United States To Delay Offer Os Aid To Poles Will Refrain From Offering Aid Until Request By Poland WASHINGTON (UP) — The United States will refrain-from offerine aid to Poland in her battle for independence from Russia until the Poles themselves seek sistance. Officials said a premature aid offer on the part of the United States might Irritate Poland and prompt to charge this country with meddling in Polish internal affairs. But officials said that when and if a Polish request for help does come, the United States probably would look favorably on it unless it was a call for armed help. Secretary of state John Foster WIW warned Sunday that sending U. S. troops to Poland likely would set off World War 111. A group of Polish - American leaders called on Dulles Monday to give “the Polish government all assistance possible short of troops.” “Now is the auspicious time for the United States to seise the opportunity to press Immediately before the United Nations for the withdrawal of Soviet troops from Poland,” Charles Rozmarek, president of the Polish national alliance and Polish American congress, said. He also said the United States should offer Poland food and technical assistance. But American officials were not inclined to take the initiative in either offering aid or going to the United Nations. They said they saw little ground for going to the United Nations to demand withdrawal of Russian troops from Poland. They explained that the Warsaw Pact among Iron Curtain nations gives the Soviet Union the right to station troops in Poland and other Communist nations. They said there might be grounds for charging Russia with violating human rights and freedoms In the U. N. But none seemed to be thinking seriously of moving along that course at present. At the Adams county memorial hospital: Leo and Cordelia Worthman Schultz of 1727 Monroe street, are the parents of a baby girl, bom Monday at 1:53 p.m7,"weighing 11 pounds and two ounces. A baby daughter was born this morning at 8:38 o'clock,, to Jake and Lulu Walls Shaffer of 628 Kekionga street. She weighed six pounds and two ounces.
