Waaklngton. D. C.. 21. okt.— Voditelji farmarjev iz 37 držav na konferenci, ki se je pričela v tem mestu, so sprejeli resolucije s pozivom na kongres, naj ga-v rantira farmarjem višje cene za 'pridelke, kot zdaj prevladujejo na tržiščih.
Načrti, predloženi kongresu, da se postavi strop in "zamrznejo" cene pridelkom, so bili kritizirani po voditeljih farmarskih organizacij, kakor tudi po članih kongresa, ki so prišli na konferenco. Skoro vsi govorniki so pobijali trditve nekaterih ekonomov in vladnih uradnikov, da porast cen pridelkov vodi v inflacijo.
Med drugimi so govorili senatorji John H. Bankhead, EUlson D. Smith in George D. Aiken. Vsi so naglašali, da farmarji niso deležni koristi od prosperite-te, ki je prišla s trošenjem milijard dolarjev za oboroževanje, čeprav so cene pridelkom 30 odstotkov višjo zdaj v primeri s cenami preteklega leta.
' .T i •
"Nobena nevarnosti glede inflacije cen., ne bo, dokler bo Amerika imela prevlšek pridelkov v svojih skladiščih,N je rekel Bankhead.
Senator Smith je v svojem govoru pozival farmarske grupe, naj se organizirajo in zahtevajo od kongresa, kar jim gre. Pritiskati morajo na kongres in dobili bodo vse, kar zahtevajo. Slediti motajo zgledu drugih ekonomskih grup, če nočejo biti potisnjeni ob steno.

Mnogo viaokih policijskih uradnikov je bilo odstranjenih in na njihova mosta so bili postavljeni drugi.

Ako zmaga v tej deželi nacizem, bodo ameriški delavci drago plačali za njegji zmago. In od vseh delavcev bodo najbolj prizadeti v takem slučaju baš delavci slovanskega porekla, ker jih naciji in njihovi sovražniki najbolj sovrsžijo.

Delavci v okupiranih deželah, ki so danes nayadni sužnji nasilnosti, tako tudi delavci v uniformah ruske, angleško In niških armad sploh, kličejo ameriško delavce:

Cleveland.—Bilo je 11. novembra leta 190«, ko se je v Collinvvoodu zbrala skupina mladih
milijone Slovanov se junaško bo-1 nadebudnih mož in fantov in

V	slehernem izmed nas zavre kri ob teh vesteh iu misel na maščevanje za storjene krivice se trdno zajeda v nat.
Toda kaj naj storimo?
Ali je mogoče, da nekaj ukre nemo takoj, da osvetimo grozodejstva, ki so jih storili naciji nad našim ljudstvom, ki so naj odločnejši sovražniki Slovanov?
Bratje Slovani!

Takrat je bil Collinwood še izven mesta Clevelanda. Naši ljudje so se pričeli naseljevati v to naselbino okrog leta 1900. Takrat je bila tukaj še tovarna (popravljalnlca) Lakeshore železnice, v kateri je delalo veliko naših ljudi ln večinoma opravljali težka dela. Collinwood (sedaj spojen z mestom Clevelan-dom, toda to Ime lokalno še vedno rabimo) je bil takrat še redko naseljen, največ do mosta, ki vodi preko železnice NYC, severovzhodna stran pa je bila še gozdna planota in sem pa tam stara farma. Naselbina je imela le glavno cesto Bv 192 in Wa» terloo rd^^po kateri je tekla Lakeshore železnica v manjša podeželska mesta. Sedanji Eu-

Naši ljudje so se najraje sha hali skupaj kot prijatelji in znanci po svojih stanovanjih pri kozarcu pijače in največ razpravljali o stari Avstriji, ker je bilo med njimi veliko bivših avstrlj | skih vojakov in dezerterjev.

rumu. Tiste čase se je naselil Collinvvoodu in dal pobudo za ustanovitev društva V boj. Ta krat je bilo v naselbini še malo društev, še manj pa kulturnega življenja, ker se ideja še ni bils razvila. Tako Je bilo v pionir nki dobi menda poysod, v vseh naselbinah: najprvo so seprlče-la razvijati podporna društva potem pa tudi kulturnt in civtč-ne aktivnosti. Prvo podporno društvo v Collinwoodu Jc bilo društvo Janeza Krstnlka JSKJ sedaj ABZ. Nastale pa so potrebe, da ae je ustanovilo tudi društvo V boj. Poglejmo nekoliko v njih prve zapisnike.

