Preiskava komunističnih aktivnosti
Eisler bo pozvan pred kongresni odsek
Washington. D. C« 22. okt.— Kongresni odsek za neameriške aktivnosti se je odločil za temeljito preiskavo komunističnih aktivnosti v deželi. Naznanil je, da bo pozval Gerharda Eislerja, o katerem je Louis F. Budenz dejal, da je direktor vseh komunističnih aktivnosti v Ameriki, naj nastopi pred odsekom. Eisler je zanikal Budenzovo ob-dolžitev.
Budenz, bivši urednik lista Daily Worker, glasila komunistične stranke, je pred enim letom izstopil iz stranke in se vrnil v katoliško cerkev. Sedaj je profesor ekonomije na univerzi Fordham. Budenz je dejal, da je bil Eisler znan pod imenom "Hans Berger." Pod tem imenom je pisal članke v glasilu komunistične stranke.
Kongresnik Wood, načelnik odseka za neameriške aktivnosti, je dejal, da datum za zaslišanje Eislerja še ni določen. Morda bo pozvan pred odsek 19. novembra. Takrat bo odsek zaslišal tudi Budenza.
Eisler je nameraval zapustiti Ameriko zadnji teden in odpotovati v Leipzig, Jlemčija, toda državni department je preklical dovoljenje za odhod v zadnjem momentu.
Vzpostavitev nemške ekonomske sile
Ofenziva britskega velebiznisa
London. 22. okt.—Britski vele-biznis je objavil dva razglasa, ki zaslužita splošno pozornost. Prvi očituje politiko v prilog restav-riranju ekonomske sile Nemčije in oživljen ju kartelov, drugi pa priprave za ofenzivo v interesu "svobodnega podjetništva" proti socialističnemu programu brit-ske delavske vlade.

Razglasa je objavila Zveza britskih industrij. Oba sta značilna, ker sta za oživljenje sistema kartelov in monopolov. Britaki industrijci so bili vodilna sila v obrambi tega sistema po zakl j učenju prve svetovne vojne.
Oba razglasa sta spisana v dvomljivem tonu, ki se lahko različno tolmači, toda resnični namen je razumljiv vsakemu, ki pozna zgodovino in ideje Zveze britskih industrij. Prvi dokument je bil objavljen po konferenci med britskimi in holand-skimi industrijci v Londonu. Ta naglaia potrebo oživljenja nem ške ekonomske sile, ki nai bi omogočilo in pospešilo rešitev nemških ekonomskih problemov
Za razumevanje implikacij dokumenta se je treba ozreti nazaj do avgusta L 1939 Takrat so reprezentanti Zveze britskih Industrij dospeli v Duesaeldorf. Nemčija, in »e pričeli pogajati za sklenitev tajnega pakta nemškimi industrijci, ki so obo-roževali Hitlerjevo vojno msši-no. Namen Je bil razdelitev j svetovnih tržišč med nacijskoi Nemčijo in Veliko Britanijo Pogajanja so se razbila, ker se J« Hitler odločil za vojno. Takratni predsednik britsk* vlsde Chamberlain Je spoznal, da bo Velika Britanija potrebovala ameriško pomoč To Je bil glav-ni vzrok, da kupčija nI bila sklenjena med britakimi in nemškimi induatrijci.
Odmevi iz jubilejne kampanje ProSvete
Kampanja se bliža svojemu cilju; v prihodnjih dneh bo sla "over the top" *
Naši agitatorji kakor tudi čitatelji bodo gotovo.veseli novice, da bo šla naša jubilejna kampanja za tisoč novih ^pročnikov "over the top". Do 16. oktobra je prinesla 986 novih naročnikov, od teh 875 celoletnih, ostali pa so polletni. Ko boste čitaj te vrstice, bodo naši pridni agitatorji že prekoračili ta cilj.
Naš "večni popotnik" Ton« Jankovich iz CLevt^nda je še vedno daleč v ospredju in bo brez vsakega dvoma odnesel zlato kolajno. Od zadnjega poročila se mu je kampanja aicer nekam zavrla, vendar pa je v tem poročilu zastopan z nadaljnjimi 13 novimi naročniki. Skupaj jih ima nič manj kot 212)
Več sreče sta od zadnjega poročila imela Frank Udovlch v Chi-cagu in Ros« Radovich v Pueblu, ki sta dobila vsak po 15 nadaljnjih novih naročnikov. Naš France jih ima skupaj ie 73, sestra Radovich pa 65. France je na tretjem, Rose pa na Četrtem mestu. Ker je med obema tekma za tretje mesto, smo radovedni, kako bo ta bitka izpadla. Br. Udovicha, ki je v agitaciji star maček, bo najbrže težko prekositi, toda sestra Radovich je zadnja leta že večkrat pokazala, da ji je malo kdo kos.
Na drugem mestu je Lojs« KUmenčič v Kanadi s 126 novimi naročniki. Od zadnjega poročila je prijavil tri nove. Kot Jankovich je tudi Lojze najbrže popolnoma "safe" na tem mestu. Vendar pa upamo, da to ni njegovo zaključno število—morda nas zopet preseneti tudi ob zaključku kampanje.
Veselo nas je iznenadil tudi br. J. Rosich, tajnik društva Lilijo (746) v Milwaukeeju, ki se je nedavno pridružilo jednoti. Br. Rozich je zadnje dni poslal 11 novih naročnikov, ki jih je pridobil med Lilijci. Še tri take pošiljke in bi bila akupaj z Lojs« tom Barborlčem. ki ima 43 zarez na svoji kampanjski puški— pet več kot v zadnjem poročilu. Lojze je na petam mestu. Dobro se je odrezal tudi Frank Klun v Chisholmu, ki je zopet poslal 6 novih naročnin—skupaj 20. Enako število jih tma1 tudi Joie Korslch Iz Detroita, od kjer se je Zopet oglasil s parom. Ton« Zornlk jih ima 27—tri več kot pred par tedni, Frank T«hornlk iz Detroita pa 23—dva več kot zadnjič. S Korslčem jo kar dobro orjeta!
Naj zopet posežemo v Cleveland, od kjer sta se oglasila vsak s tremi novimi naročninami John Gabrenja. veteranski tajnik
društva 126, in F. Sustarsich. ki Že tudi tajnikuje j>r<*ej 1** društvu 142. Iz metropole se je z novim narednikom zopet oglasil tudi Ton« Ž«l«saik. tajnik društva 139, ki jih ima skupaj štiri. Po eno nadaljnjo naročnino so poslali tudi Frank Cvetan iz Johns-towna, Pa,—skupaj 12, Ton« Val«ntin&č od Sharona, Pa.—skupaj 10, Helen Sternlsha ir Jolitta, 111.—skupsj 8, John Bajuk iz South Chicaga—skupaj 5, sestra Doak iz Rock Springsa, Wyo.—skupaj 5.
Pri ostalih agitatorjih ni spremembe. Skupno število agitatorjev je 167. Od teh jih je 23 dobilo po dva, 104 po enega, 40 pa po tri ali več.
Za našo jubilejno kampanjo preostaja ie še nekaj dni. Oficialno se konča 31. oktobra ali prihodnji četrtek. Ni več dosti časa, vendar pa še dovolj, da bi lahko pridobili še par sto novih naročnikov, to je, ako bi šel kdo na delo tudi pri onih društvih in v onih naselbinah, od kjer do danes še ni bilo nobenega odziva, nobenega glasu, nobenega novega naročnika na naš delavakj usmerjeni dnevnik Prosvete. Teh naselbin in teh društev Je še presenetljivo dosti—vsaj 400, ako ne več. Apeli na papirju najbrže dosti ne zaležejo, ako sploh kaj, vendar pa se pred zaključkom kampanje še enkrat obračamo do naših zvestih JednotarJev posebno po onih naselbinah, od kjer^lo zdaj še ni bilo glasu. In sicer je naš aoel, da bi v Dreostalih dneh jubilejne kampanje skušali v vsaki naselbini, pri vsakem društvu dobiti vsaj »nega, dva nova naročnika. Naprej za vaš dnevnik Prosveto!

Češka izjava o prt* trganju pogajanj
Amerika zamolčala polovico resnice
Paris. 22. okt.—Ameriški dr žavni department je tako vnet za pritisk na Čehoslovakijo, ker je bila na strani Rusije in drugih slovanskih držav in glasovala z njimi na mirovni konferenci, da je povedal le polovico resnice glede pretrsanja pogajanj kreditu $50,0tH),000 ameriške Export-Import banke Čehoalova-kiji, drugo polovico resnice pa je zamolčal. Tako so Izjavili Češki krogi v Parizu.
Oba razloga, katara je državni department omenil v naznanilu o pretrganju pogajanj, sta po mnenju Cehov izzivalna, Naslednje je češka stran povesti, ki ni bila razkrita v Washington u:
Državni department je obdolžil Čehoslovskijo, ds je nameravala prodati Rumuniji pravilno ameriško lastnino, ki je bila izročena Čehom kot kredit. Resnica je, da je Ameriks sugerl-rala ln celo zahtevala od Čeho-slovakije, naj se iznebi lastnine na ts način. Nssvet je dal Če-hoslovakiji reprezentsnt ameriškega zakladnega departments Taylor, ko so Čehi Izjavili, ds nočejo previžnsga ameriškega materlaVs. Dejal Je, naj prevzamejo ves material, da sa olajša trsnsakclja, potem pa naj ga prodajo bivši sovražni državi.
Čehi so potem pristali na sugestijo reprezentanta zakladne-ga departmenta, tod« vso stvar ja vetiral Leurenee Btelnhardt,
ameriški poslsnlk v Pragi, ne Iz načelnega rszloga, temveč Iz razloga, ker so Čehi nsmeravali dodati sedem odstotkov zs prevozne stroške Rumuniji nsme-njenega blaga.
Državni department ja obdolžil Čehoslovakijo, da noče plačati primerne odškodnine sa podržavljeno imetje ameriških državljanov. Resnica Je, da Čehi doslej sploh niso plačali odškodnine, tods krivda je Amerike. Državni department je bil pozvan, nsj oceni vrednost lasrfti-ne ln predloži račun, kstengs bi Čahoslovskija takoj plačala. Ameriška skcljs Je v bistvu prelom ekonomskih odnošajev s Čehoslovakijo in v soglasju s politiko trde pesti državnega tajnika Byrnesa proti slovanskim državam.
Slovaški zunanji minister Vlado Clementis je po zaključe nju mirovne konf«rence v Parizu odpotoval v Prago. On Je dejsl, da je na eni plenarni seji aplavdiral ruskemu zunanjemu ministru Molotovu, ko Je kritiziral ameriško ekonomsko politiko Clementis je sedel v bil žini ameriškega državnega taj nika Byrnesa. Slednji se je obr nil do svojih tovsrlšev in izre kel opazko: "Ako Čehi ne marajo ameriškega kapitala, bomo skrbeli, da ga ne bodo dobili."

