The Hoax OrTte
By István Szőke
ANY METHOD is góod enough for those Western circles and their mercenaries wlio would destroy the "spirit öf Camp Dávid'*. Ali the different shades Öf reactionary emigré cliques of all nationalities have but one common ground and hopecold war with the prospéct to maké it hot. The interrelation of these two things gives the expla-nation to the ugly fact that the fake "Hungárián question-' was again before the General Assembly of the UN,
Before dealingr with somé features of this criminal attempt, I would like to draw attentíon to the foHowing three historical facts:
1. Tl» Faris peaee treaty with Hungary after World War Two declared it to be the duty of the Soviet Union — together with her western allies, Including Canada — to help the Hungárián govem-ment tp uproot fascism and reaction and insure tíie donocratic development of that countiry. Qnite opposite to this, the Western powers with the 1956 counter-revolution in Hungary tried to restore the old reactionary-fascist régime there to further their aggressive position in West Berlin.
Who are the ones violating treaties left and right, and the thieves calling others "thief'?!
2. Ihe Sovlet Vnlon was obliged, under the Warsaw Pact too, to give help on the caU of the legitiniate Hungárián govemment to supress ttie Westem-directed counter-revolution; and since that. In a much more democratic and free election then Ifamgary and the West had ever known, the Hungárián people overWhélmingly endorsed the present socialist r^me in Hungary, as a corrected and further developed continuation of the socialist ragime up te 1956, in the socialist community of states streching from Beriin, Prague and Budapest to Peking and Fyengyang ~ led by the Soviet Union.
Who are those stalwarts of "hiunan rights" and "humanitarian-Ism" Who refuse the right to vote from millions in "théií" colonies and in their own countries, who exterminate thousands in countries struggling for independence, segregate and persecüte grreat masses in their own countries?!
3. It is practícaily unknown to the generál puldlc that It was the counter-revolntlonary Horttiy gang and the Western powers who Bigned the Trianon treaty of 1921 dismembeiing Hungaiy (taldng three-fourth of her terrltory and over haíf of her population áway); that it was the Soviet Union vi^ch NEVER recognized Chat treaty; that the Hungárián led army defended the whole of Hungaiy in 1919 (although the Hungárián Republic of €<ounclls was ready for peaceful solutipns with hl»r neighbours), and it was the Horthy gang who conducted aggressive reyisionist policy against tiie neighbours and in 1941, as a lesser partner of Hitler, attacked títe Soviet Union — the only countty which never reoognized ^e dismember-ment of Hungary!
Can anybody understand this without recognizing that the his-tory of class society is the history of class struggles? However, impe-xialists in generál do understand this, only somé of them are greater loosers than others.
It is necessary to keep all this in mind to sée the hjrpoctacy and stubbomess of the stalwarts of the "Hungárián question".
* ■ ♦ *■ <^-■■----_
On the eve of trotting out again this mr^t stubbomly guarded "as-set" of the cold war strategists and traitor emigré cliques, a for-mer $l7.0O0-a-year secretaty of the so-called "UN Committee on Hungary" — has simply "disappeared on Monday, Nov. 23.
The man, Bang^oisen, 50, a Danish national, drew International attentíon two years ago when he refused to surrender 81 names of Hungárián selected deserters who had given so-called "secret testimony" in a so-called "inquiry" for that committee "investigating" the 1956 tiprising in Hungary — an *\qnrising** sümidated, support-ed and directed by U.S., British, Ctetnnaa and other WesteA agen-cles» Ittcludiiitg tiiei Allan OiAes-led CJ^A. and jOie Badio Flree Eu-
Buig-Jensen seen Mon-
day móming, Npv. ^53,"when he
suspended from his job, then was discharged in July, 1958..."
One of his lawyers in 1958, Róbert Morris, said last week aböut Bang-Jensen that "he had sMne ve^ important secrets ... I have told what I know to the Senate internál security sub-committee and to the Federal Burean of Investl-gation".
There is a Himgarian saying: You don't trust the dog to £ruard the bacon!
Under different circiunstances and in different capacity, Bang-Jensen is just as much a victim of cold war policy, as were (among many others) James Forrestal, former U.S. secretary of defense, who on May 22, 1949, jumped through a window to his death, and-Í>r. Herbert Norman, a Cana-dian diplomát, who on April 4, 1957, jumped to his death from
intemational relief organization", said an AP-report from New York. "His body was discovered in Queens Borough's Alley Pond Park, about a mile from his home at Laké Success, Long Island. A .25 caliber automatic was in his right hand, a buliét wound in the right sice of his head... The body has been in the woods more than 24 hours. It was discovered by a man walking his dog... A note addressed to his wife, Helen, beg-ged her forgiveness and said he had been dispondent over hiis UN diKiculties... Mrs. Bang-Jensen went into seclusion when she leam-ed of her husband's death."
