BALKAN UNREST
REPORTED ATTEMPT TO KILL ANTONESCU.
SENTENCES ON COMMUNISTS
IN BOSNIA.
(By Telegraph—Press Association —Copyright) LONDON, October 12.
The Moscow radio quoted a report from Istanbul that 10 soldiers, including two members of the personal guard of the Rumanian Chief of State, General Antonescu, were arrested for an attempt to kill him. The Swiss radio says that a court martial at Travnik, Bosnia, imposed the death sentence on 24 Communists, but commuted 11 of the sentences to five years’ imprisonment. A Jew and a student were shot at Sarajevo for Communist propaganda. Rome reports that a man, when asked in a street in Zagreb for his identity card, drew a revolver and shot a policeman and wounded another policeman and a soldier, who pursued and finally killed him.
