Poland is gradually making her place in ihi-. world as a self-supporting nation, ac cording to recent reports of allied ex perts in economics. Within the last few months the new republic has made rapid strides to ward straightening many difficulties-, in the opinion of the students of eco nomics, one of the principal fac'ov assisting in a balance in Poland's fn- vor being litjuidaton of the Uppe Silcsian matter which had been hang ing fire for nearly three years, thj settlement giving the Puh-s their own coal and from 10.000,000 to l-j,-000,000 tons annually for export. The population of I'oland is ut pioximately 30,000,000. While the American Relief Admin istration continues to feed some 500, 000 childion in the devastated area and some of the crowded industrial centers, it is planned to abandon t'-iv work altogether in the sring, as, w!'N good crops another season, the ex perts believe the government and the peo'de will be able to get along v 't out outside help The necessity of buying foreign ex change for foodstuffs, a situation which Poland faced from the begin ning, has almost passe.

Mr. Do Valera says darkly: "You may say the resolution means litoi- ally what it says." It Is not surprising, but a good many thoughtful people, Irish In cluded, will wish that, for a time lit least, well enough could be let alone. Why not wait until It i. proved that the present arrange ment Interferes with the full de velopment of the Irish people? To prove this or the contrary will be a slow process, but it might be given a fair trial. o public affairs is not some day in the future; it is right now. Cake's Hat in Ring?
