Appeal Made to League

Warsaw, Feb. 19.-CP)-Fresh at.
tacks by the Lithuanians on the Pol
ish forces in the neutral zone allotted
to Poland are reported here today.
II is also said that the class Of 19ee
has been modified in Lithuania.
Dispatches last night from both
Polish and Lithuanian sources re.
ported collisions between forces of
the two countries. The Lithuanian le.
CATION in Paris made public a dis.
patch from kovno asserting that Po.
lish forces had invaded Lithuania,
after occupying the neutral zone near
OraDy and attacked the Lithuanian n
troops with heavy casualties. The dis.
patch added that the Lithuanian gov.
ernment had reported the facts to
the league of nations, requesting that
steps be taken TO prevent an exten.
sion OF the conflict.
Action on Both Sides.
Paris, Feb. Meager details
between Poland and Lithuania. re.
ceived in official circles in Paris. in.
dicate there has been action on both
sides. Dispatches from Polish sources
to the foreign office say that the
Poles completed the occupation OF
that part of the zone given them by
the council OF the league of nations
the Lithuanians began firing with
artillery upon the points occupied.
Carry Out Threat.
At the Lithuanian legation here It
was declared the Poles had not only
occupied their own part OF the neu
trail zone but had crowded over into
the part assigned to the Lithuanians
by the league. II also was advocated
that the Polish frontier guards and
officials needed for the adr-inlstra.
tion Of the region were accompanied
by troops of all arms contrary to
the decision of the league council.
The impression voiced in French
official circles is that the Lithuan.
ians are carrying out the threat they
made in the league council TO resist
the occupation OF any part Of the
zone by the Poles. Lithuania has an
army OF 10000 men.
