Lawndalo Ave« Chicago 29. Illinois Lewis se izmotal iz klešč Ko se je zadnjo soboto popoldne po radiu raznesla vest, da je John L. Lewis preklical stavko in pozval 400,000 članov UMW na mehkem premogovnem polju, naj se vrnejo na delo, se je de žela globoko oddahnila. Izginilu je velika mora, ki je tlačila deželo in obetala nič kaj vesele božične praznike, ako bi se bila stavka vlekla do tedaj ali še dalj. Božič v sredi stavke bi bil pust in prazen in lahko mrzel tudi v premogarskih revirjih, ne samo po mestih. Yes, toliko je dežela odvisna od premoga. Preklic stavke je Lewis insccnlral na svoj dramatični način. V dramatiki je on sploh največji mojster, brez para. Pred časnikarsko konferenco, katero je zadnjo popoldne naglo sklical skupaj, ni nihče nič slutil, kaj namerava. Novinarji so spoznali, da se pripravlja nekaj senzacijskega šele tedaj, ko so prišli v razsvetljeno konferenčno dvorano glavnega stana UMW v Washingtonu; toda kaj ima Lewis v rokavu, se nikomur ni niti sanjalo. Lewis se očividno ni posvetoval niti s svojimi odvetniki, marveč je vso stvar sam insceniral. Da-li se je posvetoval s kakim drugim glavnim ali izvršnim odbornikom unije, je tajnost, toda soditi po njegovih uvodnih besedah, ko je časnikarjem dejal, da je "to moje lastno delo" — poziv rudarjem, naj se vrnejo na delo ni niti tega storil. Njegov preklic stavke in poziv majnarjem se tudi čita kot pravi ukas — spisan v pravem diktatorskem tonu. Če je kaj repulsivnega ali odvratnega v tem Lewisovem pismu majnarjem, je njegov ton. Čisto vojaška komanda. ^ Toda neglede, kako se ton tega pisma upira demokratično usmerjenemu človeku, je Lewis vseeno storil mojstersko potezo, ko je napravil ta umik in preklical stavko. Iz mlakuže in velikega precepa se je imet\|tno rešil, kakor tudi unijo. Kako so majnarji reagirali na ta njegov ukaz in potezo, nam ni znano, toda lahko imajo, to zadoščenje, da je UMW izšla iz tega težkega položaja solidna kot je bila pred stavko, na katero se je Lewis tako nepremišljeno podal. ★ • Na ta korak, ki pomeni popolno kapitulacijo, sc je Lewis napotil iz več razlogov. Glavni vzrok je vsekakor ta, da je še pravočasno spoznal resnost situacije za unijo. Ako bi se bili majnarji pričeli vračati na delo na pritisk vlade in javnega mnenja brez formalnega preklica stavke, to je brez Lewisovega poziva, bi bila s tem unija zelo zrahljana in tudi njegova (Lewisova) moč in avtoriteta. To bi pomenilo, da bi bilo njegovo stališče pri pogajanjih za novo pogodbo zelo omajano, kar bi bilo slabo za majnarje in unijo. Zdaj Lewis lahko še vedno reče, da ima majnarje solidno na svoji strani. Ta argument bo pri pogajanjih, bodisi z vlado ali operutorji, močnejši kot vsi drugi argumenti. Drugi vzrok, da se je Lewis tako naglo odločil za preklic stavke, je iskati tudi v tem, ker se je proti koncu zadnjega tedna Truman odločil, da bo nastopil proti njemu po rudiu in apeliral na majnarje, naj se vrnejo na delo. O Trumunu človek lahko misli, kar hoče — da je politično In mentalno veliko premajhen za predsedniške škornje, da je le orodje drugih, du ne ve kaj dela (slučaj Wallaca-Byrnesa) itd. itd. — dejstvo ostane, da