ber industry."
"Assurance was given the
board that the parties were pre

The buildings are 56 feet long

A $10 service fee is charged to
tenants when they first move in
to the units and from that time,

Lt. E. C. Granbery, assistant

The units were built under

FEDERAL CASE

stamped with the official U. S.
government stamn was a much
debated question and Boivin
asked why Edward B. Twining,
U. S. attorney, did not produce
these cases as evidence in court,
Boivin stated that there were
six different versions as to the
type of markings stumped on the
cases.
Bricco took the stand yester
day in his own defense and said
upon interrogation that he had
no idea that the articles were
stolen or where they came from,
but that he thought they came
from a Drlvate concern.
Twining contended that Bric
co knew exactly what he was
doing when he bought the goods
which were delivered by men m
uniform in a marine corps truck.
He also said that Bricco would
not have payed $850 for the
cases without first checking the
contents.
He also charged that Bricco
gave no points for the meat and
butter he allegedly bought.
The government placed WO
Edward Kron, who was assistant
provost marshal at the Marine
Barracks on or about April 27
when the goods were allegedly
stolen, on the stand and Kron
testified that he told Bricco that
"you've got yourself into a hell
of a peck of trouble," whereupon
Bricco allegedly replied, "I sure
have. This is the first time I've
ever been a crook."
Defense witnesses were Frank
Z. Howard, Bricco, Mrs. Marvin
Roedcr, Alfred Castel, Mrs. Al
fred Castel, and character wit
nesses included R. S. Dixon and
Fred Pope, both of Ft. Klamath.
The government witnesses in

a letter which he said Quisling
wrote to Hitler giving his "greot
Germanic" plan for placing
Norway inside the German state
system. Quisling disclaimed the
letter, but said he had sought
means of uniting a bloc of na
tions with Germany."
"During the occupation I had
to be practical in dealing with
the Germans," Quisling testi
fied. "German authorities in
Norway tried time and again to
establish a military dictator
ship. They wanted to make a
protectorate of Norway. I
fought that all the time and I
think I won out, more or less."
Quisling' said he had not
burned a single paper of his
files during the occupation be
cause the idea never entered
my mind."
Quisling asserted that Hitler
intended to grant Norway inde
pendence through him, adding:
"That was his will aud inten
tion."
Schjoedt asked Quisling
whether he studied concentra
tion camps supervised by his
subordinates.
"It may sound strange," Quis
ling replied, "but in spite of
thousands of appeals to me from
people in jail, I never had a
single report of torture. If I
had, I would have done some
thing." . .
Schjoedt asked:
"Did you ever listen to broad
casts from London?"
There was no reply.
