TUCKED AWAY in Mayfair back
l. street, behind the SumptuouS nine
story block of the Dorchester Hotel in
London, is the office of Gen. Wladyslaw
Anders, father" Of Poland's expatriate
army.
Remember Monte Casino? It was
Gen. Anders, wearing the badge Of
the 9th Army on one arm and the en-
blem Of Warsaw on the other, who cap
tured Monte Casino. His 10000
strong Polish I'd Corps suffered heavy
losses in the Italian campaign.
Today this 61-year-old crop-haired
Polish general sits in carpetless Office
above a lookup garage. On the walls
hang the war trophies and the battle
flags of that bitter march up the jack
boot Of Italy.
Gen. Anders is a civilian living on
a British pension of f1.500 ($4,200) q
year. He also is inspector general Of an
army which does not exist. There are
no officers, no troops. The last Polish
soldiers in Britain got out Of battle
dress in 1949.
- Why then, inspector general? It is
q title accorded to him by the Polish
SOVcEuIuSLC-IusCAuc, W1lCL1, SCVcu years
after the war, still exists; still meets,
under the presidency of August Zaleski,
in a terrace house in Eaton Place,
London.
The London government is recog-
nized as the legitimate government Of
Poland by the Vatican, Ireland, Spain,
Lebanon and Cuba. Friendly contact"
also is maintained with several South
American countries which have refused
to recognize the peoples government in
Poland.
More Importantly, Zaleski's govern
ment has an active unofflcial ambassa-
dor in the United States. It is not to
Britain, but to the United States, that
the exiled Poles look for the salvation
of their homeland.
Gen. Anders' title. inspector general,
is less honorific than it might appear.
There are 100000 Polish ex-soldiers in
Britain, many thousands more in the
Commonwealth and abroad. Gen. An
ders claims that, under his leadership,
$4,000 Poles in Great Britain would pick
up their rifles tomorrow and crusade
back to Warsaw under the banner Of
the white eagle. If the political hopes
of the Polish exileS are centered on the
new United States administration, the

No BubbIinq Optimist

Secretary Dulles, to put it mildly, has shown
notable restraint in commenting on the outlook
for success in building unified European de-
tense force. q
Speaking for himself and Mutual Security
Director Stassen as they returned to Washing
ton from visit to Western Europe, the Secre-
tary of State said: cat the moment, we limit
ourselves to saying that We are, on the whole,
encouraged by what we have been told by the
leaders of the six continental European nations
which have signed the treaty to create Euro
pean Defense Community"
Officials of the six nations-Italy, France,
Germany, the Netherlands, Belgium and Lux
embourg-Signed the treaty last May. But it
has not yet been ratified by any Of them largely
because of French reluctance to merge her
forces in continental army and because
of French fears of any revival Of German
militarism.
AS Mr.. Dulles pointed out, however, German
participation, both economic and military, Is
indispensable to an effective continental de-
fense" If the Germans stay out, or if they are
excluded by virtue of French objections, there
will be no effective basis for the defense of
Western Europe. And it certainly follows that,
lacking an effective defense structure, there is
little or no incentive for the United States to
continue to send military aid to Europe
JUST WnaC may nave been SAID py the Orn-
cials of the EDO countries to inspire Mr. Dulles
qualified encouragement is not clear from his
statement. Presumably, however, they gave as
surances that the treaty will be ratified. 1t is
to be hoped, certainly, that this is the case. For
If the EDO program collapses all of the time,
effort and money that have gone into the mill
tary defense of the West will have produced
little or nothing. Still, we in this country must
be prepared to face the fact that Europe cannot
be defended with American aid If the will to
unite in their own defense is lacking in the
nations of Europe.

