States, for the Hungarian up
rising. He said the situation was
rapidly returning to normal and
insisted the U. N. should keep

The Soviet foreign minister
addressed the 79-nation General
Assembly after Hungarian For
eign Minister Imre Horvath
blasted the United States for al
legedly inspiring the rebellion.
Both Mr.. Shepilov and MIR
Horvath denied that any de-
portations were being carried Out
by the Russians. They protested
against any U. N. debate on a
Cuban resolution calling for al
end of the reported deportations
Mr.. Shepilov called the de-
Iportations "a myth" and "a
slanderous fabrication aimed at
poisoning the international at
n1osphere.
gOn the question Of the with
drawal Of Soviet troops from
Hungary, the Soviet foreign
minister said:
1.-THE Soviet troops, by agree
ment with J. the government of
Hungary, will be withdrawn
from Budapest as soon as the

"At the same time the Soviet
