WASHINGTON. Aug. An

ment by Poland has been received.
An interchange Of views is already

United States and the French and
British governments in an attempt,
officials say. 10 map out a course
OF action promising favorable re-
suits.
With the threatened economic
collapse OF Poland and reactions %
similar gravity. anticipated in states
adjacent TO the new republic, officials
described the situation as approach
ing a point where self interest would
prompt the United States 20 take
action. The view was expressed that
n notification OF the victory over
Germany was contained in the un-
derstanding said To exist between so
Wet Russia and Germany and that
this offered sufficient provocation for
action by the United States. These
officials took the position that as a
power associated with the allies in
the United States maintained a very
evident interest in the preservation
OF the victory. although IL had not
ratified as yet the treaty Of Yer
sailles.
Extend Credit.
Included among the steps which
the United States might find itself
compelled 20 take, officials suggest
ed extension OF credits 20 permit
purchase by Poland OF surplus war
material, declaration of moral
support for Poland and a warning TO
the soviet government not 20 tres

Military aid, II was added, could be
considered only II all else failed.
Military authorities suggested that
the brigade destined for Silesia
and detained IN Germany, II now
, sent 10 Snesia, might steady not only
Poland but Czecho- Slovakia and
Germany. The complete strangula-
ton OF Poland by the cutting OF the
Danzig corridor by the bolshevik ar
my. these officers added. was a grave
cventuality which the presence of
American troops IN that area might
possibly avert.
