...year Germany intimated to France that she was willing in the interests of peace to guarantee the status quo of the frontier dividing Germany from France and Belgium, but specifically left for peaceful negotiations all questions relative to the boundary which separates the Reich from Poland and Czecho-Slovakia.

Arbitration Treaties. The German Government, confessing "considerable doubts," asked for "further elucidation" concerning the arbitral treaties which she was asked to sign with Belgium, Poland and Czecho-Slovakia.

...sure, the Hussite celebrations were only part of the causes of Catholic hostility. In Catholic eyes the Czecho-slovak State was formed by a group of heretics and, as a matter of fact, the leaders of the nation are today mainly Protestant or "liberal freethinkers."
