MihuiIovich

The story of General Draja Mi
hailovich is a striking Illustration OF
how bitterly ironic the processes OF
history can be. Five years ago he
was hailed throughout the Allied
world as one of the great heroes OF
the war. Today, after having been
hunted for almost two years, he is a
prisoner of the Tito government of
Yugoslavia and faces the prospect OF
S traitors death in his own land.
1t takes only a little jogging of the
memory to recall the explosive spring
of 1941 when the Yugoslavs over
threw their government for making
a deal with Hitler and when General
Mihailovich suddenly emerged as the
leader of the forces who took to the
halls and mountains to strike back
at the Nazi invaders. For months
thereafter this man and his Serbian
.followers-the Chetniks-were leg
end inspiring the free world, brave
and shining example of patriotism
at its best, great, courageous legion
loving liberty more than life and
fighting on against tremendous odds
to harry and Illustrate the will of
tyrant.
But in time the legend, which GER
tainly seemed true enough at its
start, began to fade The factions of
Yugoslavia, the bitter divisions exist
ing among the Serbs, CroatS and
Slovenes, threw shadow over it..
and gradually from some Allied
sources there came rumors and
charges that Mihailovich was not
quite the man he had once appeared
to be- Early in 1943, the Soviet Union
fatty accused him of collaborating
with the Axis, and a bit later, echo
ing Moscow, Marshal Tito, his bitter
rival and leader of the Partisans,
declared that he had even melted
the Bulgarians to fight his country
men. Much of this suggested de-
liberate smear campaign, and it is
still open to question in several
respects, not least because the Chet-
niks were then reported to be giving
battle to the Germans and Mihail-
oyich's wife was languishing in a
Nazi concentration camp.
Yet there can be little doubt that
something went wrong at some point
with the once-celebrated leader of
the Chetniks, In any case, in May
of 1914, the Royal Yugoslav govern
ment found it necessary to oust him
as Minister of War, and Prime Min
lister Churchill felt moved to tell the
House of Commons that Britain had
stopped sending arms to him for the
simple reason that "he has not been
fighting the enemy and, moreover,
some of his subordinates have made
accommodations with the enemy
From then on it was Marshal Tito
alone who received Allied support in
Yugoslavia.
1t remains to be seen, however
whether the Tito regime will be able
to prove. as it promises to do. that
Mihailovich ever actually committed
treason A world which few short
years ago sang his praises will want
to be convinced of that. and so his
trial should be as fair and as open

as possible, If the proof exists, It,
should be brought forward in full.
Otherwise the guilt and disgrace of
this man will rematn-despite many
such ironies in history-a matter of
grave doubt in the minds of many
who were once inspired by him.