spoken to in London-he was no sup
porter Of Gen. Anders-summed it
up like this: I'VE are romantic, impul-
sive and very patriotic people. Before
the assault on Monte Casino, AnderS
issued a famous order of the day.
Through Monte Casino to Warsaw!'
was his battle cry. # Anders, tomorrow,
blew the bugle and cried, TO Warsaw
through Hong Kong!' I believe most Of
the Poles in Britain would follow him."
Gen. Anders enjoys enormous pres
tige among the men who served
Under him. He is still "the father of
the army"-the great soldier, eight
times wounded, 13 times decorated, who
marched an army from Russia, through
the Middle East, North Africa and
Italy, to Britain.
There can be no doubt Of Gen,
Anders' extreme belligerency toward the
present regime in Poland. Bitterly dis
illusioned after the Yalta sellout. he
declared In q message to the army in
1916; Our march toward q free and
independent Poland goes on"
In 1850. at a rally Of the Polish Com
batants' Association, he said: I'VE are
RASNoSA w OOSAAAS dAA' Jul GA4OA HACS
toward bringing deliverance to millions
Of our, companions whom we left in So
Wet slavery"
And. again: There is no way out of
the present situation unless the u. N.
are prepared to 60 to war. But the U. N.
are not fully prepared for another war"
When. If ever. will Gen. Anders blow
his bugle for the call to arms? Not for
anything as vague as "the defense of
the West" He will lead Polish liberia
ton army. or no army at all. AS long
as the cold war remains at about it's
present temperature, therefore. he will
remain in civilian retirement at his
desk.
The political horizon frightened
when Dwight D. Eisenhower was
elected President of the United States.
The two generals are great friends.
They had long, confidential talks to-
gether in Paris, when Gen. Eisenhower
was at SHAPE.
Now. though the Polish government
in London is not recognized by any of
the great powers, Gen. Anders has the
ear Of the President Of the United
States. What better ear can you have
II you want to alter the map Of Europe?
And he is relying on $4,000 Poles IN
Britain to follow him If D-day comes.

provision. Instead, its position is that no AFL
union would permit strike to continue if the
public welfare really were threatened. In ether
words the AFL wants to replace the courts as
the judge of the effect of strike.
Perhaps this is position taken for bar
gaining purposes only. If the AFL officials are
serious about it, however, one can conclude only
that they have learned nothing from the last
election, and that they are riding for another
fall.

Treutinq Crime os q Joke

It seems to me that crime is a very
serious matter and should not be treated
as a joke. In The Star Of January "a,
one large-type heading dwo columns
wide) reads: "Thief's Coup at Beltsville
Coop Leaves Nothing to Crow Over"
On January 8, another caption read:
Back Out Front Beguiles Bandit Into
Arms Of Law" There have been others
of similar style lately. and many more
in other papers.
increasingly. our news reporters are
making stories Of crime vehicle for
gags. quips. puns and other witticisms.
For the young and unthinking, such
joking removes any idea Of wrongdoing
in committing crimes. Our youth do
not need encouragement to become
criminals. The Star, as an honest and
conscientious paper. should be above
such misleading habits, and should
oppose it in other papers.

fact that President Eisenhower did not,
in his maiden address to Congress, sub
NIT detailed solutions for specific
problems" on domestic issues. Obvious
ly, diagnosis Of the specific problems"
and the selection Of detailed solutions"
which will cure the manifold ills re-
sulting from liberal" bureacracy
which was 20 years in the building can
not be accomplished in two short weeks.
Also. The Star apparently deplores
the fact that the President merely sub
mitted his proposals with request for
appropriate legislation and mot as a
command" 1t is refreshing that Presi-
dent Eisenhower, holding in equal re-
spect our three independent branches
Of Government, advises, suggests or re-
quests the enactment of legislation
which he deems desirable instead of
assuming the role of king or potentate
and issuing commands to a suppliant
Congress.
Finally. The Star anticipates 'inevi-
table clashes between the legislative and
executive branches" On domestic issues
such clashes are not inevitable" if the
President and Congress execute their
respective functions in the light Of
