concerning an early morning fire

man as saying he was angered with

fire was of incendiary origin. He
valued the horses destroyed at
5000 900.
N. T. Mayo of Richmond, Va, who
trained seven of the horses lost, told
detectives he had ordered the former
stable hand from the grounds Fri
day. James Mcclellan, a groom, said
the man returned later and warned
him:
Don't sleep too soundly tonight.
Watch out for fire"

ployes were burned or otherwise in

vigorously to an early conclu-
sion"
The report. to the House Military
Affairs Committee. was prepared as
a result of increasing requests for
furloughS for men serving abroad.
To permit the return OF even
10000 men monthly the depart
ment said. I'VE must immobilize four

equivalent of eight to IA divisions.

Selection Of individuals to be re-

Determination is based on local con-

building of mind and body required. 4"

Generally speaking, men are re-

planned.
Reduction in the size Of our

Partial Decisions
On Polish Question
Believed Near
By the Associated Press.

6s lne Associated PreSs.
MOSCOW, Oct. 16.-One or more
aspects Of the Polish question ap-
peared near decision today.
With all official quarters rigidly
silent, observers furnished these
bare facts:
United States Ambassador w
Averell Hartman and Polish For
eign Minister Tadeusz Romer met
this morning. British Foreign Min
lister Anthony Eden at noon re-
ceived Polish Premier Stanislaw
Mikolajczyk, Romer and Stanislaw
Grabski, president of the Polish Ma
tional Council.
As yet no face-to-face discussion,
have taken place between London
and Lublin Poles but these were IN
prospect.
Mr.. MikolajcZyk and Prime Min
lister Churchill had conversations
lasting more than two hours yester-
day. Mr.. Eden and Mr.. Romer sal
In but the two Prime Ministers did
most of the talking. Later in the
day Mr.. Mikola jczyk and Mr.. Romel
were closeted with Mr.. Eden.
Churchill, Stain Confer.
Mr.. Churchill and Premier Stain
conferred for an hour yesterday
with British and American military
representatives in what was under
stood to be a broad overall discussion
on how to bring the war In Europe
to a speedy close
They met with Maj. Gen! j. Rus
sell Deane, chief of the United
States military mission to the Soviet
Union; 1t. Gen. Brocas Burrows,
chief of the British Military Mis-
sion; Field Marshal Gen. Sir Alan
Brooke, chief of the British I'M
perial Staff, and Gen. Sir Hastings
Ismay, Churchill's chief of staff.
Prime Minister Churchill, his
health probably more robust than
at any other time this year, is put
ting in some hard licks Of work on
his mission to Moscow.
When he is not in conference with
Premier Stain his time is occupied
with reading diplomatic dispatches
from Whitehall and with reports
from all over the world which pour
into his quarters here.
After the dinner for Premier Stain
at the British Embassy the other
night Mr. Churchill and the Soviet
leader continued their conversations
until am Usually they break off
their nightly meetings at am.
Cleans Civ HcurS N;ohflv
His aides say Mr.. Churchill man
ages to get an average of six hours
sleep every night, however and tries
to squeeze in a short nap after din
ner.
An American limousine with bull
let-proof glass has been put at his
disposal by the Government. One
OF the city's best chefs is demon
strating his virtuosity with Russian
and English dishes at the Soviet
guest house, where Mr.. Churchill is
staying.
1t is reported reliably that the
Prime Minister IS not an ardent
convert to vodka, but likes it we'll
enough with certain hors d 'oeuvres.
He has not indicated any dismay at
the quantities of vodka in evidence
at Moscow banquets.
Mr.. Churchill has given Premier
Stain an autographed picture of
himself in return for one the Soviet
leader sent him after the Teheran
conference year ago. The picture
bore cordial inscription to Pre-
mier Stain. but its exact wording
was not released.
