Received Wednesday, 11.30 a.m. WASHINGTON, Feb. 4. President Truman personally told -tlie new Polish Ambassador, M, Josef Winiewiz, that the Polish Government had failed to fulfil its pledge to hold free national elections. ^esident Truman, however, re/elved the envoy and accepted hj.n as the "Ambassador of the Republic of Poland." This has apparently ended speculaticn .that the United States might break diplomatic relations with Poland as a result of the manner in whic'h the elections were held. President Truman said: "It is the cause of deep concern to me and the American people that th Polish Provisional Government ha§ failed to fulfil its pledge. The United States Government has not lost interest in the Polish people'S welfare, and it is with this in mind that I offer to you the co-operation of the officials of this Government."
