Colonel Reckthe Polish WHEN , Foreign Secretary , disciple and , to some extent , - heir of Marshal Pilsudskilooks out the , upon _rlate of Pdastern and the raw Europe morrow of Munich , he must feel rather uncomfortable . _Otherwise he would surelnot have made such y haste to form a new contract with Soviet Russia , from whom , at one moment in the crisis a few weeks ago , Poland had received a virtual ultimatum . It was no doubt very gratifying to acquire Teschen , about which there was a long story . It must have given a keen sense of power to rebu _ff the Ambassadors of Great Britain and France when they
came to plead for the remnants of Czechoslovakia . But after the feast comes the bill . The bill is presented by the German landlord , who has newly acquired the inn and adjacent property ; it may be quite a heavy bill . The agitations which are now being fomented in the Polish Ukraine show that there are many large items in the account : these be mentioned Danamong may zig and the Polish Corridor . Such is the bill that may be presented in the near future by Nazi Germany to Colonel Beck . But perhaps the Russian Soviet Union will come to his aid and help him not to pay it ! But then again , perhaps not !
Tho Western democracies , France and Great Britain , have always had keen sentiment for Polish a very national independence . This sentiment _, has not been expressed in words alone . Napoleon made a memorable effort to reintregate Poland . It was not till 1919 that the triumph of French and British bayonets made possible the undoing of the historic crime perpetrated by three despotisms of Prussia , Austria and Russia more than a century and a half . ago

Bv WINSTON S . I have always hailed the liberation of Poland from its tripartite bondage as one of the most inspiring conof the World War . sequences The unsleeping , quenchless conception of national unity possessed by the _Polish union is one of the wonders of history , and that it should have reached fruition as a result of French and British sacrifices and victories was a grand even ... No student of the past could but feel pain to see the newlreconstituted Poland in these y lastfateful months act with com- ; lete indifference both to the Pop wers who liberated her and to the can ** j ot law and _freedom in Europe .
It was disappointing to those who had battered the gates of a Bastille , to find that the captive seemed to have forgotten nothing and learned nothing in his long incarceration . But after all , disillusion is too often the fruit of experience . This Christmas All Eastern Europe spends this Christmas in deep fear . Against whom will the next blow be directed ? Upon what countries , now independent and at will the consepeace , quent es of Munich fall ? There is extreme tension in Rou
manian England has lately received the visit of King Carol Tbe impression which be created in London was highly favourable ; the British public had the feeling _th-d ; here was . i real man , a highly capable prince , facing extraordinary difficulties with resource and resolve . But Roumania , with her oil and corn , with a host of recently acquired minorities in her midst , and with Hungary with a deep-seated grievance at her doorsseems to be another very , country in danger at this unhappy time .
Beyond the two threatened countries , Poland and Roumania , lies the great mass of Russiaand further to , the south the powerful military Republic of Turkey . Russia and Turkey , for centuries foes , have become good neighbours . Together they BRITISH SERVICE NOTES .

form a counter-poise for Eur < ope , toward Great Britain . There is * • not which might well be of invaluable the slightest divergence of interest service . Russia is a mystery amd a between the leading Mediterranean riddlewhich none read . The naval Power and these two guard- , may part Russia has played in the Far ians of the Aegean . It appears to East deserves the respect both of _, be an object of high consequence to
Great Britain and the United States . What Russia can do or will do in in the eventor in the advent Europe of her soil being invaded , no man can tell . He would indeed be foolish to write it down a _> negligible . But Turkey is another stabilising force , much smaller , but nnore definite in its character . The death of Mustapha Kemal , the saviour of Turkey in the war , and the guide and rebuilder of the Turkish nation since the war , was a loss nnost grievous and untimely both to the Ottoman people and to Europe . The tears which men and women ofall ; classes shed his bier were a upon fitting tribute to the life work of a man at once the hero , the champion and the father of modern Turkey . Turkey Disentangled
During his long dictatorship a policy of admirable restraint and good will created , for the first time in history , most friendly relations with Greece . The terrible injuiries which the two races wrought each other after the great war , had tbeen effaced by time and good sense . The disentangling of the populations was a feat of active statesmanship which has no parallel . The prediction that Turkey would not be able to -get on without the presence -of a certain number of Greeks as docttors , chemistsbankerslenders , , money , and handy men in the * ir villages , has been happily falsified . Turkish capacity has been found equal to the task , of presenting a complete doimes - tic . economy
How admirable also has been the achievement of the Greeks , who have managed to find room and subsistence in their by no means rich and fertile country for nearly two million newcomers repatriated from Turkish lands . Both Greece and Turkey are animated by the friendliest sentiments

