I 8. oldal Detroiti MAGYAR ÚJSÁG — Detroit HUNGARIAN NEWS 1973. március 9. NGLISH SECTION EDITORIAL THE LESSON OF INDIFFERENCE This is the last time this Editorial is written, and as far as it can be determined, no more ENGLISH SECTION will appear in the Detroit HUNGARIAN NEWS. As a matter of fact the paper will be published by the Kárpát Publishing Co., of Cleveland as of the next copy of the Detroit HUNGARIAN NEWS. When the Detroit Hungarian News changed hands in mid 1971 the new publisher, the Metropolitan Hungarian News, Inc. was determined to open the door of American-Hungarian views to the English speaking second and third generation Hungarians and anyone else who is interested to learn about the culture, the traditions and the aspirations of the Hungarian community in this country. The following announcement wa3 and remains the printed testimony to that aim. Good By and Greetings After 61 years of faithful, sometimes hopless, but always dependable service to the Hungarian community, the Detroit Hungarian News arrived to a new milestone. The paper has to say “good bye” to the memory of Mr. Julius Fodor, the founder of the newspaper, and to his untiringly motivated widow Mrs. Julius Fodor, without whose efforts this newspaper could have folded long time ago. The FODORS gave an honorable service to our Community and the Hungarians of Detroit and Vicinity undoubtedly join with us in expressing our heartfelt thanks to her for the pleasure of being able to read the Hungarian Newspaper week after week, year after year. The new publishers, the METROPOLITAN HUNGARIAN NEWS, Inc. are local Hungarians who are devoted to the task of continuing publication in the best tradition of unbiased information and news reporting. The Detroit Hungarian News will remain unswervingly loyal to the Constitution of the United States and is pledged to serve the universal interests of the Hungarian Community and the Hungarian people here and overseas. We extend a friendly hand to all Hungarians and invite everybody concerned to join up in rendering service to the Hungarian Culture, the Hungarian Heritage and the present and future generations of American-Hungarians in order that we can rejuvenate our dynamic ethnic values in the Community. The PUBLISHERS of the DETROIT HUNGARIAN NEWS However, after over a year and a half, the Editor found surprisingly vivid non-Hungarian Interest in our enterprise, but very meager one on the part of the Hungarians in general. As a matter of fact, there was a definite trend which shoved interest growing as high as the White House and the Department of State in Washington as well as the State House in Lansing, but very little if anything from Hungarian sources. In short, we found a general, unshake able disinterest in Hungarian affairs when we reached out to those who could have helped this unique Hungarian effort in the United States. The lesson had to be drawn after 20 months of struggle to keep this 63 year old Hungarian publication from extinction, because nobody should have expected that a few people should carry the burden of editing and publishing a Hungarian Newspaper in America. Therefore the Metropolitan Hungarian News, Inc. the publisher of the Detroit Hungarian News had no choice but part with an idea and with the paper, and from here on the Kárpát Publishing Co. will do everything possible to provide a Hungarian language newspaper to those Hungarians who still care... The Editor and the Publisher are extending a final farewell to those who gave their support, and hope for a complete reversal of this intolerable indifference toward the independent Hungarian idea and just aim3 both here and abroad.

He is out of the country without any lifting of the infamous sentence by the Stalinist court of Hungary. He had left his beloved homeland maybe forever. His diseased dated 1956?

Since one third of the Hungarian Nation is living outside the confines of modern day Hungary, does the removal of Mindszenty’s presence mean a better understanding between s ‘noA IsSjoj I IPHS »M jw “fT^miidizTuei ivnioxiaa Convention of American- Hungarian Doctors The Second Annual Convention of the Hungarian Medical Association of America was held in the Statler-Hilton Hotel, Cleveland, Ohio, between November 26-27, 1971.

Among the stumbling blocks are mentioned: an agreed definition of Central Europe, the area selected by both sides for force reductions; the kinds of armaments to be discussed at a conference; who would participate in the discussions; a common denominator to measure troops, armaments, etc. (a soviet division numbers ; 10.000 men, while an U.S. divi- j, sion is at 16,000 strength —‘I wouldn’t it be nice to reduce j 20.000 Soviet troops ff>r every 32.000 U.

William J. Scherle of Iowa delivered a speech in Congress castigating the negotiations currently under way between the United States and the Government of Hungary to return the Holy Crown of St. Stephen-. Congressman Scher1 e is quoting the poem: “HUNGARY, 1956” — by Lawrence J. Hogan which according -to Rep. Scherle “one need read no further than these -lines to understand why it would be a rank betrayal of the Hungarian nation to surrender the sacred symbol of her sovereignty to the oppressive dictatorship which now rules her land.” The lonely voice of Rep. Scherle on the 2nd day, of November 1971 is a tragic reminder for all of us Hungiaria-ns, who listened to the radii, were watching the television and read the papers in November of 1956. The futility of- those days cast a long shadow; on us today, to wit here is the last part of “HUNGARY, 1936”, by L. J.
