The people of the occupied ma
tons can't throw off the yoke alone" :"
he said. MANY Americans ask me
If there won't be a revolt. There are
hidden weapons in Europe. But we
save them for the day when Ger
many is crumbling from outside
blows"
DR.. Skard was in Norway when

Despite ill health she performed
