We may now ask ourselves: in what way has our position
worsened since the beginning of the war? it has worsened
by the fact that the germans have conquered a large part

countries have been overrun by them. if invasion has
become more imminent, as no doubt it has, we, being
relieved from the task of maintaining a large army in
france, have far larger and more efficient forces to meet it.