je predsednik najmogočnejše dežele in da je sposoben udariti z veliko gorjačo tudi po delavstvu in nahujskati deželo, posebno pa kongres proti unijam. To je pokazal posebno v železnlčarski stavki. (Pisatelj Ixrnis Adamič pravi o njem v zadnji izdaji svoje revije T & T (Trends & Tides) — "da je nevaren . . .") V svojem napovedanem govoru po radiu bi bil Lewisa lahko zribul do kosti in javni sentiment popolnoma zastrupil proti IJMW. Lewis bi bil popolnoma slep, ako bi to ristkiral; zato je tudi ntffclo preklical stavko in s tem preprečil Trumanov govor. V zvezi s tem lahko rečemo to, da se je najbr/e tudi Truman globoko oddahnil in bo zdaj lažje še nadalje nastopal kot "prijatelj delavstva .. ." * Lewis v svojem pismu majnarjem omenja tudi vrhovno sodišče -- da prek licu je stavko zato, da bo s<»dlšče lahko podalo svoj od-klok brez kakšnega zunanjega pritiska, kakor tudi vsled tega, ker dežela potrebuje mastne produkcije premoga v tem času. Govorice hO tudi, du je Lewis v soboto zjutraj tudi dobil namig od načelnik a vrhovnega sodišča Vinsonu, naj prekliče stavko. Koliko je resnice na tem. je »evedo tajnoat. Znano je tudi, da so se vsi visoki privatni In vladni krogi ukvarjali z načrtom za razcepitev mujnarjev — a sklenitvijo separat-nih začasnih dogovorov za vrnitev na delo preko l^ewisove k lave kar bi b.lo usodno za UMW in rudarje. Do tegu bi tudi prišlo prej ali slej. ako bi Lewia vztrajal pri stavki. Do tega bi privedle (»količine, ki so močnejše od posameznika ali organizacije. Trumnn bi s svojim prestižem mini majnarji najbrže dosti ali sploh nič n<» dosegel, še m.jmanj pa, če bi j,m grozil z bajoneti, na kar so ščuva i vlado nekateri bigotni kongresniki in senatorji, ki hočejo iz delavcev napraviti brezpravne sužnje. * Vsa ta dejstva so vplivala na I.ewisa, da je nenadoma preklical stavko, ni, katero se je bil podal tako lahkomiselno.

Naj prvQ_pozivam vse članstvo na letno sejo, ki se bo vršila v petek, 13. decembra, začetek ob pol osmih zvečer v spodnji dvorani SNPJ. Asesment bom pričel pobirati že ob pol sedmih. Po seji bomo imeli malo okrepčila. Prejeli boste tudi lepe stenske koledarje SNPJ. Naj tej seji bomo poleg drugega razpravljali tudi o plesni veselici, ki se bo vršila na pustno soboto, 15. februarja. Lansko leto smo imeli sijajno udeležbo na isti dan in če se bomo malo potrudili ter izkazali društveno lojalnost, potem bomo uspeli tudi lotos. Vstopnice so že tiskane, knkor tudi naročena godba. Igral bo naš mladi član Eddy Udovich in njegovi godbeniki. Naznanjam tudi, da bomo na januarski seji predvajali filme o zadnji konvenciji SNPJ. Do sedaj nisem članstvo opozarjal glede plačitve asesmenta, v mesecu decembru pa le glejte, da poravnate svoje obveznosti. Milan Medvešek. tajnik. NA ZNANJE ČLANSTVU DRUŠTVA 124 SNPJ Forest City. Pa.