The Representative in Hungary (Schoenfeld) to the Secretary of State

648. General Key25 in ACC (Allied Control Commission) meeting September 24 raised question of eviction of Hungarians from Czechoslovakia and Rumania. Voroshilov26 stated he had received many complaints from Hungarians copies of which I have been sending [Page 936] Department but that in his opinion, they were based on rumors and did not have factual basis.

Voroshilov had forwarded notes to local Czech27 and Rumanian representatives. Presumably Russians here are taking no further action in matter.

Repeated to Moscow as 77, to Praha as 10 and to Bucharest as 26.
