BY the Asseeiuied Pres.

The Yugoslav Embassy has
denied that Yugoslavia is hold
Ing as hostage a 2l-year-old
daughter of former Yugoslav
now doing secret work for the
United States Army.
Senator Kilgore. Democrat, of
West Virginia. said recently that
Andreja Glusic is being held
hostage to get her father back
to Communist Yugoslavia "for
execution purposes" The father,
Andrej Glusic. declined to dis
cuSs his daughter with reporters
who reached him at his Wash
ington home. He said he didn't
want to prejudice her chances of
getting out Of Yugoslavia.
The Y1goslav Embassy. in a
statement, took note of the re-
port and said:
Mrs. Glusic and her daughter
requested passports and exit
visas for the United States of
America from the Yugoslav
authorities. They obtained these
documents.
The YugoSlav authorities did
all that was necessary accord
ing to existing regulations to
enable Mrs. Glusic and her
daughter to leave YugoSlavia.
Consequently there has not been
anything whatsoever on the
YugoSlav side which would pre-
vent their leaving Yugoslavia for
the United States"
Senator Kilgore has introduced
legislation in the hope Of bring
ing the girl to this country for
