no concrete results from these ne
gotiations so far, except reports that
a number of those taken from Po-
land are struggling" back there.
Most of the 165 claimants to
American citizenship reported held
In Yugoslav concentration camps
were said to be OF German descent.
An official said that presumably the
Yugoslav government acted against
them as collaborators because of
their German blood. without any
formal charges. He emphasized that
none who fought for Germany
would be recognized as American
citizens.
Specific Reports on Deaths.
This official said the United
States had specific reports. by
name. of two deaths among those
in the Yugoslav concentration
camps. Indirect reports indicate
that as many as eight others may
have died, he added.
1t is impossible. he pointed out,
to determine whether the claimants
actually are entitled to American
citizenship until American Embassy
officials can interview them and
check on their records. Thus one of
the immediate remedial measures"
sought from Yugoslavia is an ar
rangement for such an investiga-
ton. Then Yugoslavia would be
expected to keep it's word and re-
lease for return to this country those
accepted as Americans among those
of German blood.
Altogether, an estimated 1000 to
$500 American citizens are said
to be in Yugoslavia now, most of
them wanting to return here. About
60 per cent are American by birth,
! the others naturalized citizens.
Many of them, the State Depart
ment charged formally, are being
prevented by Yugoslav authorities
from presenting themselves at the
American Embassy. 1t is only
those of German descent that the
Belgrade government is willing to
let leave. Those of Yugoslav blood
are claimed by Belgrade as Yugo-
slav citizens regardless of natural
Ization.
The dual nationality problem also
is involved in most of the cases of
an estimated 10000 American citi-
zens in Poland. Protracted nego-
tiations are expected to result in
about 500 of them being returned
to this country soon.
Note Condemns Practice.
| Varying results were reported in
the cases of two women mentioned
specifically in July 26 protest to
YugoSlavia about number of
! Americans who had been waiting
since April for exit visas. One,
Spasia Chetkovich, was said to have
arrived in the United States last
month. The other. Lillian Speng-
Ter, is believed being held for trial
! in Yugoslavia.
| In the note delivered in Belgrade
by Mr.. Patterson yesterday, the
United States expressed Its alb
horrence and condemnation" of
the slave labor" practices. 1t
charged that the Yugoslav govern
ment received from Is to so dinars
| 80 cents to SD day for the work
OF the slave laborers" who got no
benefit themselves
Mr.. Patterson pointed out that
international tribunals have re-
peatedly held that such treatment
of a nations citizens abroad is in
disregard of civilized standards of
justice and that it engages the re-
sponsibility of the State to the full
extent of the damages suffered by
| the individuals concerned"
Officials said that backing of
this Government for any individual
damage claims by victims of the
practice would depend on future

inescapable conviction that UNRRA
policies were deliberately designed to
force the inmates of the camps to
60 back to Poland. even though
many of them would do SO at peril
of their lives
Food Held Insufficient.
The report said UNRRA strove to
have all schools in the camps super
vised by representative of the War
saw regime, opposed licensing of
camp newspapers not approved by
that regime and deprived journal
lists displeasing to Warsaw of their
rations.
Excerpts from the report:
The amount of food is insufficient
and the quality is inferior. The
housing conditions are deplorable.
We saw 13 persons-eigilt adults and
five children-crowded into one
room.
THE Poles live in constant fear
of transfer from one camp to an
other. In many instances these
Poles make building habitable
through their work and ingenuity
Then they are suddenly uprooted
and must leave behind them their
fine vegetable gardens, personal be-
longings and other conveniences.
The Polish clergy have no free
dom of movement. They are con-
fined to their particular camps.
They have no right to gather to-
gether or the means of getting
together in a conference to discuss
problems of mutual interest.
Many Hardships Charged.
''The Poles are constantly harass-
ed by screening and rescreening.
Many hardships are caused. Break
ing up of families is a heart-rending
sight"
The report recommended the
establishment of commission by
American military government au-
thorities to which Polish civic or
ganizations might appeal griev-
ances. 1t also demanded that the
State Department and the Senate
investigate UNRRA activities.
