Re: Poles in Lwf

There was a very strong Polish community in the Ruhr area coming from Poland and/or upper Silesia working as steel workers or miners. They kept their Polish newspaper well into the 1920s as well as they are still bearing their -wski or -ek names until today. Same goes for Austrians of Slavian origin (polish, czech, slovakian, slowenian, ruthenian, ukrainian, croatian, bosnian etcetc.).Alone the names in Germany showing different origins should have proven the Nazi racial ideology as complete nonsense.
