Excerpt from Poland and the Minority Races
IN May 1919 meetings were. Held in many of the larger cities of the United States at which resolutions were adopted protesting against the reported wholesale killing of Jews in Poland. The Polish Government thereupon issued a statement denying that any excesses had taken place. In June, after further agitation in America, M. Paderewski, President of the Council of Ministers of Poland, asked President Wilson to appoint an American Commission to ascertain the facts. In accord ance with this request a Mission consisting of Mr. Henry Morgenthau, late American Ambassador to Turkey, and brigadier-general Edgar Jadwin, was sent to Poland on July io, 1919. Mr. Homer H. Johnson, the third member of the Mission, joined them three weeks later in Warsaw.
