The New Frontiers of Europe by Frank H Smonds
The article discusses postwar frontiers in Europe, notably Poland, Alsace Lorraine, and the Rhine region. It argues for a strong Poland as a barrier to German expansion and Bolshevik influence, outlining contentious border decisions and the imagined map of a Versailles peace. It notes Polish partition history, threats from Bolsheviks and Ukrainians, and the need for a Polish outlet to the sea via Danzig and the Baltic. It emphasizes the league of nations guarantee and the goal of future stability.
