en relating
to the Tsar that this dastardly deed had been committed by the
Turks. This was the basis of that part of the interview. As for
the other absurdity, it was mentioned that some courtiers had
told the Prince-Regent that he alone could establish an orderly
Government in Russia, whereupon Radi['c] observed that England
and France were not likely to allow one person to reign both
there and in Yugoslavia. And when I asked why he had not
published this explanation in his paper, he said that he
couldn't very well charge a guest with having liked his wine
too much.]

[Footnote 71: The magnates of Hungary and their friends do not
grow weary of lamenting the sad fate of the Magyar minorities.
Whatever may be happening in Transylvania, they have a very
poor case against the Serbs. In the Voivodina there are,
according to Hungarian statistics, about 382,000 Magyars out of
1.4 million inhabitants. These Magyars have their primary and
secondary schools, their newspapers and so forth, whereas in
the spring of 1922 the schools in various Serbian villages near
Budapest were forcibly closed, the lady teachers being told
that if they stayed they would have to undergo the physical
examination which is applied to prostitutes.]
