On Red Seizure Of
Postwar Hungary

CLEVELAND, Aug. 27.-Eight
more witnesses come before a
House subcommittee on Com
munist aggression today to add
their stories to testimony that
rape. beatings and book-burnings
attended the Reds postwar seiz-
ure of control in Hungary.
In an ornate Federal court
room, Representative Bentley,
Republican, of Michigan, sub
committee chairman, and Rep
resentative Feighan, Cleveland
Democrat, listened yesterday
while seven persons recalled
painful memories of atrocities,
persecution and deception.
Concludes Today.
The subcommittee, which
came here after session in
New York. concludes its Cleve-
land stand today with these per-
sons among the scheduled wit
nesseS.
Mr.. and Mrs. Peter Kapus of
Midland, Tex, who say they fed
Hungary to escape persecution.
Francis Wagner, a former
diplomat and an employe of the
Library of Congress, who will
present several documents deal
ing with the Communists blood
less coup in Hungary.
George Perczel, Clevelander
who formerly was a Budapest
detective and who says he en-
dured daily beatings for two and
a half years while he was held
for the murder of a man who is
still alive.
The Soviets had planned the
postwar government of Hungary
even before that nation surren-
dered in World War II, DR.. Geza
Teleni told the subcommittee
yesterday. He spoke of his fight
as Minister of Education to keep
the Russians from dominating
Hungary's schools.
Doctor Tells of Plea.
DR.. Teleni, 43, now a professor
of political geography at the
University of Virginia, said he
was one of three patriots who
sneaked through Gestapo lines
to petition allied forces in Mos
COW for surrender. Once there,
he said, the three had no choice
but to sign an agreement offered
them by Foreign Minister Molo-
tov.
Even before the Russians took
over they began loading the
universities" with Communists
and fellow travellers, DIR. Teleni
said. He told of plot to Infect
the tools of doctors" so patients
died from infection and the en-
suing public indignation ode
stroyed some Of the finest doctors
at the University of Budapest"
Two of yesterdays witnesses
wore DISCUSSES to protect their
families in Hungary from retalia-
ton. One said he was herded
into gang labor on Russian jet
runways. The other said Red
soldiers many times" raped his
daughter, who later went insane
and killed herself.

Chinese Reds Raid
Small Chang Island
Just Off Mainland
BY The Associated Press

TOKYO, Aug. 27.-Communist
China today announced small
scale hit-and-run raid on
Quemoy, a Nationalist held
island near the mainland coast.
There was no indication that it
was a prelude to the Reds loudly
heralded threat to invade For
moSa.
A Peiping radio broadcast
said 40 Communist soldiers made
two separate landings on
Quemoy Monday night, killing
IL Nationalist soldiers before
pulling back to the mainland Is
miles away.
Nationalist sources In Taipeh
said the raid was one of several
staged by the Reds in recent
weeks to capture prisoners. They
said one Nationalist soldier was
captured and the Reds lost one
man taken prisoner.
U. S. Officials Unimpressed.
United States officials in WASH
ington labeled the raid no more
than a skirmish and pointed out
that even the conquest of Que
moy would leave the Reds far
from their goal of '1iberating"
Formosa.
The Nationalist stronghold lies
100 miles across the Formosa
Strait, guarded by the United
States 7th Fleet and an Ameri-
can equipped army OF 100000.
For several weeks Peiping has
been broadcasting almost daily
threats to Hibernate" Formosa
and wipe out the Nationalist re-
gime of Chang Kai-shek.
In advance of any invasion,
the Reds would be expected to
seize a chain of NationaliSt-held
offshore islands running from
Quemoy north to the Tachens.
some 200 miles northwest of
Formosa.
Red Attack Discounted.
However, United States mill
tary experts have discounted the
possibility of a Red attack on
Formosa and have pointed out
that there has been no large
scale Red troop buildup along
the coast opposite the Nationalist
island.
Diplomats say Communist
China is busy at home with
floods which have made an esti-
mated Is million homeless and
upset Peiping's five-year indus
trialization plan.
United States sources in To-
kyo said today they regarded the
Quemoy attack and recent
threats to invade Formosa as
propaganda campaign aimed at
the forthcoming Manila confer
ence to map q Southeast Asia
security agreement.

Flicker Of Old Spirit
Sill SmoIders in
Communist Shanghai
By John Ridley

soH00H Suut tSsc1soPn @oUesPonoeM
SHANGHAI. Aug. ~ B.-
Perhaps Shanghai can no longer
be called the Paris of the East.
But q flicker remains.
There are still a few night
clubs. Restaurant meals are not
so austere as in Peiping, and
people do not seem to be so OPP
pressed by the necessity to be
always firmly Marxist.
Last night ! took a swift tour
around the city. visiting places
I knew before what is tiresome-
ly described as the liberation. !"
Although Shanghai, too. has
been disciplined, as Peiping has,
into q duller pattern, it never
theless still has some of its old
character.
American Style English.
Most walters and shopkeepers
speak English with a marked
American accent. But at least
they will speak, whereas in the
North even the most fluent Eng
lish linguists demand an inter-
prefer.
British landmarks in Shanghai
are fast disappearing. The old
Shanghai Club, which it was said
had the longest bar in the world
has become a branch Office of
some ministry.
The Cathay Hotel, once owned
by the Sassoons, is another
government office as is the Palace
Hotel opposite on Marking Road.
The French Club, once the joy
of all European visitors, has been
closed and is being used as an
entertainment and reception
center by the Chinese for
important guests.
Toast by Attlee.
Clement Attlee, Labor Party
leader. toasted British Chinese
friendship and trade last night
at a banquet given by Chen vi.
mayor of Shanghai, at the Park
Hotel.
MIR. Attlee discoursed on the
traditional friendship between
the two countries but made no
mention of British businessmen,
numbering about 100, still in
Shanghai.
They are waiting anxiously to
wind up their businesses here
and to leave the country. They
have nothing to do except to
meet Chinese officials almost
daily to try to prove they no
longer have anything more to
give than the property and in
terests of the firms they repre-
sent.
