(FOR KEY WE REVERS)
1. Due to the serious economic crisis in Hungary, there has been a large-scale reduction
of employees and appropriations in all factories, workshops of Meszhart and other
shipping concerns.
2. The shipping department of the Ministry of Mail and Communications put up a require-
ment for 80,000,000 forints in 1954 for 12 concerns which are engaged in building
and repairing ships. This sum was not accepted by the Ministry of Finance and the 25X1
amount was reduced to 26,000,000 forints. This sum is to be divided amongst the 12
concerns for the coverage of all costs.
this sum is totally inadequate and serious difficulties are25X1
o sen in e ure in the construction of new shipping.
The Minister of Finance K&roly Olt, who is on leave in Moscow, is more in favor of
rail transport, and in consequence a content friction exists between the Ministry
of Mail and Communications and the Ministry of Finance on shipping problems.
