NAZI determination to exterminate the population: of Poland, notably the in- tellectuals, is shown in all its horror in a semi-official statement issued by the Polish Press Bureau on Gèr- man atrocities in Poland,

Immediately after entering Poland the Germans started moss execu- tions among the Polish population. They undertook to destroy all the Polish leaders In Pomerania, Pozna and Silesin; not only political leaders; but also all members of the clergy! and notable figures in economie clt- ries

Then came a long series of mass two executions, the authors of which were S.S. and Gestapo, These execu- Zoo tions continue over Western Poland) and are of a particularly bestial na- ture, aiming at exterminating all the population.

"Long Liva Poland" Generally these executions take lace int publie in the principal squares of towns and villages, es- pecially on market days.

. As an example. five Poles were shot in the market place of a small about provincial town, Szamotuly. Ocluber 20 last year.

At a certain hour members of the S.S. closed the streets which over- looked the market place. The five young Poles were then placed against The wall. Before dying they cried, "Long live Puland."

After the men had been shot by a fring sqund, the officer in command of the S.S. detachment again

shot them in the head. Those who saw the scene wept and women fainted.

Made To Dig Graves

After the execution a priest, a doctor and a lawyer were ordered to take the bodies on a curt to the ecmetery, where they were made to dig the graves and Bury the victims. At Koszion, the parish priest, landowner, and 48 of the inhabitants Onjeznohe, Abbe shot. At Zablocki, known and respected by everybody, and 14 Polish workmen were shot.

At Bydgoszcz, 136 Polish college boys, some of whom were only aged 12 and 13 were shot. The college boys, as German eye-witnesses them- scives stated, behaved in an heroic manner. While facing death they sang the Pollsh national hymn.

In all, up to the end of December, the Germans had shot at Bydgoszcz about 0,000 Polish men and women. Streets and squares on certain days) flowed with blood.
