What Goes On In Poland
B YPETER EDSON
: NEA Service Staff Correspondent
WASHINGTON—Since Soviet Russia won't per
mit American newspapermen to go into Poland,
the only two sources of information from that
blacked-out spot on the map ate first, what news
the London-Warsaw government underground is
able to smuggle out %of the country, and second,l
what the Moscow-Lublin government chooses to
pass out.
The critical and cynical U. S. newspaper reader,
who has a pretty good batting average in judging
the cutrves on all such pitches, will be pardoned
if he uses his fishy eye and lets most of these offer
ings go by as high, wide and outside. But every
once in a while the propaganda pitchers accident
ally deliver a fast one right over the plate and you
can swing at it. I
Definitely in this groove is a piece. called “Re
surgent=Poland,” occupying half of the latest issuel
of the “Information Bulletin of the Embassy of
USSR.”
This handy little eight-page pamphlet comes out
three times a week under the imprint of Russia’s
Washington embassy, and is therefore the official
last word on what Moscow thinks you should knuw;
and wants you to believe about its affairs.
The piece in question, by one K. Rudnitsky, leads
off with the assertion that, “The world is following
with intense interest the processes taking place in
liberated Poland.” Skeptics may say this is some
thing of an understatement, but let Mr. Rudnitsky
tell you:
SYMPATHY IS RIGHT ;
“Boldly laying new paths for its development on
Jines of broad political and economic democracy,”
he says, “the country is winning the sympathy
of all progressive sections of freedom-loving na
tions.
“No observer who is at all impartial,” Mr, Rudnit
sky continues, “can fail to be amazed "at the speed
and efficiency with which the newly resurrected
Polish state is handling the exceedingly difficult
problems.” ‘
He itemizes, “An overwhelming majority of the
industrial plants have been reopered . . . Today
industry is employing over 60 per cent of the pre
war, number of workers. Immense work has been
done to rehabilitate the railways,” and so on. Then
comes the caution:
“The government, as you know,” writes Rudnit
sky, ‘“took over large-scale industry, but it was
#lso obliged to extend its administration to a vast
number of medium and small enterprises, owing
to their owners.”
Where these owners are, the author doesn’'t say,
* but he does explain the philosophy of this expro
priation in most revealing terms: :
“From the very first,” he says, “the provisional
government has decldred that private initiative
and private capital would be allowed and encour
aged in medium and small industry. These medium
and small plants- are now being turned over to
their lawful owners, or if the latter are not avail
able, to the producers’ cooperative societies, or
else leased to private individuals.”
REDS AIM TO PLEASE—PEASANTS .
This being so satisfactorily explained, Rudnitsky
next takes up agrarian reform: ;
“Literally on the day fellowing the ejection of
the invaders,” he writes, “when the sound of guns
had not yet ceased, the provisional government
proceeded to carry out the primary point of its
program, namely, the abolition of the landed estates
and the apportionment of the land to the peasants.
“The reform, embracing the whole of Poland
from one end to the other, is now in the main com
pleted. Individual peasant holdings have been
demarcated and deeds conferring private ownership
of the land issued. Some 4,300,000 hectares (over
10,000,60 p Mhres) were confiscated from the big
landowners.”
Well, that's how Moscow wants you to believe
thjngs are in Poland. There's a lot more to thel
article, but these pertinent paragraphs will give you!
the idea. While it lasted, it was just a nice, quiet
well-managed little revolution they must hav’e%ad.‘
The government warns that the food shortage
is going to get worse. Eat what fresa vegetables you
can now, and can what you can't eat. ‘
’ ’l'here"s one thing that all the home-coming boys
. havp a right to expect to find—that we're doing our
share of War Bond buying! -

AMERICANS GOOD SPENDERS
England, France and Italy will miss
the open pocket books of the American
soldiers who have proved to be such good
spendérs. However these countries are
looking forward to the return of the
Ameérican tourists who will be sight-seeing
and spending their money more freely
than ever before.
In commenting on the withdrawal of
our American troops, the Financial News
in London has this to say: ‘“Withdrawal
of a major part of the AEF from the ku
ropean to the Far Eastern theater of war
is an event of first rate importance ivom
the point of view of the international
dellar position.; American spending con
stituted a welcome addition to our deple
ted dollar reserves,” and added that
France, Italy, Egypt, and other Middie
East countries also must have benefited
because of the presence of large forces
of Americans. e
One country’s meat is anothers poison ‘
It is now the turn of the countries of thel
Pacific to benefit by American military |
spending. China and various .Pacific is—l
lands will become holders of substantial
dollar reserves which should help Amer
ican trade after the war. e
American military spending in the F;fd\!‘l
East will add to the difficulties of Eu
ropean exporting countries in recovering
their Far Easterpa markets, since the
Eastern importers will be in a position to
buy in the United States.