"NAft GOSPOD ŽUPNIK"
Cleveland. Ohlo-Naia publi-ka se bo gotovo razveselila novice, da ji bo zopet dana prili ka videti eno najlepših iger i našem repertoarju in to je igra "Naš gospod župnik," ki bo podana v nedeljo zvečer, 27. oktobre, v Slovenskem narodnem domu na St. Clair ave.
Vsaka igra ima svoje težkoče in za vsako igro je treba več priprav in skrbi kot si marsikdo predstsvljs.
V prvi vrsti je trebs pogoditi prsve karakterje. Ako je režiser tako srečen, da Ima na razpolago zaželjeno osebje, je njegovo srce na mestu in zagotovljen je, da bo igra uspešna.
Malokdaj pa nanese prilika pri diletantskih odrih, da bi se dplo vse vloge v prave roke. Z velikimi še nekako gre, z manjšimi pa ne veš kam.
Slučaj in sreča sta nanesla, da nam bo v tej igri v vseh ozi-rih zadoščeno. Med nami imamo še par krepkih stebrov iz starejše in tudi par močnih stebrov iz mlajše generacije, na katere se ds še računati.
Pravijo, da kdor Je bil enkrat igralec, bo ostal zvest odru za vselej. To se včasih v polni meri uresniči; včssih pa ne gre, tudi če si tega želiš.
Radi vseh neprilik, katere si moremo predočiti in radi nesebičnega udejstvovanja naših i-gralcev, moramo priti do sklepa, da je res vredno podpreti in po-sečati naše kulturne priredbe.
Za vzgled si lahko vzamemo dramski zbor "Ivan Cankar." Kadar je treba finančno podpreti kako dobrodelno organizacijo, ae naselbina obrne do naše skupine in vselej je uslišana. Ivan Cankar bo podal že četrto predstavo v pomoč našim potrebnim v Jugoslaviji* Tudi to pot bo igral pod avspicijo podružnice št. 39 SAN$a, kar pomeni, da bo preostanek te prireditve izročen tej podružnici.
Naši ljubitelji dramskih predstav naj se kar pripravijo na lepo presenečenje, katero jih čaka prihodnjo nedeljo z vprizo ritvijo igre "Naš gospod župnik".
Naslovno ali glavno vlogo bo igral John Steblaj. Vsak Igralec si želi ponovno igrsti vlogo, v kateri je bil najbolj uspešen. On je bil uspešen neštetokrat v dobi svoje igralske kariere. Toda v tej vlagi.se je ljudatvu priljubil, ker ga predstsvljs kot pravo dobričino, ki živi in dela le sa dobrobit svojih župljanov. Takega idealnega župnika mora biti res užitek igrsti. Kdor po-zns Steblsjeve zmožnoati, ve kaj ima od njega pričakovati.
Za njim pride na vrsto z najdaljšo vlogo Olga Marnova, i-gralka od pet do glave. Marsikatera ne bi sploh hotela Igrati razuzdane in lahkožive pariške lahkoživke. Toda ne ona! Kot Steblaj si je tudi ona zaželela doživljati in znova pokazati vse svoje številne igralske trike in zmožnosti. Iz te igre je ne boste nikdar pozabili.
Njenega moža bo za spremembo igral sam Frank Česen, e-
den najbolj priljubljenih članov "Cankarja". Pogoditi bo mogel tip nič kaj intelektualnega poli tika in vojnega dobičkarja. Nje gova prva in zadnja misel je, kako se bahati. Vsega tega ni ma naš priljubljeni Česen (dese ti brat) v sebi, toda v igri je že pri prvi vaji pokazal, da do pi čice razume svojo vlogo.
Ker je to prava in poučna so cialnu igra, ki kaže dobro tn sla bo stran človeške družbe, bo nudila veliko zadoščenje tudi Ostalim igralcem resnega mišljenja, kot Joevu Skuku, lu bo imenitno predstavljal strogega župnl kovega predstavnika monmgnor-ja. V takih vlogah je Skuk dp-ma.
Avgusta Komarja mamo vi deli na odru zadnja leta radi njegovega rahlega zdravja, zato »>o njegov nastop vsem v zado ščenje Njegova visoka postava krepak m odločen glas ter lju bezmv nastop mu bodo po m a gali, da bo odličen kardinal.
Za tema dvema cerkvenima doatojanst vem koma pride na vr sto grof Prior Sab laški v oaebi Rudvja Wdmarja. Kdo drugi b< a upal krotiti Parižanko kot je Olga Marnova? Take vloge ao Rudyjeva špedahteta.
Pavlina Debevčeva bo predstavljala nežno in nepokvarjeno Oenovefo. Scene, v katerih se zateče po pomoč k župniku, da bi pridobila moža, katerega ima popolnoma v oblasti Olga, so nadvse zabavne. Z župnikovo bistroumnostjo to tudi izvoju-jeta.
Ugajala vam bo veljavna žup-nikova kuharica Frances lic, kateri povzroča župnik največ preglavic z razdejanjem svojih iiv-ljenskih potrebščin. Župnik ima navado odnesti svojim revežem, če le vidi, da ima kuharica ka ko zalogo, kar povzroče, da je v župnišču večkrat ogenj v strehi, ker ni kaj v lonec djati.
V manjših vlogah nastopajo še: Anton Eppich kot sluga, Nežka Kalan kot opravljlvka, Ivanka Shiffrer in Alice Teka vec kot redovnici, Joe Šircelj kot častnikar, Frank Kokalj kot trgovec, Joe Seme kot senator, Tbny Podobnik kot tajnik in končno še znani župnikov pes "kosmač", katerega lastuje trgovec John Mihelič s 74. ceste.
Vsi omenjeni so zanesljivi Cankarjevi igralci, ki so že veliko žrtvovali za povzdigo in obstoj slovenske drumatike. Ako upoštevamo tudi namen, za katerega bo podana predstava, tedaj bi moral biti avditorij SND nabit občinstva. Vsaj upamo in pričakujemo, da bo tako. Pom nite, da bo pričetek igre ob 6:30 zvečer.
Prijazno vas vabi k igri v imenu Cankarja ln podružnice št. 39 SANSa— Tončka Simčič.
PRIREDBA PODRUŽNICE 30 8AN8a
Sharon. Pa*—Naznanjam, da bo priredila podružnica št. 30 SANSa zabavo v nedeljo, 17. novembra, v Slovenskem delavskem domu. Ves čisti dobiček bo oddsn za otroško bolnišnico v Sloveniji.
Prosim tajnike vseh naših krajevnih društev, da obvestijo svoje Članstvo o tej veselici, za-eno apeliram na društva in organizacije, da ne bi prirejali veselic na isti dan. Nekateri tajniki so mi že obljubili sodelovanje. Kdor se ne bi mogel udeležiti zabave, naj pa daruje po svoji moči za ta plemenit namen—za bolnico.
Za podružnico 30 SANSa: Frank Kramar.
VESELICA DRUŠTVA 219
Denver. Colo. — Članstvo društva Columbine št. 218 SNPJ je na zadnji seji sklenilo, da priredimo veselico v korist društvene blagajne. V tekočem letu smo imeli več izvanrednih izdatkov dobre namene. Darovali smo za otroško bolnišnico v Sloveniji n vsakemu članu-veteranu smo darovali v gotovini po povratku z bojnih poljan. Veselica se bo vršila v soboto, novembra v Domu slovenskih društev na 4468 Washington st Pričetek ob 8:30 zvečer. Naše vrle članice so se rsdevolje odzvale, da bodo za to priredbo spekle nekaj, kar znajo speči le Slovenke. Tudi brez okusnih mesenih klobas ne bo, prav tako bo preskrbljeno tudi za auha grla. Za plesaželjne bo igrala izvrstna godba štirih mož.
Vabljeno je torej vse člsnstvo našega kakor tudi vseh ostalih društev na to veselico 2. nov zvečer. John Malovrh, tajnik.
11 priliko slišati Milavec-Levsti-kovo, Budanovo, Svigljevo, Bradača, Venclja, Pluta, Nosana in še nekaj drugjh. V tej opereti bo Joaephine Milavec-Levstik predstavljala lepo mlado prin-cezo, ne tako kot jo tolikrat doleti, da mora igrati kako nuno. Tudi druge aolospevne vloge so v veščih rokah. Mnogo je pri' čakovati od Budanove in Bradača.
Pevci in pevke Glasbene Matice podajajo operne predstsve že dvajset let. Vsako leto imajo eno operno prireditev- Pokazali so nam že lepe stvari, opernega in operetnega značaja. Predstava 3. novembra bo opereta. Brez vsega dvoma bo to taka predstava, ki bo ugajala očem in ušesom.
Pevci ln pevke Matice pričakujejo velike udeležbe od strani občinstva na tej predstavi. Po vsej božji razlagi pravičnosti jo tudi zaslužijo. Torej najpolnimo jim dvorano, da jim vsaj delno poplačamo njih trud—vežbajoč se več mesefcev za to operetno predstavo.	Louia Bella.
BANKET V POČ AST VETERANOM
Ambridgo, Pa*—Dolgo smo čakali prilike, da bi počastili naše vrle fante, ki so se vrnili z bojnih poljan med svoje drage. V to svrho smo izbr&li soboto, 26. oktobra, za banket v počast našim veteranom.
Banket se bo vršil v Sloven-, skem narodnem domu. Vsak vojak lahko pripelje s seboj ženo ali izvoljenko, mater ali očeta. Banketa se bo udeležil tudi naš župan, sodniki iz Beaverja itd. >o banketu bo ples, za katerega bo igrala izvrstna godba z Sygana. Kdor se želi udeležiti banketa, naj sporoči miss Margareth Tekstar, 154 Maple-wood.	M. Roseaberger.
VABILO NA KONCERT PEVSKEGA ZBORA SLOVAN 9t. Louia. Mo.—Vroči poletni dnevi so za nami in prišla je jesen in hladno jesensko vreme.

