GREAT TENSION OVER DANZIG
THREAT TO INDEPENDENCE OF POLAND HERR HITLER EXPECTED TO ISSUE ULTIMATUM (United Press Assn. —Eleo. Tel. Copyrlgnt) (Received August 21, 11 a.m.) DANZIG, Aug. 20 “The hour now approaches,” Herr Foerster, leader of the Danzig Nazis, told a gathering of police- “When the hour comes we will win. The Fuehrer will solve the Danzig Corridor in the same way as he did in Sudetenland. ROME, Aug. 20 Signor Gayda says: “Poland has only a few more days to reflect. Does she want to bang the door to a reasonable solution or be overwhelmed in an adventure which threatens her independence? Her real friends should counsel her to turn from England and France and try at the eleventh hour directly to make contact with Germany. It is evident that the present tension cannot last longer than a few days. Other newspapers predict that Herr Hitler, either at Tannenberg or Nuremberg, will issue an ultimatum to Poland to come to terms or light.
