TIONS, N.Y., Dec. 12 (/P)—The U.N. Assem
'ngly condemned the Soviet Union tonight for
;elan independence and called on Moscow to
med forces immediately from the revolt-torn
withdraw its a
land.
lirst'time such a judgment had been returned
It was the
by the Assembly
'against any U.N
member_
The vote in fa or of an Ameri
can-backed res lution slapping
the Soviet Union for its actions in
Hungary- was 5 in favor, eight
opposed and 13 abstentions. The
Soviet bloc vote. against the reso
lution with the exception of Hun
gary which was absent.
Voting Splits Bloc
The voting split the Asian-Afri
can bloc. V. K. Krishna Menon
of India abstained but other
members such as Burma, Ceylon,
Iran, Lebanon, Libya, Nepal, Pak
istan, Philippines, Thailand and
Tunisia voted for the resolution.
It was the sharpest split in this
bloc yet to be registered in the
Assembly.
The Soviet Union angrily de
nounced the resolution and began
a drive to brink charges against
the United States for allegedly in
tervening in the Soviet bloc coun
tries. This will likely be debated
later by the Assembly in the
course of its regular work.
Third Request
By its decision the Assembly
called for the third time for the.
Russians to get out of Hungary.
This time it added the judgment
against the Soviet Union in the
following words: ,
"Declares that, by using its
armed force against the Hungari
an people, the government of the
Union of Soviet Socialist Repub
lics is violating the political inde
pendence of Hungary;
"Condemns the violation of the
charter by the government of the
Union of Soviet Socialist Repub
lic's in depriving Hungary of its
liberty and independence and the
Hungarian people of the exercise
of their fundamental rights."
Ask Dag's Initiative
The Assembly asked Secretary
General Dag Hammarskjold, who
has been trying unsuccessfully to
go to Budapest to start U.N. re
lief work, to "take any initiative
that he deems helpful in relation
to the Hungarian problem." This
left it up to Hammarskjold to
decide what to do. It was in
serted at the last minute to block
a proposal by India, Ceylon, Bur
ma and Indonesia for the Assem
bly to instruct Hammarskjold to
go to Moscow in an effort to
achieve a solution.

gary's Communist government—
smarting under a general strilie
and continued street demonstra:
tions—decreed tonight mandatory
death for all persons convicted of
crimes under its newly-issued
martial law decree-
At the same time—in a broad
cast from strike-bound Budapest
—it identified two of the labor
leaders arrested in the Commu
nists' attempt to stem the surge
of popular feeling against the
Soviet-supported premier, Janos
•Kadar.
Two Arrested
The two were Sandor Racz,
president of the Budapest work-
Central Council, and Sandor Bali,
a council member. They were
charged with numerous offenses,
including the organization of "pro

seem to fall under the martial
law decree_
That decree, issued Sunday over

Dobi, listed murder, manslaugh
ter, arson, robbery, looting, dam
age to public plans and utilities
and all attempts at those crimes.

arms, ammunition and explosives.
The President, a figurehead, is
sued a supplemental decree to
day to make the death sentence
mandatory.
Labor Leader Escapes

to Austria said the tension within
Budapest, torn for 50 days by
military and political fighting,
"is almost unbearable."
"The big drama is just begin
ning," he said. "The storm can
come at any moment" In a simi
lar vein, the radio said the Hun
garian capital—its industry and
commerce largely paralyzed by
the general strike protesting the
activities of Radar's government—
was alive with "provocative ru
mors."