_PROSVETA
Po koncertu bo sledile prosta zabava za mlade in stare, za ples pa bo igral poznani Piškuličev orkester.
Kakor vsaka druga kulturna organizacija, tako tudi naš pevski zbor nima stalnih dohodkov, zato je potrebno prirejati priredbe in koncerte. Pridite na koncert, na katerem se bo vam nudil krasen duševni užitek. Za dobro postrežbo vam jamči odbor. Vstopnice v predproda-jo stanejo 50t\ pri vratih 60c.

GLEDE STAREGA KRAJA
Interesentom sporočam, da le vedno posredujemo v staro-krajskih zadevah in sicer:
Pošiljanje deaarjat Vse pošiljatve morajo iti skozi Narodno banko v Belgradu in so zato podvržene njenemu postopanju.—Naše cene so: Pri pošiljkah od $5 do $50 je treba dodati za stroške a) $3.50, ako se pošljejo brzojavno, b) $1.55, ako se pošljejo po zračni pošti, in c) $1.25, ako se pošljejo po navadni požtL— Pri pošiljkah nad $50 so stroški za 25c večji.
Božična darilni Ker vzame precej časa, zlasti potom pošte, da so pošiljke izplačane, je dobro, da* svoja božična denarna darila čim prej od-pošljete, da jih bodo tam pravočasno sprejeli.
Potovanja v stari kraji Kolikor se parnikov tiče, je potovanje odprto. Dobava JugosL potnih listov se ja zadnji čas nekoliko olajšala. Nasprotno pa ameriška vlada izdaja svoje potne liste le v zelo nujnih slučajih. Toda upa se, da se to obrne na bolje—Ker se za prihodnjo pomlad pričakuje velik naval potnikov za Evropo, ae Interesentom priporoča, da si čim prej zaslgurajo mesto.
Priseljevanja v Ameriko: Ako rabite pojasnila glede dobave oaeb is Evrope, nam lahko pliete po Informacije.
Poseatva. sapušštne Udi Ako vam
Je treba v starem kraju urediti zadevo posestva, zapuščine, pooblastila itd.. nam tudi lahko piicte po pojasnila.

Naši domovi in mladina
Tone Zornik iz Herminieja, Pa., je zadnjo sredo potožil v Pro-sveti, da so se naši narodni in društveni domovi oddaljili od svojega cilja, za katerega so bili zgrajeni. In zgrajeni so bili v prvi vrsti zato, da služijo kulturnim namenom in kulturnemu razvoju naših naselbin, kakor tudi njih družabnim potrebam. Namesto tega pa služijo danes večinoma kot—pivnice in igralnice. Pesimističen je tudi o mladini, ki se večinoma ne zanima za drugega kot za "good time" ...
O narodnih domovih pravi, da "v njih ni slišati več niti naše slovenske pesmi, kajti prekričijo jih gramofonske plošče, tako da se ne moreš niti mirno pogovoriti z nikomur. Prav tako tudi ne moreš uspešno voditi naših društvenih sej, v kolikor se še kdo zanima zanje ... Po nekaterih domovih imajo celo tako zvane "slot" mašine. Samo da je denar! Denar, denar in zopet denar . . Vse take stvari imajo, samo še "punc" jim manjka . . .
Boli ga tudi, ker "dandanes nuša mladina sploh ne mara knjig v naših narodnih domovih in čitalnicah. Prav tako ne marajo spominskih slik naših pionirjev, ki so orali ledino v zadružnem gibanju, na socialnem in unijskem polju. Sploh nimajo spoštovanja do starih dokumentov in prič, ki spominjajo na ljudi, kateri so se res nesebično žrtvovali, da ima danes mladina boljše življenje ..." Potem opienja ameriške šole in pravi: "Ni čudno, da je naša mladina tako zaslepljena proti kolektivizmu, kajti v šolah jo uče, da je edino kapitalistični sistem pravi in zveličaven. Torej nič se ni čuditi, da so tudi naši slovenski fantje, vključivši otroci naprednih stašev kričali, da je treba vreči atomsko bombo na Jugoslavijo ... ko so jugoslovanski letalci sestrelili ameriško letalo , .
*
Ta slika, ki jo podaja br. Zornik, ni lepa, ni razveseljiva, vendar pa je na splošno, žal, resnična. Morda ne bo odveč, ako se tudi na tem mestu nekoliko pomudimo pri tej sliki; in sicer ne zato, da bi komu hoteH delati pridigo, marveč je dobro, da se vprašamo, kam jadramo.
Predvsem je treba pribiti dejstvo, da se ta slika ne tiče samo nas, marveč je v njej zajeta slika vse sodobne ameriške kapitalistične civilizacije. Ta slika je le zrcalo velike socialne in kultur-r.e dekadence 'ameriškega življenja, ki valovi v čudnih niansah praznote in Jfcče utehe v komercializmu vseh sort. Sploh ta praznota izvira Utvelikegu komercializma, ki se izživlja v krušenju vrednot, v frustracijah (osebnih idejnih preprečitvah), v šablo-nizmu in ustvarjanju na vsej črti zmotnih in slabih socialnih vrednot.
Na tej socialni bolezni je bolna, zelo bolna vsa dežela. Zdi sc nam, da se je ta bolezen po zadnji vojni še bolj razpasla kot je bila pred vojno, ali dokler je bil v deželi "new deal", ki je dajal širokim množicam vsaj nekaj smotra, vsaj nekaj upanja in idejnega stremljenja. Ker tudi vojna ni prinesla uresničenja nobenih idealov—tega sploh nI mogla—marveč le diplomatično klestenje med "zmagovalci" na eni strani, na drugi strani pa še povečano raketlrstvo, brezmejno profitarstvo, veliko negotovost in celo govorice o novi vojni, je v duši skoraj vsakdo razočaran. Zato si ljudje iščejo uteho pri pijači, v praznoverju (verskem in drugem), pri "slot" mošinah, konjskih dirkah in drugih hazardnih igrah, s čitanjem praznih "funnies", v gledališčih pri Aablonski hollywood-ski "kulturi" in podobnem.
KLIC NA VINSKO TRGATEV
Chicago,—Ker v Chicagu nimamo vinogradov, se nam le redkokdaj ponudi priložnost do obiranja grozdja, toda v soboto, 26. oktobra bomo pa lahko direktno prispevali pri tem delu v dvorani SNPJ. Podružnice SANS-a bodo v ta namen preskrbele vinsko trgatev s plesom in da bo več veselja, bo tudi šaljiva pošta operirala cel večer.
Slovenci in Slovani v splošnem smo bolj počasni, kadar pride do kakega organiziranja na političnem polju, toda smo pa bolj z lahkoto pridobljeni za sodelovanje pri kaki dobrodelni stvari. Pravijo, da sila strne ljudstvo v skupno akcijo. Tako smo se tudi mi zdramili in za čeli skupno delovati, ko so Hitlerjeve in Mussolinijeve drhali podjarmile naše ljudstvo v starem kraju. Organizirali smo Jugoslovanski pomožni odbor in pod tem imenom nabirali denar in blago za stari kraj. Precej se je nabralo, toda šlo je prepočasi in organizirali smo SANS. Ta organizacija je bila sicer politično orientirana, toda je poleg delovanja na političnem polju tudi ves čas sodelovala pri pomožni akciji. Šele lansko leto si je nadela nalogo, da nabere $150,000 za zgraditev bolnice za tuberkulozne otroke v Sloveniji, in ta plemenita ideja se vedno bolj bliža uresničenju. To bo krasen sjaomenik vsem onim, ki so prispevali.
V večini slučajev se del nabranega denarja porabi za stroške, a pri nabiranju za bolnico gredo vsi prispevki v namenjeno svrho, SANS krije vse druge stroške. Ta organizacija vzdržuje svojo pisarno, razpošilja čtiva, obvestila itd., poleg tega pa še prispeva $1,000 mesečno združenemu jugoslovanskemu odboru. Da bo organizacija zm9Žna nadaljevati s svojo ve-lepotezno akcijo, je potrebno, da ji pridobivamo nove člane.
Podružnice SANS-a v Chicagu še tega zavedajo in v ta namen prirejajo veselico in vinsko trgatev, kajti ves prebitek bo oddan organizaciji za nadaljevanje započetega dela. Pričetek veselice bo ob 8. uri zvečer in vstopnina bo samo 50c.
Navzlic potežkočam bo tudi ta priredba preskrbljena z vsem jotrebnim, poleg drugih stvari bodo tudi krvavice za prigrizek, kot je obljubila sestra Cushar. Za godbo bo skrbel Ed Udovich in njegov orkester, pri Šaljivi pošti bomo pa lahke vsi prispevali. Vinska trgatev bo gotovo tudi vsakega zanima-čeprav mogoče vsak ne b< mogel priti v tolikšno bližino da bi unesel kak grozd. Pri tr gatvi bodo pomagali tudi član krožka št. 26 SNPJ. Ti so žc nekoliko izkušeni, kajti lanske eto so sami priredili vinsko tr gatev in s tem prispevali lepe vsoto v pomoč ljudem v starem kraju. Zabave bo torej dovolj za stare in mlade, odbor bo poskrbel, da boste dobro postreže ni in upati je, da se tudi odzovete v polnem številu. Tu je priložnoat, da potom zabave prispevate nekaj za dobro stvar.
Na svidenje v soboto 26. ok tobra v dvorani SNPJ.
Anton Trolar.
pijače ter zabave na koše, razvedrila pa tudi za vse posetnike.
Naše društvo bo priredilo to zabavo v korist svoje blagajne, ki je že dokaj šibka. Zato opozarjam vse članice, Ki se ne bodo udeležile, da se pričakuje od vsake, da bo plačala vsoto vstopnine $1.25, če se udeleži te zabave ali ne, kajti ta zabava se bo vršila zato, da nam ne bo treba razpisati izrednega društvenega asesmenta.
Vljudno vabimo vse članice in člane našega in drugih društev v tej okolici, da se udeležite v velikem številu. Pridite od blizu in daleč. Prideta naj tudi Frank in Mary Leskošek iz Port Washingtona ia mnogo drugih.
Naše čestitke članicam, ki so povečale svoje družine z naraščajem, namreč Annn Brezgel, ki je dobila zalo hčerko, ter Agnes Urbančič Baitol in France3 Mcintosh krepke sinčke. Frances ima že dve brhki deklici, ki sta sedaj dobili bratci. Vsi so člani našega društva. Mary Po-gorelčnik, ki je na bolniški listi, želimo hitrega okrevanja, tako da se bo tudi ona z nami veselila na . naši domači ?abavi dne 2. novembra.

