QUISLING THREATENED
GUARDED BY TROOPERS. y [BY CABLE —PRESS ASSN. —COPYRIGHT.] LONDON, February 16. The Oslo correspondent of the “Daily Telegraph” states that Major Quisling is reported to be receiving a jgrowing number of threatening letters, and is now guarded day and night by armed hirdmen (Storm Troopers). The Salvation Army and other religious communities are wholeheartedly associating themselves with the letter sent by the seven bishops of the Lutheran State Church, to Herr Stancke, the Quisling Minister for Church and Education, in which they asked whether the clergy and their congregations enjoy full religious freedom according to Herr Hitler’s promise, and whether the courts of justice remain independent, in accord with a promise given by the Nazi Governor (Herr Terboven). The authorities have ordered the police to attend all church services to ensure that preachers conform to orders.