—Odgovor in nekoliko pojasnila na obvestilo in vabilo, katerega je dal v javnost brat tajnik Louis Sasso dne 13. nov,, to je bilo ravno pred sejo. Izčrpek se glasi: "Na tej soji boste slišali, kdo dela razdor pri društvu, da člani prestopaj< k drugim društvom." Glede onih članov, kateri prestopajo k drugim društvom, bi bilo bolj pametno in koristno, da bi tajnik Louis Sasso poročal na društveni seji s polnimi imeni kdo so in kam prestopajo. Nam, članstvu tega društva, ni dovolj znano o tem, ker na seji nt pravega poročila. Tudi jaz bi rad vedel za omenjene člane, da jih zapišem v društveni zapisnik, ker je to moja dolžnost do časa. dokler imam ta urad. Naše društvo ima avojo dvorano in dovolj proatora in časa na razpolago, ako je treba da se rešijo razne stvari in problemi. Zato so seje. da se prinese pred članstvom stvari in se lih reši kjer ie proator zato, ne pa po drugih domovih in kotih, da ae potem raztresa po cestah na ve •elje onih, kateri so proti naši organizaciji. Glede razdora pri našem društvu je dovolj jasno, kje je bila napaka in zakaj. Naše društvo ima svojo veliko zgodovino za seboj, toda do razdora v 36 letih še ni prišlo. Imamo tu še Živeče člane, kateri so ustanovitelji in ponosni na svoje društvo! Zakaj bi pa ne bi bili? Toda nezadovoljstvo je pa, ker se ne deluje po bratsko, kot bi se moralo, in zato je prišlo do nesoglasja. Moja navada ni objavljati v javnosti razmer društva. Ako bi se stvari vršile po sklepu dru-( štva in pravilih, bi ne bilo treba tega vznemirjanja in sovraštva med članstvom. Pripetilo se je že velikokrat, da je prišlo do nesoglasja med članstvom, a se je poravnalo. Tudi to pot bi se lahko poravnalo, ko je bil čas zato in stvar bi bila rešena, ter obenem pozabljena. Obžalujem, ker se brat Sasso ni mogel omehčati. Da bi preprečili razdor, mu je društvo da-| lo nezaupnico na seji dne 15. sept, in na njegovo mesto izvolilo drugega. Dne 17. nov. ga je članstvo spoznalo za krivega nekaterih točk in členov naše organizacije in sklepov društva, pa vseeno nadaljuje s tajniškim poslom naprej. Ker je prihodna seja letna in ima društvo obilo rešiti in obenem volitev odbora za leto 1947, so vabljeni vsi člani in članice, da se odzovejo na vabilo. Da nas ne'bodo zopet podili druga društva iz dvorane, se bo po priporočilu predsednika seja pričela ob 0. uri zjutraj namesto ob 10. uri. Naprej za skupno delo in napredek društva!

O. — Podružnica 481 SANS-a za collinwoodsko okrožje bo vprizorila tridejansko komedijo "Trije vaški svetniki", in sicer v nedeljo, 15. dec. v Slovenskem delavskem domu na Waterloo rd. Začetek ob pol štirih popoldne. »,< Po igri se bo vršil ples, za katerega bo igrala Vadnalova godba. Pripravljena bo tudi okusna večerja in vsestransko dobra postrežba. Najeti sta obe dvorani. Zgoraj bo ples za mlade, spodaj pa za starejše ob domači godbi. Vstopnina k programu je 75c, ki je dobra tudi za ples (kdor bo ostal v dvorani). Ker je bila ta podružnica res aktivna od vsega začetka, je upanje, da bo naše občinstvo napolnilo obe dvorani, posebno še zato, ker je namenjen ves čisti preostanek za otroško bolnišnico v Sloveniji. Torej pridite! (Ostalo v dnevniku.—Ured.) Anion Jankovlch. PLESNA VESELICA NA STAREGA LETA VEČER Denver, Colo. — Dom slovenskih društev bo priredil 119 sta-; rega leta večer, 31. dec., plesno veselico.

Imeli smo določen društveni banket na dan 2. novembra, toda radi sneženih žametov nismo mogli iz hiše in zato bili primo-rani preložiti bfcnket na 9. nov.

