The

one
of

Fifth
Columnists.
He
is
Arthur
Greiser,
whose
rule
by

in

earned
him
the
title
of
Hangman
of
the
Polish
People.
Before

Greiser
was

"of

used
his
office
to
terrorize

In

he
executed
100

before

of

in

for

foreign
Commissar
Molotov
handed
a
note
to
the
Japanese
ambassador,
a
Moscow
broadcast
said.
The
pact
was
signed
in
April
1941
and
whether
Russia
would
denounce
it
before
the
opening
of
the
world
security
conference
at
San
Francisco
April
25
had
been
the
subject
of
speculation.
Molotov
informed
the
Japanese
ambassador
that
continuance
of
the
compact
was
impossible
since
Japan
was
fighting
against
Russia's
allies
the
United
States
and
Great
Britain.
He
added
that
in
such
a
situation
a
pact
of
neutrality
between
Japan
and
Russia
had
lost
its
meaning.
The
denouncement
becomes
effective
April
13,
just
twelve
days
before

opening
of

San

conference.
There
is
no
hint
from
Moscow
as
to
further
immediate
developments
in
future
relations
between
Russia
and
Japan.
The
neutrality

would

have
