Danish Crisis Warns
All to Be Watchful,
Swedish Chief Says
By the AssocUted Press.
STOCKHOLM. Aug. 30.—Swedisl
Prime Minister Per Albin Hanssoi
asserted in a speech at Kalmar yes
terday that swiftly changing event;
in Denmark were a "warning to al
of us always to be watchful."
Observing that the Danish crisi;
was an example that “situations car
change very soon." he added:
"Our hearts are beating for Den
mark.”
The Prime Minister and othei
Swedish government leaders hav(
maintained that neutral Sweden stil
is in a dangerous war position.
Commenting editorially on Den
mark, the Stockholm new7spapei
Tidningin predicted difficulties foi
Germans handling Danes “w’ho will
not surrender freedom." It assert
ed that "German militarists, irri
tated by sabotage acts, were guilty
of all encroachments and provoca
tion between German soldiers and
Danish civilins."
The Stockholm newspaper Nya
Dagligt Allehanda said the tight
ening of the German reign over
Denmark "comes as Germany's po
sition changes for the w'orse."
"After defeats on the Eastern
front, Africa and Italy and wdth
Allied invasion threatening, Ger
many behaves more and more des
perately in occupied countries,” the
paper added.
The newspaper Aftontidningen re
called the Nazis promised full in
dependence for Denmark and Nor
way and said, “Now7 one knows
what promises from that quarter
are worth.”

SITE OF DANISH FLEET SCUTTLING—Air view of part of the military port of Copenhagen,
Denmark, where Danish naval forces scuttled most of their fleet in a battle with German troops.
Nazi Ideals Fail to Appeal
Even in'Model Protectorate'
By ihc Associated Press.
STOCKHOLM. Aug. 30 —If Hitler
still had any hopes that Nazi ideals
and theology would attract free
people, they were crushed by the
people's revolt in Denmark.
Denmark was Hitler's “model
protectorate." She was to be a pat
tern for treatment of occupied coun- j
tries under Hitler's “new order.” |
The German invasion of April 9,
1940, signaled the end of the free
dom of the Danes, although Den
mark was the best-treated occupied
country in Europe.
For two years the Danes smarted
because of the lack ol^resistance by
their armed forces. They thought
that perhaps if they had put up a
fight they might have interrupted
the Nazi war time table and pre
vented the Germans from getting
such a firm hold in Norway before
the British got there to help the
i Norwegians.
It was just a year ago this month
that a turning point was reached in
Denmark which eventually led the
I Germans to impose a military dic
; tatorship on the little nation of
fewer than 4.000.000 persons in an
effort to crush a revolt that was
crippling German troop transport
the supply lines and jeopardizing
the output of materials for the
German war machine.
Sabotage Under Way for Year. j
Organized sabotage directed by j
Allied agents from Britain started
in Denmark in August. 1942.
It developed slowly, but became
irritating to the Germans, who also
discovered that as a well-treated
protectorate Denmark was making
little contribution to the Nazi war
effort.
And the Danes, burdened with
more and more encroachments on
their liberties, became even less
inclined to co-operate.
A simple telegraphic exchange
that grew into an "international in
cident" gave the Nazis the opening
they sought to make further in
roads into Danish affairs.
Hitler sent the popular King
Christian X glowing congratulations
in a birthday message. King Chris
tian replied with a curt "thank you.”
which Hitler considered an insult.
He used the incident as a lever to
demand a new Danish government
more amenable to Nazi wishes.
Prime Minister Orla Buhl re
signed and was succeeded by Erik j
de Scavenius, veteran Danish diplo
mat and foreign minister during the
last war.
Scavenius took over the govern
ment last November. About the
same time Hitler sent Werner Best
to Denmark as German envoy in a
Change that also put Gen. Hermann
von Hannecken in command of the
Nazi army of occupation.
Right to Try Saboteurs Refused.
For eight months political peace
reigned in Denmark, but the pace j
of sabotage acts stepped up.
Sabotage became a menace to the 1
production of materials which Ger
many had depended on more and
more as Allied bombardments i
wrecked her own industries. The
Germans demanded the right to i
! arrest and try saboteurs under Nazi
law.
The government refused to grant j
the request and the Germans did not |
at first press their demands.
Sabotage marked one of two ma- |
I jor steps leading to the current re- '
volt. The second was the activities i
j of German occupation soldiers.
The first contingents of troops j
were well behaved. But then Ger- I
many began sending nervous vet- I
erans from the Russian front who I
! forgot all discipline. They became
embroiled in rows with Danes, who
accused them of molesting women
Sweden's discontinuance of trans
port of German soldiers and war
material over Swedish railways be
tween Germany and Norway and
Finland gave the Danes a new
wedge in their sabotage attacks.
ntimatum Presented.
Germany had to transport troops
and supplies to Norway through
! Denmark. The Danes this month j
I began blowing up railway lines
| carrying men and materials and 1
! sabotaging ships going to Norway.
Best maintained his mild collabo
ration policy with the Danes.
But two weeks ago. while Best
was away, aides of Gen. von Han
necken presented an ultimatum
from Berlin demanding for a sec
ond time German administration of
justice—with the death penalty— j
for saboteurs.
Neither King Christian nor the !
government would lake the respon- ■
sibility for permitting Germans to
execute Danes and the request was
rejected.
Meanwhile the conduct of Ger
man troops became worse. More
clashes developed between soldiers
and Danes, and both sides com
promised in an effort to restore
quiet.
German authorities promised to
restrict the soldiers to quarters after
certain hours. The Danish State
| Council August 21 appealed to the
people for order, warning that If
sabotage continued the Danes would
! lose coal and food obtained from
Germany.
Neither action had any effect.
Sabotage Intensified.
German troop? continued to run
amuck in some cities, snd on the
| other side, sabotage directed by re
inforcements of the air-borne
1 7
"saboteur commandos” intensified.
Behind the scenes, the Nazi mili
tary commander demanded that
ruthless steps be taken to suppress
the Danes as realization grew that
internal revolt might handicap the
Germans if the Allies invaded Den
mark. which is on one of the shortest
routes to Berlin.
Best went to Berlin for further in
structions. He came back after see
ing Heinrich Himmler, who has
taken over the strong-arm job of.
crushing unrest inside Europe, and
with such drastic demands that King
Christian .threatened to abdicate if
they were accepted by the govern
ment.
Scavenius flatly turned down the
ultimatum.
Best remarked: "I'm a dead man
in Berlin. My policy has failed.”
Sixteen hours later on August 29
Gen. von Hannecken announced the
military dictatorship for an awaken
ed Denmark, which then began to
fight, for the first time in 79 rears.