FEBRUARJA Chicago. 111.—Radi vojnih.razmer je društvo Nada 102 SNPJ opustilo svoje priredbe. Na zadnji seji smo pa sklenile in se odločile za pred pustno veselico, katera se bo vršila v soboto, 8. feb., v dvorani SNPJ. Vsi, ki ste posečali Nadine zabave, veste, da so bile vedno prvovrstne. Članice bodo pokrbele, da se boste vsi prav dobro zabavali. Imele bomo izvrstno godbo in tudi plesalk ne bo manjkalo. Zato že danes opozarjamo članstvo SNPJ in prijatelje, da si rezervirate ta večer za Nadino plesno veselico. Ob tej priliki apeliram na članice. da se gotovo udeldže letne seje, ki se bo vršila v četrtek, 19. dec. Seja bo važna, ker i-mamo poleg volitev odbora in raznih poročil tudi urediti načrte za našo bodoče aktivnosti. Prosim pridite točno, ker po seji bomo imele kot običajno božično zabavo m ismenjale božična darila; pripravljen bo tudi dober prigrizek. Mlnka Al ash, tajnica. Člani, udeležite te letne seje svojega društva I premogovne induatrije v interesu javnosti. To je faktično tudi edina pametna solucija za premogovno in sploh vse glavno in-dustr ' da vsako oprostil. V SS Turn Halli bo cela reč, to veste. Dan je 15. decembra in pričelo se bo ob štirih popoldne, to tudi veste. Skrivnost, katero smo držali do zadnjega, pa je, da nas bo z lepo slovensko pesmijo počastil ženski pevski zbor Slovensko-ameriškega združenja iz Sheboygana. Ta-le dekleta so nam Milwaučanom že parkrat lepo zapela in vsi smo bili zadovoljni z njih petjem. Prepričani smo, da se bodo tudi v nedeljo imenitno postavile, kakor so se še vselej, kadar so bile pri nas. Za ples bo igrala Bašljeva godba. Louis Bašelj je prisegel pri Mohamedovi bradi, da bo za Naprejev ples, ki bo po programu, igral takšne komade, da bodo podžgali pete tudi tistim, ki po* težkem dnevnem delu mislijo, da so prestari za ples. Se to! Za jutršnjo izdajo Pro-svete je Naprejev tajnik napisal po svoje par podatkov iz zgodovine Napreja. Prečitajte jih, če imate čaa—in pa na veselo svidenje v nedeljo ob štirih popoldne! Milwauild Naprej.

Pa. — On Sunday, Dec. 1st, the Piorteers held their annual meeting at the SNPJ Hall. Election of officers and committees for 1947 was the main business conducted during the two and one-half hour meeting. Attendance at the meeting was fine in comparison with other meetings of the past years, with nearly one hundred members present. Three new juveniles were proposed for membership: Pamela Ann Podboy, Jo Lynn Sedmak and Thomas John Chesnic. The financial report given by our treasurer showed Lodge 58t to be doing very well as far as finances are concerned. In the election of officers and committees for 1947, the following members will guide 589 during the next year. Elected to the presidency. a post he has held in the past, was Frank Tomsic. one of 589's hardest workers. Filling the post of vice-president is John Poop, serving his first year as an officer of 589. Re-elected to the post of secretary, which she held for quite a number of years, was Frances Pod-boy. Frank Kaminski was reelected for the second consecutive year to the office of treasurer. The rec. ording secretary is Mrs. Agnes Curtis. while the new office of Director of Juvenile Activities will be held by mrs. Mary Chesnic and Mrs. A1 bina Yarkosky is Juvenile Circle Managers. Mrs. Chesnic and Mrs Yarkosky were Circle advisers for the past few years. The auditing committee will be composed of Mrs Mary Chesnic, Mrs. Agnes Curtis and Mrs. Mildred Podboy Jr., all being re-elected. August Podboy is to hold down the job of publicity Elected to the House Committee to serve with the officers of No. 589 were James Tomsic, William Tom sic and Frank Podboy. To look in to certain business affairs, were John Podboy Jr.. John Tershel Jr and August H. Riska. These three members in addition to the officers will work on certain business problems of No. 589. As our representative at the Slovenian Savings and Loan Ass'n annual meeting James Tomsic was chosen. Dr. Ca razola and Dr. Jas. Wilson were elected as lodge doctors. The door Vrlse wag won by Bertha Koklich The officers of 589 were pleasantly surprised at the fine attendance at the yearly meeting and hope that such an attendance could be had at each meeting of 1947. During the war years and rince the end of the war, activity among its members hit a low period, lowest since 589's beginning twenty years ago. But lately, there have been signs of renewed activity again which we hope will surpass that of the years preceding the war. Such activity can only be had if the lodge members so desire and actively participate in all lodge affairs. That is why we urge all members to attend the meetings and affairs. A LODGE IS ONLY AS ACTIVE AS ITS MEM-BERS We know that there are many of our members who have good ideas for the creation of activities and husband Bob. together with others, for their good wishes in our new business venture.

