Galicia has fallen under the rule of a dictator, according to whom terrorism as the only practical means of making good Poles of the Ukrainians in Eastern Galicia. The object of the military is to put down a terroristic campaign begun by a secret Ukrainian organization which is instigating high-school youths to burn crops and barns of Polish landowners. Unfortunately, in the discharge of their duty of restoring order the Polish troops are punishing indiscriminately the innocent with the guilty and so kindling a spirit of sedition and revenge among the Ukrainians living in East Galicia, who look back with regret upon the easy-going prewar Austrian rule.
