Summary/Abstract: The paper is based on reports of the U.S. special representative on duty in Central Europe, Arthur Wood DuBois, on Slovenia and Croatia from December 1919 and May 1920. During his two visits, DuBois made four reports from the Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes that specifically viewed the situation on Slovenian and Croatian territory, where his interlocutors were leading officials in the Provincial Governments in Ljubljana and Zagreb. His visits took place during two different and politically opposed governments, so DuBois had the opportunity to hear representatives of two political options, the centralists and the federalists. The emphasis of the paper is placed on DuBois’ account of difficulties in foreign policy relations of the Kingdom of SCS and Austria, communist activity, and differences in the political and national characteristics of Slovenes, Croats and Serbs.
