POLAND ACCUSES

German Secret Police Take
Railway Station-Hoist
Nazi SWastika

United Press Staff Correspondent


Warsaw, Aug. 31.-(UP)-A gov
eminent spokesman said today that
German secret policemen had &C.
cupied the railway station at Danzig
last night and had hoisted swastika
flags over it.
Asked whether Poland intended
to take action in Danzig as a result
the spokesman said none was
planned "at the moment"
The seizure OF the station, how
ever, following a long series of anti
Polish and allegedly German in
sp.red incidents in the free city,
raised the question in the minds of
foreign observers as to how far Po-
land intended letting Danzig author
tiles go before taking action.
The customs, railroad and port
business were the three phases OF
Danzig's life which Poland always
had said it would never permit the
Nazis to dominate. But In the past
few days Poland has reported the
arrest of Polish customs authorities
IN Danzig and the seizure of three
train loads OF materials bound to
Poland through the port.
Just What Would Happen
The railway station incident
caused foreign observers to wonder
Just what would happen if Adolf
Hitler suddenly were to retreat from
his extreme demands and express
himself satisfied with Danzig alone.
Although the government has re-
iterated that it would not permit
the union of Danzig with Germany,
