LEAGUE OF NATIONS
THE POLISH DISTURBANCES A DELICATE SITUATION
(United Press Association—By Eleotrio Telegraph—Copyright)
A most delicate situation awaits the meeting of the League of Nations Council on 19th January, as the outcome of Polish disturbances over German minorities. Germany has already despatched to the League three Notes complaining that persons of German origin were being deprived of votes. Germany also is sending Dr. Curtius to Geneva to make most serious charges against Poland. It is likely that Mr Henderson will he asked to preside in view of Britain’s neutrality. ■ It is alleged that Polish terrorism occurred in the corridor districts, which is one of Europe’s danger spots. It is generally considered that Poland is in the wrong, an early admission of which would ease the tension.
France, who is Poland’s ally, favours an inquiry, hut other Powers consider that the League Council should give a decision on the evidence available without further delay.
