sighting Of numerous German trans
ports moving both north and south
in the kattegat led to reports to-
night that the Germans are rein
forcing their low country drive with
their forces from Norway.
Seven large transports, escorted by
warships were een moving south.
But observers were unable to tell
whether they were loaded with
troops, leaving the possibility they
were strengthening their Norwegian
force instead.
Norwegian refugees reported two
German transports attempted to land
troops at Elsfjord, south of Mo, but
that one was sunk by the Allies.
The other landed a force of about
400 men, apparently. intended to re-
