Tito has confus ed people before, both com munists and noncommu nists. This dispatch, assem bled by UPI reporters in Belgrade, Brussels, Frank furt and London, examines this latest maneuver and the reasons for it.)

He is pursuing thia policy now in sounding out what advantages there might be for communist Yugoslavia from an association with the capitalistic common market of West Europe. No formal application for joining has yet come from Belgrade, but observers in Brussels, scat of the six-nation common market, think there may be one. And they think, too, that the common market nations - France, West Germany, Italy, Hol land, Belgium and Luxem bourg - would react favor ably. Could Hold Advantages A trade partnership could hold advantages for both sides, politically as well as economically. This is how the matter is viewed in Brussels: - Because Yugoslavia's general economic develop ment is below that of the common market "six," it would not be likely to be granted full partnership but rather given association status, as has already been done with Greece.

A customs union would have to be gradually estab lished so that selected Yugo slav goods could enter the common market countries tariff and quota free, and vice versa. Could Offer Loans It is possible the six would offer Yugoslavia develop ment loans - Greece for ex ample is getting $125 mil lion over the first five years of its associate status. - If Yugoslavia ignored or contested the common market, it would be up against tariffs and quotas imposed by the six on im ports of non-member goods. This could have the effect of pricing the Yugoslavs out of the West European mar ket and forcing them to find new markets elsewhere -mostly to the east. This in turn probably would, in the Brussels view, shove Yugoslavia more strongly into the Soviet or bit. Obviously, western Eu rope doesn't want this to happen so there would be political advantages to en couraging Yugoslavia's bid. Economic Advantage! -There are economic ad vantages for the six, as well. With the removal of tariffs and quotas by Yugoslavia on goods from the common market partners, the six would gain a new customer for a wider variety of ex-, ports and would sell more of them because they would be cheaper to the Yugoslav consumer. From the Yugoslav stand point, the situation is this: -The country, with a rel atively low standard of liv ing, needs both to increase its exports and be able to import more for less money. An association with the common market presuma bly would enable Yugoslav ia to sell its member coun tries more minerals (chief ly lead and copper), timber and-aiming mainly at the Italian and West German markets-more fresh fruits and vegetables. Well-Equipped Shipyard! Yugoslavia also has well equipped shipyards with lower labor costs prevailing than in Western Europe and believes it could snare some business from higher-priced British, German and even Dutch ship-builders. -Yugoslavia's chief im ports are cotton and wool, coke, crude oil, raw mater ials for industry, lard, sugar and, above all, wheat. The country grows only three of the four million tons it needs to feed its people ev ery year. It has had to im port wheat every year since the war except in 1959 when it had an exceptional ly rich harvest. -Generally speaking, in sounding out the common market nations, Yugoslavia is aiming at expanding ex port markets to a much wider field, to Asia, Africa, Latin America. Farther Than Europe The products it hopes to sell farther afield than Eu rope Include tobacco, meat and meat products (many canned varieties of Yugo slav meat already can be found on British and some other continental store shelves), and also precision tools for small factories, farm machinery - and smoked plums. Only Canada out-produces Yugoslavia in smoked plums. Yugoslavia itself is a com munist country with some capitalistic overtones. The mixture shows itself in its agriculture. The Soviet Un ion and its satellites have collectivized their farms, but in Yugoslavia about 80 per cent of farm land re mains in the hands of pri vate farmers making a com fortable living. There are restrictions on this agricultural free enter prise. By law no farmer may own more than 10 hec tares of land-about 24 acres. And he must depend on the Hi '57 FORD f I RANCHERO l I New Motor Automatic 8rP DEAN & TAYLOR PONTIAC CO. 2177 South Pacific Highway MEDFORD state farms for use of trac tors and similar equipment which cannot be privately owned. From time to time there have been reports even the small hectare limit was to be lowered, but at pres ent there is even more agi tation to enlarge the pri vate farms. According to western ex perts, Tito has pocketbook reasons for encouraging some free enterprise on the farms while all industry re mains state - owned. These observers say the state, or collectivized, farms lose money and require consid erable financial priming. The private farms pay their own way and strengthen the economy. In general, the small farm ers seem satisfied. UPI questioned two of the m near Belgrade. Pantelija Jovovic, who owns 13 acres, said: "Coop eration (with the state farm ministry) is very useful when it is in the hands of honest people. My field yields much more now, in some cases double, than it did before the war." Milan Pavlovic who farms 18 acres with his two teen age sons, said: "I am living today on my own land with my two sons much better than I ever lived with my father in old Yugoslavia." But if most Yugoslavs are eating better, they lack many conveniences the peo ple of the common market countries take for granted and can afford. That's where the country's trade problems come in. Yugo slavia must now import more than it exports -or even can export. It needs the imports to feed itself and improve the lot of its citizens; it also has to de auie to increase inem to get more of the materials required to produce a great er quantity of money-making exports. Has Financial Struggle By western standards, the Yugoslav wage-earner has a financial struggle. Estimat ed income of the average Yugoslav worker is between $22 and $33 a month. Monthly rent for a two room flat in the -capital, Belgrade, ranges from $2.60 per month for the very poorest to about $21 in a new apartment house. Bread costs seven cents a pound. A pound of beef costs 50 cents, or about half a day's pay. A decent suit takes more than a full month's earnings. Even at the top of the earning scale, incomes are low to western eyes. A suc cessful Belgrade lawyer can earn about $135 a month, There is general agree ment, in Brussels and else where in Europe, that in flirting with western trad ing markets, Tito is not in the least relaxing his sys tem of "Nationalist Com munism." Rather, say long-term ob servers of Tito's Yugoslavia, he is simply being practical according to his own lights. 11 is partly this willing ness to get the most advan tage from both sides in the cold war that has brought Tito the wrath of the Chi nese Communists who call him a renegade and a traitor. Accounts for Trouble It also has accounted for the troubles he has had with Moscow, although Soviet Premier Nikita Khrushchev, also a practical man, cur rently is wooing Belgrade. A Common Market nego tiator told UPI: "The main thing to remember is that if Tito makes overtures to us, he is doing it for what he hopes to get out of it. We listen to him for the same reason; business goes both ways. But Tito is the same dedicated Communist he al ways has been and all deal ings with him must be con sidered in this contest. If there was a war he wouldn't be on our side." Phone 773-742! MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFORD, Penney's OPEN MONDAY and FRIDAY NIGHT UNTIL 9 P.M. SORRY!
