RUSSIANS SUBMIT I A BOUNDARY LINE Riga, Sept. 30.?Russian Bolshevik representatives at the peace conference here have submitted to Polish delegates suggestions for the boundary line between Poland and states adjoining to the east. At many points it is some distance east of the line fixed for Poland's eastern frontier at the Versailles conference, and touches the latter line for but a short distance in th$ neighborhood of BrestLitovsl| so. that, she . might have direct railway communication along her eastern frontier. Soviet delegates propose that hostilities cease within forty-eight hours after the preliminary treaty of peace is signed, and that Polish troops withdraw approximately fifteen miles westward of the de> markation line. They will withdraw the same distance, maintaining the rate of twelve miles in the first twenty-four hours. This strip of territory would be a neutral zone during the final peace arrangements.
