HITLER’S PLAN
MAY BE PUT INTO EFFECT IN FEW DAYS GERMANY AND DANZIG SETTLEMENT ; OPINION IN OFFICIAL CIRCLES i rU.PA.-bj Electric- Telegraph-Copyright! (Received 19th August., 1.45 p.m.) LONDON, 18th August. “The Times” Berlin correspondent says that it would be as a big a disaster to Germany to turn back now as lose a war, according to the declaration of one Nazi spokesman. There is reason to believe that Herr Hitler’s plan for the settlement of Danzig may be put into effect in the next few days. The “Allgemeine Zeitung” says that one can count on the fingers of one’s hands how many more days the Poles will be masters of the situation. . Official circles emphasise that Germany will not forego any demands, whatever the cost. It appears that the British and French attitude is at last appreciated but too late to enable Germany to back down. The anti-Polish press atrocity cam-' paign has been increased but is not impressing the public, whose attitude is worried apathy. “The Times” Warsaw correspondent ! says that the German troop movements | are not yet so abnormal as to be conj centrations for an immediate attack, i but the Poles are watchful.
