j. S. NOT OPPOSED
TO POLISH COLONY:
Officials Say Monroe Doctrine
Will Not Interfere II No Land
Granted to Russia.

Russia's gigantic colonization scheme.
whereby a million inhabitants OF Rus
sian Poland may be transplanted to
South America. Is not likely to be op-'
posed by the United States.
II agreements now sought by Russia
with South American republics do not
include actual grants of land to the
Russian government. State Department
officials said, there Is little probability
Of an issue being raised.
Department officials admitted they
have been watching the progress Of the
Russian negotiations for some weeks.
Thus far. they believe. the Russian
commissioners engaged In the enter
could be construed as infringing on the
Monroe Doctrine.
Wholesale removal 6f the Poles from
their native land in case the plan sue
ceeds, Is not expected by United States
officials before me end Of the war.
In the first place. a good part Of Rus
sian Poland In now occupied by the
Germans. which places a physical OBJ
stacle in the way. In addition. It is not
believed Russia would want to send
any potential soldiers out of the coun-
try during the war.
In discussing the colonization plan In
relation to the Monroe Doctrine. II was
pointed out that there are several hun
dred thousand Germans in Brazil. and
that this government has never raised
the question OF the propriety of their
extra-territoriar rights as German pub
lie schools, which has resulted In many
OF those who were born In Brazil speak
ing only German.
