Polish Official
Denies Forecast
OF Dn1owski Coup
DR.. ClombinsAi, Here on
Visit, Says News of Plan
10 Overthrow Government
Came From iniriguers

Cabled reports from Poland pub
lished yesterday forecasting a coup
detat in the expectation of converting
a rump parliament and establishing {
government to be led by Roman
Dmowski were branded as false last
night by Dr.. Stanislas Glombinski,
chairman of the Finance and Budget
Committee Of the Polish Parliament,
and chairman of the National Demo-
cratic party in the Polish Parliament,
who is in New York on unofficial gov
eminent business. Dr.. Glombinski was
formerly a member of the Austrian
Parliament for Lemberg, and was also
formerly president of the Foreign At
fairs Committee Of ihc Austrian Par
Lament.
The news. according to this Polish
official, cmanatcd from political in
trlguing sources, and was put into cir
culation in order to discredt Dr..
Dmowski and his party.
"The same news was circulated in
July of last year when Dmowski was
organizing in Poznania a volunteer de-
Tense force for the defense Of that sec
ton of the country ir the event that
the Bolsheviki were successful in their
attack upon Warsaw" DR.. Glombnski
declares. "At that time the Poznania
troops were all taken to the defense of
the capital. The National Democratic
party organized volunteer forces not
only in thai section, but also in War
saw and in Lemberg, the Warsaw di-
vision being placed under the COM
mand of General Halter.
"At thet time tho Cabinet presided
over by Witos was formed, and in that
Cabinet was Dr.. w. Grabswi. a member
of our party, who became Minister of
Finance.
"Another evidence of the falseness of
this news is the misstatement contained
in it regarding Merriam Seyda. whom u
brands as one Of the central figures in
the alleged coup d'etat plan Mr..
Seyda is not, as stated, German yol-
tieian, nor was he ever a member of
the German Reichstag He is a Polish
Patriot and the viceapresident OF the
National Democratic party in Parlia-
ment, and in that capacity he is filling
my place while I am If America. There
is in Poland man named Seyda who
formerly WIGS a member of the Reichs-
tag and who is at present in the Polish
Supreme Court"

Weak Policy Charged to France
1t was pointed out in effect that not
only the interests of European peace
but the interests Of France agreed with
the British stand that it was impos-
sible for the two governments to con.
tinue in discord, as this was furnishing
the greatest encouragement of German
resistance in Upper Selesia. 1t was
stated blhntly that France had shown
lack OF a strong policy in her dealing
With Germany, one day promising her
moral support to the Wirth ministry
and the next threatening it. The note
questioned the French demand for q
commission Of experts to be called in
Paris to study the problem before the
meeting of the Supreme Council. de-
claring that it was not 4 question of
experts, but of common Allied policy.
The note also belittled the French
intention Of sending more troops 20
Upper Silesia, on the ground that it
would create situation in which the
Allies would be forced to continue
sending reinforcements to cope with
a problem which would daily grow
more serious.
Before the arrival of the text here,
which was couched in polite official
yerbiage. it was realized that the
British were asking BRAND 10 back

settlement of the Silesian problem and

British Hold Up Passport
For De Valera's Counsel
Refuse Wise to Frank r. Walsh.
Who, 1t Is Said, Plans 10
Sail ON Saturday

Efforts of Frank P. Walsh, American
counsel for canon de Valera, "ptesi-
dent of the Irish republic" to get the
British Consulate in this city to wise
a passport he had obtained for visit
to England have not met with success,
1t was said yesterday that Mr.. Walsh,
who is in Washington, plans to sail
Saturday for Europe. Whether he
will go to England or to France, how
ever, depends upon the result of nego-
tistions between the British authori-
ties in this country and The Foreign
Office in London.
Five months ago Mr. Walsh asked
the British Consulate to wise his pass
port and was refused. He made q sec
end request and the matter was re-
fo1red to the British government. it
was said at the passport office of the
Consulate yesterday. No decision has
been reached. Further than this the
Consulate said the matter was conf
Dental.
Mr.. Walsh's secretary. at his Office,
zS3 Broadway, would neither confirm
nor deny the report that the former
chairman of the National War Labor
Board was to start for Europe satur-
day. Mr.. Walsh had been iii for the
last several weeks, the secretary said,
but was now able to attend to business
in Washington.
The passport Issued by the State De-
Hartnent has been via6d by the French
Consulate.
Mr. Walsh was quoted yesterday as
saying that at would be the height OF
presumption" for him to act as counsel
tor De Valera abroad and denied that
his purpose in planning to visit Eng
land was political His business woull
take him to France as we'll as to Eng
land, he said.

Copyright. 1921, New York Tribune Inc
LONDON, July 20. - While Premier
Lloyd George was placing the Irish
situation before the Cabinet to-day the
Sim Fein delegates also held a con-
ference in preparation fer to-morrow's
meeting between canon De Valera and
the British Premier. The Sim Teiners
expect to go to Dublin Friday and it
is quite possible General SHUTS will
go there also for conference with
De Valera and Sir James Craig at the
end Of the week.
De Valera end his associates have
been advising their followers not to
become too optimistic, but privately all
the Interested parties are exceedingly
hopeful and there is no expectation
that hostilties will be resumed.
To-morrow's meeting is not likely to
last long, rs Lloyd George probably
will hand the proposals to De Valera,
who will then request an opportunity
to consider them in conference with
his ministers. 1t is possible the Pre-
mier will offer to release from prison
the Sim F6in members Of the Irish
Parliament if De Valera considers the
proposals worth submitting to the Dali
Eireann.
II De Valera reaches an agreement
with Lloyd George he will make big
concessions to placate Ulster, accord
ing to the. statement Of one of his as
sociates. General SHUTS also may take
part in these conversations, though
this statesman is anxious to return to
South Africa as soon as possible, be-
cause he has serious labor matters to
handle there.
The Irish Office reports that general
quiet reigns throughout Ireland and
that troops are being withdrawn from
Belfast. Both sides are respecting the

Open Fer East Discussion
WASHINGTON, July 90 (By The
Associated Prcss) .-Nego with
Japan relating to the scope of the dis
armament conference apparently are
about to enter more active phase
after several days of deliberation.
Both the State Department and the
Japanese Embassy here have about
completed their surveys of the situa-
ton preliminary to the next step in
the negotiations and another confer
ence between Secretary Hughes and
Amba ssador Shidehara is considered
likely to take place within a few days.
r 1t IS understood to be the intention
thus to keep the exchange OF opinions
informal for the present unless mora
formal correspondence is desired by
Toxic.
In the view Of American officials the
negotiations are not likely to be OF
sufficient duration to interfere with
the plan for bringing the conference
together here early in November
The State Department imanifestly
continues confident that the Toxic gov
eminent will agree to the proposed
broad discussion of Fer Eastern cues
tons in the conference as soon as the
American views are fully understood
by Japanese statesmen, although it was
said late to-day that no additional in
formation of an official character had
reached the department from the Jap
anese capital.
The japanese Ambassador here, how
ever, is understood to be fully advised
Of the attitude OF his government. On
the side of the United States, Secre-
taty Hughes has consulted with many
high officials on the subject Of the
pending negotiations, and late to-day
had an extended conference with
