C« 25. maja.— Predsednik Truma n je pozval kongres, naj raztegne program socialne zaščite, da se olajša položaj starih in potrebnih ljudi v času inflacije in dviganja živ-Ijenskih stroškov. Priporočila uključuje posebna poslanica, katero je.paslovil kongersu. Tru-man je pOudaril v poslanici, da je hitra akcija potrebna. Predsednik je opozoril kongres, da je borba za obstanek onih, katerih edini dohodki so plačila iz sklada socialne zaščite, težka, ker cene stalno naraščajo. V poslanici je orisal pao-gram izboljšanja in raztegnitve socialne zaščite. Truman je med drugim predlagal: Zvišanje sedanje podpore $25 na mesec najmanj za 50 odstotkov. Davčni mesečni prispevki, ki znašajo sedaj en odstotek, naj se zvišajo na 1 Vi1'/* 1. januarja prihodnje leto namesto leto pozneje. Obdavčenje letnega zaslužka naj se zviša na $4,800. Sedanja omejitev je $3,000. Raztegnitev socialne zaščite na 20,000,000 delavcev. ,V tej kategoriji ao poljedelski delavci, hišni uslužbenci in samouposlenci, katerih ne krije zakon socialne zaščite. Raztegnitev sistema brezposel-nostnega zavarovanja na uslužbence malih firm. To so one, ki -uposjujejo manj ko osem delav cev. Sistem naj bi kril tudi federalne uslužbence in druge, ki sedaj niso zaščiteni. Brezposel-nostna podpora naj se zviša onim, ki imajo velike družine. Odškodninsko zavarovanje, ki naj bi ščitilo delavce, ki izgube zaslužek zaradi bolezni in poškodb. Federalna vlada naj bi nudila finančno podporo državam, ki bodo preskrbele tako pomoč. Ženske naj bi bile deležne starostne pokojnine, ko dosežejo starost 60 let, ne 65 let, kot sedaj. Zavarovani delavec ne more iti v pokoj, ko je star 65 let, ker njegova žena, ako je mlajša, ni deležna podpore.

C.. 25. maja.— Zahteve, naj Amerika odreče Veliki Britaniji ekonomako pomoč na podlagi Marahallovega načrta, ker zalaga arabske dežele z orožjem in strelivom, so se slišale v kongresu. Kongres-nik Celler, demokrat iz New Yorka, je zahteval, naj gredo ameriške bojne ladje v akcijo proti Lebanonu, ker je vlada te arabske države zavrnila zahtevo, da mora izpustiti 41 ameriških državljanov, ki so bili zaseženi na ameriškem parniku Marine Carpu v Beirutu zadnjo sredo in odvedeni v vojaško taborišče, 4,Akc!ja Lebanona je žaljenje Amerike," je rekel Celler. "Naše bojne ladje naj odrinejo v Beirut in izsilijo izpustitev ame riških državljanov. To naj bo dokaz, da mi mislimo, kar govorimo. Ako se bo lebanonska vlada še upirala, naj govore topovi." ~ Kongresnik Javita, republikanec iz New Yorka, je predlagal ustavitev ameriške ekonomske pomoči Veliki Britaniji, ker zalaga arabske dežele z orožjem in strelivom. Njegov predlog je podprl kongresnik Sabath, demokrat iz Chicaga. Državni department je naznanil, da bo poslal novo zahtevo lebanonski vladi, naj izpusti a-meriške državljane. iz članske kampanje Društva v Pennsylvaniji pokazala največ živahnosti; do sdaj se ie odivalo 156 društev; članice nosijo zastavo! Opozicija proti vojaiki konskripciji Washington, D. C., 25. maja.— Upanje predsednika Trumana, da bo kongres sprejel načrt vojaške konskripcije na sedanjem zasedanju, je izginilo. Senatni odsek za vojaške zadeve je glasoval proti načrtu, kar pomeni, da ne bo prišel na dnevni red. Mnogo organizacij je vodilo opozicijo proti načrtu vojaške konskripcije. Načrt so podprli Truman, obrambni tajnik Forrestal in člani generalnega štabu. tegnitev in izboljšanje sistema socialne zaščite, ker sta uposle nost in zaslužek dosegla najvišjo točko.

Rosenblum je podal svoje svarilo v obrambo svojega stališča, da mora CIO ostati v Svetovni delavski federaciji. On je odgovoril Emilu Rieveju, predsedniku unije tekstilnih delavcev, ki je zahteval, naj CIO izstopi iz mednarodne delavske federacije. Delegacija je navdušeno pozdravila Roeenblumovo stališče. "Reakcija ni proti komunistom, ampak proti nam, proti organiziranim delavcem," je naglastl "Rooseveltovega novega deala niso uničili komunisti, temveč reakcionarji; komunisti niso porazili progresivne kongreanike, ampak so to storili reakcionar ji.

Ta dvojni jubilej je velikega pomena za jednoto in vsa naša društva. Predstavlja dva valna kantona v življenju jednote. Z ustanovitvijo mladinskega oddelka pred 35 leti, ko je bilo na višku priseljevanje Slovencev v to Novo deželo, so naši pionirji storili izredno važen korak,« katerim ao vrata jednote odprli tudi naraščaju ter s tem poskrbeli ta dotok mlade krvi, brez katere je vsaka organizacija obsojena na pogin. Važen je bil tudi sklep clevelandake konvencije leta 1M7 za ustanovitev mladinskih krožkov, v katerih ie našemu naraščaju dana prilika, da se udejstvuje v jednoti, ši bistri um in pripravlja na svoje življenjske naloge.

