FRANCO'S HINT
BRITISH COMMUNICATIONS DANZIG NOT WORTH WAR SPAIN'S NEUTRALITY TAGGED (Received July 14, 11.40 p.m.) BURGOS, July 14 General Franco, In a statement, said: "I refuse to believe there will he war. There is no question that cannot be settled peacefully. Danzig is not worth a war, from which Poland would gain nothing. "A war would in any event be fatal for Poland, and it would inevitably compromise Britain's communication system constituting her imperial structure. "Britain should rejoice if Italy, Spain and Portugal are united in the same ideology, friendship and affection, because they allow her to be their friend. "Spain will remain neutral if her territory and interests are not affected." General Franco has accepted an invitation to visit Italy in September.
