The majority of the Croat repre-
sentatives in the Council considered
his proviso as sufficient guarantee
hat the final arranging of the State
will not be made contrary to the
wishes and interests of the Croats.
Most of them, moreover, were not
in the least suspicious that any at
lacks against the Croatian freedom
and statehood will ever be made by
any parties to the union: Was not the
fundamental idea Of this union-the
preservation Of the integrity and
achievements of all three of the unit
ing peoples. the Serbs, the Croats and
the Slovenes?
Oh what wrong the poor, simple
minded, trusty fellows did by this at
.itude to their country and their peo-
pie.
PAN-SERBISM
Let us now consider the political
situation and development in Serbia
There, the Jugoslav idea was never
popular. With the exception of few
intellectuals, people were not even &C.
quainted with it. They were brought
up as Serbians, and Serbians only. It
is well-known fact, that many COM
mon people were absolutely unaware
of the existence of Croats and Slov-
enes, while many others, who did
hear something about them, were
unacquainted with the fact of clinical
relationship. When, as recently as
1926, S. Radich, as minister of educa-
ton, made a trip of inspection
through Serbia, Serbian peasants,
ignorant of the fact that Croats and
Serbs speak the same language, won-
dered that he, a Croat, could speak
Serbian"
This specific, exclusive Serbism Of
the people was both a cause and an
effect of the political development.
At the beginning of the 10th century
most of the Serbian nation was under
Turkish rule. In 1904 the first at
tempt towards liberation was made
under Kara George, the founder of
the present Jugoslav dynasty. This
attempt was partly successful and,
after several reversals, a few of the
Serbian districts were liberated and
semi-independent state of Serbia
was established. Since, however, a
great number of Serbs still remained
outside of that state, it was very nat
urally felt that the task had not yet
been accomplished, and that the fight
has to go on till the whole nation
finds itself free and independent "A
perfectly understandable and beauti.
full ideal, which, unfortunately, was
soon considerably changed and de.

New York.--"Tobacco trair' is an inconspicuous and relatively , short section of Water street. portion of old Manhattan that lies east by south in the district where New York's history began. It is there that tobacco comes in buiging bundles from Sumatra, Java,( Connecticut, Ohio, Pennsyl- vania, and way points.
 And there it was tha I encount- cred John Duys, whose ancestors knew a tobacco leaf when they saw one; and so 1t has been ever since. And in case you have put a gift cigar in your mouth, let me ex- plain that tobacco arrives in fra grant clusters and that these sam pies are the result of years of prowling over tobacco farmlands near and far.
 The first Sumatra tobacco ar- rived in New York about 1853, and 1t was only some 25 years later that the Duys came also.
 Being somewhat of smoker myself, I was interested to discover that while Havana may furnish most of the filters for cigars. Con- necticut furnishes considerable percentage of the wrappers used In the east. Tobacco, far from being q far-away industry, has been prov ing an important farming com mOdity right here in he dear old U. $. A.
 Connecticut Yankees have been tobacco conscious for many a gem eration, and the shade grown product of that state is so called because it Is developed under tents or similar shelters. If the soil falls to confor m to the last word in tests from Java and Sumatra. there's no one to blame but nature; and man has learned how to use scientific methods to overcome handicaps of climate and earth.
 Ohio, Wisconsin and PennsyI- vania, 1t seems. have remained few laps behind Connecticut. and the crop of those states, l was told, goes into the five-cent cigar which, one has been constantly reminded. is what the nation needs.
 out in Amsterdam. where most of the Manhattan wholesalers, in- cmding Meinherr Duys. go to look over the colonial stock, 1t seems there is a perfect job. It's that or the test smoker" This gent there are many, as matter or fact--has merely to sit back in his chair, light a cigar and make ms money. Good, bad or indifferent he has to smoke it, even as at an American banquet, which IS why he may earn his dough. And the buyers stand around waiting. His is not the job of critic, or he would be more highly paid. What the buyers are waiting for is q peep at the ash. If this comes out a cer- tain combination of whites and gravs, the deal Is on. If there Is no black rim. around the lighted sec tor. again the deal is on.
 once the demonstration has been made. the sampler can toss the cigar away and take up an- other. Tn the course of a working day. he demonstrates 150 cigars, more or less Every two hours he , is given bottle of milk to soothe [ his palate.
 And whereas the Sumatra' and 1 Java farms have Chinese who are to the tobacco born, and can ex-
 pert the crop almost from the roof. America Is rearing q generation of l young women whose decisions are , hard to oVerrule. | Hundreds of girls are used in the Connecticut tobacco farms and are
 as quick at noting the quality of the leaf as any Chinese coolie in
 the Dutch colonies.
