NAZIS IN HUNGARY
LEADER SENT TO OAOL INCITEMENT TO OVERTHROW CONSTITUTION. APPEALS AGAINST SENTENCE. By Telegraph.—Press Association. Copyright. (Recd This Day, 12.35 p.m.) LONDON, June 2. The “Daily Telegraph’s” Budapest correspondent says that Major Szalasi. the Hungarian Nazi leader, was convicted of incitement to overthrow the constitutional and social system and was sentenced to two months' imprisonment. Both the Public Prosecutor and Szalasi appealed against the sentence. Szalasi told the court that he had no intention of launching a revolution, but desired to realise his aims legally.
A cablegram from Budapest on May 20 stated that Major Szalasi was sentenced to a fortnight’s imprisonment after the publication of a pamphlet advocating a plebiscite on the question of provision in the Constitution for a Nazi regime.
