New Premier Speaks

Recently elected in succession to General Sikorski, Premier Witos gave vent to the peaceful policy of the new Polish Government.

The cardinal features of the Premier's speech: 1) Good relations with Great Britain, France, Italy. 2) Good relations with the United States, Belgium, Japan. 3) Good relations with Germany. 4) Genuine peace with Russia and Lithuania, despite Russia "upsetting the world concience" and Lithuania giving "incessant provocations." 5) The statement that "the establishment of rational relations between the States erected on the ruins of the Central Powers must be based on a coordination of Polish, Czecho-Slovakian and Yugoslavian policies toward Central European problems. The establishment of these relations, including as well the Baltic countries, will consolidate the peace of Europe."

The domestic policy of the Government is equally idealistic: reduction of expenses and taxes, wide social reforms, balancing of the budget.

Toward national minorities the Government promises not to be chauvinistic; toward the opposition, that it will not tolerate " illegal organization seeking to introduce force and terror into political struggles."
