Za tisto priliko je vod-tvo dnevnika “Jutro” naprosi-o nekatere ugledne može, da laj s kratko izjavo opišejo svo-e razmerje do novinstva in lovinarskega dela. Od teh izjav, ti jih je “Jutro” priobčilo v o-■iginalih, je menda najbolj crepka in značilna izjava zna-lega pisatelja Vladimira Levstika, ki se glasi: “Služba resnici in pravici: s ;em je izražen bitni, večni smi-tel novinarstva. Novinarstvo! nore služiti svojemu velikemu lamenu samo tam, kjer obstoji svoboda tiska. Svoboda tiska je si-čni utrip svobode narodov. Svoboda tiska je legitimacija civiliziranih držav. Nad svobodo tiska sta samo še resnica in pravica. Dokler novinar diha, bo v! imenu resnice in pravice, v imenu civilizacije in človeškega dostojanstva terjal — svobodo tiska!” NEURJE NAD POHORJEM t Zadnjo nedeljo v avgustu se t je nad Pohorjem razbesnelo sil- ^ no neurje, ki je povzročilo o-;x grom no. .škodo., v podpohorskih i1 vaseh. Najhujše so bile pri za-dete vasi: Oglenšak, Gabernik,j,s Bukovca, Zgornja in Spodnja ^ Polskava. Poljski pridelki, ki ^o bili še zunaj, so uničeni in njive in travniki so zasuti s;! peskom. Mnogokje je voda vdi-j1 rala v hiše in hleve, drugod je | raztrgala ceste in odnesla mo- 1 stove. Prebivalstvo tistih k ra- ( jev je obupano, ker je bilo že! meseca junija težko prizadeto po toči. !( t TUDI ORGANIZACIJA \\ V Beogradu je bil osnovan " akcijski odbor za organizacijo 1 vseh onih, ki so bili za časa ' svetovne vojne pod Avstro-1 Ogrsko zaradi svojega nacio-j na 1 nega mišljenja in delovanja 1 internirani, kot veleizdajniki 1 v preiskavi ali zaprti, kakor tu- ( di vseh onih, ki so bili kot civil- * ni ujetniki med vojno interni- 1 rani po raznih taboriščih v 1 Avstro-Ogrski. j1 ] LEPA STAROST j' V Gorenjah na Primorskem P je skoro na pragu stoletnice j' omahnil v večnost stari primorski hrast Ivan Jurca. Rojen je; bil leta 1838. Z osemnajstim ’ letom se je poročil in slavil po vrsti srebrno, zlato, demantnoji fn železno poroko. V zakonu se 11 mu je rodilo šest otrok, od ka- i terih živita še dve hčeri in sin; < za pokojnikom žaluje poleg o- 1 men j enih še 28 vnukov in 2!) pravnukov. V svojem rojstnem kraju je dolga leta županoval i in se je posebno uspešno bavili' s sadjarstvom in čebelarstvom. 11 Ko so prišli Italijani, je bil o?i < edini, ki si vkljub grožnjam in pritisku ni pustil izpremeni-j ti imena v Giorgio. Ko so krušili slovenske napise s sporne-! nikov, si je dal postaviti grobnico s slovenskim imenom in' posvetilom. Bolezni skoro ni poznal. Do zadnjih dni je bil čil in čvi-st in še čital je brez: očal. Dan pred smrtjo je po-1 tožil, da se čuti nekam trud-: nega in drugi dan je zadremal za vedno. (Dalje na 2. strani) VSAK PO SVOJE Ameriški trgovci na Kitajskem, kjer se zdaj vrše krvave j olimpijske tekme med Kitajci in Japonci, zahtevajo, da jim ameriška vlada pošlje za pro-tekcijo oddelek vojnih ladij in nekaj divizij vojakov. Kaj zato, le bi taka ekspedicija stala stotine milijonov dolarjev in tisoče življenj ameriških fantov, saj se gre vendar za zavarovanje privatnih profitov! Ali niso davkoplačevalci za to, da take izdatke pokrivajo, in ali niso ameriški vojaki za to, da se tepejo za koristi špekulantov v inozemstvu, ki se skrivajo za ameriško zastavo! Ampak predsednik Roosevelt misli drugače in pravi : ne! Tak predsednik! jjc Lepo mesto Šanghaj na Kitajskem ogrožajo Japonci, kolera, bubonska kuga in tifus. Drugače pa je tam čisto prijetno. * General čang Kajšek je bil imenovan za diktatorja Kitajske. če bo Kitajska v tem tempu nadaljevala, bo kmalu tako civilizirana kot so Italija, Nemčija in Rusija. ❖ Enkrat ta mesec pojde baje Mussolini obiskat Hitlerja v Berlin. Konferenca med diktatorjema bo strogo zaupna, zato se bosta možaka morda tudi kaj pomenila o svojem fanto-vanju, na primer, če Hitler še kaj hodi pod okno pol jske igralke Pole Negri in če Mussolini Še kaj škorttjffce rosi za lepo Francozi jo, madamo Fontanges. :I* V Evropi se mnogo govori o prijateljskih odnošajih z Ameriko, toda nam se zdi. da najboljše, kar je zdaj med Evropo in Ameriko, je široki Atlantski ocean. Predsednik je oni dan dejal, da je svet dandanes v veliki brozgi. Seveda je naš najvišji uradnik pri tem imel v mislih Španijo in Italijo, ne pa naše idealno razkopane St. Clair ceste v Clevelandu. * j Anglija bo v bodoče sprejemala v armado tudi mladeniče pod 122 funtov težke, ki jih je doslej smatrala za prelahke. V tem bodo velike ugodnosti. Drobni mali vojaki bodo potrebovali manj blaga za uniforme, manj usnja za čevlje in pasove, manj prostora v vlakih, avtomobilih ;in letalih in v vojni jih bodo krogle težje pogodile kot njihove j velike in debele tovariše. I Brivcem v vesoljni Nemčiji je naročeno, da naj spravljajo odstrižene lase in mustače v vreče in jih oddajajo vladi, ki jih bo ; predelavala v blazine, preproge in slično. To dokazuje, da je diktatura končno pričela Nemce tudi za lase in mustače vleči. * Leta 1940 bi se imele vršiti svetovne olimpijske tekme v To-jkiju na Japonskem, toda zadnje čase se govori, da bodo odpovedane. Dvomljivo je namreč, da j bi bila do takrat krvava tekma med Kitajci in Japonci zaklju-;čena. * j Katedralo Notre Dame v Parizu so začeli graditi v dvanaj-istem stoletju, pa še zdaj ni i čisto dogotovljena. To je toliko ; j bolj čudno, ker pri gradnji niso 'zaposleni WPA delavci. . I * t; Iz Tarpe na Madžarskem poročajo, da so tam nedavno med (Dalje na 2. strani) RAZNO 12 AMERIKE IN INOZEMSTVA ; c BOJEVIT GOVOR 1 Predsednik Roosevelt je v svo- N jem radio govoru na večer 17. 