Power Politics In The Baltic, Harold E. Barto, Reginald M. Shaw Jan 1940

Power Politics In The Baltic, Harold E. Barto, Reginald M. Shaw

All Faculty Scholarship for the College of Education and Professional Studies

A year ago the attention of the world was focused upon central Europe. Then for a brief moment Poland flashed, and today the Baltic Sea region is in the spotlight. After a lapse of some two centuries, this sudden re-appearance of the Baltic to assume a major role in European affairs calls for comment. Touching upon these Baltic waters are six small democracies (Denmark, Sweden, Finland, Esthonia, Liatvia, Lithuania) and two powerful totalitarian states ( Germany and Russia.) In view of recent and current developments, two questions arise : ( 1) will one or both of the totalitarian states control …

Backgrounds Of German-Polish Relations, Harold E. Barto Nov 1939

Backgrounds Of German-Polish Relations, Harold E. Barto

All Faculty Scholarship for the College of Education and Professional Studies

Poland's leading role in Europe's most recent crisis which has developed into the Second World War has given new emphasis to her position in world affairs. Due perhaps to the varied course of events that have attended Polish destinies for her 1000 years of history, press dispatches relative to her past are sometimes wholly inadequate and not infrequently confusing. It is with the hope of giving the average reader a fuller background of Polish affairs that this article has been written. The writer has endeavored to deal with the events briefly and as objectively as is humanly possible.

Crossed Signals Off The Chesapeake, Roy M. Newton Apr 1939

Crossed Signals Off The Chesapeake, Roy M. Newton

Honors Theses

It was in the fall of 1781, over four years after the Declaration of Independence, that General Cornwallis surrendered his force at Yorktown, and American independence was realized. Yorktown is generally supposed to have been the decisive battle of the American Revolution, but it was the naval engagement off the Virginia Capes six weeks earlier, when the British fleet through a confusion over tactical signals, was driven away from the Chesapeake Bay, that actually decided the fate of the British forces in America. Had Adin.iral Graves taken advantage of his superior position when he encountered the Comte de Grasse, who …
