New and even more drastic revision of the Danzig Constitution may be rammed through the Free City Volkstag before a new League High Commissioner, still unappointed, arrives opposition circles feared today, according to the Havas News Agency.

Already holding 45 out of 72 seats in the Volkstag, just short of the legally required two-thirds majority, the Danzig Nazis can make up the difference by arresting a few more opposition deputies. They already control the senate.
