Insulting

Sir: It was with consternation and dismay that 1 took notice of certain utterances made by Alan J. P. Taylor (28 May). By reproducing with parrot-like fidelity the official Muscovite standpoint with respect to Hungary 1956, Mr Taylor is insulting not only us Hungarians but by implication all the `satellised' nations of Eastern Europe. 1st van Kowics
