Press Correspondent Says
Budapest Man
Enjoying "Deadly Spring"
Instead Of Troops, Happy
Couples Are Strolling Along
The Banks Of The Danube
By HENRY T. GORRELL
(United Press Staff Correspondent)
BUDAPEST, April 10 The much
dreaded springtime is here, and the
man-in-the-street, who has been wor
rying all winter about what it might
hold for the valley of the "Blue Dan
ube" shows signs of casting gloom to
the four winds, relaxing, and enjoying
it.
They called it the "deadly spring"
around here, for with it had been ex
pected a general spreading of the
war, together with mobilization
throughout southeastern Europe,
blackouts rationining and all the
other bitter ingredients.
But rather than regiments of troops
marching through the streets with a
heavy clank of hob-nailed boots, happy
couples are strolling arm-in-arm
along the banks of the Danube. In
stead of the anticipated rumble of
cannon and scream of air-raid sirens,
Gypsy music fills the air. Cafes have
started their open-air business.
Flowers are growing in abundance,
with violets in the majority. With the
exception of the absence of tourists,
the spring of 1940 in gay Budapest re
sembles those of former years.
FUTURE BLOTTED OUT
"Things may change overnight . . .
many of us may soon be dead . . . but
why not enjoy life while we still have
it?" that is the attitude of the man-in-the-street.
Perhaps nature has done the trick,
or it may have been the peace in Fin
land. At any rate tension here, which
reached its peak early in March, has
visibly relaxed.
The general attitude now is quite
different from that prevailing in Buda-
pest during the winter, which was one
f the longest and hardest m decades,
Along with bitter cold and heavy
snows, the atmosphere was static with
scores of alarming rumors. The war of
nerves weighed heavily on the hearts
ef the normally carefree Hungarian.
Pessimism was widespread; people
made merry in seeming haste, and had
a tendency to drink more titan was
good for them.
There were many sources of worry,
chief among them the prospects of a
Russian invasion of the Balkans or
trouble in the Middle East with simul
taneous conflict in Hungary and Ru
mania and possibly Yugoslavia. The
average man hasn't dismissed these
and other possibilities. He knows bet
ter, because Hungary for generations
has been a battlefield for mightier
people, among them the Germans,
Turks and Mongols. However, peace in
Scandinavia and the smell of fresh
flowers has made him more of an op
timist. SYMPATHY FOR FINLAND
Not that Hungarians were pleased
with the Finnish peace. Their first re
action was one of depression because
being distantly related to the Finns,
they had identified themselves with
the cause of their northern brothers.
In fact many Hungarians volun
teered to fight in the Finnish army,
but reportedly got no farther than
England. After the first impact, de
pression gave way to a general feel
ing that the northern peace has mate
rially lessened prospects of war in
southeastern Europe.
The chief argument of the average
Hungarian (and he's too much of an
idealist to be a good military strate
gist, although he'll fight like a demon
-rcVon tnroeA tn is that Russia and
Germany now are going to take it
WW VM
easy and let the Allies make the first
move. JUOSt people nere nave
respect for the Allies and feel they
will make that move sooner or later,
but think that it won't involve Hun
gary and the Balkans. Ask them why
they think that way, and you won't get
a ready answer. Perhaps its wishful
thinking.
There is more talk here now of the
prospects of the war assuming serious
proportions in the West than in the
Middle East although there is general
apprehension lest Britain send its fleet
through the Dardanelles into the
Black Sea to blockade shipments of
Soviet oil to Germany through Ru
mania. If this occurs and Germany and
Eassia, retaliate, most people concede
that the Balkans will become in
volved. STRICTLY NEUTRAL IN TALK
To prove their strict neutrality and
the fact that above all, they are for
their country only, Hungarians freely
discuss the merits and faults of both
the Germans ahd Russians and the
Allies, along with their leaders. No

Carolina Debate Squad
Makes Northern Tour
During Spring Holidays
During the last spring holidays,
four members of the University De
bate squad journeyed North and
clashed with six of the nation's col
legiate teams. Ed Maner, Louis Ham
lin, Joe Dawson, and Phil Ellis, tour
ed the Northeast and the New Eng
land states debating Randolph-Macon
women's team, American university in
Georgia, George Washington univer
sity in Washington, Maryland uni
versity in College Park, Boston uni
versity in Boston, and University of
Pennsylvania.
In accordance with the current cus
tom, all debates on the trip were non
decision. According to Ed . Maner,
regular member of the team, this
practice is advantageovs since it
opens up debating, and allows for a
wider discussion of the subject.
Michigan Professor Says
Intelligence Hereditary
"Like Father, Like son" and the old
adage holds for intelligence, too!

That's the conclusion of the Univer
sity of Michigan's Professor Walter
B. Pillsbury, who has just concluded
a study of the hereditary intelligence
of Michigan.
He has discovered that there is al
most as much correlation between the
marks of father and son as there is
between the marks a student receives
in high school and college.
Because there is such conclusive
evidence, "one might even use member
ship in a family with a good scholastic

university," the Michigan psychologist
concludes.
but its more to avoid offending a
neighbor with opposite views than to
dodge secret service agents, of which
there are comparatively few.
Recently Allied prestige has suffered
here, largely due to the Finnish peace,
but there are many dance orchestras
that still feature the British popular
song "Well Hang Up Our Washing on
the Siegfried Line." The other night
this correspondent heard the "Star
Spangled Banner" and "God Save the
King" played ever so softly at the
end of an evening's entertainment in a
popular night club. The manager ex
plained it was a gesture of courtesy to
his American and English patrons.

THE DAILY
The War In The Air
British Pilot's Diary
Describes Dawn Patrol
Over German Waters
LONDON, (UP) From the tense
entries in the diary kept by a British
aircraftsman who took part in a re
connaissance flight over German
waters, a vivid picture of patrol work
in this war becomes available.
The first entry read: "09.20 hours:
On watch."
Forty-eight minutes later the plane
was heading out to sea, and this was
the report:
"10.08 hours: All quiet, visibility
about 2 miles crossing the British coast
at 1,200 feet."
One hour later the diary recorded
that all was quiet, but the altitude was
11,000 feet and oxygen was being used.
The entries continued "All quiet!"
Visibility has improved to about 10
miles and the outline of the German
coast can be seen. It is "all quiet" to
within a quarter mile of the coast.
IN ANTI-AIRCRAFT FIRE
"13.24 hours: The leaders of the for
mation gives the attack signal to all
his aircraft. Within one minute we
were fired on by A. A. (anti-aircraft)
guns, but the aim was very poor. This
fire came from a battery of four guns
on'an island."
"13.30 hours: Attacked by fighters,
twins and singles. One single, one
double shot down. Twin fighter fall
ing from 10,000 feet, hitting water."
"13.40 hours: Single fighter glided
down to water from 10,000 feet ap
peared to alight O. K."
BATTLE ON; NO NOTES
For the next five minutes there was
no entry. The battle was on. Then:
"13.45 hours: Second single fighter
dropped in flames."
A minute later the diary noted that
the formation had come down to 10,
000 feet. The report aded: "Visibility
good. Rear gunner reports one more
M. E. 110 (Messerschmidt pursuit
type) shot down."
"13.50 hours: Another M. E. 110
seen falling out of control."
"13.51 hours: Battle over. All
quiet."
