HC Deb 29 May 1919 vol 116 c1386
6. Captain ORMSBY-GORE

asked whether M. Paderewski has resigned the Premiership of Poland; if so, on what grounds; and who has succeeded him?

Mr. HARMSWORTH

The answer to the first and second parts of the question asked by the hon. and gallant Member is that M. Paderewski tendered his resignation, and is reported to have done so because the Polish Diet, disregarding the assurances given by him to the Allied and Associated Powers, insisted on a further advance into Eastern Galicia. The answer to the third part of the question is that the resignation of M. Paderewski was not accepted by the Polish Government.

Colonel WEDGWOOD

Is the Polish Government at present directed by a famous anti-Semite?
