The new Hungarian Government formed by the Archduke Joseph on

Wednesday week appears to have been welcomed by all classes with relief after their experience of the tyranny of the Jewish Bolsheviks. The Archduke has, however, found it neoes- snry to disclaim any intention of reviving the Hapsburg Mon- archy. He promises to retire when the National Assembly meets to form a Constitution for the Republic. The Allies in Paris have not yet recognized the new Government. They were appar- ently startled by the vigorous action of the Rumanian Army, which by marching on Budapest had forced Bela Kun and his gang to flee. The Rumanians have occupied Budapest, and an Allied Military Mission has been sent to supervise their operations. We comment on the matter elsewhere.