novniki. Datum Je omenjen
zgoraj, v knjigi pe so zabeležena
Knafeljs Jožef Prusnik, Franc
Knafelj, Alojz Starman, Jožef Vovk, Ivan Pretnar, Ivan Poren ta, Jakob. Bobnar in Jožef Šabec. ta čarterju so pa vpiaanl: Prusnik Jožef, Dežman Ivan, Blumel )omenlk, Knafelj Ivan, Prusnik ohn, Starman Louis, Volk Jos.,
3retnar Ivan, Porenta Ivan, Kna-elj Frank. Med živimi so še: van Prusnik, ki je že mnogo let član društva Mir 142, Louis Starman, sedaj član društva 158, Jo-seph Prusnik in Jack Bobnar. Zadnja dva sta edina, ki ata ostala ves čas pri društvu. Čast njima kot tudi ostalim ustanov-nikom.
Na prvi seji so vplačali $30 asesmenta. Na jednoto so poslali $27, za zdravniško preiskavo izplačali $6, za knjigo 60c, za znamke 18c in za pošiljatev asesmenta 14c, v blagajni ostalo 0.08. Kot sem že omenil, so mell eno samo knjigo, v katero so beležili vse: imenik in naslove članov in vse račune. Prvi tajnik je bil D. Blumel, ki ga že precej let krije zemlja, kot tudi večino društvenih pionirjev.
Kot že omenjeno, je velika zasluga za ustanovitev društva še ivečega pionirja naselbine Jožeta Kunčiča. Ko se je naselil v Collinvvoodu kot aktiven delavec na delavskem in društvenem po-ju, je tudi v tej naselbini hotel društvo SNPJ. Meseca msres leta 1907 ga že vidimo pri V boju prestopnim listom od društva 17. Ob koncu leta 1907 je dru štvo štelo že 35 članov, toda pra vi razmah je prišel šele leta 1908A Odbor za omenjeno leto je bil: predsednik Joseph Kun člč, podpredsednik Ivan Oblak tajnik Domenik Blumel, drugI tajnik (kot ga knjiga imenuje) Ivan Luznar, blagajnik Ignac Rotar; nadzorniki Ivan Potočar Ivan Prusnik, Frank Mervar, reditelj Ivan Dežman.
Knjiga izkazuje, da je društvo ie leta 1907 prejelo $42 bolniške podpore. Takratni asesment je bil le dolsr na mesec. Marca leta 1908 si je društvo nabavilo svoje znake, ki so stali $18. Tega leta že vidimo med članstvom razne aktivne društvenlke ln agitatorje v naselbini, kot na primer Kotnik, Zupane, Podgo-relec in drugi, ki jih pa že večinoma krije zemlja. - Med temi pionirji je tudi Paul Cesntk, kl zdaj živi na deželi na mali kmetiji; ne le on, tudi njegova soproga je bili^vaktivna. Vzgojila sta lepo družiiy>. ki je bila vsa močno aktivna zk napredek V naselbini Ta družina si je iztekla veliko zaslug na vsem nspred-nem polju, bodisi zs društvo, za klub 49 JSZ ln za SDD, za ka-ters so delsll leta in leta in njih hčere so bile aktivne tudi na kulturnem polju. Žalostno je. ds je njih delo večinoma pozabljeno. d asi ne pri vseh. . Leta 19(19 je društvo štelo 49
selbina šele v začetnem štadiju razvoj«. Tisto leto ni bilo vsž-nih sprememb, kot da se je društvo pripravljalo, da si nabavi svojo zastavo, za katero ao člani prispevali po dolarju. Prvo veselico so imeli 17. oktobra 1908; dohodkov je bilo $203.40, stroškov $159.96, preostanka pa $43.44. Knjige tudi beležijo ds so iz tega plačali $20 delegatu (kakšna razlika!).
Bolj pomenljive je bilo leto 1910, ko je društvo razvilo svojo zastavo 14. avgusta. Zanimiv je račun te priredbe oziroma piknika. : Za zastavo so plačali $150, društveni znaki $6, člani darovali za zastavo $55.64, oglasi na plakatih $23.60, za pivske listke prejeli $696.45, Frank Slibar daroval $10, drugi dohodki $1.75. Skupni dohodki so bili $787.44, kar je za takratne razmere zelo lepa vsota. Stroškov so imeli $477.52 (največ za pivo—$133.-25). Preostanek $309.92.
Br. Kunčič ima še veliko spominov iz tega zgodovinskega dneva. Ta dan je dal društvu širši razmah; sploh se je od takrat pričelo razvijati ne samo društvo, marveč vsa naselbina se je pričela gibati na polju raznih aktivnosti. Društvo V boj in njegovi pionirji so postavili temelj napredku naselbine, ki je bila vsa poznejša leta res prava trdnjava napredne misli.
Leta 1912—23. maja—se je ustanovilo nov6 društvo SNPJ v naselbini, žensko društvo Planinski raj, ki je dobilo številko 185. Pri V boju so bili do takrat samo moški in menda zato je bila potreba po ženskem društvu, ki je v precejšnji zvezi z zgodovino društva V boj. V imeniku članic tega društva namreč vidimo, da so bili njih možje ak tivni pri V boju. Kot pa je razvidno, niso imele posebnega uspeha. Pričeli so se malenkostni prepiri in leta 1925 ao ženske sklenile, da ae pridružijo V boju. Na njih aeji sta bila navzoča predsednik in tajnik, ki sta jim pojasnila pogoje, na katere so članice pristale. Izvolile so odbor štirih članic—Mary Erjavec Josephine Slapnik, Ivana Pretnar in Ana Brenčič—ki so se udeležile prihodnje V bojeve seje. Tists seja je bila zadnja seja omenjenega društva in tako je društvo V boj naraslo za nekaj članic. V arhivu je še vedno zastava Planinskega raja. |V letih 1912, 1913 m 1914, tja do svetovne vojne, ni opažati izrednih aktivnosti pri društvu, razen to, da so člani gojili željo po lastnem domu ter sodelovali
za vsoto nad $14,060, poleg tudi drugače pomagalo.
Spomin mi vhaja v predvojno dobo, kako v tesnem sodelovanju sta bili društvi Mir 142 in V boj 53 (k Miru sem pristopil 1915). Složno se je delalo za SNPJ in njene ideale, kar danes ni več opaziti v tisti meri. Vzrok temu je, ker je v grobu že veliko pionirjev, ki so bolj složno sodelovali. (Dalje prihodnjo sredo.)

