"The Proletarian," in this same issue, referring to the Bela Kun dictatorship of Hungary, says: "On Sunday, March 23d, the news was flashed across America that Hungary had swung into the ranks of the revolutionary proletarian dictatorships.... "A note from the Paris Conference seems to have been the last straw that 'broke the camel's back' of the middle course government, causing President, Cabinet and all, to resign.
