Freemasonry Dissolved in Poland

A decree was issued yesterday dissolving Freemasonry in Poland. Its properties were confiscated and the proceeds of the sale will be handed over to charity.

Attempts to revive the masonic movement, the establishment of clandestine lodges, and so forth, will make those involved liable to five years' imprisonment and heavy fine.

Dissolution of the ladges was ordered by the Masonic leaders themselves a few moths ago when a violent anti-Masonic campaign was launched in the Sejm. The Government issued a decree to silence persons form all ranks who would probably have raised the Masonic issue again the new Parliament.
