 Being aware, finally, that the genuine Hungarians have never op- pressed the various races that dwell within their midst, we emphatically raise our voice of protest, against the attitude of those who are belittling our race and our name with unjust charge. Nations, delivered from Aus trian oppression, ought to work to- gether, in friendly understanding, in- stead of trying to oppress one another.

MAGYARS GLAD
 THAT HUNGARY
 IS INDEPENDENT I

The Magyars (Hungarian) held mass meeting on Sunday evening". at Rakoczi hall, Bridgeport. About 2,00O men and women were present. The speakers were: John T. King, Edward IT. Buckingham, Rev. Stephen F. Csernitzky, Rev. Joseph Kovalchik, i Rev. Alexander Ludman and John Dezso, who presided at the meeting. l The meeting accepted cheerfully the | following resolutions:
 | The gratitude towards America has not ceased to fill our hearts. It | is not merely a sentiment, but has often proven by worthy deeds. There were neither spies nor trait ors in our midst We willingly sent our sons to war; not for the selfish aim of any foreign interest, but eX- clusively for the lofty ideals of Amer ica We were amongst the first, to lend money to our adopted country; to aid the Red Cross, and to support every noble movement, in behalf of the social uplift of Americas sol diers.
 With heart and soul we do now approve, and promise to help the new War Work Campaign also, knowing that this chief purpose is to safe guard the high moral standard of the victorious American army.
 "Why shouldn't our gratitude be deep and true, towards this glorious country which granted freedom for us here, and which helped our native Hand to free itself over there! For, through Americas altruistic entrance into this world-war, and by her sue cessive victories, Hungary finally lib- erated herself from centuries-eld lyoke.
 Consequently, while greeting with rapturous enthusiasm. the dawn of Hungary's independence, and strengthened aby the hope of better and happier future, we solemnly de-
 sire may positively expect that the internal policy of our mother country be founded on the glorious tradition of Louis Kossuths ideals!
 Being impressed, therefore, by the force of conviction that, amongst the standard bearers of Hungarian inde- Ipendence, Count Michael Karolyi IS the truest interpreter of America s
 pure democracy we therefore joyous 1y approve and internationally fol-