V Johnstownu sem opazil — in še marsikje je to v navadi — da imajo naše ženske in dekleta svoje družabne grupe ali skupine, ki se ob večerih shajajo na domu zdaj te in zdaj one članice in igrajo "pinocle" ali kakšno drugo kartno igro, po igri pa je kava ali čaj s prigrizkom. To ni samo preganjanje dolgega časa ali diverzija vsakdanjih skrbi, kr v mnogih primerih bolj tarejo ženo kot moža, pač pa so ti družabni sestanki tudi sredstvo za izmenjavo novic in mnenj, tako da so ženske bolj ali manj informirane o tekočih dogodkih in problemih, kar lahko v splošnem pospešuje napredek naselbine.	. v,
To je le nekaj trakov luči na življenje slovenskih delavcev v industrijski in rudarski Penn-sylvaniji. Nemogoče je iti v podrobnosti in tudi ni potrebno. Že iz teh drobcev čitatelj lahko vidi, da se življenje teh naših naseljencev z drugo in traljd generacijo vred v glavnem ne razlikuje dosti od onega v drugih krajih po Ameriki.
S tem je pa tudi potekel moj obisk Johnstovvna in treba je bilo oditi v drugi kraj ali dva. Treba se je bilo posloviti od prijatelja in sodruga Vidiiha in njegove prijazne boljše polovice ter se jima zahvaliti za "trouble", ki sta ga imela z mojo nadležnost-jo. To se je točno zgodilo.
Nato pa hitro v vlak in nazaj proti Latrobu, Pa., kjer je naša prihodnja postaja in zanimiva točka opazovanja. • Moj prihodnji gostitelj in vodnik, ki je zame trošil čas in gaselin, je brat in sodrug John Fradel. (Se nadaljuje jutri.)

Jesenska veselica Venere 192
Mllwaukee.—V soboto, 22. novembra, se nam obeta prav prijetna zabava. Društvo Venera 192 SNPJ namreč priredi jesensko veselico v korist svoje blagajne v dvorani K. P. na So. 20th st. in W. National ave. V ta namen smo kupile najnovejši radio, ki bo oddan na tej veseli^. Kdor bo najsrečnejši, bo torej imel lep spomin od te zabave.
Opozarjam one članice, ki ne prihajajo na seje, da je društvo sklenilo, da mora vseka članica plačati eno knjižico, ki stane dolar in je v njej 12 vstopnic po lOc, kar lahko vsaka proda ali sama plača, zraven ima pa še priliko, da dobi radio. Toliko v pojasnilo, da ne bo zamere, ker to je društvena doklada in jo bom računala pri asesmentu meseca novembra.
Apeliramo na vsa društva SNPJ, kakor tudi na prijatelje in znance v naši naselbini, da nas obiščete omenjeni večer, ker razvedrila bo dovolj. Preskrbljeno bo vse najbolje in tudi valčkov ne bo manjkalo od stra-ni br. Bsshla. Kat sc programa tiče, bo drugič pojasnjeno.

Cleveland. — Br. Snoy je v Prosveti 18. oktobra nekaj omenil, kar je resnics, namreč, da so bili na konvenciji SNPJ "šlo-garji", ki so konštatirali, da sem mrtev. Kako so prišli do tega sklepa? Moj odgovor je: O-ni so bili, kar se tiče načel SNPJ, napol mrtvi in tako so prišli do zaključka, ker sem sc jaz potegoval za Uvajanje tega, kar je v pravilih, da sem se s tem

