9 UV-The Air Force took delivery of its first prop-jet transport, the Lockheed C130 Hercules today. At better than 400 miles per hour, it is the fastest transport to go into regular -service with the Air Force. Tactical Air Command, said the new planes would enable the com- luauu iu uu jusl iiuuui twice as much work, unit for unit and man for man," as is now possible. The C130 can carry 20 tons of cargo, and deliver it either by landing or by parachute drops. By comparison with the propeller-driven Fairchild which it will replace, the Hercules can carry 92 troops instead of 42.

Powered by four Allison T-56 turboprop engines driving huge Aeroproducts propellers, it has about twice the 200-mile-an-hour crusing speed of either the C119 or the much larger Douglas C124.

General Assembly, has been rightly hailed as an important milestone along the road that leads to worldwide recognition of the inherent dignity of man. He said that while it is a time for global mourning, "the human spirit knows, as Thomas Jefferson said, that the God who gave us life, gave us liberty at the same time." And he said further that "the courage and the sacrifices of the brave Hungarian people have consecrated that spirit anew." Eisenhower expressed pride in the "generous response" of individuals and voluntary and government agencies in this country in moving to aid the Hungarian people.

ONLY (ft Li console in PARIS, Dec. 9 UP) Secretary of State John Foster Dulles flew into Paris today to buckle the Atlantic alliance together again. But the United States appeared ready to offer less money in the process than for which Europe is dreaming.

Dulles stepped off a plane at foggy Orly Field and told correspondents of European newspapers that the United States "stands ready to help" finance the blow of the Suez affair and to maintain European defenses. He came to attend the ministerial meeting ot the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) open ing Tuesday but planned to butter some bruised spots in the alliance Reds Impose Martial Law In Hungary IContlnned From Pare One) Paris were closed. The operators called it "line United Press correspondent Hon a Nyilas managed to get through on the phone to the U.P. bureau in Moscow. She got out one sentence: "The Budapest Central Workers Council ordered a nationwide strike for 48 hours beginning Monday midnight." Then the lines went dead.

CONTACT ENDS By 1 p.m., there was no more contact with Budapest. Reports seeping into Vienna said the city even was isolated from other parts of Hungary by the curtain of silence. But it was learned before the communications shutdown that the strike would affect even public utilities, which have not been affected by the still half effective general strike called on the day of the uprising, Oct. 23. Only 50 per cent of Hungary's workers have been back on the job in recent weeks.

Electric power and water sup plies were to be maintained only for medical and other emergency purposes. It was an ominous situation. Twice before, Budapest had been isolated: The day before the Oct. 23 uprising and the day of the Nov. 4 Soviet onslaught.

The government flatly admitted that it was faced with armed insurgents. It said Friday there had been armed clashes in Budapest itself. For days, reports from Hungary reaching Vienna have told of armed clashes in the Pecs region of southern Hungary between rebel bands and Russian troops. One worker who reached Budapest from the city of Pecs told the United Press yesterday there were as many as 2,000 well-armed rebels operating in the Mecsek mountains near the Yugoslav border. operation, he said.

He looked fit. He put in a full day of work yesterday, boarded the plane at 4 p.m. and worked for a further two hours as the big Army transport droned' over the Atlantic. He arranged to meet the French Foreign Minister Christian Pineau tomorrow and members of his entourage said he also would meet British Foreign Secretary Selwyn Lloyd, among the latest arrivals for this week's meetings. On arriving from London, Lloyd said British-French intervention in the Middle East would be discussed "at some stage" at the NATO meeting.

"The two alliances Western European Union and NATO are af-fecsted by events like these in other parts of the world." OTHER TALKS SLATED Aside from the NATO session, there will be a meeting tomorrow of the Western European Union, a subsidiary defense organization including West Germany, France, Italy, Britain, Belgium, Holland and Luxembourg, all members also of NATO. As of. tonight, Dulles' plans did not include a meeting of the' Big Three foreign secretaries together, But there was known to be consid erable pressure from NATO mem brs for the secretary to make a show of Atlantic solidarity by meet ing jointly with his British and French colleagues. Dulles' relatively warm words on arrival were preceded by a chilling blast from across the Atlantic where Secretary of the Treasury George Humphrey said in a speech last night in New York that "some estimates of the need for financial support have been greatly exagge rated." Humphrey added, however, that aid would come along with under standing of the problems faced by European NATO members, whose oil supplies were largely shut off by the armed venture into the Canal Zone. There were reports here that Humphrey had intended an even sterner speech but that it had been "watered down" on ad vice of other members of the ad ministration.

Particularly this is true for the mothers whose children will see and hear about the gifts and heavily-laden tables in the homes of other children more fortunate than themselves. If the Joy Fund does not help, how will these children answer the question: "What did Santa Claus bring you? And how can these children be expected to understand that Santa does not come to visit in the homes of the poor? The letters from the needy differ in detail perhaps there are three children in this family and six in that, perhaps the father is ill or maybe it is the mother who is dying of an incurable disease but the theme does not change: It is one of heart-ache, wretchedness, abject poverty, anguish and despair. Into these dark corners of our city the light of love and generosity can penetrate. Whether it does so is up to us.
