Partisan Activity Fe Repatriation of i Peasants. ra

By PAUL GHALI Times Foreign Correspondent y BERN, April 14.—Following the ° aggravation of the internal situation = in Croatia, the reich authorities = have decided to repatriate the Ger-

man minority living in that state, according to a Zagreb dispatch to the Essener National Zeitung. The reason prompting this “decision” is the communist and partisan activity which pillages and fires German peasants’ homes and even assassinates. The Zeitung correspondent says that the transfer is being carried out when possible by train but most often by carts, undet the protection of troops and reich police. : 3 There has been specially created an organization for transferring the population and regrouping the refugees in various camps. Their future destination is not indicated
