LONDON, SEPT. 1 (Reuter).—THE CORRESPON- DENCE BETWEEN GERMANY AND BRITAIN DURING THE PAST FEW DAYS WAS ISSUED IN THE FORM OF A WHITE PAPER TODAY.

An explanatory note shows that a dramatic attempt was made to save the situation on the last day of August.

Britain, replying to Germany on August 28th, made suggestions for direct discussions between Germany and Poland, and informed Germany, on Poland's authorisation, that Poland was ready at once to enter into direct discus- sions with Germany.

evening states that Warsaw was bombed six times today.

Fighting of a serious character continues on the whole length of the front, and was especially severe near Chojnice and Mwlawa, west and east of the Corridor, and also around Weilun, 120 miles southwest of Warsaw and in the Teschen region in Silesia.
