POLES REFUTE CHARGE
GERMANS FROZEN ON TRAIN X LONDON. Jan. 25. The Polish Embassy press office, replying to the statement in the House of Commons by the Minister in Charge of Affairs in Germany, Mr. Hynd, that 111 Germans were frozen to death and 57 suffered from frostbite in a refugee train from Poland, says the cars were equipped with stoves and straw. Food was provided in quantities agreed upon by the Polish and British authorities. Official records signed by the liaison teams confirmed the receipt of the transports in due order. The Polish authorities had no responsibility, it was stated, for the transports once the British liaison teams took them over.
