Lewis Bldg., Portland, Orb IS BATTLEFIELD OF A Battlefield for Russia's and Germany's Advances and Retreats, Poland Has Suffered much Desperate Neu trality Being Maintained--Many Promises- By Both Germany and Russia Are Made. - BY LOWELL MELLETT .(Untied Press Staff Correspondent) London, May 1. (By Mail) The ancient kingdom of Poland just now presents the attentive attitude of the mouse that waits to see which way the cat will jump. It might be possible to express the situation in a more pleasant way, but the expression is that of Dr. Leon Litwinski, spokesman for the Poles in London. Poland, first caught in the mangle of the 'Russian advance and German retreat and then in the mangle of the German advance and Russian retreat, probably has suffered as greatly as any country of Europe, not including Belgium or Serbia. A mill ion nnd a half of her sons have been enrolled as belligerents, 900,000 in the Russian armies and 600,000 in the German and Austrian armies. But Poland's position in present Weltpolitik is that of desperate neu trality. Both Germany and Russia have promised her much. Poland wants to cash one of those promises. Ur the two, Russia offers the more a complete independence. But there is this drawback, Dr. Litwinski ex plained. Russia is promising inde pendence to territory occupied by German troops. And there is more , or less of a string attached to Germany's propos al, which is a completely reunited Pol and with its own local government, under the wing of ttie German Empire somewhat like the position of Bavaria. The string is the unrelenting emphasis on the suggestion that Poland raise Plant Now Sweet Peas, Pansies and all Morsc'fl Grand Prize California Seeds Cabbtffi.

C. MORSE ft CO. Seedsmen San Francisco J ft Market Place 1 an army of her own against Russia. "A reunited Poland would be e great betterment of our before-the-war situation,' said Dr. Litwinski, 'but what we want, of course,' is both a reunited and an independent country. kWe have been immensely encouraged 'by the proclamation of the new Rus sian government though previous Rus sian assurances, naturally, did not im press us very much." "Do you consider that President Wilson's mention of Poland in his discussion of possible peace terms has (had effect?"' "Oh, colosal!" exclaimed Dr. Lit winski. "Colossal!" echoed Dr. George de Sweitochowski. "Colossal, Colossall" repeated the other Poles in the room. "It was this way," said Dr. Sweit- i.ochowski. "There's been a lot of gen eralizing about small nations and there s been some mention of Bel gium and Serbia, but beyond that ; nobody has ever gone. The case of I Poland has been handled very pntrer ly. There has been the fear, perhaps, that it might be necessary to do a lot nf compromising when it came to 'settle Poland s case. President Wil son l"ft no room for doubt, so far as he wns concerned; he declared it .shoulrl be a reunited, autonomous, in dependnnt Poland! Now we know where we've got one real friend." , "fUinnose it becomes an independ ent Pol-md. will it be a republic or a monarchy? "That is now uncertain. Hitherto the Poles have had in mind a new Kingdom of Polnnd. But monarchies seem to be going out. "If our independence comes through 'Russia, where the democratic ideal has taken' a real hold, undoubtedly the disposition would be to make Toland a republic. If through Germany, a lim ited monarchy would seeem most likely unless there is a decided change in Germany in the meantime." Clear Away the Waste.
