Berlin
Continued From First Page.)

Hitler had exchanged letters late
last month. in which they had "af-
flrmed complete agreement over the
future political attitude" Of the two
nations toward each other.
Story Of Talk Played Up.
The controlled German press
splashed the story of the alleged
conversation between the two allied
war leaders.
The account did not disclose how
Germany could have obtained
record OF any Chamberlain-Re Reynaud
conversation, but it was specific in
saying that the two allied leaders
talked for just Is minutes, starting
at 10:10 pm, Central European
time, April 80.
The Berlin newspaper Zwlfuhr-
blatt, for example, played the story
under double page l streamer. in
terpreting the textual quotations
from that purported conference as
meaning that Gen. Maxine Wey-
gand, commander in chief of allied
forces in the Near East, would be
ready for the ordered action" by
May Is.
What such action" might be,
however, was not stated.
1t was M. Reynaud who, accord
Ing to the German account, assured
Mf. Chamberlain that the French
general, Weygand, would be ready by
May Is, but the French Premier was
said to have cautioned Mr.. Cham
berlain not to take the date liter
ally-that execution of the "or-
dered action" might be a little later.
'Chamberlain, in an obviously de-
pressed tone, remarked that he was
under the impression that they were
requiring more time down there
than necessary" said Zwoelfuhrblatt.
Difficulties With Turks.
To this M. Reynaud was said to
have replied by pointing to the
many difficulties" which had to be
overcome, especially as regards the
Turks, who were making daily in
creasing demands"
Mr.. Chamberlain, according to the
Germans, promised personally to
talk to the Turks once more" but
said that He could not guarantee
anything IF they down there don't
at last put an end to eternal &C.
centricities and autocracy."
M. Reynaud was said to have re-
sponded with a promise to do every
thing possible to overcome mental
| difficulties"
Thereupon, 1t was said, Mr.. Cham
berlain requested M. Reynaud in

solini's intentions with regard TO
italian participation in the war.
Disclose Destroyers Sunk.
.. Further evidence of the might OF
Germany's air force came late yes
terday with disclosure that three
allied destroyers had been sunk by
Mani bombers while covering the
withdrawal of British and French
troops from Norway.
These vessels included the 2,436-
ton French Bison, the 1,870-ton Brit
tsh Afridi and the 2,144-ton Polish
Grom.
British sources said, however, that
the Germans had suffered heavy
losses in airplanes during the Nor
wegian campaign.
From official bulletins and other
sources they estimated that the
Nazis had lost 200 planes, largely
through the work of the British air
force. In comparison, British losses
were described as comparatively
light, amounting to not more than 81
machines-16 lost in raids on Ger
man air bases, in action against
naval vessels and is in other opera
tions.
There was little new information
concerning the fighting still going on
in Northern Norway, where allied
troops, cooperating with the Nor
wegians, are ,besieging Germans at
NarWk.
Norwegian Foreign Minister Halv-
dan Koht who conferred yesterday
in London with Mr.. Chamberlain
and Foreign Secretary Lord Halifax,
asserted in an interview that the
Norwegian forces in the north were
well-trained and equipped.
t'It is the part four army which
has been best trained he declared.
The reason for this is easy to under
stand: For the last three years we
have been fearing Russian attack
\ that is why we organized our army
in Northern Norway"
A Norwegian broadcast reported
the Norwegian commander in chief,
Otto Ruge, had arrived In Northern
Norway aboard British war vessel.
Koht said great part Of the Nor
wegian army In the south was lost
when the allies withdrew, but he Of
fered no reproach.
"It is good to feel that my un-
happy country is not left alone in the
world" he declared. IT know the
English people well. and know there
Is no place where Norway has such
good friends as here"

q total OF 800 at Andalsnes had been
bombed before he arrived there.
when we came back through the
town only seven or eight had not
been bombed" he added.
Veterans Of long army service
were sprinkled among the khaki
clad men who hustled down the
gangplank without q song.
One British newspaperman,
watching the hobnailed procession,
remarked that quite lot of them
seem young and understood" but
not one of the men would admit
he had been frightened during the
IL days In which they were harassed
by the German air force.
Germans Declared Poor Shots.
They bombed anything that
moved" said one old Contemplate"
OF the World War. "They were poor
shots, but the place was full of spies.
The Germans always seemed to
know where we were and where our
anti-aircraft guns were. If it had
been man-to-man fighting the Brit
ish would have wiped them out"
A London corporal, one OF a crew
assigned to demolition Of bridges
as the allies backtracked up the
Gudbrands Valley toward Andals-
mes said:
I'VE were so short of explosives
we used depth charges from the
ships to bomb the bridges, and they
really blew them up!"
Maj. Gen. B. c. T. Paget, whose
direction Of the embarkation at An
dalsnes was praised by Prime Min
lister Chamberlain last Thursday,
credited the Norwegians with great
aid In the withdrawal. He said they
drove trains practically up to the
front lines twice to retrieve allied
forces.
Hardly q house was left standing
along the 80 miles from Kvam to
Dombas, one Of Gen. Paget's men
related, as the German air force
bombed the line of retreat.
When the navy brought down
four Nazi planes. you should have
seen the heart it put into the boys"
he added.
Gen. Ironside congratulated the
returning troops for having "come
back with their tails up"
Don't think you were driven
out Of Norway" he said. You were
ordered out Of Norway, and the
great thing is that your discipline
brought you out.
"You were an advance guard
and we had thought that we would
be able to get to you the guns and
aviation which make it possible to
fight such machine as you were
opposed to. But, as you know, the
race went against u.s."
Gen. Paget said that his troops
had fought five separate rear guard
actions during the withdrawal.
No immediate explanation was
given as to why French troops
which took part in the Norwegian
campaign had been landed in Brit
ain. It was disclosed that the
Frenchmen-Chasseurs Alpins-had
arrived Sunday and were reviewed
by Gen. Millhauser of the French.

The item as handed to the press

Zwolfuhrblatt said that the con-
versation finished in a friendly,
polite tone after Mr.. Chamberlain
requested M. Reynaud to see to it
that there were mo indiscretions
this time from the French side"
Purpose Is Twofold.
The purpose in publishing the
purported conversation appeared to
be twofold-to fix in the German
peoples mind any responsibility for
widening of the European conflict
into the Balkan-Near East area and
to smoke out" the allies regarding
their intentions.
