POLISH RESOLUTION AT THE SOCIAL CO111ISSION
OF TBE U _-W O.. ASSEiMBLY
The Social Commission of the UNO Assembly has considered the draft
resolution submitted by, the Polish delegation on discri.;nination applied by sane
countries to immigrant workers and D.P.s.
In many countries and among them, in the United States, France,
England and Canada,irmnigrant workers receive 3o%G or even 50% lower wages than
the local workers. As a rule, in Canada, the immigrant workers have to work
longerhours than the local ones.
The Polish draft resolution states that discrimination applied by
many States to immigrant workers, and particularly to workers recruited among
the Refugees and D.P.s, is inconsistent with the principles of the United Nations.
Therefore., the Polish delegation moves that the Assembly instruct the
countries belonging to the United Nations Organizations
1, To promulgate a ban on the discrimination if immigrant workers
and to treat them on an equal footing with their own citizens.
2. To guarantee to immigrant workers possibilities of sending their
savings to the countries of their origin. .
3. To secure for the tmnigrant workers, the right to return to their
hands at the expense of the State to which they have emigrated.
1, To settle the terms on which the immigrant workers are employed
and onlistcd exclusively on the basis of bi-lateral agreements between the
countries of inmiigration and emigration and concluded with the co-operation of
the two countries, Trade Unions.
During the debatesp Dr.Altman, the Polish delegates delivered a
speech in which he stated that the very persons who apply discriminatory
practices deny most clamourously the concrete facts cited by the Polish delegation
.xoting facts and names, the Polish delegate stated that in France
foreign workers are punished for participation in strikes, and that France puts
difficulties in the way of the Polish workers' repatriation and uses chicanery,
in connection with Polish children going home for their holidays.

PREIvfER OF TIE GEEJv1AN DEMOCRJ TIC REPUBLIC
INTERVIEWED BY POLISH JOURNALISTS
Premier Otto Grotewohl received a delegation of Polish journalists
paying a visit to Berlin.
The Polish journalists asked Premier Grotewohl how public opinion in
Germany had received the creation of the German Democratic Republic, Ia Government.
Answer: In the whole Soviet Occupation Zone as well as in Western
Germany the progressive and democratic forces welcomed the creation of our German
Democratic Republic in a most warm and friendly manner, taking it that, in this {
way, the front of peace and democracy has been reinforced by one more State. Twenty
four hours after the creation of the Government, on the ..ctivists,Day, representa-
tives of the Government addressed many thousands of workers in factories and mines.
It was a manifestation of close harmony between the Government and the German
nation. All the ministers stater] unanimously that the clause of the Governmental
declaration referring explicitly to the recognition of the Odra-Nyssa frontier as
the frontier of peace, met, at all these meetings, with unanimous applause (mit
ungettiltem Beifall) on the part of the working population.
Reactionary elements, especially in Western Germany, as well as their
Anglo-American protectors are, naturally, against our government. But we do not
govern in the interest of reactionaries but against it. Neither do we govern to
support the Anglo-Americans;' aims and their war policy, but in the none of in-
dependent Germany's unity and for the sake of peace.
estion; What are the plans of the German Democratic Government for
.the near future?
Answer: Wo. have expounded clearly our plans in the Government's Declaration,
in the field of internal policy - the raising of the living standard of the
population by carrying out and surpassing the Two-Year Plan, which will be
accoapained by many moves intended to raise iur economic life and our standard of
living to the pre-war level and even higher.
In doing so, the Government will base itself on the active co-operation
of the working population without which the German Democratic Republic could not.
progress. Whether we shall succeed in rebuilding Germany, by our own efforts
depends on the working people.
Therefore, the Government will not be isolated, they will not confine
their activities to their desks, they will be a?government of action, co-operating
most closely with the People's masses.
We rely on our own forces and on international solidarity, on co-operation.
with the Soviet Union with the People's Democratic Poland and other countries of
People;s Democracy and not on Anglo-American tips. In order to show the successes
we have already achieved on the road of a peace policy , I should like, above all,
to point out our youth. During the greatest, in recent years, manifestation orga-
nized in Berlin, on the day of Wilhelm Pieclc's election to the presidency, several
hundreds of thousands of youth greeted the newly elected President with enthusiasm
and swore loyalty to the policy represented by him.,

Thanks to the school reform, and to the gigantic educational work
among young pe ploy the yogith who grow up in the German Democratic Republic
are getting rid of. national pride and chauvinism, to which they paid hanage
in the past, cif Hitlorite brutality, of hostile feelings towards other nations,
especially towards the Slav nations. The Free German Youth Association,
numbering 1 million r..e ~'acru, between 14 and 2o year:.. of age, the 7oo,ooo
Pioneers (Children's Organization) are being brought up in the spirit of friend-
ship among nations and in the spirit of peace. This is a valuable contribution
to the building of international peace, it is the corner stone of our work for
peace. We have won a considerable part of German youth and we are going to .win
for this idea the whole German youth.
question: How does the Government intend realizing their principles
with regard to the Gel^nan-Polish relations?
Answcr: I should'like to declare in an unequivocal manner that the
Government of the German Democratic Republic has nothing in common nor does it
wish ever to have anything in common with the anti-Polish policy of former German
governments, no matter whether it was a Monarchy, the Weimar Republic or the
Hitlerite govornxnt.
An imperialistic aggressive Germany must never again attack Poland,
the Soviet Union or any other nation in the world. One for ever we want to put
an end to the. gang nach Osten" policy, so that the Polish Nation need no longer
live in the ago.-old fear of German militarists and imperialists,' expansion,
whose dire result was the massacre of I/4 of the Polish Nation.
That is wh; r we think, as I have already clearly foxmulated in ray
Government beclaration, that the Odra and Nyssa frontier is the frontier of peace,.
and we consider everyone, who calls for the revision of this frontier, to be an
enemy to the Geiiari arit''. the Polish nations and a warmonger. We fully support the
peace policy led by the great Stalin, the peace policy of the Socialist world
power, the Soviet Union, on whose mighty shoulders rests the task of saving
humanity from, war'.
Stalin's cable to.the democratic Government of Germany has made it
quite clear to us Germans, what?rble Germany can play in the struggle for.peace.
The German--Polish agreement is one of the decisive elements of this,
world peace policy.
The People's Poland taking part in the resolutions passed by the
Warsaw Conference, tog:;ther with the Soviet Union and other People's Democracies,
has assumed an sand towards German's unity, based on the Potsdam
resolutions.
We hope that we shall soon establish close relations. There is already
in Berlin a.Po1i. h Military Mission and a commercial representation of the
Polish Covornmont. Wo maintain most friendly. relations with these representations.
x44 present, where truly democrat:; cc and peace-loving forces have taken over power,
I should li.ie to express my hopes that the relations between the Polish ancd. the
German Governments will become closer.'
W We also ardently wish to extend: steadily our mutual exchange of goods,
i.e. to follow a trade policy flowing not fran the principles of imperialistic
trade, but from the needs of our two nations.
On your return to your country, please, greet all our friends, nc
particularly those with whom I'am personally acquainted. I have not had, as yet,
the pleasure of visiting Poland since l945.. However, I think I shall be ai;lo one
day to se for myself with whet enthusiasm the Polish Nation 'had set a boui.: ?40
overcome the dreaclf'ul consequences of the war. I have boon told many thing; s about
the magnificent rebuilding of Warsavr. They are still rian.,y ruins in our county,
but we shall iianage to get rid of them. We are very hopeful- and we '-now we can
rely on our workers.
