my country can only be realized il
Poland Acquires the territory to which
it is entitled by right. Otherwise, Polish
independence will be only a fiction.
Germany plans a small Poland with no
outlet on the sea, and surrounded en-
tlrely by German possessions and
German sphere of influence. Such
Poland would be merely plaything
for Germany-a slave of Germany.
German agents in all the Allied
countries are working for the estab-
lishment of Poland, made in Ger
many If such pawn were to be
established, it would merely be cheat
ing the public opinion of free ma
tions"
Rightful Polish Territory
Mr.. Dmowsk said that a strong and
really independent Poland must pos
sess the following territory, formerly
part of the ancient Polish kingdom,
and still predominatingly Polish:
German Poland, comprising Upper
Silesia with its rich coal fields; small
part of the Middle Silesa; the prov
ince of Posen. West Prussia with the
Baltic littoral, including the mouth
OF the Vistula and the city of Dan
zig, and the southern Polish belt of
the province of East Prussia.
= Austrian Poland; comprising all of
Galicia. the Polish, or eastern half.
of Austrian Silesia now known as
the Principality of Teschen.
Russian Poland, virtually along the
territorial lines of the Kingdom of
Poland as established by the Con-
gress of Vienna
The eastern frontier, Mr.. Dmowski
said, must be drawn in full under
standing with Russia in way to
leavd no feelings of hostility, but
rather with the view of laying the
foundation of friendship between the
two Slav nations.
Mr.. Dmowski said that in German
Poland, the population was about g.
100000, of whom more than 5000 900
are Poles by language, feelings and
ideas. The Poles, he said, supported
the claims of the Czecho-Slavs to the
western half of Austrian Silesia
Difficult Task
convincing the public in Western
Europe as we'll as in this country of
Poland's just claims is rather difficult"
MIR. Dmowski declared, because the
knowledge of Poland abroad comes
principally from German and Russian
sources, and both governments have
done their best of late years to distort
the truth. Germany's statesmen do
not conceal the fact that the Polish
question is the most important for Ger
many.
Eve have to face the fact That Rus
sla has collapsed, and that there are
many small nationalites in Eastern
and Central Europe, and that among
these little nations Poland is the onlv
one that can be made strong enough
to maintain peace"
Mr.. Dmowski said the Allied states
men would have to work out a lust
solution of the Lithuanian question,
he favors a nominal union of Lithu-
ania with Poland, giving the Lithua-
mans the fullest freedom in develop
ing their natlonalistic aims. He feared
that wholly independent Lithuania
would be used by the Germans as a
nest for intrigue.

Germany Far From
Starving, Swedish
Journalist Says
Food Scarce in Berlin, Still
Enough for Existence

STOCKHOLM, Aug 24.-Germany is
still far from starvation or from the
limit of its endurance so far as the
civilian population is concerned. This
is the substance of a report made
to The Associated Press by Swedish
Journalist who has just returned from
an extended stay in Germany and at
Marienbad, Bohemia. He is an intelli-
gent observer and corroborated reports
from other travellers in the last month
In North Germany, particularly IN
Berlin, there is a marked scarcity of
foodstuffs. Nevertheless there is enough
for existence, and the restaurants of
the better class still serve ample por
tions of meat without meat card. The
farmers generally still have plenty,
even in North Germany.
Conditions improve, the Swedish
Journalist says, as one goes southwark.
Some five thousand patrons at Marien
bad hotels were served with unlimited
quantities of white bread, butter, milk
and cream. Hungarians, who made up
a majority of the patrons, brought such
a variety of foodstuffs with them that
they displayed IAN almost ostentatious
luxury"

Sets Forth Nation S Aims
Roman Dmowsk President of the National Committee Or
ganlzng Government Armies and Sentiment Says World
reace Demands Reconstructed Independent Country

Inc complete restoration of Poland,
with the reestablishment Of it's ancient
frontiers and the political union of
9o,000,0o0 to 100000 Poles who have
been struggling for independence
under German, Austrian and Russian
rule, is the dream the Polish national
'st leaders are hoping to realize as a
result of the great world war
Roman Dmowski, president of the
Polish National Committee, with head
quarters in Paris and branches in the
United States, England and Italy, has
arr'yed in New York City on his way
to Detroit, where he will lay before
carnations of the United States the
aims of the Polish National Commit
tee. The convention meets Tomorrow
At the Plaza Hotel, where the Polish
National Committee has it's New York
headquarters, Mr.. Dmowski yesterday
outlined the principal aims of the or
ganlzation which he heads. He gave
President Wilson full credit for having
taken the initiative, in his speech be-
tore Congress in June, 1917, toward
the recognition of the Polish nation.
u.
Forming Polish Government
The result is, Mr.. Dmowski said, that
the Polish National Committee is now
building a government, although it. is
building on foreign soil. There is no
is Polish army flying the Polish flag.
The White Eagle of Poland is officially
lighting the Black Eagle of Prussia.
Mr.. Dmowski, spare man Of about
nifty, with blue eyes, deep coat of tan
and the high cheekbones of the Slav,
has been fighting for his country since
boyhood. Before the war he was the
publisher of two dailies in Warsaw and
a member from that city in the Russian,
Duma. His fortune has been contis-
Gated and his villa is now the home of
German officers.
The principal immediate aims of the
committee which he heads, Mr. Dmow-
ski said, We're as follows:
/. To organize all Pores wherever
they may be reached to work for the
restoration of the country IN coIlabora-
tion with the policy of the Allies.
9. To organize Polish armies.
8. To organize consular protection
for Poland.
a. To cultivate the goodwill of the
Allied governments and their peoples
toward the territorial programme Of
Poland.
The Polish National Committee's
branch in the United States has it's
headquarters in Chicago and is headed
by 1gnace Paderewski, the famous
pianist. 1t has the backing of about
3 100000 American Poles.
Organizing Two More Armies
Mr.. Dmowski said his countrymen
were already organizing an army in
Siberia ard another on the Murman
coast.
"In connection with our territorial
aims" Mr.. Dmowski said, 81 want to
lay special stress on two points. While

justice sympathizes with Poland's de-
sire for independence, it must be re-

American Troops
Warmly Greeted in
Vladiuostok Parade
(By The Associated Press)

VLADIVOSTOK, Aug. 19.-The de-
ferred parade of the American troops
took place to-day under fine weather
conditions. The Americans created a
favorable impression on the other AL
he'd troops. who warmly greeted them.
There was distinct atmosphere of
passive hostility on the part of a ma
Jorlty of the native population, owing
to the predominance of the Bolshevik
element, but there was no open demon
stration.
In the vicinity of the Czecho- -Slovak
headquarters, where friendly Russians
had congregated, there were repeated
outbursts of cheering, and the women
threw flowers and waved American
flags. All the Allies were represented
in the reviewing stand by military Of
hcers and naval guards.
The Japanese general, KikuZo Otani,
commander of the Entente Allied
forces in Siberia, to-day took charge of
his command. This fact was announced
to-day at a general council Of the AL
lied commanders. The spirit of fullest
cooperation was manifested by the
council. the ofncerS assuring General
Otani that they were proud to serve
under him.
The various elements will retain
their identity as separate units con-
cerning matters Of administration and
supply, but are subject to orders from
the generalissimo regarding strategic
and military operations. A joint AL
lied purchasing board has been estab-
lished for buying necessities in the
local market.
