POLISH PARLIAMENT

PILSUBSKI'S DENUNCIATION

REASON FOR RESIGNATION

LONDON, July 4

In an interview Marshal Rilsudski, formerly Premier of Poland, criticised tho Polish Parliamentary institutions with the utmost freedom. He said; “ I, the most popular man in Poland, had to resign, or, unable to control myself, I. would have struck and tramped on tho deputies, who talk for months on end, yell insults at each other, and, in fact, behave like blackguards and pigs. 1 could not have held out for another hour in an atmosphere of such boredom, whore even the flics would not tolerate the speeches,” he said. Marshal Pilsndski, says the Warsaw correspondent of ‘ Tho Times,’ added that the nation’s treatment of the President was viler and more base than would be any man’s treatment of his bondslave. The burden of tho Premiership lay in having a fixed occupation, of tending foundling babies, the loved and the caressed, the dirty and tho unloved, which Cabinet always passed on to him. It was his duty, to set his hands to masses of typewritten sheets, hot he had not the courage for fear that he would end in the madhouse

“ TJio Premier’s omnipotence disappears in a Hood of foolsscap, and amid a, multitude of foundlings, with only a noose left to hang himself.” he continued. “Tho deputies tell indecent stories, and behave asjf they were in a common alehouse. Every deputy has the right to shout- abuse and conduct himself like a pig.” Marshal Pilsndski vigorously denied that ill-health had caused his resignation.
