Hungarian conservative and banking circles tonight expressed concern that the pro-Nazi fascist youth organizations were preparing for a violent anti-Semitic campaign in Hungary.
The campaign is being carefully masked behind the current crusade of the fascists against bolshevism, these circles said. The anti-bolshevik agitation might result in widespread disorders and a result which would be the direct opposite of that planned by the fascists–the spread of communism in Hungary, it was added.
Pester Lloyd, semi-official organ of the Hungarian Foreign Office, expressed the sentiments of Hungarian conservatives tonight in an article charging that “anti-bolshevik agitation is only a pretext used by those seeking to spread disorders for their won profit.
“Hungary has only one choice – a prudent revolution conceived by Premier Koloman Daranyi or a revolution which will be forcibly bolshevik,” Havas News Agency.
