FIRST SUPERSONIC BOMBER BLASTS OFF RUNWAY

Kadar Seeking Program
To End Hungarian Chaos
BUDAPEST, Dec. 26 UP).—The Hungarian people prolonged
their Christmas celebration today, but members ot Premier Janos
Kadar s Communist government were reported hard at work.
The Communists are trying to find a program to get the
(till rebellious country out of its political and economic chaos.
An informed Hungarian source said this "new program" prob-
ably will be proclaimed before
New Year’s.
He forecast, however, it will
not be anything spectacular. He
said the most that could be
hoped for would be that it might
serve as the basis for interparty
talks to seek to bring non-Com
munist parties into the present
unpopular regime.
Might Drop Kadar
If other parties, notably the
popular Smallholders Party,
agree to join in a new' govern
ment which could command some
popular support, it would give
the Russians an opportunity to
drop Mr. Kadar as Premier.
The two-day Christmas holi
day ends tonight. The expanded
observance, a return to an old
custom in many European na
tions, was sanctioned by the
Communists this year as part of
a policy of seeking wider public
backing.
Workers return tomorrow to
their jobs in factories, mines and
shops—that is, if ther plants
have coal and power to produce
and if their mines are operating.
Many of the country’s biggest
factories have had to shut down
or go on short work weeks, with
tens of thousands of workers laid
off, because of a lack of fuel.
More Coal Wanted
The government party press
claims Russia is already sup- 1
plying daily shipments of coal
which are promised to total 700,-
000 tons by the end of March.
But Hungary still wants more— 1
and better coal—from the West. 1
Loans are also sought from 1
the West. But nobody here knew 1

To Tax Collector
LEXINGTON. Mo., Dec. 26 UPi.
—A bag containing $27,000 in
tax payments, of which $1,200
was in cash, turned up Christ
mas Day on the desk of Edward
B. Becker, Lafayette County tax
collector, as mysteriously as it
disappeared on Monday.
Delbert Porter, 62-year-old
Janitor, was held in jail. Sheriff
Lambert Schlueter said Porter
would be charged with theft.
Sheriff Schlueter said Porter
was given the keys to Mr.
Becker's office yesterday and
sent inside to look for the bag.
He returned in 15 minutes and
reported no results. Mr. Becker
and Porter’s attorney then went
into the office and found the bag
on the desk.
Porter was sent into the office
to look for the money after tak
ing a lie detector test. Sheriff
8( hlueter said he showed a reac
tion every time there was a
question about $1,200. The re
mainder was in checks and
money orders.

War on Starlings
Will Be Resumed
On Parade Route
In preparation lor the inaugu
ration next month, John W.
1 Batson, superintendent of trees
and landscaping, District gov
; ernment, said today the war
against the starlings will be re
sumed early next week.
Mr. Batson proposes to use
his own men and spray a chem
ical on the trees to give the |
startings a “hot foot”' and drive |
them away. A preliminary test 1
on trees in front of the depart
ment store of S. Kann Sons Co.,
'at Eighth street and Market
space N.W., about a month ago
was pronounced a success.
The Fire Department will be
asked to co-operate in supplying
ladders, Mr. Batson said, and
trees from Constitution avenue
to Fifteenth street N.W. in which
the starlings roost will be
sprayed.
William H. Carr, maintenance'
superintendent of Kann’s. said
today the spraying has proved
*“100 per cent effective” in front
of the store.

Mr. Gibson left the room and
Mr. Phillips reloaded the weap-,
ons Mr. Gibson returned and,'
not knowing the pistols had;
been reloaded, picked up his
and went through thp motions
of fast drawing. The .38-;

chest.
Mr. Gibson has been con
fined to his home in a state of
shock since the accident. Chief

'Forgotten' East Germans
Waitin Refugee Camps
BERLIN, Dec. 26 (jP).—Thousands of refugees from Com
munist East Germany spent Christmas Day In bleak, ciowddcl
barracks, their unhappiness sharpened by the feeling they are
being passed over while the world’s sympathies go to the Hun
garians.
Many of those interviewed in one Wist Berlin camp, where
some refugees have been living
for months, mumbled the belief:
“The Hungarians are getting,
preference for political reasons.'’*
West German officials disagree.!
The Hungarians must seek a
haven beyond their borders, they!,
say. while the East German
flight to the West is an in
ternal problem for the German
nation. •
But one young German voiced
the feelings of most of the relu-|
gees when he said, “We are for- 1
gotten. This Christmas the world J
thinks only of the Hungarian '
refugees.”
Months in Primitive Camps s
Some of the East German l !
.refugees have spent months in 1
primitive, unsanitary - looking i
camps waiting for their freedom
air flight to West Germany, i
Now the prospects of new jobs
and homes in the West look
more distant. Thousands of
Hungarians are clogging recep
tion centers in West Germany
!that once took East German
escapees.
While West Berlin enjoyed Its
most prosperous Christmas since
* prewar days, there was little to
i remind the more than 25.000 East
German refugees In some 40
camps of the holiday season.
The best that hard-pressed of
ficials could do was to supply
them with a little pocket money
and a better than average meal.
Officials admit privately that
the food normally is just enough
for subsistence.
Refugee officials say they
wpuld welcome outside help to
! THE EVENING STAR, Washington, D. C **
WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER IK.MI
supplement the financial aid
given by West Berlin and West
Germany. Bad living conditions
and lack of ways to keep busy
have shattered refugee morale, !
they say. Morals have been for-,
gotten by refugees in some
camps.
Million Refugees <j
More than a million East Ger
man escapees have passed
through West Berlin centers
since 1949. About 75 per cent of
these have been flown to new
homes in West Germany. The
others mostly have made new
homes in West Berlin.
But officials say more than
10,000 refugees still living in the
camps are classified as unwanted
by West Germany. As months
go by conditions get worse for
these people, who include many;
old folk regarded as unemploy-,
able, so-called social misfits and
"criminal elements.”
About four or five thousand
refugees still are coming over to!
West Berlin every week. They
sneak over from Communist East
Berlin carrying knapsacks or
suitcases. Sometimes they take a
1-cent ride to freedom on the
Berlin subway which links g*st
and West.
For most, the exodus westward
is a flight from Communist pov
erty. Only about 3 or 4 per cent
of East German escapees «re
classified as victims of political
persecution.
* Labor-short West Germany
gives the best break to East Ger
man refugees who are able bodied
and between the ages of ll and
24. Most of these young mei\and
women quickly are sent to lobs
in factories, steel mills lsid
mines.
i But for others. It is a walCof
weeks and sometimes mordUis
before they are flown to wst
Germany reception centers Bor
a much slower process of place
ment.