1 septembra izrazil toliko bojevi- 1 tosti, da je gotovo silno presene- J til tiste njegove nasprotnike, ki ' so upali, da bo po nekaterih po- 1 razih v kongresu odnehal v bor- 1 bi za pravice širokih ljudskih * mas. Poudaril je, da reforme, ki 1 so potrebne, morajo biti izvede- * ne zdaj, ne pa šele po 20 letih. s Navajal je primere, ko je naj-|s višje sodišče priznalo za ustav* ne gotove od kongresa sprejete postave, ki jih je par desetletij ‘ prej proglašalo za neustavne. ' Izjavil je, da ta dežela ne potre- ( buje in ne mara diktature niti 1 od posameznikov niti od malih ( skupin. Demokracija, ki vlada ! po volji in soglašanju z večino * državljanov, bo rešila vse pro- 1 bleme, ki se pojavljajo, ne da bi 1 pri tem trpela tradicionalna a- jx meriška svoboda. ____ NAPADI NA BLACKA > Pred dobrim tednom, to je ob j času, ko se je sodnik Hugo L. , Black mudil na počitnicah v Ev-|ropi, ga je kapitalistično časo- i ipisje Zedinjenih držav pričelo ; silno napadati, češ, da je bil ne- i i koč član danes že skoro pozab- ( ljene teroristične organizacije ] Ku Klux Klana in da zaradi te- ; ga ni sposoben biti član vrhov- •: nega sodišča. Da-li so te obdol- j I žitve kapitaliatičnih Uijto.v.resin- , ! čne ali ne, se m ugotovljeno. Toda liberalni novinar Jay i Franklin, ki je znan po svoji!; -koloni “We The People,” pri- : občevani v raznih listih, je pri- ( šel po daljši zadevni razpravi do ; sledečega zaključka: “Obdolži-tev proti sodniku Blacku je, da je pripadal k sedaj mrtvemu : Klanu okrog leta 1920. Njegov zločin pa je, da je prijatelj a-meriškega delavstva in sovražnik plutokracije na Wall Streetu.” DVOJNO DRŽAVLJANSTVO Nihče ne more služiti dvema gospodoma istočasno in nihče ne more biti dober državljan Zedinjenih držav in obenem prisegati zvestobo zastavam inozemstva, posebno onim, ki predstavljajo diktature, katere so v direktnem nasprotju z idejo svobode, kakor jo razumemo v Zedinjenih državah. V tem smislu se je izrazil zvezni senator Borah v svojem govoru na predvečer 150-letnice sprejetja ameriške ustave. Mož je imel v mislih aktivnosti nemških nacij ev v tej deželi, dasi jih ni direktno imenoval. AKTIVNOSTI NACIJEV Ameriški listi zadnje čase mnogo poročajo o napol vojaš-j kih organizacijah in raznih aktivnostih nemških nacij ev v Zedinjenih državah in zelo verjetno je, da bo kongres v prihod-. njem zasedanju odredil preis-i kavo nacijskih in fašističnih aktivnosti. Propaganda za diktatorski sistem vlade v tej deželi i po nemškem in italijanskem i - vzorcu se je baje zadnje čase i zelo razpasla. IZVOZ OROŽJA Predsednik Roosevelt je pretekli teden izdal odlok, da nobena ladja, ki je last vlade, ne sme dovažati orožja, streliva in dru-J gih vojnih potrebščin Kitajski 1 ali Japonski. Privatno lastovani ' parniki, ki plovejo pod ameriš-^ ko zastavo, se sicer še smejo ba-' viti s takim izvozom, toda to (Dalje na 2. strani) DVELETNIREKORD Works Progress administracija (WPA), ki je miljone neza- < ooslenih delavcev obeh spolov ,'zela iz nevarnega brezdelja direktnih relifnih seznamov in jih postavila na delo pri koristnih javnih podjetjih, deluje že ne-a nikdar niso zna,li pametno »iti in nikdar ne bodo, prohi- < licija gori ali doli. j Nasproti propagandi suha-ev je nedavno kongresnik lohn J. Corcoran, iz države Missouri navedel vrsto stati-itičnih ugotovitev, ki dokazuje-o, da je bila ukinitev prohibi-:ije splošno v korist dežele. Kongresnik Corcoran je na )odlagi statističnih podatkov z.javil, da je sedaj manj smrt-.lih slučajev zaradi alkoholična, kakor jih je bilo tekom prohibicije; da je manj areta-•i.i zaradi avtomobilske vožnje • pijanem stanju; da je manj iretacij zaradi pijanosti; da 1 e močno padlo število večjih| criminal nih činov, posebno u-io j ev; da je man,f zakonskih očitev zaradi prohibicije; da ederalna in državne ter mest- j le vlade dobivajo ogromne do-lodke od davkov na opojne pijače; da farmer ji iztržijo nad lest tisoč milijonov dolarjev etno za pridelke, ;ki se porab-jajo za izdelavo J#ojnih pi/ j Po izjavi kongresnika Cor- j ;orana je zvezna vlada od uki-litve prohibicije do letos prejela $1,759,000,000 od'davka na opojne pijače. Poleg tega so iobile državne in mestne vlade ,7eč tisoč milijonov dolarjev od davkov na opojne pijače. V raznih državah se ti dohodki porabljajo za starostne penzi-je, za vzdrževanje šol in druge potrebne ustanove. Vsiljevanje prohibicije je stalo federalno in državne vlade vsako leto težke milijone dolarjev, dohodkov od tega ni bilo nikakih, uspehi pa so bili ničevi, človeške narave se ne da predrugačiti s postavami. Samo z izobrazbo je mogoče doseči zaželjeno zmernost. Vsaka prepoved vedno rodi odpor, posebno še med Američani. Tekom prohibicije so ljudje v splošnem več pili kot pijejo zdaj, uživali so slabše in mnogokrat strupene pijače, za katere so plačevali pretirane cene, federalna in druge vlade pa od tega niso dobile nikakih dohodkov. Vsi dohodki so se stekali v žepe butlegarjev, ki so se združevali v močne skupine, podkupovali uradnike in mnogokje korumpirali lokalne oblasti. Med temi butlegarskimi gangeži so mnogokrat nastajali krvavi poboji, v katerih so padali tudi popolnoma nedolžni ljudje. Raketirstvo raznih vrst, ki se je bilo tekom prohibicije silno i-azpaslo po vsej deželi, je z odpravo prohibicije