Against the will of the Croatian naâ€" tion and in violation of the legal and moral obligations which she has acâ€" cepted with relation to the Great Westâ€" etn Powers on the one hand and towards the Croatian â€" nation on the other, Serbia has imposed her doâ€" mination upon Croatia and the Croaâ€" tian nation and continutes to exploit her without even observing the laws’ | which she herself has arbitrarily deâ€" | creed. m mm en en it ie ie ie ue ce mm in . matsins 24 m This is not all.

The delegaâ€" tion which has just represented Yugoâ€" slavia before the Council of the League cf Nations in the course of the session of December 1934 was composed of two delegates (MM. Yevtitch and Foâ€" titch), two substitute delegates (MM. Martinats and Stevovitch), two secreâ€" taries (MM. Soykovitch and Markoâ€" vitch) and a representative of the Govâ€" ernment Press Bureau (M.

It is | accordingly given herewith: Memorandum Addressed to the Council of the League of Nations by Dr. , Y. Krnyevitch Croat Deputy and Secretaryâ€"General of the Croatian Peasants‘ Party. (Croatian political organization, to | which the Croatian Nation has confidâ€" ed, by an enormous majority, its reâ€" presentation in all parliamentary elecâ€" tions since the formation of Yugoslavia) i Gentlemen:â€"During the recent sesâ€" , sion of the Council of the League of Naâ€" tions, mention was made on several occasions of the Croatian question, and, in connection therewith, the present circumstances in Yugoslavia. The manner in which these questions were alluded to was full of generalities, so. that an erroneous conception might thereby have been created of the conâ€" ditions under which the Croatian naâ€" tion is living. Dr. Benes, the Minister for Foreign Affairs of Czechoslovakia, even went so far as to justify the situaâ€" tion in Yugoslavia as "an historic fatalâ€" ity‘" and "a destiny ordained by inescapâ€" able and irresistible natural forces," adding that Serbia possessed a "perfect right" to act as she had acted. Such allegations, made before the Council of the League of Nations, are extremely dangerous.

In spite of this, Tomich reâ€" mains Commandant of the Post of Genâ€" darmerie cf Brod. But he is not alone in his activities; there are many such I will read to you what a professor has written to me: "On 28th, on my way. home, I passed near the barracks at Donji Andrijevcei, where I enccuntered a patrol of gendarmes. They askeq me from where I had come. Upon receiving my reply that I hal 'J’usn come from an interrogation, folâ€" lowing a complaint from them, by the prefect of the district, Sergeant Skundâ€" ritch struck me on the left temple with his clenched fist, saying: "As the preâ€" fect of the district has not been seen fit to punsh you, it is up to me to do it." The gendarmes thereup2n dragged m into barracks. One of them thrashed me with a cowhide whip, another with a truncheon, third pulled my hair violently, whilst Sergeant Skundritch struck me about the head, at the same time showering insults upon my Croat mother . . . Finally, Skundritch allowâ€" ed me to go ..." It is the same in the district of Kutina, when the genâ€" darmes, acting in concert with the subâ€" prefect, Ivancitch,, have fbeaten our former colleague, Stjepan Urcitch, and his son with ropes upon the soles of their feet. Allow me to read to you the complaint laid befcre the court uy Stjepan Uroitch: ". . . They made me take off my shces and sit down on a bench with my feet held up, the genâ€" darmes subjecting me to innumerable strokes with a rope upon the bare soleés. Immediately afterwards.

