Previous to the time the Ger mans invaded Norway, the Nor wegian government had believed that they were getting along all right with Germany. There had been amicable agreements about fishing, the amount of fish, iron etc. that the Germans were to buy from Norway, etc. After the invasion, however, Mr. Hambro said, they learned that for years it had been part of the German plan to invade Norway.

Then he went by car to Hamar to make arrangementa for a place for the Storting to meet, housing for the legislators, etc. He went to the chief of po^ lice first, and that man thought Mr. Hambro was joking when he told of what was happening in Oslo. “Mr. Hambro,” he said, “isn’t your calendar wrong. This | is the 9th of April, not the Ist,” ISo carefully had details of the I arrangements been made that when the Storting convened at Hamar that noon only 4 of the 150 legislators were absent. Many of them did not know what the 100 mile jaunt was for. Earlier in the night an offic ious German had handed a note to the Norwegian minister of war saying that the Germans had come to protect the Norwegians against the proposed invasion of the British and French.
