ports was due to a decrease in hog and beef marketings. Hog mar- ketihgs were only two-thirds of what they were a year ago. Beef marketings in the first quarter of were 44 per cent higher than in the corresponding period of 19M. but the marketings now were decreasing.

Another phase of the meat sup- ply problem facing the Govern- ment has arisen recently in some Ontario points. Packers in Tor- onto and other Ontario points have said that they were getting no hogs because the'bulk oi them were going to Quebec buyers who were paying prices higher than

those the Ontario buyers had agreed to pay. The Agricultural Department

source said that exports of can- ned meat. for the United Nations Rehabilitation Administration have increased, causing a further drain on meat supplies.

All stocks of canned meat were frozen last month when the Gov- ernment announced that its agencies would purchase the bulk oi available and future stocks for the anned forces and the people oi liberated Europe.

B ALEX SINGLETON

LON ON June 2i (AP) Marshal to‘s Yugoslav Govern- ment charged formally today that young Yugoslav girls, men and women were stripped and then driven with hands bound to their places of execution by Axis war criminals.

A ail-page report by Dr. Radomir Zivkovic, Yugoslav representative on the United Nations War Crimes Commission, said Yugoslavia had finished investigations of "Fascist crimes." Between and 300 names are being added daily to the war criminals list, the report added.

The report contended that "high

priority" Italian war criminals had not been arrested. but in fact were ir. state positions in Italy, and asserted: "This dlllyl-dallying causes grave disquiet in ‘ugoslavia. and is des- tructive oi lnter-Allied confid- ence."

1 1).. J.A- MacMillan Tells Of Rapid Growth Of Blue Cross Plan In Maritimes-

Over 102.000 persons in the Mari- times are subscribers to the Blue Cross plan, Dr. J. A. MacMillan, president oi the Maritime Blue Cross Association, told the dele- gates of the Association yesterday afternoon at their meeting in the Prince oi Wales College auditorium.

Subscribers are joining, Dr. Mac-

illan said, at the rate of 5.500 a month. Last year the Association paid the hospitals oi the Maritime; over $182,000 for the care and |treatment oi Blue Cross patients.

One out of every 9.8 subscrib- ers to the Plan in the Maritimes enters a hospital for treatment every year and the average stay is 7.0 days. Dr. Mac-Millan stated.

i Evidence of the manner in which ithe Blue Cross plan is taking hold 'in the Maritimes was revealed by Dr MacMilian when he said that 85 er cent oi the population of Ant gonish are subscribers i.o the plan: 40 per cent of Campbelltons people: 28 per cent oi Si. John's; and 2'7 per cent of Charlotietowns 15.000 persons.

i The primary purpose oi the |p1an is not, that of money making, but solely to give medical service |to those who. under ordinary con- jditicns. are unable to pay, Dr. MacMillan said.
