Elections in Polish Upper Silesia

The recent General Election in Poland was followed last Sunday by elections for the Seym in Polish Upper Silesia. Reports of terrorism against the German minority have come in from so many quarters that Germania, the moderate German Catholic paper, suggests that German-Polish relations have not been so bad for years. The report of the German Consul at Kattowitz has caused the German Government to make represen- tations to the League Council under the special German- Polish Agreement, which in certain respects is identical with the Minorities Treaty. It is only right to say that proceedings have been taken against the persons accused of the most glaring outrages.