Lawmdalo Ave^ Chicago 29, Illinois iVašc napredno ženstvo Progresivnim Slovenkam, organizaciji naših naprednih žena, že precej časa dolgujemo vzpodbudno besedo in skromne čestitke k njih lepemu organizacijskemu napredku in razmahu, ki ga kažejo zadnje mesece. Dasi smo pri Prosveti in sploh v glavnem uradu SNPJ od vsega začetka z zanimanjem sledili temu preporodu Progresivnih Slovenk, naj nam oproste njih članice, ki so v pretežni večini tudi članice naše jednote, ako nismo tega do zdaj odprto povedali. Z veseljem smo jim šli na roko pri urejevanju in objavljanju njih vesti in poročil v Prosveti, kar bomo delali tudi v bodoče. Držali smo se gesla, da dejanja glasneje govore kakor pa besede. Na mestu pa je seveda vedno tudi dobra beseda, katero so ai Progresivne Slovenke pošteno zaslužile, posebno še zadnje čaae, ko so pokazale živo voljo do življenja. To je potrdila tudi njih zadnja konvencija, ki se je vršila 15. in 10. maja v Cleve-landu. Organizacija Progresivnih Slovenk je bila rojena pred desetimi leti v naši slovenski metropoli.. Ne vemo ali je krivo naše napredno ienatvo ali smo krivi Adamovi sinovi, da ta organizacija ni dobila razmaha do zadnjega časa, marveč je ostala le lokalna ustanova, koncentrirana v Clevelandu s štirimi krožki in nekaj sto članicami. Najbrž* je krivda na obeh straneh: pri moških, ker jim nismo dali vzj^odbude, pri našem naprednem ženstvu pa, ker izven Cleve landa niso pokazale volje in zanimanja, da bi si zgradile svojo prosvetno in družabno organizacijo pod okriljem Progresivnih Slovenk. Polje so prepustile klerikalnim silam, ki so si zgradile dokaj močno žensko organizacijo. Do spontanega preporoda med našim naprednim ženstvom je prišlo šele zadnjo jesen. Kaj je nanje specifično učinkovalo, je lahko predmet ugibanja. Toda zdi se nam, da je v njih dozorela že dalj časa tleča želja po lastni napredni organizaciji, pod katere okriljem se bodo lahko shajale na sejah in prosvetno-družabnih sestankih kot svobodne Slovenke In ameriške državljanke obeh pokolenj, mati in hčere, brez da bi se treba komi\ klanjati ali se križati. Drugače si skoraj ne moremo tolmačiti dejstva, da je bilo zadnje mesece ustanovljenItt okrog ducata krožkov Progresivnih Slovenk v raznih naselbinah. In ustanovljeni so bili na lqstno iniciativo, povsem spontano, brez kakšne posebne kampanje. Naj bolj so bile tega vesele naše napredne Clevelandčanke, ki so toliko let samovale in želele, dasi bolj tiho, da bi se jim pridružile tudi napredne rojakinje po drugih naselbinah širom dežele. Tega je bila izredno vesela zlasti tajnica Progresivnih Slovenk Josephinc Zakrajšek, ki je v, zadnjih mesecih obiskala naselbine, kjer so se ustanovili novi krožki. N Ako smo pravilno informirani, imajo Progresivne Slovenke zda okrog 15 krožkov in blizu 2,000 članic. Za kratko dobo tega preporoda med našim naprednim ženstvom je to že lep napredek Toda pol le za nadaljnl razmah Progresivnih Slovenk je Še Široko kajti do zdaj Je vključenih V to organizacijo le dober ducat nasel-• bin. Ker naš^ napredno ženstvo ni omejeno le na te naselbine kakor tudi ne na starejše, to je v starem kraju rojene rojakinje je želeti, da zrastejo krožki Progresivnih Slovenk po vseh naselbinah širom dežele. Takih naselbin Je še dosti v Ameriki. V te krožke naj zlasti pritegnejo svoje hčere In snahe—tukaj rojena dekleta, med katerimi ie dosti talentiranih in inteligentnih moči s srednješolsko ali višješolsko izobrazbo, dosti dobrega organiza cijskega materiala. * Zelo razveseljivo je dejstvo, da imamo med nami lepo število razumnih in naprednih delavskih žena. Sicer se pe ponašajo a siednješolsko, Še manj pa z višješolskft izobrazbo—izjeme so le tedke med starejšo generacijo. Niih šola je bilo življenje, večinoma zelo trdo živhenje Kot zdrava kmečka dekleta, na splošno s hlabo osnovno šolsko izobrazbo so prišle v novo deželo, na tuja tla, kjer si je bilo treba ustanoviti novo eksistenco. Mnoge so prtšle z dežja pod kap. kajti v tej deželi jih je čakalo enako ali pa še bolj trdo življenje kakor je bilo v starem kraju na kmetih. Kot žene tovarniških delavcev ali rudarjev so šle mnoge, s svojimi možmi in otroki vred, skozi težke delavske boje. In brezpo aelnoat. Poleg družine mi se mnoge ukvarjale tudi s "purši" in garale kot črna živina po 15-18 ur na «lan »edem dni v tednu, letr za letom. Za čitanje Je bilo malo časa ali sploh nič.

Tudi v politični Glasovi iz naših naselbin VABILO NA PROSLAVO V HERMINIEJU Harminle, Pa.—Javnosti je že znano, da sta se združili angl«-¿ko diuštvo in št. 87 SNPJ v Herminieju. Staro društvo se je odpovedalo imenu, angleško pa številki, tako sedaj naše društvo posluje v angleškem jeziku pod imenom Keystonians št. 87 SNPJ. Naši mladi člani imajo v svojih rokah tudi vsa odbor-niška mesta. Naša prva slavnost s koncertom se bo vršila 5. Junija v Sewick High School-avditoriju. Na programu bo tamburaški orkester univerze Duquesne s spremljanjem hrvaških in slovenskih pesmi. Začetek ob pol osmih zvečer* Kftncprt bo trajal dve uri, nato pa bo občinstvo povabljeno v naš Narodni dom, kjer bo ista godba igrala za ples. Seve, na razpolago bo tudi Q-krepčilo. Starejši člani pa bodo morda kakšno "Wingali". Bratje in sestrt\čas.ni več daleč pri našem društvu, ko bo imel sv. Peter dorfti posla s starimi herminiensMimi grešniki. Pri društvu je kikih 30 članov, ki so v starosti mffMQ. in 70. letom. Torej seddi m iß vedno čas, da uživamo ži^l/enje, saj ga ne bomo več dolg Naše društvo bo faktično praznovalo tri obletnice: 40-letnico starega društva 87, 30-letnico angleško poslujočega društva in 10-letnico mladinskega, krožka. Danes društvo šteje vseh članov okrog 450, kar je lepo število zp naselbino kot je Harminle, posebno če vzamemo v poštev, da se ie mnogo članov izselilo ob času stavk, ker niso mogli po Izgubljenih bitkah več dobiti la. Nekajkrat so poizkušali r tukajšnjimi Slovenci do kraja počistiti, a se jim ni posrečilo, to pa zato ne, - ker sftio trdno branili našo trdnjavo. Ako bodo mladi stopali po naših stopinjah, bodo marsikaj dosegli, v nasprotnem slučaju se j im pa nič dobrega ne obeta. V časopisih že čitamo, kaj vse jih čaka. SNPJ je vsa leta dobro orala ledino in stari Člani so se učili ubogati, zato so želi uspeh. Mladi člani pa so se v šolah nasitili krepkega individualizma in nekateri se iz nas norčujejo. Naše vprašanje je to: Ako je krepki individualizem na tako zdravih nogah, zakaj se sedaj vpeljava prisilna vojaška služba v tej deželi? Torej nekaj milijonov mlade-ničev bodo vtaknili v vojaško suknjo, delavci bodo pa morali za vse to plačevati, kajti oboroževanje in vzdrževanje velike armade je zelo drag špas. Ko pa tudi to ne bo dovolj nenasitnim profitarjem, potem pa — bum, bum, bum! Bratje in sestre, še ni prepoz no. Demonstrirajmo ob vsaki priliki, da snffo proti oboroževanju in pošiljajmo v tem smislu telegrame in resolucije v Washington. Povejmo našim politi-karjem, da *e ne strinjamo z njihovo politiko. V Prosveti in Enakopravnosti te bil priobčen lep članek v počasi materam.

