Dearer Smokes for Jugoslavs Belgrade
AP reports price hikes in Yugoslavia with a 125 percent increase to 90 dinars for 20 cigarettes, about 14 Austratan per pack, while industrial coupons rise for state workers to offset costs. Housewives trade coupons for clothes and goods as wage levels stay around 4000 to 5000 dinars monthly, forcing tough choices between cigarettes and meals. The government seeks revenue while Macedonia tobacco exports and a Cominform linked program for discarded cigarette buys affect consumption and stores.
