Sir Arthur Willert, noted journalist and formerly of the British Foreign Office staff, in an article to the North American Newspaper Alliance, discusses the possibility of a totalitarian move to give Herr Hitler his windowdressing while saving Poland from the fate of Czechoslovakia.

He mentions the suggestion, of which more will be heard, for an East European version of the Locarno Treaty under which. assured of assistance by the (ireat Powers if any signatory attacks her, Poland would feel strong enough to allow the statute of Danzig to be so altered as to enable Herr Hitler to proclaim that it safeguarded Germans from Polish domination.

The chief difficulty here, as in 1925, is the inclusion of Russia.

Referring to the (iertnan assumption of Britain's lack of hardness of will, exemplified by the surrender of the four Chinese at Tientsin. Sir Arthur Willert says that London is nerving itself for a violent crisis. The word has gone to the appropriate authorities to be prepared for anything.

RESTFUL HOME.

Hitler's Desire To Live In

Quiet And Peace.

COMMISSIONER'S VISIT

Independent Cable Service. LONDON, August 16.

Following a Polish ultimatum the Danzig Nazi leader, Herr Albert Foerster, called on Dr. Karl Burckhardt, League Commissioner, and told him Herr Hitler wanted to see him so that he could personally report on the difficulties with the Danzig people, says the "Daily Express" Danzig correspondent.

Dr. Burckhardt, eager to help, flew with Herr Foerster to Berchtesgaden on Friday. On arrival at Herr Hitler's mountain retreat, Dr. Burckhardt complimented the Fuehrer on the restfulness of his home.

Herr Hitler replied: Yes. I would like to live here always in quiet and peace.

Dr. Burckhardt: The peace of the world is in your hands, your Excellency T

Herr Hitler: No, I am afraid it is not in my hands. I want peace, but there are others who do not.

Herr Hitler is alleged to have unfolded a plan for the cession of Danzig to Germany, preserving a free port for the Poles, and the building of two motor roads across the Corridor, one German and the other Polish. He emphasised his desire for peace, and added: "Last year my advisers tried to put the brakes on me, and now I am putting the. brakes on them."

Dr. • Burckhardt: Is a settlement still possible between Germany and the Poles on the lines of your proposals?

Herr Hitler shrugged his shoulders and said: "The Poles are in pretty deeply now."
