ish contingents were massed in
Greece.
Besides putting the torch to
Belgrade, it was reported in Ber
lin, nazi bombers also pounded
Sarajevo, Mostar, Ljubljana,
Kumbar and Podgorica.
Dispatches from Bern, Swit
zerland, quoted the Yugoslav
radio as saying that Yugoslav
artillery had opened fire along
the Albanian frontier, preparing
for an attack on Italian-held Al
bania. The Germans said Yugo
slavia's capital, Belgrade, had
been subjected to a fourth heavy
bombing attack during the night
and left aflame.
DNB, the official German
news agency, quoted the Bul
garian air command as saying
Yugoslavia bombers had attack
ed the open cities of Sofia and
Kustendel, Bulgarian, killing
several women and children.
Hitler's high command listed
'enemy" plane losses in the
opening day of the new conflict
at 102, including 35 bagged in
aerial combat.
Italy joined in the hostilities.
The fascist air force reported it
had bombed the Yugoslav naval
bases of Split (Spalato) and Cat-
taro, an arsenal and an air
base.
Turkey remained neutral as
German Panzer divisions storm
ed into neighboring Greece, but
the official Turkish radio de
clared Germany's given reasons
for attack "do not satisfy any
one." It Is apparent who brought
war to the Balkans," the radio
said, adding that German stra
tegy appeared to be aimed at
Yugoslavia's "waist" the im
portant rail Junction city of Nis
in the Vardar river valley in
the hope of slicing Yugoslavia
in two.
Soviet Russia, linked to Yugo
slavia by a newly-signed pact of
friendship and non-agression,
likewise remained calm, but the
newspaper Izvestia commented
that Yugoslavia's efforts to
secure peace "could not help but
arouse the sympathy of the
soviet union."

I MOSCOW. April 7 HP) The
soviet Russian press published
prominently but without com
ment today its first accounts of
the German declaration of war
against Yugoslavia, with whom
soviet Russia signed a friendship
and non-aggression pact on Sat
urday, and against Greece.
Pravda, communist party or
gan, devoted four columns at the
top of its foreign news page to
Tass, soviet official news agen
cy, dispatches from Berlin. Rome
and Athens on the start of hos-!
tilities.
The soviet-Yugoslav accord
was cited in Moscow newspapers
yesterday as "in the interests of ,
all people who aim to avoid the
expansion of war.
The pact, signed Saturday by
Premier - Foreign Commissar
Vyascheslaff Molotoff and the
Yugoslav Minister Milan Gavrio
lovic in the presence of Joseph
Stalin, provides for mutual re
spect for territorial integrity
and in the case of an attack on
either by a third power the
other promises continued friend
ly relations with the victim.
Tass said the pact firmly ad
hered to the Stalinist principle"
ot peace and quoted P ravda as trict with headquarters at Klnm
explaining that principle in ath Falls. Mr. and Mrs. Costcllo
these words: arrived over the week-end with
v.e stand lor peace and tne
strengthening of business rela
tions with all countries. That
is our position; and we shall ad
here to it as long as these coun
tries maintain like relations with
the soviet union and as long as
they make to attempt to trespass
on the interests of our country."
(The pact followed by less
than two weeks a soviet Russian
Turkish "benevolent neutrality"
understanding which was re
ported to provide for Russian
"material help" should Turkey
be attacked.).
