Only 28 per cent of the border line was more or- less artificial, and even this was well marked by cliffs and mountains. By the terms of the Peace Treaty, Hun- gary will have but 24 per cent natur- al border line composed entirely of rivers, and 76 per cent will be artifi- cial. The 23 railroads of ‘the old Hun- gary are reduced to 16, and the 325,- 411 square kilometers of territory to 93,984 square kilometers. The ‘pre- war population of 20,800,000 has been cut by ‘the new border linés to- 7,800,000.
