FDR Accused of Selling Poland Out by Polish Congress
PHILADELPHIA UP The Polish American Congress president Rozmarek charged that President Roosevelt sold Poland down the Volga. He said Roosevelt assured him he would back Polish independence after the war and spoke of timing regarding Siadan. Rozmarek cited talks before and after Yalta with Stalin and Churchill, noting Roosevelt’s health and hope to rebuild postwar world while seeds of war were sown at Yalta. He attended displaced persons meetings and spoke with Fruman and Attlee on Polish independence. The three day convention adopted resolutions, elected officers, and heard Gov. Coolidge attack Polish government in exile. Attorney General Clark warned of arrests of Poles at the U S Information Bureau in Warsaw but said the U S would spread the truth.
