The largest single Jewish refugee group since the tar’s end reached here today when 1,200 Hungarians arrived in the Austrian capital.
In smaller units, the refugees had illegally crossed the Hungarian-Czechoslovak frontier and then gathered at Bratislava, capital of Slovakia. Thence, in a caravan of a number of busses, the Hungarians drove the 40 miles to Vienna. The unexpected mass overflowed two camps here for Jewish displaced persons. The 1,200 Jews are expected to leave soon for Israel.
