NAZI REPRESSION

MURDER IN OCCUPIED LANDS

(Rec. noon.) RUGBY, January 3. Reports have been received of the intensification of German repression in some of the occupied countries, and an explanation is provided by the Norwegian Prime Minister, Mr. Johan Nygaardsvold, broadcasting from London to Norway. He said the Germans were now behaving like a murderer who sees himself ringed round pn all sides by the instruments of justice and who plunges desperately into a reckless orgy of killing,' besides other repressive measures in Norway. S.S. CHIEF'S VISIT. The Chief of Staff of the German S.S., Victor Lutze, has been visiting Oslo following a revolt among Quisling's Storm Troops. Discontent among these troops spread when the news of the casualties on the Russian front reached Norway and culminated in the beating-up of prominent quisling Ministers and officials. The Polish Government in London has received a detailed report of the most recent aspects of the German campaign of constant terror against the Poles. In one district 54 villages have been completely evacuated of population, and children, particularly those under six years, have been deported to Germany, while mothers who do not want to give up their j children are murdered. KILLING IN SILESIA. A report states that there have been arrests on a wide scale in Silesia accompanied by public executions. The report concludes: "The Germans think that even if they lose the war they still may win the peace, and therefore are hastening on the action of exterminating the Polish nation in the conviction that facts once established cannot be undone."—B.O.W.
