WARSAW. Oct. IA, P)-The
cessation of hostilities between the

Friday, when the armistice is expected
to be concluded, will mark the close oi
the most serious warfare following the

when the Poles made their first sweep
eastward to Kiev, which they captured,
followed by their gradual retreat until
the soviet forces had again forced
their way westward and were threat
ening Warsaw. The present negotia-
tions were Initiated about that time,
first at Minsk and then at Riga. and
have resulted in the armistice now an
