YUGOSLAVIA FACES CRISIS.
INDECISIVE ELECTION.
PREMIER WITHOUT MAJORITY
DICTATORSHIP MOOTED.
By Telegraph Press Association—Copyright. A. and N.Z. BELGRADE. March 20. The political situation in Yugoslavia is highly complex and dangerous. In order to command a majority M, Pashitch should have secured 160 seats at the recent elections ; instead he only won about 120. It is expected that th& Skuptscina (Parliament) will be again, dissolved and a military dictatorship established. M. Pashitch has not had a majority since the Democrats seceded from the Coalition in 1922. The Croats thus far have refused to recognise the constitution which M. Pashitch's Coalition passed, and have boycotted the Skuptscina.
