To Moscow for Talks
Reports from the United Ma
tions Conference in San Fran
cisco that Premier Stain has
invited former Premier Stanis-
law Mikolajczyk of the London
Polish government in exile to
return to Moscow for converse
tons on the creation of a Polish
government of national unity
today offered hope that the
American ritish-Soviet impasse
on this subject may be broken.
State Department officials said
that they had received no word OF
the reported invitation to the Lon
don Polish leader, but did not ex-
clude it as a possibility. They
pointed out, however, that under
the Yalta agreement by the late
President Roosevelt, Premier Stain
and Prime Minister Churchill, not
only Mr.. Mikolajczyk but also other
Polish democrats would have to be
included in the new Warsaw regime
if it is to fit the specifications drawn
up by the Big Three.
What was contemplated at Yalts
was the infusion of Polish leaders
both within and without POLAND
into the Communist dominated
Lublin group, which is recognized
automatically by the Soviet Unior
but not by the United States anc
Great Britain.
Barrier to Full Cooperation.
Settlement of the Polish question
officials point out, is important te

operation between the United States
and Russia in building the world

stood that progress has been made
toward its solution. Both the United
States and Great Britain favor the
inclusion Of Mr.. Mikolajczyk in the
new Warsaw regime, and If reports
that he has been invited to Moscow
for a third visit as true, they indi-
cate that Stain is ready to com.

Mr. Mikola jczyk, it was recalled

cases his efforts failed. Under the
Yalta agreement. an American
British-Soviet commission must pass
on the men to be included in the
reorganized Polish administration.

tial in the interest of enduring

This invitation has been held up
by the United States and Great

THE reality of the provisional

even by noninvitation to the San

cluded Polish Russian military al