Great Britain to foster and encourage the growth of prosperity , credit and tradeboth in Turkeand y , Greece . The loan of sixteen million , which Mr . Chamberlain so prudently made earlier in the year , has been a substantial advantage to Turkey , and has been warmly acknowledged by the Turkish Government . It is to be hoped that means will be found to foster the Greek trade and otherwise to assist the le peop with whom British connections have been so long and so agreeable , and whose Throne there now sits an upon able constitutional King , long resident in England . GreeceTurkey and Roumania to- , gether can exert a highly beneficial influence in Bulgaria . A step forward was made in Balkan politics when at the Salonica Conference Bulgaria definitely rejoined her sister State in the Balkan peninsula .
All . these countries will be safe and prosperous if they act together _antf weld themselves into a strong block of peaceful but weli-armed States . If they let themselves be divided and set one against another by German ambitions , or if they allow themselves to bo infected by Nazi doctrines , _Pandoras box of evils will once again have been pried open , and there is hardllimit to the y any miseries , which lie before them . It well be that the fate of may Czechoslovakiawhile it , exposes the whole of Eastern and Southern to further unmeasured danEurope will at the same time raise gers , new forces of self-preservation in all the countries affected . No process could be more welcome to the Western democracies or more likely to engage their interests and good will .

MILLIONS TO BE SPENT ON BRITISH A . R . P .
LONDON , Thursday ( R ) . — Sir John Anderson , in the course of his statement yesterday in the House of Commons , on Air Raid Precautions , with particular reference to protection against high explosive amd incendiary bombs , declared thatt no plan would be satisfactory which provided protection only for a . proportion of those likely to be exposed to substantial risks . The aim must be to provide iin the vulnerable areas well-distributed shelters which would be easily accessible after an air raid wairning . As far as possible , the people must be given protection near their homes and places of employment . They must recognise that n < 0 100 per cent protection against hig ; h explosive , and shelters proof against a direct hit , was practicable as part of a short-term plan .
Apart from the difficulties , Sir John Anderson did not believe that we were prepared to adapt ouir civilisation so as to compel a large proportion of people to live and maintain their productive capacity in a troglodyte existence deep underground . What they could and must p : rovide was not bomb-proof shelters ,, but adequate protection against splinters and the blast and fall of debris . No public authority could make itself
responsible for providing this protection at the public expense for everyone . Their responsibility was to provide protection for ali who could not fairly be expected to proviide it for themselvesThe Government would give the technical advice to those necessary who could afford to provide it for themselves . The people must be reasonably protected while at work , and the responsibility for this rested primarily on the employer . Com inn _Legislation
Immediately after Chriistmas , legislation would be introduced imposing certain obligations in this respect on industry and trade . They must also give protection to those caught in the street during ; a raid .
Communal shelters would be provided , either trenches or other forms , which would be carefullsited . Basements y must be strengthened , and standardised steel fittings to strengthen basements would be made available . Steel sheets would be fitted in - peace time with the least possible disturbance to the -time user . A would peacesurvey bo carried out to see how this method could most profitably be applied . Structural support would be provided to blocks of flats or tenements . Steel Shelters Respecting non-basement houses , a special type of steel shelter had been evolved in sections which was to easy put together , placed in * the house and sunk about two feet underground . The Government would proceed immediately to place orders for a very large quantity of steel material . Private shelter for 3 , 000 , 000 people would be prepared and material accumulated for strengthening private basements .
The sum of £ 20 , 000 , 000 would be for this material and this necessary would be borne entirely by the Exchequer . The production of these large lies would lead at once to an insupp creased employment in the steel industry . Sir John Anderson indicated that the Exchequer contribution towards the cost of public shelters would amount to several million pounds . Altogether the protective measures would be designed for nearly 20 . 000 , 000 persons . Replying to supplementary questions , Sir John Anderson said that the figure of 20 , 000 , 000 people for whom _. under these special provisions , protection would be provided , did not necessarily represent the proportion of the population for whom protection ultimately would be available in one or anway other .
Mr . George Lansbury asked : Do any of these proposals deal with the defence of the people against high explosives ? Sir John Anderson declared that he had made quite clear in his statement that the scheme did not contemplate provi _, sions against what could be regarded as a direct hit by a high explosive bomb .
