Wo reject a, warlike solution of 100 P et ' cent," said the official German spokesman in a special statement. "We maintain our demands for the unconditional return of Danzig to the Reich, but Herr I filler is convinced that this can be achieved peacefully. Ilcrr Hitler and his Government are di tcrmincd fo achieve Danzig's return. We do riot desire to create a crisis as a means of solving tiio problem, and we definitely do not expect any so-called August crisis.'' Referring to Germany's military measures, lie said: "We cannot overlook the possibility of a non-peaceful -olutiori. despite our wishes and intentions. Whatever military measures we have taken or may take will not bo a threat but purely a defensive preparaI ion." Poles Expected to Yield. In reply to a question as to how long Germany is willing to wait for a peace°tnl solution, the spokesman answered: "Not years, but probably months. The German view is that" the Postelau incident (the shooting of a Polish guard by a Danziger) is closed." The spokesman indicated that Germany expected the Poles ultimately to yield, perhaps agreeing to a general l'olo-German settlement, including such points as a German guarantee of the frontiers. The Nazis were convinced that when the time came Britain would urge I'oland to make concessions. The spokesman added that ho was reflecting, most faithfully, the attitude of Herr Hitler and the Government.

Though the belief persists that Britain is bluffing, it is expected that she would go farther than Munich, but finalhwould not fight for Danzig.

Dr. Ley, leader of the Nazi Labour Front, fresh from Berchtesgaden, said: " The Fuehrer does not think of war, he desires peace and order."
