Secretary of War Henry L. Stimson has found “no sufficient reason” for ousting from the Army’s School of Military Government the Polish politician, Major Michael Grazynski; who was charged with having an anti-Jewish and anti-democratic record while serving as governor of the province of Silesia, in Poland, it was learned here today. Mr. Stimson came to this conclusion following an investigation by “an appropriate agency of the War Department” to which he had referred the complaints against Grazynski.
Secretary Stimson’s decision was disclosed in a letter addressed to Rep. Emanuel Celler of New York who asked for an investigation of the Grazynski case. The letter, dated Sep. 6, read:
“I wish to advise you that after consideration of pertinent information available to the War Department, it was concluded that no sufficient reason existed for relieving Major Grazynski from duty as a student at the School of Military Government, Major Grazynski’s status was merely that of a student at the School of Military Government, to which he was admitted at the request and upon the nomination of the Polish Government-in-Exile. He completed the course of instruction there with his class during the month of August and reverted to the position he occupied before entering the school. He holds no position in the Army of the United States, nor, so far as is known to the War Department, in any other branch of our Government.
