SOVIET & POLAND
MOVE TO END STATE OF WAR PRISONERS HELD IN RUSSIA. AVAILABLE AS FORCE AGAINST NAZIS. (By Telegraph—Press Association— Copyright) LONDON. July 7. The diplomatic correspondents of “The Times’’ and the “Daily Mail” agree that while British ami Russian cooperation is developing satisfactorily, a promising attempt is being made to end the state of war which formally exists between the Soviet and Poland. If agreement is reached the Polish Government is anxious to obtain the release of 200 000 prisoners of war and re-equip them for service against Hitler in Russia. Before such a move is made the Poles are demanding Russia’s "denunciation of the RussoGerman agreements which led to the partition of Poland in 1939 and the fixing of a line of demarcation. The Polish Premier, General Sikorski, and the Soviet Ambassador to London, M. Maisky,' have submitted proposals which can be unified into a common plan. Each side has shown friendly recognition of the standpoint of the other. It is clear that only their common enemy, Germany, would benefit from continued misunderstanding.
