Thomas Woodrow Wilson, twelve feet high, stood in the centre of Poznan's municipal park last week pointing to a granite map of Poland with an enormous outstretched arm which promises to be a great convenience to Polish pigeons. Mrs. Wilson, Poland's President Ignacy Moscicki, U. S. Ambassador John North Willys, Auguste Cardinal Hlond, Mr. & Mrs. Bernard Mannes Baruch and Daughter Belle piled wreaths about Statue Wilson's ankles. Out by the gate was a smaller bust of Democrat Wilson's faithful lieutenant Herbert Clark Hoover. President Hoover, now unalterably Republican, sent a message...

...grand Paderewski jamboree. Dictator Pilsudski and Pianist Paderewski (officially tending his sick wife in Switzerland) both considered it wise to absent themselves. So did General Pershing who had been invited. At the last minute, lest the Paderewskites should stage some really serious demonstration, Dictator Pilsudski sent puppet President Moscicki to the unveiling. He drove with Mrs. Wilson and the Baruch family through streets of cheering citizens. As President Moscicki came abreast of rank after rank of Poznan citizens most of them shouted: "Long live Paderewski!", a few "Long live Mrs. Wilson," none shouted "Long live President Moscicki." The President...

...under the Polish Flag. Simultaneously, Warsaw was host to the East European Agrarian Conference. These commendable commercial pursuits, however, were vastly overshadowed by the political activities of blustering, oath-some Dictator Josef Pilsudski. Last April all the Dictator's shouting and all of his men-including President Ignatz Moscicki-could not prevail upon Parliament to make his brother Jan Prime Minister (TIME, April 7). The best Dictator Pilsudski could do was to get the job for one of his "colonels," Valerian Slavek. Last week he grew weary of eternal bickering and backbiting from Parliament, principally because its parties could...

...Ignatz Moscicki (who was for a time a Swiss citizen and therefore changed his Polish "Ignacy" to "Ignatz") did not re-sign last week, and walrus-whiskered, swashbuckling, often eccentric Marshal Josef Pilsudski continued morosely to dictate. About once a year he makes some striking public utterance, and for the past two years it has been a variant of his celebrated saying...
