Halina's point is well taken, and the article will not be removed. However, we
would ideally footnote the article posting with a statement that therse reports
were questionable (as per Roman's point). This would be consistent with our
purpose of research into these events. However, we are currently challenged
to make any changes to our web materials as we are between webmasters. I
invite Roman to composse an appropriate and brief footnote to be added to
the link when we are web-capable again.

The significance of the article is vested in the fact that the
article in question is part of A Forgotten Odyssey's 'Historical
Newspaper Archives.' It did appear in a Canadian source on
September 22, 1939. As an archived 1939 article, it is not subject
to revision in 2004. Of course, people are free to have their own
opinions and views on the matter.

On A Forgotten Odyssey site there is a Link to Kresy (item 4) from
the Newspaper-The Holocaust, what appears to be a copy of an article
in the "Daily Colonist" of Victoria, Canada, titled "Murderous Bands
of Ukrainian Terrorists Slay Polish Refugees", dated Sept.21,1939.
In the last paragraph it states "The Ukrainians took possesion of
Lwow,Stryj and Stanislawow,reports reaching the frontier said, and
for a time set up their own government."
I was born and lived my first 20 years in Stryj, and was there during
September 1939.
In my opinion, it is a gross mis-information and should not be
disseminated on A Forgotten Odyssey.
