The author served in the General Inspectorate of the Armed Forces from 1931 to 1935, where he was adjutant to Marshal Jozef Pilsudski. On June 27, 1935, he was appointed major with seniority as of January 1, 1935 and ranked 79th in the infantry officer corps.

Between June and November 1935, he was in Brazil, Argentina and Paraguay as an official representative of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, investigating the possibility of settlement in the areas designated by Polish consular posts. On January 1, 1936, the then Prime Minister, Marian Zyndram-Kościałkowski, appointed him director of the Presidium Office. In May 1936, the new Prime Minister of the Republic of Poland, Major General Felicjan Slawoj Składkowski entrusted him with the organization of the Bureau of Special Tasks of the Prime Minister and appointed him as its director. In July and August 1936, he traveled through Siberia in the footsteps of Marshal Jozef Pilsudski's exile and the places of martyrdom of Polish insurgents and revolutionaries. In 1937 he headed a government mission to Madagascar - the so-called Study Commission, whose task was to identify the possibility of obtaining the island as a Polish colony or Jewish settlement area under the slogan Jews to Madagascar. On December 20, 1937, he became the second vice-president of the then-established Polish Society of Research Expeditions.
