German Reds
Back Tito In
Soviet Clash
Russian Note Threatens
Yugoslavs As Split In
Communism Increases
'By the Associated Press'
Premier Marshal Tito of Yugo
slavia drew surprise support from
a group oi uerman communists
today. This sign of the growing
split in the ranks of world com
munism came as Yugoslavia's war
of words with Russia reached a
new pitch of intensity.
A Russian note to Belgrade at
the weekend threatened to take
"effective measures" to protect
Soviet citizens in Yugoslavia. Re
plying, the Yugoslav communist
newspaper Borda accused the
Kremlin of using those citizens
as spies.
British newspapers quickly
noted the similarity between the
stern tone of the Soviet note and
the language used by Hitler be
fore he sent the German army
into action a decade ago. They
said the Russian note sounded like
the worst threat of war since
1939.
The concern of the Kremlin It
self over its relations with Tito
apparently was reflected in the
Soviet press and radio, which de
voted much space and time lo
foreign reactions to the Soviet
note.
Half of Pravda's foreign news
page was taken up with dis
patches from abroad on the sub-
ject. Sample headlines in the
official Soviet Communist party
newspaper were:
"Tito's clique conducting secret
negotiations wltn Vatican.
"Traitorous deal of the Tito
clique with Greek monarchist
Fascists (nationalists)."
Tito has been feuding with the
Kremlin for more than a year.

sia regards a orthodox commu

One of the Kremlin's fears is
that Tito's show of national in
dependence will spread to other
eastern European countries in the
Soviet sphere and to communist
parties elsewhere. This fear is
shown by Moscow's insistence

'By th Associated Press)
A sharp series of earthquakes

northwest last night for about
five minutes. No major damage
occurred and no casualties were

Alaska, south to Portland, Ore.
Store windows were smashed

wave swept along the waterfront
at Ketchikan, Alaska, moments
after the shock. Dishes were
knocked from shelves and pic

Ten houseboats were torn from
th?ir moorings in Seattle's Lake
