CZECHOSLOVAKIA: Czecho-Slovakia

CZECHOSLOVAKIA

Dr. Edouard Benes, Foreign Minister, announced that Poland will be taken into the fold of the Little Entente when he attends the Czecho-Polish conference in Warsaw early in April.

Present members of the Little Entente are Czecho-Slovakia, Rumania, and the Kingdom of the Serbs, Croats, Slovenes. Their power is being exercised in much the same way as was that of the Austro-Hungarian monarchy prior to 1914; they are the dictators of Central Europe. The treaty to be considered at Warsaw will include a military, economic and political understanding, and will unite more than 60,000,000 people.

Dr. Benes has been described as the greatest man in Central Europe. Thirty-nine years old, son of a Czech peasant, he is a man who braved many dangers for his country's sake and is undoubtedly the backbone of the Little Entente.
