NEW HUNGARIAN WAY his court. He spent the last years of his life in Rodosto, Turkey. While in France he donated the remainder of his once huge treasure for the colonization of French Louisiana that was to become a part of the United States.-Hdp 'Poliö' if Join the, MARCH OF DIMES Jcuuuvuj 3 Si MIKLÓS TÓTH’s (Washington, D. C.) article summarizes the outstanding Hungarian sport accomplishments in 1954. Hungary was placed second in the soccer and in the European athletics championships. The college world championship, in which all kinds of sports were represented also went to Hungary. The water polo, the kayak and the swimming championship of Europe, as well as the pentatlon was also won by Hungarian colors. Such outstanding achievements have placed Hungary in a high esteem in the eyes of the sport world, but at the same time also indicate the tremendous importance the communists place on sports and its use as a means to obtain fame and recognition. ★ ★ ★ DR. FERENC KÁLDY and DR. ISTVÁN FOLTINY (both of New York, N. Y.) present two viewpoints concerning the theory which deals with the alleged relationship of the Hungarians and Sumirs. The theory has been promoted by Dr. Ida Bobula and received rather strong criticism in scientific circles. Dr. Káldy challenges a criticizing article by Dr. Foltiny (New Hungarian Way, Vol. 6, No. 5-6), and this challenge is followed by Dr. Foltiny’s proper answer. ★ ★ ★ The WORLD FORUM by András Marton and László Mérlaky presents a brief resumé of the political highlights of the last year, as viewed from the perspective of America's capital. The case of the 11 American airmen jailed by Red China has touched off already an international protest and may have grave political implications. The idea of “peaceful coexistence” is still in its deliberative stage. Although it started as a clever Soviet propaganda move, this idea has captured some of the leading minds of the Western world. An organization, called Little United Nations, has been formed by emigres of nine Soviet dominated countries. If properly organized and effectively managed, this group may well start a new epoch in the relationship of the various nations which are partaking in this new venture. The World Forum also outlines the principal gains and losses of the year’s political events which effected the balance of power between East and West, and which may have wide reaching consequences in the struggle for the future of the world. ★ ★ ★ Our literary section features a short story by ZOLTÁN SZITNYAI, and poems by FERENC FÁY, DEZSŐ SZABÓ and BÉLA VÍG. — 58 —
