It is no longer a question between France and Germany, between France, and Germany. Locarno ha nway obstacles. k ains in urmy joined to any conceéivable basis assure the ex isting western frontiers for a long time at least. The question is whether Germany vearm because of the mies of her Poland anc or whether some s 2’ found to bring down their establishments. But again, no means n be found until the Russian danger is exorcised for them. Arbitration Complete. Europe has recognized, Geneva has asserted, time and again, that the rogram of settlement was, first, ar. itration, then security, then disarma ment. In the west a tion is com: plete, it even extends to central and astern Europe, exclusive of Russia and the British French will on by Great Obstacles to act together more and more, now the security issue has been elim- inated. But will Germany stay disarmed until the political obstacles to a gen- eral disarmament or far-going limi- tation of armaments can be removed The question 1s all here and for my- self T very much doubt it. Germany is too strong to stay helpess in an armed Europe. The European prob- lem is almost too intricate to be re- solved before Germany is able to arm herself as she may -choose. But even the gradual restoration of 1 measure of German military rength, which will give her a posi- “ion of equality with France, Britain ind Ttaly, does not mean any im- mediate or necessarily eventual re- newal of war. It does not even mean L renewal of the old race in arma- ments which did he!p to make war, ithough it was itself only one sy om of the disease which produced he conflict. It may be no more than one of the inevitable consequences of German escape from the purely ephemeral conditions resulting from defeat. Real Advance Doubtful. Meanwhile, it is difficult to see any really thorough-going achievement coming out of any present conference on arms. Useful agreements in de- tails are possible and doubtless worth while. But there is no such situation as attended the Washington confer- ence, where no political obstacles ob- structed the pathway, or where the single obstacle, the Japanese wishes THE The Public Library (Continued from Fourth Page.)
