* YUGOSLAV VOTE ON KING LOOMS

General Election to Be Held After Completion of Liberation. '

Times Foreign Service MOSCOW, Nov. 30.—A general election will be held in Yugoslavia as soon as possible after the completion of the country’s liberation, according to Marshal Tito’s representatives in Moscow.

The first issue to be decided will be the question of whether or not King Peter is to be invited to return to the country and reascend his throne. Every opportunity will be given to the Yugoslav people to express their views on the monarchy, it is understood, although it is not considered likely that a majority will vote for the king's return. The election will be carried out within the framework of the national liberation front. The old political parties of Yugoslavia will not, as such, be represented—for the simple reason, it {3 said, that they no longer command a significant following among the people,

Peasant Party Shrinks

Unlike. Juliu Maniu's Transylvanian peasant bloc in Romania, which is still a political factor, Vladimir (Viatko) Matchek’s Croatian peasant party -in Yugoslavia has dwindled to a point where it no longer. holds any meaning for the peasants, Former members of the Matchek party have long since joined the partisans and they are now caught up in the enthusiasm of rebuilding Yugoslavia according to the progressive program of Marshal Tito's liberation front. : Yugoslav sources say that Dr. Matchek himself has retired from the political scene. Various Serbian parties whose programs were nationalist and centralist, in contrast to Tito's broadly federalist program, are likewise said to have withered away for one reason or another. Their leaders have gone into exile and because of their intransigent opposition to the new regime, few of them are expected ever to return, Gen, Draja Mihailovic (Chetnik leader) and his followers have been Virtually disbanded. According to reports reaching Yugoslav sources here, Mihailovic himself, together with a few of his friends, has already fled from Yugoslavia and has now sought refuge in Italy. The liberation front, remains the sole political force in Yugoslavia. It is not in the plan of its leaders to emulate the old French type

of parliamentary regime which led such a turbulent existence in the Balkans, and which had been supplanted before the war in every

Balkan country by a dictatorship.

Monroney (D,, Okla), which already has passed the senate, The resolution is now before the house rules committee,
