1. A factory denominated the "Spezialna Cemento" (Special Cement Factory)
covers the entire extent of Sveti Petar Island in the Port of Pulj, and 25X1
occupies buildings formerly owned by the Italians. A certain Pavikievac
and an engineer by the name of Kristulovic have been identified respectively
as the director and deputy director of the factory. Approximately 22
clerical employees and some 1400 workers, who are assigned to three different
work shifts, are attached to the cement factory.
2. Ordinary cement is now being produced at the "Spezialna Cernento" by means
of a time-and labor-saving system. In order to produce ordinary cement,
pulverized layers of gravel and cinders are drawn into "Gruber" furnaces
by means of suction. During the process, smoke highly impregnated with
cement powder, issues from the chimneys of the "-Gruber" furnaces. Suction
devices have been rigged to the chimneys. These suction devices exert
intense pressure on the smoke, drawing the smoke out of the furnaces by
means of centrifugal forces into a cylindrical cement silo, at the top of
which there is an opening. As the smoke is forced out of this opening, it
leaves particles of cement deposited on the sides of the silo. This system,
which has been developed and activated by Engineer Kristulovic, permits the
recovery of some two tons of cement a day.
3. The factory is equipped with four furnaces for the production of quick-
setting cement, only one of which is in operation at the present time, owing
to the fact that the press used in the preparation of pressed bauxite blocks
and also essential in the production of cement, is capable of supplying only
one furnace. A second press, which will permit the operation of an
additional furnace, has been ordered from abroad and is expected to arrive
at the plant in the near future.
14. The electric power station of the cement factory at the present time produces
from 100 to 500 kilowatts generated by a single turbine in very poor condition.

A small building, now in' the process of construction, will house a steam
boiler which will turn an old turbine. This turbine has been in the plant
for an unspecified number of years. 'When the construction of the power
station is completed, it will be capable of supplying 1,300 kilowatts.
At the present time a double-gauge track for a travelling crane is now
being extended, while two old furnaces, which were part of the old
buildings, have been scrapped.
~. The cement which is produced in the " e alna Cemento" is destined for
exportatio Altogether-some 220-250 tons 25X1
of cement are produced daily at the factory; 100 tons of this are of ordinary
cement produced by the "Gruber" furnaces; 80 to 100 tons of ordin~cement
produced in rotating furnaces; while 40 tons of the total prods ctioi per day
are of quick-setting cement. Since the month of April 1951, the factory
management has complained about the scarcity of 50-kilogram paper.sacks
in which the finished cement is packed. An experimental shipment of loose
cement in closed box cars has proved unsuccessful. Gravel needed for the
production of cement is obtained from quarries located at the base of
the mountain on which Fort Massimiliano, Pulj, an old abandoned fortress,
is to be found.

2. products of the factory are canned fish preserved in oil, and salted fish
in barrels, including tuna, mackerel, and sardines. Fresh fish is caught
in the Adriatic Sea and supplied to the factory through fishermen's
cooperatives in quantities varying from 30 to 300 quintals per day, during
new-moon periods. The maximum daily processing capacity amounts to
approximately 40 quintals of canned fish in oil, and approximately 100
quintals of fish preserved in salt for winter reserves. The latter is surplus
fish which cannot be canned in oil during the fishing season, and is salted
and preserved in barrels tobe used in the winter when fishing is at a
standstill, to prepare and can fillets, anchovies, and the-like.
3. The tins used in canning are supplied by the canning factory in Labin, while

envisaged the training of a large number of engineers. With
this aim in mind, beginning in 1947, the Ministry of Public
Education, under the jurisdiction of the Federal Government,
advised students who had graduated from intermediate school
to enroll in one of the State Technical Schools for training
as technicians. One of these State Technical Schools is
located in Ljubljana (Slovenia).
The Drzavna Tehnlska Skola (State Technical School) in Ljubljana, for the training
of technicians, is located on Askerceva Street. The 200 students enrolled at the
school are deferred from military service for two years. The school offers a non-
expense three-year technical course for students who are granted an allowance of
1,500 dinars monthly for the first two years and 1,200 dinars monthly for the
third year of the course.
2. The curriculum at the State Technical School in Ljubljana includes courses in the
following subjects:
a. Slovene language;
b. Russian lan gcua ge;
c. Technology (pertaining to metals);
d. Cnn.,E ~-yor systerff (,pertaining to all types of cranes);
c., Steam engines;
f. Combustion engi:?:

5. Luring the years immediately following the war, the Government encouraged
university attendance in order to fill gaps in the various proleasiona.l
fields, particularly in the field of economics. Of recent years however,
it has been necessary to reduce the attendance, because of the heavy
burden on the budget created by the numerous people receiving doctors'
degrees. While the enrollment of university students prior to the war
amounted to 15,000, the-current number enrolled is listed as over 50,000.
The republican government fixes the quota of students to.be admitted to
each faculty. Students of favorable political standing are given the
opportunity to choose their profession, whereas others, in most cases,
are obliged to pursue studies in the field to which they have been assigned.
Exception is, however, given to those students who volunteer to join the
armed forces after obtaining-their diplomasa Apart from registration
fees, there are no tuition fees in Yugoslavia.
6. The impartial attitude of a large part of university professors, minimizes
the necessity that a student be an orthodox Communist in order to obtain a
degree. This at least is the case at the University of Zagreb. Profesgors
of this University may easily.be'divided into three categories., professors
who are decidedly Communist and promote students on purely political grounds;
professors who are decidedly anti-Communist (in general scholars and scien-
tists of renown), and promote only qualified students; and insecure professors,
whooalthough not really in favor of Communism, will overlook the lack of
preparation on the part of students, for fear of falling into disfavor.
7. Students of all faculties mist attend courses on Marx and Lenin, and receive
premilitary instruction with obligatory group discussions and examinations.
Students who have previously had military training, or who have volunteered
to join the armed forces after completing their studies, are exempt. The
course on Marx and Lenin covers four hours a week, two hours being devoted
to Instruction, and two to class discussion. Prem,ilitary instruction is
given twice a month in four-hour stretches. Specific phases of the course
depend upon the student's field of study. Students at the faculty of natural
science and mathematics take artillery instruction, while those attending
the faculty of chemistry are instructed in chemical warfare.
8. Al? students must take part in voluntary labor projects for two months during
the summer vacation. These projects are generally out of to, although in
the course of the academic year, students.are also engaged at irregular
intervals on projects in the city. Foreign students are also obliged to
take part in these activities, but they are given lighter work, and are
favored with regard to food and lodgings!.
9. All university students must be members of the Narodna Studentska Omladina
(National Student Youth) group. Membership fees amount to ten dinars a
month. The organization gives periodic political lectures delivered by
Party members. Regulations on attendance were so strict until 1950, that
a certain number of students were expelled from further studies because
of absence. Currently, however, it is said that numerous students are 25X1
continuously absent from 'these lectures, and no drastic measures are taken
against them.
