"Organic Disgust"
A sudden squall in the turbulent Polish Sejm (Parliament) flung out Kasimir Bartel as Prime Minister of Poland last week. Professor Juljan Szymanski, amiable oculist-editor, strove valiantly to form another Cabinet, at the request of President Ignacy Moscicki. The proceedings infuriated Poland's Dictator, Marshal Josef Pilsudski, whose official position is merely that of Minister of War.
"Every Pole is aware of my organic disgust with the methods and works of parliaments as a whole and the Polish
Sejm particularly,"*he wrote in an official bulletin. "I invented the Sejm in New Poland, and therefore the Deputies, and I must say the Deputy is one of the meanest acquisitions of reborn Poland.
"One of the peculiarities of the Deputies is that they make a hobby of inventing calumnies, not even sparing the wives and children of those whom they hate. . . . They do not realize what honor is and dignity does not exist for them. People devoted to me have asked my permission to shoot M. Trampczynski [Parliamentarian leader] and other miscreants, and when I refused them they have committed suicide."
*Less than a year ago Marshal Pilsudski thumped a table, roared ''The Polish Sejm . . . I call a prostitute."
