EXPOSE Mindszenty still retained enough statecraft to scribble the tiny letters "C.F." beside his signature. They are latin for coactus feci, meaning "done by me under duress." especially the Hungarian Communists, he was dissuaded from this plan. But, significantly, no word of gratitude to the United States was contained in his statement on arrival in Rome. Even when Paul succeeded in persuading Archbishop Josef Beran to surrender and leave Czechoslovak confinement and get a cardinal's hat, Mindszenty remained a holdout After all, he was already a cardinaL He could confront the Pope's envoys with an example of successful resistance that none could deny Poland's Stefan Cardinal Wyszynski.

Wyszynski spent years in a Stalinist prison along with the future party secretary Wlad-islaw Gomulka and came out to become Gomulka's adver-. sary and even to outlast him. In accepting from Paul what he twice branded bitterly "the heaviest cross of my life," Mindszenty still demonstrated that he was capable of a more clever rearguard action than either Slipyj or Beran. In 1949, when the Stalinist police of Hungary drugged him into signing a confession, ready to arrest him if be -stepped outside the embassy's door. Gradually he understood his own leverage, not only as the last figurehead of Catholicism's restrained resistance, but as an international hostage.

For years the U.S. state department kept Hungary at the antiquated level of legation, below fearing the reaction of American if it were raised. When the step was made, the Americans faced a new threat from the incensed cardinal, who pointed out the paradox of giving him refuge but elevating the status of the government waiting to arrest him on rigged charges. So angry was Mindszenty that he threatened to walk out the embassy door in protest and give himself up to the Hungarian police. He still had nine unfinished years of bis 16-year sentence to serve.

By forcing the Hungarians to arrest him, he hoped to punish the Americans by dramatizing what he considered their sacrifice of international principles for their national aims in wooing the new Hungarian regime. To the relief of everybody, By GEORGE WELLE VATICAN CITY, (CDN) In the stern discipline of the Catholic church, a pope's vi- sion dissolves the dream of a cardinal. 1 That austere law prevailed In the Vatican when Hungar- 1 y's frail primate, Jozsef Car- dinal Mindszenty, 79, walked Tuesday into the open arms of I Pope Paul VI, free but defeat- ed, submissive and safe, but unsatisfied. Mindszenty's dream was to walk out the doors of the U.S. embassy in Budapest into the arms of his own Magyar peo- pie, a leader restored with i honor after 22 years confine- I ment.

But Pope Paul has built amost every diplomatic twist in his nine-year pontificate around his own dream of opening personally some Com- i munist country, preferably Russia, China or Poland. Toward this master plan he yearns, aims and makes concessions. One figure impeded him the bent, obdurate holdout in the two-room top suite of the U.S. embassy in Budapest. Even 15 years of snackbar food from the embassy's basement did not make Mindzenty negotiate.

As long as Mindszenty's freedom was fettered, as long as he insisted that Communist charges against him were lies, the pope's private crusade to break through the Communist curtain was nearly impossible. The anti-Communist bishops in the church, whom Paul stifled during the ecumenical council by refusing even to let them discuss communism during the conclave, are already restive at his concessions. He dare not force Mindszenty for years. In 1963, Paul opened his eastern front with the similar release of Archbishop Josef, Slipyj, the Ukrainian prelate, from 18 years servitude ending as a floorwashing janitor in Siberia. But the price Slipyj, later cardinal, had to pay Paul was not to make any open criticism of the Communist regime.

Mindszenty similarly has bowed to Paul's strategy, sad but dutiful. To remove Mindszenty by political persuasion was impossible, as proved by the many visits to him by Franz Cardinal Koenig of Vienna. Paul's ace eastern diplomat In this second great surrender of his life, Mindszenty has been able to force the Vatican to remove Bishop Imre Szabo as apostolic administrator of his diocese. Szabo has served as a pliable intermediary with a Communist regime that already subsidizes the church over Mindszenty's bitter opposition. He accompanied the cardinal to Rome.

