(By The Associated Press) ~ BERLIN, Ma 3—Gcrma.ny mov- ed swiftly to ay to forestall in- clusion of northern European states in the British-French sponsored anti-a gresslon bloc and at the ssme time sought to isolate Pol- and, now considering German de- mands. Proposals have been sent to six Scandinavian and Baltic countries for bilateral pacts of non-aggres- sion which Foreign Office quarters indicated involved pledges, either specific or implied. on the part of those countries not to favor any other group of nations. What Chancellori-litler has laun- ched is a bold diplomatic offens- ive to destroy what he considers British and French efforts to en- ,clrcle his country. and to cripple _ Poland because she refused what he consders a generous offer to settle the Danzig and Pomorze (Polish Corridor) problems for at least 25 years. His hopes are that by isolating Poland he will force the Polish Foreign Minister. Colonel Joseph Back. to accept his terms. Responsible quarters indicate that these terms now include more than the mere return to Germany of the Free City of Dannlg and the grairkittin of an automobile and rail inal German conditions. The countries Hitler is known in be negotiating with are Denmark. Sweden. Norway. Finland. Latvia and Estonia. There was confidence here that Hungary. once consid- ered a friend Poland. would stick to Gennany.
