ALARMIST RUMOURS
POLISH-LITHUANIAN SITUA- . TION ANXIETY ON CONTINENT BRITISH CIRCLES NOT v PERTURBED (By Electric. Telegraph-Copyright) (Australian & N.Z. Cable Association^ . LONDON, 29th Nov. British official circlos are unruffled by the Continent's anxiety over the Polish-Lithuanian, problem, and are sanguine that no untoward event will occur now that both sides have appealed to Geneva. One comment is that the position is in no way mado worse because the Soviet jay* is suddenly trying to imitate the dove. In the House of Commons Mr Locker Lampson, Under-Secretary for Foreign Affairs, in answer to a question, said that the Council of tho League of Nations was about to examine the tension between Poland and Lithuania and he trusted that a settlement would be reached restoring friendly relations. The Government had no confirmation of the alarmist rumours published in the Press, and felt confident that neither party was unwise enough to act rashly while League deliberations were pend-. ing. Poland had just, assured the Leagus that she had, no, designs on Lithuania's political independence or [territorial integrity, and only desired the restoration of normal relations and the termination of the state of war which Lithuania was maintaining against Poland.