Med drugim je delal, da ameriške matere In matere vsega sveta tele mir vse bolj kot cvetice na Materinski dan. S cveticami obsipavamo tudi vojake, ko korakajo na fronte, kajti slutimo, da se mnogi ne bodo nikdar več vrnili. Bratje in sestre, ali ste poslušali VVallacea po radiu? Oh je pozival, naj se oklenemo tretje stranke, ki ima namen vse reformirati v korist ljudstva in podpisati stoletni mir z vsemi narodi sveta. Denar, ki je sedaj namenjen za oboroževanje, na§ bi se raje porabil za izobrazbi za bolnice, katerih nam primanjkuje, dajje za p9dporo pohabljencem, stat os ti. o pokojnino itd. Na ta način bomo lahko zidali pravo krš&nsko ljubezen do svojih bližnjih, ne pa z / mečem, puško in atomsko bombo! Naj še omenim, da se bo vršil piknik westmorelandsk£ federacije SNPJ 18. julija v parku Beachwood, katerega že vsi poznate. Upamo, da se tudi to leto odzovete v velikem številu, kot druga leta.

V resnici se zadnja leta v našem Javnem in društvenem življenju marsikje dogaja, da žensk« stopajo v ospredje. To vidimo zlasti pri naših angleško poslujočth društvih, ko so dekleta ali žene marsikje glavna gonilna sila In kažejo več smisla za skupnost, za organiaàcijo kakor pa moèki. Toda naše napredne članice stopajo v oapredje tudi pri naših starejših društvih in prevzemajo najbolj odgovorna mesta Marsikak«) društvo ima danm "tajnika v kiklji". ki v pridnosti vestnosti in hposobnoati nič ne zaostajajo za moškimi.

Nadalje hvala na$emu"br; Mathu Plnku, ki je zastonj igral in tako veliko pripomogel do dobrega uspeha. Se najlepše pa se moramo zahvaliti voditeljici krožka ses. Gertrude Taucher, ki je tako neumorno delala in učila mladino. Od rije je Še posebno lepo, ker se tako zanima zm našo mladino, dasi ni slovanskega pokoljenja. V znak priznanja ji je društvo 518 poklonilo lep šopek cvetic, prav tako krožek št.' 29 z vzhodne strani mesta. Sedaj pa moram protestirati proti nekaterim tako zvanim voditeljem SNPJ. Zato priredbo smo namreč {>ovabili našega gl. podpredsednika. Mislili smo, ker živi v Detroitu, bi bilo primerno, da bi prišel in spregovoril naši mladini nekaj besed v angleščini, kar bi bilo v veliko vzpodbudo mladini in moralno dobro vplivalo. Toda on je čakal z odgovorom do četrtka pred predstavo in tudi tedaj smo ga morali prositi za odgovor.' Povedal nam je, da je preveč zajx>slen z drugim delom in da ne bo mo^el priti na priredbo mladinskega krožka. Tu nastane vprašanje, katero delo je bolj važno zanj, ali tisto, za katero ga je izvolila konvencija SNPJ, ali ono drugo? Ali so njegove dolžnosti in delo za dobrobit SNPJ bolj postranska stvar? Naše mnenje je, ako kdo prevzame neko delo in se zaveže, da ga bo vestno izvrševal, potem pa ga radi drugega dela žanemarja, nastane vprašanje, katero delo hoče obdržati, ako ne more obeh izvrševati. Delo, ki je samo napol narejeno, ni nikako delo. Dne 13. maja smo imeli tukaj Wallacev shod, ki je bil precej dobro obiskan. Wallace je precej udrihal po senatorju Van-denbergu in njegovi politiki. Na shodu je bilo nabranih nekaj čez $30,000. Reakcija je bila drugi dan nekam poparjena in ni imela nikakega odgovora na Wallaceve trditve. Ko pa je enkrat prišla malo k sapi, je pa zakričala, da smo bili okradeni, da je zmanjkalo šest vrečič z gotovino. Ko pa sem pozneje vprašal nekoga, ki je bil eden vodilnih funcionarjev na shodu, kaj Je na stvari, pa mi je povedal. da ne morejo ugotoviti, kaj Za ples bo igral orkester "Va-gabond" iz Sharona, Pa.

Glasovi iz naselbin POROČILO O VESELICI DRUŠTVA 140 SNPJ Brooklyn. N. Y. — Veselica društva Bratska zveza Ao SNPJ, ki se je vršila 8. maja, je precej dobro uspela, bolje je kot Je kazalo od začetka. Prešteval sem navzoče člane in jih naštel samo—10! Sam pri selfi sem mislil, da bomo šli gotovo v "dog hoti^i", toda ob desetih zvečer je bila dvorana vsaj deloma napolnjena. «Navzočih je bilo okrog 80 oseb. Toda nikar ne mislite, da so bili to člani našega društva. To bi bilo kar preveč. Pozneje sem še enkrat štel in ugotovil, da je bilo samo 12 članov našega društva in štiri članice. Na veselico je prišel tudi br. "^J®-Anton Staudohar, ki je star že nad 80 let in stanuje v Jamaici, oočim člani v bližini niso mogli priti. Vsem članom in drugim rojakom, ki so se udeležili te prired-ve, se v imenu društva lepo zahvaljujem, posebno pa Johnu Bižalu in njegovi soprogi Fran-ces, ki sta prišla iz 35 milj oddaljenega Linden Hursta. Prav tako lepa hvala sestri Mary Makst. ki mi je pomagala pro- dajati knjižce. Prodala sva jih za $48, kar nas je rešilo, da nismo šli v luknjo. Dne 9. maja pa so praznovali slovenski tumburaši Materinski dan v Slovenskem doprm. Srečali smo se z mnogimi prijatelji. Vprašal sem jih, zakaj niso prišli na našo veselico, saj sem jim vendar poalal dopisnice. Povedali to mi, do jih niso prejeli, neki rojak, pristen Gorenjec, pa je dejal, da jo je najbrže žena vrgla stran, da je ni videl. Ostali pa so prikimali, da je uganka 99 odstotkov rešena. Kateri član bi rad vedel, koliko dobička smo napravili, na veselici, naj pride na prihodnjo Frank Kuskar. tajnik. PLESNA VESELICA DRUŠTVA 388 SNPJ Stan City. W.

I urge all members to attend our June 20 meeting. The Juvenile Circle members have a program arranged for your entertainment. This is a very important meeting and all members should attend.