ILL.—-In a return bowling engagement last Sunday the Badger« of Milwaukee trimmed all thru« Pioneer teams, two men'f and one women'«. One of the »quads in particular had an extremeJy close contest, trimming the Pioneers by only nineteen pins, while the first team and the girls lost by larger acores. The game« were rolled in Rcmic's Alleys in Milwaukee. Sev-eral Pioneers went up (or the 20tb anniversary dance of. the Badgers and stayed overnight to join in the rooting for their teams. The Badgers were home on these alleys. Matt Graff and A1 Jeray shot a 603 scries each. Kriscoycc rolled 575 and Spruck 573. Brondel got $30 and the other Badgers rolled as follows: Lochner 478. J. Sedmak 434, Slim Sedmak 406, R. Simon 434 and Tony Obluck 463. Don Lotnch led the Pioneer squad« with a 569. Matt Brinovec brought in his usual good series of 548, and the rest came through with the following scores: Pirman 462, A1 Ormaniec 469, Ja-chino 464, Zcfran 487, Frank Lot-rich 448, Ed Mijalski 449. Chester Ziarko 439. and John Petra* 475 Sophie Svoboda did best for the Pioneer girls with a 4$9 scries, while Clara Medved rolled a beautiful 527 for the Badger girls. Because the pioneers won the first set of gamej and the Badgers the second set, 1 was decided to meet again sometime in January, perhaps in Wau-kegan. 0 0 0 John Zordani and Antonia Cekada have been added to the aiok list.

Eva Kovach was reported well.—A card from Durant, Mississippi, tells us that Fred Bennett is taking in the jights in the South.—The current iasue of TStT, published by Bro. Louis Adamic, take« President Harry Truman to task severely. Adamic accuses him of trying to be all things to all men and calls him down for his outright falsehoods. In this way the country is bound to go to the dogs because its chief doesn't know what he wants or where he wants to go. The result is that pressure group« and cheap politicians are directing the ways of the Federal government Brother Adamic tries to compare what would have been done had Franklin D. Roosevelt itlll lived. He predicts that the next two years wll be bad years because of the poor judgement of the high dffic»als. • • $ • We heard Dr. Gerhard Schacher, radio commentator and foreign newspaper correspondent, lecture at the Toman Library last Friday night. His topic was "Chances for a Lasting Peace," and he explained that the longer we can stall off the present trends from materializing, that much better a chance we have of making peace last. The surprising thing, however, he pointed out, was the fact that America is really the only capitalist country today, Most of Europe has gone leftist. England has a labor government which in semblance is socialistic, iiouth American countries have varied shades of radical governments. China ia in its civil war and India ia about to go through that strife. Yes, he pointed out that tiie Americana with their economic system of private enterprise are isolated. It must fight for its extension and thut may be the reason for the present maneuvers of the Byrnes type. Mr. Schacher was the i nly commentator who knew the situation well enough during the crucial months of i 1141 and 1942 to have courage enough and predict that I he Huasians would stop Hitler'* hoariles. In those days of trial when everybody figured that the Russians would cellayae, he called it a strait gic withdrawal The lecture waa well attended • • • Only a few people are aware of what happened in England wh«m aome of the Labor members of the Kovernment rebelled aguinst the present foreign policy.

All proceeds, resulting frqm this social function, will be ufeed to further sup- Sort and promote inter-lodge reqrea-onal and spo^t activities.

