COUNT KAEOLYI'S ERROR. MISREAT) ENTENTE NOTE^ 4 Australian and N.Z. Cable Assn. '; Received 9.30 p.m., April 2nd. . - VHDNNA,' March 26. Colonel Vix, Commandant of a Military Mission to Buda Pest, states that Count Karplyi misinterpreted the "Entente's N6te regarding new lines of demarcation, which were intended to create a neutral zone between Hungarian and Roumanian troops, not to .establish a new political frontier. Received 11.5 p.m., April 2nd. LONDON, March 26. Prinoe Windischgratz, former Hungarian Food Minister, interviewed at Geneva; declared that! Count Karolyi's followers consisted mostly of nobles ruined by gambling. Karolyi made many concessions to the Communists until the latter overthrew the Government. The present Government only represents Buda and is composed mostly of Jews, but it is a more logical arrangement than Karolyi's phantom rule. Two thousand AngloFrench troops would be' sufficient to restore older in Hungary now, but the situation may be very different six months later. It would be unwise to send Czech, Roumanian or Serbian troops, whose presence would arouse national antipathy. M. Balakim, the Foreign Minister, was a journalist, and was a prisoner of war in Russia, where he became intimate with Lenin. It was reported that the latter provided funds for Belakun to publish rampantly Communist newspapers in Buda Pesth.
