United Nations - Blast Reds, Urge Mission to Hungary 03:20:44 LS of General Assembly Hall. US Ambassador Henry Cabot Lodge speaking (SOF): “...speech last May 9th to the National Assembly in Budapest, Mr. Kodar is reported to have rejected proposed political reforms in his Soviet occupied State by saying: ‘we cannot turn back the wheels of history.’ Mr. President, I think there is great doubt that Mr. Kodar & his Soviet masters know in which direction the wheel of history is turning.” Cut away to USSR delegates. 03:21:21 View of Hungary delegates from behind. “They seem to be trying w/ all their might to wrench it out of its National path. But surely it cannot forever be made to turn in the direction that causes so much death & fear & heartache & suffering for millions of people. Faith of the sponsors of this resolution is that the wheel of history can, with God’s help and steadfast human effort, be made to move toward Justice & towards peace. 1957; Anti-Communism; Hungarian Revolution; Diplomacy; Soviet Bloc;
