Anderson Says
Poles Abused
Russian forces in Europe would
do well to observe the American
Army of Occupation in opera*-
lion.
So says Dr. C.. S. Anderson,
professor of agricultural educa
tion at the,College who, as re
quirements and supply specialist
for-the United Nations'Relief and
Rehabilitation Administration,
spent six months in post-war Po
land.
“Russian forces antagonize the
people with curfews and.a lot of
asinine -regulations, many of
them petty,” he- reported. “Some
people in Poland now feel life
under 1 the Nazi, regime was bet
ter.”
Dr. Anderson also said there
was widespread looting and plun
dering by Russian troops in Po
land.
' Russian .soldiers drive herd
after herd of cattle to the Soviet
border, according to Dr. Ander
son, claiming they come from
Germany. But the Poles insist
“they are ours.”
Sewing machines and all kinds
of electrical equipment, such as
refrigerators, irons, arid toasters,
were popular among the Soviet
looters, he added.
.Farm machinery, horses, wrist
watches, beds, mattresses and
pieces of furniture were taken
and shipped to Russia, too, as
“German loot,” the Penn State
educator found.
Many Warsaw shops are board
ed, shut at night, much as are the
windows in Times Square for
New Year’s Eve celebrations, Dr.
Apderson pointed out.
He recalled how he left his
watch with a Polish jeweler to
have a -crystal replaced. The
jeweler refused to keep the
watch overnight, warning that it
may not be there the next day if
he left it in his shop.
“What can we do?” asked one
shopkeeper. “They are our lib
erators.”
The present government in Po
land is composed largely of Rus
sian officials since the Soviets,
like the Nazis, were unable to
And “Quislings” among the Poles,
according to Dr. Anderson. ■
“T-he Poles are the most na
tionalistic people I met in all
Europe,” he added. “They’d
rather die than be ‘Quislings.’ ”
Many Poles regard the present
government as a temporary one
and it’s not uncommon, Dr. And
erson,says, to have them whisper:
“When are you Americans real
ly going to liberate us?” *
