Bryniolf Bjorset Gives Inter
esting Talk Under Voters'
League Auspices.
"Hitler li uniting Europe, but
It la against himself, said Bryn
iolf Bjorset, Norwegian refugee
addressing an audience at the
high school auditorium last
night. Mr. Bjorset, brought here
by the Jackson County League
of Women Voters, predicted that
the war would be over in ap
proximately a year, that England
woud win and that eventually
a new Europe with a central
government of some sort would
result.
The speaker prefaced his talk
with the statement that he "wa
not trying to drag America Into
the war," and said he was not
connected with any agency, or
ganization or mission to rpread
propaganda.
Not Invincible
"Germany's army is not In
vincible," Bjorset declared while
relating his experiences rtnrin"
the invasion or Norway. "Such
success as Hitler's armies have
had is not due to superior train
ilng or military technique but to
sheer mass force due to over
whelming numbers of planes and
mechnnlzed units."
Internal discord, If not actual
revolution, is brewing In Ger
many In the opinion of Bjorset.
He repeated experiences of his
own tending to prove that there
Is much dissension between the
German army and the Gestapo,
and said that an Informant, re
aiding in Germany, had sent him
a secret message last December
to the effect that conditions were
ripe for revolution.
Contrary to the general belief
In this country, German youth
Is not well impressed with
nazism, Bjorset said, adding that
older men who have been as
sociated with Hitler over many
years are his most fanatical sup
porters. But even many of these,
including Hess, are beginning to
doubt the wisdom of present poli
cies, such as the Russian alliance
and counterance of communism,
Bjorset said. The audience
showed much interest in his
statement that Hess was an ideal
ist who escaped to England In a
sincere attempt to bring peace
to Europe, and Incidentally to
save his own life.
.Invasion Impracticable
Germany cannot successfully
Invade England, according to
Bjorset. The attempt has been
made, more than once, he said
and added that England was
saved by supplies from this na
tion and "by certain other aid
the exact- nature of which Is
not known generally."
In describing the invasion of
Norway, which the speaker de
clared was extremely unpopular
with the common Gormnn sol
dier. Mr. Bjorset said. English
attacks were successful as far
as they went, but were called
off by lack of supplies. "The
entire course of the war would
have been changed had Norwav
been prepared to fight, and had
the Scandinavian people been
united." he stated. The speaker
said that the purpose of the in
vasion was mainly to gain con
trol of the shipping, but that
this had not been successful and
that 90 per cent of the Nor
wegian ships were still operating
independently.
Quisling A "Nut"
"Quisling is not so much a
traitor as he is simply 'nuts',"
Bjorset declared in commenting
on the German controlled gov
ernment. He believes that Quis
ling will shortly be put out of
power and that Germany will
attempt tighter control of that
country.
Elaborating on his statement
that Hitler's Ideology is losing
ground, Bjorset declared that as
each country is dominated and
n occupation army sent in, these
men gradually become imbued
with the spirit of democracy
through association with the con
quered peoplos. Entire regi
ments of men have to be re
moved from Norway, France and
other countries and sent back
to Germany because they become
"undependable," ha said. He
believes that these men are now
becoming th foundation for
counter-nazi feeling In Germany.
Germany is not successful in
her attempt to nazify the con
quered nations, according to the
speaker. He related that a free
press is gradually returning in
Norway, with mimeographed
publications being circulated
secretly, and that through the
medium of the church and the
theatre anti-nazi forces were at
work.
If education of youth, both In
this country and In Europe was
along proper medical and psy
chological lines, it would pre
vent emotional and mental mass
orgies leading to the present
world chaos, the Norwegian de
clared. He believes that such
education would grow out of a
new order In Europe, with a cen
tral government coordinating
military, political and economic
patterns, and that a new high
standard of living could be
achieved.
Answering a question, Bjorset
stated that the food situation was
extremely critical in Belgium.
Poland and France and pointed
out that while public opinion
generally favored sending food
to these nations, that no satis
factory plan of doing so without
the supplies leaking into Ger
many had yet been evolved,
Mr. Bjorset was introduced
by Mrs. Leonard Carpenter, pre
sident of the league. This morn
ing he left Med ford in the com
pany of a cousin, George Bjor
set of Cottage Grove, for a short
vacation at Diamond lake.