This affair will tend to serve as the 25th anniversary celebration of our lodge. The picnic will be held at the Heltman Picnic Grounds, where we held our Federation picnic of the past season. We are also very proud to announce that we will have with us, as our honored guest and speaker for the day/ President Vincent Cainkar. The music will be furnished by Frank Koran, and we have learned that he may have several other musicians to help him and his son Jimmy Koran. We are inviting all our neighboring lodges to plan to visit us on this day, to help make our 25th anniversary celebration a true success. Dancing will start at 1:30 p. m. FRANK HRVATIN JR., Sec y. Veronian News 11 VERONA, Pa—Again remind those of you interested in following the Musical Stylists band; they will play for a dance Friday, May 28, at the Verona High School Gym, South and 1st St., Verona, dance beginning at 0 p. m. The place is large enough to accommodate a great many of you so keep this date in mind and plan to attend.- The regular dance at the Veronian Club will be Saturday, May 20. be-ginning at 10 p. m., featuring Frank Porovne and his Musical Stylists, bringing to you those snappy polkas, waltzes and fox-trots, for your dancing pleasures. The Veronians are pleased to see you members from the different lodges and look forward to playing hosts to you sgain this Saturday. Bring along your friend, for a nice crowd is always on hand and a jrflly time is had by all The Juvenile Directors advise that Juvenile "Kids Night'* will be discontinued after the first of the month during the summer months, but will resume afterwards in the fall They also wish to thank all members who helped make their dance a huge success. The juveniles and regular mem. bers of the club have not been attending the monthly meetings of the club. As stated previously, it Is the duty of esch snd every member to attend these meetings for the club and affairs pertaining to the club are as much your own problem as any other member's. So make an extra effort esch month to attend the meetings when they are scheduled Keep in mind the Western Penns SNPJ Dsy at South Park, Sunday. June 27 Now is a good time to make plana to attend this affair and also offer an hour or two of service to help conduct the affair, CORNELIA GORUN. 600 Liked ' Charity" McCarthy "What did you think cf the ventriloquist*' asked the husband after the vaudeville set 1 didn't think much of him." replied the wife "but the little felk.w on his knee wes awfully clever." highlights of the juvenile . anniversary campaign As the driye for new members progresses into the closing dsys of the second month of the JUVENILE ANNIVERSARY CAMPAIGN, we sre quick to observe from the lstestvstandings that our women contestants continue to predominate in all four of the campaign districts into which the Society has been divided. It is furthsr noted that up to and including last Friday 150 lodges, lets than twenty-five percent, have taken part in the campaign, each having added one or more new members to its respective ranks. This figure, incidentally, is 42 more than was listed at the close of the opening month of the campaign. The results up to this point have been mostly of a non-spectacular variety, although a number of excellent membership gains .were reported in April and the first weeks of May. It sssms that too many of us are not taking this csmpaign seriously enough. Too many of us are putting off till some other time whst ought to be attended to at once. And a great many of us are disregsrding the fad that this csmpaign is being conducted in honor of the 35th Anniversary of the Juvenile Department, a significant event in itself, and also the 10th Anniversary of the Juvenijg Circles, two very good reasons why intensive drives for new members should be organized and carried sut. as successfully as possible, in every locality where SNPJ lodges sre established. • Every ons of the more thsn six hundred lodges in the SNPJ has been assigned a reasonable quote of new members to enroll during the period of the Juvenile Anniversary Campaign. Theae quotas range from ss little as five to a maximum of thirty-five new members, depending on the adult membership of the lodges at the end of last year. For a majority of the lodges this means an average enrsllment of only one and a fraction' new members per month. Only a very small percentage of them hsve been requested to enroll an average of two or more new members esch month of the campaign. Each lodge has eight whole months. April 1 to November 30, in which to reach its quota. This should not be difficult to do. A majority of our lodges should easily succeed in attaining their assigned goals. . Pennsylvania Lodges hold the spotlight of the Juvenile Anniversary Campai^i in District No. 1 again this month. Here the most successful contestant is Sister Polly Slsdick. SecreUry and Circle Director of Lucky Star Lodge 710, Imperial. Pa., who now has a total of 23 new members to her credit, having added 0 more this month. She is still the leader in her district and the national contest, while the same honor, likewise, is held by the lodge. I At South view. Pa.. Sister Patricia Patnesky, member of Lodge 205, is rapidly making a name for herself in the current membership contest. She came through recently with a splendid gain of 7 new members which, together with her previous enrollments, add up to a total of nine. This places her second in the district contest for individual honors. Excelsiors. Lodge 721 of Aliquippa. Pa., are also obtaining excellent results in the campaign- So far this month 1 new members have been enrolled which gives the lodge a total of 12 altogether, only eight less than the quota designated for it. Although several campaign credit cards are missing, we are nevertheless able to report that Sisters Frances Zakrat-sak. co-director of the locsl Juvenile Circle snd Anna Ranlcs, lodge secretary, have been instrumental in securing new members in this strong SNPJ community. Mray Vidmar, Secretary of Adrija Lodge 3, Johnstown, Pa., a veteran of many SNPJ campaigns, is again active in this drlvs. To dste she hss enrolled 0 new members, five of whom were secured in the past two weeks. Sister Vidmar is one of our really outstanding campaigners, as records show that she alon* has accounted for a total of 175 pew members in campaigns held since she took over the secretaryship of the lodge back in 1042. Few members hsve equslled or surpsssed this superistive mark. iPlvs nsw members were slso added to the growing ranks df Lodge 202, Avelia, Pa., increasing the total for the campaign to eleven. Active in improving the standing of the lodge in the membership drive are Frank Zrimm, Pauline Oebelak and Vera Bresko. Nice going, Avelia SNPJ! The outstanding enrollment of new members in the Second Campaign ' District resulted from the surprisingly good work of Sister Mary Opstrny, ' an active member of Cardinal Lodge 040, Bridgeport, Ohio, who secured 0 new members snd in reselling this total also topped the quota of the lodge. She is the first contestant to achieve this goal In her district and second in the Society. Congratulations, Sister Opatrny, and keep U3 the good work you have started. Credit for ths second best gain in this district goes to Brother Frank Mivs«. member of the National Athletic Board and Secretary of Danlca Lodge 105, Indianapolis, Ind., who procured 5 new adult members as his opening contribution to the Juvenile Anniversary Campaign. We under-ctand that Brother Mivec is very enthusiastic sbout sports and cultural activities as a medium of inducing and encouraging young people to take a greater interest in lodge affMrs. No doubt the enrollment of new members in this campaign is the beginning of a reconstruction program in Indianapolis. All three local lodges, working together toward the same objective, should take advantage of the many opportunities presented. Top honors for the most prominent membership gain of the month In Cleveland, Ohio, go to Brother Charles Zaksly, Secretary of Nanos Lodge 204, whose efforts also netted a gain of five new members. It became the fourth Lodge in the metropolitan area of Cleveland to reach this total since the start of the campaign. Good news hss been received from Secretary Albin Testen of Lodge 753. L'Anse, Michigsn. this in the form ofjpro more applanations for new members. just enough to earn for it the honor of being the third lodge in the Society to attain its assigned quots—seven new members. Congratulations to L'Anse SNPJ! Now that you have succeeded la reaching your quota, set your sights a little higher. Aim for district and national honors. Good luck to you. Thsrs wss ons outstanding gsin in District No. 3 snd this wss mad«' by Sister Mary Pahuls. Secretary of Lodge 322, Chiaholm. Minn , who showed the way to all other contestants with her splendid gain .of 8 new member«. She now hss s total of 17, only six under the quota set for the lodge.

S. and Slovene Speifking Federations of SNPJ Lodges of Western Pennsylvania at Lodge in South Park, Comets Dance For seversl weeks now Prosvcta has carried announcements of the Comets dance scheduled for Saturday, June 5.' We hope deeply that our members and friends have seen the announcements and have decided to spend that night with the ■members of the Comets lodge. Thq dance is an enthusiastic attempt to raise fund« to send our lodge member« to the National SNPJ Day. We recognise and appreciate that the National SNPJ Day is the- largest annual celebration in our Society. We recognise, too, that our Lodge should participate in this biggest celebration of our SNPJ. But our recognition is more than wishful thinking. In order for our members to go such and enormous distance we know that considerable expense is Involved. So thll dance is being held to underwrite a portion uf the expenses for those Comet members who do attend. Frank Porovne and hi« Musical Stylists have heen engaged to play for the dance. The orchestra is without question one of the best in this area; we believe he Is rated among the liest of Slovene orches-tias in tin* country, Our visitor« may thus be assured of the very best in music. A main feature of the dance will be a polka contest. It will be an attempt, as Brother Richter, lodge president, so appropriately staled, to determine the "king" and "queen" of polka dancing In Western Pennsylvania, Already this contest Is attracting considerable Interest, and we venture a guess that there will be a lot of excitement eliout this feature before the dance Is ended on June 5tn. You are Invited to come out and join ua that night, Plan to participate in the contest, or be one of the interested spectator«. There will lie lots of fun, and the Comets will do everything to make the evening an enjoyable one for you. Pemtsyli'dnis SNPJ Day Pennsylvania SNPJ Day is not a new venture to moat of our members and friends. Tills year's undertaking is scheduled for Sunday, June 27 at the "Lodge" in South Park.

