The State Service for the Protection of Monuments (Państwowa Służba Ochrony Zabytkow — PSOZ) has become fact. During the first days of the existence of the law ammended on 19 July 1990 regarding the protection of cultural objects and museums the Minister of Culture and Art defined the structure of the PSOZ („Monitor Polski" no 35, item 285, 26 September 1990). On 5 December of that same year, there appeared the first issue of the „Konserwatorski Kuryer", a bulletin issued by the PSOZ. Those two important facts constitute a meaningful announcement of a new style in managing our affairs. The complicated operation of nominations to posts of voivodship conservationists, which produce understandable emotional reaction, and the shitting of hundreds of employees of heretofore units to unified voivodship departments of the PSOZ, are being continued. It will be probably some time before all the cogs of the mechanism under construction will mesh with each other, and set into motion. Presumably, the organizational tasks will not hamper daily cooperation with services at the voivodship, municipal and rural commune evel. 1 here will certa.nly appear new problems, especially as regards cooperation with self-governments and their own conservationists Let us hope that these difficulties will be overcome during the course of their emergence, and in accordance with common sense At the moment, all the employees of the PSOZ are facing a time of great trial which will be a verification of their characters and qualifications since the social and economic reality of the Polish Republic in 1991 is extremely involved and entails ever new problems It would be an adverse situation of the changes which take place in the structure of the protection of cultural monuments became a goal in themselves since it was their intention only to regroup forces in order to act more effectively for the protection of national achievement than has been the case up to now. Undoubtedly, we still do not have satisfactory answers to all questions. But it is a fact that routine inspections, opinions, registrations and records can be realized without anv restrictions, and it is they, after all which form the foundation of every system of protecting historical heritaoe. Without a calm, everyday fulfillment of those tasks, the planned programmes of syntnesis, which toaay are the topic of so much discussion, will simply become unrealistic. Let us, therefore, get on witn our work 26 January 1991
