JASZI TO SPEAK
AT CONVOCATION
Former Member of Hungarian
Cabinet Here a Week
From Today.
LECTURES TO FACULTY
AT CLUB IN EVENING
Prof. Oscar Jaszi, leader of the
republican movement in Hungary,
and former .member of the cabinet
of the republic of Hungary estab
lished immediately after the war, will
speak to the students at a general
convocation v at 11 :00 o clock on
Wednesday, February 6; The sub
ject of Professor Jaszi's talk will be
"Red and White Bolevishevism in
Hungary." All eleven o'clock classes
will be excused.
Professor Jaszi's lecture will be
both interesting and educational,
and all, especially those students in
the College of Arts and Sciences,
departemnts of History, Political
Science, and sociology, should at
tend. The public is also invited.
Professor Jaszi will also give a
lecture at the Faculty Dinner Club
at 7 o'clock in the evening. All the
members of the faculty, their wives
and friends are invited.
Instituted Republic
Hungary was declared an indepen
dent state fallowing the war and
Professor Jaszi was instrumental in
installing a republican form of gov
ernment. This faction remained in
power for a scant six months when it
was overthrown by the Bolshevists.
The Reds held control of state af
fairs for about a year when they in
turn were overthrown by a new op
posing force, a party uniting both
Red and republican principles.
When the original post-war gov
ernment was overthrown by the Bol
sheviki. Professor Jaszi was exiled
from the country. He came tc the
United States and has been giving
lectures on the conditions of Europe,
and especially of the Bolsheviki re
gime in Hungary. Professor Jaszi
was at one time a professor at the
University in Transylvania, and later
a professor of sociology at Buda
pest University, situated in the capi
tal city.
Professor Jaszi lectured before
the International Relations Club of
Vassar, on January 12. He is not
an apoligist of the present political
regime; he is an anti-Bolshevist but
was a member of the cabinet of the
Republic of Hungary established im
mediately after the war.
