America's Ambassador to the exiled Allied governments in London, Mr. Anthony J. Drexel Blidic. Jr. of Philadelphia, is shown a Polish gun position on the Scottish coast by General Paszkiewicz, un old 'acquaintance. Their meeting in Scotland recalls dramatically the days when Mr. Biddle was Ambassador to Poland, whence the General's gallant veterans have fought their way across Europe, to continue until victory the fight for freedom. Mr. Biddle is now U. 8. envoy to five Allied govern- menta in Britain: the Belgian, Dutch, Norwegian, Polish and Yugoslav. All of these have fighting forces at their command, but the largest in Britain are the Polish-about 70,000 men, with an addi- tional 10,000 in the Royal Air Force.
