ORIGIN OF THE MOVEMENT
(Received October 13, 10 a.m.)
LONDON, 12th October.
The origin of Zeligowski's action lies in the fact that his troops are chiefly inhabitants of the Vilna and Grodno districts. The Lithunian Government confiscated the property of Lithuanians serving in the Polish, army, designating them traitors.. • Zeligowski's troops resented the armistice giving Vilna to Lithuania without consulting the inhabitants' right of self-determination.- The League of Nations Mission is at present traversing Poland, bufc the feelings of the Poles towards the Mission are not amiable. A Copenhagen report states that Zeligowski has resigned from the Polish army, and is operating entirely on his own account.