‘MEMORIAL POSTAGE STAMPS
1t is fitting and proper for the postof
fice department to issue memorial stamps
in honor of the late President Roosevelt.
The stamps will appear in denominations
of one, two, three and five cents. Just
how soon these stamps will be placed on
the market has not been anounced.
Many of the stamps will be purchased
and put away by individuals, while
stamp and coip collectors will buy them
up in large numbers with the hope of be
ing able to sell them at a premium in
years to come.
President Roosevelt was one of the
world’s ranking philatelists and these
new stamps will not only earry his por
trait, but in the background is a picture
of the Little White House.
NO CUTBACK IN RESEARCH
The cutback in airplane production is{
welcome, bringing as it does an estimated
saving of $4,000,000,000 in the c,enshuc-‘
tion of 17,000 aireraft, and a sizable but
gradual return of aviation’s tremendous
labor force to the civiliany job market.
This is a preview of what will happen
immediately after V-J Day in aviation
and other war production industries under
Section 202 of the War Mobilization and
Reconversion Act. But it also raises the
question of what will happen then to avia
tion’s research and development program.
Section 202 sates: ‘“Any contracting
agency shall terminate prime contracts
for war production whenever, in the opin
ion of the agency, the performance under
such contraets will not be needed {cr the
prosecution of the war, and shall not con
tinue performance under such contracts
merely for the purpose of providing bus
iness and employment.” ‘
Then comes the phrase on which the
question rests:“ .. . unless the Office of
War Mobilization and Reconversion fiuds
that the continuation of some or al]l of
the work in process under such cortracts
lwill benefit the government.”
The phrase’s interpretation is a matter
of personal opinion. There is no clear
definition of the fate of the aviation de
velopment noyw in progress, not only for
the Pacific war but for the future. what
becomes of research into jet prepulsion.
guided missiles and other deveiopment
when the war ends? At present! there is no
agreement and no answer. |
It seems to us that there shouid be
both. When the first German jet plane
and the first robot bomb appeared in ‘ne
European skies they put the mighty Al
lied pir fleets in the obsolescent class. The
fact that the number and power of those
fleets retarded full use of new air weap
ons in Europe and will probably prevent
their use by the Japs does not mean that
their military days are not numberad.
We may hope that there will be no
military neeq for these air weapons in the
future. We must ‘work to make 'hat hope
a reality. But at the same time we cannot
afford to repeat our costly aviation errors
of the period following the last war

DID IT EVER
s .
l Items for this column are
written approximately, a
week in advance of publica
tion.
At our request, one of my
neighbors gave us some ex- |
' cerpts from a letter recently
received from Paris.
“Well, here it is—the town 1
mean—looking jmst about normal,
though when we first got here it
seemed embalmed. It was nine
o'clock, broad daylight, and we
drove into the Place Vendome (in
an autobus that dated from about
1925) to find it almost deserted.
I had an erie feeling that it was
about 1938 and Ribbentrop was
in town, )
(Many Athenians have stopped
at Place Vendome. hotels. Ribben
trop was Nazi foregin minister in
1938).
“However, next morping things
look different. 1 was awakened
about five o’clock when France
began to be reconstructed under

in town), SHAEF" cars and pri
vate cars probably driven by
iminor officials’ nephews. A ban

down — Paris returning to nor

“Don’t let anybody fool you,

PERMANENT RELATION ;
The marriage relation between
men and women appeared in
earlier days in many strange
guises. In tae beginning, the wo
men was the spoil of war, the
property of the man strong enough
to seize her and carry her awhy.
As civillzation developed, mar
riage Cusgoms and conventions un
derwent curious alterations.
In some lands, a man had many
concubine, in some, where a
feeble attempt was made to sta
bilize the relationship, it ebcame‘
polygamy. In various royal fam-'
lilies. tae morganatic marriage has
been an accepted institution. In;
other countries, a man could di
vorce his wife at will; while, in-’
still others, marriage was sup-!
posedly designed only for physi
cal pleasure. There was a time;
in Assyria when girls who
reached marriageable age were!
sod te their future husbands on
the auction block. |
But with the concept of Chr'is-i
tian marriage,a new relationship
appeared—and stayed. It is the]|
only ancient. institution that is|
functioning today, and it will
continue to do so. And yet from
time to time one hears outcries
against it.
i . ‘
~ “Marriage is a failure,” ' its
critics declare. “‘Look at the en-.
ormous incease of divorce. We|
have experimented wita every-l
thing else; let’s experiment with
marriage. It is an outworn sys
tem.” i
These blithe critics bring forth|
taeir panaceas, their new system!
their companionate mariages. their
trial marriages, and /eavens
knows what else. The curious|
thing apout it is that all these!
“new” sheories are older than'
Christian marriages. When the
alarums and excursions hdve died
down, we recognize them as fa
miliar makeshifts 'which have|
been tried and abandoned many!
times before. They are merely|
different names for what amounts
to legal concubinage.
No matter how many substi
tutes may be offered, no matterl
how many theories may be pro
posed, taere is only one perma-i'
nent, normal relationship upon!
which a home can be{established.'
That is taé relationship of one
man and one woman joined to
gether for better or for worse
until death do them part. Y%\;J;
cannot uproot the mating instind}, |
or the desire of woman for home,!
fireside, and children,. So men‘
and woman will continue o fall
in love and marry, whatever else|

1t has always seemed to me that
the chief reason for the fact
that mariages at tae Litte Church
have been in the overwhelming
majerity, successful is because it is
not easy to be married there. The
cure for marriage ills lies not in
easy divorce, but in hard marriage,
