The article focuses on the political warfare in Soviet Union. A recent broadcast by the Kossuth radio, reported to OWl by FCC monitors, offered land to Hungarian soldiers leaving the Szalasi forces to join the Hungarian National Army. This kind of political warfare in Soviet Union is based on the realistic assumption that a peasant will not forget who it was that gave him land. Two months after the armistice was signed, the provisional Hungarian government announced a sweeping land reform. Every vestige of Hungary's feudal land system is to be eliminated. All estates of more than about 140 acres are to be expropriated and distributed in 20-to-35-acre parcels, first to the armed forces and the landless peasants.