John Turk.
Dalje apeliram na članstvo glede asesmenta. Treba je namreč, da je isti plačan do prvega v mesecu, tako da morem z al* kij uči ti račun in poslati denar v glavni urad SNPJ.
Prosim vas, da upoštevate to opozorilo, ker to je v vašo korist. Zadeva združitve bo hitreje urejena in marsikatera nepri-lika odvrnjena za vas, zame in za glavni urad SNPJ.
Jakob Rosic, tajnik, 1101 So. 1st st.
Vsa tn praznota in dekadenca naravno vpliva tudi na nas prav tako kot na vse druge skupine. Odsev tega življenja prihaja tudi v naše narodne domove, ki dune* res zelo redko kje služijo svojemu prvotnemu, kulturnemu namenu. Izjema je le nekaj narodnih domov v Clevelandu, kjer kulturno življenje še ni umrlo Vcčinu naših narodnih domov )>u danes res ne služi drugemu namenu—kot pivskemu In marsikje že tudi "slot" mašinam. Tako se tudi naše družabno življenje pogreza na najnižjo stopnjo, tudi na stopnjo raketirstva, kajti "slot" mašine niso nič drugega kot to, pn nai bodo v Caponejevih beznicah uli v naših nurodnth domovih. Ce bomo šli j mi tej poti, bo lahko kak Gorki napisal novo dramo—"Na dnu" . .
Je res tako kot pravi naš Zornik: Denar, denar in zopet denar! Ne mislimo igniti nobenega moralista, toda kakor mora človek »meti neko mejo, uko se neče pogrezniti na dno, tako bi morale poznati mejo tudi naše narodne ustanove, v tem primeru naši natodni domovi, uko nečejo postati navadne raketirske beznlce Vm vemo, da bi m« brez pivnic naši narodni domovi ne mogli vzdrževati, kakor tudi ni mogoče prirejati ne družabnih niti kulturnih priredb brez pijače. Pri tem Je sploh naš glavni vir dohodkov za vzdrževanje društev, |>odpornih in kulturnih, kakor tudi narodnih domov. Vsukdo tudi jiotrcbuje razvedrila in družbe med prijatelji Pravilno je. da naši narodni domovi služIjo tudi tem našim potrebam, toda ako iz njih napravimo beznlce, lahko tudi čedne i aketlrnke beznlce s "slot" mašinaml, s tem le ponižamo sami be, naše domove in naša društvo.
Vaš urednik Je /e slišal ta-lo ugovor: "Ja, če mladini tega ne damo ( slot" maiin). bo šla pa drugam." Toda če drži ta "argument", potem lahko drži tudi argument, ki ga omenja br. Zornik, to je. "<lu je treba še punc" .. . Tudi z njimi bi fante "pridržali" .
Ako bomo mladini dajali tako "vzgojo" in Jo vzgajali v slot rnaiirtfcki "kulturi", ali je potem kaj čudnega, ako ne mara knjig v narodnih domovih in čitalnicah? Sigurno Je, da bo prt 'slot" malinah pozabila tudi na društva in sploh na vse, kar Ima v sebi kaj vrednot. Ne samo mladina, marveč tudi starejši
Zavedamo se, da Je z gojenjem kulture (pevskih sborm dram-skih društev in podobno) po naselbinah danes veliko težje kot Je
bilo pred več leti. Težko Je po velikih naaelbtnah. po manjših pa	^	-----r
Mikih nemogoče Lep del našega igralskega In pevskega kadra tem bomo tudi mladini pokazali nekaj boljšega kot pa ao-"slot u starejše generacije le počiva v grobovih, drugi so se postarali mašine.

APEL NA ČLANSTVO LILIJE
Milwaukee.—Vljudno prosim one člane društva Lilije št. 764 SNPJ, ki se še niso oglasili v mojem uradu, da to store ob prvi priliki in podpišejo prošnjo za bolniško zavarovanje pri SNPJ. Obenem prinesite tudi certifikate, katere moram poslati na gl. urad SNPJ, da dobijo nove številke in vsakemu certifikatu bo priložena združitvena pogodba. Certifikate boste dobili vrnjene, vsled tega ni treba nikomur skrbeti.
Dalje prosim vse one, ki so bili pred združitvijo že člani SNPJ in društva Lilije, da mi sporoce, pri katerem društvu že lijo biti od sedaj naprej. Pri obeh društvih namreč ne more nihče biti in si mora zbrati ali društvo SNPJ, pri katerem Je.
POROČILO O PRIREDBI
Uniontown, Pa.—Slavnost, ki jo je priredila 28. in 29. septembra federacija SNPJ za okraja Fayette in Greene v počast našim članom-veteranom, je še precej dobro izpadla, vendar pa bi lahko še veliko boljše. Če ravno so bili vremenski bogovi z nami, ni bila udeležba tolikšna kot smo pričakovali. Vsem udeležencem bodo ostali v spominu za vse čase filmi iz naše stare domovine, v katerih smo videli boritelje za svobodo re publike Jugoslavije.
Vsem tistim članom in članicam, prijateljem in znancem, ki se niso udeležili priredbe, je lah ko žal, ker niso videli slovenske ga narpda v boju za svobodo. Čudno se mi vidi, da so Slovenci v tukajšnji okolici tako čudr nega mišljenja in da se ne zanimajo za svoje brate in sestre onkraj morja, kateri so šli skozi toliko trpljenja in. strahot, pred-no so si priborili svobodo. Ali imate v sebi kamenje mesto src? Čas je že, da bi se malo omehčali in stopili v vrste tistih, ki delajo za staro domovino. Res je, da smo že dolgo v Ameriki, s tem pa ni rečeno, da se ne smemo zanimati za naše brate in sestre onkraj morja. Z neka terimi sem osebno govoril in jim dejal, da je naša dolžnost, da jim pomagamo po svojih močeh a dobil sem odgovor, češ, najprej moramo gledati zase, če ne bomo, nam tudi drugi ne bodo pomagali. Je res žalostno, ko človek dobi tak odgovor.
Ali niso oni preko morja naši bratje in sestre? Ali niso poka zali vsemu svetu, kaj so zmožni? Ponosni moramo biti nanje!
Te vrstice so namenjene vsem onim, ki so pozabili, kje so za gledali luč sveta. Njim kot meni je tekla zibeljka v naši lepi Sloveniji. Jaz sem doma z Do lenjskega med Savo in Krko in sem ponosen na svoj rojstni kraj.
Najlepše se zahvaljujem vsem, ki ste se udeležili te priredbe in pripomogli do tako lepega uspeha. Prepričan sem, da vam bo ostalo v najlepšem spominu vse, kar ste videli in slišali. Br. Cain-kar, gl. predsednik, nam je povedal veliko zanimivega.
Prebitek te priredbe znaša $135.94 in ker smo prvotno sklenili, da gre polovico za otroško bolnišnico v Sloveniji, smo vsoto $67.97 nakazali in poslali na pristojno mesto.
j Prostovoljni prispevki pa znašajo $69.08. Ta vsota pa je na-menjena za obrambno akcijo, | torej za SANS. Poleg tega je društvo Jasna poljana 326 SNPJ odobrilo na zadnji seji z dVie 6. oktobra vsoto $175 za bolnišnico. Louie Dornik. blagajnik federacije.

DOMAČA ZABAVA DRUŠTVA 39
Chicago — Ker le bila zadnja seja društva Narodni vitezi Št. 39 SNPJ boli slabo obiskana, si štejem v dolžnost, ds članstvo zopet opozorim, da smo že na septembrski seji sklenili, da i priredimo domači zabavo. Ta ! zabava se bo vršila v soboto zvečer, 2. novembra v dvorani SNPJ.

