Poles Slow to Fight for Kander in New Polish Kingdom
Geneva reports neutral and German visitors relay that Poles in the newly proclaimed kingdom show little enthusiasm to enlist in the Polish army under Austro German banners. Only a few hundred volunteers, mainly university students, are said to have come forward, while two army corps are not forming. Polish workers and peasants reportedly refuse arms, and German manpower gaps are partly filled by Poles seeking work in munition factories or farms.
