HUNGARIAN-BULGARIAN TRIALS OF CHURCHMEN TO BE DEBATED BY U.N.O.
NEW YORK, April 12 (Rec. 6 pm).—The United. Nations General Assembly today approved for inclusion in its agenda the trials of Hungarian Cardinal Mindszenty and the Bulgarian Protestant church leaders. Thirty voted in favour and seven against. Doctor Vladimir Houdek (Czechoslovakia) said that discussion of the trials would be interference in the domestic affairs of Hungary and Bulgaria and a gross infringement of the United Nations Charter. Houdek made a long attack on Mindszenty, alleging that the cardinal had been closely associated with the “Fascist” regime of Hungary between two world wars, and had worked for years to restore the Hapsburg dynasty.
