POLAND ONCE uAE SAVIOR
OF EUROPE

Poland. who~e history is tragedy
and whose people have been called
children of the Sum-" plays no new
slaughts Of the boisheviki. for It was
she who once stayed the march Of
the Turk across Europe.
A communication to the National
Geographic society sums up Poland'a
sad and eventful history ms follows:
In size she outranked nearly every
nation Of the continent. Russia alone
Of the European nations Ia larger than
Poland was at her greatest. In popu-
lation she stood At the forefront Of
Europe. Only Russia and Germany
had greater populations before the
war than are to he found In the lands
that -once were Poland; for unparti-
toned Poland had an area Of $50, 900
square miles, and the lands That once
population Of approximately so mill
lion. In area she wns as large AS TIC
former German empire. Switzerland.
Belgium, Holland and Denmark to-
gether; larger than Great Britain.
Italy and Greece combined: larger
than Austria Hungary and Serbia In
one. Within what were her boundaries
there dwcils present population Of
Great Britain and Belgium; larger
than those Of France, Belgium and
Holland together; and matching that
Of the old Austria Hungary.
Poland was three times partitioned.
and these partitionings were read
justed between the Practitioners by the
Congress Of Vienna In 1915. Where
the original partitions had given Rus
STA 1871 900 square miles. Prussia $4,000
square miles. and Austria $1,000
square miles. the reapportionment Of
the Vienna Congress- gave Russia 2o0.-
200, Prussia $1,000, and Austria $4,000
square miles. Much Of the land which
Russia secured. and particularly Kley.
had been identified with Russia gen.
erationa before.
Poland. In the days Of her greatest
area. extended from . point within 80
miles of Berlin. on the west. to the
meridian Of the sea Of Azov on the
east: on the north II reached nearly
to the Gulf Of Finland and on the
souti, down to the Kliannte Of Crimea.
What we now know ms Russian
Poland II that neck Of territory
stretching westward between the
Prusslas and GnlIcia. This territory
has nm area almost exactly equal to
That Of New York, yet. In spite Of the
fact that Its extreme southern boun.
diary lies north Of the latitude bf Win
nipes. Its population is as great ~
those Of New York and New Jersey
combined.
