East Prussia and Silesia have determ

free from Prussia and Germany if
any portions of those states are al
lowed to go to Poland. He said the
inhabitants of the three states are
bitter at Germany, claiming that she
had "deserted them and swapped and
bestowed away portions of those
states for the sake of others."
