Produkcija premoga v Porurju padla Washington. D. C.. 20. jan — Velika Britanija je odprto opozorila vojni in državni department, da mora Amerika nasiče-vati Nemce v skupni okupacijski coni, kjer je pomanjkanje živil povzročilo stavke. Opozorilo je v noti, katero je podpisal britski zunanji minister Ernest Bevin. Državni department je naznanil, da bo upošteval opozorilo in nasvete diplomatov in generalov. Pričakuje se, da bosta državni in vojni department pritiskala na kongres, naj dovoli dodatne vsote za kritje stroškov pošiljanja živil in drugih potrebščin v Nemčijo. Kongres je prvotno dovolil potrošnjo $600,-000,000 za pomoč prebivalcem v okupacijskih conah. Dodatna vsota $340,000,000 je bila dovoljena pozneje. Od skupne vsote naj bi šlo $639,000,000 za nakupe in pošiljanje lita in drugih živil v Nemčijo. Vojni department bo moral pozvati kongres, naj sankcionira potrošnjo $300,000,000 za na-sičevanje Nemcev v prihodnjih mesecih fiskalnega leta. Za prihodnje fiskalno lete, ki se prične Amerika naj dobi baze o Barueh brisal protiinflacijski načrt Washlngtoo. D. C., 20. jan.— Bernard M. Baruch, star kapitalist In svetovalec predsednikov Združenih držav v prvi in drugi svetovni vojni, je dejal, da mora Amerika dobiti vojaške baze v zapadni Evropi v zameno za pomoč, katero bodo države v. zapadni Evropi dobile na podlagi Marshallovega načrta. Njegov predlog je v konfliktu s stališčem državnega tajnika, ki je zadnjo soboto dejal, da odstopi tev baz ne sme biti uključena v načrt kot pogoj ameriške pomoči zapadni Evropi. M&rshal-lov načrt predvideva potrošnjo sedemnajst milijard dolarjev za ekonomsko okrevanje in rehabilitacijo Šestnajstih držav v zapadni Evropi v prihodniih štirih letih. Baruch je sugeriral tudi ustanovitev nove agenture, ki naj bi upravljala in nadzirala izvajanje pomožnega načrta. Državni tajnik Marshall se je izrekel proti vsem omejitvam glede vodstva in kontrole trošenja denarja. Baruch je naatopil pred člani senatnega odseka za zunanje zadeve, čigar načelnik Je senator Vandenberg, republikanec Iz Mi-chigana. ZasllŠa nje o Marshal-lovem načrtu pred odsekom se je pričelo pred dvema tednoma. V teku diskuzij o bazah je Baruch omenil, da je Velika Britanija dobila baze v Iranu in na otoku »Cipru, na drugi strsni pa je vrgla v naročje Amerike Grčijo, Turčijo in Palestino. Poleg 1. julija, je bila določena vsota $1,250,000,000. Amerika je morala prevzeti odgovornost za nasičevanje Nemcev v britski okupacijski coni. To je glavni vzrok naglega črpanja skladov. Pomanjkanje živil v Nemčiji ni povzročilo presenečenja. Kriza se je poostrila zaradi stavk v Porurju in drugih krajih Nemčije. Delavci so zastavkali v znak protesta proti nizkim odmerkom živil. Državni department je zvrnil delno odgovornost za pomanjkanje živil na nemške kmete. Obdolžil jih je, da nočejo pošiljati živil v mesta in industrijska središča za nasičevanje delavcev, zaeno pa je moral priznati, da je živilska situacija kritična. Produkcija premoga v Porurju je padla na 236,000 ton dnevno v januarju, kar je znižanje za 17 odstotkov v primeri s produkcijo v novembru lanskega leta. Vozniki avtobusov za-stavkali v Springfieldu Springfield, 111., 20. jan.—Vozniki avtobusov so zastavkali proti Springfield Transportation Co. Pridružili so se jim tudi maha-niki, uposlenl v garažah kompa-nije.' Stavka je bila oklicana, ko so se pogajanja glede sklenitve nove pogodbe razbila. Vozniki in mehaniki so člani u-nije Ameriške delavske federacije. Zahtevali so zvišanje plače in druge koncesije od kom-panije. Togliatti zanikal poročila o zaroti Rim, 20. jan.—Palmlro Togliatti, vodja komunistične stranke, je odločno zanikal poročila, da so komunisti skovali zaroto, ki naj bi preprečila splošne volitve v aprilu.

