War Reduces Nazi Gains in the Balkans
DANUBE BLOCKED BERLIN, April 29. The newspaper Frankfurter Zeitung says that the “unavoidable" war in the Balkans caused economic damage, not only in Yugoslavia and Greece, but also in Bulgaria and Hungary owing to the many calls of the army. / J Damage was also caused by the considerable destruction of railway and other traffic systems. The Danube bridge at Belgrade and the railway bridge at Neusatz were blown up, and parts of the bridge which fell in the Danube will block the river to traffic for la considerable period. Sabotage also has slowed down Yugoslav production. Yugoslav prisoners will be forced to repair the damage and work in industry and agriculture.
