He is Indeed a master of unique dimension in the art of using his native language. In the main, Mr. Hambro's address Saturday evening was informal and intimate. He began by referring to the fact that one of th basic principles evident in I he life of the Norwegian people, even from the time before 872, when king Harald Haarfagre gathered the people into one kingdom, and running down through I the people's enHre history, was this: that "Med Laav Skal Land Byg- ,gcs " The land must be built and governed according to law Nu person can be punished until sentenced Justly. No one can be sentenced without having had a fair trial according to law." I When the Nazis sneaked into the country April 9, 1940. and ever since, the Norwegian people have been punished in a most barbaric way, without judgment and without trial according to law. Presi dent Hambro stressed the fact j that, during the long period of na-tional and international peace, 'Norway had enjoyed, and especially during latter decades, when (I he nation enjoyed progress and 1 internal development in every line, 'until the country ranked far .have feared that the people had H ' their rugged strength, physically and spiritually.