Ohio. — Sometime in June or shortly thereafter, one of Cleveland's or for that matter one of SNPJV finest fraternalisU, will leave our fair city to go back to Jugoslavia. It has been my privilege and honor to associate with this worthy gentleman «ince \he time that lodge Comrades was organized back in 1027 During all this period he has been one of the staunchest supporters of the youth. While up in years, he is nevertheless very young in spirit. This msn hss been s strong «upporter of the SNPJ, a leader in cultural and progressive activities, a hard 'working member of his lodge for many years, a willing volunteer and tirelesa worker at any affair sponsored by the SNPJ Farm, the Cleveland Federation, Ivsn Cankar, Čitalnica, the Slovene National Home, SANC, etc. At meetings when the youth was bedeviled, he was always sure to rise in their defense. The man has somewhat been like a father to lodge Comrades, watching it grow, helping out in their early days and always paving the way for Cooperation when required. By now most of you know 1 am referring to none other than our good friend Bro. Ludvik Medvesek. That others feel the way we do Is evidenced by the response to the testimonial banquet that will be held in his honor on-the afternoon of May 31st at the Slovene National Home. Lodge Comrades at their meeting, voted that the entire executive board should be represented, also voted a substantial donation. We wish publicly to thank Bro. Medvesek for all he has done for us In the past and wish him many yeais of happineas and contentment in Jugoalavia when he rejoins part of his family. Comradsa' mssting A fair size crowd was on hand to take in Comrades' monthly meeting. Sick reports for Christipe Hočevar passed for payment; chknge of policy for A) Simoncic sent thru, likewise birth report for Sis. Frydyck. Bro. Sireel reported on the Federation meeting, also the meeting held regarding the «tatu« of the Slovane Museum. Bowling report was given by Sis. Ross, ln an effort to raise necessary funds for bowling outfits, the Eastern invitational and the National bowling tournaments, motion was made that a committee be appointed ts start the ball a-rolling for a drawing to be held the night of our dance in September. More detail« on this in future edition«. Five tickets for the next SANC affair were purchased. The 81 drawing was won by Jean Beljan. Tony Kushlan was not present to collect the 80 when his name was taken out of the grab bag, In the absence of Pres. Kerxe, Vice Pre« Pauline Spik presided. After the meeting the group stayed to view the movies arranged by Frank Roes.

She has demonstrated her devotion to social democracy. She has indicated by her devotion that social democray will not come in the back door; that It will not collie by fratsr-nixing with groups and individuals who have never accepted it and who, In many cases, hold contempt for it; that It will corns when, and only whan, organised Labor is ready (or It. Labor will not be forced to accept scK'ial democracy, for force means tyranny. These comments are insdii with the deep conviction that the two old political parties hold no promise for American worker« and for a united world based on peace and prosperity for all. They are made with an equal conviction that the present third party, or Progressive Party, with Henry Wallace at the head, without the active eupport of the mass of organised worker« Is a farce.

MICHAEL VRHOVNIK. Juvenile Director Lodge 749 News JOHIWTOWN, Pa—Thank« to Sister Bbie Culkar, Lodge 749 is heard from pretty regularly in the Prasveta, however for myself 1 must admit I have been very lax in writing a friendly article. I've been kept pretty busy. So many things to look alter in the spring of each year. Since I have been last heard from, SNPJ has started a new membership drive and I'm proud to say that Lodge 749 is doing splendidlyv especially the juvenile department. Me misers, if you know of someone whom you can enroll please contact me immediately. I will furnish the necessary applications. Remember last year we were aw aided a certificate of merit, let's see if we can get up into the cash gwards this yesr. Each new member you enroll means cash to you. Congratulation« and best wishes from all of us go out to Frank GIs-voch who was married May 22. Hope you and your bride have manv happy years together, Bro. Glavaeh. Also congratulations to Verne Al-lendorfer who gave birth to a son recently. Sis. Allendorfer didn't faro so well after giving birth to her little boy but we're happy to know that she is once again on the road to recovery. Her little son, John Andrew, is already a member of our juvenile dept. I visited Sis. Theresa Sgontz today and found her feeling much bettor than on ray last visit. Come out once more, Theresa, get some good old sunshine and don't forget to come to our meetings. Sis. Stella DePollo's mother tells me she too is recovering very well after her re-' cent illness. Glad to hear it, Stella. Considering the fact that laat month was the first time we hetd our monthly meeting on a new date, we had a fair attendance. Due to the changes being made at the Slovene Hall we were forced to relinquish our previous meeting date, each second Sunday in the month. The members agreed at the April meeting to hold our monthly meetings eseh second Friday evening of the month at 7:30 Remember the change, members, and attend. We'd all like to see a larger attendance at our meetings. Our "Kitty" is still active and you wouldn't want to mias out on it, would you? You must be present in order to be a winner. I, and many members who attended the Western Pa. Duckpin tournament in Pittsburgh will long remember the enjoyable doy wc spent there. I was especially glad to get acquainted with new faces Sphit-O-Grams ST. LOUIS. Mo.—Activities during the summer months are usually in a lull stage, which points that we have estra time on our hands which can be put forth into our current membership campaign. We Spirits are in campaign district 3 and thus far oui leader is the popular Badger Sec y Fi ances Debelak, with 15 juveniles and three adsR* to her credit. The Spirits oilier i s will mett to discuss the campaign as we must (no maybe) attain our assigned quota of new members. Cash awards sre g|ven for enrolling new members. Our May dance was another successful event added to our list of many. Thanks to our committee chairman, Joe Johnson, O. Markoff. Sis. Vertovsek, Frank Mahnich, likewise to our faithful workers and donators. All proceeds from the ticket sale on the beautiful doll donated by Mrs. Tessie Johnson (Joe's mother) were turned to our Juvenile Circle. The doll was won by Mrs. Aidich Sr, from Springfield, 111. who was . in attendance with friends, the Zaverls. *Her daughter-in-law Mary ia the Lincolnite Circle director. Also with as from Springfield were Cele Yortz, sister Ann Bamch and Sylvia Homez. Come back again, folks! Our Sec y Adella Markoff won the portable radio. All in all we had an enjoyable evening, altho to many of us the date "May 8" was something more than just the date of the Spirits dance. It was V-E Day—plus three year*. In three short years our bigwigs have talked nothing but World War III. So what was all the tooting and celebrating? Today reluctantly and with heavy hearts the American people mturt face the fact that their supposo-to-be peace woo by the sweat of their brows and the blood of their sons is slowly slipping from their grasp. Seems as if the United Nations^machinery is gradually rusting away and its basic principles abandoned. The Sane May Day dance was a grand success, due to the wonderful response from the coal miners in our Illinois towns. From Witt came Luka Podbregar, our champ booster Steve Matkovich and wife. No-komis, Jacob Janesh, his daughter Cecilia and son. Gillespie, Pete Mencek, wife and son, and Frank Bozich. Springfield, Mr. and Mrs. Martin Banich (C. Yartz' parents), Mr. and Mrs. John Dixer, Mary Ann Felber, Rudy Kerar (Lincolnite), Magdalen Krmelj, Lora Devries, and Johnny Philiipich. Ben Id, the Krall family. Belleville, Mr. and Sis. Francos Zimmerman. Sis. Julia Krall was runner-up. Sis. Ducoto donated an attractive Mother's Day cake. Quite an artistic job of decorating and delicious too. Sis. Ida Kaon and the waiter also donated %akes for the social. Cooemauffh Valley SNPJ Ball League JOHNSTOWN.

