A POLISH PERIODICAL
Slit,—May I, as the editor of the " obscure " Trybuna Polska (" The Polish Tribune "), supply you with some information about it? Trybuna Polska is published by the progressive section of the Polish emigration in Great Britain, known as "Unity and fiction" movement. We started in 1942 a periodical under the same title, but we were refused paper by the Ministry of Supply (Control of Paper Department). We feel that it is our right and our duty to give expression to the views which are not only those of a section of the Polish emigrants, but also those of a large part of the Polish people at home with their greatest fighting organisation, The People's Guard Army. Therefore, not having the necessary permission for a periodical, we are stating our views in the form of irregular publica- tions, of which the latest is called the " Polish Tribune."
The Trybuna Polska, as all our other publications, is written and financed by the sympathisers of " Unity and Action " movement. All our contributors, including the writer of this letter, are either working or are in the Forces, and we prepare all our publications in our spare time. The only cost, therefore, is the printers' bill, which, as I mentioned above, is paid by our own contribution.
Trybuna Polska is circulated in the usual way, by Hachette, Central Book Shop and other distributors. Owing to previous bad experience I am afraid I cannot supply you in this letter with a list of our contributors and members of our editorial board, unless the Polish Government will publicly state that they will not be victimised in any way.—I remain,
