Opieka duszpasterska nad Polakami we Francji do 1926 roku w ocenie ambasadora Alfreda Chłapowskiego
Pastoral Care of Poles in France before 1926 as Judged by Ambassador A. Chłapowski

Summary/Abstract: Polish emigration in France was almost exclusively represented by the Polish workers who were Roman Catholic most of the cases, and in vast majority attached to the Church – which was highlighted in a personal letter written by the Ambassador of Poland in Paris. Recognizing political influences and communities in which fellow countrymen worked, the Ambassador tried to remedy the status quo by the letter addressed to Cardinal A. Hlond. According to the letter, the work performed reasonably and sensibly by the Polish clergymen had a crucial impact upon the Polish emigration. Transmitting the related compiled dossier to the Primate, he judged the performance of the Polish pastoral care in France to the extent of opportunities and negligence in respect of the Church and Homeland before 1926.
