*A "Trans-Ocean" message this morning claimed that Britain and France informed Warsaw that obligations in the Anglo-Polish Pret would not become effective with regard to Danzlg or the ques tion of minorities. Mr. Chamberlain made it quite clear a fortnight ago that the Pollsh Government would decide when and if he were "at- tacked and that Danzig therefore came within the scope of the pact.

Poland Will Not Negotiate

Paris, May, 1.

The Polish Government will, ac- cording to the "Paris Soir", decline' to negotiate with Germany con- cerning Danzig and the Polish Corridor.
