DANISH FRONTIER
CLAIMS OF THE GERMAN MINORITY REJECTED BY FOREIGN MINISTER. CO-OPERATION OF NORTHERN COUNTRIES. LONDON, April 14. The “Times” Copenhagen corresThe “Time's"' Copenhagen correspondent says that after the revolver incident (reported in an earlier cablegram), Pastor Schmidt, representing the German Minority in Parliament, declared that Danes were narrowminded in claiming that the present German-Danish frontier, established by the Treaty of Versailles, could be permanent. Germans and Danes ought to discuss revision. He added that Denmark need not view Austria’s fate, as Germany did not intend to use force. Pastor Schmidt admitted that Germans enjoyed better cultural conditions in Denmark than elsewhere, but the position was completely unsatisfactory in principle.
M. Munch, Foreign Minister, immediately replied that the frontier was not open to revision. He added that all the northern countries took the same view. He also referred to the forthcoming negotiations for military co-ordination between the northern countries. The Nazis in South Jutland are meeting today to examine an extensive programme, including a demand for the re-connection of South Jutland with the German market.
