Letters

The April 1996 issue of the SR, in which your authors criticized the management style of the Polish American Congress and described numerous Polish activities in this country as dreptanie w miejscu, deserves the following reminder from Henryk Sienkiewicz:
...zaczadzonym potrzeba dac zwiezego powietrza, watpiacym - nadziei, targanym niepokojem - troch spokoju.
Pisarz powinien krzepic zycie - nie zas podkopywac, uszlachetniac je - nie zas plugawic, niesc dobre nowiny - nie zas zle...
In other words, you goofed.