The rest of the story says that •the sealed üst of name^' of those 81 who had given "secret testimony" in 1957, later 'Was bumed on the UN roof in the presence of ofT&cial witnesses. Subsequently,

■ * '■■■^ ■ '■';■■«' The UN's "committee on Huh-gaiy". Sir Leslie Murird of New Zealand as a "speciál UN rejpré-sentative" in this matter, their charges and the i^óle conoocted 'Hungárián question^ is just as fake and Ülegal today — all being intérferences in the domestic af-fairs of a member State, after en-gineéring théré^ a counter-revolution -—aa íbey were In 1957 and 1958."^
They are éven möré distuibing. harmful and crinünal now, becatise they are xúmed against the fliaw-ii^ out of oold war and the hope-ftd development of intemational relatifm, whk^ is thé above-all interest of all humanity and eac^ nation and indiyiduaJ; and because after the liqvtidbition of the wórst element of counter-revolution and after the rehabüi tation of huge matéria! damages caused by it, the govemment of the People'a Republic of Hungary has given all the assurances of normál develop-ments, including a wide amnesty and a new civil code to insure more consequent socialist justice.
Hungary alr^dy at the beginn-ing of 1957 invited Secretary-Ge-neral Hammarskjöld of the UN to visit the country. (but not somé "special representatives" to "in-vestigate"), and i^ce opened its { gates to Wide tonrism.
This is why the stalwarts of cold war this time had to resort to somé additional preparatory campaign to be able to drag again the fake "Hungárián question" before the UN Assembly.
This additional fake issue be-came Ihe concocted case of "150 Hungárián students held for exe-cution" in connection supposedly with the 1956 uprising. Its origina-tor was a certain Dr. Béla Fábián, a Naad agent in Auschwitz death camp acainst his fellow-Jews, who since became American Citizen and according to recent Reuters re-port is in the service of the AI|an Dulles-Ied CIA, the Central Intel-ligence Agency — an intemational
U.S. spy service. This character is so widely repjiidiated, that even the ,'openly operating, Washington supported, "Hungárián Committee" (Monsignor Varga, Ferenc Nagy, Tibor Eckhardt etc.) do not dare to deal with him openly. » * »
However, the fabricated story was distributed to the sensation-hxmgry North American press and to the whole "free world". Ed Suliivan of the TV, the CBC-TV, the CKEY óf Toronto and many others did their bit to whip up a "pro-test" campaign. The Hungárián news service of the Free Europe Committee Inc. of New Tork, in its own "independent" and "authentic" form distributed it to thé over 50 old and new Hungárián reactionary-fascist papers from Vienna around half the world. A pressure protest campaign was
<»ganized in the USA and Canada especially aniong high school aod umversity students. ^ About the New York situation the N^ Guardian pro^íí newsweekly said in part: "On Nov 12 Georo-e Castka, a Board of Edu^ cation official who works with stu-dent governing organizations told the GUARDIAN that the Stafe Dépt. had okayed the student pro. tests and said it wanted as mwA pubHcity as possible about tbo matter. Asked if the State Dept had CMnfírihéd the figure of 150 students involved, Castka said he was told U.S. offlcials had teamed that ^<Hne" execution had occar-ed and that "somé* other youths weare. awalting execution.''
Further on: He said the Eoard of Bducation itself had "solid in-formation" that 20 youths were involved, ranging in age from 17 to 21. Then he said: "Monsignor Varga, you know, has been very ac^ve in Ihis^ and he knows a great deal about what's going oa in Hungaiy."

We áll know how External Af-fairs Bfinister Green got caught between his sober "no Information" statemnt and the growing domestic and U.S. pressure campaign to become one of the spon-sors of the fake "Hungárián question".
JEven the more objective Globe and Mai: gives in to the pressure when on Nov. 30 editorially says —- while recognizing that the de-bate will achieve nothing — that "the UN debate on Hungary is necessa^ and useful"; necessary to keep up "dignity and honor", iiseful if it will be capable to pro-duce "somé reasoned considera-tion of the areas and circumstan-ces where the UN crosses national borders". -
We í.gree that the debate will produce nothing good, it Is doing already great harm to the hope-ful development of intemational relations which is the utmost interest öf all peoples. The only good what can come out of it can be the recognition by mOre leaders ^d the masses that with cold war methods you cannot develop peaceful coexistence.
For democrats, patriots and progressives in generál the lesson is again that for peaceful solu-tions and cooperation we have to widen and strenthen the struggle against those opposing them.
