[by CABLE —PRESS ASSN. —COPYRIGHT.
WARSAW, May 13
An official communique says that any attempt to alter the present state of affairs in Danzig will result in immediate action by the Polish forces, which are at present in readiness for war.
The communique was issued because of reports from Danzig that the Nazis are hopeful that Poland will remain inactive if a putsch is staged.
INFLUX OF GERMANS. (Recd. May 15. 12.30 p.m.). WARSAW, May 14. The Press reports that 40,000 young Germans, ostensibly tourists, have entered Danzig in the past ten days. They are expected to participate in a parade of Danzig’s Brown Shirts nad Black Guards, to-morrow, which the authorities are not seeking to prevent.
Political circles do not expect a putsch at present, but voting papers similar to those used in the Nazi plebiscites are reported to have been printed in Danzig.
