CONDITIONS IN
BUDAPEST SAID
TO Be GR0TESQUE
Proletariat Occupy Marble Pal
aces of Kings Under T0psy
Turvy Bella Kun Rule.

CORRESPONDENCE of Associated Press)
Vienna, May 12.-Conditions in
Budapest and the surrounding country
under the fantastic government OF
Bella Kun and his soviet are grotes-
que. 1t has just become known the
Countess Rada is scrubbing stairways
in one of the city prisons. Count
julius Szechenyi, aged ninety, form
erly master to the Kings horse. is one
of those who has incurred the dis
pleasure of the ruling forces. In
spite of his age, he has been forcibly
removed from his home and imprison-
ed. What disposition will be made of
him is not likely to reach the pubic
until it has been ordered and executed.
Every room in the handsome marble
palace of Count Louis Karolyi, the
former Austrian ambassador to Lon
don, is occupied by some of the vaun-
ted proletarist, with such results as
might be expected. Stovepipes stick
from the lace-curtained windows, and
the silk-covered walls are smoky,
g1imy and greasy. Protective covers
have been torn from rich divans and
handsome chairs Co be used for dish
rags. Costly bronzes, Clipped and
mutilated, are being used as play
things by the proletarian children.
It is the same in the handsome resi-
tience of Count Andrassy next door,
where squalor and dirt are rapidly re-
placing the magnificence and polish
Of happier day.
Day by day comes the news of in
creasing violence on the part of those
who are in power. The latest in
stances have to do with Ludwig Nav
w, former president of the Hungar-
ian parliament. He was seibed at
his country home and while being
taken from the train and shroft to
death by the red guard who gave as
an excuse that he was trying to es-
cape.
Altogether the situation in Buda-
pest is rapidly approaching the point
where there will be the custory ap-
peal to the "great big-hearted Amer
ica' to feed and clothe the people
Security of life and property is grow
ing less with every and the once
magnificent city is rapidly taking on
an appearance to which it's people
hitherto been strangers.
Neglect of agriculture is one of
the outstanding features of the situa-
ton. 1t is estimated that so percent
of the tilalble soil has not been plow-
ed, partly due to the disorganization
and decentralization occasioned by an
order of the soviet which forced land
owners to raise the wages of farm
laborers from five crowns to 80
/ crowns per day. and also to give them
butter and milk without any charge
and to see that they were properly
clothed
The appeal to the United States for
help is expected to come chiefly from
the people who have done nothing tc
work what ne wfields are now unde,
cultivation and who never had man,
clothes or felt the need for them.

prior to the war would have been far
more rapid. The vision of most of
the railroad officials Of the South was
never broad enough to fully grasp
the potentialities of their own sec
ton, and how these potentialities
could be made realities by the same
character of work which wrought the
marvels and the miracles in wealth
creation in California.
A large portion of Southern rail-
road officials seemede to look upon
publicity work and industrial and ag-
ricultural development as neces-
sary evil which must be grudgingly
cared for, without having any real
conception of the fact that these
two factors could do more to create
business for them than all other
means which they adopted for finding
freight and travel traffic.
We hope for better things when
the railroads are once more under
the control of their owners, though
we freely admit that we have not yet
seen any evidence that the railroad
officials generally, or at least those
connected with the Railroad Adj
ministration, have grown any broad
err in their conception Of the posi-
bilities of industrial and agricul-
tural development work than they
were prior to the time when the
roads passed under the control of the
government

son of Mrs. John Mayes who recen,

a serious injury to his right hand yes,

He believed the grenade had been ex-

friends, dropped it to the ground

tect a small child which was near, his
hand was badly torn. 1t was thought
at first that an amputation was neces,
sary, but an examination showed thai
no bones were broken.
