Notes
3.. The Polish word "instancja" for which there is no direct 50X14-11
'English iquivalent (except in a legal context as in "court Of
first instance"), has been translated throughout this.report
'broadly as "authority". . From internal evidence it would appear,
,that the term "instancja partyjna" or "Party authority' is used
to denote more precisely a Party Committee at any level, and it
.is used to distinguish Party authorities of this sort from, on
the one hand, "organizacje partyjne" or "Party organizations",
by which are meant the Basic Party Organizations or POPS
5Cdstawowe organizacje partyjnil, and, on the other hand, laPs
,5omisje kontroli partyjneg or Party Control Commissions. It
'would appear further that the term lovers both the full
Committee, meeting in plenary session, and the Committee
Executive 5gzekutyw7.
4., The Polish word "pierwiastkowy" which means literally
"radical", has been translated in this report throughout as
"original". It would appear that by the term "sprawy
pierwiastkowe" or "original cases" are meant cases of first
instance as opposed to appeal cases.

1. The Fourth Congress of the .Party is approaching, we are
entering a period of pre-Congress discussions.
2. . The problem of purifying the ranks of the Party is one of
the tasks of the Party. This Problem has always been the focal
point of the attention of Party, Control Commissions at all levels
and of Party authorities LThstancjg. "The Party", it is
stated in the Theses adopted by the KC for the Fourth Party
Congress, "should constantly c:eanse itself of alien and
fortuitous elements, but should not lose people who are honest
and devoted to the People's Government". In successive issues
of the Bulletin, we have been raising this problem, pointing to
the necessity for an objective examination of the cases of Party

members based on the opinions of the entire Party organizations,
to the abolition of the practice whereby the cases of Party
members are examined direct by Party authorities outside the
Party organizations, to the necessity of developing continuous
prophylactic-educational and preventive work in the Party
organizations, and thus to such principles of Party adjudication
5rzecznictw7 as ITeduce to the minimum the possibility of
making unjustifiediParty deoisions and judgments. As pointed
out in the Theses it will be necessary to continue to devote
attention to this problem in the Party organizations and
authorities.
3. The Bulletin has also raised, among other things, the
problem of excessive numbers of strikings-off from the Party of
workers and peasants. This Undoubtedly exerts an influence on
the shaping of the social composition of the Party. On this
matter, the Theses of the PZPR for the Fourth Party Congress
express themselves is follows:, "....The social composition of
the Party ranks has not undergone any significant change,
particularly as regards the proportion of workers and peasants.
A number of Party organizations and authorities do not show a
proper sense of responsibility for the correct regulation of the
social composition of the Party. Party authorities and
organizations should analyse more thoroughly the strikings-off
of workers and peasants from the Party and should counteract the
excessive and unjustified fluidity of the Party ranks."
4. In the period since the Third Congress of the PZPR, we have
published ten CKKP Bulletins dedicated to the problems of Party
adjudication. The tenth issue of the Bulletin contains a
report on the activities of the CKKP in 1963, approved by the
Plenum of the CKKP which was

the phenomena which have emerged in the field of Party
adjudication and to point out certain tendencies forming in this
sphere.
6. Issuing the tenth number of the Bulletin before the Fourth
Congress of the PZPR, it is our wish that the problems raised' in
it will assist to a certain degree the discussions on the
problems contained in the Theses of the Central Committee of the
PZPR for the Fourth Party Congress.
I. Report of the CKKP for 1963
7. Submitting the report to the CKKP'Plenum, it is our desire
to draw attention to the basic directions and tendencies which
have taken place in the Party adjudication of laPs of all
levels, Party authorities and Basic Party Organizations.
This assessment appears necessary on account of the further.
work of the KKIPs, and the approaching Party Congress.
9., In the Report, we wish to focus the main attention on the
implementation of the directives of the Plenum of the KC of the
Party, the decisions of the Plenum of the CKKP of March, 1962,
and, the recommendations'of the First Secretary of the KC PZPR,
Comrade.Wladyslaw GOMULKA, contained in his speech at the
Plenum of the CKDIP.
10.: Before I proceed to discuss the above problems, I shall
dwell for a moment on the statistical data describing the
development of the Party from the organizational point of view.
Organizational development of the Party
11. In 1963, 142,946 Candidates were accepted into the Party.
Of these, 67,671, i.e. 47.3%, were workers; 17,576, i.e. 12.3%,
were peasants; and 52,137, i.e. 36.5%, were white-collar
workers. Among the new intake in the latter class, there is a
considerable number of engineersi:technicians, teachers and
.../economists.

economists.
12. During the same period, 40,768 persons were expelled and
strut* off the Party records, oz.,. about 9% more than in 1962.
But in fact 34,045 persons were struck off the Party records,
while 6,723 persons were expelled from the Party. There was
thus .only an increase in the number of persons struck off, while
there was a fall in the number expelled from the Party.
.13! As in previous years, white-collar workers constitute the
largest group among those expelled from the Party while among
those struck off workers form the largest group.
14.. The highest proportion of expulsions in relation to the
number of Party members and candidates was found in work
co-operatives, trade and building, and the lowest in industry.
The most strikingp-off occurred in work co-operatives, building,
agriculture and forestry.
15. As in previous years, the highest number of persons, namely
.3,094, i.e. 460, were expelled for financial abuses, theft and
bribery. In this group, white-collar workers predominate:
1,828 persons, of whom 89 hold.: leading positions as directors of
factories and institutions. The second highest group comprises
those expelled from the Party for immoral behaviour and
'drunkenness. 1,584 persons, i.e. 23.60 of the total, were
expelled for offences of this sort. While in the group of
persons expelled for ginanciag abuses there was a predominance
of white-collar workers, the majority of those expelled for
immoral behaviouriand drunkenness were workers.
16. Other causes of expulsion were as follows:
a) infringement of Party,discipline: 319 persons, i.e. 4.7%;
b) exploitation of official position for material gain:
224 persons, i.e. 3.3T.;
0) duplicity and cheating the Party: 214 persons, i.e. 0_, A 25"0

17. In addition there were cases of causing material losses
through culpable neglect of official duties; toleration of
ginanoiag abuses; ,slander and personal intrigues; abuse of
authority; clericalist sentiments; active participation in
Church organizations; suppression of criticism; and other
forms of anti-Party activities and sentiments.
18. Of those struck off, the largest group comprised persons
? struck off for lack of interest in the life of the Party and,
neglect of Party duties: 14,063, i.e. 41.3%. The next largest
groups comprised those, who left a Party organization without
obtaining transfers, or who obtained them but never reported:to
the next organization:. 10,032, i.e. 29.57,; and those who left
the Party at their own request: 6,226, i.e. 18.3%.
19. The remaining smaller groups comprised persons struck off
by reason of going abroad or other causes.
20. Out of those who left the Party, 16,467, i.e. 40.4%, were
Party candidates. This figure remains high, in spite of a
reduction in comparison with 1962. It indicates that there has
,not always been sufficient adherence to the exacting standards
'requited when accepting candidates for the Party, or to the
requirements in work with candidates.
'Appeals to the ClaP
21. In 1963 the CUT received 718 appeals against the
.resolutions of WIEPs and Party authorities.
22. 637 resolutions were adapted, among them were 27 original
5ierwiaatkowyJ cases.
23. From the nature of the appeals it is apparent that as in
previous years, the largest number of appeals were against
expulsion from the Party and for the restoration of membership
rights, and the smallest against other Party penalties or
0 striking off the Party records.