ing French in the United States
would be ready to begin their anti
Roosevelt campaign during the next
few months.
Courier Schwob. who brought this
particular diplomatic pouch into New
York, is a former civil aide to the
Governor of New Caledonia. Admiral
George Thierry d'Argenlieu. Mr.
Schwob arrived in New York by
plane from Algiers, but had left in
such haste that his credentials were
not entirely acceptable to the im
migration authorities.
The American officials who ex
amined him were satisfied that he
was a bona fide courier and allowed
him to leave the airport, retaining
as a matter of routine the large
envelope full of confidential material.
Envelope Was Opened.
M. Philippe Baudet, a French
official of the best tradition who
is scrupulously correct in his diplo
matic dealings, is in charge of De
Gaulle's headquarters in Washing
ton. When he heard that the
American authorities had inter
cepted a diplomatic valise, he made
the usual protest and was assured
that the envelope would reach the
French delegation in 24 hours. The
envelope was delivered, but it had
been opened and the damage had
been done.
Supporters of Gen. de Gaulle, who
cannot deny the existence of the
letter, point out that the Fighting
i French general is guilty of no real
abuse of diplomatic privilege, for
while he might be accused of inter
i ference in this Nation’s internal
| affairs, they contend that President
J Roosevelt is even now interfering in
i the internal affairs of the French
! nation.
The thesis of the out-and-out De
Gaulleists is. of course, that Algiers
is France and that Gen. De Gaulle
| is the chosen leader of the French
people.
This incident has nothing to do
with the limited recognition which
! was extended to the Committee of
| National Liberation. That formula
had been decided upon some weeks
ago. It is said, however, to have
influenced President Roosevelt's
somewhat curt announcement con
cerning the settlement of the French
affair.

BEFORE VOU GET A LOAN
READ THIS MESSAGE
Thinking of getting a loan" Be
fore you borrow, ask yourself two
questions. 1. Is your loan really
necessary? 2. Are you getting it at
the lowest rate you can?
It s a good idea not to borrow un
less a loan is the best answer to your
problem. In wartime that's an espe
cially wise policy. Perhaps vou can
squeeze through this time without
borrowing. If you do borrow, get only
as much money as you really need—
and pay it back as soon as possible
to reduce the cost.
Sometimes a family must have a
substantial amount of cash to meet an
unexpected emergency. Sometimes a
family has debts too large to pay out
of current earnings. That's when a
personal loan, repayable in monthly
instalments, can often solve a trouble
some problem.

reported from Stockholm this
morning that King Christian was
expected to abdicate. This re
port said diplomatic circles in the
Swedish capital were discussing
formation of a free Danish gov
ernment in London.)
The military dictatorship was im
posed as the climax of a rapid series
of sabotage acts in the last, two
weeks throughout the reluctant
German vassal state, overrun by
Hitler's forces in 1940.
"Recent disturbances have shown
that Danish authorities are no
longer in position to maintan law
and order." said the martial law
decree. "Disturbances created by
enemy agents are directly pointed at
German armed forces.”
The proclamation banned all
strikes, civil communications, street
traffic after dark and assemblies of
more than five persons except for
church services. The death penalty
was provided for those who incite
workers to strike "to the detriment
of German armed forces.”
Admiral Vedet, commander of the
Danish Navy, was reported, without
confirmation, to have reached
Malmo. Vedel has been comman

resist the Germans in 1940.

Prepare Your Home
for Winter NOW
Fuel will be short again this winter. Rationing of fuel oil will
be continued. Government officials state that conditions pre
vent any greater supply than last winter. It may be necessary to
allocate less fuel to each home than before.
You owe it to yourself to insulate, weatherstrip, and storm-sash
your home. Not only will you save fuel . . . and thus save money
... but you will spend a more comfortable winter. Insulation,
weather-stripping, and storm-sash actually pay for themselves
over a period of time.
Have the work done NOW. L'ater on, both materials and labor
may be scarce. See your dealer, and ask for an estimate.
If you prefer not to pay cash for the work, come to “The Bank
for the Individual” for a Modernization Loan.
I on need make no payments until November ist. New govern
ment regulations permit this special privilege on loans for fuel
conservation purposes . . . for “heat-proofing” your home.
No endorsers — No collateral —No red tape.
You simply fill out an application form and sign a note. You
can take up to 36 months to repay the loan, with minimum
monthly payments of $5.
