RIPE FOR REVOLT
BELIEF IN POLAND HOPES OF THE FASCISTS (By Telegraph—Press Association—Copyright) LONDON, Nov. 22. The correspondent of tho Daily Herald, Mr. Al Easterman '.Labour; in a lengthy dispatch from Warsaw, says that the leaders of the movement make no bones about their intentions to turn Poland into a totalitarian Slate on the Hitler model, with a full Nazi programme adjusted to suit Polish conditions, even to the destruction of Polish Jewry , by mass expulsion and race outlawry Poland, he declares, already has its Goebbels in Colonel Koc, and behind him is Colonel Miejinski, a personal political friend of Colonel Beck, the present Foreign Minister. The army is regarded as safe for a Fascist bureaucracy, and one in seven o£ the population is certain to line up. A militarised police force is already in Fascist hands. The mass of the people, deprived of freedom by edicts, is in a mood for revolt, but disorganised and slow to act. These are conditions which the reactionary elements consider ripe for a Fascist coup.
