Sibillties OF hGstilities in Scandinavia
| TINS spring CT it may be another
move i'll Adolf HitlerS constant
''War OF nerves to distract attcu-
ton from action planned elsewhere.
There Is some reason to believe
the reports, since it is known that
/ Sweden recently held large scale
army maneuVers. German propa-
ganda has spread reports in Sweden
that Britain is planning an inva-
sion OF Norway which. if success
tul, would be followed by an inva-
SIGN Cf Sweden to join forces with
the Russians through Finland.
Now Sweden hears that Germany
is massing ships and men to 20
through Sweden into Norway to
block the Allied attack. 1t is hard
for the SWcdcs to know what
believe.
There Is no particular reason for
Hitler to invade sweden at this
junCturc unless he really fears an
allied invasion or plans to invaG
England. 1t may be that Hitler
wants to solidily his position in
Norway because he expects to be
busy this summer in southeastern
Europe and Russia and fears that
Britain will take advantage of his
prcoccupatiGn to attacl: him from
the rear
Britain has good reasons for at
tempting to invade Norway. if there
Is any prospect cf success. One rca-
son is NorWays position athWart

way provides excellent bases from
which Hltl9r's submarine packs can

Cr Admiral Hipper and the aircraft
