Now that both leading candidates

Budapest, Aug. 1.-Hungary's
statesmen are fearful of the conse-
quences if the bolsheviki crush Po-
land. Admiral Nicholas Horthy, Re-
gent of Hungary, when seen at his
palace office by the Associated Press
correspondent, said on that subject:
SHOULD Poland collapse Europe
would have to face a serious crisis,
since all international order and
standing power Of Central Europe
has been shaken by the breakdown
after five years of war and by the
crushing peace treaty in addition to
other evils in the wake Of war. The
treaties dictated by the allies were
unable to create order and tranquil
lity, on the contrary all our evils
grew more acute and all painful
problems, on the way Of solution more
or less in the past, face us grimly
like as many sphinxes. Central
Europe is a volcano after the erup-
tion, still covered with smoke, and
we cannot see any reassuring sign
as yet to avert dangers lurking in
the future above Europe.
IT am informed about the prepara-
tions of the bolshevists. These pre-
parations are not Of recent date
and it is not exclusively Hungary
they are related to. Bolshevistic
propaganda is an enemy OF all coun-

States and Canada just as well as in
Hungary.
The most dangerous means OF all
bolshevistic offepsives is just the
propaganda and from that viewpoint
cessation in the bolshevistic offensive
against Hungary. On the contrary
1t maintains feverish activity
against us by the means Of the Hun
garian communstic fugitives in
Vienna aided with Russian money. 1t
is a pity that in many western
countries people do not realize the
dangers and the means OF the bolshe-
visit propaganda.
The relation of Hungary to her
neighbors depends solely upon how
our neighbors wish to establish Il to-
ward us. It is in their interest that
the treaty has been forced on us by
the allies so that is their duty to
start better relations. Altho 1t is
much easier for them to do that. un-
happily they show very few signs
of their intentions to that effect up
to the present They continue their
intolerable attitude toward Hungary

neighbors have really serious In
tention to improve general senti-
ment toward us. they have to make
1t possible. first Of all, for those fell

fortunate spot OF Europe there
should be open for everybody
chance to make living compatible
with human dignity. It would be
of first rate Importance to have ef-
fected that improvement in public
sentiment. as preliminary condi-
ton to the resumption OF economic
connections.
The misery OF the people OF these
territories of the former Austro-
Hungarian monarchy. compact
economical territory In the past, is
due mainly to the fact, that all the
natural, economic ties are cut and
they are being forced into the most
unnatural connections. We quote as
an instance the salt supply OF the
country which commodity could be
procured from the mines of a few
kilometers distant from the present

of all that we are obliged to supply
