With the open- j ing at the school year in Budapest, Min- i j ister of Education Huzat finds the ap- palling ravages of Bolshevism In the school situation, including distribution of j literature encouraging free love among I the children. j When the Bolshevists took over the schools on Aprii 1 last year they forthwith forth-with wrecked the finances of the educa-j educa-j tional departments; then abolished the previous system of education and burned all textbooks of history, geography, religion re-ligion and kindred subjects, substituting Bolshevist pamphlets of the most rabid I nature. j Among the men who became textbook writers for the pupils were Joseph Pa- gany, the man who killed Count Tisza; Lenine, Trotzky, Beia Kun, Kautsky, Karl X. Burharm and Leo Frankel, Hungarian Hun-garian leader of the Parisian commune. I Sixty million crowns were spent for I printing pamphlets and 60,000.00 crowns for "personal expenses." In the country I districts 23.000,000 crowns went the tame way. Fifteen thousand men were em-i em-i ployed in transforming the system of ed- ucation into a hotbed of anarchy. Most j of these pamphlets now have been round-i round-i ed up and burned. The originals num-j num-j bered more than 600 so-called texts. Minister Huzat said today: "Even the Bolshevist doctrine of free j love was taught in the schools. Our daughters were taught they need not be j ashamed, and they were given lectures I in intimate personal hygiene. Those over i 15 were informed the state would care ' for children, if they were unfortunate enough to have them. There was the same line of lectures to boys." Huzat is a reactionary in political principles. prin-ciples. He is a capable man. and appears honestly to have adopted the principle of no discrimination between Jews and Christians. . |
