Yugos|avia Tranquil
But Tension Is Evident
Over Anti-Tito Drive
BY the Assoeiotsd Prsss

BELGRADE, Yugoslavia. Oct. 3.
Tension is increasing among
Yugoslav citizens as the cold war
between the Russian-led Comm
form and independent Communist
Yugoslavia mounts to its tough
est-talking stage yet.
But-outwardly at least-the
country is calm. There is no ap-
prehension that q shooting war
will come soon. no elaborate pre-
cautions against the possibility OF
an invasion.
Even after being told frankly
OF the series Of ruptures of the
country's alliances and friendship
pacts by Russia and her satellites
"a movement in which Romania
yesterday joined Poland, Bulgaria
and Hungary-the country re-
mains calm.
Most War Talk in Trieste.
In q i,2O0-mile swing through
the country, just ended, an Asso-
ciated Press correspondent found
more war talk in the rumor ridden
free city of Trieste, just over the
Yugoslav border. than along the
way across Serbia's broad plains
or through the steep hills of the
north.
Along battered dirt roads
peasants led lollins oxen pulling
carts loaded with casks Of Slivo-
viza-the national drink-and
farm products to market.
There were no troop movements
to interfere with these peaceful
pursuits, even in such towns as
Nasice and Osijek. both within 20
miles of the Hungarian border.
It is true that troops have been
assembled for big-scale army ma
neuvers in Serbia south OF Bel
grade. Army exercises are Gus
tomary in the Balkans at this
time of the year. But 1t seems
Marshal Tito would be unlikely to
pull troops out Of a strategic part
of the country to participate in
war games if he anticipated any
attack.
Soviet Dictation Charged.
A Yugoslav government spokes-
man charged Soviet Russia today
with "dictation and interference"
in domestic affairs of Communist
satellite nations.
The accusation was made by
Osman Karabegovic, a member OF
the Communist Party's Central
Committee, in an international
peace day" statement in the Yugo-
slav capital.
As printed in the official news
paper Borba, Karabegovic said the
Soviet Union was spreading poi
son propaganda" in the Russian
led Cominform campaign against
Premier Marshal Tito's regime.
Just as Tito had done earlier,
he said the Yugoslav people are
united as one man to defend the
country's liberty and are deter
mined firmly to fight against the
use of force and threats" in re-
lations among Communist coun-
tries.

Philip Murray, CIO United Steel

announced suspension of pay
ments from the mine workers
pension and welfare fund. The
fund trustees said the fund was
nearly broke. because some South
ern operators failed to pay their
20-cent-a-ton royalty.
Mr.. Lewis resumes contract
negotiations with operators on
Wednesday. But he's never told
anybody exactly what he wants
to make peace in the coal fields.
The uncertain peace in the
Pennsylvania soft coal fields. where
some non-union pits have con-

The coal strike has cost miners
$50, 0,000,0 900 in wages. companies
have lost 100000, 900 in sales. The
Nations coal-carrying railroads
have laid of about $4,000
employees.
Mr.. Murray broke OF negotiat-
tions with Big Steel four hours
before his steelworkers struck at
1901 am. Saturday. No new talks
are scheduled.
The steel strike scene, every
where, is generally quiet. A hand
full Of pickets stand In front Of