bra, popoldne z lepim programom in zvečer s plesom v Delavskem domu na VVaterloo rd Bilo je leta 1906 meseca novembra. Jaz »em takrat »lužil v
armadi Strica Sama in se na Zahvalni dan mastil s puranom ter "pajem". V Collinwoodu, O., so bili pa drugi mladi rojaki, ki so prišli do zaključka, da ni vse tako kot te je mati učila, da moli in pride vse od zgoraj, marveč si sam pomagaj in šele potem ti bo Bog pomagal. Oni so si hoteli sami pomagati s tem, da so si u-stanovili društvo in ga priklopih k SNPJ, ki je bila par let prej ustanovljena. To so bili čini rojaki, ki so prinesli s sabo iz starega kraja socialdemokra-tične principe.
In zgodilo se je, da se je 11. novembra 1906 rodil 53. otrok SNPJ, ki so mu dali ime društvo V boj. (Ker niso bili podkovani v slovenščini, so ga imenovali U boj in to imo je še sedaj na stari, razcesfarni, vendar ponosni zastavi.) Izmed teh so samo še trije ustanovni člani pri raznih društvih, ki pa jih povabimo, da pridejo skupaj, kot tudi Jožeta Kunčiča, ki je pomagal pri ustanavljanju. (On je bil takrat v Lorainu, O., kjer je tudi deloval, da se je ustanovilo društvo 17 in bil takrat njegov član.) Poleg bo tudi Jack Bobnar, ki je pristopil na poznejši seji. Danes šteje društvo 536 članov v odraslem oddelku. To društvo je tudi sodelovalo pri u-stanovitvi društvu 614 in društva 748.
Kako bomo praznovali to pomembno slavnost? Pri nas navadno določa smernice slavnosti društveni odbor. Prišli smo skupaj, povedali vsak svoje mišljenje in šli na delo. Sklenili smo, da povabimo več naših, ki nastopajo na odrih v petju ia muzi-kalično. Obljubili so nam in tako smo sestavili program, ki bo kot sledi:
Pozdravni govor predsedniku in predstavitev začetnikov društva V boj. Živa slika s petjem 20 pevcev pod aranžmom Vinka Coffa. Govor Matta Petrovicha, predsednika elevelandske federacije. Zarjin duet (menda So-phie in Josephine). Igra na piano Amalia Slejko, članica krožka SNPJ. Dvospev Ann Zarnik in miss Gačnik, članici Glasbene matice. Igra na harmoniko Deniel Shrek, član mladinskega krožka. Govor glnvnega tajnika Freda Vidra iz Chicaga. Odmor. Ples v narodnih nošah Lil-liane in Alberta Ulota, spremlja na harmoniko Frank Barbič ml. Solospev Tončke1 Simčič, spremlja Amalia Plut. Igra na violin Frank Slejko, spremi ju na klavir Vera Slejko. Harmo-nika-solo Jamesa Koželja, članu krožka. Nastop Vadnalovih v godbenih in pevskih točkah. I Po zaključku progi uma bo večerja, ples, pijača in druga zabava v obeh dvorunah. V gor-njl bodo igrali Vndnalovi "moderne". v spodnji pa valčke in polke kvartet Zalokarja-Barbiča ml.
Kot omenjeno, bo vse to v nedeljo, 9. novembra, pričetek oh treh popoldne. Vsi, ki vas zanima ta proslava, se udeležita« ker vas bo zanimala g*»dba, petje, govori, lahko pa tudi naše klobase, pijača in ples. Na tej proslavi bo za vsakega nekaj. Torej 9. novembra na svidenje v Slovenskem delavskem domu, 15330 Watcrloo rd.
Nekaj sličnega bodo imeli v soboto zvečer, 25. oktobra, v Bridgeportu pri društvu 13, kjer je aktiven Jože Snoy in se trudi, da se bodo posotniki dobro zabavali. Povabili so trio Franka Barbiča ml., da bo igral za plesalce, ker tam ljubijo metro-polsko muzi ko. Up«mo, ds bodo rojaki in člani SNPJ poseti-li to njihovo priredlw v velikem številu.

Srebrni jubilej Vlpavskeoa raja Cleveland. V nedeljo, 26 oktobra, praznuje društvo Vipavski raj 312 .SNPJ svoj srebrni jubilej, na ksterega ste vsi uljud-no vabljeni. Proslava se vrši v Slovenskem domu na <liolmes ave., pričetek ob 3 30 popoldne, zvečer pa bo ples.
Pred 25 leti so društvs rasls kot gobe po dežju. Med njimi je bilo tudi društvo Vipavski raj. Proslava 25-letnice (sploh vsake obletnice) je v čast in priznanje članom društva, še bolj pa za tiste, ki so največ pripomogli In žrtvovali, da ae taka proslava more vršiti.
Zgodovino našega društva je že tajnik nekaj opisal, nekaj jo bomo pa slišali na proslavi 24. okiobra. Jaz naj le toliko omc-
'nim, da društvo je bilo napredno vseskozi svojih 25 let in upam, da bo tudi ostalo, dokler bo živelo—in živelo bo še dolgo, vsaj tako miplim. Društvo je podpiralo vse naprediu ustanove in darovalo precej denarja v ta na men; malo kateru prošnja je bi la odvmjena. Nuj navedem samo slučaj Toma Mooneyja. Koliko prošenj je bilo samo za pomoč njegovi osvoboditvi in niti ena ni bila odklonjena. Torej dokaz, da smo nekaj žrtvovali v d^ber namen in upam, da bomo tudi tako naduljevali,
Lahko bi se pihalo marsikaj o zgodovini društva, toda jaz se bom dotaknil le programa, ki bo izvajali v nedeljo nu nuši proslavi. Odbor je pripravil prvovrsten program zu take proslave. Izvajan bo sevedu največ s pomočjo drugih, nekaj bo pa tudi naših moči. Program bo sledeči:
1) Predstava Žive slike pod vodstvom Vinka Coffu, ki je mojster v tej rtroki. 2) Prod stavljeni botfo uštnnnvitelji društva, ki so še fejst fantje in dekleta; seveda, malo v letih *nu>, toda nič zato. 3) Nastop mrs. Simčič, ki poje kot sluvček—meni je rekla, da bo ra naši proslavi še slavčka prekosila. 4) Govor predsednika gl. nadzornega odseka Matta Petrovicha. ft) Nastop 80C. Zurje, ki so fejst fantje in dekleta; oni priredijo svoj jubilejni koncert na zahvalni dan in ni več kot prpv, da se vsi udeležimo—do se«I <j sem se udeležil še vsakega Zurjincgu kon-čertu, kar Je lahko rekord. 6) Govor Milana Mcdveška, čluna gl. nadzornega odseku. 7) Nastop Jadrana; tudi oni so fejst fantje in dekletu, ki tudi prire-de svoj koncert ali opereto in tudi do njih imamo isto dolžnost, da »e udeležimo vsi. 8) Nastop Vudnulovih. ki so pravi mojstri na odru; lcdor jih je že enkrat slišal, jih želi še večkrat. 9) Nastop pevskega zbora Slovana; tudi oni so rekli, du bodo peli kot še nikoli In tudi oni pri-' redijo koncert in je nušu dolžnost, da jim povrnemo. 10) Nastop Antona Eppichu: kaj on zna, je že večkrat pokuzul in tudi /h nas je pripravil nekaj takegu, da boste vsi popcikuli »ni »meha. U) Nustop fevarteto iz col-linwoodske sretmfe šole; proizvajali bodo angleške pesmi iz razloga, ker se uči? cngleške; ne poznum vseh, marveč le hči Vinko Coffa. 12) Govor Filipu Go-dine, upravnika Proi vete, ki bo glavni govornik.
Zadnja. 13. točka ho pa eno-dejanka "Pol' vimi, pol vode". Igralci so vsi-člunl nušegu društva, ln šicer JoŠko Jerklč, Vinko Zgonik, Mary' Klun, Lucle Pe-trovčič. Režlra br. Ferblžun.
Iz tega je razvidno, du bo res zanimiv;program na tej proslavi našega društva. ToreTvabimo vse od blizu ln daleč, vse znun-ce in prijatelje, vse članstvo SNPJ, posebno pu še društvene člane. Na svidenje v nedeljo popoldne v Slovenskem domu na liolrncK uve, pri "Vlpavčanih".

