Caption: Reports, rumor and fact continued to pour Monday from the Free City of Danzig, but there were no tangible evidences that there were any military movements that might bring war to Europe. In the free city the Nazi senate issued a decree to mobilize workers for service "vital to the state" in the event of emergency. The Nazi leader there is Albert Forster.... Sunday he said that Danzigers were ready to give "blood and life" in order to return to Germany. The center picture was made in the free city during a recent rally at the Schaferplatz stadium at which Forster reviewed his uniformed storm troops.
