  • General Władysław Sikorski As a Prime Minister of Polish Government in Exile
    Humanities and Social Sciences 2016 HSS, vol. XXI, 23 (2/2016), pp. 9-32 April - June Arkadiusz ADAMCZYK1 GENERAL WŁADYSŁAW SIKORSKI AS A PRIME MINISTER OF POLISH GOVERNMENT IN EXILE. HONEST DEMOCRAT OR HEIR OF AUTHORITARIANISM The way in which Sikorski and his policy are remembered and judged by the vast majority of Poles owes much to the legend that has surrounded him since his tragic and mysterious death and has little to do with his real accomplishments.Sikorski succeeded in passing himself off as true democrat by throwing into doubt achievements of the Piłsudski adherents and by contesting the political system they created. In truth, the Prime Minister did nothing to introduce a democratic style of exercising power. To make things worse, in the exercise of power he quite deliberately made use of the same instruments once made use of by his predecessors, thus abusing it the same way they did. One is tempted to think that Sikorski was unable to liberate himself from the influence exerted on him by Józef Piłsudski. As a Prime Minister he failed to elaborate a model of exercising power different from that established by Piłsudski whom Sikorski admired and hated at the same time. In truth, he may have considered the model elaborated by Piłsudski as ideal worth copying. But the so- called July crisis of 1940 when there took place a clash between Sikorski and Piłsudski adherents which resulted in debilitating both sides of this conflict made it necessary for Sikorski to rely for the exercise of power on cooperation with traditional political parties.

He was born into a landowning family, did his military service in the tsarist army, and escaped from Bolshevik captivity. In independent Poland, he did not continue his military career but worked in the state administra- tion as an engineer responsible for road works. He continued his engineer’s work during the Polish-Bolshevik war. Later, he managed the quarries in Janowa Dolina in Volhynia and made them a model enterprise on a European scale. He paid the high- est price for his attitude to life. Until now many aspects of his activity have been un- known. Only the archive search in Ukraine made it possible to gain knowledge about views and details of his socio-political activity. The research employed a biographical 2020, nr 8 method based on the analysis of personal documents.

  • Wheat Studies of the Food Research Institute
    WHEAT STUDIES OF THE FOOD RESEARCH INSTITUTE VOL. VII, NO. 9 (Price $1.00) AUGUST 1931 THE INTERNATIONAL WHEAT CONFERENCES DURING 1930-31 Low wheat prices have provoked distress in agriculture in all countries in which wheat is a prominent crop. In consequence a widespread and intensive revival of agrarian agitation has occurred. Higher wheat prices are sought. The' net wheat-importing countries are in position to raise domes­ tic wheat prices through tariffs and other restrictive regula­ tions; Germany, France, and Italy furnish the outstanding illustrations. The net wheat-exporting countries have at their disposal as instruments for the raising of wheat prices only direct subsidy or indirect bonus, and these have not been applied to any significant extent. In consequence, producers' prices of wheat in the wheat-exporting countries present an extreme contrast with producers' prices in the importing countries which have established high protection. The wheat-surplus-producing countries have held nu­ merous conferences to promote collective action for the pur­ pose of raising wheat prices. Sixteen of such conferences are here reviewed. Broadly stated, the movement for con­ certed action in the international marketing of wheat has developed into a quota plan, which was formally presented at the recent London conference of wheat-exporting coun­ tries. The quota plan for marketing wheat would represent essentially the sale of wheat by negotiation, largely under governmental direction, which would tend to be political. At the London conference only the United States desired a continuation of international marketing of wheat upon es­ tablished grain exchanges. Under the opposition of the dele­ gation of the United States, the quota plan failed of official acceptance.

  • Smelting Industry in the Second Republic
    Anna Jarosz-Nojszewska * SMELTING INDUSTRY IN THE SECOND REPUBLIC e rst blast furnaces in Poland appeared in the 17th c. (with traditional smelting dating back to ancient times). Up to the rst half of the 19 th c., the largest iron smelting works region in Poland was located in so-called the Old Poland Basin, which enjoyed its greatest period of splendour in the rst half of the century. At the time, under the direction of Stanisław Staszic, the realization of the project assuming the creation of a cluster of metallurgy works on the banks of the Kamienna river commenced. e plants in the cluster located on the upper course of the river were to supply raw materials, mid-course – semi-nished products, and in the lower course, nished products. In the second half of the 19 th c. as coking coal was used to melt the iron, Upper Silesia became the largest smelting works region. e development of smelting works in this region began with the launch of a blast furnace in 1796 built by J. Baildon in Gliwice. 1. At the beginning of the 19 th c. the smelting industry in Poland started to evolve from a primitive industry into a modern one with advanced technology, geared for mass production. In 1802 the rst blast furnace was built to smelt the raw material on coking coal in the Royal Steelworks; in 1833 the puddling of iron came into practice; in 1865 the Bessemer process was introduced into steel smelting; in 1884 the production of omas’ steel began, around 1900 the open hearth system came into use, and around 1912 electric furnaces were introduced in steelworks in Poland 2.