New Program for Our Juvenile Circles
One of the most constructive decisions made by the recent convention of the SNPJ, was the adoption of a tvvelve-point Juvenile Program designed to promote our Juvenile Circles and to put them "on the map."
Our Juvenile Circles were established four years ago and now numher about 35 aetive units. The new program is sure:to augment these very considerably, and at the sartie time bolster our Juvenile Department ranks.
Our Circle activities, as outlined in the Program presented at the convention by the special committee, will henceforth be coordinated and direited by a Juvenile Director elected at the convention. This is a new office in our organization. The Director will be an executive member of the Supreme Board, and the authority and responstbility of this office give assurance that our juvenile movement is destined to bring favorable results in the future. To be sure, the united cooperation of rank and file membership is necessary and expected.
By appropriating the sum of $5000 annually for the promotion of Juvenile Circles, with additional sums as deemed necessary, and the diversified activities envisioned in the Program, the entire undertaking will be on a much larger scale than heretofore attempted.
The new Juvenile Program has wide possibilities for genuine interesi, progress, and expansion. It* promises not only to consolidate our present forces by inatilling in our youngsters the špirit of our organization's principles and ideals, but it will also make the Society consdous of the vi tal importance of a strong Juvenile Department.
Other provisions in the twelve-point program include Juvenile Festivals consisting of vocal and instrumental as well as dramatic and cultural talent; these to be pro-moted locally, sectionally, and if feasible, nationally. Fur-thermore, local, seetional and national sports are to be fostered. Not overlooking the educational side of the question, a Juvenile Library is "also envisioned. Thus the Program includes practically ali phases of juvenile needs in recreation, sports, education as well as entertainment
Another important feature is the establishment of Sum-mer Camps for SNPJ juveniles near our large communi-ties, the maintenance of which, hovvever, would have to be provided partly by local lodges and partly by the So-ciety. This project viewed by some at first as impossible, can be put into operation in most of our large communi« ties. In Cleveland, for instance, the SNPJ farm can be utilized for this purpose, and other communities will un-doubtedly find simliar project« practicable.
Quite consistently, the Program provides for the com-pensation of Circle Managers, who shall be graded accord-ing to the results shown. Also, it asks for a Booklet con-taining particulars and instructions, to be prepared by the Juvenile Director, subject to approval of the Executive Commttiee. In addition, award certlficatea for meritori-ous work will be given to deserving members, based on a rating system.
Finally, the Program calls for a membership campaign in 1942 "to attain a new campaign record," with "Good \Vill" suggested as a name for the drive. Also, that a Juvenile Convention be held in 1945, and a contest for the change of name, Mladinski List, to one that vvill be more suitable.
It goes without saying that the Program was unani-mously adopted by the convention. Its 12 points cover practically everything that is needed to make our Circles strong. In this work, the united support of aH members vvill be required. We are confident that this will be forth-coming.	r *

BUFFALO, N. V.—Another "get-together" of our members and their frienda is being held Saturday evening, November 1, at Jack's Plače, 1187 Tonawanda St. Thia affair will be a special attraction for our juveniles in view of the fact that they are aspecially invited to come in masquerade—and as for the sdults, their attraction shall be di-reeted in "dancing and feaating."
A party ia a party and thia proves no oxception. As in the past, the whola family ia invited from Grand-Dad to Baby. Bring the boy-friend, or the girl-friend or come alone to an evening of real fun. There's a "Mystery Package" in the offing, too, so make every effort to be with us. Lodges of Buffalo, Gowanda, etc., be alert for further nevvs.

Lodge 86 has good bovvlers and we hope to see them in Mil-waukee at the 1942 tourney.

Meeting Minutes
An important entry made cording Secretary, Ed Godec, shows that, if the Ohio SNPJ Day is can-celled for 1942, lodges 49 and 643 vvill unitedly sponsor a picnic so gi-gantic in scope that it vvill be com-parable to the annual summer event. Both lodges have already gont on record committing themselves to this project but are vvithholding any definite aetion until they knovv 'What is going to happen to the Ohio SNPJ Day in 1942?" Girard vvas favored vvith it thia year and from conversations vvith prominent officials from Bridgeport and Cleveland, we believe that neither vvill attempt it. That leaves it up to Barberton, the home of the Buckeyes.
Convention report vvas given and approved. The recommendations of the Convention Circle Committee vvere read and discussed. Then from William Umeck came a letter of ap-preciation. The lodge is pledged to a policy of purchasing gifts for each and every member taken for training, and as this brought BiH, vvho received one of the gifts, memories of his lodge, it seems that this is a move in the right direetion. The letter vvas postmarke<L MISSOURI. The Maček family provided the Eagles vvith four nevv members last month.

