Abstract

Time Against Finland

Stowe, Leland | February 17, 1940 issue

add to cart   close window

Considering the magnificent victories that the Finnish troops have won during six weeks of war, that may sound queer that before the end of March everything may be over. It is neither queer nor false. This war can be lost before the snows begin to thin. But it won't be lost by the Finns alone, any more than the Spanish war was just a defeat for Spaniards. If it is lost it will be lost by all democracies that want Finland to be saved yet fail to ship airplanes, anti-aircraft guns, and munitions here quickly enough to prevent disaster. Relief for evacués is one of the last things Finland needs.
