He admires the Yugoslav, sol dier as "a fighting man" but sometimes finds sensitive mili tary officials a bit tryng to deal with ; - , A year 'ago this month Brig. Gen. Peter C. Hains took over as chief of the 7-man military as sistance staff here. He had just put iti a long stint as deputy di rector of the defense " depart ment's office of military assist ance in Washington. ; In an exclusive interview, the brisk, . cheery, gray-haired gen eral gave United Press some of the fruits of this year's close ob servation of military human na ture in Yugoslavia. He has found, he said, that the military aid job in this country is not what some might - think, just- a straightforward dealing with facts and figures, but rather one in which you have to take into account all sorts , of psychological e 1 e nve n t s for which the businesslike western military man may not always be prepared. : , ' , Jet Planes Hains said he found the Yugo slav people in general friendly and hospitable, "in many ways with responses just like those of Americans,'?? but? that 'when It comes to talking business with them a different element creeps in. Most military officials, he said. "are extremely proud, sensitive, and often apt to find, hidden meanings in the most innocent sentence, or to take, a joking re mark far too seriously." . Despite occasional obstacles arising from such misunder standings, or from ' characteris tics which :' might come from their Communist training or from some other source one can never be quite sure which," Hains said that "in helping to de velop ; their . armed services, I think there is no question but that we have accomplished - a great deal, particularly in the air service, which has developed very rapidly and effectively.". .

Hams said that during his tour in - Yugoslavia he has "noted a gradual improvement in joint co operation and a better under standing of the objectives of the American military assistance program." He hoped that "in the coming , year much greater pro gress m mutual understanding will be achieved." The money value of the ship ments has never been rovealed, but it is generally believed to to tal several hundred million dol lars, or slightly more than half of the total aid Yugoslavia has received in all forms from the United States since the first food shipments in 1950. : Hains explained that the gen eral basis of the military aid "is to provide only what they can not provide themselves." He said Yugoslavia has "made a fine start" at developing its own munitions industry, but that "it canont hope to develop ah industry which will support everything for example, it would -not De economical in the near future for them to establish production lines for heavy artillery." The American aid, therefore, is - based on the understanding that the Yugoslavs will "concen Alaska Will Be Scene of Greater Scientific Activity Fairbanks (U.R).
