HUNGARIAN UTOPIA.
BROTHERHOOD OF MAN
Received April 9,( 11.40 a.m. LONDON, April 39
The “Daily News’ ” Budapest correspondent, describing freak Utopia, says the mob raided the Budapest prison and released the Communist Belakun. A Soviet republic was proclaimed half an hour later. Belakun was appointed Minister for Foreign Affairs. He revised the communising of industry, and ordered bath-rooms in dwellings to be placed, at the disposal of all children, the proprietors supplying hot water, soap, and towels.
The correspondent, interviewed Belakun. who is aged thirty-three, and was formerly Lenin’s confidential agent. He says everyone willing -to work should receive State wages, and live decently. He is unconcerned on. frontier questions because he takes a stand on the platform of universal brotherhood. All leadership should be handed to the workers; rich people must cease to exist. The correspondent concludes: Hitherto the wealthy and middle classes have not suffered- from the upheaval.
