COUNT MICHAEL KAROLYI TO SPEAK AT FORD HALL FORUM

Was Formerly President of the Hungarian Republic

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Count Michael Karolyi, first President of Hungary, who is to speak at the Ford Hall Forum tomorrow evening, at 7 o'clock, on "Fascismo--The Menace to World Peace" has, after a four-year period of exclusion, at last been given permission to enter America as an ordinary European visitor with a six months' visa.

In 1900, he became president of the Omege, the Agricultural Society of Hungary. Later he was elected to the Lower Chamber, when he began a vigorous campaign against Count Tisza, leader of the National Work Party, whose policy was to sacrifice the common people to the interests of the Empire and the Hungarian upper caste.

In 1918, following the collapse of Austria-Hungary, Karolyi was for six months President of the Republic of Hungary. He realized the tragic situation of his country only when the Allies established the Magyar Boundaries. When the communists under Bela Kun took possession of the Army and Police, Karolyi could only resign.
