Stefan Olszowski, a veteran Polish politician ousted from his job as Communist Party propaganda chief last week, was appointed foreign minister by parliament.

Mr. Olszowski, who was foreign minister between 1971 and 1976, replaces Jozef Czyrek, who will concentrate on party work. Both are members of the Politburo, the party's top body.
