Hungary, the land was In the hands
of a population by no means reliable.
The soil of these threatened districts
must be in the hands Of those who
deserve confidence. With this in view,
any transfer Of land will be made
hereafter subject to consent of the
authorities. Leases also will depend
on the authorities. The length Of Q

THE state must carry out a healthy
distribution of land to the Magyar

Why the Aezossy decree Is only a be-
ginning. We demand that this pol

long as the government remains In
power It must employ that power to
make the Magyars rulers OF Magyar
