HUNGARY ALOOF
OPPOSED TO BLOC (Unitea Press Assn.—Elcc. Tel. Copyright; LONDON, Feb. G The Budapest newspaper Pester Lloyd publishes an attack against Rumania and the Balkan Conference, inspired by the Hungarian Government. This is not regarded, however, as portending a change in Hungary’s foreign policy. it is stated in the article that Hungary never favoured a Balkun-Danube bloc, because the greater Powers could misinterpret it as an offensive measure. Hungary could not be expected to join Powers, one of which had adopted a provocative policy. A message from Athens says the Greek Prime Minister, General Metaxas, said that even the Balkan countries outside the Entente approved the attitude of the member States. Bulgaria could be considered an adherent to the peace group, thus assuring tranquillity throughout the Balkans.
