GOOD POSITION
IS RECAPTURED

Uninterrupted fighting is going on
in the valley of the Bug River in Po-
land from it's source to its confluence
with the Narew river.
The great battle, which has been
marked by appreciate advantages for
the Poles. They have inflicted heavy
losses on the enemy. and won back
important positions.
In Galicia the Poles, without pres
sure from the bolsheyiki, have with
drawn to the line of the Bug.
The forces defending Warsaw are
now grouped as follows: the left wing
resting on the forts of Modlin (Novo
Georgkvak) holds the line of the
lower Narew and Bug; the center,
protected behind by the outer forts
of Warsaw, occupies positions, situat-
ed at distances varying from eighteen
to thirty miles from the capital; the
right wing, commanding the valley of
the upper Bug.
Bot right and left wing IL
is the Poles who have taken the in
itiative in operations.
The bolsheviki forces, which had
crossed the Bug between Hrubieszow
and Wiodawa, have been thrown back
on the right bank. On the left wing,
the Poles, starting from Modlin, have
made successful attack in the direc-
ton of Miawa.
Thanks to this operation, the po-
sitions the Poles occupy in the fork of
the Narew and Bug rivers, which cons
stitute the key defences of Warsaw,
are now better protected from "a flank
attack, threatened by bolshevlki
forces on the northwest.
