25 The “revisionist” program of the Jugoslav Democratic Party, proposed by Marinković, looks to mere decentralization (Bulletin Périodique de la Presse Yougoslave, No. 49, February 16, 1924, pp. 89Google Scholar); more radical is the autonomy program of the Slovene People's Party, sponsored by Abbé Ante Korošeć (Ibid., No. 50, April 5, 1924, p. 8). On the advent of the Davidović cabinet in August, 1924, Petrović, the Minister of the Interior, indicated that proposals looking to the realization of the revisionist program would be undertaken. The overthrow of Davidović prevented the carrying out of this project. Gazette de Prague, August 13, 1924, p. 1.

26 The “Piast” party, led by former premier Vincent Witos, demands a return to scrutin d'arrondissement, without much consideration for the representation of national minorities required by treaty. The reduction of the size of the Sejm, which now has 444 members, and the strengthening of presidential authority are also favored. Central European Observer, January 26, 1924; Bulletin Périodique de la Presse Polonaise, No. 140, February 8, 1924. An “Inquiry on the Constitution of March 17, 1921,” published by a group of experts, also favors the strengthening of presidential authority over both the Senate and the Sejm. Ibid., No. 142, April 17, 1924.

28 Czechoslovakia had been occupied with the drafting of a constitution for Sub-Carpathian Ruthenia, along with minor administrative reforms and the en forcement of a far-reaching educational program. Central European Observer, July 26, 1924, p. 1. In Hungary legislation for minorities rested until 1924 on various decrees, principally that of June 23, 1923, now amplified by a law of February 28, 1924. Gazette de Prague, March 1, 1924, p. 2. In Poland a law of July 9, 1924, guaranteed the equality of minority languages (Ukrainian, White Russian and Lithuanian) with Polish, for purposes of communication, judicial process and education. German minorities were to be cared for by a later law. No provision was made for teaching either Russian or Yiddish. Gazette de Prague, July 16, 1924, p. 2. In Rumania a bill for the education of linguistic minorities was laid before parliament at its fall session. Central European Observer, November 1, 1924, p. 1.

Memorandum from the Finnish Legation, December 4, 1924, p. 4. In Hungary a bill to further the enforcement of Law No. XLV of 1921 was passed at the beginning of 1924. The full powers bill, however, pledged the revenues from lands acquired by the State under previous laws to the satisfaction of financial claims, while exempting large landowners from taxation. Bulletin Périodique de la Presse Hongroise, No. 78, January 12, 1924; Central European Observer, October 18, 25, 1924. Charges that Baron Koranyi, the minister of finance, impeded the progress of land reform were freely made before his resignation. In Poland, as soon as financial reconstruction was well under way, Premier Grabski decided to apply the agrarian reform laws, theretofore dead letters, in the eastern provinces, in an effort to ameliorate the peasantry's condition and alleviate dissatisfaction.

48 The German presidential election was precipitated by the sudden death of President Ebert on February 28, 1925. The polling of March 29, having failed to elect a candidate, the second elections on April 26 resulted in the choice of Marshal Von Hindenberg as the new president. In Finland the electoral colleges, chosen January 15 and 16, 1925, met on February 15 to select a new chief executive. Their choice fell upon Dr. L. K. Relander, governor of the province of Viborg and a prominent leader in the Agrarian party, who assumed office March 1, 1925.

For a statement of the opposition to this move sponsored by Trotsky and Preobrazhenski at the 13th Communist Congress cf. Central European Observer, June 7, 1924.

69 Typical of Russian emigré activities was the founding at Paris, on December 11, 1924, of the Russian Nationalist Committee backing Grand Duke Nicholas for a restored but “constitutional” monarchy. Cf. New York Times, December 12, 1924, p. 23, c. 3. The efforts of “Czar” (Grand Duke) Cyril to summon a Crown Council in Paris are reviewed in the New York Times of November 14, 1924, citing the Possledny Novosti, Miliukov's Paris paper.

70 The claims of the Staatspartei are reviewed in the Gazette de Prague March 1, 1924, p. 1, citing Oesterreichische Nachrichten of February 11, 1924. The Conservative People's Party was founded October 25, 1924. Cf. Gazelte de Prague, October 30, 1924, p. 1.

71 The Programme of the new party is a mixture of feudalism, clericalism, anti-Semitism, and … the party stands for frustrating the execution of the peace treaties.” Central European Observer, November 1, 1924, p. 1.

72 Cf. the statement of Chancellor Luther to the Reichstag on January 19, 1925, that the Constitution of the German Republic was the foundation upon which his government would rest. “Every violent illegal blow at that constitution,” he added, “will be met as high treason.” Cf. New York Times, January 20, 1925, p. 1, c. 3.

73 Cf. the reply of Minister of the Interior Rakovszky to deputy Ruppert on May 3, 1924, that “in virtue of a law of 1920 Hungary was a monarchy and that by Article 31 of the law of 1923 (Defence of the Realm Act) every act contrary to the idea of royalty and favorable to republican ideas is considered a delict.” Gazette de Prague, June 7, 1924, p. 2.

74 As to Pašić's treatment of and attitude towards Radié, cf. The Near East, Vol. 26, p. 450, October 30, 1924. See also note 79 infra.

75 The subject of concordats does not, properly speaking, come under international relations, and is therefore dealt with as a purely domestic problem. Bavaria signed a concordat with the Vatican on March 29, 1924 Bulletin Périodique de la Presse Allemande, No. 305, April 19, 1924, p. 1. Jugoslavia, under article 12 of the Vidovdan Constitution, which makes the negotiation of religious agreements compulsory for the Government, is planning a Catholic concordat Gazette de Prague, October 1, 1924, p. 2. Poland, because of her peculiar religious situation, has planned an Orthodox concordat (Ibid., May 31, 1924, p. 2) and actually negotiated with the Vatican as well (Ibid., October 1, 1924, p. 1) though the latter's conditions have proved hard to meet. Rumania's negotiations, opposed by the Orthodox clergy on the one hand (Ibid., April 12, 1924) and by the Hungarian Roman Catholic prelates on the other (Central European Observer, June 14, 1924, p. 1), were finally postponed indefinitely (Ibid., August 23, 1924, p. 1).

