GERMANS ADMIT ACTIVITY.
FIGHTING IN MANY PLACES.
LONDON, July 30
Guerilla bands, led by popular chieftains, are embarrassing the Germans in Yugoslavia. The Official German News Agency says that Croat soldiers summoned to restore order are being threatened by Serb irregulars. The' Moscow radio stated that German official explanations cannot hide the fact that guerilla fighting in Yugoslavia lias grown to such an extent that the Italians cannot maintain order unaided.
Yugoslav guerilla chiefs, some of whom were formerly regular army officers, are becoming famous. Fighting has occurred in many places, and the Croats are just as active as the Serbs.
