never reached the high level
he achieved consistently four
years ago.
OF all the words spoken,
those from a stricken Hungary
in its death agony struck pity
and terror in the hearts Of
listeners. The Hungarians set
the standard for eloquence this
year, as they did for valor.
Memorable Words
Who can forget the words
sent out over the rebel-held
station Of Budapest. when the
briefly held freedom gained
from the uprising was flicker

Civilized people of the

Hungary, the last flames be-
gin to go out. The Soviet Army
is attempting to crush our
troubled hearts. Their tanks
and guns are roaring over
Hungarian soil. Our women
mothers and daughters-are
sitting in dread. They still
have terrible memories of the
Russian Armies in i945. Save
our souls. This word may be
the last from the last Hun
garian freedom station. Peo-
pie of the world listen to our
call. Help us-not with advice,
not with words, but with

Stunning Sea Story

THE WRECK OF THE
MARY DEARE, by Hammond
Innes (Knopf; $3.75) is one
novel that must not be al
lowed to go unmentioned in
the rush of late fall books. 1t
is a stunning sea story, with
suspense that tightens as it
goes along.
Readers of "Campbell's
Kingdom" and THE Naked
Land" will know Mr.. Innes as
a fine storyteller. The Wreck
of the Mary Deare' should
establish him as one of the
best in practice.
Here he has a character
worthy of Conrad. This is
Gideon Patch, who, like Lord
Jim, was cast ashore in q Near
East port in disgrace after
losing a ship. For II years he
haunted the shipping agencies
in vain. Finally he was offered
and grabbed a post as first
mate on the Mary Deare, a
battered old freighter which
had been cast up to rot in
China waters years ago. When
the captain died. Patch found
himself again in command.
But when one Of the owners.
strangely voyaging on the old
hulk. offered him money to
wreck her, what did he do?
And when John Sands.
young owner of a salvage
vessel cruising in the English
Channel. sighted the Mary
Deare ploughing along. her
engines going, but without a
soul visible on the bridge or
anywhere aboard, what hap
pened?
A Thriller
None of this can be dis
closed without running a
thriller for readers who
haven't discovered it.
1t is sufficient, I think, to
add that although more than
one ship founders in the gale
that lashes the Channel Is