skoro popolnoma izginilo. IDEALNO MESTO Dve uri avtomobilske vožnje od Hollywooda oddaljeno mestece Chino nudi s svojo najbližjo okolico scenerijo za najrazličnejše filmske slike. Edino mesto v Ameriki, kjer se sname več filmskih slik kot v Chinu, je sam Hollywood. Tri tisoč prebivalcev broječe mesto Chino, Cal., je dobilo svoje ime po Kitajcih, ki so bili pred mnogimi 1 leti njegovi edini prebivalci. ZNAMENIT DRŽAVNIK ------ Bratski češki narod je dal sve-! tu lepo število mož, ki so bili v j čast svoji ožji domovini, Slovanstvu in človeštvu sploh. V| prvih vrstah med temi pa se ne-j . dvomno blesti ime Tomaža G. -1 Masaryka, ki je, kakor je bilo ' že kratko poročano, dne 14. sep-1 ‘s tembra za vedno Zatisnil oči v;* svojem gradiču Lany, nedaleč I1 od Prage. Simbolično je, da se ^ je v svoji mladosti učil nekaj 8 časa kovaške obrti, kajti on je bil ' vodnik tistih, ki so skovali svo- 1 bodno republiko češkoslovaško, ko so prej pomagali razbiti pre- r perelo Avstro-Ogrsko monarhi-jo. ; Značilno je, da je češkoslovaška danes najbolje urejena iz- * med vseh nasledstvenih držav in ‘ da se iz umazanih valov dikta-j^ torstva, ki se razlivajo po Evro- t pi, dviga kot zelen otok, kjer!' uspeva prava demokracija, če-! škoslovaška je srečna, ker je ^ imela ob svojem začetku take;’ modre graditelje in pozneje ta- J ke izborne državnike-voditelje, ’ med katerimi je zavzemal od- , | 1 lično mesto pokojni Masaryk. Masaryk se je Kot sin graj- j skega kočijaža in grajske ku- ^ harice rodil dne 7. marca 1850 v Hodoninu na Moravskem. Oče , :je bil po rodu Slovak, mati pa I ! Čehinja. Po dovršenih ljudskih šolah se je šel učit kovaštva, vendar se je pozneje z velikimi I žrtvami preril skozi višje šole . lin v starosti 29 let je že pouče-j j v.a.l,,.na univerzi na Dunaju, tvi leta pozneje pa je dribil profesorsko mesto na češki univer- 1 zi v Pragi. Profesor Masaryk se je odlikoval z globokim znanjem, ob- ; enem pa tudi z globokim smislom za pravico in resnico. Kadar se je šlo za obrambo pravice in resnice, se ni bal zameriti nikomur. Leta 1882 je zelo razburil mnoge patriotične Čehe, ko je dokazal, da so neki dokumenti o češki zgodovini ponarejeni. Leta 1889 je spet razburil javnost s tem, da je branil 1 nekega revnega židovskega čev-! ljarja, ki j,e bil obdolžen grdega verskega zločina. Leta 1907, ko je bil že poslanec v dunajskem parlamentu, si je nakopal silno jezo avstrijskih vladnih, krogov, ko je v slovečem vele-! izdaj niškem procesu v Zagrebu dokazal, da je vlada lažnive ob-težilne dokumente sama sfabri-cirala. V dunajskem parlamentu je bil neizprosen borec za pravico, posebno za pravico na-pram Slovanom, ki so bili od j avstrijske vlade vedno zapo-i stavljani. Kdor nekoliko poznaj avstrijsko parlamentarno zgodovino iz predvojne dobe, ve,' da so maloštevilni Slovenci imeli j ravno v čeških poslancih najboljše zagovornike. In najboljši | prijatelji, ki jih ima danes Ju-j goslavija v Evropi, so Čehi. ,1 Ob nastanku svetovne vojne j se je Masaryk umaknil v ino- j j zemstvo, ker je vedel, da je pri j . avstrijskih oblastih tako slabo j zapisan, da mu kaže samo ječa. j | j Mož je vedel, da se je s svetovno i vojno pričel začetek konca trhle Avstro-Ogrske monarhije in da morajo avstrijski Slovani začeti | graditi načrte za svojo osamosvojitev. Potoval je v Rusijo, Francijo in Anglijo, da pridobi zaveznike za načrt svobodne Če-' škoslovaške. češki vojni begun-’ ci ali ujetniki pa so se medtem ‘ borili na strani zaveznikov za ’ strmoglavljenje centralnih sil. ' Leta 1918 je Masaryk prišel tu-’ di v Ameriko, kjer je stopil v ‘ stike s skupinami, ki so se za-1 vzemale za osvoboditev avstrij-(Dalje na 2. strani) VSAK PO SVOJE (Nadaljevanje s 1. strani) dežjem padale žabe izpod neba. Malo nerodno je, če pade mrzla n žaba človeku za vrat, toda še j neprimerno bolj nerodno je vj. Španiji in na Kitajskem, kjeria dežujejo bombe izpod neba. \ z V Londonu se je neki W. F. s James tako zanimal za pasje j-dirke, da je zanemarjal svoj J v dom, in žena ga je tožila za lo- ^ čitev zakona. Sodnik je dal možu 14 dni časa naj se odloči, dali hoče 'obdržati psa ali ženo. Po globokem premišljevanju se % je možak odločil za psa. x c V listih včasih čitamo poro- , čila o rojakih, ki so se podali v stari kraj z namenom, da za , ;vedno tam ostanejo. Nič ne ( rečem, nameni so najbrž dobri, , toda izkušnje dokazujejo, da je ( tisti “vedno” v mnogih primerih , I skrajšan na par mesecev. \y 1 Ameriški listi so te dni kot 1 I posebno novost poročali dejstvo, \ da plemenite krave neke mlekar- -ske družbe nosijo hlače, ki jih i varujejo muh in drugih mrče- i sov. To je morda lepo in praktično, toda novo ni. V vseh časih so gotove krave hlače nosile, med njimi tudi take, ki hodijo i po dveh nogah. Znanstveniki so izračunali, da 1 bi nam naše sonce, v soglasju s j svojo velikostjo, moralo dajati j 30 odstotkov več gorkote kot nam je v resnici pošilja. Dobro, da nam možaki niso tega povedali v juliju ali avgustu! Prijatelj Cahej pravi, da v Clevelandu imamo marsikaj, česar drugod nimajo, toda manjka nam neke zelo potrebne institucije. To institucijo naj bi predstavljal nekak “ponedeljkov s^lun”, ki bi operiral samo oh ponedeljkih in bi honoriral tikete- nedeljskih piknikov in veselic, kateri dragiVn rojakom zaostanejo po žepih. Ti ti-keti dandanes predstavljajo veliko narodno izgubo, ker postanejo neveljavni točno ob zaključku piknika