If the ItUBslanft advance farther Into
Poland all negotiation" for trade be
tween Great Britain and Russia will
be broken off.
Tho Soviet Government's note rejects
In Rubaunco the British peace proposal"!,
declining to send Its representatives to
London for a conference because, thi'
Bolshevists gay, Great Britain Is not
impartial. Also It objects to tne ad
mission of delegates from the Baltic
states, with which It says Ilusala is al
ready at pbnec.
As to Poland, the Bolshevist note
points out that the proposed armistice
lino is unfair to Poland, nnd that with
direct ncffotlatlons the Bolshevist are
prepared to grant Poland n much more
favorable frontier.
Tho Bolshevist reply refuses flatly
to entertain any conditions regarding
the forces of General Wrangel and the
refugees In South Russia, nnd demands
the unconditional surrender of these.
Tho tone of the reply is bareastlc.
and is regarded ns Intended to ilme
a wedge between Poland nnd tho Allies.
