changed their green arm bands
for red. bull, they may not speak
their minds. To speak one word
that is not good against Stalin is
an offense punishable by death.
Even listening to such a conver
sation is reason for arrest and
long imprisonment. Miklos, him
self, saw several public execu
tions ol persons who voiced criti
cism. He was in Hungary only
six weeks after the Russians
came.
On the other hand, residents of
Austria and Germany are quite
happy under American rule, he
said.
Miklos is happy to be in Amer
ica, and he wants to be a credit
to his new country. "What I don't
know about farming I hope to
leant soon, by pure hard work,
he vowed. The family is looking
forward to rural life, on the farm
owned by William R. Lawson,
who homesteaded there in 1904.
Ugly In Practice.
Americans simply can't imag
ine how horrible communism can
be, Miklos said. The writings of
Marx, Lenin and Stalin are beau
tiful to read. But communism, in
practice, is ugly.
Miklos was interested in the
photographer's camera, because
photography used to be his hob
by. That was before the commun
ists plundered his home in Hun
gary and smashed his $800 cam
era. He has a small camera of
Russian make which he brought
with him. "But it's no good," he
confided. "I just bought it so we
could take pictures of the chil
dren while they are small."
The Leoveys' dream to come to
America began to take shape.
when they were sent from Aus
tria to Bremen by the Interna
tional Relief organization. There
they boarded a DP transport
loaded with 1,300 homeless Euro
peans. (Five ships, carrying dis
placed persons to new homes,
left Bremen in the past month.
So far, 300,000 have been sent to
North American countries.)
The army transport carrying
the Leoveys was on the high seas
for 13 days Both Miklos and
Maria were "awfully sick" four
days, but the children suffered
no ill effects. They reached New
York Fab. 19, and went by plane
to Seattle, than to Portland. They
arrived in Portland Wednesday
morning and were met there by
Rev. Baker, of the Redmond Com
munity Presbyterian church.

Coal Strike
(Continued from Page 1)
in the order today to show cause
why the union should not be tried
for contempt, and he will not be
tried.
The 372,000 striking miners con
tinued to defy Keech's back-to-work
order. They have said pub
licly that nothing short of a new
contract will send them back to
the mines.
Some government officials had
hoped the contempt case would
force a settlement of the long
dispute and eliminate the need
for further government action
like seizure of the mines. Other
officials have been saying for
aays mat seizure seems inevit
able." President Truman told his news
conference yesterday the dispute
is in the courts. His statement
apparently ruled out any new gov
ernment move until the contempt
proceedings are over.
Precedent Seen
The government was expected
to ask the court to follow prece
dent set by Judge T. Alan Golds
borough In a 1948 coal contempt
case. Goldsborough held that a
union and its president were re
sponsible for the mass action of
its members unless it has been
upset by internal revolt.
Lewis and the union have paid
out $2,130,000 in fines for defying
two no-strike orders issued by
Goldsborough.
Lewis is demanding a 95-cent a
day wage boost, a shorter work
day, and a 15-cent increase in
operator royalties to the UMW
welfare fund. The operators in
sist that they have conceded
nothing, but some Informed sourc
es claim the industry has offered
a $l-a-day "package" increase.
