OUTRAGE & MURDER
ATROCITIES IN YUGOSLAVIA
(By Telegraph—Press Association— Copyright) LONDON, June 28. Further details of Italian, Croat, and Hungarian atrocities against the Serbians are filtering through from Yugoslavia, says the Istanbul correspondent of “The Times.” Forty-five school girls from leading Ljubljana families were taken to a barracks and turned over to the Italian soldiers. A complaint to the Vatican only resulted in the dismissal of the Italian police commissioner. Croat Ustashis entered a church at Ogulin, in which a Serbian wedding was being celebrated, and took away the priest, bride, and bridegroom, whose bodies were found with nails driven into their feet. In Belgrade the occupation authorities have forbidden people to wash clothes or bathe in the Danube or Sava rivers because of the great number of mutilated bodies of Serbian men and women, killed by Hungarians, which have been thrown into the river and are floating downstream.
