NAZI-OCCUPIED EUROPE

A SERIES OF United Press reports give a vivid picture of the unsettled conditions in German-occupied Europe.

A Stockholm despatch reports that a state of siege has been declared at Salesund, west- ern Norway, because of sabotage and anti- German demonstrations.

The despatch said Norse patriots damaged German communications establishments and and military that the Germans seized 10 lead- ing Salesund citizens as hostages.

When the police took them to the ship for transport to Ger- many, 5,000 persons tried to res- cue them and it was necessary to cull soldiers.

The German official news agenoy from Belgrade reported nine under-

"Communists" were ex- ecuted in north-eastern Yugo-

distilled in the Far East, doubtless intended to appeal to experimental graduate palates.