ali veselice. Vanje je bil vložen pošten ameriški denar, toda ko godci zaigrajo “Home sweet home”, so vredni približno toliko, kot številke v knjižicah raznih zamrznjenih bank. A.J.T. RAZNO IZ AMERIKE IN INOZEMSTVA (Nadaljevanje s 1. strani) morejo vršiti le na lastno odgo-, vornost. To pomeni, da jih ame-[ riška vlada ne bo branila, če . pridejo v kakšne neprilike v ja-L ponsko-kilajski vojni zoni. ! - ROOSEVELT IN LEWIS I Zadnje čase je vladalo neka-l ko napeto razmerje med predsednikom. Rooseveltom in J. L. Lewisom, voditeljem C. I. O. t unij, posebno po Lewisovemu govoru na Delavski dan, v kate-’ rem se je pritožil, da predsed-j nik ni tako naklonjen organiziranemu delavstvu kot bi moral biti. Pretekli teden pa je bil Lewis pozvan v Belo hišo in se je dalje časa razgovarjal s predsednikom. Vsebina njunih razgovorov ni znana, vendar se sodi, da je ta konferenca prej o-menjeno napetost precej ublažila. PRIMARNE VOLITVE V mestnih primarnih volitvah v New Yorku, ki so se vršile pretekli teden, so izvojevali pristaši New Deala veliko zmago. Senator Copeland, županski kandidat in velik nasprotnik New Deala, je bil grdo poražen. Nominacijo za župana sta dobila sedanji župan La Guardia in Mahoney, ki sta bila sicer kandidata različnih strank, toda sta oba pristaša New-Deala. Splošno se sodi, da bo La Guar-dia pri rednih volitvah v no- vembru ponovno izvoljen za žu- : pana mesta New Yorka. V Clevelandu, O., se bodo vr- : šile mestne primarne volitve v torek 28. septembra. V teh pri- : marnih volitvah bosta izbrana : dva županska kandidata in GG]: kandidatov za mestne odbornike ali councilmane. Pri rednih vo-i litvah v novembru bosta mogla | za vsako mesto kandidirati le tista dva kandidata, ki bosta pri primarnih, volitvah dobila največ glasov, in sicer brez ozira, katerim strankam pripadata. VOZNIŠKE LICENCE Vsak voznik avtomobila v državi Ohio mora imeti posebno vozniško licenco (drivers’ license), ki velja za eno leto. Lani izdane licence veljajo do 30. septembra 1937. Dne 1. oktobra mora imeti vsak avtomobilist v državi Ohio novo licenco, ki strne 40 centov. Rojaki v državi Ohio, ki imajo avtomobile, naj si ne pozabijo pravočasno nabaviti licenc, da se izognejo more-J bitnim neprilikam. Postava zahteva, da mora vsak voznik avtomobila, ki je registriran v državi Ohio, imeti licenco s seboj, da se na zahtevo izkaže z njo na pni m prometnim oblastim. NEODVISNOST MEHIKE Sosedna republika Mehika je dne 15. septembra slovesno praznovala 127. obletnico svoje neodvisnosti. Mehika se je otresla španske nadvlade pred 127 leii kakor se je naša republika iznebila angleške nadvlade pred 161 leti... POMORSKA PATRULJA . Po Sredozemskem morju križari te čase okrog 200 francoskih in angleških vojnih ladij, l:i , so pripravljene potopiti vsako • podmornico, katera bi skušala ■ napasti kak tovorni parnik.

Toda izmed nekaterih črnih oblakov nas gleda mnogo jasnega neba, posebno v tej deželi. Letina, ki je že pospravljena, je bila bogata, in ona, | ki še dozoreva po poljih, vrtovih, sadovnjakih in vinogradih, kaže slično bogastvo. Pač so vremenske nezgode tu in tam napravile nekaj škode, toda na splošno dežela ni bila dosti prizadeta. Vsega bo dosti in preveč. Bili so štrajki in izprtja in so še, toda kljub temu se ! na splošno industrijski in trgovski obrat približuje višini I ^ tako zvane prosperitete. Delavske razmere se boljšajo in, kar je največ vredno, delavstvo se vedno bolj zaveda svojih pravic in se organizira. Zavest, da če je organizacija dobra za delodajalce, mora biti tudi za delavce, prodira v vedno širše#,delavske sloje. To je na vsak način razveseljivo. Pri tem je treba tudi omeniti, da si je delavstvo s pomočjo naklonjene administracije izvojevalo važne pravice, ki so zasigurane v federalnih zakonih. Niso bili sprejeti vsi delavstv^koristni zakonski načrti, toda začetek je bil storjen/ m sicer dober začetek. Drugo še pride, če bo delavstvo zavedno in odločno. In na to smemo računati, kajti velike mase ameriškega delavstva danes niso tisto, kar so bile pred depresijo. Po veliki depresiji, ki je pretresla ves ameriški finančni sistem, so se v tem oziru završile mnoge koristne izpremembe. Vseh ni mogoče na tem mestu naštevati, toda za nas male ljudi ja posebno važna federalna garancija za vloge na bankah, ki pripadajo federalni zavaro- • valni korporaciji, česar še ni bilo nikoli prej v zgodovini te republike. V'splošnem se lahko reče, da se je tekom zadnjih par let posvečalo več pozornosti koristim malih ljudi, med katere nas spada ogromna večina, kot prej v dolgih desetletjih. In ta večina, če bo hotela, bo lahko zahtevala tako pozornost zase tudi v bodočnosti. Malodušnost ljudskih mas, ki je bila tako izrazita tekom najtemnejših dni velike depresije, je zdaj v splošnem stvar zgodovine. Narod ima spet zaupanje v svojo moč in v svojo bodočnost. Pred leti, ko je bilo priseljevanje iz starega kraja ustavljeno, smo trepetali za bodočnost naših podpornih organizacij. Dandanes smo se večinoma otresli tega strahu. V naši tu rojeni mladini smo našli skoro neizčrpen vir novih članov in se ga že pridno poslužujemo. In uspešni bomo, če bomo le znali sisteme naših organizacij pravilno prilagoditi novim razmeram. Pri J. S. K. Jed noti smo imeli letos v aprilu, maju in juniju veliko kampanjo za pridobivanje novega članstva. Kampanja, ki je bila predhodnica mladinske konvencije, je izredno dobro