British policy appears to be the answer to the anomalous situation, for the nearby Russians have disavowed General Bor's forces in Warsaw as creatures of the Polish Government in London, which the Soviet Union refuses to recognize.

The British, South African and Polish crews have flown 100 bombers on these missions, not only facing the hazard of German night fighters, but coming in over Warsaw low and slow in order to drop the badly needed arms accurately and offering easy targets for ground gunners. fTTOTTTTR OLD AEnmivea-Scmiry Salle DEATH TOLL HIGH TORONTO.
