"Whot Is A War
CriminoI?" Gestopo
Men Ask

A Dane who recently escaped
to Sweden after he had been a
prisoner of the Germans in Copen-
hagen for a long while gives a de-
scription of Gestapo mentality
which is. of special interest because
his position in the underground
movement was such that the Ger
mans did not intend to spare his
life. Hence they had no reason not
to be frank with him.
He said that Gestapo men watch
each other closely and never reveal
their thoughts except when alone
with a prisoner. Under those cir
cumstances it is extraordinary to
see how hard they find it to con-
troll their curiosity Nearly all of
them start by asking when one
thinks the war will be over and
who will win. But they will not
admit to any belief that Germany
can lose: they refer to the secret
weapon, total mobilization, leader
ship ability. etc.
This part of their talk follows
a dull pattern, but then the dis
cussion turns to the question as to
what will happen if the Allies
should be victorious. Again and
again they bring up the point as
to how war criminals will be treat
ed and what is a war criminal.
"A policeman" they insist. who
only obeys orders and does his
duty surely cannot be regarded as
a war criminal. That is impossi-
BILE"
They seem almost relieved to
hear that Danish patriots aim to
catch Gestapo men alive when the
day of reckoning comes for those
who served in Denmark. Obvi-
ously they are nervous about re-
ports of lynchings from liberated
Paris. They are not very con-
cerned when they are told why
the Danes want to catch them
alive, and they seem to be more
than willing to tell the patriots
who the Danish Nazis were who
worked for the Gestapo.
Clear proof exists that the en-
tire Gestapo officer corps in Den
mark use false names and papers
The name of Gestapo Chief Bowen
siepen is not Bovensiepen. 1t is
also believed that many German
police officials exchange identity

Donish Americans
Prepare for Liberation
Of Denmark

According to Jean Hersholt,
president of American-Denmark
Relief, the organization through
its 500 sewing circles is making
and packing clothes for shipment
to Denmark after the defeat of
the Germans. I'VE are awaiting
the day when the Nazi yoke is
lifted, and we can really do good
work in Denmark Mr.. Hersholt
said. Meanwhile we are also
helping 10000 Danish refugees who
have fled to Sweden"

Underground
Warfare

I'm the ten first months of 1914
about seven hundred major acts of
sabotage took place in Denmark"
The Danish Professor Stephan
Hurwitz made this statement at
an exhibition of Fighting Den
mark" in Newcastle, England, re-
Gently. In his speech he also said:
You will see glimpses only of the
Danish fight at this exhibition, for
most of the fighting has to take
place underground. BY violence
and trickery Denmark was de-
prived of any chance to make a
formal declaration of war. It has
had to carry on at the side of the
Allies without formal recognition.
Today Denmark is fighting with
out King, Parliament, without ar
my or fleet; not even a police
forces does it now possess.
And yet the Danish people is
strong. 1t is strong because it is
united. There have been differ
ent points of view as to the best
tactics to follow in the fight
against the German might, but
apart from an insignificant per-
centage of Quislings, less than in
any occupied Countrywide Danes
have with loathing turned as one
man from Nazi mentality and
Nazi methods"
The mayor of Newcastle spoke of
the pleasure it had been to house
the many thousands of Danish
sailors who, with two-thirds of the
Danish merchant marine, had
chosen to share the perils of the
war at sea" with the Allies.

NAL one. At the trial baking the
bread made from this kind of rye
was found to taste just as good
as that made of ordinary dip
loid" rye.
So far, the new type is handi-
capped by higher degree of ster.
ility. This, however, is a COM
mon phenomenon and Professor
Mintzing believes the sterility can
be overcome. In a couple of years,
therefore, type of seed rye may
be produced which will be capable
of increasing considerably the

DURELY
L Official
By BALLOT BOX

Tuesdays city election produced
many surprises and here are some
of them:
A switch of just Is votes in each
of the precincts Con the basis of I'M
official returns) would have resulted
in Republican mayor and a Demo-
cratic council.
The Republicans expected that
Spigler would beat Kemp in Ward
5, but the first returns from the
Ward-Precinct insured Kemp's
reelection, when it gave him a plur-
atty of 800.
At midnight John Dunn had whit
tied down Dick Sweeney's lead to
around a hundred and Republican
headquarters were really getting ex-
cited. But at l a. m. Sweeney had
pulled out again with lead of 469,
with only two precincts-one in
Ward 4 and one in Ward 5-to be
heard from.
Both those boxes figured to go to
Dunn, so the only question was-by
how many. Republican supporters
were claiming that the Fleigh Ga
rage box would give Dunn 400 ma
jority and that the Fairgrounds box
would put him over. On the other
hand, the Democrats were claiming
that, although they expected to lose
both boxes, they wouldn't lose them
by enough to offset their 469 lead.
Hold everything, there's the phone.
It's all over. Sweeney wins by
100 votes and I'm going to bed.
