Page Z STALIN'S COLONIES By WILLIAM L. RYAN AP Foreign News Analyst The spark of liberty still glows in subjugated Poland. Many a Polish peasant risks his freedom and even his life to keep the spark aglow. Many a city dweller takes a long chance to give expression to his contempt | for the Communists who are Mos- cow’s willing tols. Against the might of Soviet arms, against an army run by Russian officers and a secret po- lice system which horieycombs the | nation with spies, the Polish re- sistance is pathetically weak. But it is there—and it lives in hope that some day it will have help.. For more than seven years Stal- in has been twisting the screws on Poland, transforming it into a So- ‘IMPROVEMENTS FOR KEY WEST ADVOCATED BY THE CITIZEN More Hotels and Apartments.

Aware of the feelings of the losers, The Citizen knows that it can’t say anything that can immediately ease their disappointment over having been defeated. That is something that time alone can wipe out, and time will attain that end, as it has attained it sfter every other election. But no time will be lost for victors or for losers to get back into stride in their businesses or professions, and the losers, as well as the winners, will help, whenever afford- ed the opportunity, to promote the interests of their com- munity. The most astonishing “thing about the gubernatorial race was the kind of campaign Alto Adams conducted. Before he began his campaign, the péople of the state would have been justified in believing that, as he had just stepped out of office as Chief Justice of the Florida Supreme Court, he would have conducted a campaign that befitted the dignity of that office. Instead, he came more virulent than any other man in the race, That point is aptly illustrated about that charge, bandied among the candidates, about the backing of the Warren administration. McCarty denied the charge, and let it go at that, but Adams not only denied it but attack- ed the administration, in speech after speech, and resort- ed to disgusting abuse of Chairman McKethan of the State Road Department. Not satisfied in attacking his opponents, took cracks at others who were not concerned in his race. In a radio talkin Jacksonville, he swept down to Key West to charge that Representative Bernie ©. Papy and Dan McCarty, when he was a representative, cooked up a scheme to put into effect in Florida the county unit of voting, similar to that in Georgia. McCarty denied the charge, and Papy said he was not connected with the be- he movement in any way.

The Kremlin has in- stalled a Soviet marshal with dou- ble Russian and Polish citizenship | as its viceroy. But with each new indignity, the ancient enmity of Poles for Russians burns more fiercely. Even the kids in the streets of Polish cities reflect sullen, bitter mockery for those who are Mos- cow’s willing tools. They sing: “Z tylu laty, z przodu laty, “Jestem synem demokraty.” It’s one of their own jibes di- rected at Communist promises. It means: “Some patches in front, some patches in back, I am the son of a democrat.” Kids still imitate American ways, to the rage of the party. They go to extremes to try to dress American style and act like Americans, and the party rants about “Western decadence.” There used to be American movies in Warsaw. Now there is nothing much but Soviet propa- ganda. The movie houses showing the Soviet films are almost empty, except when mass attendance is ordered by the party. Even-then, from the darkness of the movie | house comes jeers and catcalls at | Moscow propaganda. They are still resisting on the |farms. The stubborn Polish farm- ers shy away from collectiviza- tion. The government, fearing the consequences, must proceed slow- ly. To make a collective, old | houses and buildings are destroyed jand the peasants forced into the system. They are resisting in the forests and in the factories. A guess is that 60,000 persons are actively engaged in underground work in | the PAK (Polska Armia Krajowa, ; ROAK, a movement which makes There have been arrests, tri and executions, but still the ce of resistance go on, working in units of three in attempts to es. cape detection.

There had been reports that Hilary Minc, the Com- munists’ economic boss, was in trouble too, but he is still riding high, after bowing to Moscow’s unpopular measures. Although Poles suffered in the recent Polish currency reform, when the zloty was called nat the rate of one new for 100 cid, the standard of living still apparently is above the Soviet average, a con- dition the Soviets will not long tolerate. The effect of currency reform was to lower buying power, so that even with a wage rise, work- ers’ incomes actually were severe- ly cut. Many Poles still hope for a day of liberation. The hope is shared by exiled leaders. Stanisla Miko- lajezyk, former Premier and head | an exile in the United States.
