...respect. Snapped the Widow Pilsudski last week: "No one believes Hitler's speeches of good will. That man pays lip homage to my husband and surveys around him the destruction of the Marshal's life work. . . . Poland fought to the last. If it had not been for Russia's stab in the back we could have held the Germans. ... I am proud of the way in which my country behaved in the hours of danger."
