By H. M. Ross

WITH THE eyes of the Western
world on the effect of the Spanish
Civil War to the peace of. Europe, we
are forgetting the less sensational
but equally vital problems of the
maintenance of peace in Central and
Eastern Europe. Most troubled of the
nations in Central Europe is little
Czechoslovakia. Surrounded almost
entirely by nations unfriendly to-
wards her, she is bravely making a
stand against the implied threats to
her freedom. Along the Prague’s
main thoroughfares young men in
khaki, sweating under the weight of
heavy packs, on their way to home
barracks from the annual maneuvers,
straighten their packs, lift their
chins and gaze steadily ahead. Along
the length of the battalion the hob—
nails of their boots strike the cobble-
stones with a rhythmic ring. Though
weary from a strenuous period of
marching and trench digging, they
march steadily through the lines of
spectators.

THE CITIZENS of Prague watch
this parade of young troops with
anxious eyes. Would these young sol—
diers be able to meet an enemy on
equal terms? That cnemy—-Hitler’s
provocative speeches and the expan—
sionist program of the Third Reich
leave no doubt about iHan be only
one nation, Nazi Germany. As Ber—
lin’s military machine grows pro«
greasively more powerful and Ger-
man agitation operates more boldly
in the Teutonic districts of Bohemia,
the Czechs face the threat inherent
in the Third Reich’s push to the East.
