Indeed, the Japanese invasion of Chim at Krst aroused profound misgivings in Germany, just as Ger- many's growing menace and the Pact of Non-Aggression with Kusain have apparently swung italy into neutrality and Japan into hostility.
That Germany intended to throw down the gauntlet regarding Danzig and the Polish Corridor, with or without the Russian guarantee of non-interference, 'now seems obrions. Hitler's scheme of expansion allow- el for no undue delay.

The defeat of Poland which (despite resistance which will un-' doubtedly continue until Germany and Russia can garrison the entira country) must be regarded as prae- tleally accomplished, has not been dishonourable to the conquered forces led by Marshal Smigly-Rydz. In many respects there is a simi Inrity to the resistance led by King Albert of the Belginns to Gorman nggression in 1914-a resistance doomed. from the beginning.
