Differences Are Reported
In Moscow Staff Talks
BY the Associated Press.


MOSCOW, Aug. 19-Various diff
ferences have arisen in British
French-Soviet military staff talks,
it was disclosed today.
The disclosure came about circui-
tously in Moscow morning papers in
the form of communique by Tass
tSoviet official news agency.
This denied Polish reports that
differences had arisen over an al
legged Soviet demand for British
French military assistance in case
of war in the Far East.
These Polish reports. the COM
munique said. were complete fan
tastes from beginning to end"
1t then added, "the real disaccord-
ances actually existing concern a
quiet different question having no
relation whatever to the Far East"
Exactly where the trouble lies the
communique did not explain.
On the basis of the fact that vari-
GUS differences arose during the
previous diplomatic negotiations in
connection with indirect aggres-
sion" in the Baltic states, some OBJ
servers are inclined to believe a
snag in the military talks has arisen
over the question of Soviet military
Intervention in Finland, Esthonia
or Latvia in event of such indirect
aggression"

CASTEL GANDOLFE, Italy. Aug.
19.-Postmaster General James A.
Farley, after private audience with
Pope Plus XII, said today the Pom
tiff was extremely anxious that
peace reign throughout the world
and was doing everything possible
toward that objective.
The Postmaster General. here on
a European tour, had a 15-minute
talk with His Holiness, discussing
world and American affairs. The
Pope then also received Mr.. Far
ley's daughters and E. L. Roddan of
Washington.
Mr.. Farley said that while he rec
ognized the tremendous burden on
the Pope he was convinced that his
extensive travels. and especially his
visits to the United States and South
America, make him an important
figure at this time.
The Holy Father certainly is in
a position" he continued, Ito make
as great contribution toward peace
as anyone possibly can.
Il told the Pope Mr.. Farley said.
that everyone in the United States,
regardless of religion. was extremely
pleased at his election, since he had
made such great impression dur
ing his visit in 1886.
Confident of Pope's Strength.
The Pope sent his best wishes to
all he had met during his visit in
the United States. and especially to
President Roosevelt"
Mr.. Farley said the Pope appre-
ciated the task to be done during
this troublesome period in world af-
fairs, but that his health was good
and he was confident the Pope
would measure up to the demands
upon his strength.
The Farley party will leave to-
morrow to spend a week in Paris
before going to England and Ire
land.
Mr.. Farley's daughters. Ann and
Betty, were given rosaries by the
Pope, while Mr.. Farley received
medal
Earlier the Pope had asked that
statesmen of the world try to settle
their quarrels and avert further war.
Those who heard the Pope speak
in Italian quoted him as saying he
had mot abandoned hope that the

BERLIN, Aug. l9.-Inspired state
ments here alleged today the Polish
government had completely lost con-
troll of its affairs-the same ominous
accusation that was hurled a year
ago at Czecho- -Slovakia as the Sude-
ten crisis approached.
Diplomats saw in the increasing
Nazl anlmoSity toward Poland and
apparent swift building of Ger
many's back fences in Southeastern
Europe the possibility the moment
was ripening now for decisive turn
in the Danzig issue.
The Nazi press, continuing its
anti-Polish campaign, rejected any
idea of conference to settle the
quarrel with Poland over the return

ridor.
POntoOn Bridge Hailed.
Berlin newspapers hailed as a
grand achievement of German
technicians in Danzig' the new
pontoon bridge which was to be
anchored across the ViStula River
today. Nazi commentators said the
bridge, to link the free city api
German East Prussia, demonstrates
Danzlgs vivid connection with the
