By decree No. 1559/1920 the Hungarian government abolished all lodges. con- fis•ated their property for Christian Institutions and arrested Its leading members. The buildings occupied by the important lodges in several Hun- garian cities as well as the Grand Lodge in Budapest have been torn down, and people paid admission to lima at the shame of Hungarian cir. ilization. It created quite a stir abroad and American grand lodges passed resolutions of protest and sent a special commission to Hungary to ascertain the forts with their own ! eyes. However, the Hungarian got ern- ment knows how to explain their ac- tion. Bolshevism is the shibboleth. The lodges, usually criticized as bring links in the chain of international capitalism, are now denominated IS the center of another Jewish move- ment: Bolshevism. It Is said that the Free Mason organization brooch about the World Vt'ar and Is now the main- stay of Bolshevism in Hungary, and therefore, it Is absolutely required that In the interest of Hungarian nation- ality as well as Hungarian society at large, the Institution be abolished. While it may he doubtful whether the American commission will accept such explanation, one thing is cer- tain: the government will not with draw on iota from its original position and will continue In its prosecution of the lodges as Jewish agencies. Jews Still Patriotic. Nevertheless the Jews of Hungary. just as the German Jews for that mat- ter, persist in their Magyar patriotism . They are still full of praises for the "known" tolerance of Hungarian mag- nates and peasants. ()Mehl' Judaism In Hungary Is greatly concerned over the growing tide of anti.SemItism In Hungary. Proof is offered to the effect that real Hungarian Jews have bled for their country and have not caused the revolution or any Bolshev. Ism and that they have never tried to abolish the Hungarian army, but, on the contrary, were always loyal sons of a true Magyar conception of the Hungarian state. The Jews have re- mained Magyars even in those sec- tions of Hungary which have come under Csecho-Slovak or Roumanian domination.
