YALTA REPORT GIVEN
 BY PRES. ROOSEVELT


 WASHINGTON - President Roo seyelt put squarely up to congress- the choice of underwriting world collaboration for future peace or bearing the responsibility of an other world conflict"
 There can be no middle ground here said the president in a per sonal report of the Big Three talks in the Crimea, which marked tbe turning point in American hls- tory"
 Speaking in all frankness" at a joint session Of the senate and house, the president said thai whether his momentous parlevs with Churchill and Stalin will be entirely fruitful or not lies to n great extent in your hands"
 Support Vital
 Roosevelt linked the fate of tbe United States and of the world for generations to come on the Dunn barton Oaks and other agreements soon to be submitted to the senate for ratification, for unless voY here in the halls of the American congress with the support of the American people. concur in the de- eisions reached at Yalta and give them your active support, the meet Ing has not produced any lasting results for world peace, which is not a party question any more than Is a military victory"
 Unique Occasion
 There was standing room onIv and crowds looked down from the galleries in the house chamber upon scene unique in history. as Roosevelt sat informally on a red plush chair brought from the White House He was spotligbtpd by camera lamps, and faced a clug- ter of l8 microphones, which car ried his words to radio listeners
 Crowds bearing special tickets flowed through police lines and damned galleries and corridors for hours before the session was called to order.
 For Germany the president voiced again the emphatic ultimatum of unconditional surrender" and in- dicated simultaneously that a gen eral surrender of the Nazi govern ment is not expected.
 He said, The German people as well as the German soldiers must realize the sooner they give up and surrender by groups or as individu- ais, the sooner the present agony will be over"
 Asserting the whole Polish oues- tion would be a potential source of trouble for postwar Europe. the falta participants determined to find a common ground for it's solu- tion, and the president said I've did"
 The decision to partition Poland he described as a compromise un- der which Poland receives compen- sation in territory in the north and west for what she will lose east of the CurzOn line. Limits of the western boundary, he said, would be permanently fixed at the final peace conference.
