Moral sanation
A loud commission for fighting abuse has not found a single scandal that would be worth brought before a court. Revolutionary shots have added hearts to radical elements; More than one city received a socialist council and a magistrate at that time; Priests were attacked sporadically. Following Piłsudczyk Trzmielowski, who murdered the former minister Linde in the spring, They were killed by other President of the Lodz (Zinarski) and Sobiński's curator in Lviv. The police followed public Endeckie organizations – like "development" and secret communist, Only she didn't track the Masons. Among such moods, the left promised a certain success in the election, But Piłsudski did not wish her at all and the Sejm was not solved. While sensing a large host of worshipers in Poland, Marshal washed to act with another method. Any lawlessness, which the Sejm will condemn, But it will condemn powerlessly, will be proof of the courage and genius of the dictator, and at the same time he will create a USUS and will feel terrible.
The chambers gathered in September in a resistant mood, irritated. Nationalists cooked an attack on interior ministers and education (of them [first] He withdrew from the Sejm the local government projects agreed between the parties). What's more, This opposition party instead of demanding millions […] insisted on savings, voting against position 27 millions for officers, which part of the socialists supported, as a reward for the revolution. Zdziechowski was the main preacher of savings again. Bartel gave way, And the new Prime Minister Piłsudski brought a crowd of officers to the Wiejska Street, shouting "Down with the Sejm". The budget session was postponed immediately, And at night [z 30 September] already 1 October [1926 r.] The military cluster fell into the Zdziechowski apartment and massacred him cruelly, fugitive. The press still had the courage to condemn such crimes, So the assassinations fell on her. The loudest were attacks on the novelist Tadeusz Mostowicz (in September) and on the playwright Adolf Nowaczyński. But the mysterious "disappearance" of the gene made an even worse impression. Zagórski. The one together with Rozwadowski and Jaźwiński waited in the Antokolski prison near Vilnius to the court, who will cleanse him of false accusations of cash abuse. In August 1927 r. He was released with tarnished health Rozwadowski, and Zagórski was taken to Warsaw, where a few officers (mjr Wenda i in.) At Piłsudski's order, they arranged with him skillfully. This matter of "Polish conscience", as profile called it. Marian Zdziechowski, Personal friend of the victim, And the lover of the marshal – It has never been displayed officially. Poland was sanated by "unknown perpetrators".
Agony of the Sejm
The Rataja Sejm in the last dozen or so months of his term of office presented a tragicomic view. Comical for Belvedere, tragic for national democracy. The center began to crumble. Folk-narrodable Association reinforced to 100 MPs withstanded all threats and temptations. Amazing grimace on the left: In the name of the rules, the dictator had to be attacked, But feelings and interests pulled towards him, And they guarded this confusion, sanation clients stuck to individual clubs. Trąmpczyński at the head of the Senate eclipped the courage of too flexible Rataj. Piłsudski became the prime minister, However, also stopping the portfolio of military affairs. In the government they sat down from 2 October next to Bartl, Zaleski, Kwiatkowski ministers with limited party responsibility: Moraczewski, Miedziński and two conservatives – Meysztowicz (justice) and non -building (agriculture). Nobody knew anymore, Is such a government radical, or reaction, If the Sejm was allowed to work, They would have to create Piłsudski's work these contradictions. Piłsudski invented a ceremonial conflict at the opening of the autumn session: he ordered to listen to the presidential message in a standing attitude and the left at the castle fulfilled this request. In addition to economic matters, there were a law on assemblies on the table, Change of the electoral law, Local government laws were widely wanted. But the case of the muzzle of the press decree with false rumors and insults became even more urgent, which the government issued in November. All parties condemned him in December, then in May the president declared almost the same, with a similar effect. The prime minister stood in the position, which he denied before, that a resolution of the Sejm is not enough to repeal the decree, a law is needed. When the Sejm demanded an extraordinary session, Mościcki opened it and closed it immediately. Such fun in "Hocki-Klocki" (According to the expression of the marshal) irresponsible elements were delighted in the country, which she had political freedom and the duties associated with her. Was also counted on a normal budget session, which the government could not close before adopting the budget; But Mościcki was also able to postpone this session, and after the fines expired (5 XI) close. The first ordinary Sejm of the Commonwealth except for a huge work (337 meetings) He could boast of mastery of the currency crisis, reinforced the treasury and defending the rule of law – too little, to gain popularity among the crowds, Since human hearts do not beat the institutions, Only towards live units. Enough, to withstand comparison with both the previous assembly, as with a series of the next. Among the uncontrollable class conflicts and under the pressure of hereditary Old Polish diseases, Poland has experienced what the disease is, which reasonable people call the crisis of parliamentarism, And in which dishonesty and intoxication see the bankruptcy of this democratic institution.
