CLOSE INTEREST IN LONDON
Aims Of Slovaks Not Understood (British Official Wireless.) (Received March 12, 6.30 p.m.) RUGBY, March 11. The situation in Czechoslovakia is being closely watched in London. The “Daily Telegraph” says that for the onlooker it is not easy to understand what Slovakia can possibly hope to gain by separatism. Whatever grievances she may have had under the pre-Mu'nich regime must have been removed, it would have been thought, by the grant of complete autonomy which she now enjoys. As a small country with 2,000,000 inhabitants she can have no prospect of standing alone. Complete independence would expose her to exploitation, if not absorption, by one or Other of her powerful neighbours from whom she could expect none of the benevolence meted out to her by her Czech elder brother. The Czechs, says the paper, have given unmistakable proof of their determination to keep order in the house left them by Munich.
