Yugos|avia S Envoy
Returns 10 Belgrade
For West Trade Talk
ey the Assoeioted Press

BELGRADE, Yugoslavia. July 8.
-Sava Kosanovic, Yugoslavla' s
Ambassador to Washington. ar
rived today for talks believed CEN
tered on Premier Marshal Tito's
desire for increased trade with
the West.
Yugoslavia is seeking quarter
of a billion dollars in loans from
the international Bank of Recon-
struction and private American
banks. This one-time Soviet
satellite has been hard hit by an
Eastern economic blockade grow
ing out of Tito's row with the
Kremlin.
Without advance public notice,
Mr.. Kosanovic slipped quietly into
Belgrade and then left for the
week end-presumably for talks
with the Yugoslav Premier on
trade relations with the United
States.
AS late as yesterday Tito, along
with Foreign Minister Edward
Kardelj and Deputy Foreign Min
lister Ales Bebler, was reported
on the picturesque Adriatic island
of Brioni.
The International Bank, in
which the United States has a
major voice because it is the
biggest contributor. is expected to
send a delegation here soon. The
mission will investigate Yugo-
slavia's immediate and long range
needs for developing its economy
and methods of repaying the pro-
posed loans.
Yugoslavia is seeking loans total
ing about 5000 100000 from the
International Bank over a period
of five years. Responsible diplo-
mats here believe Yugoslavia even
tually will get a loan but for an
amount considerably under the
request-more likely in the neigh
borhood of $50,000.000.
In addition to the World Bank
loan. Tito is seeking at least two
other loans totaling about $50, ,000.-
900 from private American banks
The need for immediate credits is
also reflected in current negotia-
tions here on a British -Yugoslav
trade pact nearing completion.
Cut off from supplies from Rus
sia and the satellite countries
Yugoslavia is turning to the West
for such goods as:
Machinery for mining coal. iron
and rich nonferrous metals; plant
equipment, particularly for steel
production, needed to carry out
Tito's five-year plan: timber cut
ting equipment, farm machinery
and transportation and road build
ing equipment.

K|an, Police Brutes
Teach Violence, Not
Reds, Davis Asserts
BY the Associotsd Press

NEW YORK, July 9.-One of
America top Communists says It's
not the Communists who preach
violence-it's the "Ku Klux Klan
lynchers and police brutes.'
This statement by Benjamin
Davis, jr.. Negro member Of the
New York City Council, was in the
record today in the conspiracy trial
of Davis and 10 other Communist
Party officials.
Testifying yesterday before the
trial recessed for the week end,
Davis said the Government ac-
cusation against the IL Is pure,
slanderous. Hitlerian distortion" "
This charge usually comes
from Fascist sources to hide the
real sources of force and violence,
such as the Ku Klux Klan lynch
ers and police brutes," Davis de-
clared.
All IL of the Communist Ma
tional Board members are charged
with conspiring to advocate vio-
lent overthrow of the Government.
Davis is the third defendant to
testify for the defense.
His manner on the stand has
been quiet in contrast with the ex-
cited behavior that got two pre-
vious defense witnesses jailed for
contempt of court.
But Federal Judge Harold r.
Medina cautioned Davis sharply
against referring to matter that
had been excluded from the trial.
You look at me and smile and
then go right ahead and do just
what I told you not to do" the
Judge said. II hope you will not
do it again.
Davis described the charge
against him as zone OF the
strangest things"
ITO tell me, as a Negro. that I
practiced force and violence
something I have been bounded
by all my life-it just doesn't
make sense" he said.

Russian Submarines
May Total 300 Graft,
Navy Tells Congress
Nv the Associated Press

Secret testimony JnaI RUSSIA
has a fleet of $50 to 300 ultra
modern submarines was disclosed
by Congress yesterday.
AS result, top Navy officials
testified, the United States Navy
have given No. priority to anti
submarine warfare preparedness.
Admiral Denfeld. Chief Of
Naval Operations, cited Russia's
potent underseas striking power
in guarded testimony before a
Senate Appropriations Committee
some time ago. 1t was released
yesterday.
At the same hearings Secretary
of Defense johnson told the Sena-
tors:
I'VE do not expect war. but . . 8
there can be no real guarantee Of
peace today or in the foreseeable
future. We must, therefore, con-
tinue to maintain substantial mil
itary forces
Without mentioning Russia by
name, Senator McCarran, Demo-
crat, of Nevada asked Admiral
Denfeld about published reports
that "a certain nation" now has
much advanced submarines and
that it is a matter in which we
are somewhat behind"
Denies Trailing Other Nations.
Admiral Denfeld challenged
such a statement. He said the
Navy and other American armed
forces are ahead of other coun-
tries in the world"
But, he said:
I'VE have not yet obtained the
complete answer to this new type
of submarine"
The testimony indicated that by
new type Of submarine" Admiral
Denfeld referred to the German
wartime development of far-rang-
ing submarines equipped with a
special 'snorkel" underwater
breathing apparatus which en-
abled them to remain submerged
for long periods.
The Russians took over some of
the German U-boats when they
captured German ports.
Naval officers testified on Cap
itol Hill that the United States
also has the new type German
submarines and has improved
upon them.
Regarded as major Mission
Admiral Denfeld told the Sen
ate committee:
I'VE are paying a great deal
of attention in the Navy to anti
submarine warfare. We figure 1t
is one of our major missions and
one of our most important mis-
sions.
"At the beginning Of both the
First and Second World Wars,
the Germans started with about
so submarines and the Russians
have between $50 and 800 now.
So they realize the Importance
of It,"
Both Admiral Denfeld and Sec
retary of the Navy Matthews told
the Senate committee that cut
backs in Navy funds for the cur
rent fiscal year would reduce the
Navy's striking power"
Mr.. Matthews, in his first ap-
pearance before a congressional
committee, asked the Senate to
restore $11.000.000 of contract
authority cut out by the House
when it passed a defense bill car
rying nearly $4,000, 100000 cash
and contract authority. ls'17s.'- 's
