Dudas to Die for Leading
Hungarian Rebellion
BUDAPEST, Jan. 15 (JP).— A Communist military court was
reported to have imposed a death sentence today on Josef Dudas,
a leader of Hungary's uprising against the Russians.
A usually reliable source said Mr. Dudas, a bold looking man
with a varied political background, was condemned on charges
that included seizure and suppression of the Communist news-
paper Szabad Ney October 29.
Confirmation was lacking.
Hungary's government-con
trolled press has said not a word
about Mr. Dudas' trial, though
it has acknowledged the imposi
tion of 22 death sentences so far
under a martial law decree that
makes even the illegal possession
of ammunition a capital crime.
Secrecy Around Trial
A 20-year-old welder was the
latest addition to the official list.
The trade union paper Nepa
karat announced the welder,
Istvan Horvath, is to die and
others of a fighting group he led
—the number was not stated—
are going to prison for 5 to 10
years for “disarming revenue
officers” and other offenses in
Budapest.
Secrecy shrouds the trials.
Premier Janos Radar's Red
regime has refused visas for
three former attorneys general!
of Britain who sought to come
to Budapest to attend as ob-:
servers. The men turned down
are Sir Hartley Shawcross. Sir
Prank Soskice and Sir Lionel
Heald.
Mr. Dudas was riding high at
the peak of the rebellion.
At one time he was running
the city of Budapest for the in
surgent students and workmen.
He talked with reporters in in
terviews and news conferences.
He impressed them as aggres
sive and adventurous.
Whatever he did to Szabad
Nep, that Communist publica
tion has never reappeared. Its
place as the official party organ
has been taken by a new paper,
Nepszabadsag.
Since 1945, Mr. Dudas had
been a member of a number of
political groups in Hungary,
ranging from the moderate
smallholders to the Communists.
Imprisoned in ’4B
He went to prison in 1948, a
time when Matyas Rakosi was
running Hungary as Communist
Party boss. He was released last

Mechanic Sought
FORT WAYNE, Ind., Jan. 16
(/P). —A 35-year-old woman and
her 5-year-old daughter were
slashed to death in the basement
of their home yesterday, and po
lice were looking for the missing
husband and father.
The bodies of Mrs. Pearl
Keifei and her daughter, Doro
thy. bearing innumerable slash
wounds, were found in opposite
corners of the basement. An
older daughter, Caroline. 14, dis
covered the bodies when she
came home from school.
Police Chief Mitchell Cleve
land said Richard Keifer, 36-
year-old mechic, w'as being
sought for questioning in the j
deaths. Keifer, a mechanic at
the Security Cartage Co., had
reported to his foreman at 6:30
a.m. that he was not feeling well
and would not come to work.
The police chief said the wom
an and the girl apparently were
killed soon after 7:30 a. m., when
the older girl and a son. Paul. 16.
had left for classes at North Side
High School.

year. In the final days of the
short-lived revolt Premier Imre
Nagy ordered his arrest, but Mr.
Dudas was said to have been
released on parole.
Before the Russians launched
their successful attack November
4 to crush the rebellion, Mr.
Dudas edited a newspaper called
Magyar Pueggetlense* (Hun
garian Independence*. V
Meantime, the Communists
pushed on with their efforts to
uproot resistance. Nepszabadsag
announced Budapest police had
uncovered a submachine gun,
eight rifles and some grenades
cached by a group led by Byula
Kohali, described as “a man with
a criminal record.”
On the economic front, radio
Budapest said Red China is
lending Hungary 200 million
rubles (SSO million) for recon
struction work. The Radar gov
ernment announced two weeks
ago that Soviet Russia had
granted a 200-mllliom-i üble loan
The radio al*> charged that
exaggerated rumors wefe spread
abroad on the number of persons
killed in Budapest. It quoted the
city council as saying "only”
1,700 perished. Some Western
estimates have run as high as
20,000, with even 50,000 men
tioned for the whole country.

Celebes Told
JAKARTA, Indonesia. Jan. 16
.(/P).—Leading politicians in the
[Central Celebes said today they
plan to reclaim “provincial
status” lot their area of the
Eastern Indonesia island Janu
ary 23.
Informants said the Central
Celebes long has sought separate
recognition from the central In
donesian government. They said
political parties and other or
ganizations in the region were
opposed to the Jakarta govern
ment’s plan for lumping the area
with the northern province of
the island. That would divide
the Celebes into only two prov
inces.
The Celebes as a whole has
been seeking more autonomy, as
have other' restive regions of the
young Indonesian republic.
Sources close to President Su
karno reported that he plans to
form a revolutionary council to
give him a stronger hand in deal
ing with the problems facing
Indonesia. There was a differ
ence of opinion as to what the
projected council plan would
mean, but it was reported it
would have veto power over the
government. It was not clear
whether Mr. Sukarno would
consult the cabinet or parlia
ment before organizing the coun