The current T&T, sent to lodges from the Main Office, is full of thought provoking information deal-inc with several burning problems. Our readers will find plenty to think about and it is hoped, to do something about it also. . Tht leading article in the 16-page magazine deals with "The Little Man In the White House" and tells the nside story of what is going on behind the scenes in Washington. The subtitles deal with such questions as "The Lie Astride the Land,'; •The Vast Russo-American Distortion." "The Lie in Congress," "The Lie and Jugoslavia," etc. The expose runs through the first nine pages, or more than half of the magazine. Subscription to T&T is $1 a year. Address: Louis Adamie, Milford. N. J. "IT'S TRUMAN'S move no>v in the coal dispute," writes Kenesaw M. Landis in the Chicago Sun, by prefacing his column with this fit- tin« verse: For he who fights and runs away May liee to fight another day; But he who is in bottle slain Can never rise to figprtfaaifi. "Such, we may/dresume, were the sentiments of J^n* L. Lewis when he called off thi ci^lsjgike shortly after his attorneys had emerged from a conference^«*« Chief Justice Vinson," states Landis. There can be no question but that Lewis made his retreat in good order, just as the Russians were retreating before the Germans tactfully for a long time—until they were ready to strike back at the proper time. Such is the strategy and taetics of war, be that war industrial or territorial. Whether Lewis, in retreating from his "frontal assault" has achieved a tactful success, it is hard to say, but it is certain that his move was wise. TWICE THIS YEAR the miners have demonstrated their Importance to the nation as a whole. Their importance to our economy-is so great that they can paralyze the entire industrial and transportation tr acbinery when they strike, In view of this importance, aren't the miners entitled to a fair return for their hazardous work? Or should they be forced to per-from their all-important work under deplorable conditions and at low pay? Landis correctly states that "unless the operators agree on a new contract with the miners. President Truman must reopen the contract as Lewis demands. "All men have a right to battle for their rights if they are denied a forum in which to be heard. It is Truman's move to provide that forum if he wishes to prevent future emergencies." Let's hope that during the present armistice the miners will succeed 'n Raining what they are entitled to.

Scot Nearing's articles are very enligtening and I hope they will continue to be published. Our thoughts are along the lines of Michael Vrhovnik on his Thanksgiving Day Thoughts. Price control has collapsed. But consumers must and can continue to fight against inflation with courage and tenacity. They must have courage to keep fighting against what looks like hopeless odds. And they must be tenacious in refusing to buy any-thin«j and everything that they can possibly do without. If consumer resistance mounts steadily, the back of the price inflation will be broken. Thoughtless consumers are their own worst enemy. Inflation is not only ravaging their country; it is striking directly at their own families. The pay-any-price consumer is hurting himself, his family and the' entire American people. That is why it is necessary for everyone to think before buying. Every decision to postpone, every decrease in effective demand is a blow against inflation. Obviously they cannot stop buying milk for their children. They must have some meat for their families; they have just got to eat. But they can make certain that not a scrap of food is wasted. They can boycott the worst proffering stores. They can use less inflationary substitutes. If consumers do all this, their action will have a tremendous impact on inflationary prices. Every consumer who gets out of the sucker claas is helping undermine the weakening foundation of the present Inflation. The less we buy the higher un-aold inventories will mount. By thinking before we buy, consumers can therefore speed up the day when prices will fall enough ao that p«>o-ple can afford to live decently again. If prices go worse than hog-wild, then the letdown is going to be extremely painful. But if consumers can shorten the time span of the inflationary spiral by refusing to buy except what thev actually need, they will help cushion the consequences of the coming depression. The decision therefore rests largely with consumers. They have the power to curb inflation, although it may take some time for the effect of not buying take hold. But every consumer who thinks before he buys, brings nearer the day when inventories will be dumped to beat a price debacle. One consumer can't do this by himself. But as more and more consumers begin fighting inflation, as they get their neighbors to do likewise, as they get, then organizations to develop buyers' itrikes so as to dramatize the need to beat back inflation, they will find that they will get results.

With that slogan as a keynote, the National Safety Council announced a nationwide campaign to check the huge annual Christmaa holiday toll. Statistics prove the Christmas-New Year's holiday season is the must hazardous single period of the year. More than three times as many deaths ocoui during the actual Christmas holidays than on the same days of the > k the remainder of the year, according to the council. The normal winter hazards, such as bad weather, slippery roads, and longer period of darkneaa, are increased by heavier travel and the festive spirit of the holiday season, The council campaign has been joined by molt than 130 national organizations, citv and atate public officiala and «|vic leaders. It seeks to create in 1he public mhul an awareneaa of the apecial holiday hazards, and to enlist voluntary co operation on the part of every In dividual to hold accidents to a minimum this Christmas. The council emphasized that the campaign is th< final effort of the year to bring the 1948 death toll down to the 1945 total of 28.800. Such deaths, which Increased alarmingly after V-J Dav brought an end to driving restrictions, were running 30 per cent over last year at the end of the first nine mosts of 1948. "Every thinking person realizes the importance of preventing accidents at this or any other time of the year," said Ned H. Dearborn, president of the council. "The deaths, injuries and financial loss due to preventable accidents are intolerable at any lime, but it seems to us that during the Christmas sen son everyone should be especially aware of what an acclderit In the family cun mean. "The Christmas seaaon is th<( fam ily season, the time of reunion, of Joy in one's children, of drawing even closer the moat fundamental ties in our nation. It la truly a time of happiness. "Yet the lighted windows of many homes this Christmas will be dimmed by the shadow of an acei dent, and many a festive fumily gathering will become an occasion of sadneaa. H can and it will hap pen all too often. But It need not happen! A little forethought, a Utile extra cars,(will give your family the best present t)f all—your pres ence." l( Main Meeting of Lodge 747 Dec. IB MILWAUKEE.

