Abstract
Silesia, depopulated, mined, and ravaged during the last furious days of the war and the first months of Russian occupation, has been restored and populated in a relatively short time. The Polish Government has been aware from the beginning that the only chance to counter successfully the anticipated demands for restoration of the “Recovered Territories” to Germany, was the rapid settlement of this area by the Poles and its economic integration with the rest of Poland.1
