Claim Nazi Fanatics Set| To Fight Allies From Forests. : Times Foreign Service BERN, Switzerland, Sept. 13.—A vast resistance movement for the

post-capitulation period, composed of Nazi formations, is now building

~ clandestine information reaching . the usually well-informed Swiss St. . Galler Tagblatt. The general scheme, it appears, fs that the Nazis will resist allied occupation troops from hidden dugouts and forest recesses,

will be among wooded regions such as Thuringia, the Black forest, the Bavarian forest, the Pomeranian coast and certain areas of upper Bavaria. . Several vears ago vast underground installations 130 feet deep were constructed in those regions. “Rooms were constructed, either hewn out of rock or strongly concreted, ‘These are now’ used as heavy armaments factories. Hiding Explosives Bombarded towns will serve as i principal bases for the fight against & the allied occupations. Ruins will | make invaluable hideouts {rom which to launch attacks. Fanatical Nazis are now installing in the ruins underground chambers containing arms, food and explosives. The Nazi hope is that sudden ttacks launched from such devastated cities will end by shattering the nerves of the occupying troops whose headquarters will be systematically blown up. It is reported that the safety of numerous depots of arms and munitions inside towns is so well assured that they can be opened only by, 8 special “key.” Otherwise they explode. The defense of Kiev and Odessa has shown that an adversary who is prepared for everything can hold out for years in such underground quarters whence he gradually undermines the morale of the city's occupants. According to the Nazi ideg the allies will be obliged, therefore, to keep an exceptional number of troops in Germany which they will

up inside Germany, according to

DISOBEYS RULE, WINS CITATION

Atmy Changes Regulations After Flier Bags Zeros With Smuggled Guns.

Observing army regulations is one way to. get a citation—breaking them 1s another. Or so it appears judging from the case of Lt. Jerry W. Schlesinger, son of Mr. and Mrs. Jerry R. Schlesinger, formerly of Indianapolis. : “oe The latter course isn’t recommended in the soldier's , handbook but it turned out pretty well for the Indianapolis bombardier. He not only got a medal for the infringement—the army changed the regulation to suit his way of thinking. Lt. Schlesinger was cited in January for an oak leaf cluster to the air medal which he won through his wrong doing. The first award was made after he smuggled two flexible machine guns, into his bombardier compartment before a mission. A regulation forbade guns in the compartment—that is, until it was
