QUI5lING DENIES EMBEzzLEMENT OF GOVERNMENT FUNDS

BULLETIN = OSLO, Norway, Aug. 23.-A pale Jewish doctor still bearing the marks of a Ger man concentration camp told the court at Vidkun Quisling's trial today that of nearly 1000 Norwegian Jews sent to Poland, only 12 were known to have sur vived.
 Quisling, Germany's puppet accused of treason, is charged with the murder of the nearly 1000 Jews on the grounds of re- spOnsibility for the deportation.
 Dr. George Eichinger, a Ger man. born Jew sent to German concentration camp, said only 600 of NOrway's 1,600 Jews es- capped the German dragnet and the average durability of men sent to the Auschwitz camp in Poland was only one month. Out of 267 in the group in which he was deported, 140 were sent to gas chambers immediately and killed, he declared.
 Quisling, pale and agitated, in- sisted he never had heard of the German gas chambers.

MOSCOW, Aug. 23.-Red Army airborne units which seized Shum- ushu, northernmost of the Kurile Chain, continued operations south- ward today toward Hokkaido, one of Japans four main homeland islands, without meeting opposition, Soviet dispatches said.
 At Port Arthur and Dairen, the naval base and port on Liaotung Peninsula in Manchuria, Japanese garrisons were disarmed following other airborne landings yesterday. Here, too, no resistance was report ed from the capitulating Japanese.
 Port Arthur and Dairen, lost by the Czar's forces in the Russian Japanese war of 1904-05, were the strategic centers of the former Kwantung leased territory. Port Ar thur, Czarist Russia farthest expan- sion in search for a warm water port, was leased by Russia from China for 25 years in 1897. It was the scene of a bloody seven month Japanese siege in the Russian Japanese war.

 John D. Hudert, Superintendent Temporarily of this district for the Alaska Road Commission, spoke on the ARC. program, say ing that there will not be much change from the activities of the past few years, due to the war, but that few projects are planned for the season.
 The Dexter Road will be grav- eled; the railroad to the Kougarok will be repaired; the Taylor road from the end of the railroad will be opened, early enough to permit mining this season.
 MT. Hudert advises the public not to use the Dexter or Snake River roads until notified by the ARC. that they are in passable condition.
 The status of the Nome-Little Creek section of the railroad is still unsettled, as the Army re- fuses Cat present. to place it in useable condition.
 Col Walgren, representing the military authorities at Nome, stated under present circumstance es the railroad passes through military reservation and for se- curity reasons passage could not be permitted, but that the railway might be re-routed outside the present military area.
 Superintendent Hudert then said he would write to Ike Taylor, head of the ARC, at Juneau, Alaska, and request that the rail road between Nome and Little Creek be put in usable condition.
 It was moved, seconded, and the motion carried that the Secretary of the Chamber write to the Ter ritorial Highway Engineer, Leon- ard Smith, for concerted effort on his part in the rehabilitation of the Nome-Little Creek section of he railroad.
 Rev. O'Connor, of Kotzebue, chairman of the Alaska Commit tee on National Housing was not present, but the President ex- plained that O'Connor was in favor of the project for Nome, as there is great need here for low-cost housing It was also noted that the request for the housing must come from the city authorities who must certify to the need.
