To the allied representatives gathered there, however, * it proved a bombshell. The new entente between Germany and Russia is what the allies make it. In itself it offers no danger, But unless allied statesmen show more prowess in their future dealings with these two countries than they have exhibited in the past, it can de- velop into a very real menace, It can mean much or little, peace or war. Just glance at your new map of Europe. Russia, vast, potentially rich, with a population. of 160,000,000, spreads out behind Germany like an unending back yard. Developed by Germany, whose energy, initiative, business ability and genius for or- _ ganization are second to none, trade betweenthe two countries could be made to spin _ like a top. The Germans know Russia and the Russians know the Germans, Before : war nearly everything one found in Russia save American harvesters bore the stamp “Made in Germany.” _ Germany and Russia can leave the rest of the world aside and make each other rich ru trade. That is one picture. The other is political. j Both countries have reason to feel resentment against the allied nations. Both fo get out from under & EES burden of debt.
