POLAND ASKED FOR CONCESSIONS
Protests About Suggested
Frontier
(Rec. 8.30 p.m.) LONDON, Nov. 6. “There are concessions the Polish Government is unable to make,” declared M. Henryk Strasburger, who is Minister of State in the Polish Government in London, in a speech at Cairo. “Lwow and Vilna are perhaps dearer to Polish hearts than Warsaw itself. The famous Curzon Line which we are asked to accept as the new eastern frontier would amputate half our territory. “Poland cannot concede oilfields to Russia without risking economic destruction,” said M. Strasburger. “I do not mean we are not ready to accept certain rectifications, but they must be reasonable and must be carried out simultaneously in the east and west.”
