From: "Ivo Skoric" 

Two arguably most important independent media in Croatia face 
imminent danger this fall. On September 25 a trial resumes against 
editors of Split's satirical weekly Feral Tribune for slandering His 
Presidential Highness of Franjo Tudjman, and beginning December the 
temporary assigned frequency permit for Radio 101, the radio that was 
some times ago responsible for helping Tudjman get elected in the 
first place (Wall Street Journal, front page, July 25, 1996), is 
about to expire and, likely, not going to be extended. Anticipating 
this events and in response to this years crackdown on freedom in the 
press in Croatia, Neither East Nor West, based in New York, will call 
upon several freedom of speech, freedom of the press and human rights 
organizations, as well as likeminded people, to show up for 
demonstrations in frint of the Croatian consulate in New York city, 
preliminary scheduled for Friday, September 20.
