POLAND FIRM. Patriotic Meetings In The Corridor Admitted. BERLIN ADVISES CAUTION. United Press Association.—Copyright. (Received 10.30 a.m.) LONDON, March 27. Semi-official quarters in Berlin draw attention to anti-German demonstrations of the Polish Western League, at Bromberg. They allege attacks against women and children. Official circles continue to deny any move against Danzig, and hint that Poland would be well advised to be cautious in her dealings with Germany. At Warsaw it is admitted that patriotic meetings were held in the Corridor, but maltreatment of the German minority is denied. It is reliably stated that Poland informed Germany that conversations regarding Danzig's future status are out of the question. Authoritatively nothing is known of a serious incident at Bromberg. Minor incidents involving Poles and Germans are frequent, but the language of the Berlin statement is not justified, it is declared. Colonel Beck, Polish Foreign Minister, will arrive in London on April 3 as the guest of the Government. Conversations will begin next day.