Teoretično inlegslno spada ves ta denar zavarovancem.

Kot pravi Stewart, so v primeri s tem velebiznisom vse druge veleindustrije — svtna, jeklarska, filmska sli kstera koli — "pritllkavčki majhnega pomena." V taki koncentraciji finančnega kapitala kakor ga predstavljajo komercialne zavarovalninske družbe Je naravno koncentrirana tudi velikanska ekonomska moč; ne samo gospodarska, marveč tudi politična. Znano namreč Je, da kdor ima v rokah gospodarsko moč, tisti odločs tudi v poUtiki — o notrsnjlh ln zunanjih smernicah vlade ln dežele. In kdor Ima v rokah oboje: gosjtodar-sko in politično moč, tisti narekuje deželi tudi vzgojo, posebno politično vzgojo in kulturo. Toda naj damo besedo Stewartu ro. ■■ Torej, rojaki, pridite do zad-. njega na veselico in vam ne bo žal. Veselja bo r.a Me! Kar se pa tiče društvenega življenja, pa je vko po starem. Naše društvo šteje 75 članov v odraslem in 20 v mladinskem oddelku, ksr ni ravno slabo za tako majhno naselbino kot je ienosha. Nove člane je težko dobiti, to pa iz razloga, ker se mladina dovolj ne zanima za društvo, stari pa se staramo. Bolnikov pa imamo po vremenu, včasih več, včasih manj Na decembrski seji je bil izvo ljen ves stari odbor- in sicer Predsednica Mary Kastelle, pod predsednica Agnes iirovat, taj nik Fr.

V sredo, 4. februarja, bodo tukaj predvajane kino-slike iz Jugoslavije. Slike bodo kazane v German American Homeu. Ta dvorana je vsem znana. Začetek ob pol osmih zvečer. Vstopnina samo 50c na osebo.

Kot rečeno, znaša skupno premoženje 350 družb, ki se pečsjo z z življensko zavarovalnino, okrog 51 milijard dolarjev. "Toda ekonomska moč, ki je spojena s Investiranjem tega d«iarja, je v ro-kah majhne skupine mož. ki kontrolirajo večje kompanije," pravi pisec članka v Natlonu.

Mnenja smo, naj bi se vrnili nazaj vsi privadrani trabanti, kjer naj bi poravnali krivice, ki so jih prizadeli narodu. ^avedamo se, da bo tožba povzročila veliko stroškov na obeh straneh. Mnogo od teh dolarjev bi lahko dali v pomoč ljudstvu v sUri domovini, katero še vedu no potrebuje naših tismiljenih src. Ako bodo ti privandrovci triumfirali, bodo s tem le odjed-li pomoč malim otročičem, ki vsled pomanjkanja bolehajo za tuberkulozo, da, tudi tam jih bo narod zapisal v knjigo trajnega spomina. Mi stojimo na stališču, da se ne sme odstopiti ntti za las od naših principov in da se ne pri zna nobene odškodnine, pač pa doprinese dokaze. Pozneje bi» morali tudi zahtevati, da taki jrlvandrovci, ki imajo za seboj dvomljivo prošlost, ne bi smeli dobiti dovoljenja za vstop v to deželo.

