Fall of Warsaw Seems Certain — (Continued from page one ' terms which the bolshevik! were to present to Poland at the Minsk con- | ference today. The terms were announced by Premier Lloyd George in the house of commons during the night, aftet they had been handed to him by Leo Kameneff, one of the Russian representatives heue. In brief the bolshevik terms call for: Immediate reduction of the Polish army of 10,000 men with an annual draft for the army of 50,000 men thereafter. The time limit set on this demobilization is one month. Surrender to Russia of all super fluous arms. Prohibition of all shipments ot troops or materials into Poland from abroad. Granting to Russia of access to the Baltic with comercial advantages. Handing over to Poland of add' tional territory on Its eastern frontier to be given to the families of Poles killed In the war, as compensation. Demobilization of a)l Polish wai industries. Withdrawal of Russian troops from the Polish front as rapidly as Poland demobilizes its army and fulfills the other terms. Fixing of the armistice line as the actual front when fighting ends, the Poles to withdraw 34 miles to create a neutral zone. The Russian communication indicatde that the final frontiers to be granted Poland by Russia would be better from Poland's viewpoint than the borders established by the allies. Lloyd George refused to comment on these terms, as he said he did not wish to commit himself until after the Minsk conference.