Terrible reports are reaching us these days from every Slavic coun-try. No one with Slavic blood in his veins can remain indifferent to them.
fn Czechoslovakia the f i r i n g squads and hangmen of the execu-tioner Heydrich have murdered in eold blood aeveral hundred leading Czechs. They did not spare even the representatives of the Prague Puppet Government installed by themselves, and thousands of Czech patriots vvere arrested and sent to the torture chambers of the Gestapo.
In Poland terror without end con-tinues. Thousands of Poles paid with their lives for remaining true to their nationality. Whole villages and towns vvere depopulated and only the lack of bpUer copnection vvith Poland is bfndering us from seeing the true pieture of frighi-fulness to which unhappy Poland is subjeeted today.
In Jugoslavia pitehed battles oc cur daily between the partisan groups and the Gcrmans and the Nazi cxecutioners punish the rebels by bullet and rope while the German bombing planeš are obliterating whole towns from the surface of the earth.
Thousands of Jugoslavs are dying in the rebellion of the brave Chet-niks, who are valiantly defending their kin against the intruders.
ln Bulgaria ruthless persecution vvas started against those who re fuse to submit ta government of Quislings vvho have sold their ovvn people to the Nazi tyrants.
In the Soviet Union a vast river of blood of Russians and Ukrainians runs high, millions of Slavs are en gaged in brave defense against the eruel aggressor vvho has attacked the Eastern Slavs to enslave them and to rob Russia of the sources of materials in order that the NaziB may continue enslaving the Slavs of whom they want to create a race of German slaves and robota.
The blood boils in every one of us and the idea of revenge for the | vvrongs perpetrated upon our old countries is seiting fast in cvery mlnd.
Yet what is to be done? Is it possible to do something im-medlatcly to avenge the atroci-ties perpetrated upon our people by the Nazis vvho are the most resoluto enemies of aH Slavs. Brother Slavs!
We have in our hands the means by vvhich to oppose immediately and efficiently the executioner who is preparing to turn his mailed fist even against our adopted country, the United States of America, after he (Jominates and enslaves Europe.
Accordingi to the governmental reports, 60 per cent of the tuorkers emploged in our defense industry and producing the arms for America, Great Britain, Russia and their AUies, are ioorkers of Slavic tmgin: Poles, Czechosldvaks, Jugoslavs, Russians and UKramans
It is in our hands and it depend« on us vvhether especially Russia, vvhich at this moment is defending herself so bravely and hcroically against a crucl enemy, shall have enough means of defense.
It is our duty to do everything in our povver so that Russia, where also Polish and Czechoslovak regimenta are in process of formation vvill obtain enough ammunition, cannons, tanks and alrplanes to stop the Gcrmai) flood and to drivc the
Nazi murderers back vvith bloody heads.
There is danger in delay.
No t one pun, »or tank or atr-plane ichioh can be produced and shipped speedily to the battlefield, must be delayed or left behihd through any fault oi ours. The lack of these arms vvould open nevv road for the advance of the Germans.
It ls our sacred duty as human beings, as Slava and Americans to speed up produetion and transport of war material to Ruaaia. China and Great Britain, to baUlefielda where the fightors against Nazi Germany and her Italian and Japanese ally are waging* an uphill fight.
• This task is most important of. ali novv.
Everything else must be relegated to the second row.
We must at this time concentrate aH our effarta on this.
The expressions of sympathy, slo-gans, and rosolution* will not help if the fighters apainat Nazism urili have to oppose the modern arms of the enemy ivith bare hands.
I know that the vvorkers and or-ganized labor especially have their just oconomic needs vvhich must be defended and demands whiCh must be met, but the defense oŽ iabor's rights certainly can be and must be conducted in the same manner as it i« being conducted by organized labor in Great Britain today, namely in such a manner that the produc

It is our eonaldei^ed belief that tlje work of the convention vvas eon-struetive and, should serve for greater Society aetlvlty and in-creuaed membetahlp and progresa for our SNPJ.

