GERMAN GAIN
DIVISION REVISED CITY OF WARSAW WHOLE OF THE VISTULA NEW FRONTIER OUTLINED (Reed. Sept. 30, 9 a.m.) LONDON, Sept. 29. Referring to the agreement between Germany and Russia concerning Poland, a Berlin radio broadcast announced that the new frontier starts at the southern tip of Lithuania, proceeding in a general direction westward until it reaches the East Prussian frontier.
It then follows the River Pissa southward to Narew and goes thence south-eastward to Nur, on the River Bug. From Nur it follows the Bug south-eastward to Konstantynow and thence in a general southerly direction to the River San and follows the river to its source.
This gives Warsaw and the whole of the course of the Vistula to Germany and also eastern parts of counties embracing Bialystok, Lublin and Lwow originally assigned to Russia.
