There were slogans of admoni-
ton on posters and in newspa-
per advertisements - "chew
your FOOD "save meat, use
more fish and BEANS" "save
fats, use just enough"
With the serious ardor in
which the economizing of food
was carried out during the first
world war went an unfailing
characteristic of the American
spirit, a humorous, gay geniali-
ty. The periodical Life" then
an organ of humor, abiding to
a Biblical incident, declared
that the Handwriting on the
wall was a warning from Hoov-
err to Belshazzar to cut out the
feast business" In another is
sue Life" admonished, "Do not
permit your child to take a bite
or two from al apple and throw
the rest away; nowadays even
children must be taught to be
patriotic to the core"
The present and recent "buy-
ers' strikes" in some cities have
also a precedent, though the one
that took place in 1920 was
nationwide and had the status
and flair Of a national move
ment. The time of that early
buyers strike was analogous, in
its relation to the war, to the
present ones. Then, as now,
there was, during a period from
a year and a half to two and
a half years following the end
ing of war, a condition Of high
prices, accompanied, again then
as now, by public resentment
and agitation. Then as now
there was demand that govern
ment do something about it.
And government, national, state
and municipal - took steps to-
ward holding prices down.
through varying actions of legal
compulsion, at and per-
suasion.
On the part of the public there
arose a resistance to high prices
which had much resemblance to
the present. 1t was done partly
in a spirit of gay and Haunting
defiance. Women, ignoring or
defying changes of style, wore
their last years hats and dress

became itself a vogue. "Our

Bad Man OfThe Balkans
BY T S

WASHINGTON, Oct. "A. -
With policing of the Balkans and
the rightness of the Truman doc
trine of aid to Greece and Tur-
key still two of the most con-
troversial issues before the Unit
ed Nations General Assembly in
New York, it might be fruitful
to force into the open the terms
of two treaties between Soviet
Russia and Yugoslavia.
American officials admit they
don't know too much about
what's in these documents. The
first was concluded in Moscow
in April, 1915. Bear in mind that
this was before We Day. Yet
Marshal Tito, alias Josip Broz,
Russian = trained Communist,
went to Moscow as head of the
army in Yugoslavia and there
signed a 20-year treaty of friend
ship between the two countries.
The official government of
Yugoslavia, at that time, was
the monarchy under the regen-
cy of young King Peter II. The
election which ousted the king
and set Tito up in power as
premier, minister of de-
tense, head of the army and vir-
tual dictator, was not held until
November, 1915.
Six months later, Tito return
ed tc Moscow to get mis- second
treaty Oily news about it was
some ballyhoo in the Moscow
press OF June II, 1916. nailing
the signlI g of the pact three
days before. According to the
Moscow lapers, this second
treaty provided that Soviet lius-
STA would rebuild 4goslavia's
war industries and equip
it's armies.
If these are the terms of the
second treaty and if they are be-
ing carried out, American Off
Gals see in them a precedent
for exactly what is being done
under the Truman plan to aid
Greece and Turkey. In that case,
Soviet Russia does not have a
leg to stand on in her .opposi-
ton to the Truman plan.
Only difference between the
two agreements is that the Tru-
man plan is all out in the open
500 million for military aid to
Turkey, $3.50 million for Greece.
How much Soviet Russia is pour
ing into Yugoslavia is kept Sc
cret in a covenant not openly
arrived at. 1t is this backing by
the might of Soviet Russia, how
ever, which makes Tito the bad
man of the Balkans.
There is no denying that vi
goslavia was ripe for a revolu-
ton when the war was over.

It Was To Be Expected


The abuse of diplomatic hospi-
tally by representatives of the
Soviet Union is hardly a novel
ty. 1t was revealed at its worst
when Canada discovered that Of
fetal Russian representatives
were deeply involved in espion-
age. And now comes word from
Santiago that the Chilean Gov
eminent has accused two Yugo-
slav diplomats of conspir atorial
conduct and expelled them from
the country.
That these two men the
charge d'affairs in Santiago and
the visiting secretary of
the Buenos Aires legation -
should have been acting for the
newly disclosed Communist
headquarters in Belgrade is not
surprising either. Nor can one
E startled on learning that they
are passing the word to South
American party-members to in
tenslfy abuse of the United
States, to attack the hemisphere
defense policy, and to develop
plans for sabotage.
We know by now how the Rus
slams play their game, and so it
Is necessary to take counter
measures - especially in South
America. There has been
a great increase in Communists
The Wilmington morning star., 1947-10-15

Its government under the regen-
cy was probably as bad as they
come. And the dominant, land
holding clergy, as in all back
ward countries, was no model of
social uplift. Tito was just the
boy to clean out this mess. but
he went to extremes.
He has an army and police
force that has been estimated
at 100000, with 1000 planes. His
government is quick to use this
force, including a dreaded Sc
cret police called the OZNA
modelled on the Russian NKVD,
to put down all opposition. The
poor peasants may not like their
new masters any better than the
old, but there isn't anything they
can do about it.
In his relations with the
United States, Tito has first
blown hot, then cold. At times
he has said he wanted friend
ship and cooperation. That was
when he wanted a loan or more
relief for his starving people.
Yet, when this was denied On
the ground that he sent 80. 900
tons of wheat to Albania last
year, he retaliated by making
trouble all over the Balkans.
All the while these extremely
annoying incidents have been
taking place, an effort has been
made to work out a settlement
of U. S.-Yugoslav fiscal affairs.
The U. S. government now
holds in New York some SAT mil
lion in gold belonging to the old
royal Yugoslav. government.
This, and 500 million more in
private funds of Yugoslav ma.
tionals, were blocked at the be-
ginning of the war. Tito natural
ly wants to get his hands on this
money. He has filed all sorts of
fantastic. claims against the US.
government, arising from the
war.
When Tito's government took
over, it nationalized all major
industries. Among American
properties seized were Standard
Oil facilities, the American-Yu-
goslav Electric Company, Corn
Products Refining properties,
and so on. Remuneration for this
must be worked out.
Also, the U. S. furnished Yugo-
slavia with $32 million lend
lease aid, certain "Plan A" re-
lief, given by the Army before
UNRRA. No recompense is ask
ed for the 1888 million U. S.
aid furnished through UNRRA,
but negotiation Of other claims
has been dragging on since last
May, with no settlement in sight.
