WARSAW, June 25.--If East and West
Prussia should declare their indepen-
dence and endeavor To open fresh ne
gotiations with the Allies they would
only be following the past tactics OF
Berlin. The possibility OF such a step
10 feared because 1t would postpone the
evacuation by the German military
forces OF the Polish districts under
the peace Greatly.
Similar obstruction and delay have
been successfully practised by Berlin
since November last. All efforts of the
Allies have not succeeded in arranging
the armisttce frontier. Near Posen the
Germans, still worry the Polish villages
with desultory sniplhg and lombard
naent - ....
As to DanEig the Germans were en-
gagged by the arnistice to allow traffic to
Poland. AS a matter OF fact there has
been repeated obstruction with the re-
suit that the port Is now congested with
British and American goods which the
Germans have. under one pretext or an
ether, found It convenient not to for =.
ward. -
