RAD|TCH'S ILLNESS
ST|RS JUGOSLAWA
Troops Reported Modified to
Prevent Trouble in Event
of Leaders Death.

Py the Associated Press.
VIENNA, August There were in
dications today that feeling was run
ming high in Jugoslavia with Stefan
Raditch, who has been the cause OF
perhaps more political storms than any
other European statesman since the war,
precariously i'll.
The Belgrade government was report
ed to have drafted several regiments for
duty at Zagreb to prevent trouble in
event of Raditchs death. vladimir
Hristovitch, editor Of the Belgrade
paper Jedinsto. has been asSassinated
for attacking Raditch in his paper.
Dispatches from Zagreb said an I'M
founded rumor of Raditch's death drew
thousands of excited people to the
Croat peasant party leaders villa
Hundreds of persons we're remaining
around the leaders home awaiting re-
ports from the sick bed. Two specialists
have been summoned from Vienna and
one from Munich.
Wounded by Deputy.
Raditch was wounded by Monte
negrin deputy on June 20, who during
a session of Parliament fired at the
Croatian deputies. killing two. including
Raditch's nephew Paul, and Woundine
three others.
There has been talk that the kingdom
of the Serbs, Croats and SlOvenes
formed in 1918 might evolve into dual
monarchy patterned after the late
Austro- Hungarian empire. Parliament
is already split, the National Assembly
meeting at Belgrade and the opposition
4a1cYkS110pc Croatia ndpafiJ10 In
zagreb.
The meeting of the Croat Parliament
developed into popular demonstration
in favor of free Croatia" A series
Of resolutions were adopted refusing to
recognize any decision or financial OBJ
legations undertaken by the ''rump'
Parliament at Belgrade. The resolu-
tons also claimed full individuality for
each of the provinces united in 1918
and full autonomy for the Croatian
people.
The fire of hatred among the parties,
which eliminated in the shooting in
June, had been temporarily extinguished
by the efforts of King Alexander, who
effected reconciliation in 1925. When
Raditch was appointed minister of ed
ucation by the King at that time il
was thought that Jugoslavias internal
political troubles were at an end
Had Attacked Italy.
Raditch, however, precipitated new
crisis IN April, 1926, when he and men,
bers Of his party resigned from the
cabinet upon their demand being refused
for the reconvening of Parliament in
order to question the premier on
charges of graft made against his son
The activities and speeches of Ra-
ditch had far-reaching effects and on
several occasions his attacks upon italy
and Premier Mussolini caused strained
and delicate situations between the two
countries.
After Raditch had been shot, his adj
herents withdrew from the cabinet and
since then his party has consistently
refused to acknowledge the legality of
the Jugoslav government.

Weather conditions hampered the
work of salvaging the SD, conditions
in the Adriatic were reported unfavor-
able for rescuing the FLA,
When the S-4 went down. the hulk
lay on the bottom for days while the

ped out messages TO their rescuers.
On December 10, two days after the
collision, there came the family tapped
message, rs there any hope?" and O
day later the tapping became unintel-
ligible and there were no more signals,
Then the weather became too rough
to work and the task was temporarily
abandoned. The S-4 was not raised
until several months later.
Sinking OF the F-i6 adds one more
tragedy to the list of those in which
nayies have figured in the past decade.