24. The judgments of the WKOs are increasingly correct. This
can be seen from the steady fall from year to year in the number
of cases where Party rights are restored. While in 1959 for
ieach 100 appeals against expulsion from the Party the CKKP
revised 38 decisions, in 1963 the CKKP revised only 21.
25. It should be added that the revision of resolutions took
Place in many cases as a consequence of the final hearing of
cases by judicial organs, which did not confirm the original
charges. Of course not every diumissal_of a?charge by a court
of justice forms a basis for the restoration of Party rights.
In our work, we guide ourselves by the Party programme and
Statutes. It may so happen that in spite of an acquittal by a:
court, if a serious infringement has taken place of the Statutory
and programme principles of the Party, individual Comrades are
subjected to Party disciplinary proceedings, with the imposition.
of penalties right up to expulsion from the Party.
26. As a consequence of the hearing of 27 original cases by the
CKKP, 8 persons were expelled from the Party and 19 'subjected to
other Party penalties.
. 27. The basis for the imposition of the above penalties included
'charges of an ideological character, such as deceiving the Party
and activities directed against it, the exploitation of official
positions and toleration of.abuses. Some of the above cases
were submitted for examination to the Leadership of the Party.
HAppeals to the WKKPs and PKKPs
28. In 1963 the Voievodship KKPs received 7,536 appeals against
the resolutions of Basic Party Organizations, Powiat Party Control
Commissions and Party authorities, and ,original cases.
29. 7,707 cases were examined, and 4,214 resolutions were
adopted, of which 3,912 were appeals and 302 original cases.
As a whole, fewer resolutions were adopted in appeal cases than
1962.

/ the number of appeals against expulsion from the Party and other
penalties and Party consequences. Should this be regarded as
a positive, or a negative feature, particularly when the WKKPs
i
are allowing appeals against quite a large number of resolutions
of POPs, and particularly of Party authorities?
35. It should be added that, in 1963, there has been only an
insignificant improvement in the correctness of the judgments
of POPs and Party authorities. This is to some extent indicated'
by the number of appeals allowed by the WKDIPs for the restoration
of rights of those expelled from the Party.
36. While in 1962 for each 100 appeals against expulsion from
the Party the WDEPE3 restored membership rights in 34 cases, in
1963 they restored them to 33 comrades.

in 1962.
30. How does this situation appear in the light of data covering.
the whole country?
31. There has been a reduction in the number of resolutions in
all groups, namely: (1) concerning Party sanctions and
consequences or discharge from Party disciplinary proceedings;
(2),resolutions concerning petitions to annul a Party penalty;
and (3) resolutions concerning petitions for permission to
rejoin the Party.
32. We do not regard all these changes as favourable.
33. While we are not interested, in the initiation of appeals to
rejoin the Party by persons previously expelled from it,
nevertheless the reduction in the influx of appeals for the
annulment of Party penalties indicates that the POPs are showing
a lesser interest in this problem, and, if we do not pay attention
to in time, "new" penalties imposed in recent years will
again become "old". It is hardly necessary to stress the
p.derse educational effects of this problem.

37. Of course, in comparison with 1959 when the proportion of
the restoration of Party membership rights was 50% there has
been an obvious improvement, but during the past year this
improvement has been insignificant.
38. The size of the index of allowed appeals may be influenced
by various factors: an assessment that the extent of the
penalty is excessive, lack of confirmation or only partial
confirmation of the charges, or a different classification of
the offence.
39. A part of the allowed appeals against expulsion from the
Party is connected ,with the non-confirmation of charges by the
judicial authorities.
40. The Voievodship KKPs should carry out a thorough analysis
of this problem, an should endeavour to answer the question,
which are the problems where a'difference of opinion occurs with
the POPs regarding the size of the penalty, and for what reasons
there follows a none-confirmation of charges - lack of
objectivity when hearing a case, insufficient investigation,
false accusations, or other reasons.
41. There has been a considerable reduction in original oases
dealt with directly by the naPs.
42. In relation to 1962, the number of original cases heard
has fallen by one-third. The processes occurring here are best
revealed by a comparison of data over a considerable period of
time.
43. While in 1959 the WIMPs adopted 1,164 resolutions, in
original cases, in 1963 they adopted only 302 resolutions. This
is a tendency which agrees with the recommendations of the
Plenum of the CKKP and of the Party Statutes. The KKPs do not
replace the POPs in adjudicating but give' them the greatest
possible help in arriving at a correct decision in the more

difficult cases.
44. In 1963 the ViKKPs passed to the POPs and Party authorities
:2,250 cases, giving direct assistance to Basic Party Organizations
in the examination of over 700 cases. As a result of the ,
:examination of these cases, many Party members were subjected to
:Party sanctions up to expulsion from the Party, while others
:were discharged from disciplinary proceedings in the face of
non-confirmation of the charges, or action was limited to
discussing the case and taking note of it.
45. In the whole country,': there are operating 151 powiat,
municipal and district KKPs.
' 46. The extensive networkof local social gipoleczny terenowg
!KKPs has become an important factor democratizing the entire
j system of Party adjudication, and co-operating in the
educational and prophylactic work of the Party authorities.
h 47. In 1963 local KKPs considered and adopted 1,839 resolutions,
of which 997 resolutions were adopted in appeal cases and 842
resolutions in original cases. In relation to the preceding
year, there has been a definite improvement, there was a
'considerable fall in original cases (65% in 1962 and 46% in
1963). In addition, 2,649 cases were passed to the POPs and ,
KZe giving direct assistance to the POPs in the examination of,
y1,367 cases. The situation is not, of course, uniform in all
l'owiat, municipal and District KKPs. There are KKPs in which'
there has been considerable progress in assisting the POPs in
adjudication, but there are also others where the improvement
has been slight.
48. The activities of the KKPs are directed towards the purging
of the Party ranks of ideologically alien, passive and
demoralized people, and towards the defence of Party members who

llave been falsely accused, frequently as a result of the
'activities of various cliques mutually supporting each other.
49.., The KKPs are trying to carry out these tasks on as wide a
front as possible, in co-operation with the POPs and Party
authorities.
50. Members and employees of the KKPs attended many POP
meetings at which the offences of Party members were discussed.
The POPs were assisted in obtaining a clear picture of the
situation, in examining all the circumstances, both as regards
the guilt and the defence of the Party Member. Many cases were
discussed with the leadership of the POP or with the Party
authority.
51. It has already become almost a matter of principle :that
every resolution of a POP which is altered by a KKP after an
appeal is, in the event of the penalty being reduced or
increased, discussed in the POP. This is of considerable
importance in the development of inner-Party democracy - in
taking account of the views and opinionsof the POP, and on
account of the control from below by the Party masses over the
.adjudication of the UPs.
52. A basic party organization should assess all cases of the
infringement of statutory principles and of the Party programme
by its members. Fulfilling this condition, the laPs helped the
POPs in examining cases and arriving at decisions. Many Party
members transgressing the norms of Party life were subjected to
Party sanctions.

