 "Horthys attempt to hand over Hungary and the Hungarian people to Bolshevism was foiled in Its last hour because the Hungarian people refused to follow Horthy to be- trayal," radio Budapest said.
 "The people throughout Hungary, especially in Budpest, rose to pro- test the betrayal. The German com- mands and authorities have been instructed to assist in the protection of those loyal to the alliance"

 The conflicting orders of the day broadcast by the Budapest radio were expected to confuse the Hun- garian armed forces still further paving the way for speedy Soviet conquest of the remainder of Hun- gary.
 There was no immediate con- firmation from Allied sources of Horthy's announcement that Hun. gary had accepted allied armistice terms, though there had been a number of previous reports that the Budapest government had requested and received such terms.
