The Commander of United States Naval Forces in the Eastern Mediterranean ( Bullard ) to Admiral W. S. Benson
Fiume
, December
29, 1918.
Adriatic 42. No meeting naval authorities today. Today officials visited outlying districts to question natives and lead men. Their testimony is there is no trouble with troops but they are not needed or [Page 344] desirable and should go away. No schools for children because school houses are needed to house soldiers. Some towns do not get food sent from Zagabria because Italians requisition it for their own use. No further report of complications along coast.
[Bullard]
