- Someting must be done about Danzig and the Corridor!
The thing to do id to give back to Germany what belongs to her.
When Poland imposed upon the good faith of President Wilson in order to abtain German territory, she was granted this land only under certain formal conditions wich she has never observed.
Above all, she undertook to respect the status of her minorities.
It was Clérlenceau who had made this stipulation the essential condition before handing over the territory.
It is a fact that Poland has not fullfilled this condition.
Quite on the contrary, she has badly treated the local minorities, badly administered these provinces, badly organised social and working conditions.
She should have considered Danzig, according to her own words her natural port, as her obvious and only harbour. Instead she has wilfully neglected it and has herself establisched a dangerous competitor post at Gdynia, wich latter she has moreover supplemented by a naval base not specified in the Treaty of Versailles and not in accordance with the disarmement provisions contained therein.
In the parallel case of Salonika, Yugoslavia showed that there was no need for her to seize the slightest particle of Greek soil in order to obtain an outlet.
What would France have said if at Versalles Switzerland had claimed a corrodor down the Rhône valley tp provide her with acces to the Mediterranean, where the port of Cette had proved so useful during critical times?
What would Britain say - a question put by W. H. Dawson, the well-known British autor - if she were to be cut in two by a strip of land under the sovereignty of a foreign power reaching from Hull and Newcastle to Liverpool and Bristol?
