MISSIONS CHANGE PLANS
BRITAIN AND FRENCH REMAINING -IN MOSCOW (Reed. August 26, 11 a.m.) LONODN, Aug. 25. Following yesterday's report from Moscow that the British and French military missions had obtained visas and were expected to leave to-day, probably via Finland to avoid Germany, the Moscow correspondent of the Manchester Guardian says that the missions have reversed their decision to leave.
The British Embassy in Moscow confirmed the change of plans, but declined to discuss whether the change had been made because grounds exist for believing that the talks may be resumed.
Members of the missions saw Marshal Voroshilov, but declined to cohfirm or deny a report that the Soviet was seeking a peaceful solution of the Danzig dispute.
