Reports suggest Hitler may delay annexation amid British and French pressure with a possible Danzig visit around July 26. France is unlikely to object. Germany is not required to notify Poland of the visit.

America Will Mediate If Invited Amid European Talks
U S officials said Washington could act as a friendly intermediary in European settlement if invited. If another power calls a conference and Germany and Italy agree to participate, the United States might join. The House passed a revised neutrality bill overriding President Roosevelt, sending a bill to the Senate where isolationists threaten to prolong debate. The measure bans arms sales and loans to belligerents unless credits or essential commerce allowed, and gives the President power to deny warehousing and transit of arms through U S ports. A major change removes the phrase implements of war, broadening belligerent access to airplanes oil and other substan tial commodities under certain conditions.
