No copies of this work may be distributed, electronically or otherwise, in whole or in part, without permission from the author. 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.

  • With a Combination of Speed, Daring and Brains, Ty Cobb Is Surely the Terror of the Opposing Infield.” – 1912 Hassan Cigarettes Tobacco Card
    Ty Cobb By Jimmy Keenan “With a combination of speed, daring and brains, Ty Cobb is surely the terror of the opposing infield.” – 1912 Hassan Cigarettes tobacco card. “Rogers Hornsby could run like anything but not like this kid. Ty Cobb was the fastest I ever saw for being sensational on the bases." – Hall of Fame manager Casey Stengel. 1 “The Babe was a great ballplayer, sure, but Ty Cobb was even greater. Babe Ruth could knock your brains out, but Cobb would drive you crazy." – Hall of Fame outfielder Tris Speaker. 2 "The greatness of Ty Cobb was something that had to be seen, and to see him was to remember him forever." – Hall of Fame first baseman George Sisler. 3 Ty Cobb made his mark in baseball during the first three decades of the 20 th century. To this day, the mere mention of his name resonates baseball excellence. Cobb was credited with setting 90 individual records during his 24-year major league career. He played with the Detroit Tigers from (1905- 26) and the Philadelphia A's from (1927-28). He was the player-manager of the Tigers from 1921-26. Cobb hit over .400 three times (1911, 1912, 1922). He currently holds the highest lifetime batting average (.366) of any major league player. During his tenure in the bigs, he was credited with 12 American League batting titles, nine of them in a row. An error regarding Cobb’s 1910 hitting statistics was discovered in 1978. This correction led to him losing a point on his lifetime average as well as the 1910 batting crown.

Fidel Castro discusses in his autobiography how the Pedro Pan children, as were the parents, were always free to leave the country. He describes the delay in parent’s reuniting with their children was due to logistical issues, primarily caused by interference and antagonism from the United States government. Grau, Polita. “Polita Grau: A Woman in Rebellion.” Cuba – The Unfinished Revolution, edited by Enrique Encinoso, Eakin Press, 1988. Polita Grau is the niece of the former president of Cuba, Ramon Grau San Martin (1944-1948). This chapter is a first-hand account of her involvement in Operation Pedro Pan. Polita and her brother established the underground network which disbursed Msgr. Walsh’s visas to the children. She falsified thousands more visa waivers and made arrangements for the plane flights. She was jailed for 20 years for allegedly attempting to overthrow the government. She has been referred to as the “Godmother” of Operation Pedro Pan. Films The Lost Apple. Directed by David Susskind. Paramount, 1963. The United States Information Agency created this documentary to document the mission and legacy of Operation Pedro Pan. The 28-minute film follows the journey of Roberto, a six-year old Pedro Pan child, as he adjusts to his new life at the Florida City Camp. The intent was to show the film at various dioceses throughout the U.S. in hopes of getting more foster families to help relieve the overcrowded conditions at the camps.

  • Hungarian Refugees of 1956: from the Border to Austria, Camp Kilmer, and Elsewhere.” Hungarian Cultural Studies
    Niessen, James P. “Hungarian Refugees of 1956: From the Border to Austria, Camp Kilmer, and Elsewhere.” Hungarian Cultural Studies. e-Journal of the American Hungarian Educators Association, Volume 9 (2016): http://ahea.pitt.edu DOI: 10.5195/ahea.2016.261 Hungarian Refugees of 1956: From the Border to Austria, Camp Kilmer, and Elsewhere1 James P. Niessen Abstract: Camp Kilmer dominates the story of flight from Hungary in 1956-1957 for many Hungarian Americans who experienced the Revolution, and with good reason: roughly four-fifths of them came through the camp, and their subsequent integration into American life was largely successful. But it is less well known that many fifty-sixers did not share this experience: as many may have returned to Hungary as came to the US, and by far most of the refugees ended up in other countries. US restrictions on entry steered many refugees to other countries, but the US provided most of the funding for the international relief effort. This article seeks to relativize the myth of Camp Kilmer by examining the refugees’ motives for leaving Hungary, their experience in Austria, and why so many ended up in the US, in other countries, or back in their homeland. Keywords: Camp Kilmer, 1956, refugees, Austria, Switzerland, Israel, Tracy Voorhees Biography: James P. Niessen is World History Librarian at Rutgers, the State University of New Jersey in New Brunswick, New Jersey. He is President of the American Hungarian Educators Association, and External Member of the Hungarian Academy. He earned a PhD at Indiana University, and his ongoing research focuses on the exodus of Hungarians from their homeland after the 1956 Revolution.

SIMPSON HISTORICAL RESEARCH CENTER OFFICE OF AIR FORCE HISTORY Headquarters USAF UNITED STATES AIR FORCE ORAL HISTORY PROGRAM I n t ervi ew of Maj Gen Richard L. Meiling BY Capt Mark C. Cleary Date: 25-28 October 1982 Location: Maxwell AFB, Alabama Edited and Transcribed by Beth F. Scott ORAL HISTCRY TRWSCRIPT ACCESS GRANTED DATE- I I FOREl’iORD One of the oldest and oft-used sources for reconstructing the past is the personal recollections of the individuals who were involved. While of great value, memoirs and oral interviews are primary source documents rather than finished history. The following pages are the personal remembrances of the interviewee and not the official opinion of the US Air Force Historical Program or of the Department of the Air Force. The Air Force has not verified the statements contained herein and does not ;issume any responsibility for their accuracy. These pages are a transcript of an oral interview recorded on magnetic tape. Editorial notes and additions made by US Air Force historians have been enclosed in brackets. When feasible, first names, ranks, or titles have been provided. Only minor changes for the sake of clarity were made before the transcript was returned to the interviewee for final editing and approval. Readers must therefore remember that this is a transcript of the spoken, rather than the written, word.
