BRITAIN AND U.S.A. PROTEST TO POLAND REGARDING ELECTIONS
Recd. 5.30 p.m. London, Jan. 5. A joint British-American Note is being prepared for transmission to Warsaw strongly protesting about the oppressive conditions in which the Polish election campaign is being conducted, says the “Daily Telegraph's" diplomatic correspondent. Twenty-three members of the Warsaw Polling Commission were murdered, while eight were kidnapped and are believed dead, during December, stated a Government spokesman quoted by Reuter's Warsaw correspondent.
The spokesman, when asked by correspondents about the arrest of a person whom they interviewed, said: “Nobody in Poland would be arrested for speaking to correspondents. We could not arrest half of Poland."
