FDR Supports
Strong Poland
Effort Underway
TO Untonsle Problem

WASHINGTON, Oct. IL -
(PD- President Roosevelt threw
his weight to the establishment
of Poland as a strong nation"
as Prime Minister Churchill and
Marshal Stain prepared today
to bring rival Polish leaders to-
gether in Moscow.
Attention focused on Moscow
efforts TO iron out a two-year-
old diplomatic tangle now SC
snarled officials consider il a
menace to Allied unity, but the
Presidents statement increased
the pressure for settlement be-
tween the eXiled Polish govern
ment in London and the rival
Soviet backed Polish National
Committee.
Mr.. Roosevelt told Polish
American leaders yesterday "Po-
land must be reconstructed as a
great nation" and that II am
certain that world opinion is 60
ing 10 back up that objective"
Charles Rozmarck, president
of the Polish-American Con-
gresS, who asked the President
to defend the just principle of
Poland's independence and also
her national integrity " in
view of the attitude of Soviet
Russia TO the Polish govern
ment," said he was exceeding
ly gratified' at the Presidents
response.
The exchange Of remarks was
released at the White House
shortly before Moscow announc-
ed that leaders of the Russian
supported Polish National Lib
Grafton Committee were in that
capital, and Prime Minister
Stanislaw MikolajCzyk of the
eXiled government was prepar-
ed 10 lily there.
The Polish-American leaders
asked Mr.. Roosevelt for assur-
ance that you will insist that
neither an alien nor a puppet
system of government shall be
imposed upon Poland nor that
any part of her population will
ever be disposed Of or trans
ferred against the really freely
expressed will of the Polish
people"
Rozmarek interpreted tn e
Presidents reply as new hope"
for the people Of Poland.
The President avoided COM
hitting the United States to sup
port either of the opposing Pol
ish groups. He said 1--WE should
all bear in mind that nobody
here has accurate information
about everything that is going
on in Poland"
Nevertheless, his declaration,
timed as it was, gave added
pressure for settlement of the
ticklish Polish dispute which
Nazi propagandists are attempt
ing 10 use as a wedge between
the Allies.
