London, July 20th.—Following is the result ot the Goodwood Cup Race. Ist Mount Royal. 2nd Kentish Cob. 3rd Saint Kloi. Copenhagen, July 28th. -~ M. Litvinoff, the Bolshevist Assistant Foreign Minister, in an interview today insisted that Po- land, having in previous negotiatiors with Russia shown herself crafty and unfaithful, the Soviet Govt. must see to it that any armistice with Poland is not used to strengthen Poland’s forces for further aggression against Russia. More- over, Litvinoff added, in face of the les- sons already learned, we cannot rely ap- on mere assurances, even of the great powers. We are firmly resolved not to impose harsh terms on Poland but do not intend to abandon the cherished princi- nles of the self -determination of pcoples, because the fortune of war has favoured us. Litvinoff claims thart HRussia had given generous and hon urable terms to Esthonia, Georgia and Lithuania, when she stood vietorious over these States, thereby showing herself the true friend nf small nations. Poland, he continued, has nothing to' tear from us, as long as she is prepared to iive in peaceful and neighbourly relations. Our peace con- diticns will show an absence of aggres- siveness and our essentiaily peaceful aspi- rations. There is not a single influenti- al man in Soviet circles, but desires im- mediate peace with the rest of the worid. Parie. July 29th. - The Franco British Mission to Poland has made a report on the military situation in that countyy, which it declares, is not desperate and that it can be reiieved without great diffi- culty if the missions that remain recow- mendations are follewed.
