oviet Union did not
threaten rocket war

Following is a section of the
actual text of a note sent by
the Soviet government to
Prime Ministers Eden and
Mollet dealing with what has
been referred to as a “threat
to use rocket bombs against
3ritain unilaterally. A read-
ing of the text shows that it
makes no such threat.

Daily press reports also dis-
torted the proposal regarding
joint Soviet-U.S. action to stop

the war against Egypt. This
was presented as though it
were bypassing the UN. The
statement reveals the con-
trary.

This section of Premier Bul-
ganin’s note reads:

Nothing can justify the fact
that the armed forces of Brit-
ain and France, two great
powers, members of the Secur-

ity Council, have-attacked a
country which only recently

gained its state independence
and which does not have suf-

ficient means for its defense,
In what position would
Britain have found herself if

she herself had been attacked
by more powerful states pos-
sessing every kind of modern
destructive weapon.

And there are countries now
which need not have sent a
navy or airforce to the coasts

of Britain, but could have
used other means, such as

rocket technique.
If rocket weapons had been

usd against Britain and France,
they would probably have
called this a barbarious action.

Yet in what way does the
inhuman attack made by the
forces of Britain and France
on the nearly disarmed Egypt
differ from this?

Being deeply
the course of events in the
Near and Middle East and
guided by the interests of pre-
serving universal peace, we
maintain that the British gov-
ernment must heed the voice
of common cause and put an
end to the war in Egypt.

concerned at

We call upon you, parlia-
ment, the Labor party, the
rade unions and the people
of Britain — stop aggression,

stop, the bloodshed.

War may spread to other
countries and become a third
world war.

The Soviet government has
already approached the United
States, submitting a proposal
to use naval and air forces,
together with other United
Nations members, to stop the
war in Egypt and to restrain
aggression.

We are fully determined to
crush the aggressors and re-
store peace in the East through
the use of force.

We hope at this critical mo-
ment you will display due
prudence and draw the cor-
responding conclusions from
this.

NEW GOVERNMENT

did not succeed in deceiving
the victorious proletariat.

“The government will be
forced to resign, the unmask-
ing of the counter- revolution-
aries is going on. The local
authorities were not capable
of keeping order.”

Radio Szombathely said “the
counter-revolution has been
crushed” all over the country.
It said the workers were to
have been misled by national-
ist slogans, but this failed,

“Attempts to win the work-
ers failed. The workers struck.
In the factories the workers’
councils and the fascists are
being purged. The country
belongs to the workers and
will not work for the foreign
exploiters.

“We don’t want the old pol-
ice system—we want a social-
ist nation, and we will have
it. The people have won.

“The Communist party again
leads the people.”

Prague reports said that
hundreds of Horthy officers
and members of the fascist
Arrow Cross organization were
in full flight toward the Aus-
trian border.

The reports added that. dur-
ing the past few days 150

their factories against the

Fascism in Hungary

would threaten all
MOSCOW

Mikhail Suslov, secretary of
the central committee of the
Soviet Communist party, said
here this week that “revival
of fascism would have meant
not only the end of people's
democracy in Hungary but a
threat to the other socialist
countries,” and the socialist
forces in Hungary took the
only correct step in setting up
a new party and appealing
for Soviet help “against the
black forces of reaction” und
to restore the socialist system.
