The $4,000 quota is part of the

gone-about as many as are now
reaching Austria in q single day.
West European countries have
taken about $4,000. Britain and
France will stop the flow next
week after welcoming over 10000
each. Switzerland and Sweden
were nearing their limit. while
Belgium and Denmark had al
ready filled theirs.
$4,000 In Austria
Meanwhile. there were more
than 10000 in Austria, and the
figure was mounting again. Aus

be organizing and speeding the
movement inside Hungary itself
On his arrival at Schwechat
airport. Mr.. Swing refused to
predict whether the United
States would take any more of
the refugees. He did say that the
movement of $4,000 PAROLES
by United States military sea and
air-lift could be an important
precedent" for the future. The
$4,000 are going under a hitherto
little used provision Of the
United States immigration Law
which permits the President tt
admit as many people as he
wants.
Some officials were predicting
that by the end Of next week
virtually the only movement Of
refugees will be overseas-to the

Hungary Food
Plan Revised

VIENNA, Dec. 8 (P).-The Red
Cross has halted its main relief
distribution program in revolt
torn Hungary pending a change
from emergency to long-term
aid. a Red Cross spokesman said
today.
He admitted the stoppage,
first announced over Radio Bu-
dapest last week. also was due
partly to ineff1ciency of the
present distribution system.
Packagers Called in
The Red Cross is continuing
emergency medical deliveries and
the distribution of powdered
milk to young children and preg-
nant women. But it has called
in food-packing experts from
Switzerland to work out a new
parcel system which will give
Ia two-week diet of 900 calories
daily to about 100000 needy per-
sons in Budapest, he said.
New lists of persons requir-
ing priority aid, such as those
who have lost their homes or
families, are being drawn up by
the Hungarian Red Cross, which
handles the distribution under
International Red Cross control.
The spokesman said the pres
Ient distribution system had
proved "slow and inadequate. F"
He said that people had to queue
for hours to get supplies and that
the plan to open public kitchens
| in the Hungarian capital has
been dropped because Of lack
of facilities.
Charges Denied
He emphatically denied recent
charges by Radio Budapest that
Red Cross aid has been given to
persons not in need.
/ He stressed that the present
food situation in Budapest and
in most Of Hungary is not a very
serious one. He said at present
enough supplies are in the gov
eminent shops to provide the
population with its basic require
mentS.
However, by the middle Of jan
uary and for the rest of the win
ter the Red Cross expects the
supply situation in Hungary to
worSen considerably.
