“IRON CHANCELLOR”
BISMARCK MONUMENTS TO GO. All Bismarck’s monuments put up by the Germans in Polish Upper Silesia are to be destroyed. At Katowice, the main city of Polish Silesia, the town council has ordered the breaking up of the stone monument of the “Iron Chancellor,” which was erected 30 years ago when the Germans ruled that part of the country. A similar decision has been taken by local authorities in other places of Polish Silesia, where Bismarck monuments were put up years ago. Bismarck’s endeavours to Germanise the Poles attach unpleasant memories to these souvenirs.
