MEMORANDUM FOR THE PRESIDENT
Subject: Current Foreim Develonments
Complications Still Arising in Venezia Giulia.
General Morgan has submitted to SAC his draft agreement
with the Yugoslavs on militery details for Venezia
Giulia. Kirk considers this draft unsatiafactory in
several respects. It gives the Yugoslav command the
same powers of control resorved to SAC, gives the
Yugoslavs *war booty* without clearly defining the term,
permits the Yugoslavs to issue similar identity cards
to those SAC will issue which would in effect allow
them to create de frote Yugoslav citizens, and uses
severel joint terms, like "Joint Economic Agency", to
dignify what are purely local arrangements.
The Yugoslavs are also trying to get SAC to recog-
nise the Yucoslav Committee of Liberation in his erea
and to substitute Yugoslav-committees for Italian offi-
ciale in many places there, "as Marshal Tito has strong
views on this matter." Yugoslava withdrawing from this
area have increased their arrests and looting and Yugo-
slav officials while ostensibly cooperative are actually
being a great nuisance. On June 12 AMG began distributing
food and on June 14 increased the daily bread ration from
150 to 200 grams.
