' 1 .-' 14 DIK IN TRUCK CRASH PUSAN. Korea, Nov. II (JrV-A Korean army truck plunged off a mountain road into a ravine north east' of here yesterday, killing 14 and injuring, 39 persons. South Korean police said the dead in cluded 11 student soldiers. , " Confirm Continues The strike, which apparently has brought a large segment of Hungarian industry to a standstill,1 was started by rebelling workers to enforce their demands for in dependence, freedom from Rus sian dictation and the restoration of Premier Imre Nagy, Titoist Communist, to power. Bitter Protests In recent days, the strike has hardened as workers protested bitterly against deportation by the Russians of thousands of Hunga rians. Whether these victims of Soviet wrath have been sent to Russia or locied up in camps in the countryside has not been defi nitely confirmed. MaroMn said in bis speech Uiat in different parts of the' country, "agitators are hampering by. ru mors and armed groups by terror ist acts and threats the resump tion of work" in Hungary's fac tories and mines. - , - - Radio Budapcst""ela1ihed "In "I broadcast this morning that these armed groups were threatening workers that wanted to go back' to their Jobs and that orders had gone to "round up, arrest or li quidate" them. 'Noae Deportee" But, this newscast said, "Ru mors of deportations, spread by the - counterrevolutionaries, are without foundation. Not eoo single person has been deported to the Soviet Union." Budapest Radio admitted such deportations last week but this morning's broadcast said false ru mors ' of deportations were being spread "to create unrest .among the population and to destroy the . goad-relations, between. th&. Hun garian people and the Russian soldiers. ' The government admitted to night, apparently in an effort to soften the bitterness which has swept the nation over reports of deportations, that "counterrevolu tionary elements and terrorists" have been rounded up and are being held "somewhere in the country." These persons are being kept away from their homes -until in vestigation can be made of their activities. Radio Budapest said. 'Soar Released" ' T "Such persons," the broadcast said, "are released, as soon as pos sible. In the course of restoring order, Soviet authorities also have made arrests, but the arrested persons are being turned over to Hungarian authorities. All such persons will be dealt with by Hun garian authorities or, if necessary, by Hungarian courts on Hungarian territory." The government did not give any estimate of the number of persons held. Nor did it attempt to , answer , frequent reports of long trains of sealed cars being moved toward the Russian fron tier, presumedly under Soviet aus pices. ' j Marosan, in his speech, gave full play to the Moscow thesis that while the Hungarian rebellion in its earlier stage was justified. counterrevolutionary - elements" supported by Fascists and West ern imperialists took it over later to the detriment of the nation and the working people He singled out American-sponsored Radio Free Europe as one of the organs supplying advice to the counterrevolutionaries and said it had done "serious damage to the cause of the nation." Marosan said relief supplies coming to Hungary "from the friendly Socialist countries and from the West can only lighten our difficulties, but the basic sup ply of the people has to be ac complished by ourselves." Japanese Fishing Boats Fired On By Chiang Force TOKYO. Nov. II l-The Mari time Safety Board said today two Japanese fishing boats were fired upon by Nationalist Chinese coast al batteries last night in Formo san waters.