Prosila je že tudi člane in članice društva Pioneer in se }ih je že nekaj odzvslo. Prepričsn sem, da se bodo tudi naši člani izkazali kot humanitarni sama-ritanci za sestro Grum. Za darovanje krvi se prijsvi-te v bolnišnici University, 1819 W. Polk st., soba št. 375. Ure: od pondeljka do petka od 9. zjutraj do 4. ure popoldne, v soboto od 9.-11. ure dopoldne, v nedeljo od 3.-5. ure popoldne, v torek in petek tudi od 7.-9. ure zvečer. Sestra Grum je zvesU članica Slavije, kakor tudi njena družina, zato je več kot prav, da jI* pomagamo v njenem kritičnem položaju. Ob tej priliki opozarjam vse tiste člane, ki imajo še r', liianski fašizem tako tiral. V tej izborni komediji nastopijo vsi priznani in dobri Cankarjevi igralci in igralke in s tem je uspeh igre že zagotovljen. Dominika Piškurja, posestnika in vaškega štacunarja, predstavlja Frank Kokal; njegovo ženo Uršo pa Josephine Mi-lavec-Levstik. Njun sin je Stanley Marin, ki je pred kratkim prišel iz Slovenije. To je ena družina. Soseda Lipeta Korena igra Frank Plut, hjegovo ženo Frances lic. Ta dva pa imata hčerko, katero bo igrala Joyce Gor-she-Plemel. Nastopi tudi pismo, noša Slmelj, Andrew Turkman Petronilo Logar igra Ema Oblak-Plemel, Fani. njeno hči. nata karico, pa,Olga Marn.

Naj omenim da nekaj igralcev v tej igri živi jako daleč od S N," D.; na primer Jack in Ema Plemel živita 16 milj '»d SND. Frank Kokal in Olga Marn pa 9 milj od SND in vendar se vsi potrudijo in prihajajo redno ^k vajam v To je že precej nadpovprečnega požrtvovanja in navdušenja za naše dramsko dru štvo Ivan Cankar, ki ga dopri-našajo ti naši dobri igralci in igralke.

Na tem koncertu bo zopet v vi&ave donela slovenska pesem iz grl tukaj izvežbane mladine in Htarih pevcev, ki jih poučuje eden najboljiih milwauftkih pe-vovodij. Pevci se z velikim veseljem in požrtvovalnostjo trudijo, da se kar najpopolnejfte ugladijo za ta nastop. Poleg pevvkih točk bo na programu tudi več drugih, kot vsakovrstna telovadba in razni umetni&ki prizori. Torej bo dosti lepega razvedrila za vse. Naie narodne pesmi ne smemo opustiti, zato je dolžnost nas vseh, da posftims nuš koncert in okorajftimo pev^r /a nadaljne gojenje lepe slovensko pesmi. Za ples bo igral Louis Bashell in njegov orkester, na&e gospodinje in natakarji pa bodo vsem postregli, tako du ne bo nihče ne lačen in ne žejen. Na veselo svidenje na Naprejevem koncertu! Anton Tratnik. ce z Rupnikom in ikofom Rož-manom na £elu. Po6ten človek kar ne more verjeti, da se najdejo ljudje, ki bi tako zverinsko mučili svoje lastne brate in sestre, kot so to delali domobranci, škof Rožman jih je pa za njih ostudno delo blagoslavljal. Ne vem, kakien Bog bi toleriral in upošteval take božje namestnike. Slike kažejo mučeniika tru pla, ki so vsa razmesarjena in polomljena. Vse to se je godilo samo zato, da bi reakcija ¿e nadalje izkoriščala naš narod. Na priredbi smo videli tud mnogo naiih prijateljev, mec njimi Kokličg, ki je pobira vstopnice, Teluuoa iz Canons burga, Ambrožiča in njegovo soprogo iz Runa, prav tako iz istega mesta Jennie Jeralo in Glažarja. Po 17 letih smo videli Johna Kluna,, On je doma iz Misleč na Primorskem, tukaj pa živi v Bishopu, Pa. f Člani in tajniki, pozor!

