France or to territories under French, English authority took place in two phases: the first phase lasted from the end of September 1939 to the autumn of 1940, the second phase lasted to the autumn of 1941. In the period mentioned the emissaries of the Polish emigre government (the military attaché of the Budapest embassy, the Evacuation Office (Ewa), and the staff of the Polish Military Representation in Hungary), evacuated about 32 000 soldiers from Hungary. Out of the 72 000 soldiers of the Polish Army formed in France 25% were Polish soldiers evacuated with the silent approval of the Hungarian Government. Because of Frances military defeat, in the second phase of the evacuation (Ewa-B) Syria and Palestine became the gathering place of the Poles, through Greece and Cyprus. Until the autumn of 1941 a lot more than 10 000 Polish soldiers and volunteers were evacuated from Hungary. The study provides ample data and reasons to show that, though Hungary joined the three-power pact, Hungarian foreign policy and the society gave shelter for the citizens of Poland, allied with the Western powers, who escaped to Hungary until the German occupation of the country. Through the refugees to Hungaiy the Hungarian foreign policy never closed the „ window opening" towards the western allies. Hungary handled the cause of the Polish refugees/internees with political circumspection and humanity, going far beyond what was stated in the Hague and Geneva conventions. László Szántó: The Self-Dissolution of the Workers' Council of Kaposvár Iron Works After the armed suppression of the 1956 revolution only the workers' councils were tolerated for some time by the communist party restoring its power. These new organs of working-class power tried to protect the achievements of the revolution first in the political, then in the economic and social spheres. This fact and the political circumstances of their elimination, cessation are shown very expressively in the minutes dated 6th March 1957, which recorded the events happening at the dramatic meeting of the Iron Works Council. The press attack against the president and some members of the workers' council (among them the former president of the county revolutionary council arrested on the previous day and convicted later) induced the body to call the party leaders of Kaposvár to account if, according to the promises, the workers' council had the right and possibility to take part in the management of the company, to represent the economic and social interests of the workers. On the basis of the minutes the reader may form a clear picture of the brave behaviour of the workers' leaders and the insincere attitude of the town's party leader avoiding straight answers.
