Germans Clamp Down Military Dictatorship

By JOHN COLBURN (Associated Press Staff Writer)

STOCKHOLM, Aug. 29 — (AP) —- Germany clamped down a military dictatorship over Den- mark today, but the effort to crush the revolting Danes met violent resistance immediately as Dan- ish navai forces scuttled most of their fleet in o. battle with German troops.

Forty-five ships were scuttled as the battle raged in Copenhagen naval yard with Nazis storm- ing in vainly trying to prevent the destruction, said one Danish witness‘ who escaped to Sweden. Fighting also was reported in Copenhagen bar- racks between the Germans and Royal guard this afternoon. ,

Fresh German troops, planes, tanks and armored cars were flung into the little kingdom swept by rebellion and sabotage.
