S, Zone This is the story of a young man who has known no boyhood. We Americans cannot realize the conditions .that exist for the so-called Displaced Persons, the underground workers and the soldiers who have refused to return to their homeland and Russian rule. This letter is from a young medical student, a Polish underground worker now living in the American zone of Germany. — - Heidelberg, May 30 I have received your letter of February and I thank you for it very much. My long silence no doubt is difficult for you to understand. Actually it is my fault, only partly so. Your letter reached nearly two months late because I was practicing in a hospital outside of Heidelberg. After my return I wished to answer you at once but in English. Alas, my knowledge of English is so slim that it is impossible for me to write in English without the aid of a third person. At that time I received a package from you also, for which I am extremely grateful. I had then practically decided to write to you in Polish, especially since you had agreed to it in your letter. At that time, however, Fate put me in bed for several weeks with inflammation of the joints. I needn't add that such an enforced vacation, especially during a semester, is not the most pleasant occurence. Now, fortunately, all that is passed, and what is most important, it has left no scars. ' But enough of such matters, already I have written of them at too great a length, but I did not wish you to take my silence for lack of good-will on my part. Quite the contrary, I am delighted to exchange ideas with a young person who is actively Interested in the fate of so-called "DP.'s" and I gather from your letter that, you have a blood relationship with my country. I gather from your letter that you would like to have a somewhat detailed picture of our life, and conditions existing here. I don't know that I can adequately present these problems so that you, a person born and raised in the United States—a country which shows respect for free thought and the rights of individuals, can understand from my few words, this atmosphere in which we breathe. I quite understand that when two people look at the same thing, each will notice something different, hence, despite you have some knowledge of me from my classmate, I shall tell you briefly of my life, so you can more easily understand my pychology. My fate was not and is not something unusual but was the same as that of thousands of other of my countrymen whose homes were broken by the war and who were then thrust into strange lands. , (Continued on Page 2) Workshop Aug. 9-20 Felix Payant, a nationally known and widely experienced teacher will be a visiting instructor here for the two week art-work shop which is being held from August 9 to August 20. Students studying art at the present time will continue their work in the mornings while students coming exclusively for the workshop will study all day for the two week period.
