Poland Defies
Russia,
Its Old Borders

LONDON, March 2 fUP).-The
Polish exile government stood
firm today in its demand for res
toration of Poland's prewar bor-
ders despite a Russian declaration
accusing it of Imperialism and vio-
lation of the spirit of the Atlantic
Charter.
The Daily Sketch reported that
Polish Premier Wladislaw Sikor-
ski may meet Premier Stain soon
to discuss their differences.
The dispute centers around the
territory in eastern Poland popu-
lated by Ukrainians and White
Russians which was occupied by
Russia when Germany invaded Po-
land in September, 1889.
Discomfort RECALLED
The dispute seemed to lengthen
the shadow of one of the cardinal
principles of the post-World War !
settlement-the self-determination
of peoples-which figured In much
of the discomfort preceding the
outbreak of the second war.
The 1921 peace treaty between
Russia and Poland established a
border which, according to author
itative estimates, included 4,000,-
600 persons of Russian antece-
dents in Poland.
A Polish spokesman took issue
with a statement distributed by
the official Russian Tass News
Agency which contended that the
occupation united Ukrainian and
White Russian peoples who had
been under Polish rule with their
blood brothers" who were Rus
slams.
ION the contrary" he said. "the
Poles constitute a large part of
the population In the area, which
historically always has belonged
to Poland"
MIXED POPULATION
Poland, like Russia. is made UP
of a number of different races
and Russia. is attempting to claim
for itself what il is denying to
the Poles. the spokesman said.
The two largest cities in the
disputed area, Vino and Lvov,
were described by the spokesman
as purely Polish
The Tass statement said the
Polish governments statement OF
February 25 demanding a restora-
ton OF the pre-war borders rep
resented a continuation of the pol
icy of imperialistic governments
who divide among themselves the
traditional Ukrainian and White
Russian territories.
Leading Soviet circles con-
slider that negation of the right
for Ukrainian and White Rus
sian peoples to unite with their
blood brothers Is evidence of the
existence OF imperialistic tend
encies In the Polish government
and that their references to the
Atlantic Charter can have no
existence OF imperiaIistic tend
foundation whatsoever" Tass
said.

TELLS OF RAID
First word that the raid was
the heaviest yet made on Berlin
came from Capt. Harold Bslfour,
undersecretary of state for air.
who jubilantly told an art exhibit
ton audience:
Berlin got II heavier last
night than II has ever had 40

Balfour also reported that the

The Berlin raid was only part
OF the British offensive last night.

detectives in western Germany and

fighters carried out intruder
patrols over France. the air
ministry said.
The previous heaviest raids on
Berlin were those on the nights
of January l6 and II, which broke
a lull extending back TO Novem-
Der 7 and s. 1871. Although the
tonnage Of bombs dropped in the
January raids was not disclosed,

JAPAN IS IN | THE U. s. BUT
 | NO MACARTHUR

New York, March ie-(Up)--A study of the Postal Guide discloses there is Q Japan right here in the United States, four Tokios and l4 Berlins, to say nothing of couple of Rising Suns and Q Mikado.
 The Japan referred to is in North Carolina, the Tokios in Arkansas, North Dakota, Ohio and Texas, and the Berlins in Alabama, Connecticut, Georgia, Illinois, Maryland, Massa. chusetts, New Hampshire. New Jer- sey, New York, North Dakota, Ohio, Oklahoma. Pennsylvania and Wis. consin. The Rising Suns are in Maryland and Indiana, and the Mi- kado in Michigan.
 But they are "All-Americans" all Their patriotic attitude is exempli- fled by the fact that citizens of Mi- kado considered changing it's name but because of the confusion" that would have been caused and the "red tape" that 1t would have been neces- sary to unwind to accomplish 1t, Acting Postmaster Mamie B. Deford said the idea was abandoned. Nevertheless, there is a definite distinction between Mikado, the hamlet in Michigan, and the mika. do. ruler of Japan. The "a" in Mi- kado is sounded like that in day" while that in mikado, referring to the emperor, is sounded like the "a" in father.
 That isn't all. There are also two Casa Blancas, one in New Mexico and another in California; Algiers Ind; Gibraltar, Pa; Morocco, Ind; Shanghai, Va; Solomons, Md; Buna, Texas; Tunis, N. C.; England, Ark: Russia, O., two Chinas, Me. and Texas, and two Tripolis, Ia and Wis.
 Added to these are 17 communities named Paris, five Darwins, nine Londons, five Manilas, il Moscows, I0 Cantons and seven Cairos.
 There is both Peace and War Peace, Ark, and War, w. Va. A Churchill, Ida, 10 Roosevelts.

 Fifty years ago Henry Ford re- solved that he always would be c working man." He has stuck to that resolution. still essentially mechanic, his interest In me- chanical problems is genuine.
