Shorter leaves and more frequent tours of duty in Allied sea lanes where anti-submarine devices are 5690mm; over more effective are said to be the cause oi the mutiny, reported to have occurred yesterday at a Norwegian base,

STORIES 0F DISCONTENT

The YEW". Calming a series of stories of discontent and weakening morale amo German forces in Norway, recallfed the mutiny of sail. crs of the German high sea fleet in October. i918, In one of the major stem of the German collapse 1n the First. Great War.

‘The base where the reported dis- affection occurred was not. disclosed but Norwegian circles said it mighl be Trondheim. or in the Trondheim area. where the Nazfs based much of their fleet this spring to prey u . 0h wflyflys moving to Soviet Russilt. It. was at Trondheim that Admiral Otto Clllax. commander-iu-chfef of German naval forces in Norway. was reported to have warned 2,000 Nazi Marines that Norway would be invaded "within a short time." Norwegian sources with reliable connections with the efficient un- derground in their home country said “recent reports from northern Norway say that remarkably many German warships are always lying in harbours for rerpalrs of some small damage which they sustained only a short time after they put to sea. People (Norwegians) cannot help thinking that most of these damages were intentional to enable the marines to come ashore as soon as oosible."

MORAL!) POOR. IN NORWAY

There have been many reports of poor morale and arrests among German army troops in Norway. and recently German marines - - the best Nazi forces in Norway - - also were pictured as affected. 0b- servers said any extensive mutiny in the ranks of marines would have widespread effects.

(In the First Great War, the Ger- man high sea fleet mutinied on Oct. 29, 1918. when the order was Riven to prepare for sea for a last raid in- to the English channel. ‘There were incidents among other units. Most. of the crews of destroyer and aub- marlne flotillss. however. remained loyal to the end.)

U-Boat Crewmen Have

By J. M. Roberts, In, Associated Press War Analyst

The next few weeks may show that a. “Hitler's choice"-albeit a. hard one for him-was largely responsible for the present lull in the battle of

the Atlantic.

There is no question that new escort systems and long-range air patrol have sent U-boat killings up, but it is doubtful that they are more than partly res onsible for uumolested convoys.

To Hitler, t e battle of the Mediterranean is fur more urgent. It seems almost axiomatic that, during the weeks when Atlantic conditions have been so much improved, the enemy has been deployln his U-boats ce and actual defence o

Hitler knows that the Rhone Volley offers a far better road t_o Berlin than docs the Italian mainland, and that the Allies may ignore hi5 weak- ened and disillusioned Axis partner in favor of coming to grips with him

directly.

In spite of all the talk, there is not a. great deal he can do about it on land, over and above what he has done. Coastal fortification takes time-time which he cannot be sure will be available. And an overwhel- min" proportion of the German troops available for the defence of West- crn Europe must be tied to the English Channel—tied flnn Canadians made formidable by long training under Win18. plus for- mitilahle Blrltlish andlrttmetrgcamlrjound armies Sllllllllhw b? all’
