We commended Stephen Huzianyi for his alertness in detecting the work of propagandist hidden under scientific appearances and for having taken the trouble of communicating his objections to the editor of that encyclopedia. That his action was not in vain, is shown by the following reply of Editor-in-chief A. H, McDannald: “Dear Mr. Huzianyi: Thank you for your letter of January third corceroing the article by Professor Roucek on Hungary in the 1946 AMERICANA ANNUAL, which I have read with interest and some concern. First I must tell you that in selecting authors for articles on foreign nations we must rely to large extent on the advice of American educators, and several of these have recommended Professor Roucek to us as a Czech who was an authoritative writer on Balkan nations. I realize that it is particularly difficult to obtain an absolutely impartial and objective teratment of any Balkan nation by a native author whether writing about his own or a neighbor country. Yet, when a native, like Professor Roucek, has been for some years living in a foreign country and associated in historical studies with colleagues who regard propagandist history as the most contemptible kind of dishonesty, one may, I think, presume that he will make every effort to preserve a strict impartiality. I certainly believe he has made that attempt. You will notice that Professor Roucek is not the author of our article on Hungary in the ENCYCLOPEDIA AMERICANA, although he has written our encyclopedia article ón Rumania. I would be most interested to have your views, as a man of Hungarian descent, with regard to a qualified American, or an English-writing Hungarian scholar whom I mght invite to prepare this article for a future iS' sue of the AMERICANA AN NUAL. Certainly, the author of such an article should be expected to have a warm sympathy for his subject. Sincerely yours, A. H. MCDANNALD Editor-in-Chief” Fellow-member Huzianyi was quick to grasp the opportunity afforded him by editor McDannald’s encouraging reply to which he responded in the following letter: February 27, 1947 “Dear Mr. McDannald: Thank you very much for your reply of January 20th. It has just now been possible for me to concentrate on my correspondence. I did not want to delay too long answering your kind letter of January 11th and with limited time it was not possible for me to delve more deeply into the business of suggesting qualified authorities to write on the subject of Hungary for the AMERICANA ANNUAL. ...However, there are, in my opinion, two excellent professors, both of Hungarian birth, who are acknowledged authorities on the Magyar nation. They are: Prof. Tibor Kerekes 839 — 17th St., N. W. Washington, D. C. Dr. Tibor Cholnoky 19 East 80 Street New York City, N. Y. Perhaps you may also want to get in touch with one not of Magyar origin: Prof. Watson Kirconnell 31 Mount Royal Avenue Hamilton, Ontario, Canada. Prof. Kerekes is professor of history at Georgetown University, while Prof. Kirkonnell heads the Classic Philology Department at MacMaster University. Of course, on any subject, Hun« gary included, only one should write who is known to be an expert on the subject matter — yet one whose personal interests will not conflict with clear, honest thought on the subject matter. In the case of Roucek, it can be pointed out that he is, at best, an exponent of the Czech cause and known as such, to both his political adherents and opponents, Prof. Roucek might be, as re. commended to you, “an authori. tative writer on Balkan nations,” yet that does not entitle him, by the least stretch of the imagination to write on a NON-Balkar nation — Hungary. Hungary is in Central Europe. So-called “experts” of recent years, using th{ newspapers and selected periodicals (for the benefit of America! educators) as vehicles for an insidious hate campaign against the Magyar people, have given unsuspected readers a lot of untruth, calling Hungary a Balkar nation. A glance at the map ol the Balkan Peninsula and ever Balkan history will illustrate otherwise. For example, the Encyclopedii Britannica 14th Edition had thie to say on page 978 in Volume 2: “Balkan Peninsula — Since the early 19th century this name has been given to the most easterly of the three southern prolongations of the European Continent. Balkan ii a Turkish word meaning moun tain ...” Under the same general head ing, but with the sub-headin{ (on page 984) of “Peoples ane Types of Culture” can be reae this: “Apart from alien elements such as Armenians and Jews six stocks seem to be repre sented in the peninsula, o: whom five show national con sciousness. These six are th Albanians; the Vlachs or no madic shepheards; the Greeks the Serbs, who form the mail Slav element . . . the Bulgars and the Turks.” Another work, the New Inter national Encyclopedia, 2nd Edi tion, 1935, writes thus on pag 161: “BALKAN STATES. Th collective term applied to thos states which make up the Bal kan peninsula in southeaster Europe, north and west of th Aegean Sea. See Albania, Bui garia, Greece, Jugo-Slavia, Ru mania, and Turkey.” Continued on page 8.
