Daring Raid On Norway
Former U. S. Warship
LONDON, Apr. 15 (Router). -A former United States war- ship led the raid on a north Norwegian port early on Satur- day morning. It was one of the American destroyers taken over by the British last year, four of which are now sailing under the Norwegian flag.
The landing party were mostly hardened Norwegian sailors and fishermen with a sprinkling of prota who knew every fjlord and inlet of the intricate Norwegian coast,
The destroyer crept in during the early hours of the morning, and landed the party of volunteers. Telephone and telegraph wires were cut, and local "qutblings" and Ger- mans were rounded up.
Factory Destroyed
Stocks from a fish oll factory were acized and the factory destroyed, atter which other e depois were disposed of and the harbour works blown up. The Germans were taken completely by surprise and it WAS HUG until 24 hours later that the Nazis in the outside arca got wind of the raid,
Having done its job well, the des- troyer drew off in the early morning without a single Allied loss.
