Spasoje Lozikovich. who is making his home in this county, was th? speaker Tuesday night at the meeting of the Beaufort Ro tary Club at the Inlet Inn. He was introduced by Mrs. H. D. MacFarla^e, Gloucester. The speaker told of communism in his homeland, stating that the i majority of the people weren't j members of the Communist party | but had to abide by party policy ! in order to exist. He commented that Radio Free Europe was not reaching many of ! his people since they couldn't af- 1 ford to purchase radios. He said | that prior to World War II a radio in Yugoslavia cost about $14 to $20 and now one would cost about $280 to $350 As for clothing, he remarked j that a man's suit, which cost about j $21 to $30 before the war, now costs between $140 and $200. If a person in his country werej found to have democratic leanings, the government took 'away that persons ration cards, the speaker declared. As for food packages sent to Yugoslavia, it was mentioned that those sent to individuals probably got through, but those that went through organizations usually wound up in the possession of the Communists. People who believe that pack ages have been sent them, inquire for them and are told that they may have a package but to return in two or three weeks, the speaker said. This time-lapse enables the au thorities to check up on the "alle giance" of the person to whom the package is addressed. Colonel Lozikovich was captured by the Germans early in the sec ond World War. He spent several years in a German prison camp, where he learned to read and write English. He was in a camp for dis placed persons, following the war, for four years because he could not return to his homeland.
