.NAZI PRESS HAS
 SCORED BRITAIN
Circulates 'Impudent Lies About Germany; Hitler
 Awaits Chamberlain
BY JOSEPH w. GREGG Jnited Press Staff COrrespOnder

United Press Staff Corresp0ndent)
 Berlin, March 31-(UP) - The controlled Nazi Press today de- nounced Great Britain for "impu- dent lies" designed to build up new European crisis and further policy of encirclement of Germany.
 Adolf Hitler's next move may be dependent on Britain's action re- garding military aid to Poland.
 Diplomatic quarters made no eff fort to conceal their fears that the International situation was becom- ing grave again.
 "Impudent English lies about German ultimatum to Poland" read the newspaper Nachtausgable head line. Invented reports of troop movements"
 "A new lying maneuver by Eng land against Germany" the angrif1s, newspaper of propaganda Minister Joseph Goebbels, said. "Old tactics of May, 1938."
 Spreading False Reports
 The Angriff charged Britain with attempting to further its policy of encirclement of Germany by spreading false reports of German troop movements toward Poland.
 'They are obviously preparing for political action and making it palat- able to the Englis hpublic by scar ing 1t in advance" the newspaper said. Such methods can only dam age England's reputation" Government quarters tensely awaited a statement by Prime Min ister Neville Chamberlain in the British house of commons.
 It was understood that Adolf Hit Ter would not decide until he had heard Chamberlain what line he would take in speech at Wilhelm Shafen tomorrow at the launching of the 35,000 ton battleship Won Tirpitz.
 No Troops Near Poland
 Well informed quarters denied that there had been any German troop concentrations near the Po- fish frontier. At the same time they said that for geographical reasons East Prussian garrisons had always been among the strongest in Germany.
 Col. Josef Beck, Polish foreign minister, was due to pass through Berlin by train late Sunday on his way to London. No conversations were scheduled with German offi- cialS but it was believed Beck might stop off here on his way home.
 As the government awaited Chamberlain's statement, the board of directors of the important ship building firm of Howaldtswerke at Kiel announced that after negotia- tions with the navy high command, it had been decided to hand over its shipyards at Kiel to the govern ment immediately.