Campbell NEW YORK (CNS)—The Russian Council of Minister^ has decreed that producer and consumer cooper stives in the Soviet Union must be more active in competing with State atores and in raising the standard of living in the cities, according to an article in Pravda November 11. as reported by the New York Times and Associated Press. The Russisn Government finds that the State stores have acquired a monopolist position, with an unhealthy effect on prices and on the expansion of trade in agricultural products sod consumer goods. Coops .are criticised for failing to buy uo surplus agricultural products for urban distribution, but prior to November 11 they were not allowed to distribute in urban areas. Permission has been given for the organization of cooperatives in cit ies. workers' settlements and railway ststions snd ln ports, to trsde in s variety of food products at market prices. Producer co-ops ore urged to make more consumer goods for the population, snd for this purpose sre freed from the obligstion to accept orders from industry. Cer-tain tools, equipment and raw ma terialii not needed in Stste industry will be transferred to them. ' Along wjth the decreed expansion of cooperatives may come stronger controls. A chief administration for the affairs of producers' snd con sumers' cooperatives has been organized under the Council of1 Minis ters to help cooperative* development and te "strengthen State control" of cooperatives. ' y> So little information is available on Russian cooperatives that it is difficult to evaluate this news at a distance. In November 1935 ithe consumer cooperatives in the cities were dissolved, and their properties wsre taken over by the State. Cooperative activities were restricted to rursl areas. Up to the time of the closing of the urban co-oos. the Russisn central wholesale. MCentro-soyus," claimed 70.000.000 co-op members. Last month st Zurich, the Russisn delegates clsimed to represent 35.000.000. There wss much curiosity at the Zurich congreas of the Internstionsl Cooperative Alliance about the present conditions of Russian cooperatives. Russian delegates insisted that their co-ops follow the Rochdale principles and ar« Independent In every respect. Now Pravda't criticisms suggest that their independence leaves something to be desired bv western standards. Russian consumer cooperatives are not. from what we know, fme to go into production, and until the other da«' they were no! free to compete with State stores. The formation of an administrative branch to strengther State control over cooperatives doer not sound like a step toward greater freedom. The Russisn delegation went tr Zurich looking for as much power as they oould get In the International Cooperative Alliance. Claiming to represent 35.000.000 members they were entitled to ask for a good deal. As it happened, the rules of the Alliance provide that no country msy have more than 20 per cent of the voting power, and this is what Russia got. There was an effort ss In the United Nations, to vet sen arste renresentatio* for th* Ukraine Bvelo-Russia Latvia. Estonia and Lithuania; thereby 'Increasing thr Russian voting strength. This war defeated When it was shown that the cooperatives in these areas are not independent of each other. The Russians asked to have their lsh-gusge adopted as one of the official languages of the congress, and decision on this was deferred until the next congress in 1948. It would be interesting to soecu-1M- On the poMibilitv thst t^is decision of the Russian Government "'ss influenced In some Wav bv the Zurich congress and the evidence oresented there that cooperatives are a lively and salutary force under any type of economy, but th*rc is no ground for such speculatipn except that the Russian decree followed the ICA congreas by exactly one month.

