...jail at Mitrovica, 40 miles northwest of Belgrade, was built (the story goes), and many people came to visit its inmates-who included, between World Wars I and II, such distinguished members of the subsequent Communist government of Yugoslavia as President Jbsip Broz Tito, successive Vice Presidents Milovan Djilas and Alexander Ran-kovic, and late Assembly President Mosha Pijade. The Communists had such an easy time of it in Mitrovica jail (Tito swotted up on Stalinism, Pijade , translated Das Kapital and smuggled it out to a printer) that when they took over, they made certain that their own victims...
...Communists to dramatize their message to the Russian people. They have also served as a means by which those who control them can, by involving oppositionists, destroy them.

...great high-wire artists met last week in Belgrade. Clad in gleaming white jodhpurs and close-fitting achkan (three-quarter length jacket) of cinnamon homespun. India's arch-equilibrist Jawaharlal Nehru had come to return a visit paid him last winter by Yugoslavia's Josip Broz Tito, a man even more skilled at walking the tightrope of neutralism. There was no real business to be transacted between them, but at least the two could compare notes and talk about their favorite topic-advantageous coexistence...
