The new Cabinet, called the Coun cil of Ministers, includes Mazow iecki, 11 Solidarity members, and a foreign minister independent but sympathetic to Solidarity. The Com munists have four seats. The Solidarity-aligned United Peasant Party holds four seats, and Solidarity’s other coalition partner, the Democratic Party, has three. The Communists, in addition to controlling the army and police, will retain considerable influence through President Wojciech Jaruzelski, a Communist. The new government also has promised allegiance to the Soviet-led Warsaw Pact military alii anCC> Still, Mazowiccki,once apolitical prisoner, promised an overhaul of Communist institutions in an elo quent speech that he was forced to interrupt for 45 minutes when he felt faint from exhaustion. He called for reforming the police and the justice system, liberalizing laws on associations, gatherings and censorship, creating a new demo cratic constitution, removing politi cal and ideological barriers to promo tion, giving universities full auton omy and battling “catastrophic” environmental pollution. The main focus was Poland’s economy. Mazowiccki said the ranks of the poor were growing and warned that production and living standards already lower than 10 years ago S likely to decline further. 8 ’ ^ "The new government will af, under the pressure that at any mn ment the construction of dcmoc^ that only just started can collansl under the economic crisis," he said He called for immediate steps to combat triple-digit inflation, includ ing tax reform, making the dotv convertible with Western currency and creating a stock exchange 1 Mazowiecki, a Solidarity newspa per editor who became the EaSt bloc’s first non-Communist prim, minister, rejected a past when the Communist government "wanted to rule not only over the lives but th* minds’’of Poles. e Nebraskan Editor Amy Edwards 472-1766 Managing Editor Jane Hlrt Assoc.
