Alexander Eidenboom, a Norwegian Jew, is charged by the Gestapo with being the organizer of an anti-Nazi propaganda center in Bergen, it is reported today in the Bergen Tidende.
The paper says that the Gestapo accuses Eidenboom of publishing three illegal anti-Nazi newspapers in Norway. Although they have not succeeded in discovering Eidenboom’s whereabouts, the Gestapo has confiscated his property and arrested two Norwegians as his alleged collaborators. The Bergen newspaper believes that Eidenboom escaped to England.
