Expressing complete satisfaction with
the American note. the minister decIar-

Poland with IA new spirit Of hope" He
added that his country was sorely in
need Of war materials IF all kinds and
that II would probably first seek credits
from the United States with which to
purchase them.

Three Purposes
Diplomats generally regarded the doc

First-The extension of moral
support to the Polish government
and people
Seoond-An appeal to the masses
in Russia to throw off the bolshe-
vik yoke and establish constitution

Third.-The influencing of other
nations to refrain from recognition

that had been in progress for several
weeks between officials Of the state de-

Early in the course of the negotla

it known that under no circumstances
would it be ready to enter into any
agreement to 60 70 war with soviet
Russia.
Italy Turns TO America.
Having thus by its own act excluded
itself from participation in the Hythe
conference, thc Italian government was
said TO have naturally turned towards |
America as the one great power asso-

Washington, Aug. 11.-(By the As

here it is expected that the American

the attitude of many governments which

gard with satisfaction declaration by
the allied and associated powers that
the territorial integrity and true bound
aries of Russia shall be respected: that
such declaration pre- supposed the
