Christiana, Norway, Feb. 26.-Ger-. man Socialists have failed in an ef- fort to negotiate a deal with the Nor- wegian Socialists to supply them with 40,000 tons oPd German coal as pay- ment for distribution of German prop- aganda in Norway. The Germans de- manded also that the Socialistic fac- tion of the Storthing, seek to modify the agreement for exporting of Nor- wegian fish to Great 'Britain so as to increase the amount of fish sent to Germany. A plan similar to this was success- fully negotiated by the German So- cialists in Denmark and, it is claimed, that the Germans induced in that way they Danish Socialists, their press and representative in the Danish cabinet to take a pro-German attitude. ; Wilhelm Jansson, leader of a So-, cialistic press bureau in Berlin was sent to Norway to put the deal through here. The Norwegian Social- istia leaders rejected the proposition although the German agent made re- peated efforts to bring them to his terms. It is claimed that Jansson rep- resented the Imperial German author- ities in attempting to .obtain social- istic support for Germany in Norway.
