The Japanese military spokesman
was quoted as charging the Ameri-

The Japanese claimed some time
after the raid that nine American
bombers were brought down, but
their subsequent announcements on
the raid were conflicting and un-
clear.
In Washington, Presidential Sec

Mutiny and .Desertion
Spread Among Nazis
Occupying Norway
500 Gestopo Agents
Assigned to Round Up
Workers in France
By the Associated Press.

LONDON, Oct. 1s.-Mutinies,
desertions, suicides and general
lowering of morale are on the in
crease among the 100000 Ger
man troops of occupation in
Norway, the Norwegian govern
ment-in-exile was informed to-
day in fresh reports brought out
of the homeland.
Two large concentration camps
were reported opened for mutineers
along the Finnish frontier and at
least 1,400 Nazis were said to be
confined in one Of them.
One authoritative account said
1000 German soldiers stationed
north OF Kirkenes rebelled against
an order for them to go to Russia
and that one out of every ten was
ordered executed. The order had to
be countermanded, this report went
on, because Nazi firing squads re-
fused to shoot the men and the
rebels were sent to concentration
camps instead.
Suicides were declared mounting
at an alarming rate, and deserters
were reported leaving in increasing
numbers, making their way across
the Finnish frontier along routes
outlined in leaflets dropped from
Russian planes.
Accounts of Hitler's troubles
within his own army were coupled
with growing unrest among the con-
quered peoples of Europe rebelling

Convoy Chief
Only Victim
In Sinking

The sinking of an American mer-
chant ship in the Caribbean in mid
August in which the only casualty
was the Navy officer who was in
command of the entire convoy was
announced today by the Navy De-
partment.
In his capacity as convoy COM
mander, 1t. Comdr. Van Rensselaer,
Moore, U. S. NJ, retired, went to the
bridge deck to direct the movements
of the merchant ships when the at
tack came, while the naval escort
vessels hunted the attacking sub
marine.
He was last seen there a few
moments before two torpedoes
struck the vessel, literally breaking
it apart.
Comdr. Moore had been reported
lost in action, but no details were
given at that time.
The Navy said all of the other A
officers and men managed to strug-
gle into lifeboats and RATS, reaching
Caribbean port after two days of
rowing in the open sea.
Comdr. Moore, a native of Hudson,
N. Y, was graduated from the Naval
Academy in 1918. He was attached
to the destroyer force based at
Brest, France, and to the flag office
Of the naval forces in France during
the first World War. He was trans
ferred to the retired list of the Navy
June 80, 1910, but remained on
active duty.

Garden I Shoppe Killer
Denied Freedom Writ

The Supreme Court today denied
Thomas Jordon, who is serving life
sentence for the Garden T. Shoppe
murder in 1881, permission to file
a petition for a writ of habeas
corpus.
This was the latest legal maneu-
yer in the long litigation directed
at freeing Jordon. Convicted of
Staying Mrs. Elizabeth Jaynes in the
course of holdup, Jordon was SEN
fenced to die in the electric chair.
The death sentence was COM
muted to life imprisonment by
President Roosevelt and attorneys
for the convict have made many
attempts to obtain his freedom
since, contending that he did not
receive fair trial.

U. 5. Warp|anes Good
And Getting Better,
Tests al Front Show
Fighters Goining After
Slow Sturt, Big Bombers
Unsurpassed, owl Says

Coupling unvarnished criticism
OF American fighter planes with
an overall analysis of all United
States combat planes, the Office
of War Information concluded
today that ION the average, the
combat performance of United
States aircraft was good" and
was getting better.
Warning that America does not
have and is not likely to have
aircraft superior to the enemy
in all categories, owl said:
THE best that the public can ex-
pect, and the best that it will get"
the report added, '"is that, on the
average, the equipment Of the
Allied forces shall be superior to
the equipment of the enemy"
In 10000 word report to the pub
lie designed to dispel the fog of
confusion concerning American
planes, Owl said "the truth lies be-
tween two extremes" of adverse and
favorable criticisms.
Specifically, the document said:
l. The Curtiss P-40, Bell P-39
(Airacobra), and North American
Psi (Mustang), standard Army
fighters already in action, have
many good points but are definitely
inferior to foreign types in high-al-
titude combat. Improved types are
in production but haven't been bat
tle-tested yet.
2. Chief fault of our fighters is
the tardy and incomplete develop
ment of the Allison liquid cooled
motor.
Precision BOmbers Unsurpassed.
8. For daylight precision bombing,
our Flying Fortress Bits and Lib
orator B-24s are unsurpassed.
4. Our medium bombers, Mitchell
B-25s and Martin B-26s, have no
competitors.
5. Latest Navy fighter, dive bomb
er and torpedo types already in
action are the best carrier planes in
the world.
6. Other types-patrol, reconnais-
sance, cargo and transport, artillery
flre-spotters, etc.-are satisfactory
in quality" within their own fields.
Stressing that only results in bat
tie provide valid standards of criti-
cism, the report suggested no full
appraisal of our planes will be pos
sible until the war has been won."
Allies Get Higher Rating.
