Make your check or money order payable to, and mail to: Bethlen Press, Inc. P.O. Box 637, Ligonier, PA 15658 As 1984 is drawing to a close, we extend to our readers our wish for a Happy New Year and a Merry Christmas. We also wish to thank our benefactors who through the year helped us with their special donation to help us carry on, knowing full well that the publication of an ethnic magazine is not a money-making proposition. Our thanks to our subscribers and advertisers for their patronage. In the last decade we Were able, despite all obstacles, to publish our magazine every month except for two occasions. This October and November was the second time we combined two issues. Our faith is placed in our Hungarian-American community that a publication like this will continue to have their support, as shown by our ever expending subscribership. Please help us to gather at least another thousand subscribers in 1985. A “gift subscription” for your children, friends or relatives is an ideal Christmas gift. If there is a Hungarian Society in the Pittsburgh area called “Magyar Polgári Szövetség”, we would like to hear from it. If any one of our readers is familiar with this organization, please convey the information to us. Some of our friends have turned against us for printing the “Travel to Hungary” page. It is true that the American tourist dollars will help the Hungarian government, but it also helps the people. Even if the Hungarians stood in bread lines the Russian soldiers would still be on Hungarian soil. Well-fed children in Budapest is more important to us than to play an empty anti-communist role in Cleveland. Who can champion America in Hungary better than an American-Hungarian. There is a whole generation there that has never known or experienced anything but the present form of government. Hungary was extremely successful, compared to the other captive countries, in liberalizing the system. She has 11 joint ventures with western companies; the latest one is the giant U.S. drug company, Eli Lilly. A chemical plant is just getting off the ground. The close contact between the managers of these major industrial complexes and their western partners will be significant in due time as new leaders emerge. We hope for slow but steady pull away from the Russian orbit for that unfortunate country. We are gratified with the number of letters we have received lately. You have proved that you like this magazine and look forward to it each month; we will do our best to live up to your expectations. A HAPPY AND PROSPEROUS 1985 TO ALL! Bob Chomos FROM To our readers: Because of the great number of letters we have received, we had to edit most to save space. In case yours is not included we will print it in a later issue. — Editor. Dear Mr. Pulitzer: I think that it is a good idea for you to cutback on the New Jersey section in order to give us more reading matter of interest. Keep up the good job. Joseph Kemeny Phoenix, Arizona * * * Dear Editor; Enclosed is a check for $30. Please renew my subscription for another year and a gift subscription.
