SPECIAL TO THE "TELEGRAPH"

MOSCOW, Oct. 31 (UP),— "The restoration of Poland is senseless! Gormany is striving for peace, and Britain is now the aggressor!” Thus declared the Soviet Commissar for Foreign Affairs, M. Molotoff, in an impassioned speech at the Extraordinary Session of the Supreme Soviet to-day.

About 1,000 Deputies, including 131 West Ukrainians and White Russians in their picturesque costumes, gave a tremendous ovation which lasted for ten minutes when Stalin entered the flood-lighted Tsarist Throne Room of the Kremlin. Envoys of all belligerent and neutral powers were in attendance.

Changed Roles

M. Molotoff started his speech after the delegates had voted on an agenda calling for a report on the Soviet foreign policy and reports from the delegates in Polish areas now incorporated in the Soviet.

claimed aggression, are in favour of continuing the war and oppose the conclu- sion of peace. Their roles are changing," M. Molotoff said.

Discussing the changes in Soviet-German relations, the liquidation of Poland, and the present war, he said: "The ruling classes of Poland boasted of their night, but were shattered swift- ly by the German and Red Armies."

It is, he said, a senseless and criminal war for the destruction of Hlerison, camouflaged as a fight for democracy,

"Ideology cannot be destroyed or forcefully eliminated by war," he de- ctured and charged that the British
