A Product of General Food a Polish War Veterans In Italy Suspicious Of Repatriation Offer By the A**ociated Pres* | ANCONA, Italy, April 11.—Vet-1 erans of the Polish 2nd Army are mulling over the Polish government’s offer of repatriation recently an nounced by British Foreign Min j ister Ernest Bevin, but they are not i hurrying to hit the trail for home. Most of them, judging by six hours of interviews with members of three battalions stationed near Ancona, are eyeing the offer suspiciously. They suggest that if Gen. Wladi slaw Anders army is to be demobi lized, its members should be settled : elsewhere than in Poland, at least for the time being, i Some of them who have met Canadian troops and learned to like 'them, say: "Why not Canada?" Others gladly would go to Chicago where, they have heard there are a million of their countrymen. | Nearly all say “anywhere but Po-' jland.” They would like to go home | but “not,” as many of 50 men in terviewed repeated over and over, “while the Russians are there.” Many of them had been in Rus sian jails. Some said they did not know7 why they were sentenced. Others said they were sentenced be cause they were members of the j regular Polish Army. Some served two years of sentences ranging up to 15 years, frequently commuted '■ from original death sentences. | Of those interviewed, only six pro cessed willingness to go. All were ! driven by the desire to see families i they had not heard from for two or three years, and all expressed “a ■ hope for the best." Large Tracts Available For Returning Soldiers WARSAW. April 11 OPi.—'Twenty thousand Polish soldiers have come back—and more are coming—to be demobilized and start life anew in Poland. The government is assigning large tracts of lands in former German territories to those soldiers who want to farm. Agricultural workers are desperately needed, for those territories mean that Poland has approximately 3,000.000 more acres that should be cultivated to help tide the nation over from harvest time until the spring of 1947. The government supplies each set tler with quantities of seeds and loans tractors and other mechanized equipment. The average farm ranges from 15 to 30 acres. Many demobilized soldiers re turned from the United Kingdom say that they are permitted to go wherever they wish, but that they receive no demobilization pay and must depend on whatever savings they brought from England or Scot land. They are required to turn in their arms before leaving the ports. Demobilized soldiers get prefer Top Dollor Loons on All Valuables ! ALBERT "Bill" HAROLD L.
