Washington. July 20 (by the AS
soc ated Press. POLAND, sorely
beset by the Russian bolshevik
armies, called upon the United
States today for moral support in
her now desperate battle with the
soviet forces.
Through its legation here the
new republic not only asks for an
expression from the state depart
ment, but also from President VIII
son, declaring that such public
statements would go a long way to-
ward strengthening the morale Of
its soldiers and people.
Poland's request was given seri-
Gus consideration at the state de-
partment, and it was expected that
q decision would not be long de-
]ayed. Whatever the ultimate de-
cision, however, there were indica-
tions of sypmathy with Poland. 1t
was recalled that the American
government had steadfastly refused
TO recognize the soviet remime and
that less than two years ago the
state department requested the
allied and neutral nations to join
in declaring the bolsheviki inter
national outlaws.
Arguments that the legation pre-
scented set forth the incongruity of
the United States abandoning the
republic with whose establishment
1t had so much to do. 1t was de-
clared that while the situation OF
the country had been made desper-
ate by enormous weight of the Rus
sian forces, it was not yet too late
avert disaster.
No Armistice Likely.
Hope was expressed at the de-
partment that the bolsheviki would
accept the Polish request for an
armistice but recent reports from
Moscow of the attitude of the So
Wet rulers caused officials to re-
gard the outc\me with much skep-
ticism,
Experts were divided as to just
how much support should be given
to Poland to revive her fighting
forces to the point where they
could withstand the Russian
armies. .-l.
The offers of Great Britain and
France to send troops was regard
ed by few as more than enough.
and in this the Polish legation
agreed. 1t was argued that Po-
land had an additional million and
q half it could put into the field

GAINS
VALUABLE COAL
BEARING LANDS

Especial Correspondence to The Journai.)
Santa Fe. July 23.-An interest
ing case has just been decided rel
alive to state lands, wherein the
state land office is upheld in posi-
ton taken some years ago. Twelve
sections of alleged state lands in
San Juan county were denied by
the United States government to
belong to the state, the reason for
this position being that according
TO the officials of the United States
land office these sections were
coal lands. and therefore not I'M
der the law. belonging to the state,
and not subject to sale or lease.
The United States government pro-
ceeded under this contention to
hold the lands. This action was
taken four years ago. Notice has
just been received by the state
land office that the case is now
dismissed. The decision takes the
ground that the rules in force at
the time action Is taken must hold
and those made afterward are null.
This Is the position taken by the
state office and the lands are now
under the control Of the state land
commissioner. Some of these lands
are held for grazing and leased for
that purpose and some are coal
lands, but this could not be shown
when the case was under consid-
Grafton by the government. These
lands, underlaid with coal. will
now be classed as coal lands and
will be handled as such.
The Alamogordo Lumber COM
pany appeared before the tax COM
mission yesterday. being represents
ed by H. B. Harding. The COM
pany made an appeal from the
county board of commissioners on
timber and land valuations. This
valuation was from 50 to $l2 perl
acre on lands and IS cents per
thousand feet of stumpage. These
lands have been operated at a loss
during the past year on account
of difficulties in transportation and
operation and 1t was asked that |
they be placed at the same valu-
alton as other lands, at SO per
acre. The final determination was !
an assessment Of so cents per
thousand on the timber and the |
lands were placed at $500 perl
acre.
