...states was being explained as a triumph for Tito's bold policy of more independence for those countries-but also as a sign of Khrushchev's inability to sell that liberalized policy to his Kremlin colleagues. It was given out that, although relations are improving (e.g., ousted Hungarian Premier Imre Nagy, who has Tito's backing, was reinstated to Communist Party membership last week), there were still many outstanding "ideological differences" between satellites Hungary. Rumania, Bulgaria and independent Yugoslavia...
...Budapest. The Communists found him no easier to handle than the Nazis had; he stubbornly resisted the nationalization of church schools. In 1948 the Communists arrested him on trumped-up charges of currency-law violation and sentenced him to two years in prison. Yielding to Communist pressure, the Hungarian Lutheran Church court deposed him as bishop. After his release in 1950, he retired to live quietly with his family in a Budapest apartment...

...Communists, by making a number of concessions to him, made his visit to Yalta seem highly successful. In Hungary, the Communists ordered the disinterment and state reburial of former Foreign Minister Laszlo Rajk and three other top-ranking Communists who were all hanged seven years ago as Titoists. The Hungarian state Cabinet and some 200,000 Hungarians marching behind the black coffins were, in effect, a tribute to Tito's new importance in that country. A delegation from the Hungarian Communist Party, led by Erno Gero himself, prepared to pay court to Belgrade. A delegation from the Italian party...
