U55R BREAKS
 WITH POLISH
 EXILE GROUP
Soviet Stand Opposes An- n0un(ement of U. }.
 and Britain

LONDON, Jan. 5 Russia has announced recognition of the Polish Provisional Government in Lublin, making a clear break with the Polish Government in E Xile in London, which is still recognized by the United States and Britain, thereby bringing to head one of the thorniest questions facing the impending Big-Three barley.
 Broadcast of the announcement came within four days after the joint announcement by the United States and Britain that they stood by the London Polish Government leaders of the Polish Peasant Party.
 London sensed the possibility that Mosco might announce recognition of the Lublin Govern ment before Roosevelt, Churchill and Stalin meet, and they charged that if Russia acted before the meeting it would be an attempt to present the other two powers with "fait accompli"
 Moscow's announcement con- corning the Lublin group made no reference to the rival Lon d 0 n government.

 Although Russia's action was not unexpected here, it was obvious from diplomatic reaction that 'the worst has happened" No immedi- ate way to break the deadlock appeared.

Farm Loans for vets
 World War II Are
 SoontoBeAvaiIabEe
By JACK sTINNETT

WASHINGTON, Jan. Within a few days now, the Veterans Ad- ministration will be ready to go to. town (rather to the country with farm loans for veterans of World War II.
 The home loans came first and to some extent already are being made. The loans to set up private business will come later.
 Many veterans are going to be disillusioned if they think all they have to do is walk into one of the lending agencies blanks, building and loan associations, etc), ex- plain that they want loan to buy quafter section out wonder, and couple of days later walk off with the money.
 There will be much red tape. Some will be because the Veterans Administration now is experiencing it's worst growing pains since birth. VA always has been bureaucratic agency With the demands of pres sure groups what they have been since World War I, it couldn't very well have been otherwise.
 But much of the red tape will be the VAS and governments ef- forts to protect the veteran against i himself and against inflated land values that might ill the end make him failure in spite Of his own personal industry, ability, and sim cere desire to get ahead
 Since no farm loans have been made or denied yet, there are no examples on hand, but in the few home loan applications that have been scrutinized, there's a key to whats to come.
 One example here in Washing ton was that of veteran who un- doubtedly could have kept up his loan and was ready with a sub stantial down payment from his own pocket But investigation dis closed that he was seeking to pur- chase a house for S9,600 that was built six. years ago for $5,500 and had been offered on the market several years back for less than : $7,O00.
 The VA and the Government are determined to prevent the veterans from getting saddled with that sort of bad investment. In the case of farm loans, that determination is going to be even greater. 1 The routine of applying for a farm loan consists of going to one of the lending agencies, filling cut |

 AFTER JAN. 20

WASHINGTON, Jan. 5. - Presi- dent Roosevelt said that his next meeting with Churchill and Stalin would take place after his inaugura- tion January 20.
