Hungary Country of Despair
Under Heel of Communism
Vienna-ICPD-Hungary today
little more than two and a
hall years after Soviet tanks
and jet fighters crushed the
revolution of October, 1956
lives a life of despair with
no hope of freedom.
The Kremlin-installed re
gime of Premier Ference Mu
ennich and Communist Party
boss Janos Kadar has estab
lished an even sterner police
regime than before the revolt
and has taken strong steps to
prevent another uprising.
According to reliable re
ports from Hungary, more
than 2,000 persons have
been executed so far for their
part in the revolution. At

Warren N. What's wrong
with helping out an old
friend?
Betsy N. - But they live
better than we do!
Warren N. My wife and
I aren't speaking to each oth
er these days over an issue in
which I am clearly in the
right.
Six months ago an old
friend came to me and asked
fgr a loan. This man was head
over heels in debt because of
illness in his family. He had
"lost his job mainly because of
the upset all this illness had
caused. That's why he was
unable to get a bank loan.
Neither he nor his wife had
any close relatives they could
come to. He was about to lose
his home. This same man's
mother had been very kind
and helpful to me when I
was a young man living away
from my family. She often
used to invite me to dinner
when I hadn't enough money
to buy a decent one of my
own. I gave him $500 and my
wife is furious. I think her
attitude is cold and selfish.
Betsy N. This man just
used Warren as a "soft
touch." Warren calls him an
old friend, but he hadn't seen
him nearly ten years before
this event. What kind of
friend is that?
This man and his family
live better than we do. They
have a beautiful home in one
of the better sections. Why
couldn't he borrow on his
home? Is it our business to
help out a man who doesn't
want to risk lowering his
standard of living? I doubt
whether we'll ever have as
much as he has. Has Warren
a right to take from his own
family to give to another?
I also don't like the way
this man sneaked around to
get hold of Warren when I
wouldn't be there. He must
have guessed that I would be
a tougher customer. As for
his mother giving Warren
some dinners a few centuries
ago, well I certainly don't
think that was worth $500.
The Council - From the
practical point of view, War
ren may have made a bad
mistake. Certainly, there is a
lot fishy about the story of a
man with a high standard of
living who can't or won't get
a finance company loar)' to
day. But for the sake of tbe
moral argument we'll coi
cede that this man was in a
desperate spot.
We believe, first, that War
ren was right to want to help
a friend and second, that he

New Strains on People
The 21st Soviet Communist
party Congress in March
brought new strains on the
Hungarian people with Kadar
telling the country it was
"trailing behind other Com
munist nations in building
socialism." .
"We must summon all our
forces to make up for trailing
behind the others to come
abreast of other peoples' de
mocracies," Kadar declared.
was right to want to repay
an old kindness. This can't
always be repaid by a score
card. .
. We do take exception to
Warren's lending the money
without discussing it with his
wife. It does concern her.
Wives are notoriously
tougher than husbands on this
subject. They put their fam
ily's welfare above any other
duty or outside tie. , We do
not feel that this is always
a correct ' position. Under
certain conditions, a man
might have some moral obli
gation that calls for a sacri
fice. But the man should be
at least willing to have the
thing out. Warren was ob
viously afraid ' to face the
music as far as his wife was
concerned.
However, it would have
been so much better for him
to have "had it out" before
instead of after the loan was
made. Talking things over
with his wife might have
helped him to see the issue
more clearly. He might have
become aware, of certain
weaknesses in his friend's
position. He might even have
been able to help his friend
in a better way if he had
taken the time and trouble to
probe a little further into the
situation.
A person who makes him
self a soft touch is often one
who enjoys a little too much
the position of power afford
ed by giving handouts. This
is certainly no generosity in
the best sense of the word.
Peiping Claims
Victories in Tibet
Tokyo (UPD ' Peiping Radio
Thursday claimed "tremen
dous victories" in a Red Chi
nese army offensive against
a n t i - Communist Tibetan
forces and said the rebellion
in Lhasa had been completely
quelled.
At the same tsie, Peiping
bitterly attacked India for the
second straight day and sug
gested it keep out of Tibetan
affairs.
The Communist New China
News Agency said that when
the rebellion was . crushed in
Lhasa Chinese troops were
"ordered to take punitive
military action against the
Tibetan clique of traitors."
Eugene-flJPD-Paul B. Means,
professor of philosophy and
head of the religion depart
ment at the University of Or
egon, has resigned effective
at the end of the current
school year.

