Abstract

This paper gives a brief overview of political actions of Ivo Franić Požežanin, director of the Ethnographic Museum in Zagreb (1935-1939), mainly based on the letter that Ivo Franić Požežanin sent to the president of the Yugoslav government Milan Stojadinović.
The letter was written near the end of 1937. In it Ivo Franić Požežanin presents his view of the political situation in Zagreb, Croatia, and as a supporter and member of the Yugoslav Radical Community (JRZ) suggests some moves to Stojadinović. From the letter it is evident that Ivo Franić Požežanin is a strong opponent of the HSS and the Croatian national movement, and suggests that the Croatian issue be resolved as a “’ Egg of Columbus “.