40-LETNICA NA FRATER-NALISTIČNEM POLJU
Cleveland, O.—Štirideset let je poteklo od ustanovitve društva V boj 53 SNPJ. Ko smo obhajali 35-letnico, sem imel več časa na razpolago in pregledal zapisnike tega zgodovinskega društva v našem naselju, nato pa objavil nekaj izčrpkov v Pro-sveti. Tega pa najbrže sedaj ne bom mogel storiti, ker sem preveč zaposlen.
Znano je, da je bilo društvo V boj vedno v ospredju v naši collinwoodski naselbini, bodisi na fraternllističnem, kulturnem ali gospodarskem polju, ter vseskozi delovalo za podvig' naselbine. Seveda, društvo je šlo skozi razne boje, naj si bo notranje ali zunanje. Imelo je tudi sovražnike, na drugi strani pa ugled, ker je vedno nastopalo neustrašeno kot organizirana delavska skupina.
Društvo si je steklo največ zaslug pri izgradnji tukajšnjega Slovenskega delavskega doma na Waterloo rd. Naše članstvo je bilo leta in leta obdavčeno po 25c mesečno in z denarjem podprlo postavitev narodnega shajališča, kjer je danes središče našega kulturnega in društvenega udejstvovanja. Za delnice je plačalo nad $13,000.
Društvo 53 SNPJ ima tudi zasluge za ustanovitev angleško posluj očega društva Strugglers 614 SNPJ. Temu tedaj mlademu društvu je priskočilo finančno na pomoč in tudi darovalo nekaj delnic Slovenskega delavskega doma, da je bilo kot mlado društvo včlanjeno pri tej važ. ni gospodarski in kulturni ustanovi.
Podpisani je leta pozneje tudi želel, da bi V naši naselbini usta novili tudi žensko društvo SNPJ, in res sem sprožil to sugestijo na seji društva V boj, katero je dalo vzpodbudo in nekaj članov je šlo na delo ter ustanovilo Svobodo, ki je dobilo poslovno številko 748. To društvo je v tem letu praznovalo svojo desetletnico. Ni velsko po številu članic, toda po kvaliteti pa lahko rečem, da ie prvo med ženskimi društvi. Članice tega društvs so aktivne na našem kulturnem m tudi gospodarskem polju.
Članstvo društva V boj je bilo vedno razredno zavedno in aktivno ter tako veliko doprineslo za blaginjo in dobrobit naše na selbine. Zato lahko rečem, da je zgodovina tega društva velika in pestra na vseh poljih na šepa prizadevanja.
V zadnjih šestih letih Je šla naša stars domovina skozi najhujšo borbo v vsej svoji zgodo-
vini in naše drusUujeb k* J1 e priskočilo na namreč pri našem drušwu bila neposredno ustanovi*, podružnica št. 35 JPo ss i kor tudi podružnica št' SANS-a. Knjige nam U da je društvo 53 SNPJ Pr,. valo vsega skupaj $1,500 v blagi namen.
Vse to sem povedal ne ri kakšnega bahanja, temveč 1 vem, da je zgodovina naše društva bogata in plodonusna naj služi za vzgled drugim. Zi dovmar ne bo mogel iti pre dela in zaslug, ki jim ima ni društvo v collinwoodski našel ni. Zal, da veliko pionirjev, so delali in se žrtvovali, kr črna zemlja. Pred očmi mi s je mnogi aktivni člani, kat< sem poznal, ko sem bil še m denič, toda danes jih ni več m nami. da bi skupno praznov to našo pomembno obletnico
Štiridesetletnica se bo vri 10. novembra v avditoriju S venskega delavskega doma. ( tej priliki bomo imeli tudi [ ster program: nastop pevsl zborov, solospevi, dueti, ume plesi, predvajanje filmov iz s re domovine, slike s 13. red konvencije itd. Program se pričel ob štirih popoldne, i\ Čer f)a bo prosta zabava in p v obeh dvoranah. Kot glav govornika pa bosta nastop Vincent Cainkar, gl. predsedn in Rudy Lisch, član finančne odseka SNPJ. Prvi bo govo v slovenščini, drugi pa v ang ščini. Naš mojster živih s Vinko Coff, ki je tudi član r šega društva, bo pa naštudii živi sliko.
Na članstvo apeliram, naj ne izgovarja glede vstopnic. S so dovolj poceni—samo 65c popoldanski program in pli kar v današnjih razmerah, ko vse drago, ni veliko. Dolžnt slehernega člana in članice , da je navzoča na tako važni di štveni obletnici. Torej izgovc pustite za enkrat doma in se j tovo udeležite 40 letnice! Ti na ostalo občinstvo apeliram, 1 se udeleži naše priredbe v ve kem številu. Torej na svider 10. novembra v Slovenskem < lavskem domu!

Report of Supreme President
ni, is the first time in the society's history that A* board is meeting outside of its headquarters. Z you know, it so happened that our semi-annual I Meting date falls immediately before the conven-iftB- for this reason it was decided at the annual faceting to assemble in the convention city, f Along with this report I deem it necessary to mention that the executive committee cooperated with the Eveleth committee on convention preparations and thus we were able to surmount all difficulties that are prevalent in this postwar period Everything is taken care of concerning lodging and food for the delegates, as well as Bating places for the convention and various committees, and I think that everything in this connection is in order.
In accordance with the decision # made at the Sst annual board meeting, the executive committee followed the prescribed instructions to speed the convention by shortening its session and thus live expenses, and named the credentials and resolutions committees from among the elected delegates Of course, these committees must be approved by the convention, which shall also elect other committees that are deemed necessary. In naming these committees, the executive committee had to take into consideration those delegates who are known to us and has tried to select the most capable for each respective committee impartially., Therefore, the convention will be able to swing into action without wasting so much time with elections of convention committees and consequently delayed reports, as was the practice at former conventions. This will undoubtedly help to conclude the convention in a shorter time, t Other more important activties during the first ; half of this year were centered on the member-ihip campaign that was launched last year in celebration of the 20th anniversary of the founding of K our English speaking lodged and was closed March 1 this year. As you know from results published a Prosveta at regular intervals and from the final . »cord, the campaign was as usual rather slow at the beginning, gradually gaining momentum dur »I the second-half period until it reached its climax in the home stretch months very successfully.
The other important campaign that was kunched last spring in accordance with the board decision and which is still in progress now, is the campaign for new subscribers conducted in celebration of the 30th anniversary of the Daily Pro-iveta. The main office, especially the editorial and circulation departments, is trying to interest our pwple in our daily paper; in this work our well-known regional agents are doing their parts. The results are favorable, and if this drive will pro cwd on the same pattern as the membership Jive, it is a foregone conclusion that it, too, will
*	brought to a successful close and the occasion •ill be fittingly observed
The executive committee has also tried to '»iken interest among our lodges and federations «>r the renewal of large-scale anniversary eele-*»tions and SNPJ Dsy events as well as other ; Jrotrtakings of similar character, such as were in prewar years but which wartime condign* forced us to suspend. We have tried to or a national SNPJ Day celebration to bc> 1 in a large center, in eastern Ohio or western "nniyhania, and alio in the Midwest. The re-fr°m lod*t 8 and federations was favorable " Uwy are willing to cooperate. Unfortunately Problem of how to obtain sufficient supplies ; J^ary for the success of such affairs, loomed and laiKer and the prospect of holding u T iffa'r of this type was very diacouraging.
» reault, no federation or a group of lodges ^ willing to assume the responsibility to spon-"' affair in question, nor even any smaller « ral affair, with the exception of the sectional n ,hat was sponsored by the two federa-,ri šestem Pennsylvania. tuuM , the nali°n«l SNPJ celebration dia-J at the last annual meeting had to be post-iater t*"**'■■wHi M the home "'"»ration planned for our war veterans. *'*<> instructed the executive com-m> ' the problem of a new building and auua	*H,ard in the event it finda a

As far as the organization itself is concerned, I am happy to report that during the past half year we registered considerable progiess in membership and assets, as you will see from reports which will be submitted by the other officers at this meeting. The relations between lodges and the society are very favorable, as well as conditions at the main office. There have been no serious complaints and the status of the organization is good.'
VINCENT CAINKAR.
Report accepted.
Report of 1st Supreme Vice President
At our last meeting, I was delegated to attend a meeting in Pittsburgh at the call of the president of the Greek Catholic Union of the United States. A complete report on that meeting was made to the Executive Committee so I shall refrain from repeating the proceedings in this report. I only wish to add that it is good for us to know of the sinister influences among Slav groups, and how fortunate it is that we have SANC and oth r worthy Slav organizations available to combat their evil programs.
Activities in the Western Pennsylvania area have shown a decided increase during the past six months, and I believe the return of our members to normal civilian life has offered real in spiration to our lodges and federations. I partici puted on the program of three homecoming cele brations held by SNPJ lodges and also the 35th anniversary celcbrution of Lodge 166. These proved stimulating and offered hope of our young members undertaking their obligations as mem bersHif their lodges and society.
The annual Pennsylvania SNPJ Day this year demonstrated that our postwar activities will show encouraging signs of progress. This affair was beyond all doubt the best we have held there in many years, and it is encouraging to report that the cooperation the committee received is highly commendable. Already the two sponsoring fed erations are discussing plans for next year's af fair. We are convinced that activities of this na ture are heulthful for' our society.
Our E. S. Federation shows signs of reawaken ing from a rather passive role to one of active in terest. More lodges are attending the meetings and more interest is being shown. Interest is ob • viously high for increased athletic activities, and our federation will provide a variety of sports activities. Plans are under way for a federation golf tournament in September, and for the annual duckpin tournament sometime during the winter There also appears to be increasing interest for participation in tenpins, arid this should serve as a real boom to our highly successful annual ten pin tournaments. • It is indeed encouraging for us to witness this steady interest in organized society sports pro grams. That spirit may very well be employed for acquiring new members, organizing juvenile circles, and generally stimulate our lodges and federations. But I believe we need to be more emphatic and aggressive in revealing the true progressive character of our society, and to make our younger members more deeply conscious of their role in our economic life. I am not prepared to submit a program, but I am ready to sit in conference to discuss such a progrsm. A good beginning, I believe, has been offered by the head editor in his report to the convention in suggesting an addition to our English section of Prosveta.

