Mass Meeting.
By the Associated Press.


BUDAPEST, April 35.-The Hun
garian Revisionist League, which Is
openly demanding return Of q por-
ton Of Czechoslovakia to Hungary, to-
day reported marked membership
gains and intensified interest As 4
result of yesterdays demonstration
voicing its demands.
Twenty thousand persons attended
the Sunday mass meeting to shout
insistence on the return of Upper
Hungary. and thousands more. un-
able to get inside Redouten Hall on
the Danube. listened to the proceed
ings through loudspeakers. 1t was
the first such meeting held legally in
Hungary since 1893.
Now 100000 Members.
Revisionist LeagIe officers said that
according to their calculations the
membership now Is about 1000, 900.
OF these thousands are members Of
the league directly and hundreds of
Hungarian social and political So
cieties have joined the league in
groups. The population Of Hungary
in 1880 was s,683,740.
The mass meeting adopted a reso-
luton declaring the time had come
for revision of the Trianon treaty fix
ing Hungary's postwar boundaries
and said the Hungarian Society SOL
emnly swears not to rest until this
sacred aim has been fulfilled, SO help
US God!"
Francis Herczeg, president OF the
league. playwright and author, said
it was merely a coincidence that his
organization held a demonstration the
same day that Konrad Henlein's party
was calling Germans in Czechoslo-
vakia to more intensive action.
Aims Declared Different.
He said that although the Revision
ist League sympathized with the Su-
deten Germans the aims of the two
groups were different. The Germans
in Cxechoslovakia, he said. we're de-
manding minority rights: the Hunga-
rian revisionists insisted on outright
territorial revision.
The resolution adopted by Sundays
mass meeting declared:
Czech politicians with falsified
maps and forged statistical data OBJ
tanned Upper Hungary from the great
powers at the peace conference. )" .
The Magyar, German and Polish popu-
lation lacks even the elementary rights
granted by the treaty. Czechoslovakia
is a bridge permitting Russian bol-
shevism to enter Europe"

GROUP PLAN NEEDED
ON FARM PROBLEMS

To get correct picture of the need
for better farm and nome planning it
is necessary first to take note Of the
agriculture of the past. When the
land was new, a carefully planned
agriculture was not SO essential as it
is today. But if good planning and
careful work had been done then, the
present l'oposed program uld not
be so imperative.
Early neglect of land together with
careless cropping have done such great
damage that almost superhuman eff
fort is required now to stay the nav
ages Of land destruction that are NOV
ing forward at an alarming rate. Inc
costs of control are far greater today
than they would have been had the
work of repair been undertaken ear
lier. Delay in correcting mistakes is
always costly. The delay in this in
stance was caused by belief that
land would never wear out, belief
without foundation. Then, too, men
somehow believed that there was such
an abundance Of good land that it
was easier to take up new piece
than it was to keep an old one in re-
pair. Later years have also shown the
fallacy Of this belief.
The real purpose of planning pro-
gram should be to set in motion forces
that will definitely halt destruction
and start movement in the opposite
direction. To accomplish this end,
immediate action is required.
The problem to be attacked is
large. 1t will require the best efforts
Of every individual landowner and op.
orator if the work is to be acc6mp-
lished. It will require more than that.
Destruction has already reached a
point where the repair of certain
wreckage requires community and
even district action. The problem has
gotten beyond the control Of the in
dividual,
The problems concerned with re-
deeming land cannot be solved blind
ly The solution will require the best
information that is now available and
new information must still be develop
ed to meet the situation fully. To
make Roadway individual farmers
must enter intellectually into the
plans when they are once developed.
