TROMSO Norway.-There she lies rusty bottom

the hulk of this third year of uneasy peace.
.From this far north island and the fjords and
peaks she looks like boated old whale over there
in the cove where she hoped to nurse her wounds
and hide out from Allied bombers.
Alongside, the Tirpitz reveals herself as the
strangest machine shop this land of the midnight
sun has seen.
Salvagers have cut down through the overturned
hull and set up their workshops open to the sky,
using as their flooring what would be the over
head bulkhead of the bottommost compartment If
the old battleship were upright.
A group of lucky young fellows in Oslo got the
As hulk of the battleship for exactly 10000
kroner, which in American dollars comes to a mere
$4,000.
They got their money back almost soon as
they could cut through the hull.

 Some candidates say they want to cut toxes and reduce public functions. How and where do they pun to ncke the cuts and what services would they further reduce? Schools? Pensions? Small boat hur- bors? The Development Bodrd? The University? Relief? Roads? Let them step up and name them off, or shdll urge the voter to pass them by us in sincere and ill-informed.
