COUNTESS KAROLYI IN AMERICA
APPEAL FOR EXCLUSION.
(UNITED PRESS ASSOCIATION.—COPYRIGHT.) (AUSTRALIAN-NEW ZEALAND CABLE ASSOCIATION.) (Received 29th October, 11.50 a.m.) NEW YORK, 28th October. Officials of the National Security League are asking the Government to prevent the landing of the Countess Catherine Karolyi, wife of the former President of Hungary, who has just arrived to deliver a series of lectures. The Security League says she is a Bolshevik and a menace to American institutions. Up to a late hour to-day the Countess had not come ashore, and sixty policemen, sent at the request of the State Department, patrolled the wharf. Trouble is feared, in view of threatening letters the Countess .has received. Hundreds of Hungarians attended on the pier to greet her. Stanwood Menken, president of the league, said the Countess was known in Hungary as "Red Catherine," and was particularly dangerous because of her charming personality, beauty, and ability, as an actress, -to make an appeal to fashionable audiences. Mr. Menken declares that she told the Italian police she was 'coming to America to establish Communistic groups.
