LONDON, July 11
The correspondent of "The Times" at Warsaw says that while the Press welcomes Mr. Chamberlain's statement as "both a warning and an appeal for common sense," Poland's readiness to show reasonableness in her relations with Danzig was demonstrated by an agreement to prolong for a further year the Polish-Danzig fishing agreement. Simultaneously a favourable sign came from Danzig, which permitted the: sale of ten banned Polish newspapers. . _~
Munitions, however, continue to enter the Free City, mainly hand
grenades.
The calling up of Danzigers for compulsory labour service has been extended to Poles. The works consist mainly of fortifications. Danzig Press ■ comment on Mr. Chamberlain remains bitter, the newspapers declaring that they are unable to believe the protestations of foreign Powers which have showed no interest in Danzig for twenty years.
