	Wojciech Korfanty a sprawa Slaska
		Korfanty stracił jednak z czasem popularność i wsparcie polityczne zdobyte z początkiem kadencji poselskiej.

		Wojciech Korfanty urodził się w 1873 roku w Sadzawce (obecnie Siemianowice Śląskie) w rodzinie górniczej

	HISTORY (1881-1921)
		Hopes of Upper Silesians connected with the union with Poland were evoked by the defeat of Germany in the war of 1914-1918 and the fact that Poland gained its independence.
		An activity of an outstanding politician, Wojciech Korfanty and three uprisings, 1919-1920-1921 were an expression of those hopes.
		The uprising ideas found their artistic expression in a bronze monument, The Monument of the Silesian Insurgents, (the sculpture - Gustaw Zemla, the architecture - Wojciech Zablocki) which was erected at Rondo (the roundabout) in 1967 (on the grounds of the former Tiele-Winckler's court park).

		Wojciech Korfanty, polski komisarz plebiscytowy i niekwestionowany przywódca śląskich Polaków, potajemnie dowiedział się tego dnia, że Komisja Międzysojusznicza nadzorująca plebiscyt postanowiła przydzielić większość spornych terenów Niemcom.
		Choć polityczna decyzja o rozpoczęciu powstania zapadła na przedwczorajszym zebraniu kierownictw konspiracji cywilnej i wojskowej, choć zaprzysiężeni powstańcy od ponad 20 godzin wydobywają ze skrytek broń i potajemnie przenoszą ją w rejony koncentracji oddziałów uderzeniowych, to jednak formalny rozkaz o rozpoczęciu walki zbrojnej podpisać musi Wojciech Korfanty.
		Korfanty, który chwilę wahań nad kartką z rozkazem ma już za sobą, twardo odpowiada premierowi, że powstania odwołać już nie można.

	POLAND, PART 4 (TEXT AND IMAGES)
		The Polish mining villages had given their hearts to the charismatic Wojciech Korfanty, who had represented them in the German Reichstag and who was to be the only politician in independent Poland with a local support so strong that he could defy the influence of Warsaw.
		Korfanty belonged to the Christian Democrats, a Catholic party formed in 19°2 to block the advance of socialism in the working class.
		The result, on 3 May 192 I, was a third Polish rising led by Korfanty and helped by the passive support of the French occupation troops, which ended after several months of savage fighting with the Poles in possession of most of Upper Silesia.

		Eleven of the politicians arrested in 1930 were sentenced to prison, but a number of them—including Witos and Herman Lieberman, a socialist—managed to leave the country and emigrate.
		Also in emigration was the Christian-democrat politician, Wojciech Korfanty, the popular leader of the Silesian uprisings of 1919-20 and another politician who had been prosecuted.
		This agreement was forged under the patronage of Paderewski, who had been living abroad since 1924, and the group became known as the Morges Front, after the town in Switzerland where his house was situated.
