TITO
TO
UP NEW TRICKS
By CHARLES WARLINGTON
Belgrade.
TS Tito getting worried? Or is the wily old man of the mountains work- ing up a new plan to play the East off against the West?
There are no clear-out answers in this bustling capital where everybody works overtime and fow dare to discuss politics.
But one thing la mure-something
is up.
Only a month ago, Tito was hinting at a Balkan Pact.
A few days before that, he was say ing that Yugoslavia might sign up with West European union if Germany and France could patch up their quarrela and if the pact was not purely military.
Last week he announced coldly. "Yugoslavia is opposed to the creation of any blocs in Europe."
And he went on to say specifically that he would have no truck with any Atlantic Pact. Moreover, he would like to see a general conference of European powers--provided everybody wanted one and everybody had time to prepare for It.
