Italo-Hungarian Negotiations
Budapest, To-day.. THE visit to Rome of the Hungarian Premier and Foreign Minister is said by the Rome corres- pondent of "Eati Ujsag" to assume, in the view of Italian political circles, particular import- ance on account of the existing European ten- sion.

This consolidation, according to the correspondent, implies final settlement of relations between Hungary and Yugoslavia.

It goes to show further that the officials in the Central Government treat every public question as a joke. Their mental make-up is such that they believe that any person is fit for any job. That is why we find in the administration so many round pegs in square holes. No won- der the terrible mess!
Faithfully yours,
P. K. CHUN. [Mr. Chun is guilty of several emanated errors. The invitation from a disinterested foreign source as the result of an urgent appeal from the foreign leader of a large Red Cross unit. Drivers employed by the doctor for the ambulances were filched by a transportation company paying higher wages, and urgently needed ambulances have been immobiliséd. The appeal was seriously put forward in the hope that it might arouse a sense of | patriotism among persons who would be immune to the attraction of pecuniary advantage, for the sake of an humanitarian ideal. Men, not chauffeurs, were asked for.
The invitation has nothing what- over to do with governments nor is there anything in it for individuals Inspired only with a sense of trie- vance (Ed. C. M. and B. H));
