Britain “reported all raiders re- turned safely from the Stavanger attack and only one was missing ! after the Aalborg foray. Joint Action Successful. A well-informed source said Brit- ish and Norwegian troops had joined “at severai places” and that joint action in Eastern Norway, near | Lake Mjosen, had been “extremely | successful.” Strong allied forces were deployed | along potential battle lines spotting | Norway’s enow-packed mountains | and valleys and signs pointed to- ward impending showdown battles with the Germans. “The Norwegians rally well,” this source said, “getting more and more arms, and the morale of officers and men is very high.” Because of the rugged terrain, he predicted a minimum of large-scale operations and said most of the fighting probably would be done by comparatively small bodies. Norwegians Praised. This informant said answers could be expected in a few weeks to the much-debated military questions: Can a force be maintained in a hostile country by air communica- tions alone? Can troops be landed if the enemy has temporary and local air superiority? So far, he said, the answer to the second question has been satisfactory from the British viewpoint, Praising the fighting of the Nor- wegians and emphasizing that Britain, France and Norway all have now, he declared that the Germans might not have reached Oslo had it not been” for “forged orders” and the fact that the Norweglans were caught before their army was This source said there had been “practically no losses” so far in Brit- ish landings in Norway, but that ‘We can’t expect that happy state to continue forever.” Norwegians Lack Equipment, He said British contacts with the Norwegians had shown them to be greatly lacking in equipment. Indication that the Germans ex- pected no resistance in Norway, he said, was seen in thelr attempts to land parachute soldiers and their dispatch of a small force all the way to Narvik, on the northern Norwe- gian coast. Germans on the whole Atlantic seaboard around “the nose” from the Skagerrak, he said, virtu- ally have been isolated from all ex- cept air communications. On the home front, the Ministry of Home Securlty “urgently” warned Britons against raising shades to watch night air battles from lighted windows. It sald & “considerable number” of inhabitants of a south- east coast town had shown lights were fighting off German raiders. Troop Moves Veiled. The allled high command still veiled its troop movements to keep the Germans guessing where their expeditionary force would strike. Frontier dispatches revealed, how- ever, that the Germans were trying to get reinforcements by air to stave off impending attacks on two fronts —the Trondheim region on the west central coast and the Oslo district.
