|YugosIay Catholics
Blame Tito Regime in
Killing Of Priests
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
VATICAN CITY, Oct. 26.-The
Catholic news agency Central In
formazioni Prodeo yesterday made
public excerpts of a joint pastoral
letter by the Yugoslav espicopate
which blamed the Yugoslav govern
ment for the assassination of Cath
olic priests and other forms of re-
ligious persecution.
The letter was read September 80
in Yugoslavia's Catholic churches.
Marshal Tito Wednesday criti-
cized the letter and said 1t clearly
shows the hostility of its writers to
the new Yugoslavia. He accused
Catholic priests of spreading ma
tional hatred" among the Serbs,
Croats and Bosnian Mohammedans.
Tito said he wondered why similar
pastoral letters were not issued dur
ing the Pavelitch regime and the
German occupation.
According to the Catholic news
agency, the letter asserted that "a
great number" of priests were in
termed in concentration camps, that
the church's land had been expro-
priated and that majority" of
Catholic schools was ordered closed
by Yugoslav authorities.

clergymen died, not due to battles

She declared the statement made

authorities" the letter added.
When military operations were
concluded, the condemnation of
priests did not cease.
The dead number 243, and 1869
are in prisons and concentration
camps, SO are missing-a total of SOL
victims. Many priests have been
condemned to hard labor for many
years.
ITO these must be added the as
sassination of 10 faithful, three lay
brothers and four nuns"
The letter acknowledged, however,
that some Catholic priests were
guilty of charges since they were
blinded by nationalist and party
passion and sinned against holy law
and Christian justice and charity"

ind. ACCIDENT
BOARD HIRES
OWN ATTORNEYS

Unrestricted latitude to hire any
number of attorneys which it might
find useful for legal advise or other
wise, is given the Industrial Accident
Board by an amendment to Section
1885 of the revised codes of 1885
passed by the legislative assembly in
1887. Previous to that time, the at
torney general of the state had been
the only source of legal advise for
that board as he is for all other
boards
Under this amendment the Indus
trial Accident Board, if 1t finds it adj
yantageous can employ attorneys
without consultation with the attor-
ney general The manner in which
this works, is indicated quite clearly
by activities during the last political
campaign of one OF such attorneys
employed by the board or its chair
man, Burke Clements. This attorney,
Newcomer, recently was held in con-
tempt and fined by the state supreme
court for some of his activities during
the campaign; no doubt all of such
activities having been directed by
Burke Clements, formerly considered
one of the political master-minds of
the democratic party who proved him
self political renegade to his sup
posed political faith and affiliations
in the campaign by supporting the
candidate for governor of the repub-
lican party and repaid by being reap
pointed by the governor to the posi-
ton of chairman of the Industrial
Accident Board
The law governing procurement of
legal assistance by the Industrial Ac-
cident Board is as follows:
Section 1886: The attorney gen
sral shall be the legal adviser of the
board and shall represent it in all
whenever so requested by
he board or any member thereof

WAR BONDS KEEP FARM
DEBTS SAFE"

Encourage farmers to maintain
proper balance between making pay
ments on mortgages and investing in
war bonds" says the American Bank
ers Association in bulletin addressed
to the rural bankers of America.
Banks are advised to encourage
farmers to maintain proper balance
between making payments on mort
cages and investing in war bonds. If
a person pays a mortgage all up now,
and then has to get another one after
the war he may not be able to get
terms as favorable as those he now
has"
The bankers also call attention to
the fact that wear and tear on farm
machinery and buildings must be paid
for eventually, whether or not the
mortgage is all paid off. A farmer
will probably be in safer position
to end up the war with moderate
sized mortgage at low interest rate
and a good nest egg in war bonds
than no mortgage, no bonds, and bad
ly rundown buildings and equipment"
This is part of the program of the
American Bankers Association aimed
at getting farmers to build up large
enough war bond reserves to give
them financial protection in the post
war period.

FARM MACHINE
SUPPLY same
AS In 1914

During the 1915 crop year it is ex-
pected that American farmers will OBJ
tain approximately the same amount
of new farm machinery and attach
ments as they did in the previous
year and nearly $20,000,000 more in
repair parts, the Office of War In
formation said today in a report on
farm machinery production and distri-
button. The supply probably will not
meet greatly expanded demands.
Data for the comprehensive report
were supplied by the War Food Adj
ministration, War Production Board,
Bureau of Agricultural Economics and
the Foreign Economic Administration.
Highlights of the report follow:
l. Approximately 80 per cent of the
new farm machines Except tractors)
rolling off assembly lines in the
United States during the 1915 produc-
ton year July 1, 1914, to June 80,
1945) will be available to American
farmers.
Approximately 10 per cent will go
abroad approximately per cent in
commercial exports, and per cent
through lend-lease, according to the
Foreign Economic Administration.
2. For the 1915 production year,
farm machinery companies have
scheduled slightly more production in
dollar value-a total of s697, 000,0 600

CIVILIAN SUPPLIES WILL BE LOW

Supplies of meat, butter, sugar, can
ned and packaged foods, clothing, and
many durable goods will be smaller
in 1915, OPA advises. Record buying
and increased military demands in
1914 greatly reduced reserves, which
have so far helped meet demands.
The present scarcity of metal house
hold equipment and appliances will re-
main acute until peacetime produc-
ton can be resumed AT the same
time more people will be eager to re-
place equipment and household fur
nishings that are now more nearly
worn out Shortages always generate
an urge to pay higher prices to get
more. This increases the dangers of
initiation. In 1945, OPA states, sup
plies will be large enough to meet
essential civilian needs but much
smaller than the amount people could
