SERIOUS CHARGES
Claim Is Made That League Had De-
cision Made Before Danzlg's Arg
uments were Heard.

Danzig, Sept, Fl Up The charges
that the League of Nations council
had Its decision, unfavorable TO the
FREQ city OF Danzig, lin Its pocket"
three days before Damages repre-
sentative was heard In the Polish
letter box dispute was made today
by the Danziger Heitung, which Oft
en- reflects the views OF President
Sahm.
The newspaper bases its charge
upon an item broadcast by the Pol
ish telegraph agency, the semi-offi
cial Polish News Bureau, in which
the decision pronounced three days
later by the league council was pre-
dicted with surprising accuracy Of
detail.
The Danzigcr Zeitung character
ICES the hearing before the league
council as a comedy, and adds:
"Danzigs people never will acknow-
ledge the Geneva decision as just"
The council or the League or Ma
lions on Saturday unanimously vote
against proposal by President
Sahm of the Danzig senate to resub-
nit the Polish letter box dispute to
the permanent court of internation-
al justice. Before the vote Lord
Cecil declared that the dispute had
troubled the council long enough
and that it must be RELOCATED to the
background.
Poland's right to establish a pos
tai service in Danzig was upheld by
the world court last May, and IL
commission of experts appointed by
the league subsequently decided that
letter boxes could be placed through
out the entire business quarter or
the post.