the whole of adjudication and cannot be regarded as an adequate
basis for wider generalizations and conclusions in the sphere of
the policy of Party penalties.
54. 4 number of WKKPs, such as the ones at Wroclaw, Szczecin,
Bydgoszcz, and others carried out .a wide analysis of Party
adjudication. This makes it all the easier to consider the
conclusions and problems shown up by an analysis in the sphere
of the whole of adjudication.
?55. Since 1961 we observe a distinot fall in expulsions from
the Party:
a) in 1961 8,428 persons were expelled, i.e. 0.7% of the total
strength of the Party;
b) in 1962 7,923 persons were expelled, i.e. 0.6%
o) in 1963 6,723 persons were expelled, i.e. 0.5% 11
56. The question arises whether there is taking place a fall in
the number of offences by Party members meriting expulsion, or
whether there has been a lowering of standards in assessing the
behaviour of Party members by the basic party organizations. It
is probable that both these oauses are at work.
57. The activity of all Party authorities, KKPs and POPs, and
political-educational and prophylactic work, are undoubtedly
exercising an influence on raising the general level of Party
members and their morale, and are a counter to the commission
of more serious offences. Undoubted influence is also
exercised by Party, penalties imposed on Party members and
constituting a warning to them and to others, against the
commission of offences.
58. On the other hand, however, there has occurred in many
Party organizations a lowering of standards in assessing the
behaviour of Party, members, and connivancyjna

59. One may quote in support a number of facts revealed by the
WaPs as a result of their checks on Party adjudication in the
POPs and KPs.
60. The WKKP at Bydgoszcz found that in many cases no Party
disciplinary measures had been taken against Party members, in
spite of the fact that they had, been sentenced in courts of law.
For instance, in the area of the Znin KP in 1963 six Party
' members were expelled, whereas the Rowiat Court is prosecuting
70 Party members, of whom 32 have already received valid
convictions for various offences. In the area of the
Radziejow KP, 8 Party members were expelled, whereas the Powiat
Court has on its agenda 40 prosecutions against Party members,
31 of whom have already been validly convicted.
61. Cases of tolerance have been reported also by other KKPs.
For instance, at Gdansk, during the period of the reporting and
election campaign, members of the WKKP brought to 2:*ght many
irregularities in the work of the POPE), KGs, and KZe. In one
of the factories, at a. reporting and election meeting, there was
elected to the Party authorities a group of Party members who
tolerated favouritism and abuses. As a result of reports from
the WKKP, the meeting was declared void and new authorities were
elected. The reports of the WKKP were justified. A check
discovered in the Works Council abuses to the sum of about
700 thousand zloties. The case was handed over to the Public
'Prosecutor.
62. Thus the reduction in expulsions from the Party ranks is
caused both by the first factor, 'a fall in the number of
offences by Party members and by the second, tolerance of
offences.
63. Observations have shown that, in general, the first factor
operates in large Party organizations, while the second factor

is much more prevalent in smaller Party organizations.
64. It was precisely these stall Party organizations which were
given much help by the KKPs. ' Members of the KKPs participated
in meetings at which was discussed the attitude of Party memberci
in collision with the norms of Party life.
65. Party authorities and KKPs should constantly watch the !I
processes occurring in the POPS with regard to the purging of the
Party of demoralized, alien, and ideologically unconnected
1 elements. The results of these analyses should form the basis
for preparing an extensive programme of work with the POPs in
various environments. The KZs should analyse adjutilication at
their plenary and executive sessions.
(2) Other Party penalties and expulsion from the Party
66. There continues to be a disparity between the number of
! persons subjected to other Party penalties, and those expelled
from the Party. This gives evidence of the inadequate
appreciation of Party penalties by the POPs as one of the
instruments of education of Party members transgressing the
, norms of Party life.
67. This is best illustrated byHthe following data. The POPs
faclopted 5,210 resolutions on expulsion from the Party, but only ,
3,763 resolutions imposing other Party penalties. The
expulsions from the Party were, therefore, almost 1.5 times as
:high as the Party penalties. This disparity ie even tore
apparent if we add together the number of resolutions on both
expulsion and striking-off from the Party. It will then appc4r
that the total number of expulsions and strikings-off from the.
,Party were almost 7 times as great as the number of Party
penalties imposed.
,68. There have been signs of tolerance, on the part of POPs and
Party authorities towards minor offences by Party members, which

did not merit the imposition of the highest Party penalty,
tamely expulsion. There have been cases of indifference towards
the offences of individual Party members, of extenuating their
guilt, and even of defending those members of the Party who, by
their behaviour, had infringed the principles of Party ethics 024
indeed come into conflict with the law.
69. In order to change this state "of affairs, it is essential
for all Party authorities, and not only the aPs, to make an
effort to try and change the atmosphere in many basic Party
organizations. It is essential to mould inner-Party opinion in
Ouch a way that an offence by a Party member will not escape
punishment, that it will be noted and that the POP will adopt
a specified attitude towards the Comrade who committed the
offence.
70. The Party Control Commissions and Party authorities should
increase the penalties for the concealment and toleration of
offences of Party members. This is essential for the protection
many Party members from a situation where there is no other
solution except to impose the penalty of expulsion from the
Party.
(3) Dealins with original cases
71. There are still too many resolutions adopted by Party
authorities on expulsion from the Party in original cases.
70. The Statutory principle that Party authorities should
adjudicate only in particular Oases is still being enforced too
slowly. The Party authorities are in this respect far behind
the laPs, which have considerable achievements to their credit
in this matter. The index of expulsions made by Party
authorities is 22.50 (in 1964 it was 23.6c). It should be
added that, in 1959, the index was 20.1, and in 1960, 27.3%.

