The Montenegrins have cut the

The uprising in Montenegro seems
likely to bring to head the long
smouldering differences between the
Montenegrin supporters of former
King Nicholas and the faction adher-
ing to the plan for the incorporation
of Montenegro in the Jugo-Slav state.
King Nicholas has never recognized
the validity of the act of the Monte
negrin assembly last winter in de-
posing him and has continued to
maintain the old royal Montenegrin
government with it's seat in suburb
of Paris. Serbia is insistent upon the
adhesion of Montenegro to Jugo-
Slavia and claims that majority of
the Montenegrins favor the union.
The contention of the nationalist party
Montenegrin national assembly has.
been packed with pro-serbians,
making the action Of that body in
voting last April for, adhesion to the
Jugo-Slav state not truly representa-
tive of Montenegrin Opinion,

fixed by the U. S. Grain corporation

sentative Young, North Dakota, said
today after receiving the grain cor
poration's order. ~ s5@.ss.. s=.,
The light weight wheat was pro-
duced entirely in those four states. this
year, Mr.. Young said. He added that