uspela, saj nam je prinesla skoro tri tisoč novih članov v obeh oddelkih. Vsi vemo, da je bilo za dosego tolikega uspeha treba ogromnega dela društvenih uradnikov in drugih agilnih elanov m članic, zato smo sklepali, da bo zaključku kampanje logično sledilo nekaj im s: cev oddiha. Pa smo se motili, in vsi dobri člani smejo biti veseli, da smo se motili. Naš glavni tajnik Anton Zbašnik, ki se je nedavno po uradnih poslih mudil v raznih mestih in se je za malo časa ustavil tudi v Clevelandu, je pova-dal uredniku, da se kampanja, ki je bila pred nekaj tedni oficielno zaključena, kar neče ustaviti. Dan za dnem da prihajajo v glavni urad prošnje novih članov. Can you beat that! Kdo ne bi zaplaval v rožnatem optimizmu, ko sliši take vesele novice! In kdo izmed nas ne bi bil ponosen, da je del ugledne in napredujoče J. S. K. Jednote, ki ima tako žive, agilne, lojalne in navdušene člane! Vsi se zavedamo, da marsikaj v tej deželi še od daleč ni tako, kot bi moralo biti, ali kakor si mi predstavljamo, da bi moralo biti, da so potrebne mnoge izboljšave danes in bodo potrebne tudi v bodočnosti, toda, če hočemo biti pošteni, moramo priznati, da vse le ni tako črno, kakor nam hočejo pokazati profesionalni pesimisti. V gornjem je bilo navedenih nekaj posebno izrazitih vzrokov, zakaj smo lahko optimistični. In, ker smo optimisti, smo prepričani, da bo teh vzrokov za optimizem vedno več. Zato zremo jasnih obrazov v bodočnost. ofs \\ s' Pi’oc polja, sadonosnike in vinograde. Nekaj tednov po nesreči pa je vinska trta pognala nove mladike, ki ko nastavile polno grozdja.

Svojo vi- H soko pozicijo je obdržal vse do 14. decembra 1935, ko je zaradi starosti stopil v pokoj. Njegovo mesto je zavzel sedanji predsednik Edvard Beneš, ki je bil že prej njegova desna roka, in je danes smatran za enega najboljših evropskih državnikov. češkoslovaškemu narodu pa je Masaryk še vedno Ostal častni predsednik ter je zavzemal in bo zavzemal mesto, kakršno zavzema v A-meriki George Washington, čehoslovaki ne bodo nikdar pozabili “očeta” svoje republike. Masaryk je bil mož svetovnega obzorja in, kot že omenjeno, neustrašen boritelj za pravico, resnico in demokraci-, jo. Bil je učenjak, mislec, Slovan, državnik, a pred vsem človek, ki mu je človečanstvo prvo. Zato je bil spoštovan pri vseh svobodo, pravico in resnico ljubečih ljudeh. Kaka sre-S ča bi bila za ves svet, če bi vse države imele take zmožne in idealne voditelje!

Pavel Viskup, ki je zdaj obhodil že vse južne kraje. V Južni Srbiji in črni gori je našel okrog 200 stoletnikov. Vsakega je izprašal o načinu njegovega življenja, o prehrani in delu, ter tako ugotovil, da so vsi ti naj starejši Jugosloveni najskromnejše živeli in pretrpeli tudi mnogo gorja. Prehrana teh stoletnikov ni v nobenem skladu z znanstvenimi teorijami, zakaj nekateri stoletniki so se vsa svoja dolga leta hranili samo s črnim kruhom in sočivjem, užili so le malo mesa, zato pa več mleka in sira. Uživanje domačega žganja in kajenje ni oviralo dosege visoke starosti. Med tru mo stoletnikov je posebno zanimiv po zapiskih češkega zdravnika črnogorski pastir Jo-vo Vujovič, ki je star 102 leti. Ta mož pripoveduje in je na njegovem obrazu tudi vidno, da je pred kakimi 50 leti postal žr tev strašne bolezni — raka, ki se mu je priglodal od nosa do čelnih kosti. Takratni zdravniki so menili, da je mož izgubljen, a neki vaški padar je Vujoviču priporočil, naj kuha neke posebne rastline ter s sokom izpira rane.

The dance will commence at 7:30 p. m., and due to some difficulties we are having Jack Burns and his orchestra to play instead ’ of Joe Umek. I know that everyone will be pleased with his smooth rhythm. The admission is only 25 cents a person. By the way, a little birdie told me that a Pathfinder was visiting in Struthers, O. She is none other than Mary Krall. Yours truly is sorry that he could not have met her, for he was out celebrating Bro. Frank Glavic’s wedding. Frank was married on the 11th and we all wish him and his bride the best of luck. Cardinals, please take notice. I request that all members return their tickets to me on September 24. Incidentally, how are the members making out with their sales? Are you selling many tickets? Sister Amelia Slabe claims they are going like hot cakes. She has sold 20 already. I hear that we will have a crowd from Girard; also from Bessemer and Sharon. In conclusion, please bear this in mind: Come to your meetings every second Friday of the month, pay your lodges dues on or before the 25th of each month. And a word to our neighboring lodges: Don’t forget our dance on September 25th. I hope to see you all there. Edward T. Glavic, Sec’y No. 229, SSCU Geo.

All members are invited to attend. Agnes Kardell, Sec’y 16 Years Average Term of Mortgage The average term of a mortgage insured by the Federal H o u s i ng Administration is slightly over 16 years, while the largest number of mortgages written is for 19^ years and more than half of those insured are for terms ranging from 17 to 20 years. The long-term mortgage receives more public preference, particularly when for new construction, Housing Administration records showing 71.9 per cent of new construction mortgages are for a 17- to 20-year duration and 21 per cent in the 13- to 16-year bracket. Small Boy — Say, Dad, my teacher seems to take a great deal of interest in you. Dad (interested) — How’s that, son?

