GRAMDENZ United Pr spondent BERLIN, Jan. 2.The Polish army, ad- vancing along the railways toward Berlin, has captured six German cities, according to information received here today. The Polish mobilization and advance has alarmed the German government. Counter measures are expected to be undertaken im- ediately. BERLIN, Jan. 2.—Herr Noske, newly | appointed minister of the army and navy, jhas ordered the arming of large German 'forces to oppose the Polish invasion of Gers. man territory. Much alarm was felt here today regarding the Polish advance. GENEVA, Jan. 2.—A Polish army of 30,000 to 40,- (000, striking ‘toward Berlin, has’captured Frankfort-on-thes we are #iad/Qder, only 50 miles from the German capital, the Polish jagency in Lausanne was notified by telegraph from Posen asx the champions | today. The Germans, the report said, are hastily re-arming their demobilized troops in an effort to stem the invasion, The Polish force consists of infantry, cavalry and ar- tillery, all well armed, the report said. Cavalry, moving rapidly ahead of the main body, was reported to have en- tered Posen and Frankfort-on-the-Oder. The important railway stations at Bauthen, Guessen and Bromberg, it was said, were occupied with but slight resistance. “T was unexpectedly called to the cabinet and am in no position to outline my whole program,” Noske told the United Press today. “But my first action will be to sup- press Polish violence.” POLAND HAS EYE ON OLD EMPIRE Polish History Tenth Century—First kingdom of Poland formed.
