mouth Of the Gulf Of Finland and
perhaps will ask for the strategic
Aaland Islands, lying near the Swed-
ish coast.
Germany gave no sign Of mterced-
ing in behalf of the Firms and there
appeared to be little more than sym
pathy and concern on the part OF
the Scandinavian states, which have
seen the Soviets swiftly take over
domination of the Baltic Sea.
These smaller neutral nations Of
northern Europe have been chiefly
concerned so far about loss OF their
trade as a result OF the war. Their
commercial exchanges with both
Great Britain and Germany have
been drastically cut as result of the
blockades and they will meet at
Brussels, probably this week, to dis
Gus means to be taken. There were
some indications that they might be
given British convoy protection.
Lithuania VS.. Russia
Kaunas, (Kovno), Lithuania, Oct.
e(UP)-Russia has agreed to re
store to Lithuania all parts Of the
wilma district which are inhabited
by Lithuanians, a well as the local
districts of Swenziany and Traki
and the city of Wilma, it was reported
today in usually reliable quarters.
Russia in return required that Lith-
uania pledge rights of self-deter-
mination to minorities which re-
manned in the coded area, it was
said.
The same informants aid that, in
negotiations now going on at Mos
COW, Russia asked air bases at Will
kowiski, Kosedary and Polangen.
Wilkowiski is Is miles from the
East Prussian frontier. Kosedary is
so miles from East Prussia. Polangen
is Is miles from Memel, which Ger
many seized from Lithuania.
Advices from Moscow said that af-
ter a two hour formal conference
last night, the Lithuanian negotia-
tors had personal discussion with
Josef Stain as the result OF which
their feeling today was one of OPP
timiSm.
Austrian Legion
Paris, Oct. 9.-(UP)-Archduke OF
to fHapsburg, pretender to the
thrones of Austria and Hungary, has
asked the British and French gov
ernments to permit him to form an
Austrian legion to fight the Germans
it was reported today.
Otto wants to form at least one divi-
sion of Austrian exiles, including roy
alist, to fight alongside the French
and British armies, 1t was said, as is
planned in the case of Czech and
Polish refugees.
Otto sent his brother, "a year-old
Archduke Robert, to London to nego-
tiate with the British government, it
was said.
In return for the services of an
Austrian Legion, it was said, Otto
would ask Britain and France to in
clude among their war aims the res
toration of Austria as an independ-
ent state.
German Army Advances
Berlin, Oct. 9.-(UP)-The Ger
man army in Poland continues to
advance toward the boundary with
Russia, the high command an
nounced today.
In the west, communique said
there was local reconnaissance anc
patrol action and weak artillery
fire on both sides.
There was only a little recon
naissance flying, it was said.

The non-recognition policy is bas-
ed on the international principle
that seizure Of territory does not
extinguish sovereignty but consti-
.tutes only military occupation until
a treaty Of peace has been ratified
confirming exchanges or grants Oh
territory.
Secretary of State Cordell Hull
said last week that Poland was the
victim Of force used as an instru-
ment Of policy" and that the Unit
ed States was maintaining diplo-
matte relations with the Polish gov
eminent formed In Paris.
President In Touch
Mr.. Roosevelt also kept in touch
with the navy department and coast
guard for late reports from naval
vessels and the coast guard cutter
accompanying the American refugee
ship, Iroquois, to New York harbor,
The vessel, which Grand Admiral
Erich Raeder of the German fleet
warned would be sunk when 1t en-
tiers American waters, sailed from
Cobb, Ireland, on Oct. 2 with 584
passengers and a crew Of 2l2
aboard. It Is due in New YORK
Wednesday.
The patrol boats were ordered &c
proceed to the IroQuois assistance
when Raeder informed the Amer.
lean naval attache in Berlin that
he had reason to believe that thu
vessel would meet the same fate a
the British Liner Athena, which
was torpedoed and sunk off the He
brides with a loss of more than loo
lives, including % Americans.
Readers warning implied that thu
British sank the Athena to arouse
American sentiment against Ger.
many and would do the same with
the Iroquois. The British admiralty
retorted that the accusation was 9