I remember their swell sportsmanship from baek in 1940, when this league had a total of six teams; the former Flood City and Friendly City Lodges, now known as. the Trojans; South Fork, Bon Air, Triglav, and Adria. From what our scouts say, Adria is the team to beat this year, so stay on your toes, men. TJiat trip to the SNPJ Softball Tournament in Milwaukee is worth fighting for—an award not offered by any local league. That is just one of the many advantages of belonging to a national fraternal organization like the SNPJ. May I suggest that this schedule be clipped out by managers and players for future reference?

Incidentally, the mention of the closing of the bowling season brings to my mind the fact that the result of our Revelier Duckpin League was never announced in our column. The season ended with the first half champs, the Cavaliers, and the second half champs, the Strugglers rolling a three game match to determine the season's championship. At the close of the three games, when the pins were tallied, it was discovered that the match ended in a tie. therefore, another frame had to be rolled between the teams in order to decide the winner. The result of the additional frame gave the Cavaliers claim to the title '1948 Revelier Duckpin Champs.'' Congratulations! Congratulations too to Bih and Anne Knnfelc on the addition of a baby girl to the family and to Rudolph L. Rosenherger who is planning to wed in June—the lucky girl being Dot Moder of the Pittsburgh Morning Stars. The Revellers are now in the midst of planning a gcries of picnics to be held during the summer. All are requested to watch this column for the date* which are to be announced shortly. The popular- Slovene Rozmarin Singing Society of Am bridge, of which quite a few of our Reveliers are members, are holding their first concert since their reorganisation on Sunday. May 30. at the King Auditorium, Melrose Avenue. Am-bridge. The concert will begin at 5:80 p. in. No doubt many of you have heard this group perform. They were quite active in prewar years, however with the Call of most of their men to the armed forces during the war, the group waa forced to disband. As the rren returned from their duty interest in reorganizing grew until in October of 1947 the group reorganized and since that time have been working towards their goal—the concert which is to be held on May 30 I atr suie you will ail want to hear thia group again perform under the direction of their old in ftructor. Mr. Michael Halovach Both Slovene end American numbers will be rendered and. in addi tion aa guest performer they will have tenuis Stanisha. well-known accordionist Immediately following the eocnert a dance will be held with music to be furnished by Johnny Vadnal and his Victor R«c-ording orcheatra of Cleveland.

On May 15, John Pak-lar and Bernice Kokalj were united in matrimony. Johnny is the president of the Badger lodge. Again our sincere congrats and best wishes to both couples. Frances Debelak, our energetic sec'y, came thru in the Slovene Woman's Union receqt bowling tour-ney in Chicago with a 52« for second in the singles. The Badger girls' loofl went thru their final paces last week. The champs are the Ya-Ya-You-Got-It-Good Club. The team was sponsored by Joe and Marie (Lonkner) Busch. The team was composed of Ann Evancich, Evelyn Erickson, Pat Stram, Marge Hoffman, and Lill Hammei Mry 21—Yes sir, folks, this is the date of our regular monthly meeting. The regular routine of business will be taken care of and then we will have something different in the way of entertainment. It will be called "A Night in Slovenia." Po-tica and klobase there will be plenty and music you will love to listen to. Also some novel acts will be put on by the membership. So make it a date, you Badgers, and be sure to bring some other Badger along who has not been to a meeting lately. Place, Rebernisek's hall, S. 6th nad W. Bruce st. July 25—This is the date of the annual Badger picnic. It will be held at Sagadin's Grove, S. 38th and W. Burnham st. Don't forget, folks, that the membership drive is in full swing. Get that new member now and (fxplain the benefits derived from belonging to the SNPJ. Three Badgers are on the sick list. They are Agnes Martin, 6744 W. Monona ave., Matt Smole Sr., 1124 S. 58th St., and Ursula Gaspe-ric who is at the Highland Nursing Home. 3009 W. Highland ave. Visit the sick whenever possible. It is your fraternal duty at all time and will help the sick person get on the road to recovery. Another^important item that the members fverlook is that so many m6ve to a new address and fail to notify the sec'y. And then on top of that they wonder why they don't get the weekly edition of the Pro-sveta. So when moving, please notify the sec'y at once. A recent visitor to our city was Rudie Pugel of Detroit who's done right well by himself in bowling sleepers in and around the city. SALTY. 584 (Ed. note: Sorry; your airmail letter postmarked May 17, 1:30 pm, reached us after last week's paper went to press.) FLASHES SANS Meeting This Weekend CLEVELAND—The three Cleveland chapters of SANS. Nos. 30. 48, and 106, are hosts this weekend, Saturday and Sunday, May 29 and 30, to officers of feANS chapters in Slovene communities from many corners of our country. Committee meetings will be in session on Saturday and Sunday morning, and on Sunday afternoon, beginning at 4 o'clock, an interesting and varied program will climax the weekend's business and the work of the year. Etbin Kristan. honorary chairman of SANS and F. A. Vider, its national chairman, are to speak on SANS projects and current developments in the national and international scene. Mr. Kristan has been the guiding star of SANS since its inception, and his messages never fail to provide real inspiration and stimulating ideas. Mr. Vider, always a forceful and fervent speaker, will report on SANS progress and problems. Since one of SANS's projects this year is to work for the election of a liberal and understanding president. it is most fitting that a third speaker add his voice to those of Mr. Kristan and Mr Vider. It seems like a very long time since a candidate for public office has expressed hie awareness that one of our country's richiesl resources is the weave of minority and nationality groups into our notion's tapestry Roosevelt recognised that ncbness. and it influenced him deeply. It was not llp-servicc. but a guide for action with him It is regrettable that we had to wait so long for such a president, and more regrettable still, that this social intelligence was not inherited by his successor. ■ • • One man. however, fully appreciated Roosevelt's insight, and he has added some deeper awarenees of his own. in many respects he comes much closer tn the people s problems than FDR ever did— but then the problems have rrultl-plted and intesified almost daily Mnre F D R died As his envoy to the Slovene eom> munity in Cleveland and to SANS visitors.

