enormous crops of grain,-wool and cotton-in

creased from 10 to 26 per cent In the last
six months, but only the thrift of the

to meet the-high costs. .
- "The remedy for conditions Is to a

the jreport said, and "if the public will

MIIiliERAND PROPOSES TfiRMS
hXll IUCXKiNIZINU SOVIET
(Copyright. 1920. by rnited Press)
Paris. Aug. 8. -U. P.)-France stands
ready to recognize the Bolshevikl the
moment they assume ' the international
obligations of the former Russian gov
ernment. Premier Millerand declared to
day to the United Press. 1
In his first interview since the allied
conference at Boulogne, the premier thus
clearly, defined his country's, attitude
toward- the Bolshevikl.
"France will recognize the Bolshevik
government the minute it assumes the
international obligations of tne former
Russian government," he said, "and this
includes, first, payment of all debts : sec
ond, acceptance of all treaties and ob
servance of , all International engage
ments with the former allies of the Im
perial Russian government."
FIRST CLEAR STATEMENT
Millerand 's interview was tLe first
clear-cut, categorical announcement of
the terms under which diplomatic rela
tions may be restored between Paris and
Moscow. It was the first time that the
premier . in any - public . expression had
definitely committed himself to recogni
tion, narrowing down the conditions to
a single, concrete prerequisite. ' -
We will naturally expect Moscow to
present evidence of the sincerity of her
Intention to carry out her obligations,"
the premier said. 1 -
He declined to go into details with ref
erence to the nature of the guarantees,
sarins : - . : . -
"Thus far Moscow has not made any
offer to recognize the engagements of
the preceding government. You may
say for -me that we will treat with them
politically the Instant . they fulfill this
condition." . ,
WANTS AID FROM TJ. S.
Millerand laid stress on -the desirabil
ity of the United States participating in
the settlement of the Russian question.
When asked if the Russian policies of
France and the United States were the
same, he smiled slightly- and. with an
expressive gesture- of hopelessness, re
plied : v 1
"I don't know what the United States'
Russian policy Is. Washington, unfor
tunately, apparently has completely
withdrawn from European affairs. All
I can say is I'm sorry and hope she will
reenter soon. '
So far, the premier said, he had re
ceived no diiect word of the Polish
armistice terms. ;
"If they fall to agree." he declared.
"France will support Poland to the ut
most, with officers and war material.
Whether French troops will be sent will
be determined when the need for mak
ing a decision arises." -

men. were separated from their . own

FUSE BEFORE RUSSIANS' ;
; When the German army invaded
Po
land in 1915 the Director family was
forced to flee from the little - towri of
Chortorisck. They took with them only
a few horses. Overland to Lutzk they
fled only to have the Russians burn that
city to prevent it falling into the hands
of the Germans. .
By the Russians they were forced to
the city of Koval in Austria. After a
year of refuse near that city during
which : time they lived in trenches and
hovels, they were forced farther into
Austria when the Russians captured the
City. r: ."- K
Again their respite was brief, for the
German army swept down through Aus
tria, took the city and drove all the
Poles back to the land ; they had come
from. Then in 1J19 the Ukrainians took
Poland and the outlook became darker
than ever, tmly to clear ! again when the
warended and the Republic of Poland
was Inaugurated. :
STARVATION IS FACED !
But separated from ail lines of com
munication with the outside world, the
ravished land could " provide but little
sustenance and the survivors faced slow
starvation. Only one piece of bread a
day was allowed each one in Poland! 1
men disease came to rack the bodies
of the starved Polanders. but the Direc
tors escaped to come to America. -
Starvation and pestilence have re
duced the ranks of the Polish army. 'sup
plies are Impossible to obtain and the
new arrivals in this country fear, for
their home land, not believinx: that their
brave countrymen can withstand the on
slaught of the Russian Red armv much
longer. 1 They fear that their tormented
relatives and friends will again be forced
to flee to strange lands..!
During the year the i Directors - have
seen much of the Russian Bolshevikl.
They said that hunger forced the .Rus
sians into the ranks Of the Bolshevikl
and that soldiers .of the new regime
killed all those who refused to become
members of their party, - . ,
