REFUGE IN SWEDEN
SOUGHT BY NORWEGIAN QUISLINGITES.
PARTY LIKELY TO COLLAPSE.
(Bv Telegraph—Press Association— Copyright) LONDON, June 9.
A considerable number of high officials and Quislingites of the Nasjonal Samling Party are reported to have fled recently from Norway to Sweden in search of safety, says Reuter’s Stockholm correspondent. They form only part of a massive flight of Quislingites from the’ party, a flight that has been a feature of life in Norway since the Allied victory in Tunisia. The names of high officials cannot be given, but one is among the oldest members of the party and is the chief Quisling Commissar of the Norwegian Labour movement. Another is the chief of the Quisling S.S. in a province north of Oslo.
Other reports say that Major Quist, commander of the Quislingite volunteers on the Eastern front, who recently returned to Oslo on leave, has refused to return to the front. Numbers of less important Eastern front volunteers have fled to Sweden. Observers believe that the Quisling Party will collapse within a month of the opening of the second front.
