EACH EVENING, | DEC. 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 Xe might be part of the loot taken from a, Pennsylvania Railroad train near here in an early-morn- ing holdup in 1909. Th uncovered “‘loot” consists of about 3,700 Lincoln head pennies which old-timers say the train robber mistook for pieces of gold. Police said about a million dol- lars in gold bullion was being carried on the train from Washing- ton to Cincinnati when it was dynamited to a stop. The gunman, however, got into the wrong car and ended up with several sacks of pennies. John A. Dubendorf, Lewistown; his brother Albert, of Middletown; and Charles E. Bell, of Maitland, found the coins while scurrying through the ‘woods last week in search of deer. “We kept the find a secret until we could thoroughly search the area for the gold we thought might be hidden there,” Albert told a newsman. The three men said they learned of the train robbery through read- ing an old newspaper account which mentioned the name of Mer- rill Dayis, then a patrolman for the PRR. The contacted Davis and he filled them in on the details of the robbery, which took place near where the coins were found. Davis surmised the gunman checked the loot in the woods and after going through most of the bags and finding nothing but pen- nies, left them there and fled. A bag of gold, he said, was found unopened. The finders divided the coins equally and said they will hold onto them until they are given some definite legal orders to turn By WILLIAM L. RYAN AP Foreign News Analyst The Communist satellite nations of Eastern Europe appear to have cooked up an economic fiasco so serious that it is inspiring under- ground political opposition to the Red regimes, qualified observers report. ; A New Course has been imposed in each of the satellite nations — Bulgaria, Romania, Hungary, Czechoslovakia, Poland, Albania apd East Germany. This requires easing off in the fever drive to- ward industrialization in an at- tempt to meet the population’s urgent needs. But Communist bu- reaucracy and economic facts of life ‘have got in the way. Hungary is a prime example of the ,economie chaos which has come about after years of domi- natjon by Stalinist Communists who now are being ordered — probably by Moscow — to mend their ways. There are guarded reports from Hungary Czechoslo- vakia and other areas too of an apparently dangerous “‘political underworld” — that is, a still lusty Opposition to the regimes. Travelers from Budapest report the balloon leaflet campaign of the Crusade for Freedom — which operates Radio Free Europe — has had striking success. The leaf- lets released by a device carried on the balloons have spurred de- mands upon the Hungarian govern- ment for more concessions to priv- ate craftsmen and for more atten- tion to the everyday needs of the Hungarian’ public. Observers of the American or- | Sanization report they have the impression. now “that foreign troops and the still:enforced pres- tige of the Soviet empire have be- come the chief support of Commu- nist rule” in Hungary. | Behind the crisis in Hungary was | the fevered drive — as in the other | Satellite nations — to industrialize the country regardless of consumer needs. Hungary was to become-a “country of iron and steel.” Under the New Course, the Com- munist regime has orderéd a meas- | ure of curtailment of heavy indus- try in favor of the light industry which will produce goods urgently needed by the public, and in favor of agriculture even on a private seale.
