The optimism of the chancelleries | is reflected on the security and commodity markets. Yet there is nothing definite in the news on which | to base a revivified optimism. Germany still makes {the same demands—Danzig and a lane across the | corridor. Germany also continues accumulating men | and war materials in Danzig—a process in itself con- | trary to treaty engagements and a legitimate basis for strong action by Poland. The leaders in Warsaw maintain their position. They say they will fight rather than yield Danzig. The British Government denies categorically that it is putting any pressure on Poland to give way. It denies many and Italy, despite persistent reports to that end. There are but two assumptions possible. One is that the British Foreign Office is “somewhat inaccu- |rate” in denying any negotiations are under way to |settle the matter peaceably. London was almost equally “firm” last August, yet was preparing to aban- don Czechoslovakia. If such negotiations are under way, that would explain the apparent quiescence of Germany ve nicely. The other assumption is that Berlin leaders are in error, believing England and France will not honor their pledges to Poland. Such an assumption leads to the belief that a new and very grave crisis will come, | perhaps in late August. Putting it succinetly, sthe two possibilities asily r { | | | | | war.