Pa.—Our first meet-1 mg of the year was held Jan. 4 at I p. m-. not too well attended, prob-1 ably because everyone was resting after the hilarious holiday season. We are sure we will have practically a 100% attendance next meeting. Then too, there seems to be ajnix-up in the men bowling and meeting -time. Let's show a little cooperation in this respect. As men take more active part in most sports, they should be at the meetings, so that we can elect uthletic commit tees from active members in order that we may carry on our sports activities. Old business was finished under 1947 pfficers who, by the way, have done a wonderful job. We sometimes don't realize the many thankless duties officers must perform. Let us resolve While the year is still young not to criticize our officers or afiyone for that matter, unless it is just. We should be grateful for the few who are big enough in heart to undertake these jobs. They are trying to do their very best and do, and it should be good enough for the rest of us. Let us have teamwork and cooperation given, freely and cheerfully. Shall we? "You betcha!" ' • We want to thank our former officers from the bottom of our hearts for their splendid work. (All officers from way back when we started; they must have been good leaders.) Just think how much progress has been made. Facts speak for themselv^i. Not to show discrimination as every officer has done a swell job, but we do think that Frank Tomsic and Frances Pod-boy should be on our honor roll for their many years of faithful service ln their respective offices. New officers were installed; they are: Henry Mavrich, president; Elsie Kosmach, vice pres.; Frances Podboy, secretary; Frank Kaminski, treas.; Agnes Curtis, recording sec'y. (Podboy, Kaminski, Curtis were reelected.) Mrs. Albena Yarkosky, director of Juvenile Activities, and Mary Qhesnik, Circle Manager. Agnes Curtis. Mildred Krulce and Mary Chesnik are the auditing committee. , ,, The house committee are Henry Mavrith, Frances Podboy. Frank Kaminski, James Tomsic, Tony Pro-gar, Joe Koklich, Angelo Grosso. Entertainment comm. are Frank Podboy, Ann Kaminski, Elsie Kosmach, Harry Kaminski, Jennie Kosmach, Agnes Curlla. Publicity comm., Mary KovaJ. * We closed the meeting with Julia Ahac winning the 82 door prize. The entertainment committee have a wonderful Valentine Party planned for Saturday, Feb. 14. More details on this later, but' keep that date open. One thing for sure, they booked the very popular Fcank Kle-menclc orchestra from Brlflgeville. They had to book him 'way ahead or be disappointed. By the way, you can enjoy his music every Sundsy evening at the SNPJ Hall. Apparently everyone does, witnessing the terrific crowds there every Sunday. We predict the same popularity for him as Frankie Yankovic enjoys. And by the way. don't fail to listen to the Slovene hr. over WLOA, a Braddock station, at 11 m. on Jan. 18 which will feature Strabane day, * Bowling Buzzes: Mixed double« in bowling will take place Jan. 24. This is proving to be a very popular annual affair. So put your names in early enough to the bowling al ley manager, Mike Curtis, or Frsnk Kamimkt, snd they will give you detsils. One needn't be a champion bowler to enter. Do your best and you will have fun. Also a chance at the prizes. The Tanker« won the 1st half of the bowling sesson in the men's division The girls' league haven't finished their 1st half as yet, but we are positive that the Reds won't win it.

A com mittee has been selected to get the groundwork done. They are Ida Kaein, Mary Yurgec and Tillte Du-cate. I have a lot of confidence in their ability and feel assured that our plans'for the. Circle are In capable' hands. Good luck, giTls We'll be glad to cooperate in any way possible. Brothers John Spiller and John Yurgec were elected to represent us at the Slavic-American organize tion. Bro. SpiUer reporta that the SANC is giving a dance at the Lie derkranz Hall on May 1. So keep the date open and make it a point to attend. • A committee has been selected for our Spring Dance. They are Odella Markoff, Frank Mahnich, Joseph Johnson, Leroy Hervatin and Sophie Vertovsek. As the Concordia hall is not available for spring the committee immediately scouted around for a suitable hall. I am very happy to announce that we have booked the Liederkranz Hall, Grand Blvd. and Flad ave. for Saturday, May 8. So mark your célendars right now and keep that date for the Spirit May Dance. Looks like the committed didn't let any grass grow under their feet but really got busy immediately.

Thanks to Bowlers John Yurgac, John Lasterni* and Albert Kacin; they were the ones that steered the affair. We had a little social after the meeting. Champion coffee brewer Geo Markoff was on the Job and he served us delicious coffee and sandwiches. Thanks, George. If there were such a thing as an honorary membership in our organization, I'm sure you would be unanimously elected as an honor member in our lodge. The Ducate trio furnished the music for the party.

