'Not Alarming'
London, Aug, 16. ? Great Bri
tain was said by official circles
tonight to view the Danzig situa
tion as "serious, but not alarm
ing."
British officials attributed the
increasing flood of "peace" and
"war" rumors to what they called
Germany's "war of neryes."
Talk in Berlin of an imminent'
"development" on the Danzig situ- ,
ation, they said, was intended to
heighten European tension to such 1
an extent that Poland would make
concessions.
The reports of "peace plans"
were said to be intended to speed I
matters by causing Poland td sus- '
pect that Great Britain might re- j
turn to the discarded policy of ,
"appeasement."
Belief was expressed in official
circles that Adolf HIMer had no in
tention of immediate use of force
to settle the problem. It was add- 1
ed, however, that this possibility
must not be excluded.
There was anxiety lest some
incident such as that of the kill
ing of a Polish soldier on the
Danzig frontier today might touch
off the powder keg.
The food stamp plan for dis
tributing surplus agricultural com
modities .will be expanded grad
ually during the next few months,
possibly to include low-income
workers.
Forty-two Eastern North Caro
lipa counties have been designated
by the AAA to receive winter le
gume seed urfder an enlarged
grant-of-aid plan that* was begun
last year on a small scale.
