1921 59 No. 51. 342/pol. The Hungarian Chargé d'affaires in Vienna, Mr. Masirevich, to the Minister for Foreign Affairs, Dr. Gratz. The French Minister in Vienna

1 warned me that, according to his information, a rumour had been systematically spread lately from Belgrade and Prague that the Hungarian Government had established a school for Bolshevist propaganda, in which agitators were trained with the object of stirring up a Bolshevist revolution in Yugoslavia and Czecho-Slovakia, to be used by Hungary for her own purposes. These rumours are spread with the obvious intention of arousing mistrust of us on the Bolshevist question, the only one in which we may count upon the sympathy of France. It would seem advisable to mention these malicious rumours to the Allied representatives in Budapest, especially to Mr. Fouchet, and thereby forestall the campaign of lies which has been started against us.

2 No. 52. 30/res. pol. The Representative of the Hungarian Government in Paris, Mr. Praznovszky, to the Minister for Foreign Affairs, Dr. Gratz. General Tánczos reports: I explained our plans to General Weygand. In reply he pointed out that the creation of an anti-bolshevik bloc under French leadership would have to be approved by the other Allied Powers. In view of the attitude of Great Britain towards bolshevism, this approval would not be easy to obtain. General Code telegram No. 15. [TRANSLATION] VIENNA, January 19, 1921. Code telegram No. 31.
