Hungarian Refugee Policy, 1956–1957

US Hungarian Refugee Policy, 1956–1957 Akiyo YAMAMOTO* INTRODUCTION The United States did not politically intervene during the Hungarian revolution that began on October 23, 1956,1 but it swiftly accepted more Hungarian refugees than any other country.2 The fi rst airplane, which carried sixty refugees, arrived at McGuire Air Force Base located in Burlington County, New Jersey, on November 21, 1956, only seventeen days after the capital was occupied by Soviet forces, and were welcomed by the Secretary of the Army and other dignitaries.3 A special refugee program, created to help meet the emergency, brought 21,500 refugees to the United States in a period of weeks. By May 1, 1957, 32,075 refugees had reached US shores. The United States ultimately accepted approximately 38,000 Hungarian refugees within a year following the revolution.4 The acceptance of Hungarian refugees took place within the framework of existing immigration laws, along with the Refugee Relief Act of 1953. The State Department’s Bureau of Security and Consular Affairs developed this program to bring Hungarians to the United States.5 The Immigration and Nationality Act of 1952, known as the McCarran-Walter Act, permitted entry by a quota system based on nationalities and regions, and only 865 people from Hungary could be accepted each year. -

Rhode Island's Dorr Rebellion and Bay State Politics, 1842-1843 by Erik
108 Historical Journal of Massachusetts • Summer 2011 Attorney Thomas W. Dorr (1805-54) 109 “Let the People Remember!”: Rhode Island’s Dorr Rebellion and Bay State Politics, 1842-1843 ERIK J. CHAPUT Editor’s Introduction: In 1842 a group of Rhode Island reformers took up arms in order to remove the state’s archaic form of government. The origins of the brief, but tumultuous, insurrection lay deep in Rhode Island history. The results, however, deeply impacted politics in Massachusetts. Beginning in 1776, all of the original thirteen colonies, except Connecticut and Rhode Island, wrote new constitutions and set up representative governments. The spark that led Providence attorney Thomas Wilson Dorr (1805- 54) to move from a war of words to the field of battle involved the continued reliance on the 1663 colonial charter as the state’s governing document. As John Quincy Adams noted in his diary on May 10, 1842, Dorr had taken steps to “achieve a revolution in government” because Rhode Island still “adhered” to the charter.1 Rhode Island’s colonial charter, which was still used as the state’s governing document as late as 1842, contained no amendment procedure and restricted suffrage to landowners possessing $134 of real estate. Because of the property qualification for voting, most of the populations of the growing commercial and manufacturing districts were disenfranchised. Indeed, only 40% of the state’s white male population was eligible to vote by 1840.
