HE AVERTED FIGHT

OSLO, Norway, Aug. 25.-P)-
Vidkum gushing declared in
his own defense today that he had
talked the Germans out of fighting
on in Norway in a suicide stand
after Germany collapsed.
Quisling, whom defense charac.
ter witnesses pictured as a man
who had undergone a strange psy-
Geological change, told the court
trying him on charges Of treason
that the German commander-in-
chief in Norway was determined
to fight on even though the Nazi
homeland had surrendered.
II warned against it and said
it would be wrong to make Nor
way a German battlefield" Outs
ling said. He added. II saw that
the Germans could hold a redoubt
here for a long time, but since it
would destroy Norway, I opposed
it,"
Summoned by the defense, Maj
Gen. Halvor Hanson testified he
had been friend of Quisling from
1911 to 1910, and said Quisling as
defense minister in 1928 did his
best to build up Norway's de-
fenses.''
Gen. Otto Ruge, Commander Of
the Norwegian Army in 1910, and
one of the officers whom Quisling
was accused of having ordered
deported to German prison camps,
said Quisling was an intelligent Of
ficer and a "shy and extraordi-
nary man dominated by ambition
in the noble sense of the world"
The general continued: He was
very sure of his own importance.
His attitude toward money was
without fault
School Rector Wilhelm Ullman,
former Norwegian minister to Mos
xow, said Quisling used to. be
an extremely loyal and good friend
admired by all his classmates at
our school," but added that 1.-The
Quisling of today is an entirely
different man from the one knew
in 1897
Ullman said Quisling Suffered
from an inferiority complex. His
greatest ideal was Napoleon. He
believed in an unreal world full
OF dreams of great things he was
going to do.''

days of fighting continued hopping
Up the larger cities, taking Ling

Khabarovk disclosure that the

Korea indicated the Soviet Air
borne landings at key communica
tons points such as Mukden, road
hub in southeastern Manchuria,
and Kanko, on Korea's East Coast,
were intended to block the Japa-
nese retreat.
The roads from Manchuria into
Korea had been open until the
series Of Airborne landings and
the Japanese delay in surrender
irg the Kwantung army En- Masse
probably was due TO the high con-
nand's hope that the bulk of the
army could escape Russian inter
ment camps.
Marshal Alexander M. Vasilev-
sky, commander of the Soviet far
Eastern armies, previously had
warned the Jap Kwantung com
mander he could no longer tolerate
the blowing Of bridges and destruc-
ton Of towns by retreating Japa-
nese troops on Sakhalin. Continu-

ed the Japs on Sakhalin also were
