BELGRADE - Jugoslavia
feared Monday that it would
be swept quickly into the
flaming war in the Balkans,
possibly through demands by
Germany and Italy for pas
sage of troops which most
Jugoslav sources said would
be resisted.
italian troops, aided by strong
air units, opened their attack on
Greece in the Camurjia district,
just south of Albania, and heav-

the strategic Greek island of
Corfu. according to reports re-
ceived here.
Information received here
was that the Italian attack
upon Greece followed a wide
spread uprising In Albania
which resulted In repeated
clashes between italian armed
forces and Albanian rebels In
the mountainous district close
10 the Greek border.
Widespread apprehension was
aroused here by the outbreak and
fear of Jugoslav embodiment was
general. Urgent consultations
were underway to determine
Jugoslavia's position. which was
expected to be one of neutrality.
A similar position of neutrality
was expected OF Bulgaria.
Turkeys position was un-
eertain rs yet. The Turkish
legation said, however, That
no announcement Of Turkeys
