Dear .0111:
have been luformed that my nephew, Harry
Klein Arnold, who is a First Lieutenant or Oavalry, as-
signed to a Tank Destroyer outfit, has been wounded in
aotion. Apparently a jeep In his detachment, in which
he was riding, was blown up by a land mine.
My assumption is that ho was serving with our
Fifth Army just North of Naples, Italy8 when wounded.
Hie number is 04030324. He is in the 69th station Hospital.
My information is he was not picked up for three days.
He is the only child of my youngest sister, ana
naturally she is very much concerned about him.
Would it be asking too much for you to have an
inquiry made throu0 an appropriate channel and advise me
how badly ho is hurt, what his condition Is now, and any
other information about him that may be proper to pass on?
am leaving rur Chicago tomorrow, and will be
at the Blaokstone Hotel there until Wednesday, November
10th, and expect to reach Cincinnati, Ohio, on Friday,
November 12th, to spend a few days. My telephone number
there is Cincinnati Xast nnd my address #3 Observatory
11111, Hyde Part, Oincianati, Ohio.
I trust that you are well and enjoying lire, and
that I shaIl have the pleasure of seeing you soon.
Assuring you that I will appreeiate your courtesies
in the matter, with kind regards and best wishes, I remain

DATE: 14 December 1943
Returned herewith is copy of draft of letter you
sent to me during my absence at the end of last week.
I repeat what I said briefly 6o Colonel Doering at the
time the letter was received and said again to General Magruder
this morning, namely that I did not think this agency should
argue with a foreign gentleman in questions concerning the
suitability of our own personnel.
For Colonel Buxton's information, the Captain Kobel
referred to in the communication is regarded in the highest
terms by MIS as well as ourselves and in fact we have had to
make an arrangement with MIS to deliver him to Colonel Jadwin
at the end of February because Colonel jadwi.n says he can not
do without him.
The burden of the Yugoslav gentleman's complaint is that
not enough is being dome for the Partisans. This complaint was
registered with us a, good many days ago and prior to the recent
statement of Secretary Hall to the effect that we were rendering
!all possible aid to the Partisans in the way of supplies, and I
I( should think that the autho,. of the letter should have his
attention called to this statement of Mr. Hull's and should
be told that since this is the policy of the United States
Government as declared by the Secretary of State, there could
be no question whatsoever about OSS follardng it and that in
fact we are already doing so.

MEMORANDUM
TO: Robert Thrun
FROM: ;$ M. Scribner
4UBJE0TS Attashod Lotter to 109 from Yugoslav Minister,
dated 29 November 3.943
�
AP'
It is the policy of the Middle Mist Area Operations
Office of SO to recruit personnel for Yugoslavia who have no
political blam. Although this is a desirable objeotive,from
a practical standpoint, it is not always poseib1o, so that as
the next best expedient and as a matter of operating prIneiple,
an attempt has been made, where politleal bias exists, to at
least maintain an equal balance of personnel having 1)**1434mM...a
or Greater Yugoslavia inclinations.
The subject referred to in the attftehed memorandum is
one that has been brought to our attention several times before
and it is known to this �Mot that certain officer are very
close to the Yugoslav Minister in Washington, who, I am given
to understand, shares a different politioal viewpoint from that
enjoyed by the Minister in New York, whose letter in attached.
It is the writer's opinion it is not completely possible
to control this situations
I have investigated the record or Captain Kobel, who is
diroctly referred to by the Minister, and I can find no evidence
that he in aoting as the attached letter indicates. I have,
however, discussed the matter with Major Lincoln, Aeting Chle,
80, 4nd steps are being taken to the end that Captain Kobel will
14 advised that he should not at any time indulge in the type
of conversation referred to by the letter.
With respect to Major 8tepanovic, to whom the Minister
refers, I am informed that he is not in any way identified with
088 but is an officer working for G-2,
I hope these comments will be helpful in addressing a
proper reply to the Yugoslav Minist r t New wk.