Lotrich CHICAGO—The Pioneers held a good meeting last Friday night with a reasonable attendance. We went through the formality of approving eleven medical reports, accepted 1 new member and 2 by Uansfer and discussed several subjects spiritedly. Josefoh Jereb, secretary of the Sunday Interluslge Bowling League, presented the Pioneer girls with a trophy for winning the women's division title. We selected John and Ida Simon and Mayme Cerkoney to represent us at the Educational Bureau conference in Milwakee on June 6. Bowling was the predominating activity in the past few months, so we heard all types of bowling reports, but we didn't have any scores from Detroit as yet. Several nominations of new members were made and the secretary passed out a number of applications for membership. • • • Josephine Mersol tells us that 24 Pioneer girls are already signed up for next year's league. Others wanting to bowl should notify us soon, so that a larger league can be arranged, if necessary. Among the men, Frank Kulhanek, Carmen Piz-zuto, John Cherway, Frank Carr, Frank Sodriik, Charles Rak, John Rak, John Hode, Frank Bregar, Edward Podbevsek and Sam Reven have been placed on the reservation list. If we can get all of the bowlers signed up in advance, we will be able to start the new season in September as we never have before. So, tet's go, boys, and sign up right away. Send your name in to the Pioneer secretary, to Frank Groser or Josephine Mersol.—To keep in trim for the next season, Mitzi Crernich is rolling in the summer league at the Cascade Alleys. • • • We have added Joseph Ambrose Sr./1816 S. 56th Ct., Cicero, Anne Beniger, Billings Memorial Host)., and Andrew Misko. 2427 S. Hamlin ave., to the sick list. The list includes Louis Kramer, Angela Kal-usha, Rosemary Zbasnik, Ann Taut, Frances Hunter, Clara Bakule, Fred Gricnik, Johanna Klancnik and Matt Videgar. We hope our members will get around to visit them —C ongressman Sabath reports that he had contacted Secretary of State Marshall on May 6. protesting against the executions of so many political prisoners in Greece. To quote a part of his letter will give some idea of his attitude about this matter. Here is just one sentence: "I feel it manifestly inhuman to so ruthlessly execute so many of these people, especially in view of the fact that they actually fought with us and against Nazism." We hope more of you will write letters to the Congressmen and the President against the treachery of those who now run Greece. • • • That brings us down to the Mundt bill which was passed by the House of Representatives last week. The Pioneers went on record to write their Senators and urge them to vote against this bill, because this bill will enable the Fascists in this country to put a straightjacket on democracy. Let's hope that more of you will write to your Senators and to the President. It is pitiful that our country has to fear the things this bill provides against. It has been said so often that good wages, security, freedom and a good living are the best bulwarks against cum-munism. The only way communism can thrive Is, if we deprive the people of all the good things to which they are entitled under a good democracy. We are glad that the SNPJ-executive committee saw fit to ••n-list the help of the lodges to combat the evil forces which want to turn this country over to the Fascists. There is a real danger that this will happen unless the people are aroused against it. • • • You hear so much about what the Russians are doing to their "satel-ites" and so little of the truth of what, is really happening, that it Is surprising to read in the Wall Street Journal a report' that Poland is emerging as East Europe's economic fortress More important the Czechs and Poles who are traditionally unfriendly are cooperating to build up the industry. The account, indeed shows moee than one would dare expect They are mining more coal and Industrializing theft countries and shipping thetr goods to their neighbors and to Russia Of course the Western Powers don't like this. That may be one more reason why America is hell bent on arming so fast and becoming so powerful with first convention of the new party at Chicago, in April, to meet problems of nationality groups One thing is teitain his message will not bring campaign promises of the tradition al election year variety, for very little of the hew party's campaign conforms to the established, aging practices of American politics Singers from Jadran, Slovan and : Zarja wdl make their own dialinc live, melodic contribution to the program with the music we all love Music will ring out in the amw-x tan, for dancing and singing afut the program Dinner and refresh ment« will he served and ih« camaraderie, as always, will give the evening s hotkey ending VTDA SHIfFRER I weapons of destruction. The bad thing about the industrialization of East Europe is that they are doing it without the help of America and her money. Of course, it is good for the home countries. They barter and exchange goods and thus avoid the transfer of currency. No, nit everything is the way we are told by our press and radio, in East Europe. They are picking themselves up by their boot straps and working furiously to ngbuild the devastation and torture of the lfet war. These countries will definitely pose a problem to Western Europe. Without any Marshall plan, they went to work and are sacrificing much to gain their independence from capitalism. f One hundred years of Associated Press i was triumjkiantly blazoned over the radio last Sunday. Editors picked out the 10 outstanding news accounts oijhe century. And whet were theyT Wars, bloodshed, destruction with attendant agony for the common people. What a shame and a pity that gobd people have to endure such terrible man made horrors. And you give thought to the blessings we could have if properly organized. Indeed, this is a Christian era of bad things, getting worse and more horrid all the time, What folly to £ray for peace and then tat the heads of the governments dash as to war. The dramatization of the ten biggest news stories last Sun-lay made every thinking man an itheist. Yankovic to Play for Trojan Dance JOHNSTOWN, Pa.—Time will allow qpe only this last final reminder to come to the Trojan dan^e, and polka and waltz to the musia of Frangie Yankovic and hia Yanks The date is the second of June and the place is the spacious and beautiful .Westmont Grove Ballroom. Dancing will start at 8 p. m. so that those who must use public transportation will have time to catch that last bus or streetcar, without noissirtg any of the dancing. Remember June 2, at 8 p. m. at the Westmont Grove. Last week we held our first meeting at the nfw time, namely, tho second Friday of the month. Since both the president and vice president were absent, Larry Langerholc presided and did a good job. It was decided at this meeting to enter a team in the Conemaugh Valley Softball IeagGo of SNPJ Lodges./ As far as I could gather, Larry Langerholc will again hold the reins, and even if they are not a winning team they sure are a group of good sports—that much they did prove last year—and I'm pure that they will always strive for the highest standards of sportsmanship. We have on the sick lilt Theresa Sgontz, Verne Allcndorfer and Stella De Polo. On behalf of the membership I wish you all a very speedy recovery. At this time I wish to extend to Bob Swartey and his wife, our deepest and very sincere sympathies on the recent death of their infant daughter. Bob Is an active member of lodge Trtglav. Two juvenile and three adult members were proposed at our May meeting. Keep up the good work, members, and surpass that goal of fifteen by a great margin All the Trojan members wish to join me in congratulating the Tri-flav bowling team in winning the Conemaugh Valley SNPJ tenpin league trophy. It sure is a beauty, and is on display in the Moxhan Slovene Hall.

John and Ann Gelles, our members for many years, plan to open their new bowling slleys this August The alleys are In Geistown, and they will have twelve new lanes at our disposal. Congratulations. John and Ann. You have undertaken quite a big job and again the members join me in wishing you the greatest success in your new location. W<- are trying to work up enough Interest to have a mixed tenpin league consisting of bawlst* from the Trojan and Trlglav lodges. This arrangement had proved loads of fun in the Trojan inter lodge league, and should be even more so with t'. e keen competition now es istlng between these two branches. Work on this, lads and lassiei, and come next fall, we should have at least fifty bowlers representing the SNPJ at the chosen lanes Now may 1 remind the fans of Stan Kobel and his Airliners that his records are released and'on sale at the Page Electric Center and the Moxham Slovene Mall.

