COMMUNISM DYING IN
NORWAY ASSERTS PRIME
MINISTER, VISITING U. S.
MINNEAPOLIS, (iP) — Com
munism is dying out in Norway,
that nation’s prime minister said
here Monday night.
Einar Gerhardsen told a press
conference there are only 50,000
Communists in his country today,
compared with the 180,000 that
cast votes in the 1945 election.
Speaking through an interpreter
the prime minister charged the
Communists failing influence to
what Norwegians learned in
watching the Reds infiltration tac
tics in other countries, notable
Czechoslovakia.
The 53-year-old minister said
that Norway is speeding up its
defense program.
