Across the snow-swept plains of below-zero Alberta, a grain farmer drove 75 miles to Calgary to place an overseas telephone call to Budapest. At the expense of the Calgary Herald, Mike Kadar, 47, an immigrant from Hungary 28 years ago, sought to talk, brother to brother, to none other than Janos Kadar, No. 1 stooge of the Soviet puppet regime in Hungary. He had small hopes of shoring up younger brother Janos' spine, but other Hungarian-Canadians had besought Mike Kadar to try to intercede in behalf of their valiant relatives still writhing under Russian guns...
Willing Scapegoat. In Washington, British Ambassador Sir Harold Caccia had a confidential dinner with selected Washington pundits at the home of the Washington Post and Times Herald's Chalmers Roberts.

Escaping Hungary Santo told New York Herald Tribune Correspondent Barrett McGurn that he hoped for "asylum in my own country -America" where he would "take my chances with the American system." No longer was he worried about U.S. "labor lackeys" and "traitor agents." Said Santo: "I think Oct. 23 [when the uprising broke out] was the beginning...
...critics asked, is a museum the proper place for such a show? The New York Herald Tribune's Emily Genauer said the exhibit made her feel she had attended a dinner party with guests from Mme. Tussaud's waxworks. Said she: "Museums ought to stick to their originals. There is no shortage of them, old and new, in America." The New York Times's Howard Devree called it a "neon age substitute" and objected to the "inescapable tang of reproduction...
