FOR EARLY ADJUSTMENT
Government Organ of Norway Com
ments on Nations Position Re
garding American Exports.

CHRISTIANIA, October 23.-Com-
menting on the recent American Off
cial statement concerning exports from
the United States TO neutral countries.
the Norske Intelligenssedler. the gov
ernment organ. says Norway is doing
her best to arrive at an agreement with
the United States as soon as possible.
The statement was made in reply to
other newspapers. which are demand
ing more active steps for a settlement
of the difficulty before Norway is
faced by famine. The Intelligenssedler,
continuing, says:
Everybody must see that it depends
upon America and not upon us when
matters will be adjusted. America re-
tains our cargo ships and we cannot
release them, although we have neg
1ected nothing to that end. We have
q right to expect America to realize
what our position will be II she does
not soon loose the bands binding US.
Our fishing industry Is threatened
with destruction and other industries
are finding it difficult TO maintain them
selves. owing to lack of oil Naturally
the Germans are using our position to
their advantage"
Calling attention to a German adj
vertisement offering petroleum to Nor
wegian fisherman II 1t is only used
in the interest of the Germans the
newspaper adds:
Thus those who fish for Germany
can continue to work. The others must
row their boats or lay them up"
