morning.
The newspaper did not dis
close the identity of the vet
Grams, but said the information
came from three marines, two
sailors and navy pilot on in
dividual visits to Akron.
The navy pilot, the paper said
termed the incident the worst
scandal of the war" and said the
crew refused to unload supplies
because of national maritime
union rules against working on
Sunday.
In New York, Leo Huberman,
NMU director of public rela-
tons and education, who said
he spoke for Joseph Curran, I'm
ion president, commented:
In the first place, the NMU
has no union regulation to for
bid working on Sunday. In the
second place, we are seamen; it
is not our job to unload. But
in such cases as at Guadalcanal
I expect we would be asked to,
and I'm sure our men would I'M
load ships"
The paper said the veterans
stories have been put up to
naval officials in Washington
for confirmation or denial"
1t added that confirmation
has come from a high official
source in Washington, w h o
though he witnessed these con-
ditions during his service in
Guadalcanal, must necessarily
remain anonymous.

explained, safeguards American

korwesions Conduct
Gradual Purge
BY EDWIN SHANKE

STOCKHOLM, Jan. 22-(P-
The ousting of prominent Quis-
ling leaders from their posts in a
purge of the Nasjonal Samling
party was reported today In
stories reaching here from Nor
way.
Vidkun Quisling, head of the
party, is conducting gradual
purge, the reports said.
First to 60 was Yngvar Mar
tens, a district leader in Nord-
trondelag who was said to have
been removed after his brother
in-law, Herman Haufen, accused
him of black market operations.
Earlier Martens was reported
to have accused Haufen of fin.
ancing repairs to his automobile
with official German money.
The reports said that more
dismissals were expected in the
district.
In the Skien district, prom
inent Norwegian Nazi leader,
ALI Seeberg, was said to have
been ousted from his post.
To make certain that all vac
ancies will be filled with politi-
cally-reliable men, Quisling has
directed the Department of the
Interior to form a new political
office to control all appoint
ments, reports from Norway
said.
Under Nazi pressure Quisling
was said to have dismissed all
the members regarded as unre-
liable from the board of Nor
ways National Bank.
1t was also reported that q
cousin of Quisling, Constable
Abraham Quisling, in Skien, re.
signed from the NaSjonal Sam
ling-and then paid for it by
being discharged from the Nor
wegian police service.

and somewhat West of the Lib
yam capital.
WHEELING MANEyVERED
Observers in London said 1t
seemed likely that part of Mont
gomery's force might be swing
ing around Tripoli to the South,
and that one objective of such
a move might be the capture of
Castel Benito airdrome below
the city.
Day and night Allied bombing
already has lessened or de-
stroyed its value as an Axis air
base, but the Allies were re-
ported counting heavily on us
ing it as one of their principal
fields for the coming about
bombing of the Axis strongholds
in Tunisia.
British military sources said
that although the exact posi-
tions of Montgomery's spear
heads were not known, he was
moving at a fast pace and the
British occupation of Tripoli was
regarded as moppingup opera
ton on which the Eighth army
would waste little time.
These sources said a bypass
ing thrust to the coast west of
Tripoli from the new positions
the south might cut off more
of Rommel's forces.
T csc potential reinforce
ments for the Axis last stand
in Tunisia were described as
exhausted from one of the long
est retreats in military history.

prisoner with passion for
horse-play, cigarettes, American
slang and swing tunes.
Imagine Tojo's discomfort if
he knew that his warriors were
calling each other "hachi maru,"
which is japanese for "8-ball."
This started recently when two
Marines visited the camp to pol
ish up the Japanese they had
studied. One leatherneck call
ed the other an "8-ball."
A prisoner, who possessed a
smattering of English, asked
what that meant. Zen it was
laboriously explained, a smile
wreathed his puckered features.
He said ''hachi maru." Within
an hour, there words were on
the tongue of every prisoner.
Nor would TOTO appreciate the
sentiments displayed by another
prisoner, when someone men,
toned Germany in his presence.
With thumb and forefinger of
his left hand he gripped his
nose firmly, while the right
hand shot forward in a Hitler
ian salute.

The Jap soldier or sailor