We received Edward Podbevsek by transfer and transferred out Jean Martinjak. The attendance was reg ronably good, considering every thing. Paul Chapman, the new president, promises to make things hum in 1948 for the Pioneers. • « • All Pioneer bowlers who do not bowl with the Pioneer league but wish to compete in any of the SNPJ tournaments should let us know soon. We want to send representatives to the Eastern invitational tournament at Cleveland, a full contingent to the Midwest tourney and certainly a good group to the National tournament. Some may want to bowl only in the Pioneer tournament which is scheduled for Sunday, April 11, and which will be the only handicap bowling tournament among the SNPJ groups. As reported, the Pioneer tournament will be for teams only. Entry blanks will be sent out just as soon as things are fairly settled for the Midwest tournament.—Our regular bowling league is continuing in its stride. The teams are closely bunched and the lead in the league can be taken over by most any team yet. Many Individual bowlers are gradually improving their averages. Some are having difficulty In holding on, because the alleys are a tittle tougher than the average. see Mary Hougen of Berea, Ky>, was the first to respond by paying for all four of her Valentine dance tickets. It's unlikely that Mary will be here for the dance, but this is her way of supporting the Pioneer activities. We are* thankful to her.

Mike tells us that he took a short vacation and visited some fit the neighboring towns, including Fontana. — The American Slav Congress calls on the Slavs of this country to promote the program they hove fostered in an effort to enlifhten the American people on the entire situation in Europe.

Naturally, all employees in the industry will benefit it the CIO Electrical Workers go after their demands and obtain them. It would be well that the workers at Western Electric gradually become acquainted with the idea of Joining one of the bona-fide labor organizations. As it is now, they are supporting a company union, because that's what their union actually is. People everywhere should recognize that the actual bona-fide Labor Unions are responsible for the standard of living in this country. That's why these unions should be supported. e e e Freedom of the Pres« and Human Right« are reported on WJJD (1180 on your dial) every Sunday at 10 a. m. by the Chicago Civil Liberties -Committee.

Sometimes we wonder if there ii any hope for the people to really support their own publications, the kind that promote the efforts of the tremendous majority of the common people. Most of the tinrte, they support newspaper« and publications which work against the best interetss of the common people. Some of us are supporting In Fact, Progressive World, New Republic, T St T, etc. I feel positive that this would be a different world if the people would support their own press and that the new« would definitely be free and the conclusions u whole lot different.

Approximately 3S0 children received treats of candy, nuts, popcorn and oranges. The Youth of America, Juvenile Circle 47, trimmed the Christmas tree, and with the background of cceffolding and all that goes with a remodeling job. I couldn't help but think of how progressive the Slovenes are in our locality, and much credit is due the youngar element on their Interest. The Moxham Slovene Bund made their first appearance at this Christ-maa affair; after about 18 years they reorganised, and it was a thrill to hear them again. I must say it sure brought back old memories. I wish to extend my congratulations to this group, and say—never let it die. The Juvenile Circle entertained thf group with earois and other musical selection» by the Kaushep twins snd Frank Miklavcie Jr. Ia past articles I had reported the remodeling job of the Moxham Slo vene Hall as nearly completed, and because of various setbacks.

