Soviet Union|
To Recognize
Tito's Partisans
Allied Air Force Aid
Yugoslavs; SIovenia
Line Is Held Firm
By The Associated Press
LONDON, Dec. 12 (Sunday)-The
Turkish radio said in a broadcast
early today that the Soviet govern-
ment had decided to recognize Mar-
shal Josip Broz' (Tito's) Partisan
Yugoslav government as the legal
representative of that country instead
of King Peter's regime.
The broadcast recorded by the Bri-
tish Ministry of Information camne
amid increasing signs of British and
American aid to the Partisan leader,
already the recipient of the bulk of
Allied supplies going into Yugoslavia,
as against his rival, Gen. Draja Mi-
hailovic, War Minister under King
Peter's government.
Peasants Hold Line
Marshal Broz' peasant army, which
has breasted for a week the full shock
of a heavy German offensive, was re-
ported holding firm in the most im-
portant area of Slovenia athwart the
enemy's Fiume-Trieste supply head
Jn the upper Adriatic.
Meanwhile, a broadcast appeal
from Tito's headquarters urging all
Yugoslavs to leave enemy-held towns
and localities "as the Allied Air Force
is helping the operations of Yugo-
slav units" focused attention on the
slow but. steady rise of this Balkan
"third front" to a more conmlanding
place in the whole Allied grand war
scheme.
Continuous Support
(The British radio said today that
"during the past three weeks Allied
} air support for the Yugoslav Parti-
sans has been continuous" and re-
ported that "a Partisan leader at Al-
lied force headquarters has expressed
to the press his appreciation of Al-
lied support." The broadcast, record-
ed in New York by CBS, said that
"Allied liaison with Yugoslav forces
is maintained daily.")
Armenians To Meet
The Armenian Students Associa-
tion will hold a meeting today from
3 to 5 p.m. at the International
Center of the Michigan Union.