Report of 2nd Supreme Vice President
Bro. Zarnick has no special report. He has done all in his power for the society. He is happy to report that activities are on the upgrade; of special importance is the enthusiasm for the society among returned servicemen. In his vicinity there are so many veterans that it is impossible to arrange only one celebration in their honor; for this reason, several celebrations will be held in vsrious sections of his city. He ha« also helped in the campaign for new members according to his best ability.
Report accepted.
Report of Supreme Secretary
My report this time will be rather short because I have prepared a Irngthy report for the convention which opens Monday, and because thr preconvention preparations required considt-rable time in order that everything will be in readiness for this important assembly. Various difficulties which have been hampering our work in the past are still with us and moro time is required to make the scheduled arrangements.
Without going into details, I wish to state that our organization has madi- considerable progress in membership during the first half of this yesr, which it undoubtedly qf great interest to all mem bers and Especially to those who have helped »0 make this progress possible. The Increase during this period was 1,263 members in spite of the fart that in the same period a total of 279 mernberj died.
This progress can be ascribed to the fact that, besides being financially stable, our society's ideological policy is basically sound an attractive enough to the people who, although slowly, are nevertheless awakening. Therefore, we must re double our efforts along this line, because ours »s the right path the path that leads to a new life

The morale In the organisation Is good and a friendly spirit prevails lietween lodges and the main office, which is reflected in the fact that there are no special complaints.
To all active members who have helped In any way to maintain harmonious cooperation, 1 wish to express my sincere thanka. At the same time 1 appeal to them to continue their work because our goal has not yet been reached.
As you know, the executive committee has been negotiating with the independent society Lily of Milwaukee, Wisconsin, which offered to merge with our society last year and with whose officers we have come to a complete agreement; however, the reaoon that the merger has not yet been concluded la due to the lllinoia inaurance cotn-missioner's demand that certain changes be made in the agreement, hut it is expected that this will be straightened out soon. In ordar that no other obatacles will arise, It is adviaable for the supreme board U) approve the agreement and to instruct the executive committee to carry out the agreement reached with the officers of society Lily.
At this time the state auditors are examining the aociety's administration at the main office. They began their work June 24 and are expected to finiah soon It has again been demonstrated how badly the society needs larger quarters, as the rest of the executive officers can attest. Be-atdes the state examiners there weie also the regular accountants lined liy the auperviaory committee, so that we were many times In each other's way because of lack of space, and this Just before the convention when there Is always more work. It is my opinion that we should do something alarut this situation as stain as conditions will peimit.
There were no other special matters since the laat meeting If I have omitted anything you would like to know, I will lie at your dispoaal and will try to explain any questions pertaining to my office.
The accountants have audited our books as usual, aa did our supervisory committee which will submit Its report at this meeting,
F. A. VIDER
. Report accepted
Report of Assistant Secretary
In order that there will not lie aoy unnecessary repetition, I have prepared for this meeting a brief report, since my long report has already been puhliahed for the convention and very likely you have read it.
During the two and a half years of my office as aasistant seer duty I have come to the conclusion that the last convention did a guod thing when it created thia office It was necessary to work hard during this period end eapeclally during uncertain times when help was unstable, but I have carried <»ut my work with pleasure. Considering the conditions, I can state th#t this position Is necessary but it needs improvements.
According to the pr«aent system there are some Jobs at the office that are more or leea monopol-lied by some individuals, which la not beneficial although, at least temporarily, not harmful to the organisation. In the future thia will very likely have to be reorganised so that work will not be retarded In the event that on* person leaves. It is my opinion thet this could be overcome by gradually letting othei person perform the work In voriouo departments by the alternating system Thia would inaure uninterrupted work in the event thet someone leaves.

For Members of Slovene National Benefit Society and American Slovenes
Cooperatives and Labor
As pointed out last week, the SNPJ at its recent convention adopted several resolutions dealing with domestic and international problems. One of these deals with the problem of cooperatives.
Mindful of the important role that labor can play in the economic field, the delegates in the resolution urge all members tor become active in the expansion of the cooperative movement as well as in all other economic cooperative fields.
Recently, the Council for Cooperative Development issued a series of articlcS on Cooperatives and Labor by A1 Rees, member of the council, who writes on this subject as follows:
Last November a member who walked into the small food store of the Toledo Consumers Cooperative was amazed to find it so packed with customers that they could hardly move. Six husky new clerks were putting goods on the shelves. "Whatever is going on?" the surprised member asked the manager. The manager explained the Local 14 of the UAW-CIO was on strike at Chevrolet, and the co-op was filling all the strike relief orders. When the work got too heavy for the store's small staff, the Local assigned members with grocery store experience to work in the co-op in place of picket duty!
All over the country during the strikes last winter co-ops gave food and money to the strike kitchens. Central States Cooperatives, the regional wholesale which covers Illinois, Indiana, Michigan and Ohio, passed this resolution at its membership meeting:
"Whereas the Cooperative Movement and organized labor are two parts of efforta of people to establish democracy more firmly and to secure a more just distribution of goods and services; and
"Whereas, the cooperative movement and the labor movement are under attack by the same forces, therefore,
be it
"Resolved, that cooperatives'and labor form a Working alliance for the attainment of the ends for which both are organized; and that each local cooperative in a community where labor disputes exist be urged to aid to the fullest possible extent the families of workers involved in such
It is no iccfdent that co-ops should take thia position. The first co-op in the world was founded by the weavers of Rochdale, England, to help relieve the misery which followed a lost strike. The cooperatives today in England have 23 representatives in Parliament who vote with the Labor party. In South Bend, Indi^n^ the co-op ia located in the union hall of Local 55, f UAW-CIO. In Dillonvale, Ohio, one of the natioh'a largest co-ops was founded in 1008 by union coal miners. In New York City' a giant cooperative apartment house project was founded by the Amalgamated Clothing Workers, and most of its members are members of that union or of the International Ladies Garment Worker^
Co-ops and 'unions are run by the same people. In their unions they are organized aa workers to improve their wages and wortOnif' conditions. In their co-ops they are organized as consumers to control the price and quality of what they buy. Today, the unions of America are far stronger and larger than its co-ops. Too many workera are only half organized; organized where they earn their money, but at the mercy of the profit system where they spend it. Workers only half organized, union members who are not co-op members, are fighting the profit system with one hand tied behind their backs.
Brothers, we've got a awell right hook, but its time to get in a few punches with our left.

Coftefir banco More than a spark of life was added to the Cosiest Lodge when it was discovered 'a short time ago that the lodge treasury desperately needs to be replenished. The lodge was confronted vi|lth a situation that required ready cash for a Juvenile Xmas program, for promotion of sports activities, and in general for the successful performance of lodge work.
The result of the discovery is the dance scheduled for this Saturday, Oct. 26th, for which tickets were printed and distributed among the entire lodge membership. They must be sold, and they are being sold, to assure a big attendance. The lodge members are accepting the appeal for assistance in an unprecedented manner, and there will be a big crowd of members and friends pres ent. An active program of lodge ac tlvities Will thus be assured.
We are appealing to our SNPJ friends to join us this Saturday for a jolly good time, and to assist us in maintaining a godd sized treasury for SNPJ promotion work. The orchestra chosen by the committee is the best obtainable in this section for an SNPJ dance. Frank Porovne and his Musical Stylists provide excellent music in both the Slovene and modern numbers. In addition there will be ample refreshments to guarantee a stimulating and healthful time for everyone. Come and join us this Saturday from 9 P. M. to 1 A. M. There will be much fun,

MILWAUKEE. Wis.—A bouncing 9 pound baby boy arrived at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Anton Paulin. Mother and baby are coming along fine. Papa Paulin will also survive from the latest report. Our sincere congrats to you fine people.
Time and again, we have made appeals to our members for news concerning our members or news pertaining to other lodge members in this vicinity. That also goes for members bowling in leagues in which we don't come in contact with. A few members have responded, but on the whole we have been ignored completely. So many times we have got news that was too late to be of any value and it had to be discarded. So please notify our secretary of any and all news and it will be promptly printed. Your cooperation will be heart* ily appreciated and help to keep this column going.
Oct. 25—This will be your last reminder to attend the October meeting. We have the promise of Steve Hedji that he will be there to show the movies taken at the Vets Homecoming banquet. That in itself should be an incentive that should pack the hall. Other items of importance will also be on the docket Same time, same place.
Nov. 2—Ladies' Lodge Venera wlil hold domača zabava on this date at the Collins-Meyer Club house post, 725 W. National ave. These good ladies are deserving of ybur support, as they have always cooperated With us whole-heartedly. So for an enjoyable evening, remember this affair.
Dec, 7—This is the most important date of the year for the Badger lodge. Yes, on this date, we will celebrate our 20th anniversary. The committee is working hard getting all the preparations ready. Help can always be used so if you are called to do your little bit, do so willingly. With all pulling together there is no doubt of the success of this affair. Soliciting of ads for the program booklet is in full swing, so contact your business friends and help the committee along. Bowling Taps The boys were hot and cold in the Remic 875 loop. Ralph (Curly Head) Simons led the pack with his fine 619 total on games of 211-206-Ž02. Just a step behind was A1 (Chubby) Jeray with 618 on games of 186-236-196. Lou Lonkner had his Wide sweeping hook working swell as he cracked a 605 total. Other good totals were Tony (Step Back) SSpruck with 565 and husky A1 Mbren with 553. Our good friend Doc Kriskovic took a tumble from his lofty perch on top of the standings when he fiddled for a 490 total to drop his 207 average to 194. Just a momentary lapse, eh, Doc, we hope. The select 400 class was very prominent and numerous so we wiil just skip them.
The Badger Mixed went thru its paces with some fair scores. Stanley Sedmak and his 2-minute ball garnered a 545 set to lead the parade. Otto Jereb with 531 and Joe (Side Saddle) Ambrosh with 530 were next in line. Some of the newcomers are showing improvement right along. Johnny Poklar seems to have possibilities and with practise and learning the tricks of Playing the alleys he should improve as he goes along. Among the lassies we find a new name gracing the top. Ann Paepke was tops with her 469 set. Mickey Nowak and her 463 total was next in line. A 444 set by Molly Obluck put her 3 on the list.
Remember the meeting date and get those DUES paid on time.

A Memorable Visit In Springfield
CHICAGO.—Over the Columbus Day weekend,, daughter RobAnn and I took a trip to Springfield. 111. Primarily, we both wanted to see and visit all the historical landmarks down that way, and of course, Talso hoped to visit and meet some of the SNPJers I had been corresponding with, or have read about in the Prosveta.
Thus it was that Freda Klasinz and daughter Frances were on hand to welcome us as soon as we arrived. She whisked us to her home where we proceeded to get thoroughly acquainted. Freda is also a Circle manager, and naturally we had much to discuss. She also told us we were to attend a "weenie roast" in Jhe evening, but She did not prepare us for quite such an elegant one.
The "roast" took place In the spacious yard of Cele and Ray Weed, and it was a beautiful sight as we approached. Halloween decorations had been strung up all around the section, and for the "piece de resistance" there was a huge corn shock set up. trimmed with nice fat pumpkins.

