1st. Session
 In 30 Years

Boston, Aug. 4-(UP)-The First U. s. Circuit Court of Appeals will hold its first Saturday session in 30 years tomorrow to consider the Puerto Rican governments demand that the territory's supreme court injunction, enjoining it from using a $l6,OO0,0O0 war emergency relief fund, be set aside.
 The suit to stop distribution Of the fund originally was brought by Celestino I. Miro, a Puerto RicaD taxpayer, who obtanied an injunc- tions in the U. s. District Court at San Juan. The injunction later was upheld by the islands supreme court.
 Miro charged that the relief coun- cil had unlsWfully authorized allo- cation and extension of the fund for the fiscal year l944-45. The case apparently hinges on the question of whether a restraining order iS- sued by the Puerto Rican supreme court can be appealed, and some officials believe the case may even- tnally be taken to the U. s. Stu preme Court.

MikoIoiczyk Sees StoIin

Moscow, Aug. 4-(UP)-Stanisla MlkolajcZyk premier of the Polish exile government, emerged in ex- cellent spirits but non-committal from his first conference with Premier Marshal Josef Stalin early today.
 Mikolajczyk carried with him from the Kremlin batch of type written sheets, but there was no in- dication whether they contained Soviet proposals or merely consti- tuted a report of the conference.
 Though he declined to comment or answer questions, Mikolaj jczyks jovial mood indicated that some progress toward an eventual rap- prochement between the two gov- ernments may have been made.
 At the same time, it was possible that at this initial session Mikola- jczyk only expressed his hope that solution could be found to the Pol- iSh problem and Stalin re-stated his desire for an independent Poland.
 There were no indications of the next steps on Mikolajczyks agenda, but observers here believed he must reach an understanding with the new Polish committee of liberation, which Russia has recognized as the civilian authority for liberated areas

REDS IN HUGE FLANK DRIVE ON WARSAW

Moscow, August 4.-UP) Panic-stricken German civilians have begun evacuat- ing East Prussia as the Red Army massed at the frontier for the first thrust onto Reich soil, Ivsestia reported today as other Soviet forces swung northweStward be- yond the Vistula in a grand scale flanking drive against Warsaw.
 Gen. Ivan DC Cherniakhovsky's army was poised on broad front for Q drive into East Prussia, but semi-official sources stated categor- ically that the border crossing had not yet been made.
 The government organ Izvestia (CQ) said the roads of East Prussia were damned with nondescript transport carrying civilians and property westward from the Soviet menaced region of the Fatherland, while fierce air battles ragged over- head.
 While Marshal Konstantin K. Rokossovsly's vanguard stormed the Praga outposts of Warsaw, his left wing veered up toward the city from the Vistula crossings which had driven a wedge within less than 100 miles of German Silesia to reduce the capitals defenses from the south if the frontal on- slaught were held up.
