Poland is celebrating the “Day of the Sea” throughout the country today, when demonstrations and speeches stress the necessity of Polish access to the Baltic Sea.
The opinion is held here that a German-Polish showdown is not likely till late in the summer Government circles .are surprisingly calm and consider the recent German action in Danzig to be merely gestures. As a climax to Navy Week, 80,000 persons, including a delegation from Danzig, demonstrated today in Granwald Square, Gdynia, and took a mass oath to maintain Poland’s access to the Baltic Sea. The square commemorates the Polish victory over the Teutons. President Moscicki in a broadcast said: “The nation’s war-won coast and corridor are the air and sun of our existence. We will preserve this outlet no matter how great our adversary and how heavy the pressure.” (Earlier messages on page 9.)
