BY FRANK SMOTHERS,

Chicago Daily News Foreign Correspondent
BERLIN, July 20 1By Radio -
Days of exceptional doubt and un.
certainty have come to the man in
the street and foreign observers in
Berlin. They appear likely to con-
tinue for weeks ahead.
Amid unconfirmed rumors of feel.
ers toward peace negotiations" or
Danzlg, amid denials and recrop-
pings of these rumors in VARYING
dress, two facts appear to stand oul
here:
The Nazi high command, iudg-
ing from the tone of its press, is
distinctly concerned by signs of
dynamic activity on the part of
England, France and Poland-so
different from the Anglo-French
pussyfooting which paved the
way to Munich.
Whether or not Fuehrer Adolf
Hitler is determined, in the face
OF this opposition, to push for
the annexation of Danzig in the
early months. German military
preparations proceed without a
letup. Foreign observers esti-
mate that these preparations are
little bit ahead-perhaps two
weeks ahead-of the stage they
had reached at this time last year
as Hitler marched forward to the
september peace of Munich"
Trenches Dug Near Poland.
Germany Is estimated to have
some 100000 men under arms at
present. Digging of trenches about
10 miles this side of the Polish from
tier has continued. Strengthening
of forts on the western front also is
reported proceeding.
Some three divisions of German
troops are understood to be in the
recently fortified region of the
Slovak-Moravian frontier-of obyi-
Gus fianking utility in the event of
war with Poland and perhaps an
intended safeguard against anv fu-
ture emergency of Polish HUNGARIAN
military collaboration. Military prep
aratlons within Danzig also the un-
derstood to be continuing.
Large-scale annual German army
maneuvers are scheduled to begin
around mid-August, including Pom
ersnia. facing Poland.
The preliminaries of these ma
neuvers have been under way since
spring. At the expected culmina-
ton point late in August. Germany's S
men under arms will have some
what increased, it is believed-to a
total OF perhaps 2000,O 900, including
the army. navy and air force.

Polish Effort Expected
To LocoIize Incident

WARSAW, July 20 LP).-The fatal
shooting of Polish border guard
near the Danzig frontier today in
: tensified the strain on Polish -Danzig
relations, but foreign circles believed
Poland would do everything possible
to localize the incident.
1t was assumed full indemnity for
the killing would be asked.
A report that the Danzig Senate
was prompt in expressing regrets
was seen as a potential factor to
soothe Polish feeling.
The early afternoon press in War
saw made no mention of the Incl
dent. but in the port of Gdynia
public opinion had reached a high
pitch
The version of the shooting which
circulated in Gdynia, differing con-
siderably from the Danzig version,
was reported based on a deposition
by the widow of the slain border
guard. She was said to have wit
messed the shooting while bringing
lunch to her husband.
According to this deposition, a
Danzig customs official and two S. A.
men (storm troopers in uniform
crossed the border from Postelau.
In Free City territory. to Bozepole,
In Poland.
1t said they were seen by the
guard, Vitold Budziewicz, who ran
forward to challenge them, at the
same time unslinging his rifle from
his shoulder.
Before the Pole could bring his
rifle even into a warning position.
however, the deposition stated. one
OF the Danzig men fired a revolver,
the bullet striking Budziewicz in the
abdomen. The three Danzigers i'm
mediately returned to Danzig.

out, would be done for annual ma

necessary for these normal maneuv-
ers Is the obliteration of license

many and certain amount of troop
movement in that region at night.
Wants Warless Conquest.
None OF these preparations prove
that Hitler will risk war. But 1t
is not proved that he will not. What
Is clear here, in either case, is that
he wants his military preparations
to bolster his chances for another
conquest without fighting for it.
The only big, bright spots from
the German point of view at present
are: Britain's involvement with the
Japanese; the apparent deadlock
IN the Anglo Russian negotiations.
the failure OF the American Congress
TO hit the arms embargo.
A major shift in any or all of these
factors, most students believe. would
decrease the chances of Hitlers
gambling on Danzig showdown.
