The unusual tension with which the declaration of Senate's Prest- dent Grelser before the Danzig Parliament on the question of foreign policy and retrenchment scheme for putting the finances of the Free City of Danzig on a sound footing was awaited, was apparent from the fact that all the diploma-ut less than two weeks rest will tic benches were filled, prominent be required in order that His Me among those present being the jesty may recover his usual health.

Greiser spoke with almost brutal frankness in explaining the present, critical financial economic position in Danzig. He said that measures the Senate would be forced to take would be of a dras tic
character. but unavoidable under the circumstances, but the Government would face the situa tion and renounce popularity since the future of the population as a whole is required for that sacri- Ace.
Greiser first dealt with the foreign political situation express

"Golden freedom will never be sold for money".
It was with the utmost reluctance that the Danzig Government have decided to impose control on the purchase and sale of foreign currencies because such restrictions Inevitably implies considerable -economic drawbacks for the Free City in its capacity of a transit port and place of transhipment and necessarily inhibits freedom of movement of the business world. But, sald Greiser, it is now no longer a question of the fate of individuals but of the state itself.