73. This indicates a lack of faith in the political and
ideological maturity of the POPs.'
74. the Party authorities often by-pass the POPs in oases
concerning the leading aparat, excusing this on the grounds of
the importance of the case or the desire not to undermine the
authority of a Party member holding a leading position. There
have even been cases when the party authorities failed to inform
the POPs of the decisions they had adopted.
75. The WKKPs,- together with the Organization Section, should
change this state, of affairs, analysing adjudication in those
Powiat committees in which there has been the largest incidence
of resolutions adopted by-passing the POPs, and giving to these
Powiat committees increased help in Party adjudicRtion.
-Particular attention to this matter should be paid by the WKKP
at Katowioe, where the index of expulsions by Party authorities
is 37% (out of 647 persons expelled the Party authorities
expelled 238), and by the WKKP at Poznan, where the index is
27.4% (out of 486persons expelled the Party authorities
expelled 133). In these voievodships, there has been a
deterioration in comparison with 1962.
.76. It ia obligatory to inform the POPs of the resolutions of
the Party authorities, and of the reasons behind them.
77. Certain MPS have reported that they have been quashing a
'greater proportion of resolutions adopted direct by Party -
authorities than df those made by POPs. This would indicate
that certain Party authorities do not devote sufficient
attention to adjudication and, that they do not take advantage of
the help of PICKPe and organization commissions in the preparation
of the more difficult cases for a session of the KP executive.
The WKKPs and the organization section should turn their.
attention to these KPs and give them increased asoistanoe.

(4) Educational work among workers and_peasants should be
TREFaved
78. The structure of expulsions and strikings-off according to
social composition does not coincide with the structure of the
whole Party organization classified in the same way. This
means that the process of purging the Party of ideologically
alien and passive people does not take place in similar
;
proportions in all environments. The rate of expulsions and,
strikings off the Party records of workers and peasants exceeds
the number of workers and peasants in the Party in comparative
figures jiczby wzgledng. This indicates that there are some
real shortcomings in political and educational work with the
workers, activ and with the peasants. The Party authorities
and POPs should approach with greater caution expulsions and
strikings off the Party records of workers and peasants.
79. This will not be without influence on the social composition
of the Party, unless itis counterbalanced by a corresponding
social-professional structure of the new intake.
(5) Penalties and appeals
80. The influx of appeals into the WKIOns is greatly out of
proportion to the numberof Party penalties imposed and
resolutions adopted to expel or strike off the Party records.
81. Evidence of this can be seen in the following data.
1,071 Party members expelled in various years appealed to the
WKKPs for the restoration of their rights. However, among
the appellants were only 301 persons who had been expelled
from the Party in 1963, in,a situation where the total number of
persons expelled in that year was 6,723.
82. The best illustration of weak' appeal activity can be seen
in the influx of appeals against expulsion from the Party made
to individual WICKPs.

'350 members were expelled in 1963, but only 7 of them appealed
to the WP; in the Warsaw voievodship, 345 members were
'expelled, and only 9 appealed to the WIMP. The situation is
similar in the other voievodships.
83. Even if one assumes that the number of appeals is in fact
larger, since a proportion of them may be heard direct by the
PKKPs, namely when they concern resolutions confirmed by the
KZe, this does not alter the fact that the influx of appeals
from persons expelled from the Party during the year concerned
has been minute. Similar conclusions are reached also when
considering appeals against other Party penalties and against
resolutions to strike off from the Party.
84. Among persons appealing against Party penalties and other
Party consequences, it is again striking how small is the
proportion of appeals from workers and peasants.
.85. In practice, this limits the possibilities of putting right
. any incorrect decisions and of restoring Party rights in all
those cases where resolutions were adopted too hastily.
86. The 'Ws should continue to analyse the problem of this
low appeal activity. The question is closely connected with
the Atmosphere in the POP and relations prevailing in the
factory. For many Party members, and particularly those who
have only been in the Party a short time, bad relations and the
atmosphere in their own POP form the basis for unjust
generalizations about the Party as a whole.
'87. The question of working out a combination of organizational
measures which'would create better conditions for protecting the
'statutory rights of workers and peasants in the matter of
appeals against Party sanctions and consequences remains ever
present.

(6). Irregularities in adjudication
0. Among the most frequent irregularities in adjudication by
Party authorities and organizations are the following: ?
a) the examination of cases and the imposition of Party
penalties in the absence of the person concerned and
when the attendance figure is low. Some WKKPe. have
reported that half the cases are examined in POPs in
the absence of the person concerned.
b) Insufficiently precise;charges.
o) Absence of the proper justification of a resolution.
d) Failure to inform the POP of the change of a resolution
by a Party authority and failure to discuss in the POP
the reasons behind the change.
e) Inadequate documertatiOn, consisting of the absence of
extracts from the minutes of POPs and powiat authorities.'
f) Failure on the part of Party authorities when confirming
the resolutions of POPs, to correct incorrect decisions
of POPs on striking-off in a situation where the Party
? member shoult:4 in fact be expelled, since he has
committed serious offences.
891 Let us quote some actual facts. The VirKKP at Bydgoszcz,
when carrying out a check on adjudication, found among other
things, the following;
(1) Out of 24 resolution's on expulsion, and striking off
considered by the executive of the KP at Tuchola in
1963, in 12 cases no notification of any sort was
sent to the POP regarding the confirmation or quashing
of the POP resolution. In the remaining cases, the
notification was sent after a delay of six months of
more.
The 10 failed to inform the Party organizations of
the reasons behind the changes.
(2) KP executives do not always oorrect basically wrong
resolutions, e.g. the KP exeoutive at Lipno confirmed
a resolution of the POP in the PZGS gowiat
Administration of Rural Oommuneg to strike off the
Party records a member who was sentenced to six
4/months'

months' "imprisonment for theft. Subject should
have been expelled from the Party.
90. Similar shortcomings in the adjudication of POPs and Party
authorities have also been reported by other WKKPs. This means
that statutory requirements are not always adhered to. This is
a result of ignorance of the Statutes, or of a lack of
realization as to ,what should' be punished and how, or of a
liberal approach to offences Committed by a Party member.
91. The WKKPs should assist powiat authorities and works
committees in assessing the eituation regarding Party
adjudication in their area, and in the popularization of the
problems of adjudication among the Party activ.
92. Acting in their supervisory capacity, the WKKPs should
quash incorrect resolutions and make decisions conforming to the
Party statutes.
(7) Adherence to the Statutes when' accepting new members to
the Party
93. The struggle for the purity of the Party ranks and for the
prevention of the introduction of alien elements into the Party,
and the struggle for raising the status of a PZPR member calls
also for an examination of the standards applied towards new
candidates for the Party. In general, the development of the
Party is proceeding correctly. The Party has been increasing
its ranks by accepting devoted and loyal members. The loss of
candidates from the Party in 1963 has been somewhat smaller than
in 1962. A greatersensitivity has been noticeable in Party
authorities and POPs in investigating a candidate and getting to
know his personal and' moral values, and there has been an
increase in requirements concerning the social and professional
activity of the candidate.
94. Sensitivity on this point must not, however, be allowed to
relax, particularly as certain POPs are failing to observe the