However, Little Stan brings you to the final day. It is the day of the grand picnic, climaxing the three-day affair. Early Sunday morning most juveniles have to themselves. It is a perfect picnic day. Hardly had dinner been complete when the flashily-dressed bands started to get-together, preparing for the parade. To the Home Office, where everybody gathered in order that the march might begin on time. While waiting around many more pictures were snapped, and everybody watched the proceedings. Then, the call to arms The Junior High school band was first—that is following the flag bearers and color guard. Little Albert Pechaver carried the colors, and Bernard Hutar and Joseph Popovich were the guards ... stalwart young men. Supreme Officers gathered next in line, then the 86 delegates, followed by members of the juvenile department of Ely, and the snappy Ely Drum and Bugle corps bringing up the rear. Little Stan was also in line, while Doc Zgonc tried his hand at taking movie shots for Stan of the convention parade ... and he proved a pretty fair technician, as the films turned , out all right. Little Stan can live i the convention over and over . just by turning on the good ole . movie machine ... and he hopes . that some day you people maj t see it ... You can never tell 5 ’cause Little Stan does ge’ - around ... even once in a while With bands blaring, anc 3 marchers parading in time, thi i cavalcade . . . one-hundred pe: 3 cent South Slavonic Catholii j Union, continues on its way thri Ely’s thoroughfares. At the depot, buses wait to transport the people to the picnic grounds, where already is heard the shout of “tickets!” The scene shifts to the Point ...a peninsula surrounded by water .. . picturesque and beautiful. Delegates hop off the buses to inspect the scene. Most of them worried about that sp6ech they were to give over the “mike.” Many worked overtime, preparing the addresses, while others took no time to prepare, but rose, ready for the occasion. The Ely Municipal Band, directed by Prof. Frank V. DiNi-no, rendered music, adding color to the affair, and everywhere was seen the festive spirit. Chisholm was very well represented with two bus-loads of people. Also well represented were Soudan and Gilbert, plus several from Chisholm, McKinley, and Eveleth, Minn. A huge thi’ong was present. Every stand was busy. “Ticket salesmen” were literally swarmed under by the demand, and didn’t have any trouble getting rid of over 20,000 tickets all day. Throngs gathered under the welcoming shade of the beer stands, where bartenders had their hands full. In the meantime, delegates looked around, gathered in groups, and snapped pictures. Then to the speakers’ 'stand where Bro. Anton Zbasnik, supreme secretary, presided. Several supreme officers gave talks, and Mayor Jack Peshel officially welcomed all visitors. Then came the delegates’ talks. People of this community stood by until the end, waiting eagerly to hear what these 86 happy delegates had to say—and they weren’t disappointed. Then to the dance. Little Stan, Doc Zgonc, and Johnny Pechek were taking care of the doors, and Frankie Kromars’ popular swingsters were supplying the music. In no time at all the dance-pavilion was filled, and ; The Call to Arms! , By Little Stan Ely, Minn. — Fall time! < ' This crisp, cool weather < ' adds that zip and vitality < ' into one’s body, and the ef- • !

It was getting towards six p. m., and still the crowd stayed. Little Stan didn’t go home for supper even . . . stood by instead, and ate a couple of sandwiches . . . was too excited to eat anyway! The dance was closed until eight o’clock that evening. In the meantime, everybody either went back to town, or just hung around until the dance pavilion was re-opened. Eight bells, the orchestra reappeared, and the ball was on. Many danced . . . the pavilion was jammed. Even Little Stan took time out to have a couple dances—one with Rose Bano-vetz, delegate from Round-up, Montana. Which reminds—sister Helen Okoren of Denver did not get to dance with Little Stan . .. “she had heard that he was another Astaire.” In order . not to spoil that “rep” Little Stan didn’t dance. Heh! Heh! But he was pretty busy. Maybe next time. Evening wore on . . . mingled with happy, carefree fun of dancing... and soon it was time to retire. The concessions had run out of both tickets, beer, and other refreshments . . . and the hour dragged on. Waiting, and almost the last ones to leave were Police officer Tub Bano-vetz, who by the way will play against the Chicago Bears with an All-Star team; his brother Bernard, and cousin delegate Rose Banovetz. In town, stopped at Curly’s Sweet Shoppe, and after a lot of dickering and fun, left for home to get a good night’s rest. Already, the thought of going on the morrow had caused faces of juvenile delegates to fall. How fast the time went by ... and what great fun this was . . . Truly the greatest vacation they had had in a long time! FAREWELL Monday morning, the weather stood-up ... in the same shape. Nice bright sun .. . and comfortably warm. Delegates scurried around for their last bits of souvenirs, and to the Home Office where they received their souvenir pictures of the convention. Back to the Hotel to pack, and to make sure that they didn’t leave anything behind. Dinnertime, many were ready-packed and set to go. Then to the depot... the Iron Horse puffed and hissed, ready ' to take the delegates back to ' their homes. Almost as large a ' ci-owd as that welcoming group were at the station to say farewell. Little Stan looked around . . . tears came down several delegates’ faces as they dreaded the thought of leaving this summer play-ground. For a moment it seemed as though Little Stan and sis.

