BULGARIAN WAR MINISTER ASSASSINATED AND ANOTHER DUTCH QUISLING MINISTER. CLAIM BY COMMISSAR IN DENMARK. (By Telegraph—Press Association—Copyright) (Received This Day, 10.40 a.m.) LONDON, February 14.
Following on a report from Berlin of the assassination of General Mikhoff, Bulgarian War Minister, the Germancontrolled Swedish Telegraph Bureau reported the assassination of Van Vavenswaasy, Social Minister in the Dutch Quisling Government. • (Others recently killed in Holland, alegedly by Dutch patriots, include Seyffardt, the only Dutch general who supported the Nazis, Reydon, Propaganda Minister in the Dutch Quisling Government, and Reydon’s wife.) General Mikhoff was shot in the presence of his daughter. The assassin, who wore goggles, followed Mikhoff inside the doorway of the house, fired on his prostrate body, and then fled. Dr. Werner Best, Imperial Commissar in Denmark, is quoted by the Berlin radio as saying: “Germany is going through unheard-of difficulties. I appreciate that Denmark is going through times which certainly are not easy, but the fact remains that Denmark and Germany find themselves in the same boat, and neither of them can get out of it.”