As man multiplies the population, he decreases his means of subsistence. The third economic force upon which I wish to comment is the transformstion of s use economy into s commodity economy, with the immense growth of over-heaA which this change involves. The hunter, the herdsman snd the fsrmer craftsman feeds, clothes and shelters himself. His labor, for exsmple, on the lsnd, produces the goods and services which he, his family and his/ village require for «urvivel. Pastoral people« following their herds, snd fsrmers tilling the «oil, live» bslsnced, stable lives. Unless nsture fslls them, or unless they are' robbed by «oldier«, brigand« or tax collector«, their economic solvency can be maintained indefinitely. Not. so commodity economy, which is opersted for profit rsther thsn for use. A commodity economy 1« fundamentally unatsbls. It« booms snd busts sre the. inevitsble result of profit sccumulstion. As commodity economy hss replsced use economy, the world hss moVed from s rslstivsly «table or static economy into the modern period of economic uncertainty snd interna-tional highjacking. Yes, I know sbout the fsbulous wealth of ths economic overlord«, and the expansion of the comfort-able middle clssse«, and the gadgets made available to the workers who man the ma«« production nriachines. I al«o know that this wealth, comfort and convenience wss derived from s ruthless squandering of nstursl resources snd s ferolious exploitation of slum-dwelling industrial populations and colonial million«; snd was burned up in the wsr« wsged between groups of rivsl overlords. Anyone who wsnta s concrete exsmple of the economic instsbility of s competitive commodity economy «hould visit the We«t European center where modern commodity production hsd its rise snd esrly development, and which only forty brief yesr« ago wa« (to quote President Truman and the N AM.) "enjoying the highest itsndard of living on earth." s Urbanization Is a fourth fores making for ecunoinic instability. Populations moved from villsgss into cities. In the village they were people. In the city they became numbers. Use economy is fundamentally satisfying. The producer uses hi« product. Commodity economy is essentislly bsffling snd frus-trsting. Man, the rcssoner, the mots! agent, become« a little cog in a big machine. He ceaie« to be an individual and become« a unit of and in the mass. Urbsnites csnnot feed, clothe snd house themselves. They cannot even provide themselves with water, The slightest dislocation throw« thsm into turmoil and psnic. Furthermore, lite urbsn center Is economically psrssitic — «pending more than it produce« and supporting itself by taxing the countryside. v As western man has moved Into the gadget-<*juipped cave dwelling« of the present period, he has not only lobbed himself of the possibility of self spport and built up ovcrluad coats that far exceeded his utmost in productivity, but he has provided his "enemies" (thoae who occupy neighboring rsve dwell« ing») with an Ideal, concontrStcd target for the (error weapons planned in his urban unlvsrsitis« and niutiuf.itluted in hi« urban Is-horalories, and machine ahopa.

They ought to surrender their citizenship or have it taken awsy from them.' Those are strong words, .but Senator Lsnger (Rep., N. D.) hsd been listening to a «hocking report by Senator Owen Brewster, chairman of a committe which investigated strange deals between big American oil companies and the United States government. Parts of this story have been told previously in LABOR. Brewster now told it all, and in detail. Arab King Demanded Money Shortly before the wai, Brewster said, two oil corporations—Standard of California and the Texas Company—formed a subsidiary, the Dhahrsn, who came to the State Department." While there on Uncle Sam's payroll, he continued to draw his $27,500 a year "from the very oil company" which was obtaining these expensive favors. Another example was James T. Duce, now president of Aramco. He was "in the Oil Administration," under Harold L. Ickes, while Aramco was negotiating for the hand-outs from Uncle Sam. "In my judgment," Brewster declared, "that is an amazing picturc of corporate greed when our coun- Arabian - American Company, or f try was in its most bitter need. The "Aramco," to exploit vast oil-land oil corporations forgot their pro-concessions obtained from Ibn Saud, mise to Uncle Sam that, 'if you will world-wise ' ktl By ISRAEL EPSTEIN—Allied Labor Hews King of Saudi Arabis.

See. of State George C. Marshall first declared that talks were,unthinkable outside the United Nations. But his own department's. long-standing excuse for the Msrsnall plan and Truman doctrine, which involve all UN members one wgy oi another, was that the world organization is too weak to handle such affairs. Beside«, the UN Charter, Xriifcle 33, specifically indorses face-to-face talks between two quarreling powers. It says: "Parties to any dispute which threaten« «trife or endanger« the peace of the world shsll first of all seek volution by negotiations " This is it. Msrshsll buicI .further thst the U.

These «ame governments broke out In goose-pimples after the original notes were published because Washington sent its note without telling them. The Pans paper L'Epoque said flatly: "The U.S. ha« entered into negotiations without consulting us." Then Henry A. Wallace picked up the ball.

Aramco made that $117 million profit on an investmnet of only $1 million. Last year, a 40 per cents interest in Aramco was sold for $102 million, to two more Amtrican oil corporations—Standard of New Jersey snd Socony Vacuum. 'Two dsys later," Brewster recalled, "the Truman doctrine was announced concerning Greece and Turkey, indicating th«t we were moving into the Middle East in a big way." Defense Secretary Jame« Forrcstal announced recently that, despite the severe steel shortage in this country, Uncle Sam's militsry chiefs have recommended export of 55,000 tons of steel for an of pipe line across Arabia. v Brewster cited expert opinion that oil resource« in the Middle East could not be successfully defended, even at the cost of American boys' lives, in case of a war with Russia, which is next door to the Arabian field*. "Oil Myttery Man" Vast profits for American and British oil companies are at stake, however. These profit« are estimated as high as $100 billion, an almost unimaginable sum. A suggestion of their size was given the other day in the story of an "interview" with Calouste S. Gulbenkian, Armenian "oil my»tery man" now living in Portugal. Year« ago, the story ssid, Gulbenkian "wangled an oil concession in Iraq for British-Dutch-German interests," and in return was given a 5 per cent share of the concession. Thst opened the door to the Armenian for other oil deals in thc same area. Now Gulbenkian is said to have an $800 million fortune snd an "oil royalty income" of 1.2 million a year.—(Labor) i Soviets Boost Earnings, Provide Homes For Coal Miners MOSCOW—(ALN) — Average earnings of cosl miners, already among the highest in sny brsnch of Industry in the Soviet Union, have 1 been, further boosted by recent government sction, sccordin to P, Potapov, Russian writer on labor problems. The sversge basic wage for miners is now 2,750 rubles ($550 at thc official rate) per month. Earnings are further augmented by bonuses for length of service and exceeding piecework quotas. Men employed tn a given mine for over a year get an annual bonus equal to 10% of the year's wages. Those who work three to five yesrs get 15%, from five to 10. years 20%, and over 15 yesrs 30% annually. Vacstions are fully paid. Old-age pensions at half the annual wage are paid each year to men over 50 who have worked in the industry for 20 years or more. Homes are now being «old to miner« st very low rates by the government mine administration. Potspov visited miners st Yssnsya Polyana who bought such homes for $.000 rubles (equal to leas than four month's average wages) payable over 10 yesrs.