Jennie Cikulin “The March of Fraternalism” From an address by C. P. Savoie, Secretary, Societe l’Assomption, before Canadian Fraternal Ass’n., London, Ont. Life Insurance Sold Through a Mental Picture What a man does not understand he opposes. That has been ! one of the greatest obstruction i to progress down through the centuries. The writer can remember when as a very small boy the first telephone was brought into his town. The elders of the neighborhood in which he lived scoffed at this new-fangled contraption. Their general argument was: “We’ve got along without it all of our lives so what is the sense in going to the expense of it now.” One does not have to be very old ; to recall the hoots and derision which marked the appearance on the streets of the first “horseless buggy,” as the auto was called back in the 1890’s. The life insurance man senses this opposition perhaps more than the average salesman. The prospect does not feel that he needs life insurance. Why? be-1 cause he is not really informed as to its value to himself, his family and his business. This point is well brought out by Editor Bradley in a recent issue j of the Home Life Ec^ho, from which we quote: “Life Insurance requires real salesmanship. Because it is an intangible, the agent can’t put life insurance on a man’s desk in the same way that the clothing salesman can put a suit of clothes on a man’s back. But when the imagination of the agent begins to work, then the pictures he can draw are from intangible pictures—the pictures of bread and coal, and a| roof over the head, the picture of well-fed, well-clothed contented children on their way to school, the picture of a mother at homo with her children, where God intended her to be, instead of a mother out battling the world! for a living while her little brood ! is deprived of a mother’s cart! and devotion. The big picture for the prospect is the picture] of what life insurance does and! not the picture of what life in- j surance is—policies, premiums, i non-forfeiture provisions, a;;1 some agents can only see it.” — Fraternal Monitor. 1 (Continued from last week) Picture yourself unemployed for some time and absolutely unable to secure work. Imagine sitting in the midst of your loved ones, your wife and cild-ren, seeing them in want and in dire need, with no means of procuring food and clothing for them. You have insurance policies whose premiums you can no longer pay, policies that have been in force for a good many years that you are compelled, by force of circumstances, to lapse; you would even sell that protection, for what will a man not do when he is in utter necessity? But^ you cannot do it, you are barred from drawing a few dollars because your certificates do not provide for cash surrender values or cash loans. You will be offered perhaps a paid-up policy or extended insurance, but that does not! solve the problem you are ac-i tually facing. You need one1 thing, you want it because it justly belongs to you, that which you could have gotten something else that you do not want because, under the circumstances, it is of no value to you. Needless for me to say what your feelings would be towards that society or company. Dividends Are Big Advertizers Most of the fraternal societies have a large surplus avail? able for dividends, and a good many are now waiving one or more mortuary payments every year. As fraternal societies are organized and carried on solely for the mutual benefit of their members and not for profit, all surplus a-vailable for distribution must be returned to the members in some form or other. It is most gratifying to know that fraternal societies have a large surplus due to the excellence of the business written. This is reflected in the low rate of mortality. The high rate of interest earnings has also added to their surplus. It seems to me that they now are in a position to broaden out and increase their activities on a large scale, and decorate their insurance contracts with “frills” that cost very little but are big advertisers. Dividends properly constructed should increase each year. When this is done there is inducement towards persistency because the longer a member stays in the society the lower the cost of his protection. Under the present system a member of 30 who has been a member for 10 years can well claim that it is not fair to waive the same amount of payment in his case as it does in the case of the man who entered at the same age, pays the same contribution and who has been a member but two or three years. He would be right in his contention. If there is an insurance organization that should give to its assured all what, in equity, is due him, it is the fraternal society. It seems to me that not only fraternal societies should adopt properly calculated dividend schedules, but adopt the planj of paying dividends under all forms of contracts, instead of waiving one or more mortuary payments. I am convinced that if they made it a practice of distributing surplus by checks, they would get much more publicity and would place themselves in a position to compete with old line companies. As a general rule, members do not lay much stress on the fact that they are relieved of a contribution but, they certainly do remember when through the lo- cal lodge officers, they are given a check which they did not anticipate receiving, especially if the amount increases every year. They remember the latter act and generally forget the other. Emphasize Lodge Activities If we look up the definition of “Fraternal Society”, we shall find that it is an organization carried on solely for the benefit of its members and their beneficiaries, that it must operate on a lodge system with ritualistic form of work, a representative form of government, etc. Can a “Fraternal Society” do away with any one of the essentials of its nature and still continue to retain its character? Can it rid itself of its ritualistic form of work, ceremonies of initiation, the holding of regular meetings and still continue to live with renewed vigor, with a higher vision and ideal ? Is it not through the lodge that brotherly kindness and interest is manifested and expressed? Is not the holding of regular meetings a potential factor in keeping the fraternal system alive? Yet there has been in recent years a tendency on the part of some societies to minimize the importance of lodge activity which, in my opinion, is a mistake. The lodge has always been and always will be the center of fraternal progress for, it is at the meetings that the members learn the great principles upon which fraternalism has been organized, its past achievements and the wonderful road opened to the future, if all the members, young and old, willingly, contribute their share, not only to make the meetings interesting and instructive* but also to make of their meeting place, a place of attraction and interest. Is it not true that our best fraternalists are those that attend the lodge meetings regularly? Is it not also true that societies which are showing increases in their memberships are those which have laid emphasis on the importance of lodge meetings and activities? (To be continued) With the G. W.’s Cleveland, 0. — Once definite plans have been made by a lodge to hold a dance, it is a good policy to start early with publicizing the event, for the degree of success of the undertaking depends a great deal on the interest taken by the members behind the affair. On Saturday, November 13, George Washington lodge, No. 180, SSCU will hold a dance at Twilight Ballroom. The administrative board is looking after the details and it can assure the dancing public a grand evening of entertainment. Members of George Washington lodge owe it to themselves to patronize this dance as the proceeds derived from this event shall go into the lodge treasury, which, after all, belongs to the members. It is not the purpose of this article to emphasize the G. W. dance on November 13, merely to see so many words in print, but to impress upon the G. W. members the need for co-operation in selling this dance to the public. It is hardly fair for a certain few to shoulder the bulk of the burden when the benefit to be derived from this undertaking will be shared equally by all members. The outside public already is familiar with the calibre of entertainment provided by the G. W.’s. It is only necessary to inform our friends, relatives, acquaintances, etc., that we shall hold a dance, and that they are cordially invited to attend. Math,ew Molk, vice-Pres.