There are three outstanding athletlc affalrs a year sponsored by our Society. Tbe annual SNPJ ten-pln bowling tournament, tha national duck-pln tournament whlch Is mo*tly held ln Pennsgrlvania reglon because that reglon Is known for duck-pln bowUng, and the national softball tournament which is held ln conjunctlon with the snnual national SNPJ Day which wa* lnstituted qulte a few years ago. At these annual affalrs our membeis, pertlclpatlng ln these tournament* and oelebrations, trgvel many a mile to be present at these affalrs. and lt costs them money out of their own pockets. They meet old friends and make new ones, and also help advertiie and promote good SNPJ fraternallsm. No one can deny that these vsrlous sthletic affalrs sre beneflclal to the Soelety. Therefore the» program of athletics should be continued ln our organization, especially since our Juvenile Circle* as they grow older wlll also demand our attention and will be asking for financial help to promote šport* to malntaln and keep the Juvenile Circla* alive. The Athletlc Board wiU have an sppropriate resolution to present to this convention and I hope that lt will be given *V*ry possible conslderatlon «0 that our organization oan really have s good athletlc program.	U
The gusstlon of merger between our Soclety and the SSPZ, vvhich I am hopeful of, wlll necessltate a greater Incrsase ln our athletic fund.
THE PROSVETA
Our offieial organ Is the medlum whereby our members can espress their viaw* and sentlments, not oi)ly ln connectlon wlth our Soclaty, but also the economic, socisl and political situation that we as workers in this country sre faced with. Our members should be encouragad to ex-press their vievvs, and not be dlscouraged by gettlng their artial** cut or Jumblad up Just because they don't happen to *ult the edltor; or by having tha edltor take advanUge of his offlce to stUck or rldlcule the vvriter of the artlcle by edltor'* note* or comment*. I believe our members are intelllgent enough to declde for themselves whether an artlcle is good or bad, and therefore edltor's comment* st the end of sn' artlcle are entlrely unneoe*ssry snd uncalled for. I believe the only artlcle* that should be •uppressad are those whlch oould result in the Society being held for Ubel.
Our organization was founded on a free-thought basis, lat os keep it that wsy.	i
SUPPORTINO UNIONS - n S < Our orgsnizstion should contlnua to support bona me trada unlonlsm, snd th* struggles of the vvorklng men snd women ln this country to gsln for themselves a better way of life for their labor. Ona way we can help as sn orgsnizstion is to see to it that we buy, wherever possible, unlon made products that the Soclety needs, such as papar. buttons, badges, oalandsrs, etc. By so dolng we vvill do our shar* as a' vvorkers' fraternal orgsnlsatlon.	■ t: '
THE PR!!9TERY	V
I hsve hesrd many complainta from varlous lodges »of oUr Soclety that the eo*t of printing i* too high. It l* the duty of our lodge* to patronise our own prirtt shop, tt belongs to the members, therefoM lt should be used to tha advantage of th* members and lodges. Our* Is s unlon prlntery whlch is no more thsn proper, but stili our prlces on printing sre above those that are quoted by other unlon concerns that do the same type of vvork. There must be somethlng wrong. I hope that this convention vvill do somethlng to remedy this situation.
Thia concludes my report. I hope the delegates wlll take it in the same light that I give it, no personal blas agalnst any membar.of .our organization; I am only trylng to give my vievvpoint ln makh* our 8NPJ blggar and better and to follovv the principles sat doWn by tha foundars of our organization.	FRANK BOLKA, 2nd Vlce President
Report accepted.	~	*
Dlatrlct vlce-presldent J. Klansek reada h ia report, also not published. My report cover* the four yesrs' vvork vvhich I hav* done for the SNPJ since th* last convention when this offlce of Dist. Vi** President vvas first inaugurated by our organization. Of course, aH that was ezpected of us may not or may have been satlsfactory to our people. But vve must remcmbsr it was Just the sUrt of this vvork. and lt vvill bring better re-sulta ln time.
My vvork vvas llmlted ln my dlstrlct because of the close contact of the maln offlce ln Chicago and, naturally, much of the vvork and advice that I could have rendered vvas done by some executive committee ihember. wher*as in the Western and Eastern distriets the Dist. Vlce Pres. had more dutles to perform. My work vvas more or less ln the form of a good-vvill ambaasador. I attended many of the social functlons of our organization both ln my dlstrlct and ln other varlous vleinltles. I found the members ln very high špirit about our organization and very obllging to rendar any assistance possible, e*pecially ln our younger E. Speaking element 1 find that they seem to be more understanding about our Insurance plans and vvork than they were a few y*ars ago.
MEMBERSHIP
Accordlng to flgures of our supreme secretary, we have galned membership of nearly 4,000 membars since 1937; or ln other words a gain of 1,000 members a year ln our adult dept, but ln our Juvenile dapt. w* dldnt do so well; we have 796 membars less than in 1937. Of cours*. many of these hav* tranaferred into our adult dept. Th* polnt I wl*h to bring out ls this: We have to bulld our reserve membership ln the Juvenile dept. So let us bulld our plan* around obtaining more Juvenile*.
The Juvenile Circle* ar* * great aaaet ln bullding up auch a reserve, but it ian t a workable plan ln aU our communltle«. W* find that wh*re there ls an actlve *nd understanding circle adviaer w* hav* an setlve circle and act Ive lodge members; where th* advlsers are Ux, they dont far* so well and ln many communltle* where it would be poSblble to organlze * circle, we h*ve no one who l* sulUble for such vvork (that I* gratls work), or we find th* member* are prejudlced to *uch *ctlvlty a* they stili are in having Engllah speaking lodges Oh y**l we stili hsve som* and some of them are secretaries of our aenior lodge*. So I beg of you,^brothei and *l*Ur delegate«, to go home and cooperate With this mov*mani; lntere*t them and then urge your Dist. Vlce pre*. to organlse such a clnle. If you don t think you your*elves can organla* on*, and aa-plaln th* idea of these circle*.	9
In our English speaking lodges we find members ln *arn*st and ln <eallty strlvlng to enlarg* and advertlac the SNPJ,/ Th* SNPJ pay ls one of these ideas whtch interaated tlie youth and now alao th* older members. We find this brings together many of our p*opl* from far and wld* and advertises the SNPJ well.

