The Yugoslav Government-in-Exile yesterday repudiated all the anti-Semitic measures adopted by pre-war regimes and pledged that such legislation will be barred in post-war Yugoslavia.
The Yugoslav pledge was made in a letter sent to the World Jewish Congress by Prime Minister Slobodan Yovanovitch, in which these measures were described as “contrary to the liberal traditions of our country.”
