Tunisia, and is well called the liberia
tor of Libya.
He directed the campaign along
the underside of Sicily, which con-
tributed to the quick subjugation of
Sicily and the collapse of the Musso-
lini regime.
Gen. Montgomery is recognized
and respected as great military
commander by the American forces
in England, and it augers well for the
success of the forthcoming invasion
that he will have high post of com
mand in the operation.
The words uttered by Gen. Mont
gomery on the eve of this vital mill
tary undertaking are SOLDERING.
He indicates that while the inva-
sion may come soon, the end of the
war in Europe will not necessarily
come soon.
He says that while the victorious
peace lis not so far off, :" the collapse
of Germany is not to be expected
until 1915.
THE Allied world, America in
Guided, well may hope that the
decisions about the so -called second
front will be made by military men
and not by politicians.
Competent military men will not
be hurried into premature invasion.
They may be depended upon to
weigh the chances of success and the
lives of their men.
Politicians are all too Wone to
attempt the attainment of a desired
purpose without weighing any cost
If the imminent but "protracted
struggle of unprecedented magnitude
and completely" is undertaken when
Gen. Montgomery says it is right and
the time for it is right. we may be
assured it will be successful and will
be eonsummated at minimum cost.
For he knows what he can do, and
he can do what he says.

LETTERS
TO THE EDITOR:

TO THE EDITOR:
IT IS three years since the
L voice of the Serbian people
rang through the world. verify
ing the historical fact that the
Serbs are not traitors and two
faced and that the Serbs tread
only one directed and verified
lane.
1t is three years since King
Peter IT. the son of the late
King Alexander. took over the
throne, fulfilling the desire of
his people.
II is three years since March
81, 1871. which is recognized in
the history of the preSent-the
bloodiest Of all wars and las a
date which has become a part
OF American history" according
To American correspondents IN
their first reports from Yugo-
slavia,
There are some points in con-
nection with the developments
OF this historical day which
have 10 be clarified TO the
American public TO refute
planned attempts TO mlsrepre-
sent and destroy this great day
for all Serbs.
There is "A group of indlVid-
uals who call themselves Yugo-
slavs and they praise the Mar
shall Tito" as the only active
military leader in YugoSlavia
and the man responsible for
everything which happened in
Yugoslapia on that memorable
day.
1t is not necessary 10 discuss
just who Tito is and when he
began his movement in Yugo-
slavia. BY now the American
public is acquainted fairly we'll
with him and his followers.
But il is necessary to acquaint
the American public with the
fact that there is too large a
lapse of time between March
u, 1871. and TIE first appear
ance Of the still uncertain name
OF Marshal Tito"
The coup d'etat is the event
Of Belgrade, the capital of Yugo-
slavia. and was carried out by
the people of Belgrade, whose
majority were Serbs. The coup
d etat was organized especially
again st-the inland enemies,
against the group which pre-
ierred rather surrender than
war According TO dispatches
which have become the most
valuable documents as TO the
occurrences OF those days, al 3

27th OF March, 1871. trusted of

-tAe-eeap-d WAS fulfilled
King Peter III had been en-
throned with the full approval
of his guardian, Patriarch Cav
-r-rfov, who had been one of the
instlgators of the coup detat.
The coup d'etat, unfortunately.
was nothing else but means
of defending SerbIas national
honor There was still the prob
lem of Yugoslavia and the dual
civil war. the war between the
Serbs and Croats and the Fas-
cists and anti-FasciSts, in adj
dltion 10 the war between Yugo-
Slavia and Germany.
The 9th of March was the
beginning of "A war first against
the inland Fascist group. led by
the leader of the underground
Croauan organization, "UStashi. "
who were trying for a long time
10 start such a conflict in Yugo-
Slavia, and then after six days.
supported by those FascistS. the
Germans, almost without a war,
occupied Yugoslavia.
Knowing that the Free Croa-
tan State still existed in occu-
pied YugoSlavia, there is no
doubt now as 10 what the rea-
son was for the 9th of March
and who the leaders were of
that movement There were
two groups in question before
the 9th of March and which
were involved. and struggle
between them developed from
the Serbian deeiSieH-the coup
d'etat on the 9th of March,

Educating for Usefulness

MANY Of the social maladjust
wi ments stem from faults III our
educational system.
Abusing the privilege Of free
speech, irresponsible teachers con
fuse the young with false ideologies.
MARKHAM and ether fallacies are
repeatedly aired on the campuses
under the guise Of objective truth.
There has passed from the scene a
different and infinitely useful type of
educator Herman Schneider, dean
of the University Of Cincinnati Col
lege of Engineering and Commerce.
DEAN SCHNEIDER was a great
- innovator and he developed
new and successful educational tech
nique for fuslng the practical and
the theoretical.
He called his new educational
method the co operative system.
Under this concept, the student
spent part Of the year IN the class
room and the remainder IN an out
side paid job.
BY doubling with another CO
operative student, he was able to
satisfy his employers desire to have
some one continuously on the job.
This idea was later adopted by
Antioch College, which publlcized the
method widely.
THE technique whetted the desire
of students to acquire scientific
and other knowledge for which they

The 9th of March was called
a political event only because 1T
had 10 do with the Serbian POI
litical traditions. According TO
eye-witnesses. the Serbians had
revolted first in order 10 live up
10 their proud traditions.
They had realized that there
was no place in Hitler's empire
for any one who was neither a
German nor a slave.
The Serbs had made the error
Of submitting once before after
the Battle of kossovo in 1889
and they had been slaves OF the
Turks for 500 years.
Now. we Serbians of Detroit
only wish TO present before the
American public the bare truth
about this memorable day and
TO bring out the unScrupulous
attempts of some Partisan"
followers who celebrate the 9th
OF March in honor OF Tito" and
the Partisan mo*efent in Yugo-

4 Job for Military Men

DRIME MINISTER CHURCHILL
of Great Britain and Gen. Sir
Bernard L. Montgomery, chief of
British invasion forces, have con-
Cured in recent statements that an
Allied invasion of western Europe is
imminent and that it will be "a pro
tracted struggle of unprecedented
magnitude and complexity.'
What Mr.. Churchill says is apt to
be politically significant rather than
militarily authoritative.
But what Gen Montgomery says
is said on the military authority of
England's greatest military com
mander in the present war - the
greatest, indeed, since Wellington.
THE Allied world would be better
1 informed about the war if Mr..
Churchill let Gen. Montgomery do
the talking, and the Allied war will
be more quickly won if military de
cisions are made by military men of
the type of the Irish descended Gen.
Montgomery.
Mr.. Churchills flare for oratory
is undenied, but his military reputa
ton is not of the same high character.
In this war, he thought Italy was
THE soft under belly of the Axis, "
but it has proved the most difficult
point of invasion.
In the last war, he was principally
responsible for the Inflated campaign
on the Gallipoli Peninsula which
made the war cost Britain more than
necessary and probably made it last
longer than necessary.
War is job for military men
not for professional politicians and
amateur warriors.
