in the Anglican par ish room Mrs Jennings was invited to re late her recent experience in Aus tria as an observer of the Hun garian refugee developments At the request of the Canadian Hun garian Federation the Canadian department of citizenship and im migration arranged for an un biased volunteer to view the sit uation and return to Canada with a first hand account Mrs Jenn ings was chosen and spent two weeks in Vienna and border towns where she saw the plight of the refugees and the marvell ous work by the Austrian people in bringing a measure of comfort to the stricken people The refugees all want to come to Canada the land they say is so true and solid Everywhere Mrs Jennings found young Hun garians with appealing eyes ask ing the unspoken question Ah you are a Canadian what can you do for us I hope she said whatever is done Canada will bring out as many refugees as possible as quickly as possible to relieve the terrible congestion in Vienna that their escape into that country caused Mrs Jennings is vicepresident on the Canadian scene for langu age and press services for Can ada She is convener of and Immigration for Tor ontos municipal and is on the national council She is a volunteer worker with Torontos coordinating committee on citiz enship receptions to newcomers who receive their Canadian citiz enship papers There is plenty of room in Can ada for these refugees the speak er believes provided immigration is properly handled and controll ed It is a sad scene but unbeliev ably true Mrs Jennings related More than once she paused in her description lest the impact of what she said was too depressing for the King audience Every pic ture you see and stories you read about this problem are true she affirmed All over Vienna were groups of refugees faces showing the ravag es of suffering and hardship and separation from families and homes in Hungary All were young the old could not take the harrowing experience of crossing the border into Austria Men and women carrying children and ba bies had walked miles suffering swollen legs and ankles The wo men usually collapsed when they got across but all were cold hun gry and distraught with worry and fear Never does a baby cry the little things are doped with sedatives lest their crying be heard by a Russian guard Mrs Jennings nursed a baby all night keeping it awake before the sedative put it out of existence She said she had heard of two babies dying From midnight until 6 am the steal thy movement of refugees cross ing the line at the border towns and villages went on night after night Women and girls had walked boards across streams chilled to the marrow in the cold foggy nights their clothes soaking wet and furlined coats ruined Austria was in a disorganized mess at the outset with Hungarians needing shelter food and some semblance of care Mrs Jennings declared The Austrian women were wonderful working 24 hours a day The working class es could only help at night and cottagers in the border villages shared their food and lodging with the escapees Mrs Jennings described her Rve injured In Crash On No 11 South Of Aurora Five people were admitted to York County

You drive along a narrow muddy road in the fog across fenceless fields and around hay stacks You drink plum brandy to keep warm The car lights are turned out near the freedom bor der line The Russian flares light up as their guards search for es capees Then you hear a sound of light arms You wait for 30 min utes then you see a faint flicker of the Austrian guard lights Darkness again and the refugees pour from the deserted swamp lands and field across the border They had fought the Communist element They are free again ex hausted but grateful They are actually lifted into waiting cars taken to villages or towns for cups of tea and some food Then they are taken by bus to the hostels schools and barr acks They sleep on bunks straw and beds lining the walls There is no privacy men and women a- were sheltered thus The old military barracks aban doned by the Russians were to have been torn down by Austrian government but in three weeks were turned into camps The stone buildings with broken windows robbed of water taps and pipes everything moveable were put in to havens for the refugees Mrs Jennings saw young teen age boys sleeping with pistols and swords by their sides in the host els I will put them up here while you sleep said Mrs Jennings No they cried we might have to kill a Russian tonight So horrified were they even though they had escaped the terror While they slept
