Sin Persoms 0 Ringing Challenge to Help Hungary Hurled Oesert oecad-Oira 1 Baker Resident Wounded as He Flees Gunmen Two Suspects Nabbed Soon After Shooting At Home of Victim Wat FAMILY OF THREE WIPED OUT IN TRAGIC ACCIDENT CITY SECTION Two cars crashed head-on north of Victorville early wiping out a family of three, killing the only child two men. "I am convinced you are doing what you think is best for your country. But is what you think best really what the nation wants to do? Does the. nation realize what commitments its government has entered into? Was the nation's decision of non-intervention, as expressed by you, arrived at with the people's full awareness of these pertinent facts or by the willful suppression of information which in my opinion could not but impel the American people to intervene regardless of danger to themselves. "Would you agree to make a public statement enumerating and clarifying the various agreements, treaties and pledges, also your own statements, including specifically the ones in your State of the Union message following your inauguration in 1953, and explain your reasons for the non fulfillment of same in this desperate moment of Hungary's need.

"And, furthermore, would you agree to direct your press secretary to release a breakdown of the vast amount of letters and messages which you are going to receive, a true analysis of those 'demanding and those opposing immediate armed inter vention on Hungary's behalf. It this breakdown should demonstrate that you have acted as the majority of the American people would have wished you to act, then I shall have to accept the fact that what I had thought to be the greatest nation of the preseut-day era, has become so by cleverly applied self interest alone, unaided by the lofty principles professed. On the other hand, if the majority of these messages is in favor of intervention, I shall at least be able to view Americans without the revulsion I at this moment feel towards such self-proclaimed champions of freedom, liberty and justice for all, who go about business as usual, while 10 millions are being massacred for the very cause America has pledged to defend. "And finally, with regard to your reasoning that the danger of a third world war and the annihilation of vastly greater numbers of people would ensue from an armed intervention in Hungary, I can't help asking myself, and you, Mr. President, how many million murders will constitute an incentive to the (Confinued on Page 30, Column 3) The letter is dated simply "Veterans Day." It is addressed to the President of the United States.

In it is contained a ringing challenge to Americans to do more than offer "words and promises" to embattled Hungary where runs the blood of patriots fighting and dying in a death struggle against the Soviet oppressors. It is signed by Charles J. Csipkay (pronounced chip-kay), who fled his native Hungary in 1949, and his British-born wife, Genevra, also an escapee. Their flight to freedom brought them to San Bernardino. A copy of the letter was sent The Sun-Telegram.

It reads: "Mr. President: "That you, Mr. President, and the majority of American press-commentators have not and do not consider armed help for Hungary, has condemned to death a nation whose only crime has been to uphold the same fundamental principles which America was conceived of. To all appearances this purports to be a flagrant betrayal by the American people of their traditions, promises, agreements, treaties, in fact its very own Constitution.
