BUDAPEST, Hungary (UP)
The United States, French and
. British, legations prepared today
to send the wives and children of
their staffs home in the face of
reports that Russia has decided
to retake Budapest by force.
There are about 20 wives and
children of American Legation
members here.
(In Washington, Monsignor Bela
Varga, Hungarian refugee leader,
said Communist Premier Imre
Nagy has resigned. Varga said
Vice Premier Zoltan Tildy, chief
of the anti-Communist Small Hold
ers party, had succeeded Nagy.
Varga said "tremendous" Russian
armies were re-entering Hungary
to seal the borders and try to
starve the Hungarians into sub
mission: City Surrounded
Many Budapest residents were
planning to flee to the west at
tne first sign of attack from Sov
iet troops which were reliably
reported surrounding the city 10
to 15 miles from its center. How
ever, the capital' was quiet this
morning. No sounds of firing that
would indicate the outbreak of
fighting were heard.
(The Austrian radio quoted an
announcement by the "Hungarian
Nationalist Hcadouarters" this
morning that two columns of Sov
iet tanks and motorized troops
were advancing on Budapest from
the northeast. The report said
heavy Soviet bombers ,and jet
fighters had crossed the northeast
ern frontier of Hungary at Zohany
and were heading toward airfields
near Budapest.)
Josef Cardinal Mindszenty again
took the spotlight as the potential
leader of the almost lcaderless
revolution. He appealed to the
West for help "in this critical sit
uation." He said all Hungary de
mands that the Russians leave the
country because the Hungarians
"want to work for themselves and
(or their own nation."
Soviet Troop Movements
An editor of fhe official Hungar
ian MTI News Agency said Soviet
armed units had occupied the Soviet-Hungarian
frontier station of
Sahony this morning, according
to reliable reports. There have
been unconfirmed reports for sev
eral days that the Russians have
poured hundreds of tanks and
trucks across the Russian, Roman
ian and Czcchoslovakian borders.
Budapest Radio broadcast con
tinuous appeals to employes of
firms in the shattered city to re
sume work, but life was slow in
taking on any aspect of normalcy.
Food was dangerously short, street
cars were stalled by lack of power
and buses by a gasoline shortage.
The last Russian armed units
abandoned the cily to the revol
utionaries Wednesday.

Reds Appeal to
Polish People
Not to Revolt
WARSAW, Poland Ml The Pol
ish Communist Party, warned
that a Hungarian-style armed rev
olution might burst out here, ap
pealed to the nation Friday to
maintain calm and discipline.
"Reactionary elements are try
ing to raise their heads," the
party's Central Committee said in
a manifesto.
The committee deplored what it
called the "bestial murders of
Communists in Hungary" and said
Poland should not have the same
kind ofthaos. It urged that there
not be any armed revolt to get
Russian troops to leave Poland.
At the same time the Manifesto,
widely published and broadcast,
said Poland should maintain its
alliance with Russia and attacked
what it termed the 'Anglo-French
aggression in Egypt." .
