Overthrow Tito Said To Have Failed

Belgrade, June 22.--Yugoslav leaders to- day pronounced the failure of what they called a "fqul" campaign by Russia to overthrow the regime of Marshal Tito. Tito's lieutenants at the same time reported that for all prac- tical purposes the remainder of the Cominform Bloc had broken off relations with Yugoslavia. They said Russia, Poland, Czechoslovakia, Bulgaria, Hungary and Rumania had severed not only their political ties but even cultural and economic relations with Yugoslavia.