The belief in Vienna is that
the Kremlin has told Kadar
that Hungary must get back
on its own feet and not expect
to live forever on Russian
loans, as it has been doing
since, the 1956 uprising.
Aid Necessary j
According to Eastern ex
perts here, Hungary could
hardly have survived the post-
revolution period without Rus
sian aid. Even today, they
add, Hungary's national pro
duction is still far behind the
pre-revolutionary level.
Informed observers say that
since 1956 Hungary must be
regarded as the Soviet bloc's
most serious liability. Russia's
post-revolution aid included
a loan of 875 million rubles
(officially, $218,750,000)
granted early in 1957 and an
other loan of 300 million
rubles ($75 million) for 1558.
In addition to these loans,
delivered partly in goods, oth
er satellite countries granted
Hungary financial aid in va
rious forms totaling another
$60 million.
Must Pay Interest
Starting next year, accord
ing to an official Hungarian
g o v e rnment announcement,
the country must start paying
interest on these loans, plac
ing additional strains on the
national budget.
Ways and means of strength
ening the Hungarian economy
have been outlined since Ka
dar's return from Moscow.
The "only solution to help
in building socialism is a
speedy socialization of agricul
ture," the government said.
This means, according to
sources here, that the Hun
garian regime has returned to
a policy of forced collectiv
ization of farms, a system that
practically disintegrated dur
ing the revolution.
Heat on Farmers
The Kadar regime, in the
first months of its rule, ab
stained from exerting any
pressure on farmers to bring
them back to the collective
farms. Kadar even went so
far as to approve a limited
free market where farmers
were allowed to sell their
products for profit.
But the new agricultural
policy means that the heat is
on the farmers now. The
party's Central Committee re
cently called for the estab
lishment of "collectivization
boards" in villages in order to
help form new collectives.
Some 500 well-trained party
functionaries were sent to the
provinces to propagandize on
the benefits of state-controlled
farms.
All indications are that the
average Hungarian citizen
will have to tighten his belt
even more in the future than
he has in the past.
Man Arraigned on
Bad Check Charges
Charles William Murray,
34, of 335 South Front st.,
was arraigned in district court
Wednesday on charges of ut
tering and publishing a false
check.
He was bound over to the
grand jury by Judge Roy Ba
shaw with bail set at $1,500.
He also waived the right to
an attorney and preliminary
hearing.
Murray was arrested Tues
day by Medford city police
for cashing two checks in the
Medford area earlier this
month.

Boat Kits Can Take
Hours of Careful
Planning To Build
New York -JUPB-Assembling
your own boat? Remember -it
takes more than two guys
and a keg of beer to put to
gether even the smallest pre
fabricated kit boat.
And it usually can't be done
in a day even with power
tools.
If you're a real handcrafts
man mainly because there is
no electrical power available
- a kit boat of the simplest
style can take hours of care
ful planning and labor.
The planning is the most
important part and the labor
is just work.
The first step after deciding
how large and what style boat
best suits your needs is to ask
a boat dealer or a reputable
old salt to recommend a manu
facturer of boat kits.
Leisure Construction
Once you have place your
order, start thinking about a
convenient place out of the
way of normal living-where
construction can be accom
plished at a leisurely pace.
Garages, porches and recrea
tion rooms are liable to be
needed before you get
through.
Basements are suitable and
work there can be done in
rainy weather when the back
yard might be too damp. Of
course, everyone knows the
basement door nas to be big
enough vto haul out the com
pleted boat.
When the kit arrives, the
first thing to do is dig for the
directions and retire to soli
tude for -careful study. Then
check the various parts to see
they all arrived, and figure
what tools will be needed.
Ceiling on Basic
Speed Rule Urged
Salem - (UPD - The State
Traffic Safety Commission
has voted to recommend to
the Legislature adoption of a
law putting a ceiling on Ore
gon basic speed rule. The
move also is supported by
Gov. Mark Hatfield.
The proposal calls for a
maximum speed of 70 miles
an hour in the state, unless
otherwise posted, with the
basic rule applying below the
maximum.
Also set would be a 20-mile-an-hour
limit in school zones
and a 30-mile-an-hour ceiling
in urban districts.
Any speed in excess of those
designated would be a viola
tion of the basic rule.
There are about 10,000 eat
ing places in New York City
exclusive of refreshment
stands.

If the kit comes equipped
with a screw driver, don't -be
misled by thinking this will
be a one-tool job. Various size
drills, a counter-sinking tool,
a rasp, a saw and a hammer
are also basic.
If a power drill is used, the
job goes more quickly, but, if
not, a yankee screw driver or
a brace with a screw-head bit
are much easier than working
with a simple hand screwdriv
er. Most kit boats are built on
a sawhorse-type form which
is constructed first. Don't just
nail it together loosely, think