Perâ€" haps I may be permitted to emphasize just those cases which are more tharâ€" acteristic and which are going on now, at the moment when Farliament is sitâ€" ting.. In the district of Slavonski Brod, the : gendarmes have not been content with merely beating the population, but have prevyed upon their most intimate sentiments. Those among them who have passed through the hands of Lieuâ€" tenant Stojanovitch or Sergeant Tomâ€" far that concerts given by Croatian choral societies, for example, are only granted police authorization on condiâ€" tion that the army chiefs stationed in Zagreb receive invitations to attend. In each village, the gendarme is allâ€" powerful. In order to show the abuse of the Croatian countries, I will quoteâ€" from the official Minutesâ€"the speech delivered by Dr. Nikola Nikitch in the dictatorship legislative body of Belâ€" grade. in the course of the budgetary dejates during the past year. Dr. Nikâ€" itch stated:â€""But the most disgarceful chapter of our internal politics is that concerning the brutalities and beatings by the gendarmers, which brutalities and beatings have become an integral part of the administrative system . . . We have protested against these vioâ€" lences; we have put down interpelliaâ€" tions during some two years; we have lodged complaints. And not only have we réceived no replies to our interpelâ€" lations, but the persons of whom we Yugoslavia has been subjected, for the past,. six years, to a regime Oof a Royal Dictatorship. But Croatia has not been subjected merely to a Dictator. Every Serb of Serbia who wields power in the Croatian countries hold himself{ to be an absolute master in his sphere of activity. Thus, the Army Chief and Garrison Commander of Zagreb exercise their unlimited powâ€" er. Their interference, not only in the public life, but also in the private conâ€" cerns of the citizens of Zagreb gogs so I am of the same opinion as Dr. Benes, that the situation cf the small and mediumâ€"sized nations of Central Europe was very grave in the epoch before the war. The Croats themselves were also engaged in a struggle for the abolition of oppression. But the forâ€" mer Oppression was not supressed simâ€" ply in order to be replaced by another, far more brutal. Croatia and the Croaâ€" tian naticn will never accept the doâ€" mination of Serbia, and, still less, the regime of illegality, of oppression and of exploitation which is at present beâ€" ing imposed upon them.

But the forâ€"| progress at the time. There must be mer Oppression was not supressed simâ€" | nOne of this in future. According to the Peace Treaty, the Croatian nation is not â€"a minority in the community of the Serbs, Croats and Slovenes, but cne of its constituent elements. The Croats are novertheless deprived of the primO@rdial rights reâ€" cognizeq even to the national minoriâ€" ties living in the Succession States of{ the former Austroâ€"Hungarian Empire. For example, the Germans and Hunâ€" garians of Czechoâ€"Slcvakia and Rouâ€" mania have the right to Crganize themâ€" selves into German .aqd Hungarian political parties. But Croats in a State community of which they form a conâ€" stituent part, find themselves prohibitâ€" ed by law from forming a Croatian political party and are thus unable to defend themselves legally against the abuse which I have just mentioned. Furthermore, the Croation flag is banâ€" ned, the schoo‘ls are Serbianized, etc. _ In order to illustrate the manner in which the financial authorities treai Croatia, I will quote the interpeliation developed before the legislative bodv of Belgrade by Dr. Ljudevit Auer. He stated:â€""The â€" forestry community of Kratecko possesses 123 hectares of land, upon which it pays, in respect rates 65.76 dinars per hectareâ€"a total ol 8,098 dinars, The revenue from these {fcrestâ€"lands amounting to 7,390 dinars, it will be seen that taxation in this case amounts to 109 p.c. on revenue. The forestry community of Palanjak holds 2,986 hectares of forestâ€"land. with annual taxation of 60.20 dinars per hectareâ€"that is to say, an aggregate of 167,643 dinars. As the revenue accruâ€" ing comes to exactly the same sum. i will be seen that taxation leaves noâ€" thing as a return for the community. The forestry community of Martinska Ves possesses 927 hectares of forestâ€" land, upon which it pays annually 66 dinars per hectarseâ€"a total of 61,501 diâ€" ars. Annual revenue reaches 55,620 dinars, so that taxaticn amounts in 110 p.c. on revenues. These cases are not only to be found in the district of Sisak; it is the same in other districs of Croatia. Since 1929, the State tax has tripled in comparison with 1928. The value of the timber produced fromi these fcrestâ€"lands is six times less than it was in 1928. In consequence, the public taxes levied on these communi-‘ ties are some 20 to 28 times heavier| than they were in 1928." | withdrew. and the scene was rep We issue this invitation in plenty of time because we are anxious that our customers, who know the value of Berger "CLOTHES OF QUALITX " Brand, have the benefit of head office representative‘s advice as to styles, colors and woollens.