Emotions nurtured by that trial are still running strong in Roman Catholic circles. Before we left America,' our delegation had been sent copies of the Catholic Universe Bulletin of Cleveland, Ohio, which, among other charges. Mid that Stepinac "is at present, according to our best information. slowly starving on an inadequate diet." Also, on the weekend in which we entered Jugoslavia, Cardinal Oriffin of Westminster, in the same public address to which we have already alluded in the previous section, charged the Jugoslav government with starving and working the Archbishop W> death in prison. Such rumors and accusations have been helping to increase the tension between the United States and Jugoslavia, and to heighten the discord between East and West. If they were true, wa wished to know that fact; our group believed that if they were not true, the general public should be so informed in behalf of better international relations. Lepoglava Prison wss little different from sny penitentiary in the United States. There were sentry-boxes and tommy-guns along the wall, exactly like Sing Sing Prison at Osainlng, New York. When we filed into Stepinac's special room—not in the main cellblock or actually a call, but adjoining the warden's office-—we found an immaculate whitewashed room about twelve to fifteen feet square, flooded with sunlight from two windows. We were frsnkly surprised to find the Archbishop not in prison stripes but wearing his cassock. He was standing by a smsll table in the center of the room. On it was a portable typewriter at which he apparently had been working when we interrupted him. He was engaged in typing a commentary on the Old Testament in the Croatian language. Against the wall, opposite the table, were bookahelves in which were perhaps tifty reference and theo-logical volumes. Before visiting the prison, we hsd agreed among ourselves that since our primary purpose was to ascertain the truth or falsity of the rumors sbout his trestment and consequent condition, we would not ask him about his trial, unless he himself initiated the subject. At first he was reluctant to answer questions addressed to him through the interpreter but said that if one <>f our group would speak to him in French, German or Italian, he would reply. Two members of our group then asked him the questions on which we had agreed, in German and in French, Asked whether the food was satisfsctory, he ssid, The food is very good." Concerning his physicsl condition, he replied, "I have been blessed with good health all the time 1 have been here." (The two medical men. who were members of our party, agreed that his appearance gave direct confirmation to his answer.) In reply to another question, he said. "I celebrate Mass every day. It is my greatest consolation." When Dr. Nusa be urn Introduced himself aa representing his organization, speaking In French, and asked Stepinac if there were any restrictions on hia religious liberty in priaon. he answered. "No, there are no restrictions." Dr. Nussbaum added: "And do you have religious books?" To this Stepinac replied: "1 have the Bible in Latin and in Croatian, and I have other religious books." As we were leaving, he said, "1 thank you for your visit." Stepinac made no objection to being photographed by our members. After leaving Stepinac. we were shown Into a room next door, which was fitted up as his private chapel There was a fully equipped altar of daik wood This also was photographed by members of our group. We leff the prison convinced by what we had )uat seen and heard that the charges of "starvation" and conviction that Germany would win the war. WHAT THE DOCUMENTS SHOWED The documents show that when the Italians and Germans swept into Jugoslavia, underground bands of previously organized Roman Catholic laymen, calling themselves "Crusaders." and aided by individual priests und militant monks, rose to receive the invaders. Two men responsible for the assassination of King Alexander at Marseilles in 1034 and since that time harbored by Mussolini in Italy for this very occasion, Ante Pavalich (convicted for this crime both io French and Jugoalav courts) and Zlatko Kvaternik, were brought into the country to become the puppet President and the military commander of S quisling government to be called "The Independent State of Croatia." This move was greeted by the Romsn Catholic diocesan press in Zagreb aa the establishment of a Catholic state on the corporative pattern advocated in the Papal Encyclicals; it was praised without qualification as the church's bulwsrk against "atheistic materialism." The church leaders apparently were not restrained by the fact that a Jugoslav government was legally In existence and that remnants of its army were still fighting. Pavellch and Kvaternik, with the help of their German, Italian and "Crusader" soldiers, proceeded to carry our the German-fponsored racial program which advocated the solidifying of a Croatian community by eliminating sush minorities as the Jews and Gypsies.Teduclng the number of Serbs living in Croatia, and compelling those remsining to turn Romsn Cstholic. Nearly 70,000 of the 80,000 Jews In the entire country were killed or forced to flee, their property being confiscsted. 240,000 Serbs became Byzantine Rite Roman Catholics through forced eon-versions, on pain of death. Those who resisted were shot or stabbed and their bodies thrown into mass-graves which were subsequently found and opened. We saw hundreds of sworn depositions sttesting to these crimes, msde out by relatives or eye-witnesses, snd slso, in a few esses, by survivors. Serbian church properties tyere seized and turned over to Ronun Catholie parishes-and convents/ Documents requesting and authorising such transfers are eow in the State Prose-cutor's offices at Zagreb and Sarajevo, bearing the personal signatures of Archbishop Stepinac of Zagreb and Archbishop Sharlch of Sarajevo. Roman Catholics who reelated or seriously denounced those activities were hounded, end the braver among them (including many priests sueh as Monsignor Ritig) fled to the mountains and joined the Partisan Movement. Such men are today honored in the new government snd entrusted with responsible posts. Wa talked with such Roman Catholic leaders, and they confirmed the truth of the hiatorical facta. Theae things happened in the diocese of which Aloysius Stepinac was the metropolitan—in the Roman Catholic Church the supreme and responsible authoilty—and furthermore, he actually served as. the Military Vicar of the U stash I armed forces which perpetrated the worst excesses, though, according to certain Roman Catholic journals, he personally counseled moderation. ' So confident were these Croat leaders that Hitler s "New Order" would survive, that they preserved the records of their own crimes. Whan the collapse finally came—it was relatively sudden In Croft la—theae state documents were taken for safe keeping to Stepinac's palace in the Kap-tol in Zagreb and he gave a personal receipt (which we saw) for their security A number of boxes Your Dollar By Consumers Union Telveision Receivers Television is still in its infancy with regard to quality of receivers, availability of service and quality of programs.

