Passing the residence of Polish Roman Catholic Primate Archbishop Jozef Glemp, the marchers paused, hoping that the church leader might appear, then sang a hymn beginning "Return us our free fatherland." Finally, farther along their route, they encountered opposition: massed militia units with dozens of vehicles armed with water cannons. There was no clash. The protesters turned away, hurling insults at the militia ("Gestapo," "Whom do you serve?") as they walked toward the Vistula River. There the march broke up. Said one young worker triumphantly: "That was exactly what we wanted. There was no violence. It was a real morale...
...officials and sympathizers of the independent trade union Solidarity. Until now, little has been known about the treatment of the 3,600 who, according to the government, are still held in about 40 camps around the country. Among the few visitors they have been permitted to receive is Archbishop Jozef Glemp, the Primate of Poland, who is said to have traveled to all the camps.

Glemp, who returned to Warsaw last week with Archbishops Franciszek Cardinal Macharski of Cracow and Henryk Gulbinowicz of Wroclaw, seemed genuinely happy to be back on his native soil. Even the usually dour Macharski smiled broadly and told reporters at Okecie Airport: "Let us all be optimists. Things are not all that...
...people, beatings, the internment of many thousands of people in prisons and camps." With those searing words, more than 100 prominent Polish intellectuals and artists last week denounced the martial law regime of General Wojciech Jaruzelski in a petition sent to the nation's parliament and Archbishop Jozef Glemp, the Roman Catholic primate...
