THE CHINA MAIL, APRIL 20, 1940
NORWEGIANS WOULD LIKE TO MEET MR. QUISLING
London, To-day.
"I don't know where Quisling is now, but I and a number of other Norwegians would very much like to get hold of him!” said a Norwegian offi- cial who has just arrived in London from Nor- way, where he has been in close touch with King Haakon and the Norwegian Government. He said that the treachery from within had been over-emphasised. Much of it had been caused through false orders and announcements put over the radio by the Germans.
GERMAN AIR LOSS FIGURES
Londón, To-day.
The German claim that "during the last few days the British could only bring down 10 German planes," is ridiculed in authoritative circles in London.
It is stated that the official British bulletins covering the period April 6 to April 17 recorded 28 German air- craft destroyed and 19 badly damag- ed, probably lost.
To this must be added figures from Stockholm of six aircraft brought down or interned in Sweden and 10 destroyed by the Norwegians.
In addition, at the lowest `estimate, the 10 must have been destroyed in bombardment of Stavanger.
Thus the total must be reckon- ed at 54 German aircraft lost and 19 badly damaged, probably lost. British losses for the same as officially announced are 25 craft of various types.-Reuter.

For instance, the Minister of De- fence appointed by Quisling when the puppet government was formed was actually in Finland at the time and! knew nothing about it. He has since arrived in Norway and has joined the Norwegian forces.
Again, Quisling's Minister of Justice has already placed himself at the dis- posal of the true Norwegian Govern- ment and another Minister has been captured by Norwegian soldiers,
He said that 2,000 German troops were arriving dally by 'plane, and his own estimate of the number of German troops in Norway at the moment is 60,000.
This is somewhat higher than other sources put it, some of them going as
low as 30,000.