statutory requirements when accepting new members into the
Party. For instance, it appears from the records of the POP
at Wladyslawowo (powiat Radziejow) that a Party candidate was
accepted on 8.9.1963, whereas he 'made his application for
admission to the ranks of, candidates only on 13.9..1963. The
same document shows also that three candidates for Party
membership were accepted On that day, whereas it turns out that
on that day no Party meeting took place at all. All these
resolutions were, therefore, fictitious. Infringements of
the Statutes were also noticed in other POPs. This presents a
great danger.
95. It is necessary also to raise the standard of recommendations
for the Party. Party members who consciously deceive the Party
by recommending persons who do not deserve this should be faced
with severe Party disciplinary measures.
96. We have purposely devoted some time to points arising from
an analysis of Party adjudication, so as to stress that the
judgments of KKPs are only apart of the whole of Party
adjudication, and that even the highest standard of judgments of
KKPs (and we are still far from this ideal) does not ensure the
correctness of the adjudication of POPs and Party authorities.
97. The problem is of major importance, alike from the point of
view of moulding the character of Party members, and increasing
the authority of the Party, raising the status of a PZPR
member, and strengthening adherence to the Party rules.
,98. The endeavour to mould correctly Party adjudication in ?
Party organizations and authorities thus becomes of first-class
importance. This is understood by many

,100. The stage has been reached where in all the powiat
committees, and in the majority of works committees, with the
help of the VIKKP and the participation ,of its leadership, an
analysis has been carried out of the whole of Party adjudication,
in the powiat and works Party organizations, analysing the
period of the past two years. They did not restrict themselves
merely to an assessment of the adjudication and work of the
PKKP, as has usually been the case in the past, at sessions of
the executives of the powiat committees. The agenda of the
sessions included a point, "The analysis of'Party adjudication
during the past two years". This assessment was carried out
//at enlarged sessions of the KP executives with the participation,
' of the secretaries of KGs and the larger POPs and of workers
from the Party aparat: Some KPs and the majority of works
committees carried out this analysis at plenary Sessions of the
Party authorities. The course of the discussions confirmed
the essential nature of the problems dealt with. The
participants in the discussions stressed the correctness of the
initiative and called for the holding of more frequent meetings
not only of the executives, but also of plenary sessions for the.
purpose of discussing these problems. Let us quote the
opinion of the WKIKP.

rarty. Numerous examples were given of the results of the
absence of proper work with candidates and the lack of
responsibility on the part of persons making recommendations.
It was revealed at the same time that in certain powiat
committees, such as Nowogard and Lobez, there was a failure to
observe the statutory principles in the cases of making
recommendations. Sometimes, Party members there recommended a
person whom they had known for only a few weeks. Much attention
was also devoted to educational and prophylactic work in the
Party organizations. Thought was given to means aiming at
increasing the activity of Party organizations and at a
considerable reduction by this means of the number of strikings-

Party organization l was raised at almost every session of the las

session of the KP at Lobez, where the executive of the KP
presented a thorough and critical analysis of the situation
regarding Party adjudication, it became apparent that a major
shortcoming was the problem of pro-religious feelings among a
large part of the Party activ and of members of the powiat Party

109. We have made somewhat extensive quotations from the report
of the WXHIP at Szczecin on the results of sessions of the
executives and plenary sessions of XZs and XPs, so as to
present as faithfully as possible .the atmosphere of these
meetings and the nature of the discussions, and also because
this has been the first wide-scale attempt to acquaint the
Party Masses with the problems of adjudication.
110. Attention should also be drawn to the initiative of the
WIMP at Wroclaw, which, in its concern for ensuring the
' correctness of judgments in the POPs, has prepared
recommendations regarding the adjudication procedure in the
basic Party organizations.
1 ,111. These recommendations were used for the instruction of
POP secretaries, and particularly of new secretaries elected
during the recent elections to the Party authorities.
Causes of expulsions
112. Let us now consider to what extent the content of Party
adjudication reflects the facts of unhealthy phenomena which
we encounter in Party life and in the attitude of Party members.
113. Let us look at the structure of expulsions, classified
according to causes.
(1) Abuses, thefts, exploitation of position
114. Almost half the persons expelled from the Party were
expelled for various abuses, thefts, exploitation of official
position to achieve material gains, and tolerance towards
abuses. Of course such people have nothing in common with the
' Party and do not represent its true image and character. The
Party must ruthlessly combat speculators of all kinds, and
. particularly those who try to cover up their offences by using
Itheir Party membership card.

115. During the recent period, there has been over a two-fold
increase in oases oonnected with smuggling and currency crimeS.
:Currency-smuggling gangs, using methods of corruption, often
draw into their activities workers of the State aparat who have,
.a special obligation to combat crime. Such facts must be
condemned with the greatest severity.
:116. The misappropriation of social property can be countered
to a certain extent by proper supervision and control.
117. In 1963, in comparison with 1962, there has .been a drop
.in the value of recorded losses caused ,by the misappropriation
Of social property. Nevertheless, the losses which we suffer
on this account are high and this problem must remain at the
focus of attention of the POPs, IOUs and Party authorities, the
self-government activ, trade unions, economic administration and
'Control organs.
)18. Unfortunately, there exist in this field a large number
Of shortcomings and culpable neglect. In the 3rd and 4th
quarters of 1963, the NIX carried out a check in socialized
places of work throughout the country, in which, in 1962 and in
the first half of 1963, serious economic abuses had come to
light.
119. The check revealed that a considerable number of'under-
takings, factories and institutions have not been taking
advantage of the conclusions and comments of the control organs.
120. It was even established that the controlling units had
been given false information on the alleged carrying out of
conclusions.
121. It was also found that there had been serious neglect in
protecting property against theft, and in allowing leading and
financially responsible posts to be occupied by persons who had
already had convictions for economic crimes. For example, in