In his place the Vatican has put the only remaining Hungarian bishop in the right age bracket who has resisted the regime, 56-year-old Bishop Imre Kisberk. He once refused to take the loyalty oath the Communist state and only yielded after clearance from Rome. It is believed that Mindszenty insisted Kisberk should replace Szabo. As long as Mindszenty lives, it is difficult for Paul to name another primate in his place. When he reaches 80, Paul's retirement age for cardinals in office, he may have to yield his title.

Since his arrival Tuesday, Cardinal Mindszenty has spent his time in almost complete quiet and has not left his apartment, Vatican sources said.

The Peking announcement a week ago that the traditional National Day parade had been cancelled touched off speculation that something was stirring in China. It has been traditional every Oct. 1 since the Communists took control of the mainland for Mao Tse-tung and other ranking Communist leaders to review the parade.

The telecast opened with coverage of a Chinese delegation returning to Peking from a visit to North Vietnam, continued with a long documentary on the use of acupuncture as a medical treatment, then switched to a gymnastics exhibition staged by a visiting Albanian athletic team at which Premier Chou En-lai was seen. Even with Chou's appearance, none of the three items appeared significant enough to have warranted Canton telecasting on a Wednesday night one of, the three nights each week it normally does not operate. The telecast was monitored in the Portuguese colony of Macao near Hong Kong. The only thing out of the ordinary was Radio Peking's broadcast that the capital and other major cities were in a festive mood for National Day but made no mention of the cancellation of the parade. Radio Peking said a large portrait of Mao had been erected in Tien An Men Square, where the parade has always been held, and added: "The whole city is festively decorated.

The newly-painted Tien An Men rostrum looks all the more magnificent under brilliant sunshine." Botvinnik is the grand old man of Soviet chess, a mathematical genius who was world champion from 1948-56, 1958-60 and 1961-62. He then retired to help develop a computer programmed with chess-like patterns of logic His comments on the eve of the Fischer-Petrosian match were all the more striking because of the intensive pride the Russians take in their own domination of world chess. Spassky, 34, won the world title in 1969 from Petrosian, who is now in his 40s. Botvinnik said he rated Spassky "a more level-headed and many-sided player and man than Fischer, although Spassky is perhaps not as capable of counting variants as quickly and skilfully as Fischer." Botvinnik, however, dis-counted predictions that Fischer would roll over Petrosian without a defeat in the same way as he disposed of the previous two opponents on his current campaign. "Fischer sometimes loses," he said, "because man is not a machine." U.S.

You con charge your ticketi ot Eoton's MOSCOW (UPI) Mikhail Botvinnik, one of the Soviet Union's greatest chess players, says A i a's Bobby Fischer and Russia's Boris Spassky will dominate world chess throughout this decade. For former world champion Tigran Petrosian, this is not encouraging. Petrosian, a Soviet Armenian, and Fischer begin a 10-game match Thursday in Buenos Aires for the right to challenge Spassky's world title.

"There is every reason to assert that the 1970s will see keen rivalry between Spassky and Fischer," Botvinnik said in a review of chess, published in the current issue of Yunost (Youth) magazine. "Chess lovers around the world will gain a lot of memories from the struggle of these two chess players, but it cannot now be told who will have the odds in his favor," he said.

ATHENS (Reuter) John i.Skelton, a U.S. theology stu-'tfent convicted with Lady Am- alia Fleming of plotting to free a Greek prisoner, was re- leased from prison today and handed over to the United Slates consular authorities. Skelton, 32, from Yardsley, was given a seven-month suspended sentence when the trial ended Tuesday. Diplomatic observers believe that Lady Fleming, 62, widow of Sir Alexander Fleming, discoverer of penicillin, and Athina Psychoyou, 42, a Greek-American divorcee from Minneapolis, would be expelled from Greece instead of being made to serve their sentences of 16 and 14 months respectively. ii ii i a rn ii i i r'.
