WARSAW, Poland - Premier
Wojciech Jaruzelski dropped five
Cabinet members yesterday in a
reshuffle aimed at rescuing Poland's
economy and easing criticism from the
independent union Solidarity. But he
also told the giant labor federation to
rid itself of "anti-socialist
troublemakers."
The five Cabinet members Jaruzelski
dropped were Deputy Premier Henryk
Kisiel, Justice Minister Jerzy Bafia, In=
ternal Trde Minister Adam Kowalik,
Communications Minister Zbgniew
Rudnicki, and Jerzy Gawrysiak, head
of the price commission:
KISIEL WAS planning commission
chief and a former finance minister.
Jaruzelski said Kisiel was dropped for
"health reasons," but a recent report
on the economy prepared under his
guidance was harshly criticized and
rejected by both the Parliament and
Jaruzelski.
He has also been criticized by the
Polish news media in a period when
many officials have come under fire or
been ousted for their role in leading the
nation into economic crisis.
He also condemned the spread of
"anti-Soviet" leaflets in Poland,
saying, "We cannot force anyone into
accepting feelings that are alien to him
but we will not allow madmen to set fire
to our joint home.'
MEANWHILE, THE Kremlin soun-
ded yet another warning on Poland
yesterday, only two days after it bluntly
criticized Jaruzelski and Communist
Party leader Stanislaw Kania by name
and virtually demanded their ouster for
failing to halt the nation's
liberalization.
"Dirty, slanderous inventiops and at-
tacks on the Soviet Union," were still
circulating in Warsaw in the form of
homemade leaflets, the official Soviet
news agency Tass said, adding that the
people circulating the leaflets were
doing so "without punishment."
Ten months of labor unrest have

prompted fears of Soviet-led Warsaw
Pact intervention in Poland. U.S.
Secretary of State Alexander Haig, in a
Hong Kong news conference Friday,
warned the Kremlin against any such
move.
ALTHOUGH Jaruzelski did not men-
tion the Kremlin by name, clearly the
grim tone of his speech was related to
Moscow's blunt demand two days
earlier for a change in the Polish
leadership - and the leadership's
defiance of that demand.
"The country is again on the brink of
catastrophe. The fate of the nation is in
danger," Jaruzelski said. '"When a ship
is sinking, the crew helps the leader-
ship," he said.
"When the Polish ship is on the san-
dbar and sinking, it seems more impor-
tant for some to attack the captain
rather than save the' vessel,"
Jaruzelski said in a speech to
Parliament.
At least 30 ministers have been
criticized in the press for contributing
to Poland's economic crisis and some
have been investigated for fraud and
mismanagement. Two former
ministers who had been criticized
committed suicide last month.
