A. INTRODUCTION
This directory, intended as a general reference work, outlines the administrative
structures and gives the incumbents of positions of major political, governmental, and
socio-cultural organizations and institutions in Poland. Although gaps and discrepancies
are inevitable in a study of this type, every effort has been made to incorporate all
information on personnel and organizations from published sources available in the
Biographic Information Division through August 31, I960. Earliest and latest dates of
identification are expressed in month-year. Precise dates are given whenever the earliest
date is the date of appointment or election. Section E (index of Names) is an alphabetic
register of all names cited in the directory and lists for each individual appropriate
page references. In seme cases an individual may be listed one or more times on a given
page; in the index, however, only a single reference to that page will appear under the
individual's name. The user should therefore scan the page thoroughly for all possible
references
All corrections and suggestions as well as requests for additional information on
any of the individual's herein should be addressed to the Biographic Information Division,
Department of State.
