POLISH-LITHUANIAN DIFFERENCES. DIFFICULTIES OVER FRONTIER. BY CABLE—PRESS ASSOCIATION—COPYRIGHT LONDON, Jan. 3. A Kovno ■ telegram reports that a Lithuanian court-martial has sentenced to death a. man and a woman on the charge of espionage on behalf of Poland. It has also sentenced two women and a man to terms of imprisonment ranging from 10 years to 8 years for complicity. The “Morning Pest’s” Warsaw correspondent says events are showing that Sir Austen Chamberlain was correct in. describing the compromise between Poland and Lithuania as only a step towards a solution of .the differences between the two countries. M. Valdemara’s public utterances are becoming less conciliatory. He declares it is for Poland to make proposals. These, apparently, must be territorial concessions or a change in the status of Vilna. Poland, however, regards .the frontier as settled once and.,for all. “Under these circumstances,” says the correspondent, “no speedy solution of the dispute is anticipated here.”
