Warsaw Faces Danger with Lively Streets in Warsaw
Dispatch from Warsaw notes civic guards swelling to 20,000 and a population of about 209,000 having fled to interior Russia. While the governor general stays, Russians withdraw with orders to destroy only under military necessity. Poles largely loyal to Russia, and autonomy promises bolster allegiance as provinces face looting and requisition warnings. A separate tale recounts a Canadian soldier’s reunion hopes and a trench survival amid France’s battles, with news of a painterly social contagion described by a Progressive Farmer editor.
