New York Scent Fare
Ends After "A Years
Ry the As,oeiu,sd Prsss


NEW YORK, July 1.-More than
a million New Yor1ers 11ustling to
work on the city's complex trans
portation system fumbled for dimes
instead Of nickels in the morning
rush hour today.
The end of the 44-year-old, s.
cent fare. effective last midnight
was accomplished smoothly. the
Board Of Transportation said.
But many a subway and bus
straphanger was confused.
Riders who forgot to have a dime
ready formed long lines at subway
change booths. Many passengers
transferring from rapid transit to
city operated bus routes forgot to
get transfers at the beginning OF
their trips. They had to pay addi-
tional fares.
Other riders on private bus lines
put Z cents instead Of nickel fares
in coin boxes. Fares on city-oper-
ated buses went to 7 cents, though
most private companies retain the
scent fare. Pennies registered as
dimes in privately-operated buses,
snarling drivers fare records.
The changeover was met by some
grumbling-and a great deal Of
stolid indifference.
The fare rise was prompted by
prospects of q So, ,000, 900 deficit this

Tito Hailed by YugosIavs

LONDON, July CP.-Yugoslavs

| Youth brigades cried, Tito, Tito, !"
when the marshal showed up in
Belgrade to inspect their construc-
tion job. Tito, who stayed two
hours, had high-ranking Commu-
nists and army officers In tow.
Tito's public appearance yester-
day was the first in more than two
weeks. Where he had been was an
oficial secret. But the most reliable
information in Belgrade last night
was that it was somewhere on the
! Dalmatian coast.
Since the Cominform blast, he
had been reported In Moscow, in
Belgrade, on an Adriatic island and
in his summer capital of Bled-de-
pending on the source.
Plainly he still had the support
of Yugoslav Communists. His in
specting party included Gen. Alex

Gen. Koca Popovic, army chief Of
staff, and Vladimir Bakario, presi-
dent of the Crotian Peoples Re-

Duclos Scores YugosIavs.
Jacques Duclos, secretary of the
French Communist Party, criticized
the Yugoslav stand today in the
French Communist newspaper LHu-
mantle OF Paris.
He said the Yugoslav reply to the
Cominform issued Tuesday Is a
bunch of irrelevant assertions, of
proofless denials and, in fact, con-
stitutes an attempt to escape the
Iindisputable, Marxism- -Leninism-in-
'spired arguments Of the information
bureau"
THE fact that Yugoslav leaders
failed to publish the information
bureau resolution Is. sufficient evi-
dence of their arguments weakness
as well as Of their fear to enlighten
their people," Duclos wrote.
He and his co-secretary, Etienne
Fajon, were at the meeting at which
the Cominform blamed the Yugo-
slav Communists. No, Yugoslavs
were. Other nations in the bureau
are Russia, Romania, Hungary,
Bulgaria, Czechoslovakia, Poland
and Italy.
Yugoslav Claims Blasted.
Austria's Communist Party took
full advantage of the Tito-Comin-
form dispute to blast Yugoslavia's S
territorial claims on Carinthia, in
Southern Austria.
These claims, backed by the Soviet
Union. have been among the chief
stumbling blocks in the way of CON-
pleting a peace treaty for Austria.
