with Russia. The States consolid-
ated their political, economic and
cultural life, and won recognition
from all nations without exception.
Mainly agricultural, they became
prosperous +. Their ports were
open to all the world, but they
gave Soviet Russia specifically ia
vorable terms for the transport of
goods by road and rail to their
ports. How little these concessions
were really needed was demonstra-
ted by the very infrequent use
made of them :.
When the outbreak of the Second
World War became imminent, Rus
sia demanded that Britain and
France should "guarantee" the Bal
tic States =. . against aggression,
but Britain declined to do so. The
States themselves did not desire
to be guaranteed by any Power. =.
They wanted neither Russian nor
German overlordship
In September 1889 4. Stain .
+. demanded from them pacts of
Mutual Assistance which involved
the handing over of naval, land and
air bases on their territories and
thereby the loss of the Independent
ce of their countries :. In the
summer of 1910, after the Russian
occupation of the three States, even
the semblance of their freedom dis
appeared. All this did not take
place without causing strong re-
percussions throughout Europe and
America. The Times. in it's Re-
view of the Year 1889, said that
Russia "took the opportunity to re-
duce the three small Baltic States
to vassallage".
More striking was the statement
of the American Undersecretary of
State, Mr.. Sumner Welles, after
the U. S. S. R. had consummated
it's seizure of the Baltic States by
Incorporating" them On July 23,

1910, he announced the firm oppo-
sition of the United States to the
predatory activities and devious
processes" by which Russia had
deliberately destroyed the indepen-
dence of the three states; the
United States could not recognize
changes made in that fashion =
and 50 far has not recognized
them
After the German attack the So
viets found it easier to represent
their action as one Of self-defense
against Germany. After long and
persistent propaganda the Soviets
seek to convince the democratic ma
tions that everything they did in
the Baltic was lawful and for the
benefit of the common cause. But
it has been impossible to cover up
the ruthless sovietization of the
three small states, the thousands
of executions and depOrtatlons IN
to remote regions of Russia. And
it should be noted, / think, here in
Britain, that official Soviet papers
such as War and the Working Class
state in the most cynical manner
that owing to Russia's weakness
in 1918-192O she lost the Baltic
States, but as Russia is now so
powerful she will simply take them
back again -.
