Dr. Delbrück some years ago, in the Preussische Jahrbücher, pointed out strongly the impolicy of systematically abalienating the one Slav race, a race of soldiers, whose support will be most valuable when the long-expected struggle comes about between Germans and Russians. Why, so he asks, deliberately drive the Poles into the arms of Russia?