athletics	i
Our position on athletics is about th* same as at the t,m , 1 convention. Contrary to the opinion of aome of our older m I do not support athletics so that our youth may piay spend our money, but chiefly because we want to give our^T 'y I an opportunity for healthful športa and recreation in it* 0wn lll and in this way keep them vvith u*.	or*»nua|
The last convention Increased the maxlmum amount whirh J .pent for athletto activitle* of our lodge*, with the exZtTtio? TA that activiUe. vvould be accompanied by the re^i^l new members. Hovv far this vvas realized it is impossibie fn J accurately. Hovvever, it is certain that tnany a youn* n^Z "! attracted by our sports, and lt ls equally certain that wi?hout 1 vvould have lost many a member vvho vvould have gone wh£Tl avallable.	>1
As ln Other matters, so have we learned the most about thi. J aetual experience, and this ls vvhat w* can rely on We kn J youngsters like šport* and are given to varlous games; this m«! I the young vvUl be attracted and held by the one who is able tlT J these thlngs. Therefore, vve will be almost compelled to continue 1, J port athletic« in order to provide for the Inflovv of young memiJr.1 thus help to Insure the Society's future. If vve choose capable lead^l this vvork, vvho shall have the question of securlng nevv membeJ much at heart as sports. and if vve permit more financial support ell nate varlous other dlfflcultie* vvhich expecience has revealed and iinol our athletics along the*« Unes, we shall have much more aetual su J ln the future, and this phase of our activitle* vvill be found profitable J
finance8	j
Adminiaterlng asseU and Investlng funds is always the most imanj phase of every business organization and this is true of a mutual vZl tive such as our Society. The membership ls constantly informed throl the minutes of supreme executive and finance committee meetings m J as other official report* on our expendltures anci investments For 1 reaaon a detalled report is unnecessary here. It can be stated howel that the supreme executive committee vvhich administers the buiJ of the Society, ls very thrlfty and cautlous. It buys only vvhat u J lutely necessary, and conducts the flnances and aH business generali J carefully and safely a* possible.	1
Thi* is true alao of the supreme finance committee vvhich has chJ of Investlng the Soclety's funds. It reallzes lt* great responsibilit?. VI special care must be taken especlally la these time* vvhen it is harJ obtain bonds and other Investments vvhich bear sufficient interest 1 are also safe.
As ls knovvn, some of our Investments vvere considerably affectedl the depresslon. Hovvever, vve came through without serious harml danger to the organization as can be seen from the detailed fina n J reports and finance committee reporta presented to the convention. Al we have sold nearly ali the rcal estate taken over for loans, most of ii favorable prlces. The outlook for the sale of the remainder is good.
Our Society's assets amount to aeveral millions, and this is administel mo*tly by the finance oommittee. It ls evident that this is an impoitl committee vvhich requires conslderable knovvledge of financial and relJ matters. At present, three members of the supreme executive commiti are on the finance committee also, and this comblnatlon ha* proved to j a good one.
ASSISTANCE TO AOED MEMBERS
We have been conslderlng and trylng to solve thi* question on pai before every convention for the last 25 years perhap*. But it has ne been solved practlcally and *ati*factorily; the reason prob*bly being vve have never been vvllllng to contrlbute expressly for this purpose solution of our problem to sub*tantlally provide for aged members naver be reached ln this way.
If anyone is sincerely ln favor of establlshlng dapendable and suffi aid for our aged and lnflrm members, I am certainly that person. r ago I drevv up a plan to bulld and malntaln a Home and presented the, convention. Of coiirse, the plan caUed for the necessary mont contrlbutlon of each member for this purpose, and this proved falsl. definite decision vvas made, but the question vvas deferred until bet tlmes vvhich never came and probably never vvill. Later I prepared a p for old-age benefit or pension. It vvas voted on in a members' referend —and lost. _
It ls evident from the dlscussion* ln Prosveta that the majority of members refuse to hear anything of any increased monthly assessme or contributlons. Whlle this remains true, it is impossible to think of Improvement ln that r**pect over what vve have at present. For I reaaon, I am not presentlng any special plan this time, but I recomme aiding aged and needy members from the special benefit fund as we h been dolng, but somevvhat more adequately than heretofore.
ACTION rOR MERGER
For many years vve have had the very important merger question fore us. It is knovvn that in the paat vve planned the merger of ali liberally Incllned and prlncipally cloaer related benefit organizsti The SNPJ vvas always ready, our committee was slncere and tried b to accompllah this. But in recent times only the members of SNPJ i SSPZ shovved any interest in s merger. Our aetion, therefore. hss be only for the merger of tljese tvvo socletles. and it finally has brought long desired and anxlously awaited result.	I
The minutes of our conferences and discussions a* vvell »« the fin merger contract have aH been published and our vvork snd achieveme are therefore knovvn to you and need not be given here. I would h to mentlon only that are trled ln every way and vvent as far ss possifa so that the merger vvould be realized if at aH pOMlbl*. This csused i rcat deal of trouble and worry and a lot of extra vvork.
Hovvever, vve are very happy, as ali loyal members must be also, to 1 ble to pr***nt to thi* convention such an ezcellent and f*vorable mer contract; alao, that the actlon ha* been brought to the polnt where only convention* of both socletles need ratify and approve our work vvhich thia matter wUl b* finished snd finally settled.
This convention vvill therefore b« a merger convention also. and 1 special historlcal slgnlficance.
STATE Or THE SOCIETT
From reporta of the varlous department* and pha*e* of our »ctlvitk and from vvhat l* hereln stated, it is evident that the Society u in • satiafactory condltlon. We are making good progre** in membership a« even better in our aaaeU, and the organization « rtanding i» <,*crUt'"\ general. Thi* meana that it ha* every poa*ibility for expansion ana good future.