76 On the work of the Agrarian Party in Czechoslovakia cf. Bulletin Périodique de la Presse Tchecoslovaque, No. 10, June 23, 1924, and the Central European Observer, October 18, 1924, p. 1. On the status of the Party of Small Landowners in Hungary cf. Gazette de Prague, October 30, 1924, p. 2. In Jugoslavia the Zemlyoradnici are a weak third party but work toward similar ends The Near East, Vol. 26, p. 527, November 20, 1924. Regarding the Union of Agriculturists in Latvia cf. Memorandum 9529 from the Latvian Consulate, December 10, 1924. The Agrarians in Bulgaria have been hopelessly disorganized and persecuted since the death of Stamboulisky. The Near East, Vol. XXVI, p. 553. November, 27, 1924.

77 Cf. Bulletin Périodique de la Presse Tchecoslovaque, No. 11, September 23, 1924, on the conflict in Czechoslovakia, which is typical.

78 Cf. Ibid., No. 10, June 23, 1924, citing Venkov, May 17, 1924.

79 This is true only of “the more rabid followers of the late Stamboulisky,” (Memorandum from the Bulgarian Legation, December 6, 1924, p. 2) now largely emigres in Jugoslavia.

80 The visit of the Croatian Peasant Party leader, Radic, to Moscow, and his affiliation with the Agrarian International there (Gazette de Prague, June 14, 18, 1924) was by no means acceptable to all the rank and file of his following (The Near East, Vol. XXVI, p. 85, July 24, 1924) and elicited a scathing condemnation from Pasic. Cf. Central European Observer, August 23, 1924.

81 The Rumanian Peasant Party seems to have come under Muscovite influence and to have preached the class struggle in much the same way as do the Russian communists. The fusion with the National Party of Transylvania seems to indicate a return to ordinary “constitutional” tactics. Cf. Gazette de Prague June 18, 1924, p. 1.

82 Esthonia alone seems to have been clement to communism, the government believing it unwise to repress agitation and that free discussion and untrammelled public opinion could best handle the situation Current History, Vol. XX, p. 616. The futility of this means of action would appear obvious from the revolts of 1924. Cf. notes 85–88 infra.

83 By a decision of the Bulgarian Court of Cassation on April 3, 1924, the Bulgarian Communist Party and all allied organizations were dissolved in virtue of the law relative to the protection of the State. Cf. Gazette de Prague, April 9, 1924, p. 2. An authoritative statement of the policy of vigilance pursued by the Zankoff Government is given in the Memorandum from the Bulgarian Legation, December 6, 1924, p. 2.

84 The Rumanian Socialist and Communist parties were both dissolved in July. Cf. Gazette de Prague, August 2, 8, 1924.

85 Cf. the statement of Minister Einbund to Wada Maa of Reval, in Central European Observer, March 1, 1924, p. 1.

86 New York Times, November 28, December 2, 1924; Memorandum from the Esthonian Legation, December 18, 1924, pp. 6–7.

87 New York Times, December 2, 4, 9, 1924. “It is believed,” states the Esthonian Memorandum, “that the hopeless and foolish attempt to seize power was made on instructions from the Communist Internationale whose aim is to over throw the democratic institutions in other states ‥‥ and so destroy the world confidence in the stability of the new Baltic States which form a bulwark against the westward movement of Bolshevism. Quick liquidation of the uprising and complete peace over the entire country show the stability of the established democratic régime in Esthonia, as well as the determination of the government and Parliament to safeguard democratic institutions and order in the country.”

93 In 1924 the party was composed of 55.4% workers, 20.3% peasants, and 21% employers and others. The percentage of peasants shows a decrease of 6% from 1923. Cf. Central European Observer, June 28, 1924, p. 1.

111 For example, Albania and Russia mutually recognized each other (The Near East, Vol. XXVI, p. 446, October 30, 1924); Jugoslavia promptly came to terms with the new Greek government on April 30, 1924 (Bulletin Périodique de la Presse Yougoslave, No. 52, June 5, 1924) while Austria (February 27, 1924) and Denmark, following in the wake of the Great Powers, recognized the Soviet Government de jure Bulletin Périodique de la Presse Autrichienne, No. 152, April 3, 1924; Gazette de Prague, June 18, 1924, p. 1.

112 Among such may be mentioned those of Austria with England (May 22), Latvia (August 9), and Rumania (July 25); of Czechoslovakia with Italy (7 treaties, March 18), Lithuania and Norway (May 26) and Turkey (October 11) of Finland with Belgium, Denmark, England, Holland and Latvia (July 23); of Germany with England (December 2) and Spain (July 25); of Hungary with Jugoslavia (June 26), Russia (September 13) and the United States (November 12); of Jugoslavia with Italy (July 14); of Latvia with Holland (July 2) and Norway (August 14); of Poland with Denmark, Esthonia, Japan, Latvia, Russia, Sweden and the United States, as well as Russia's treaties with China, England and Italy. Of course many more treaties were under negotiation, but the fore going, as accomplished facts, are indicative of the trend of diplomatic activity in 1924.

113 Cf. Article 280 of the Treaty of Versailles, Article 232 of the Treaty of Saint Germain, Article 160 of the Treaty of Neuilly, and Article 215 of the Treaty of Trianon.
