Gomulka said the 20-year Po- lish-Soviet treaty first signed in April, 1945, was sealed by a "sea of blood' shed by Polish and Soviet troops on the road to Berlin in the Second World War. It also guaranteed Po- land's post-war frontier on the Oder-Neisse, he said. The treaty to be signed in Po- land now would outline for the next 20 years the path of co-op- eration between the two nations and would protect their secu- Polish Communist Party Chief Wladyslaw Gomulka, right, welcomes Soviet dele- gation to Warsaw today in ceremony at the railway station, Present, from left, Russian Premier -- Alexei Kosygin and USSR Commu- nist Secretary Leonid Brezh- nev, They wilt~hold solidar- ity meetings discussing ROES C Reds among other issues, Viet Nam, Red China and Ger- many.
