MORE ACUTE

The problem has become al the
more acute today because Of the
failure of Polish Prime Minister
Niikola iczyk 70 win the support Of
the London Polish government for
the proposals he brought back
from Moscow last month.
It is now revealed that those
proposals included an answering
Soviet demand for all Polish ter
ritories east of the CurZon Line.
This was described as a fixed de-
mand. not open 20 negotiation.
But this demand was found
utterly unacceptable TO the Polish
government-unless Russia were
willing 10 exclude from her de-
mands the city of Lvov and the
Galician oil district.
CABLES ROOSEVELT
This is the suggestion which has
now been dumped into the Presi-
dents lap. II is reported that
Premier Mikolaiczyk cabled di-
rectly to President Roosevelt, re-
questing that the President try To
save Lvov for Poland.
A further request has been
made of both the United States
and British governments, namely
that they guarantee the future
independence OF Poland with the
new frontiers.
American officials today gave a
categorical reaction to this re-
quest-in the negative.
The only way Pelands frontiers
could be guaranteed. il was point
ed out. would be through the new
international security organiza-
ton to protect all nations from
aggression.

O'reilly, despite his naval du-

Evans-the terror of the links
from 1909-1925 during a career eli
