CLOSE POLISH WATCH
ON NEW NAZI TACTICS TO GET HOLD OF DANZIG
Warsaw, To-day.
The Polish authorities are closely watching what appears to be the development of a movement in Danzig to try economic methods in bringing about incorporation of the Free City in the Reich.
The clamour raised by Danzig against the Polish action in withdrawing customs inspectors from the margarine factory and restricting the im- portation of Danzig herrings, is regarded as significant.
Polish circles have been quick to point out that any attempt to open the Customs frontier with East Prussia, about which threats have been made in some Danzig quar- ters, would constitute a unilateral change in the status of the Free City, which Poland could not tolerate.
The Warsaw press declares that the reprisals were quite uncalled for, since Poland's action was taken in consequence of Danzig's treat- ment of Polish customs officials, and it is emphasised that repeated pro-- tests have been unavailing-Reuter.
