France saw her chance, and grabbed it. In proclaiming her solidity with America on the Russian question. France, however, did so wltbr-maay mental reservations. It was soon made dear from Wasotegton that we have no Intention' of reeognndnjc Wrangle, and rather disapprove that step. What Is of vastly greater im portance, the state department Indi cated that unless France accepted the principle of the integrity of Russia, the viewpoints of the countries were not Identical. Behind -the scenes in Paris for the past week, ever since that intimation was received, there has been anxious debate. For unrealized by the public of any nation, there lurks In that phrase Integrity of Russia" an Issue big enough to set the world ablaze some day. and Mr enough now to Use up the great Ptfwsis who fought to gether against Germany into opposite camp?. flanntlet to Bngland and Japan. The phrase "Integrity of Russia." which America now champions, throws down the gauntlet to England and Japan. In maintaining such a poller, the United States has hitherto stood alone. Wilson and Colby ban setzeoythe moment of the French cry for help on the issue of Poland and of bolshevik recognition to propose a bargain. France cried In effect to America. "England has abandoned Poland. If Poland goes down, we have lost the war. England wants to make peace with the bolsheviks. If she does Rus sia wilt never recover and France wtH soon be crashed by a bolshevik-German alliance, or by Germany alone." Russia is potentially the greatest nation on earth. Who can expect her to sit still under this Insjdting. de grading and crippling situation that will confront her when her present agony Is over? What can possibly Be expected but a great world convul sion In which Germany, of course, TtJil ally herself with Russia and the two crushed and beaten nations turn, on England and Japan? mertean policy, designed solely to prevent this terri ble prospect, desires Russia's heritage to be kept for her In trust Wo wane England to realize and acknowledge that Russia went down after she had made our common victory possible by her efforts, and not to despoil the prostrate giant. It Isn't good ethics. and its also bad policy. As France Sees It. French policy has all along object ed to the British sustaining the Bal tic states, and has insisted that they ought to be handed back to a regen erated Russia: that Russia ought ul timately to get the Dardanelles, and a considerable part of what Englas-I not of course, what France has taken In Asia Minor. But until the last few days France was in no mood to challenge her aUr across the channel on this stupendous question. French statesmen believe that Rus sia, when she does return to sanity, will be filled with rage and bitter ness against her allies for the war they hav treated her badly. This worries France, who would like to have Russia some day tor her ally again against the ever-dreaded dan ger of the Rhine. Now that the United States has for mally and publicly announced its Inter est In the Integrity of Russta." France appears to have given her ad herence. Just what this means it is too soon to Judge. The Qua! dOmy Is tricky and may merely Intend to whisper to Downing street, "America is against your Russian policy. She wants us to Join her. Between us we can make things very awkward for you. So you'd better give us our way in Poland. let us continue to try to overthrow the bolsheviks, and be less selfish Is Syria. If you'll do these things we'll not bother more about this Integrity of Russia.'" V. S. Too Wlby-Wahy. Yesterday a Frenchman of Import ance whom X was trying to sound on thess high matters suddenly took to sounding me. "Isn't It really the Pa cific and cot the Baltic or the Dar danelles, that Interests you?" he asixd. "Provided you couldA scare England by these pronouncements In to bringing pressure on Japan to keep out of Siberia, wouldn't yea promptly forget about the integrity of Rus sian in Europe" And after I hal told him I didn't know, be said ab ruptly. "Tour policy has no eon thfutty. We never can bank on it. What view of the integrity of Russia can wa expect from the white houss after next Mareh? Will you get js to commit ourselves against Kngland and then leave us in the lurch " Not In Russia only, but in the other smaller Slav nations. Csecho- Slova kia and Jugo-Slavla and Bulgaria. !s the feeling growing that Britain has set out to choke the Slav races to death and take their heritage for her self. This explains why no help against the bolsheviks can be ob tained from any of these countries. A prominent Jugo-Slav recently ex pressed his opinion as follows: Strangling the Slavs. The Russian nation collapsed, but not before It had saved Britain and France and these then proceeded to dismember Russia and imprison the Slavs even more effectively than be fore the war. A glance at the map will show how 1SO.400.000 Slaves have Ven artificially excluded from free access to the world at large.
