JUGOSLAV PARTISANS
GREAT FEATS ACCOMPLISHED RUGBY, June 13.
Major Randolph Churchill, M.P., gave an interview to the Free Croat newspaper Naprijed (Forward) bgfore leaving Jugoslavia for Italy, states the Jugoslav Free Radio. Major Churchill said the Jugoslav partisans were better organised than he had expected. The Jugoslav Army under Marshal Tito had accomplished such feats that to-day it enjoyed a high standing, and the admiration of Britain and the United States. Everywhere he,went in Jugoslavia he saw destruction by the Germans, but he also saw a high fighting spirit and great enthusiasm for the cause of the Allies in the ranks of the Jugoslavs. Tito was not only a great military leader, he was also a great statesman. He had rallied to the partisan movement the most divergent elements of all nationalities and religions. Jugoslavia might well serve as a model to : the other countries of Europe for their reconstruction.