Dear GenDral Donovan:
Although I have never had the opportunity
of meeting you personally, I hope that my name is familiar to
you in connection with a plan advanced by your office and with
which I have heartily agreed to cooperate. Attaching due sig-
nificance to that plan and wanting to see it realized to the
benefit of the democratic policies of the government of the
United Stntes and of the peaceful future of my own country,
Jugoslavia, I am writing this letter expressing some of my re-
cent worries.
These I want to keep in confidence and wish to convey them to
you personally.
Ban Subasic and I have without any doubt or reservation accepted
the plans and suggestions made by your office. I, on my part,
was and am willing to invest all that I possess in both political
credit and personal experience in promoting this scheme. The aim
of which was to be liberation of the Jugoslav people from foreign
oppression, the unification of the various national and political
elements and the democratization of the political life in the
future Jugoslavia. In order that this plan may succeed it is of
utmost significance that to the people of Jugoslavia, this action
be presented as coming from a country interested in their better
future. To the people of Jugoslavia thepolicy of the United States
of America must be presented as a policy of democracy, progress
and unification. Unless we are accepted in that confidence, our
plans, regardless of the perfection of details, are worthless.
The credit that America has among the people of Jugoslavia is
grent. It is great among large masses, and also great among those
leading the strugkle against the enemy, which today means the
Jugoslav Partisans, it would be harmful to do anything to endanger
or diminish that credit. Therefore, those representing America
and Auericen sponsored actions must do their best to maintain and
deepen that confidence an to show to the Jugoslays that Americans
are coming as liberntors and friends. This concerns any Anerican
representative, but in the first place the officers of Strategic
Services nnd those spot sored by them. The Jugosinvs must see in
them individuals friendly to them, indlvtdunls with sense of 1m-

SUBJECT: Sava Kosanovich
f7,rn:
DATE: 10 Sept 1943
14 Attached are a note from one of our re-
cruiters on Sava Kosanovich and a re )(art on this man
from SI. We have checked also with the Balkan Section
of Riga and they join with SI in giving Kosanovich a
glowing send-off.
2. MO would like to use Kosanovich not as J
member of the Staff but as a consultant on Yugoslav
affairs in Cairo and as a recruiting agent for us
in Cairo.
3, Because of the policy questions invok.ea
with a man of this stature, we are submitting it
first to you before prcceeding any further.
4. Kosanovich could probably Uo mare than
any one man to help us in our work Yugoslavia, but
we would have to handle him c,,refully becauw the
British there are more or less committed totWovern-
ment in Exile. However, we thing it coulu be so
arranged, so that there woulu be a Milani= nr trouble
in that ulrection so lon our relatioi,s 0,1th Kosano-
vich are kept on an ittfor,a1 �id unofficial basis.

Transfer of Private Eugene Wingman to the Map Division.
Below is the information on the case of Eugene Kingman
which seems to indicate that some action on your
part would be desirable:
On or about the 27th of April we filed a request
with Headquertels Company for the transfer of
Private Kingman immediately upon arrival at Camp Lee,
Virginia. Our request was in in plenty of time to
have the transfer request get to Camp Lee before
Private Kingman did. However, it seems that Private
Kingman was immediately transferred from Camp Lee
to a station at Miami Beach. Upon notification from
Kingman by wire we forwarded the new address to Head-
quarters immediately and placed a special request
that he be brought back as quickly as possible.
We have been checking continuously with the
Headquarters Company and have found that something
went wrong in the Adjutant General's office in the
handling of our transfer request. We were finally
notified at the end of last week that a completely
new request was being sent out for Kingman to the
Miami Beach station.
It has been well over the usual time necessary
to effect a transfer and tnbwing of your interest in
the case we thought you might like to send word to
Headquarters on this in order that we may have
Private Kingman at the earliest possible moment for
work on which we are behind.

OBS Operational Groups Personnel -
Captain Samuel C. ring and lst Lt. Carl F. Merlet.
1. The above named officers were formerly at Camp
Ritchie and while there their nervioes were requested by
Colonel Livermore.
2. Recently said dffieers were traneferred to the
Death Jumper Unit, Amphibious Training Base, Camp Bradford,
Norfolk, Virginia. Their Commanding Officer is a Nary Officer
who has objected to their transfer, although it is not believed
that either officer han any special qualifications *which would
make him particularly uaeful to thia Command.
3. I wonder if you would be good enough to write
a note to Admiral Kirk asking him if he would intercede.
4. The requent has already gone forward through
channel and it might, therefore, be advisable to telephone
Admiral Kirk asking for his ansistance an these officore will
be particularly valuable to ue becaupe of their experience in
working with language groups at Camp Ritchie and because in
one case, Lt. Monet, the officer speaks excellent French and
could easily be used on a :special miselon in connection with
which hie language qualifications would be important.