the State Trustee Organization Oanstwowe Pogotowie Opiekunozg
at Chmielowice, .powiat Opole, there was appointed in 1960 to
the position of Chief Accountant a person who had had convictions
for financial abuses. In 1962-63, being in this position, the
person committed abuses by misappropriating 111 thousand zloties
belonging to the; funds of the Organization.
122. Similar examples may be quoted from every .voievodship.
123. The conclusions resulting from the controls must not
remain a secret accessible only to the management of the
establishment. They should, be discussed widely by the aotiv,
. with the participation of the control and revision organs.
124. Much has been done in this matter by the WKKPs, initiating
consultations inlorder to discuss the post-control conclusions
. and to ensure their implementation.
125. A number of WKKPs may be mentioned here, such as the
WKKP at Olsztyn,Rzeszow, and others.
126. The WIMP at Rzeszow organized a consultation with the heads
of the control-revision branches 5lo7 at voievodship level.
127. During the consultation, stress was laid on the necessity
,of discussing the results of the control not only with the
management, but with the workers as well, so as to encourage
,them to combat crime of.everY description, wastage, and the
infringement of the laws and regulations in force. Those
,participating in the discussion pointed out instances of the
employment of persons having court convictions in positions
which carried financial responsibility contrary to existing
instructions, and the indifferent attitude of responsible
persons in the factory towards people committing crimes.
128. The XIV Plenum of the KC drew attention to the
inadmissible infringement of financial discipline, and to the
necessity of combating extravagance and wastefulness in the

national economy.
129. These problems should continue to remain at the focus of
attention of Party authorities, KKPs and POPs. In addition to
prophylactic and preventive work, stopping the incidence of
abuses and the infringement of financial discipline, there
exists the need to increase the Party sanctions for offences of
this sort.
130. Greater care should also be exercised when giving permission
to rejoin the Party to persons expelled from it for abuses.
131. In Principle.thosewho have committed abuses should not
receive permission to rejoin the Party, regardless of whether
they have been sentenced by a court and the conviction been
quashed, or whether no such conviction took place at all, since
the case had not been dealt with within the proper time-limit
by a court of law.
(2) Demoralization
132. In addition to the large number of persons expelled for
abuses, a considerable group (one in four of those expelled)
comprise those expelled for demoralization, drunkenness, and
infringement of the principles of Party ethics.
133. Of significance here is the fact that the percentage of
expelled workers and peasants in this group is higher than that
of white-collar workers. This would appear to suggest that
demoralization and drunkenness are higher among workers and
peasants. It does not seem that this corresponds to the actUal
situation in these social groups. In the opinion of some
WKKPs, in the white-collar groups there exists a more tolerant
attitude towards offences of this sort and for this reason such
facts are not reflected in adjudications.
(3) Infringement of ideological principles
134. The XIII Plenum of the KC drew attention to the moulding 50X1-HUM

r in the attitude of Party members. Our Party is a mass Party.
,.The question of the moulding of the ideological attitude of
, Party members is, therefore, a task both for today and for
tomorrow.
50X1-HU
I 135. The Party is faced with the task of mobilizing the masses
;for the struggle for inculcating respect for the law and for
the norms of social coexistence, for observing State and social,
discipline. Party members should be a shining example in
. this struggle. They should combat incorrect views and
:convictions. For example, among the greater part of our
community, there is a deep-rooted conviction, inherited from
capitalist days, that the theft of social property is a lesser
? crime than the theft of private property. The opinions and
,different views of various environments often have an influence
[on individual Party members.
/ 136. Some succumb to the atmosphere of getting rich at all
:costs and the upstart mentality, which;is a negation of our
ideology. They become people without ideology.
137. rarty members do not always have the courage to resist
incorreot views and attacks on the Party. . Some even pay
attention to them and disseminate various pieces of information,
,they have heard, thus clearing the way for gossip and assisting,
,various wrecking activities.
138. The CIEP took proceedings against certain members who
slandered the Party. They did not have the courage to come to
the Party authority sooner and tell it of the doubts which were
growing within them. They did not have the courage of a
communist, and when they were asked about it, they adopted a
two-faced attitude, posing as fervent defenders of the Party
line, while the facts gave evidence of something radically
different.

139 The CKXP expelled from the Party Marek LUMERGLUCK for
spreading defeatism and lack of faith in the Party, for
slandering the leadership of the, Party and the Government, and
for hostile statements underminihg the policies of the Communist
Party of the Soviet Union.
140. The CRKP also expelled from the Party Michal KRAJEWSK1 for
anti-Party activities consisting of writing slanderous libels
against the leaders of the international workers' movement and
of the PZPR. Even after being expelled from the Party,
KRAJEWSKI sent slanderous letters to the First Secretaries of
Klis, to Powiat Committees and to individual persons.
141. Some Party members adopted an incorrect attitude in
connection with the increase in the prices of coal and in the
charges for gas and electricity.
142. They even participated in, the dissemination of a libel
which had appeared, while other's remained passive and did not
take up a decisive attitude towards these facts. The KKPs
held many conversations with Party members, some of whom were
subjected to Party sanctions, including expulsion from the
Party. The matter was also discussed at Party meetings in
those environments in which the libels had been distributed.
143. In Party adjudication offences of a political nature
against the ideological principles of the Party, such as
duplicity and misleading the Party, nationalist activities and
speeches, clericalist speeches and activity in Church
organizations find a comparatively feeble reflection.
144. Of course the question of succumbing to an alien ideology
cannot be resolved merely by means of Party sanctions and
consequences. Of decisive influence here above all is wide-
spread ideological-educational work among the Party masses.

and range of this work. It is these educational results which
will, to a large extent, govern the rate of getting rid of
alien and non-socialist views to which certain members of the
Party succumb, be it on questions of world outlook, succumbing
to pressure from the clergy, or on nationalist questions,
succumbing to nationalism, orsto other views contrary to our
ideology. Our Party is based on the principles of proletarian
internationalism, and while proletarian internationalism is
inseparable from patriotism, it excludes nationalism and
nationalist chauvinism. Nationalism is the negation of
proletarian internationalism and is the negation of the basic
ideological principles of our Party. Our Party must
consistently combat all signs of nationalism. The Party
assesses people according to class and not nationalist criteria,
according to moral and ideological values, and not according to
national provenance or membership.
145. The weak refleCtion in Party adjudication of offences of
a politioal character which harm the ideological principles of
the Party, may indicate, on the one hand, an understanding that
such problems are resolved by long-term educational work among
Party members, or, on'the other, the .existence of a certain
degree of liberalism, :lack of sensitivity, and insufficient
reaction to offences of this sort on the part of members of the
Party.

account of the veiled forma of suppression of criticism.
148. The EKPa, Party authorities and POPs continue to be faced
with the task of defending persons who have the courage to
unmask abuses, combat cliques and defend justice. On the
other hand, we must act consistently against wrecking,
maliciousness, and the tendencious undermining of the confidence
of honest Party members and Party activists.
h 149. The CKKP, while on circuit at Jaslo, expelled from the
Party Wojciech KOSIBA for lending his support to a campaign of
provocative slanderous attacks on Party activists and attempts
to compromise them as alleged "diversionaries" and organizers of
a non-existent terrorist-sabotage organization financed by
foreign intelligence services, and for arousing public reaction
; to these slanderous accusations, making use for the purpose of
social organizations, such as ZBOWiD 5Ssociation of Fighters
for Freedom and Democracil, sessions of People's Councils,
public gatherings, etc.
150. The offences described above find a weak reflection in
adjudication. 27 members were expelled from the Party for
suppression of criticism, and 153 for wrecking.

