A medical bulletin issued by the cardinal's personal physician, Dr. Branislav Bogicevic, said an autopsy established a blood clot blocking the lung artery as the cause of death.

Reliable sources said the cardinal had refused an offer from authorities a few days ago to move into a hospital of his choice, in Yugoslavia or abroad. The cardinal reportedly explained that he wished to remain in Krasic. where he had been confined since he was paroled in 1951 from a 16 year-prison term for allgedely wartime collaboration with the Nazis.

Reverent villagers silently filed past the cardinal's bier in the 400-year-old parish church, while bells tolled and black flaes hung in the frosty air. Cfcmmunist authorities maintained a tight cordon around the small, wine growing village where the 61 year-old cardinal had been confined for the past nine years until his death yesterday. The Yugoslav government refused permission for the funeral to be held at Zagreb, seat of his archdiocese. But Yugoslavia's 22 Roman Catholic bishops, the cardinal's family and other people of Zagreb will be permitted to attend requiem Mass and burial services in Krasic at 9 a.m. Saturday.

NEW YORK, Feb. 11 W) Vito Genovese, 63-year-old reputed American lord of the dreaded black-hand Mafia, was something less than a tough underworld figure today as he started his journey to 15 years in jail.

The balding racketeer, striving to retain a semblance ot composure as he surrendered, to federal officials, clamped: his jaws together and fought, back tears.

Khrushchev Calls For Disarmament As Asia Trip Opens NEW DELHI, Feb. 11 Following in President Eisenhower's footsteps, Nikita S. Khrushchev swung into his South Asian tour here today with a call for world disarmament.

He said disarmament is now strictly up to the West. Welcomed in relatively low-keyed fashion by New Delhi street crowds, the Soviet Premierwhom President Rajen dra Prasad has termed "the second messenger of peace" said it is pointless to argue whether modern war would mean greater losses for one side or another. At airport welcoming cere monies, before India Parliament and at a banquet given in his honor by President Prasad, Khrushchev held that war must be abandoned as madness. Looking weary and in a som ber mood, the 65-year-old Rus sian leader told India's Parlia ment: "It is our firm conviction that the principles of peaceful coexistence should be the basis for settling all disputed interna tional issues. This means that the way to solve them should be through negotiations on an equal footing rather than through pressure and dictation tactics." Speaking of the 10-nation, East-West disarmament conference to open in Geneva March 15.

Khrushchev said: "Let me assure you the Soviet Union will do everything in its power to assure that these talks result in a treaty of general and complete disarmament. The solution of these problems now depends on the Western Side." Kidnaping of Coors, if they were responsible for his disappearance. He also disclosed he had started officers on a tour of mountain groceries and supply stores in the area southwest of here to see if anyone had made any large purchases of groceries or supplies recently. He said such a large sale might indicate kidnapers planned to "hole up" in the mountains with the 44-year-old brewery executive un til a ransom could be paid. Other officers were searching summer cabins in the region to see if Coors might be held in one by abductors.

Coors has been missing and presumed kidnaped since his was found abandone on a wind ing road about two miles north of his home. While the vast search for the wealthy man was underway his family fervently offered to "buy." at anjr cost, his return. Manacled, mute and nervously chomping gum, he was loaded aboard a police van along with 10 other prisoners for a well-guarded trip to the Federal House of Detention. Later he will be transferred to his prison home. Genovese, described by the U.S.

Government as "king of the rackets" and U.S. chief of the world-wide terror and crime Mafia organization, was sentenced to 15 years after conviction on narcotics conspiracy charges. He was one of 15 men convicted last April 3 in a mass narcotics traffic trial. Gen. MacArthur Walks 1st Time Since Illness NEW YORK, Feb.
