The Poles 1t appcaIs have acted as
becomes heroes. They met their foes
at Grockhow, sustained conflict of
two hours, and defeated then enemy,
who lost GOOO men in killed and wound

the general opinion IN Paris and Lon
don that the Russian campaign against
Poland was at an end This brilliant
victory has convinced Europe that the
Poles not only deserve TO be free, but

troops from the States Of the Church,
will run the risk of being charged with
political Quixotism in the cause of llbcr-
