Poles Suffer Because Russia
Takes Food, Ships, Machines

lnconSpicuouS. They are in the
offices Of the Polish Ministry Of
Shipping. and in the manage
ment of shipyards., They are
there to keep an eye on pro-
duction and pick out what is
best for Russia.
It sometimes happens that q
new ship built for the Polish
shipping line is directed to the
Soviet Union at the last moment:
the Russians liked it. Or newly
installed machines are suddenly
taken of it. to be put on another
ship which will be delivered to
the Soviets Immediately. There
were even cases when ships built
for Poland in foreign shipyards,
for example in Denmark, were
taken over by the Russians before
they few a Polish flag even once.
Most difficult to bear, however,
is the knowledge that enormous
quantities Of food which we in
Poland have produced out Of our
own soil and with our own hands,
swell the bulk Of our so-called
exports to Russia. while we in
Poland go undernourished and
can scarcely afford meat once in
a few days.
This can hardly be a secret,
since at any time some z or 8
Soviet ships can be seen in the
harbors of Gdansk and Gdynia.
loading food and Polish coal
from Silesia. Most of these ships
are ex-Liberty ships.
Soviets Export Fertilizer.
Most of these ships arrive in
Gdynia empty. some with car
goes Of fertilizers. which seem to
be the main item of Soviet ex-
ports to Poland. Recently a few
of them came carrying Soviet
grain. But this was unloaded in
the Polish ports to be loaded
again on ships going to East
Germany.
These ships lie in our harbors
every day. to be seen by every
body. Thus, every day Polish
sugar, grain, meat and coal leave
our shores before our very eyes,
as another contribution to the
power Of the Soviet Union.
People joke about this situa-

ton. but these jokes q malicious
and there is bad blood in them.
Here Is one which I heard in
Gdynia: What should Poland's
Communist President Beirut do
to feed the population properly?
The answer is: First, he
should close the Eastern frontier
Of Poland and thus save enough
food to feed 10 million people.
Then he should open the West
ern frontier. and 10 million peo-
pie will Immediately leave the
country. and there will remain
enough food for the rest. :
Apart from the big mass ex-
ports. there are always "individ-
ual exports" From the Soviet
ships, Russian marine officers
descend upon Polish shops. They
have the right to buy everything
in the shop for rubles. at an Of
fetal exchange rate extremely
advantageous to them. They
buy everything they can find:
Luxury food. textiles, clothing,
shoes, things which an ordinary
man in Poland cannot afford. I
have often seen them in the
Gdynia streets, carrying bulky
suitcases back to their ships.
Often they bring with them Rus
sian radio sets and Russian-made
Leicas to trade on the black mar
ket and thus get more money for
their purchases.
Russian Ships Dirty.
Soviet seamen, however, have
nothing to trade with. They
walk around our coastal towns
in groups. never alone, scarcely
speaking to anybody. They do
not go to cafes or restaurants
and seem to have none of the
interests which usually belong
to sailors. Most of their fee
time they play chess.
While Soviet seamen seem
clean and properly dressed, their
ships are in an indescribable
state. They are undoubtedly the
dirtiest in the world. and are
permeated by a stink of half
rotten fish which seems to be the
main food Of the crews.
I remember a remark which
an American correspondence
do not know his name-made in
my hearing. He Travelled on board
my ship a few years back; he
spoke German and talked to the
crew a little. At Kiel we sighted
a Soviet ship passing by: a great
hulk with paint peeling off in
places. with some unoccupied
sailors lolling around in negli-
gent poses on q messy deck. The
