NAVY-The Navy Department
is expected momentarily to issue

against supervisory and other

The new regulation is expected
merely to state that employees are
expected to do nothing that would
"embarass" them or their en-
ployer.
This means that supervisory
employees will have free reign in
union activities, except in those
instances which may arise occa-
sionally when Navy feels that the

He quoted Tito as saying any

Prof. Mather said Tito told the
Americans he is not forcing the
collectivization of farms. Tito
asserted, Prof. Mather said, that

land is state farmland, IS per

per cent privately owned.

Tito expressed the belief, the
professor said, that owners OF
farmland will follow a plan OF
collectivism voluntarily.
He added:

subservient and Tito thinks not
But more fundamental than their
personal differences is their
cleavage over Tito's conception OF
the decentralized state.
"In Yugoslavia there is as much
decentralization as possible. wsh

buro and its own set Of ministers
