Poland on Wav to Prosperity. ** ’States Visitor Major Who Served ag Com mercial Adviser to Pader ewski Visits Wife’s Parents Here. Maj. w. I. Shuman, who has been visiting his wife’s parents, Mr. and Mrs. F. I*. Salmon, states that Poland is entering upon an era of great de velopment. He was major of infan try during the war and then was en gaged as commercial adviser to Ig nace Paderewski, the first premier of ths new Poland. •’Paderewski, who is now In tilts country, said the major, “was a real patriot in the hour of his country’s great need. I know that he spent practically all of his personal fortune, amounting to more than $2,000,000, to help his native land. "I have made five trips to Poland since the war and I observe a steady improvement in economic conditions. Unemployment is decreasing. The people are thriving in the face of low currency. The purchasing power of the Polish mark is strong. Agricul ture is the chief industry and the tex tile mills are next. These mills are being operated to full capacity. The city of Lod* Is the Manchester of Poland. The Poles excel In engineer ing and in finance. Many are highly educated. \ “The people have been, suppressed for.100 years by the Germans on one and the Russians on the other. Under its own constitutional govern- • ment Poland is going ahead with nor mal and natural expansion. Their national governing body is the diet which Is composed of representatives elected from districts. The personnel of the diet elected last November rep resents three general divisions of the pople and, Is. therefore, quite repre sentative. The recent assassination of the president, in my opinion, did not have political significance. It was the deed of a fanatic. , “Poland is truly grateful to America for aid given to alleviate hunger and disease incident to the recent war. There are many opportunities now in Poland for American business. Pol and is going to extend its trade illa tions with the world. They are rising to meet their new privileges and re sponsibilities.” Presbyterians Seek to Buy Charles Rosewater Site First Presbyterian church, at a meeting Friday night, appointed a committee to raise $50,000 to pruchase the Charles Rosewater property, which adjoins the church property on the west at Thirty-fifth und Farnam streets. Tills consists of 95x130 feet. •'If this can be accomplished, no doubt a deal will be consummated, said Rev. Edwin H. Jenks, pastor. Miss Jessie Millard has offered $60, 000 as a gift for further building pur poses, contingent upon raising money to purchase tiie Rosewater property. More Sunday school space, a social hull and a better gymnasium, are ^c^adjittons contemplated. Man Captures Intruder After Chase From Home E. It. Garrison, 6008 Center street, Omaha air mall flyer.
