waved a document which he said
had been found in Germany m
which the entire political and
military preparations for the ac
tion in Worway were ouiiuitu
for Hitler by Rosenberg.
Prosecutor Schodjt said Hitler
personally had disclosed to his
deputies that Germany's "au-
dacious step m invaaing ior
wav was taken on the basis of
repeated advice from Quisling
who warned that delay would be
risky.
The document which Schodjt
waved before the court was
broueht from Germany by an
American officer and three Nor
wegian officials operating under
the auspices of the office of Jus
tice Robert H. Jackson, chief U.
S. prosecutor of criminals.
The surprise disclosure came
as Quisling presented a 21,000
word 69-page statement detail
ing his own defense.
Defiant "Patriot"
. Defiantly picturing himself as
a patriot and a prophet, the man
whose name has become a syn
onym for collaboration declared
that "Hitler has proved to be
right it is not England who has
eventually won, but bolshe

aim as far as beating Germany
goes, but in Russia an even more
dangerous continental power
has arisen," Quisling declared.
He demanded "rehabilitation
and indemnification for the in
sults, and harm" he said had
been 'heaped upon him.

"But, of course, misinforma
tion of actual facts can cause
condemnation from many people.
We have this much to say to the
public, that anyone having any
questions in regard to the
union's position or line of reason
ing are invited to come to the
union hall and their questions
will be answered."
The union report said that
Sunday's meeting proved the
back-to-work . talk without get
ting the union demands is just
"wild crackpot rumor." Not
one man, they said, raised the
question at the union meeting.
Reference was evidently made
to published reports from a
source unassociated with either
labor or management that there
was a "back to work" movement
here. That report was based in
part on a street survey.
Since no official action has
been forthcoming from the war
labor board it would indicate that
the strike question here has been
lost between the conciliation
service and the WLB, an author
itative source stated today.

Riiked Death
The men who reached Wain
Wright's camp had flown 1100
miles from Siking (Sian) in
Shensl province, eurly on Aug

risking death to bring food,
medical aid and encouragement
to the internees, since they had
no idea of what the reaction of
the Japanese would be. The Jap
anese had been informed ahead
of time by leaflets of the coming
of the parachutists.
Brig. Gen. George Olmstead
of Des Moines, Iowa, who plan
ned and directed the missions,
had high praise for the courage
of the teams, many of whose
