Army officers have seen their patrols—allegedly on their own side of the Morgan line—fired on by Yugoslav patrols. Officers who have wandered across the line mistakenly, while on obviously innocent missions, have been held and intensively questioned by the Yugoslavs for days. The shooting down of two American transport planes and the death of five American airmen is inexcusable in the eyes of U. 8. military men here, The Italian government some months ago issued a decree of amnesty freeing hundreds of political prisoners, including ex-Fascists.

But the A. M. G. refused to exsuch amnesty in Venezia Giulia. Some 80 political prisoners remain jailed here, ; Officially there has been no explanation of the A. M. G. refusal of amnesty. Actually, it is because A. M. G. officials are reluctant to give the Yugoslavs ammunition for any more attacks on them. They are afraid to chance the raising of a hue and cry by Yugoslav press and agents against the A. M. G. for “freeing the Fascists who tortured us.” Petty Scenes Repeated But, on the other hand, every day many petty, provocative scenes are repeated, such as one that took place in a publie restaurant in Tribster 2 An American Junior officer, feeling his oats—and maybe a little rye—was badgering the waiter, Raising his arm in a mock Fascist salute, the officer roared, “Musso: lin'l Good, huh?

IPIGARS CONTROL FROG LEG PRICE :

Sounds Crazy, but That's| , Situation in Cuba.

By Science Service HAVANA, Cuba, Sept. 12.—If you like to eat frog legs, don't buy any expensive Cuban cigars. The number of frog legs for American eating is partly determined by the price of tobacco in Cuba. It works this way: When tobacco prices are low, both growers and workers turn to frog hunting for added income; when Cuba's tobacco industry is thriving, less attention is paid to the frogs. : But even with prosperous tobacco prices, Joseph L., Martinez, foreign service clerk at the U, 8. embassy here has reported to the commerce department that a plentiful supply of frogs may mean a big increase in Cuba's frog legs exports to American tables. - Number Reduced by Drought Only eight years old, Cuba's legs business with: the U, 8. reached a recbrd high of 381457 pounds in 1941 and last year is estimated to have been more than 300,000 pounds. The Cuban ministry of agriculture. believes that the island now has sufficient frogs to send 500,000 pounds to Americans each ear.

packing stations’ for the frogs. But

there are no commercial breeding

| ponds because of the feeding probe fo lem. Frogs eat live animal food, chiefly ‘shrimps and. minnows in Cuba, and when these are nat available, the frogs turn cannibals and {eat other frogs. A drought follqw{ing the hurricane of 1944 reduced the numbers of the frogs, but breeding is now reported back to normal. Frog skins, formerly wasted, may become another important Cuban product, with a New York firm reported to be planning to manufacture handbag fittings, parts of women's shoes and other items from the skins.

P).— Former Air Chief Marshal Lord Dowding who headed thé Royal Air Force fighter command during the battle of Britain revealed tonight that RAF losses were so heavy that pilots from the bomber command, coastal command and the fleet alr arm had to be diverted to ald in fighting off the Luftwaffe. The disclosure was made in a dispatch by Lord Dowding. Lord Dowding's dispatch covered the period from July to. October, 1940, when he directed the fighter command.
