Prva ciklostilska tiskarna ma
Gorenjskem je zacela delovati
leta 1941 okolici Kranja. Pet
mesecev je delala, pet mesecev
je posredovala mucenim in pre-
ganjanim Gorenjcem svobodno
besedo. Nato so jo gestapovci
odkrili in jo unicili skupaj hi
SO, v kateri je bila skrita.
V nasilju, XII nj poznalo meja,
je bila Gorenjska v prvi polo
vici 1912 leta brez svojega It's
ka. Poedine stevilke "Sloven-
skega porocevalca', XII SO prisle
IL Ljubljane, so razmnozevali ma
pisalne stroje. Tako razmnoze-
ne stevilke so bile gorenjskim
borcem in gorenjskemu ljudstVu

so romale iz rok roke.

Partizanska tiskarna je bila
dolgo casa sen tudi gorenjskih
partizanskih tiskarn.,
ze sredi poletja 1943 leta je
bila misel zelo ziva a meseca de-,
cembra istega leta je postala
dejstvo.
Prva gorenjska partizanska
tiskarna je stekla pod Kamnis-
kimi planinami. To je bill velik
! dan. Vec tisoe kilogramov tezki
stroj je romel ma avtomobilu. Hi
tro je odpeljal IL okupatorjeve
postojanke. Nekje Sc je ustavil.
Tiskarji so stroj razdrli in ga
sami sprawl ma svoje mesto.
Tiskarna je bila moderno ure-
jena. Nekaj casa je imela ma
peljano cello elektriko, toda "a
radi konspiracije Sc je bilo tre-
ba oo ME posloviti.
Uspeh da novega poguma!
In gorenjski partizani so v
kratkem postavili novo tiskar-
no. Imenovali so jo "Trilof'' ker
je tie kla prav oh triletnici
Osvobodilne fronte. Morda je bill

proved zapeljiv in "Trilof" so
zato namestili v kraj, XII nj bill
dovolj warren. .Nemci SO zaceli
nekaj sumiti in "Trilof" je bilo
treba seliti. Selitev pa nj imela
srece. Padla je v nemsko Ease
do. Vec tiskarjev je oblezalo
mrtvih in del materiala je bill
izgubljen. Vendar Sc je selitev
nadaljevala in "Trilof" je pricel
z delom.
Tretja gorenjska tiskarna a
'Donas' je bila urejena v av-
gustu 1914 leta. Med vsemi 60
renjskimi je najboljsa in lahko
tiska tudi casopise. Ina svojo

that the British-American
financial talks here would be
concluded satisfactorily.
Asserting he did not want to
appear unduly pessimistic, the

that new difficulties have kept
arising in the six-week- long
conferences. These difficulties,
he said, should not be under
rated.
The talks will be discontin-
ued, Lord Halifax indicated, if
no substantial agreement is
reached within a certain time
limit. He would not specify
the time limit to which he re-
ferred.

Surplus Property Administra-
tor Symington disclosed today
that the Government will de-

declared.

the agency would do the job in the
best way 1t knows how. John w.
Steele of the Civil Service Commits
sion assured the employees that their
civil service status would not be
affected and that the shift would
not affect the tenure of either per-
manent or war service employees.
