By the Associated Press. ZAGREB, Jugoslavia, July 5.—Four years have gone by since the Croatian leader Stefan Raditch was mortally wounded during a debate in the Skup- schtina at Belgrade. The bitterness cost the lives of two other Croatian deputies, has not yet died down. It was the dream of King Alexander to create a united Jugoslavia in which Serbs, Croats, Slovenes and Montene- grins, Moslems, Christians and Jews, Greek Orthodox and Roman Catholic could forget old quarrels and work to- gether for the common good. But this merging of what used to be called the | “Kingdom of the Serbs, Croats and | Slovenes” into a highly centralized | Jugoslavia has never appealed to the Nationalist element here in Croatia. Demand Autonomy. “We Croats will not be satisfied with anything less than autonomy.” says Viadko Matchek, leader of the Croatian opposition since Raditch's death. “When we, after the collapse of the Austro-Hungarian empire, joined with the Serbs in & Serb-Croat-Slovene state.” he said, “it was with th> under- standing that we entered as a free peo- ple, not as a subject race. But we | learned to our sorrow that when a Serb speaks of national unity he means cen- | tralized Serb domination.” The Croatian demand for autonomy is not a demand for republican gov- ernment, Dr. Matchek emphasized, al- though, he added, “80 per cent of our people are republican in sympathy.” | “Whether we live under a republic | or & monarchy is not the all-important question for us Croats just now. All- important is autonomy. | Willing to Co-operate. “Likewise, though we should prefer not to have anything further to do | with the Serbs, we do not insist on that | We are willing to co-operate with the Serbs in & federal state in which slavia Resulting From ‘ aroused by this shooting, which also | Croatia controls her own treasury and | her own troops. “Unless we have our own troops any agreement is futile.

By the Associated Press. VIENNA, Austria, July 5.—Dispatches from Bucharest declare that 25 lepers from the isolation colony at Tichilesti tried to carry out a threat to “march on Bucharest,” and entered the town of Isaccea, spreading panic. The news of their arrival spread like wildfire through the town and the in- habitants barred their houses until military authorities transported the lepers back to their colony. ‘The marchers were clad in rags and almost dying from starvation, the re- ports said. They yelled for food, which was thrown to them from windows. Police were informed the colony had been without food or money for months. The only physician left for Bucharest 10 days ago to collect funds, but had not returned. On June 9 the 130 lepers at Tichi- lesti threatened a march on the capital unless better food was given them. The situation was said to have arisen because grocers, farmers and other tradesmen, long unpaid by the govern- | ment, hesitated to deliver further sup- plies to the colony. Isaccea actually is about 100 miles from Bucharest, so it is apparent the | lepers were corralled before they had | seriously threatened to filter into the | capital. | Four brothers, William, George, James and John Proctor, whése ages total 300 | years, held a reunion at Gisborough, | England, recently. | WILL HEAD PILGRIMAGE | Bishop Taitt to Lead Group on Visit to Japan.