151. We would now like to turn attention to reports which have
been reaching us on the subject of the attitude of some workers
of the Party aparat.
152. In 1963 a letter waa published by the CP and the
Organization Section of the KC on the subject of combating
? signs of demoralization in the Party activ, including also
members of the Party aparat, of neglect and abuses in the
economic aparat, and of demoralizing extravagance in organs of ,
local administration.

153. The letter fulfilled its purpose, and there is a greater
sensitivity in Party authorities towards the above offences on
the part of the Party activ.
154. There have been fewer cases of offences on the part of
workers of the Party aparat. In spite of this in 1963 for
various offenoes, pursuit of material gain, abuse of alcohol,
etc., there were removed from the Party aparat: 3 heads and
deputy heads of sections of KWs, 13 First Secretaries of KPs,
and 23 secretaries of departmental Pesortowff KPs. A certain
number of instructors were also removed'.
155. The problem of ethical-moral attitudes was the subject of
conferences with the Party activ. We should like to draw
attention to a tendency which has recently appeared on the part
of certain workers of the Party aparat towards obtaining
additional remuneration by undertaking to give paid lectures,
often falling within the sphere of their normal duties. For
. instance, the WKKP at Bydgoszcz has reported that the head of
the Party Propaganda Centre at Wloclawek gave, on instructions
from the TWP general Knowledge Society7 27 talks and 20 lectures,
while the Propaganda Secretary of the KP at Radziejow gave 13
talks, including one on the subject of tuberculosis. There
exist also other forms of making money on the side, such as paid
participation in Editorial Boards, and similar work.
156. We consider that a worker of the Party aparat undertaking
additional paid work should obtain individual permission from
t4e leadership of the Party committee at the appropriate level
? and from the Cadre Bureau. Government regulations governing
this matter must also be binding on workers of the Party aparat.
157. The basic mass of workere of the Party aparat work
generously and devotedly for the benefit of the Party. For
this reason, we should assess all the more severely and strictly

all deviations from the principles in foroe.
158. The WKKPs have worked under the direction of the Party
authorities, which have assessed their work in the executive,
and have adopted conclusions and resolutions on the subject of
their further activity.
159. In consequence of the WIEPs drawing attention to a number
of unhealthy aspects in Party life, attempts have been made to
cause their elimination.
160. Many problems brought up by Party adjudication have been
analysed. The activity of the KKPs is bound up closely with
the POPs. The KKPs are enforcing with increasing success the
principle that no case should be dealt with without its echo in
the POP.
161. In six WICKPs, the Presidia are acting as auxiliary links,
implementing in ,day-to-day work the resolutions and directives
of the Plenum of, the WKKP.
162. They assess the work of the PKKPe and organize a more
thorough analytical work coneerning Party adjudication and the
work of the WKDIPs themselves, and they submit conclusions to the
Party authorities. The, CKKP has exercised supervision over the
adjudication of KKPe at lower levels, and paid attention to
phenomena brought' up by Party adjudication at conferences,
plenary sessions of the WKKPs and the CICKP, in the KW executives
assessing the work of the WKKPe, and also in the Presidium of
the CKKP and in individual conversations with the chairmen and
vice-chairmen of the WKKPs. Members and workers of the CKKP
participated in a number of plenary sessions of the PKKPs,
MKKPs, and Dz.K06, giving direct assistance to these Commissions
in fixing the directions of their further activity.

163. In 1963, there; were 17 sessions of the Presidium of the
CKKP. An assessment was made of the work of 8 WKKPs: at ?
Poznan, Kielce, Katowice, Krakow, Bialystok, Bydgoszcz,, Olsztyn,
! and Opole, adopting definite orders and decisions regarding the
direction of the further work of the ICUs.
164. Directives were issued concerning the work of powiat,
municipal and district =a, based on a plan worked out by the
WKKP at Wroclaw. The CKKP Bulletin has been used for
popularizing the problems of adjudication and of instruction.
The Presidium of the CKKP heard a number of appeals against the
decisions of the ZOs 5djudicating Teamg of the CKKP, deciding
either to send back the case for a re-hearing or accepting the
correctness of the resolution adopted and rejecting as
groundless the appeal to have the case re-examined by the ZO of
the CKKP.' When examining cases, the CKKP in many instances
heard the views of indiVidual sections of the KC.
165. In addition to appeals, the =a and the CKKP received
letters and complaints from Party members and from non-Party
people.
166. In 1963 the CKKP received 2,035 letters, not counting
appeals against Party penalties.
167. Many conversations Were conducted.
168. 1,482 persons came to the CKKP on various matters, of ,
whom 434 were invited to Sessions of the adjudicating teams.,

analysis of the work of the WICKPs and the CKKP, and ,of the whole
of Party adjudication, present us with the following tasks for
the immediate future:

.and Party authorities at lower levels. Thers41d develop.
multifarious forms of supervision, and should observe the
!statutory requirements in the matter Of purging the Party of
demoralized,! alien, and ideologically unconnected elements.
The analysis of Party adjudication and the conclusions arising
'
from it, should form the basis for laying down a broad programme
of work with the POPs in various environments. The KZs and
Is should analyse adjudication at their plenary sessions and
in their executives. The WKKPs, jointly with the organization
sections of the KWs, should analyse the Party adjudication of
those Powiat Committees which have been making the largest
number of resolutions on expulsion and striking-off while
by-passing the POPs, and should give them greater assistance in
Party adjudication.
(2) It is necessary to carry on a consistent struggle
against abuses, to struggle against the infringement of financial
discipline, extravagance and wastage, and to increase Party
/ I
sanctions for offences of this sort; to develop widespread
prophylactic work preventing the incidence of abuses, and to
organize the discussion of post-control conclusions with the
factory activ in the presence of the control and revision organs.
People should be defended who make justified criticisms, having
the courage to expose abuses and to combat cliques, while, on
the other hand, steps should be taken against wrecking,
maliciousness, and the tendentious undermining of the confidence
of honest members of the Party and Party activists.
(3) Without neglecting ideologiOal-educational work among
the Party masses, the sensitivity of the POPs should be
increased towards the offences of Party members of a political
character, which undermine the ideological principles of the
Party. .

