Rebuild Property
This eontraet would specify the types of work, rates of pay and other conditions under which prisoners of war would work to rebuild property destroyed by their own wehrmacht. Six countries victimized by Adolf Hitler already have appealed for more than 3,500,000 German and Italian soldier-laborers.’ France, Holland, Belgium, .Luxembourg, Yugoslavia and Greece said they did not want “slave labor,” but needed manpower for their immense reconstruction programs. American officials, it was said, have not. yet figured how Soviet Russia, with its more than 3,000,000 German prisoners of war, will fit into the general prisqner of war picture in Europe.

Believe Terboven Suicide; Quisling Will Face Trial
OSLO, May 11 (U. P.) ~Vidkun. Quisling was due to go on trialtoday for treason but it appeared that the Nazi governor of Norway, Josef Terboven, had escaped a similar fate by blowing himself to bits. : Some mystery still shrouded the death of Terboven, but the likeliest explanation was that he had dynamited himself to death in his secret underground fortress at Skaugum, near Oslo. i » 5 o he was believed to have died was beneath his official residence, a ‘castle which the Germans seized from the Norwegian crown prince.Every room in Terboven's elaborate underground fortress showed signs of a violent explosion. The room where the blast actually took place was a mess of cracked concrete and blasted steel. Charred rubble was three feet deep on the floor.
= ” » IT WAS impossible to tell at once whether Terboven's body was buried beneath the debris, but the servant who conducted a United Press reporter there called it. the room “where Terboven blew himself to pieces.” The reichscommissar must have been inspired by dreams of imitating Berchtesgaden, when he created the cellar, There were probably 80 rooms, including a radio-room, hospital, an operating
wine and ammunition.
” » n ’ THREE MORE of Norway's top criminals—Police® Minister Jonas Lie, Minister of Justice. Sverre Riisnaes, and Police Chief Henrik Rogstad—still were holding out in a castle in the Oslo suburbs. The date of the Norwegian government's return to the capital