Present were Frances Lazar, president, her husband Dom and family, Lucille Cunningham, treasurer, and husband Jack, Mary Aidich, recording secretary, husband Joe and family, as well as the families of Mr. and Mrs. Norman Davenport, Joe and Mary Brinocar, Mary Ann Felber, Lorny and Reva Perko, Leo and Mary Mihelcic, and Freda and Frank Klasinz. "Stag" were Johnny Lazar, Johnny and Frank Kline, Lucas and Sylvester Repovz, Angle Zape and Mimi Proctor.
We had a grand time under that beautiful full moon, talking and eating nice crisp hot-dogs, with many delicious "pot-luck" salads, beans, doughnuts, coffee, and for the men folks, something a little stronger to keep them wsrm. Being the guest of honor, I was given first choiče in choosing sides for the game-playing, and even though we lost we proved we could take it by giving out with a song, our penalty. As the weather turned cool, the party continued on in the basement of the Lazar home. Mary Brinocar led the adults and children in more game-playing, and then we danced to the accordion playing of Sylvester Repovz. It was one of the nicest and most novel parties I have ever attended, and I am only sorry I didn't get a chance to spend morr time with each and everyone present.
On Sunday, Dom and Frances Lazar drove us down to New Salem. Lincoln's picturesque village, for what proved to be a refresher course in history for me, and a source of amazement for RobAnn. Coming home we had time to visit Oak Ridge Cemetery, the site of the beautiful and impressive tomb of Lincoln. A drive around the city, and then out to the newly built artificial lake and surrounding'countryside ended a perfect day. But not quite, for when we reached the Klasinz home, a delicious supper awaited us, and then we spent the evening, talking and discussing the Prosveta, and the SNPJ in general.
Came Monday, and Mary Aidich was "johnny-on-the-spot" to take us on a tour of the city itself—Lin-coin's home, the Capitol, Centennial, Armory, and many other fine build* Ings. as well as a visit to the Slovene Dom, It sure was nice of Mary to be so gracious and helpful, and she has our sincere thanks.
Freda Klasinz. manager and Frances Lazar, assistant, are to be commended for the fine work thev nre doing with their Circle, and I for one. sincerely hope the gals keeo on with the good work. Good Circle leaders sre hard to find, and it's heart-warming to see such as Freda and Frances.
Both the Frank Klasinz and Dom Larar families were our most excellent hosts during this eventful visit, and to them, and all the other Llncolnitos. who helped to make our visit so very pleasant and memorable. thank you very,) very much, from both RobAnn, and myself. ANN SANNEMAAN. 559.

By Loui« Benlge*
crn«SlHG the Paris P«*«* ^Walter Lippmann lays
^Tfor its failure squarely on
^ blame for i
^retarV that Byrnes and his asao-
and Connolly
ast* Vjs	they have beer
^JtTr unpojsible. that
Efhave been trying by force of tbe> hs*	Russia to yield

^and TnaSrSy states' that ^ the differ-
^ce is tO settle all problems on a of "a general world settle-
S" and not on minor issues.
LIPPMANN also hits hard at the
theoTv that the Soviet expansion >n-Kiropc could have been prevent-S%^velt had not "appeased"
S He"points out the fact that at the time of the Teheran conference, the Russians had 430 divisions on the Srn front and the Germans 223. At that time the allied armies were Sailed in Italy and. in March of 1944 had only 23 divisions avail-iblo for the landing in France
The Germans had a total of 330 divisions scattered in Europe, that B 223 on the Russian front. 51 in France. 23 in Italy and a like number in the Balkans.
The primary purpose of President Roosevelt was to save thousands of American lives by keeping the Rus lian army going.
BY FAR THE most revealing
lUtement by Lippmann is the fol
lowing:
"Great Britain and the United States never had enough troops to defeat the German Army. President Roosevelt knew that, he knew the importance of the Red Army, ind what they (the anti-Roosevelt and anti-Soviet crowd) describe as his (Roosevelt's) appeasement of jtalin, was, in fact, an effort, dictated by our own military needs, to make sure that the Red Army would play its immense and indispensable part."
This, in a nutshell, tells the story tnd the whole truth about the question of who bore the brunt of the
war. The Allies invaded France after the Russians cleaned up most of Hitler's "invincible" army. Why, then, shouldn't the Soviet Union have the main say-ao-in the making of peace treaties of Europe?
Activities In SNPJ
k Preparations for the SNPJ National Bowling Tournament are under way and have been for some time past. Pioneer Lodge 559 of Chicago, who will be the host at the tournament, is all out to make this the biggest event tn the Society's history. '	"
The National Athletic Board, too,
has effected several necessary changes in the rules to make it more attractive to the average bowl, ers. The dates selected are the last week-end in April and the Cascade Center bowling alleys, 32 lanes in all, 'have been reserved for this outstanding occasion.
Although the annual pin classic is still six whole months away, we are predicting a record-shattering entry, perhaps by as much as a fifty percent increase over the 1946 mark. The fact that the tournament will be conducted in two separate .-lasses, in both the men's and women's divisions, is in itself expected to boost the entries considerably over the previous high.

Hare and there bowlers are beginning to lay aside their extra nickels and dimes for the trip to Chicago. Some are building up a special fund by charging so much a "blow" in their weekly league sessions and so much for each foul, etc. This, you will find, is an easy and almost painless way of saving, for it usually comes in such small pinches and for a good purpose, too, that one doesn't mind even if the pinch is a little hard some weeks . . . Lodges, too, can assist their bowlers by sponsoring a special affair or drawing to raise funds for the entry fees and. perhaps, a tew dollars extra for traveling expenses to relieve the bowlers of at least some of the financial burden involved. Every little help counts and they deserve it.
And whan wa speak and write in terms of national bowling tournaments, we must not forget to remind the members, especially in Western Pennsylvania, that the annual National SNPJ Duckpin Tourney will be staged as usual on New Year's Day, January 1, 1947. This is another stellar attraction which, along with the social affair held in conjunction with it, is certain to set
an all-time record.
• • • • •
The Juvenile Telegraphic Bowling Tournament is scheduled to be held a week before the regular national event at Chicago. The dates are April 19 and 20. The places are your own hometown alleys. Let's get an early start with our juveniles this season and see if we can't have at least twenty-five different lodges and Juvenile Circles repre sented when the tournament rolls
around. With cooperation from the big SNPJ localities like Cleveland, Detroit, Milwaukee, Chicago, Indianapolis, etc., it is almost certain we can top this mark with room to spare. This will be the third annual juvenile telegraphic bowling event, so let's put it over with a bang that will be heard and felt
throughout the SNPJ.
• • • • •
Again we remind lodges, who are sponsoring bowling teams this season, that applications for financial assistance from the Society's Athletic Fund for bowling outfits must be submitted to the Main Office on or prior to December 1. In order to get full advertising value, new shirts should be obtained as early In the season as possible and worn in every league engagement thereafter Attractive shirts for the men, and blouses or dresses for the ladies, adds much to the appearance of bowlers as a unit and, also, has a way of building up the team and lodge spirit, as well as the competi tion. When making your request for aid, use the special form pre pared for this purpose. These may be had on written request to the
Juvenile Director.

Did you notice that last week's Official Organ consisted of an equal npmber of pages of Slovene and English material, four of each—or were you one who failed to turn to page 5 to read the convention minutes It will no doubt interest you to know that, under present plans one half of the weekly issue of the Prosveta will soon be regularly de voted to Engliah contributions and articles. This, in my opinion, will be a step forward, considering that a majority of adult members in the Society were born in this country and a large percentage of those who came here from Jugoslavia can read and write In the English language Thia change will make room fos more educational articles on labor, social and economic problems of the day. and will provide the editor with greater opportunity to pursue a policy which will prove enlightening to all the members, but particu larly to the young people who n«ed it most By selecting the outstand ins articles which appear in laboi newspaper« and some of the mote progressive dailies, much can be accomplished to keep the truth before the * yes of the membership and influence thought and voice into chan-n< Is more effective and beneficial for comnron welfare
page 8 of the same issue. The convention approved both by large majorities, and in the doing paved the way for greater expansion of SNPJ in the near and distant future. Make it your business to read the resolution and the program. As a matter of fact, it is your duty to read the entire minutes of the convention if you wish to be more fully informed of its proceedings and decisions. The same also holds true of the minutes of the Supreme Board and Executive Committee meetings. By-laws, too. should be referred to more frequently. Unless you do this, you cannot keep up
with the progress of your Society. ♦ • • • •
Whatever our plans are in the future, the juvenile members, especially those in their teen-ages, should be given every opportunity to share in them. There is an im portant place for them in almost (^very activity promoted by the So ciety, whether it be social, cultural, recreational or enrollment of new members. Our problem is to gain the confidence and respect of the young people of the Society in such a way that they will join our affairs and activities of their own free will. That is always the best way. We can help to achieve this aim by constantly trying to conduct our lodge meetings, social events, sports and other activities in a manner, so at tractive and appealing to them, that thqy will prefer to be with us rather than anywhere or with anyone else By setting good examples, by re newing the higher standards of the Society, and by putting into effect a worthwhile program of work, rec rcatipn and entertainment, we can do much to get the young people to take a deeper pride and more sin cere interest in the lodge to which they belong. While this is no short cpt to success, it will in the end prove the best way of reaching the youth and getting them to assume a share of the responsibility of fra ternal' service in the SNPJ.

The new by-laws, effective for the next four years, beginning with January 1947, provides for an addi tional officer in the lodge manag ing committee. He shall have the title of Director of Juvenile Activl ties and his duties shall be mainly to organize and promote such worth while activities among the juvenile members of his locality as will en courage them to take a greater in terest and a more active part in the affairs of the lodge and Society. This is an important office and, there fore, should not be treated light ly. Every lodge, having a sufficient number of Juvenile members, should not hesitate to elect some one fill the office at the annual meeting in December. All lodges will have one more meeting before the annual session, and it is suggested that you devote a goodly part of it to dis cussion of your juveniles and the election of a Director of Juvenile Activities. It will be time well spent. More about this later.