170. On the 11th March, 1964, in the KW; of the PZPR at ,Opole,
there was held on the initiative of the WICKP and the Economic
Section of the KW, a conference of the Party activ devoted to
a discussion of the problems of the work of control organs and
the implementation of post-control conclusions by the factory,
trade centre, work co-operative, etc.
171. The conference was attended by members of the WKKP, the
chairmen of the PKKPs and the oads and secretaries of the Party
organizations of the control organs NIX, PIH, IXR, the Inspection
Branch of the CRS, and Work Co-operatives.
172. Altogether, the conference was attended by 70 Comrades.

attention was focussed on the existing assessment of the work of

found, among other things, that there had existed hitherto in .
practice a tendency towards an excessively formal treatment of
post-control conclusions and recommendations by the leadership
of the units being controlled. Examples were quoted of the
ignoring of poet-control conclusions in which it was recommended
that workers should be dismissed for failing to perform their
official duties and for causing financial losses to their
institutions. Failure to Carry out these recommendations
resulted in further losses and abuses.
175. ,A check carried out by the NIK Representation [felegatur2.7
on the effectiveness of theactions of other control organs,
such as the IKR,PIH, Inspeption Section of the CRS, WZSP, etc.,
indicated several shortcomings in their work, e.g.:
a) the late despatch of post-control recommendations;
b) insufficiently frequent checks on the carrying-out
of conclusions and recommendations;
p) failure to include in the post-inspection recommendations
shortcomings and errors revealed during the control.
176. These phenomena apply most frequently to the control
organs of Combines ZZjednoczeni27. Nevertheless, the control
organs of Combines and other Voievodship institutions encounter
considerable resistance in the implementation of post-control
conclusions and recommendations by the institutions being
controlled. This applies particularly to State Farms and work
co-operatives. An incorrect attitude towards the implementation
of post-control conclusions is illustrated by the following

177. In connection with the existing shortcomings and
inadequacies in the field Of implementation of post-control
conclusions, the MP, in co-operation with the control organs,
found that members of the Party and Trade Union activ and of the
workers' self-government had failed to take part in the post-
control conferences. There have been instances of POP
secretaries not being acquainted with the results of the control
owing to the managers of the factories preventing the Party
organizations from having access to this material. ' It has also
happened that individual Party organizations have treated the
results of the control,, in a liberal way, and have failed to
take Party proceedings in relation to those members of the Party
, who have committed offences causing economic losses.

authorities and basic Party organizations should exert a more
decisive influence on the implementation of the conclusions
resulting from controls.

, disoussion, it was agreed that the conference was necessary and
useful. Many critical comments were directed against the
managements of factories and institutions, which had failed to

for internal application in the faotory. It was stressed that
0 insufficient attention is paid to questions of protecting social
'property against theft. It was pointed out at the same time

a need for greater interest to be taken in the work of cadre
cells in the places of work in which instances of offences and
abuses had been established.

? o) the basic Party organizations in the control organs
should mould the correct uttitude of Party members, integrate

managers for conversations and advised them to join the Party.
The managers were given a few days to think this over, and, in

resolution of the POP to expel Jan WILKOSZ from the Party for
employing his subordinates on the construction of his own house.
Workers who refused their services, or who demanded payment for
the work, were transferred by WILKOSZ to other, less remunerative
' work, and were threatened by him with dismissal.
202. WILKOSZ wrote a fictitious Minute of a Party meeting which
did not take place at all, so as to strike off from the Party
COmradelCOSOWSKI. At one of the general village 5golnogramadzk7

transgressions in connection with a national conference of
WZUP Directors at Olsztyn.
205. The Executive of the Zoliborz KD reduced the penalty,
giving RYBICKI a reprimnnd with caution.
206. On the inStructions of the CKKP, the ZO of the WKKP, after
examining the charges against RYBICKI, decided to quash the
resolution of the Zoliborz KD and to expel Kazimierz RYBICKI
from the Party. From the material, it appears that the main
responsibility for the organization on the 26th-27th July 1963
of a national cOnference of: Directors of WZUPs and for the
infringement of financial discipline lies with RYBICKI.
207. A control disclosed that the Directorate of the WZUP in
Warsaw, when adopting, with, the agreement of the Main Union of
OSPs, the decision to call the conference at Olsztyn, planned
in advance to turn the conference into a holiday, which
influenced the atmosphere prevailing during the conference.
Plans were made, among others, to organize an excursion to
Mikolajki, RucianY, and Gizycko, and for the consumption of
spirits. The costs of the, conference amounted to 53,779.40 zl.,
of which 11,435 tl. was spent on vodka alone, while the dinner
for those taking part in the excursion cost 6,665.30 zl. The
organizers permitted the participation in the conference and its
attendant celebrations of members of the families of the
participants and of WZUP employees and others, who without any
justification enjoyed for several days all the facilities of
the institution.

superior whose duty it was to organize the conference both from
the practical and the political point of view, not only did not
do so, but by his attitude demonstrated an absence of professional
and financial discipline.

Power Station, member of the executive of the KM of the PZPR,
Party member since 1955, punished with a Party reprimand by
the WICKP at Rzeszow for' participation in the organizing of
private journeys using official motor cars.
210. MARTELA, being a member of the Executive of the KM of the
PZPR at Stalowa Wola, instead of opposing the private journeys
in official cars by certain activists of the KM of the PZPR,
himself travelled in this way to various localities thereby
incurring serious losses for the State Treasury. By his
behaviour and attitude, he infringed statutory principles and
obligations, which require from each Party member the proper
fulfilment of the tasks with which,he is entrusted.

POPs and Party 'authorities:
223. (1) The MKKP at Lodz heard the appeal of Comrade Alfred
STOPCZYK, a former employee of. the "Lanbda" Factory in Lodz,
against the decision of the Executive of the. "Polesie" KD of
the PZPR which had given him ai reprimand with caution.
224. Comrade STOPCZYK was originally punished with a Party
reprimand by a resolution of the POP for writing a letter
drawing attention to the faulty and bad administration of
stores in his factory, injustice, and a, careless attitude towards
the protection of social property. The main promoter of the
passing of this resolution was the factory manager, who'felt,
himself insulted by the critical remarks of Comrade STOPCZYK
and even brought about at a later stage STOPCZYKIs dismissal
from employment.
225. Barely a month later, there took place a reporting and
election meeting of the POP, at which, as a result of considerable
pressure by the manager; Comrade STOPCZYK was expelled from the
Party. The grounds for this resolution were based on his
non-attendance at the meeting. The atmosphere prevalent at
this meeting is shown up by the fact that it was necessary to
vote three times, and the resolution to expel Comrade STOPCZYK
from the Party was then carried by a bare majority of one vote.
226. On an appeal by Comrade STOPCZYK, the Executive of the
"Polesie" KD of:the PZPR called a commission to investigate the
whole matter. The commission examined the case superficially
and inaccurately, which led to further deviations. Although
Comrade STOPCZYK was restored to membership rights, he was given
a reprimand with caution. 50X1-HUM
