Jugosluus to XIII
" Pro-Aais Traitors
Doom Officials Who Assist
Nasi Invaders.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS are striking
back at the reign of terror Nazi
agents are waging in occupied Eu-
rope with newly formed ''execu-
ton corps" pledged to kill all
traitorous public officials who help
the Axis.
Reports reached refugee govern
ments in London that the Axis secret
police forces had unearthed num-
Der of plots to sabotage the Ger
man war effort and stir up unrest in
the occupied nations.
An unimpeachable source assert
ed that in occupied Jugsolavia the
Axis had reason to fear for the lives
of its puppet officers, as the Juge-
slav government here has given
patriot General Draja Mikhailovitch
full powers to brand as traitors all
Slavs and Croats who work for the
occupation powers and to order their
death by members of his new corps.
The corps already has begun its
work, this source said, byN killing
a Professor Bulic, assistant chief of
Serbian Fascist forces, at Cacak, 20
miles southwest of Belgrade.
Lists have been tackled up at night
in all regions of Jugoslavia, bearing
names of men marked for death be-
cause of their collaboration with the
invaders, and the Jugoslav gov
eminent here warned in a broad
cast beamed to the homeland that
all who cooperate with occupying
authorities have been condemned to
death. :.
General Mikhailovitch has free
dom to direct the corps in his own
way, it was said, making sure that
all puppet officials sooner or later
are assassinated and the country rid
of traitors"

Telephone System Helps
Workers on BIG Planes

BUFFALO, N. Y. Employees
working on the final assembly of the
new Curtiss-C Commando, largest
twin-engine military cargo plane in
the world, have two-way telephone
system to aid them in their work.
The plan was devised when it was
found that due to the Commander
tremendous size and the din of near
by shop and flight test sounds at
the Curtiss-Wright corporation plant.
shouted orders from one section Of
the plane to another were unintel.
ligible. RI
The phone system proved the an.
swer to the handicap, enabling
crews to relay messages back and
forth between cockpit and tail and
cockpit and wings or landing gear.
The electrical impulses for the
telephone lines are generated by
three small dry cell batteries in a
small metal box that can be car
ried in jacket pocket.
A permanent telephone plug-in
jack built into the Commando s
fuselage enables refueling service
men to connect a portable phone for
conversation with the planes cabin.
