BRAND UNABLE
TO BE PRESENT
FOR SOME DAYS
News from Silesia Is to the
Effect That While the
Poles Seem to Have
Ceased Their Advance
They Have Not Retreat
ed from Occupied Area

London, May l6.--There may be a
full meeting of the supreme allied
council for the purpose of discussing
the situation which has arisen in Sile-
sa as result of the Polish revolt
there. Decision on this point has not
as vet been reached, and in some quar-
ters it is said that meeting of Prime
Minister Lloyd George of Great Britain
and Premier BRAND of France is fa-
vored at the present time, rather than
a meeting of the council.
Dispatches from Paris Indicate that
NJ. BRAND intends to lay the situation
before the chamber of deputies when
ii meets on Thursday following a recess
of fortnight. There has been an ex
change of views between the British
and French governments. Suggestions
that meeting be held have been met
with assertions in Paris that it would
be impossible for the French premier
to discuss personally the Silesia affair
with Mr.. Lloyd George until after
Thursday
Advices received here over the week
end appeared to Indicate a cessation
of fighting in upper Silesia, but there
was nothing to show that the Poles
were withdrawing from regions they
occupied during the past two weeks.
Newspaper comment here seemed to be
more moderate, and reflected a dispo-
sition to advise Mr.. Lloyd George and
NJ. BRAND to reach an amicable un-
derstanding relative to the Silesian
problem, although in quarters where
Mr.. Lloyd Georges attitude relative
to Poland is condemned blame is placed
upon him.
