SOCIALISATION OF HUNGARY.
ALLIANCE WITH RUSSIA
/Australian and N.Z. Cable Association)
London, March 28. The "Daily Chronicle's" Berlin correspondent states that the German Austrian Cabinet has recognised the Hungarian Soviet Government.
Polgar, its Ambassador at Vienna, described rapid socialisation of factories, workshops, and houses in Hungary. The theatres have been ordered to give several free performances for the workers weekly. The revolution Avas primarily aimed at freeing tho proletariat and landless peasants. He added: "If the bourgeoisie are with us it is because they have no alternative. We are closely allied militarily and politically with the Russian Government. That alliance is a defensive one."
Foreign missions and troops are leaving Budapest. There are no signs of reprisals by the Entente, and it is doubtful if the latter will seriously attempt to embark against such a worldlike government of Bolshevism.