If that is the case, then the ghosts who inhabit "hard labor'—when one weighs the of Ustasht loot, consisting of gold implications of thoae words in the watches, rings, brareleta and even public mind as they have to do with dentures torn from the mouths of prison sentences—are unfounded To persist In spreading such charges is to seek deliberately to damage relations between Jugoslavia end the United States, and to endanger world peace The American public has little understanding of why Stepinac was arrested and convicted, due to lack of adequate informetion in the Am erican press The conviction of Stepinac was tieeed on nparly s thousand photo graphs and documents submitted to the court and shown to the reporters present, as well es the testimony of many witnesses In considering the Stepinac trial, it is eeeential t<> keep in mipd that his trial and con viction were tn fact the prosecution of on individual charted with sertoui collaboration with the enemy of his country: 'they had nothing to do with any persecution of hia own tfttorch or religion Among the documents we esam-ined we/* great number* of official Roman Cathode newspapers and periodicals frankly telling the story from month to month.' of the Arch bishop s collaboration with the Nazi victims, were found burled under the chancel of the Franclacan Monastery a block from Stepinac's cathedral. If one reads the record of the trial, which members of our group have done, one wlH find that the Abbot of the Monastery admitted the facta hut denied personal responsibility liecause he was acting on the oider» of his superiors, whom he refused to name. Stepinac, In turn, claimed he was not responsible for the acts of his subordinates In the total struggle in Jugoslavia 1,700.000 men, women and children perished A gieat number of theae were victims of a combination of the Italians anil Necta along with fanatical Catholie Croels who were determined to srt up a Catholic corporative state on the pattern of Spein under Franco. Italy under Musaolint and Slovakia under the aegis of Hitler. At his trial, Stepinac did not deny the truth of the material evidence produced bv the state—the photograph». the personally signed documents. and the sworn depositions— but reserved his defense until near the cloee of the trial At this point Pols today are extraordinarily lively. They live in the city's houses, wslk down its streets, eat (if somewhat scantily) in its restaurants and exchange extremely earthly conversation, most of it in a voluble, pungent Italian. As may be remembered, Pola won brief renown in the world preaa this summer, just before it was scheduled to be turned over to Jugoslavia under terms of the Italian peace treaty. A seaport almoat entirely occupied by Italians, Pols was nevertheless located at the tip of the Is-rtlsn peninsula in the northern Adriatic ses, snd most of the Istrian hinterland contained peasants of Jugoslav origin. As a consequence, the tregty-makers ruled that the whole peninsula should be tsken from Italy and turned over to Jugoslavia—much to the dismay of the people of Pola, who, according to press dispatches of the time, decided to desert their city en maaae, rather than remain under the rule of the Jugoslavs. Of the city's S3,-000 residents, the stories said, nearly SO,000 were moving/out, taking everything portable in the eity with them. - The writer is the first American to visit Pols since it hss come under Tito's "new democracy" and he can report that those reports were, to put It conservatively, considerably exaggerates. . There wss indeed sn exodus fron\ Pola and the refugees did take along with them Everything they could carry, Including the glass from their windows and the Me on their floors. However, of the city's 3S.000 inhabitants no number even Approaching 30,000 fled. While it is impossible to determine the exact number (the new Jugoslav masters Insist it was fewer than S.000) It Is safe to say that it did not exceed 15.000, the highest estimate given by the best-informed of the anti-Communist Italians who remained. Thus. Pole today la anything but dearetod. though many of its stores are stUl Shuttered and many of its homes picked eles'p. In addition to the 15,000 or more Itsllsns who remained, the Jugoslavs are bringing in some of their spm countrymen, chiefly as administrators, and numerous Croatian fan^Uies are srrivii)g from the barren, rocky hills of Is-trla.