LITTLE STAN’S ARTICLE (Continued from Page 3) Out around the last bend in the railroad, and suddenly this little community was strangely quiet! The Second Bienniel Juvenile Convention of the South Slavonic Catholic Union of America was over. But the accomplishments will linger on! Everlasting memories! Lodge Membership East, Palestine, O. — There are always some members who contemplate dropping their lodge membership. Asked as to why they contemplate such a move, they can give very little definite reason. These people simply say that they have become bored with the whole thing. They speak with an attitude of indifference and without very much consideration. Fraternals, such as the SSCU, offer not only life insurance, but sick benefits and splendid social contact. These are offered within the price range of the workingman’s pocket-book. A gi'eat value. A bargain with which thousands are immensely pleased. Then, after makmg such an investment, wljiy should some consider it so lightly ? How many people have dropped their membership in the past only to live to see the day when they were sorry for doing so? How many dependents have suffered as a result of such a move? A lodge membership is not a luxury to enjoy or do without at will, but an investment that will lighten the burdens that sometime must befall us all. A wise one is the member who treasures'his SSCU membership. J oe Golicic No. 41, SSCU F. H. Administration WASHINGTON, D. C., — A major offensive on the traditional poor design, ill-conceived plan and bad construction of the small home, has just been concluded by the Federal Housing Administration, it was announced here today, as the first series of 22 small home planning conferences came to an end. The conferences, conducted in as many cities, were directed by Howard Leland Smith, Chief of the FHA’s Architectural Section, for the purpose of improving design, plan and construction and thus elevating the standard of the one class of construction that has suffered most from these three building evils. More than 8,000 builders, bankers and real estate dealers have participated in these conferences, bringing into the small home improvement campaign the groups most interested in dwelling construction. “It has been common practice for years,” Mr. Smith said, “to build small homes without the aid or services of competent architects. The results have been far less than satisfactory from the viewpoint of the mortgage lending agency and ultimately the home buyer himself. Bad design, unfortunately, has frequently been a characteristic of the single family dwelling. It has been our cheif aim to lift the standard of design and plan and to suggest the very real importance of architectural supervision and good, sound construction. Continued indifference to good design and plan is just another invitation to neighborhood blight. Our effort has been to bring to the building industry the proper methods of correcting old, established practices in order to attain the desired objective.” Eg.ch small home planning conference consists of two addresses and an open forum. Those attending hear a discussion of the potential market for small homes in the particular locality and an outline of principles to be followed in the planning of small homes. Talk charts and material taken from FHA Technical Bulletin No. 4, “Principles of Planning Small Houses”, together with photographs and cost breakdowns of houses constructed in accordance with information included in the bulletin are utilized during the conferences. “Those attending the conferences,” Mr. Smith said, “are urged to take advantage of the advisory service made available by the Housing Administration in our local offices or to consult with members of the Conference staff who, as a rule, remain in the local Housing Administration office for seeveral days following the conference. This advisory service provides an opportunity to improve plans presented with applications for mortgage insurance and it also gives the applicant some idea whether or not his plans conform to the property standards and the minimum construction requirements. Such requirements must be met before insurance will be allowed.” Small home planning conferences have been held in Baltimore, Md.; Newark, N. J.; Jamaica, N. Y.; Boston, Mass.; Albany, N. Y..; Buffalo, N. Y.; Detroit, Mich.; Chicago, 111.; St. Louis, Mo.; Springfield, Mo.; Kansas City, Mo.; Salt Lake City, Utah; Seattle, Wash.; Portland, Ore,; San Francisco and Oakland, Cal.; Los Angeles, Cal.; San Diego, Cal.; Phoenix, Ariz,; Denver, Colo.; St. Paul, Minn.; Indianapolis, Ind.; and Cincinnati, O. Requests for conferences, Mr. Smith said, are continuing to be received at the Washingtra offices <}f the Housing Administration. Blood and Battle Field A World War Chronicle By IVAN MATIČIČ From the Slovene by VALENTINE OREHEK • (Continuation) At last when we have almost despaired of finding anything we stum ble across a shed in which a number of horses are stamping. Knocking down the boards that hem them in we give each a smart whack on the rump and they are off. We are not exactly happy with our selection for the place smells strongly of its late tenants and the rats scamper in abundance. The following days are wet and foggy and our spirits duly reflect their op-ressive influence. It rains considerably and this adds to our misery which is already great enough due to the scarcity of food. This only applies to our regiment for the others are fed rations the sight of which we have forgotten. The horses of the Magyars are fed with more consideration than we. Our commandant Maretid, who otherwise isn’t such a bad fellow, nevertheless, doesn’t concern himself with our welfare and it is alike to him whether we chew stones or gnaw tree bark. A quarter of a loaf of corn bread is apportioned each one of us at mess and a dish of lukewarm water that passes for soup and in which a piece of meat and some saurkraut sadly repose. In the morning we get some water whose only claim to distinction from the plain article is that it has a brownish color. And this is all. One day the colonel leaves us and the lieutenant colonel, a Magyar, assumes command. This man turns out to be a white crow among officers. He shakes his head and declares that he has never seen so hungry and woe-begone a regiment and what is better he does something about it. He strides into the kitchens at Suto and Rublje and berates the provision officers roundly. Prom this time on we receive food equal in qauntity and quality with that of the other regiments; but this only so long as MaretiČ does not return. Our horses have fared badly before too, being obljged to eat the straw that our men wrapped around their legs and feet. On the outskirts of this town I discover the graves of Scherling, Kolma-jer and tavdohar in a churchyard. The two officers share a single grave upon which is inscribed the epithet, “Grave of Heroes.” Beside it is Stavdohar’s resting place. On January 18, 1917 two regiments of our Division are scheduled to carry assault upon Fajti Hrib and Špacapan. It Is on this occasion as we push past Lipa and enter the pine wood on Sector 503 that the full severity of the Krasian windstorm overtakes us. This in itself is bad enough but what makes it hardly endurable is that we are inadequately clothed and that the comforts of a fire are denied us. Neither are we allowed to erect our tents on the few stops that we make for fear that it delay and render instant action difficult. Far ahead the guns thunder and fields of racing flame sweep over the ridge qf Fajti. On a road coming out of Lipa an immense 42 cm. mortar is belching destruction. In its fearsome roar mountains tremble and forests howl and the dreadful echo. In its chaos-inducing crash fortresses crumble and one’s heart stops within him. With its quota of shells released it disappears yet this very night. Our attack on Fajti Hrib is repulsed but we are successful at pacapan. The effort tho costs us countless dead and wounded. Toward morning the frenzy subsides and it grows peaceful again. We are glad when permission to peg down our tents in the frozen soil is granted us. The next day we go into hiding in Rihemberg. We find it evacuated of its inhabitants and the plundered houses turned into stables and gypsy quarters where cheerful fires bid us welcome. The windows, doors and other moveable objects have all been converted into fuel by the soldiers and the falling snow drives in in gusts. Nearby, Russian and Serbian prisoners are repairing a road. They are a dishevelled lpt shivering from want and cold. The Russians beg bread and cigarettes from us saying that their sole chance of acquiring a square meal is in the event of a horse’s demise by accident or otherwise which same is a windfall for them and cause for celebration. The Serbs are not at all communicative and hold off with extreme reserve. They glower at us from beneath darkened brows and contemptuously disdain to beg or complain. “Kako ide bračo?” ... How goes it brother?’’ “Slabo za vas Švabe . . . Bad for you Austrians!” “Gladni ste siromaki . . . Poor fellows you are hungry." “Pa gladni ste vi svi i gladna je sva vaša švapska država . . . You yourselves are hungry and so is your whole Austrian nation!” A few days of loafing and then we are recalled into the lines and the experiences to be met with there. It is a little worse now for it is exceedingly cold and the storms come oftener and blow more sharply. Two weeks of this and we are sent into Sector 503 and its vermin infested barracks. Our telephone patrols are sadly depleted so Captain Czepan suggests that several men who understand German be picked from the companies. In pursuant of thjs one of the sergeants is combing a group for possible candidates:— “,What is your occupation in civil life?” “Who me? ... a farmer.” "Nothing doing with you." “And you?” “A miner.” pioy^ Where were you crop1 “In Trbovljah.” “Good enough.” ^ j “And you were a hlap*®’. g i note: “hlapec” is a word is used in its real se ^ are instances, as witness > present volume, where » j J convey impotent and shaw ty.) weren’t you?” I “No, I was an avskneht, r is a corruption of the knecht”: a man who does f and rough labor incide ^ house or establishment.