By t. Christopherton The black market struggle between the vets vShe want to build houses and the "commercial interests who would use scarce building materials for racetracks, bowling alleys, theaters, and beer parlors iS in the open. Ceilings have been lifted from building materials. Priorities remain. but this doesn't mean that housing will spurt. Just the opposite. Commercial builders with larger stakes and bigger reserves will now openly freeze veterans out of the competition fer scarce building items like ^noMs. pipes, and plumbing. Estimates of the effect of this new blow to the housing, program indicate an increase of $2,000 on an average so-called veteran's dwelling. Costs of individual dwellings will raise to approximately $12,000. By the time anyone succeeds in paying for one of these houses that would cost $6,009 ft*(1939. he will truly qualify as e ufetesan. What happened to'SHulding? During the war we needed millions of new houses, barracks shelters, factories. hangars. We got them. Need took precedence over price, restriction. chaos. Millions of houses were built during a period when we also built an unprecedented number of factories: A national survey «iring»4he war showed clearly a need for fifteen million houses to meet the prewar need. The housing ' market was shown to be unlimited if houses were built to rent at . $30 s month and lowsr. * - Then the war ended. Chaos took over. The jokes about the Vets Housing Program, oopuiar subject for irony, are too tree. It's been commercial three to one.

Hofses The same people who voted themselves out of the Democ f frying pan and into the Republican fire last month now are erinl'' ing about the prospect of a coal strike that may kill their i, h freeze their families and almost certainly will boost their coal bili to a new all-time high. They are the same kind of people who did the gripeing back in the late 20's and early 30's when a strike of the owning class barred millions of Americans from using the tools of production and created a breadline economy. They are also the same people who went along with the capitalist system all down through its sorry course and who complained bitterly about the shortages, exploitation and profits without which the private-profit economy for which they voted simply could not function. If the American people continue to act as they have in the past, some future day will find them fretting against—and still voting for—the safhe kind of controls that they described as "fascism" in other countries when the continuation of a class society made it necessary for a super-government to take over and apply the pressure that would keep workers producing the necessities of life under conditions that will assure a rake-off fqr owners. About the Least inspiring sight we can imagine is that of 140 million people pitying themselves because of what a few people are doing to them. The working people of this nation—or any nation for that matter —could enjoy the utmost good that their combined ability could create —if they'd use their combined pow-ir to tnat end. They wouldn't need to impoverish themselves in a fruitless struggle for just a little more. They could have all the coal they mine, all the oil they tap from the. earth, all the clothing they make, all the comfortable homes they could build —if they'd own the sources of wealth and produce abundance for use instead of scarcity for private profit. ■ The working people of the world ore powerful. They could have all they make if they wouldn't vote to themselves week by permitting the means of life to be owned by a few people. And. surely, nobody, not evep workers, have a right to ask for more than they make. What workers need to understand is that the things they are complaining about are necessary to the economic system that they vote to preserve. P The owners aren't to blame. They are playing according to the rules of the game that workers approve with their votes. / It is the gsme of PRIVATE enterprise, through PRIVATE investments, for PRIVATE profits. One hundred forty million peoole oughtn't let things like fuel.^pon which they utterly depend, remam private possessions. Coal should be socialized. So should all other basic neeos. They oughtn't await the willing ness of a few people to invest pri-vate money before producing and using what they need. They didn't do that during the war. Then the people's money was used to finance the job at hand. The people's mo-ney—or rather the people's labor-could do just as hig a job for human welfare in time of peace—if the people owned the capital wealth of the nation. But if the people do let a few individuals own the thing that everybody needs ... and if they do insist that private individuals should invest their own cash and credit . . and if they vote for laws that are needed to make such an arrange, ment. work, and elect lawmakers who believe in that way of doing things- Then the people have no reasonable right to expect that the owners and inverstors are going to permit the use of THEIR capital under any terms that do not permit them to rule THEIR property and make profit from the labor of THEIR employees. Of course, it is possible to point to many evils and abuses that result' from the private-profit arrangement whereby our economy is conducted. But the sensible and effective thing would be to stop squawking about results and start doin* something about causes. Somebody has to own and manage the great industrial and commercial giant that we call America. If the workers, acting together and voting together, decide that they won't do the job for their own welfare, then it's up to those who always.have been doing the owning and investing and ruling and profiteering to keep right on doing it for THEIR profit. , That's capitalism. Capitalism i« functioning in the only way it can function—by exploiting workers for the benefit of owners. And if we vote for such a system, should we be surprised if the lawmakers who belt*v% in it fasten legal claims upon workers when that is necessary to make the system work?