The top grades of salmon are generally accepted as Chinook and Sockeye, followed by Coho, Pink and Chum, ln that order. But there is good and poor quality within each group. The food value qf salmon (protein, vitamins and minerals) is high regardless of grade, and canned selmon can make an excellent meat substitute. • 1» Water Softener* Consumers Union tests on wster softf^rs give first pjs« tc gon, a rather expensive softening agent which forms neither precipitste nor curd.

That la the subject of today's sermon. In a sense it is an apology, be- serviçe. cause we approach the subject with the clouded, snow-filled sky. A great financial journal, Barron's weekly, csused this to be written and despite the fact that the publication is a pillar of Wall Street thinking, it deserves its day in labor's court of opinion. The plush bottomed editors of Barron's are sorely troubled and disturbed these days over the President's Council of Economic Advisers and their recent report. All manner of thinga are wrong with both: viz: In one section the report suggested that management should accept responsibility to achieve economic stabilization by planning its Investment and operative programs. That, of course, was sheer heresy. Barron's has the floor: "How management can plan in a competitive system for any other purpose than that of the competitive struggle itself remains unanswered. Because it is unanswerable. In a competitive system stability cannot be achieved except from above or by collusion, either of which is a negation of competition." Responding to the suggestion that the U. S. might be better off with a more equal diatributlon of wordly goods. Barron's says thst this country has already seen "a revolution in the distribution of American Incomes." The paper moans we've already spread the wealth. Next comes an obaervation that "some people claim increaae ln productivity ahould accrue only to owners. No one maintains this view except the mythical oppressors In communist propaganda." Everybody knows, of course, that higher production under free enter-prlae ln America has continuslly and immediately been reflected ln the pay envelope of Joe Worker— that owners arc Insistent in this, frequently demanding the reopening of wage sections of union contracts to get this just upward adjustment of acalca Into writing. Rising again in indignation against the report. Barron's adds that "this ridiculous charge Is followed by the incredible slur that accumulations of capital over the years have been at the expenee of 'deprivation of the rank and file worker.' "On the contrary," the peper insista. "the whole hietory of American economic evolution ia marked by sharply increasing rewards for man-hour labor while capital haa been content with a relatively stagnant rato of return " See what we mean? We've all been ao confoeed. Those 1947 corporate profit flguree in the yesr-ssue of the New York Times other papers reflecting red propaganda were terribly in error... a feeling of humility not caused by 1947 was not a history high profit year. It was stsgnant . . . The Times' business pages were doing Joe Stalin's work, hurting the free enterprise system and our competitive economy. But the section of the report to Pres. Truman that most troubled Barron's was one it termed the "most disturbing little passage in thia report," as follows: -"If we are to schieve and stabilize maximum production, we must in the future have a much higher consumption in all the lower and middle ranks. The small number of well-to-do will not be able to absorb the possible output of consumers goods nor can they go on indefinitely accumulating ownership of the surpluses above their conaumer needs, and investing it in ever enlarging plant fpr future expansion of goods for some restricted part of Ibe population." That is from the CEA's report. We'll bet a sweaty dollsr that you who can't buy a new suit or dress, finance a 1948 model flivver, Ben-dix or Philco don't know what kind of error that is. It's a "repetition of Marxism's worst error," Barron's declares. "This repeata," Barron's continues, "what waa undoubtedly Karl Marx's most fooliah forecast. He said that under capitaliam the capitalista grow always richer and the workers slways poorer.** On the contrary, we wage earners know that we've piled savings sky high, that our wage rotes and salaries are booming, we eat sirloin steak until it comes out our esrs. But let Barron's go on: "Things have not happened that way anywhere at any time." It concludes that the statement of the advisers is "so irresponsible aa to ralee very serious questions sbout the useful-neaa of the council as . It Is now staffed and directed." Barron's wants a return to sound, free enterprise thinking! The manager had been giving his new secretory her instructions "And there's Just one thing more. Miss Jones." he said.
