POLES REDEEM CITY.


| BY Associated press,
Poznan. Poland. April 27.--Poznan,
which for more than hundred years
under German rule was known as
Posen, IL undergoing many altera-
lions as result Of the outcome or
the war and the peace conference
which gave Poznan back to Poland.
Just recently, the task OF changing
| the name OF every street In town
| from German to Polish was complet-
cd. the task having been worked out
by a commission which began Its du-
ties soon after Poznan became city
Of the new republic.
One OF the principal thorough
fares which had been known as Ber-
liner strasse has been renamed the
street of December Twenty-sev-
enth," this being what Is considered
the very last day of the Germans In
Poznan. A great square in the CEN
ter of the city, which since 1893 ex-
cepting an eight year interval after
Prussia's defeat by Napoleon Chat
being the year the Germans came to
Poznan) had been called Wilhelm
platz, is now known as Liberty Place.
And great statue Of Frederick III.
which stood for years in Wilhelm
platz, long ago disappeared, having
been torn down by Polish residents
of Poznan during the night of Dec.
"a, 1918, when there were riots and
much street fighting between Ger
man and Polish subjects. the upshot
of the demonstrations convincing
