ELECTION CAMPAIGN. NAZI TRIUMPH PREDICTED. * HOLIDAY SPIRIT MANIFEST. united Tress Assn. — Elec. Tel. Copyright. (Received April G, 2.30 p.m.) WARSAW, April 5. “As long as the Visitula flows in the same direction as to-day, there will be no change in Danzig,” declared M. Lechnieki, the Under-secretary of Slate, replying to General Uocring’s speech, winch has caused considerable indignation in ollleial circles as savouring of anncxalionisin, but an official protest to the League is not likely. It is anticipated that 80 per cent, of the Danzig electorate will vote Nazi, after which the Government is expected to recast the constitution, making it less democratic, for which the League’s consent is essential. As such consent is not likely, speculation has begun ns to whether Germany 8n Danzig will confront the League with un fait accompli. DANZIG, April 5. There arc scenes similar to those in the Saar before live election. Arches of evergreens span the streets, Herr Hitler’s portrait is in numerous shop windows and illuminated swastikas arc on the. roof-tops. Everything has been done to give a holiday air to the Nazis’ bid for power.