Loyalites!
CLEVELAND, O—1 wonder how many people realise what a grand Ume is in store for them if they attend the Loyalite Anniversary Christmas dance. Be sure to ask any Loyalite for your invitation, and I'm suit that a cordial invitation will be extended to you.
The ever-popular Pappy Howard and hia Connecticut Colonels of station WJW in Cleveland will be there to put on a fine ahow, with them he is featuring Tex Ann, popular cowgirl aongtftress, and judy Dell,
Cleveland's leading and foremost lady singer. The Radio Guild of Cleveland elected Judy becauae of her beautiful toice and fine radio performance. Incidentally, Judy Dell is an SNPJ member and will soon be a Loyalite. Then for your dancing pleasure Lenny Paul aiul his orchestra will render those fine Slovene waltses, polkus, fox trots, and what have you.
REMEMBER, to get your invitation as early as ptwsible, as there will be a limited amount of invita t ions. For out of town friends who wiah to attend, please notify the secretary of the Loyalite Lodge and she will mall them to you upon ro» quest.
This last weekend proved to be a hectic one for quite a few people, Starting out Friday night we didn't realise that there were po many places where a Loyalite could visit a fellow member at work. Stopping at Doc Gregorčič filling atation on Waterloo and 157th to have our oil and water checked, we crossed the street to visit Frank (Chilly) Cell-guy in hia refreshment emporium so that the gals would be able tr show their skill in making a high toore on hia skeebsll machine ant to win a pair of nylon stockingi Then we decided to buss duwn t* see Frankle Yankovich in his new!) nemodeled night club and to listen to his Columbia Recording orchestra Agreeing that the hour of rest we drawing near we decided to stop at one more place to dine, so off t< the K A S Bar where Frank Zadel rvea us some of that deltcioir corned beef which is hard to flm' nowadays. Driving down we pasrt«! Brrchie Kromar's Four Points Tuv-ern, Frank Perme's Home Equip mrnt. snd Jean Hebar's Beauty Shoppe. Thus ending a perfect Frt day night.
Saturday night proved to ba even more hectic for some of us. those who were fortunate enough to hsve been honored with sn invitation frgm our nagihboring SNPJ lodge the Utopians, to aUend the veterans party and dance. The spirit and good fellowship al this affair proved that fraternaliam still exists, and will fo many years to come. The dinner was one of the best, topping it off with many fine speakers, such a* Rudy Lisch, Whitey Matthewa, Johnny Hpilar, and not to forge* the Vets who were men of few worda, but with words of espres* sion that meant a good deal. Dancing and refreahmenta were serve J till we* hours of the morning snd believe me there wss plenty of everything.
Drultvo Mir snd Loyalite Vete-ians banquet and dance will be held on two separate dates, March U< and March 8. Due to tbq inadequate facilities to accommodate the oom* bined group, it was unanimously agreed upon by both lodges to have separata affairs,
Josephine Klarich from lodg" Wolverines of Detroit, p4d, Cleveland a visit. It was nice to aee that out-of-lowri friends have not foi> gotUn Cleveland, and makes ua leallse that the dlstanoe be tweet these two fine eitiee is a matter pi a few miles. Yes, we think HeUoit will lie visited In the near future.
Arrangements havtt been mad« for a Benefit Howlers Da nee for our lodge on February 1st. More will be heard about thia in the very neat future,

this and That
By Peter Ellsh Early and Often
In the "good old days" they voted um early and often. And when the voW*s were counted, the opposition didn't have enough votes for the dig-ita on a hand, excluding the thumb. It was not strange for "controlled" precinets to return a blank vote for the opposition.
Charactera of all descriptions from flop • house bums to the painted ladies that hanged out at the numerous bars and saloons were herded and voted. Some-times in the course of a day they voted several times at various precincts.
Marking ballots, stuffing ball'ii boxes, and stealing ballot boxes were not infrequent. Some of the tricks uaed would put the late Adolf Hitler to ahame, and would even make a Mexican politician feel envious. '
Michael "Hinky Dink" Kenna was a little man phyaically. But fpr more than fifty years, he was Chi-ugo's most powerful politician. For years he served us an alderman 'rom the notorious First Ward. WUh John "Bath-house" Coughlin aa a partner, Hlnky Dink ran hia ward with an iron hand.
"Baththousc" ran the saloons and the dives, ami Hlnky Dink 'voted' their owners and occupants.
They, however, were not averse to charity, Down-and-outers would >e treated kindly and given hand->uts. The poor and their children would receive gifts on the holidays. Favors and special rights would be jranlod to the faithful.
By doing thk, and by their politi-al manipulations, they were able ♦0 survive the political suirms of the Windy City from Carter Harrl-«on to Ed Kelly.
Old uge and death ended their leign. "Hlnky Dink" died a few weeks ago st the ripe age of 88.
Polities wal" prof liable to him, He loft an estate variously eaU-mated from uqs to two million. Cold cash in d^oosit boxes amounted to another million. Not bad for s ward heeler.
And the contribution that he and his like made to bad government can't be calculated.

(Continued from pa|r 5» main office always st Irsst two persons who understand ih" work in thr distributing drpartmrnt which differs from other deperiments because of machi- v Thr work in this department is rtradilv increasing and it ts likely that other work will lie added t J this depeitmcnt In the future
Considering all this. 1 have mmr to thr enn-cIuskhi that It would be brnrfictal for thr aori< t v If the assistant secretary would hr delegat«d as hrad ot thto drpartmrnt It ts understemd that the work of the assistant srerrtary remains under the supt i vision of the supreme secretery and
executive committee, which means that the department will handle all the work oasigned to it now and that may be assigned in the future. If the board sgrers with this idrs. thr convrntion csn approve it without losing sny time with the qurstion.
Thr msln intention of this plsn Is to alwsys have one member of the executive committee., trained in thts work, since other mrmbrrs of the committrr have no time nor opportunity to study this work. It is difficult for one thst is not acquaints with this work to supervisr it. that's why it seems to mr important and nrcrsaary that thts meeting takes up this suggestion
In conclusion. I hope that this meeting will solve lei metiers satisfectorily and« thus lighten thr ww k of thr convrntion.

Sights at First Dance Of Slovene Youth Club
CLEVELAND. O.—Sights at the first dance held by the Slovene American Youth Club at the SND on St. Clair on Oct. 11 for the benefit of the Children's Hospital in Slovenia.
One of the things that gave a holiday spirit to this "first" dance was the fact that many of the girl members of the Youth Club wore the gaily colored national Slovene costumes. They also wore the traditional carnation and even a sprig of rožmarin which is barely found in this country.
The dance committee chairman enjoyed running things. He stopped long enough to greet happily some former classmates of his from Fenn College whom he hadn't seen in several years.
Mr. Tavcar tinkered efficiently with the coffee urn which the girls soon had producing lots of delicious hot coffee.
During the intermission a vet from the club described the devastation by Nazis of the Jugoslav land and the resulting great need of the half million orphaned children.
Many servicemen were among the fellows who bought three drawing tickets, hoping to win the beautiful big Slovene costumed doll for their favorite girl. All the girls longed to win the doll, but a man succeeded in winning!
The Detroit Youth Cltfb delegates turned up after an eventful auto trip from the Motor City. They were fed after one of the fellows went home and cleaned the house of every slice of bread to supply bread for cheese sandwiches. And another club member disappeared and reappeared with -an unwrapped, warm, crusty loaf from the next-door baker under each arm. A big white cake was served to celebrate the Detroit and Cleveland Youth clubs' reunion.
The gang went home with smiling faces because the dance was a success in many ways and would live on to do continuous good.

Matthews Torrid Strike Spree Nets 709 Series; Ross Raps 259 as Records Fall
CLEVELAND, OHIO.—It's a long bumpy road, but someday . . . After a decade of league competition, Joe 'Whitey* Matthews, diminutive fiery anchorman of the Utopian No. 1 maple maulers, finally realized his lifelong ambition, a kegler's dream a coveted 700 series! Whitey wheel-ad his unerring ebonite consistently in the strike zone to mark up an alltlme Cleveland SNPJ League record with a tremendous 709 series garnered on scorchers of 249, 227 and 233.
Always up in the high 80's in average this gentleman's previous best was a 686 set rolled last year in the Waterloo Home loop. Before game time your writer who had bowled off his games op the first shift on the same 1 and 2 lanes un-waringly remarked to this dynamic towhead, "The way these alleys are running tonight you should get 700." So as fate has its queer quirks Mr. Matthews made this scribe's prediction come true. Whitey's brilliant burst spearheaded hig teammates' to a 2811 series and a 975 single, both of which rank second in the standings. Eddie Stefanic with a 549 series was high for the opposing Loyalite No. 5 crew who were submerged by plenty.
Over across the alleys on 7 and 8 Frank Ross of the Csmrades compiled a fine 259 game, highest score posted so far this season. Possessor of a 134 average Frank started off with a spare in the initial inning,
the hurdles in all three skits by the tenth place Lodge Cleveland No. 2 Underdogs. Frankie Ostanek rated the leading bad man role in this startling upset with a 592 series. Tony Prime with a 492 series was best for the pregame favorites who were "definitely off!"
Sideline Slant«: The Utopian No. 1 Beerbarrel gang attired in blazing red shirts must have caught the spirit of the occasion for they really went to town. If that eye glaring color brings abput those 700 series, Capt. Benedict, bring out that dye! . . . Around the establishment doing a bit of speculating were Mr. and j Mrs. Marn. Mrs. M. Poklar, A. Pok- j lar, Simcic, Prime, Japel and Kurat. Also the Misses Albina Gruden and Joyce Gorshe . . . Tony Gerchman dashing in and out of the alleys and barroom. No, not for beer, but continuously attacking that peanut machine. Nuts! . . . Eddie Benedict picking off the 10 pin on the first ball and the 6 on the following cast In the opening frame. Save those trick shots, Bud! . . . Adolph Perdan of the Utopians and manager of the alleys in Gleriville Hospital for an operation. Get well quick, Adolph!
