Nobena diplomatska težava ne more slabiti enotne borbe Združenih narodov proti Nemcem in Italijanom. Ta borba ni sad diplomatskih aktov in vojnih sporazumov, ta enotnost ni posledica neke suhe discipline, veliko več je: enotna bojna fronta Združenih narodov je rojena iz živega prepričanja, da sta nacizem in fašizem najgloblje zlo našega rodu, ki vodita v sužnost duhovnega in materialnega življenja. Borba proti Hitler-Musso-linijevi diktaturi je borba za o-snovno svobodo narodov. Zato ts borba gre iz življenja za življenje in je nobena dogodivščina ne more slabiti. Vsi ste priča, da je tako.

Slika na vseh bojiščih je ena ln ists: povsod nastopajo Združeni narodi kot enotna sila. ki Ima samo en cilj zlomiti ln uničiti Hltler-Museo-llnijevo carstvo.

Ta korak jo bU storjen, ker se Isti dan ob dveh popoldne prične proslava vaeslo-vanskega dneva. Torej ste vsi prošeni, da to upoštevate.' Prosim vas tudi, da so udeležite te proslsve v čim večjem številu. Kar ie t'če programa, ste že gotovo čltsli v časopisih, brat Kobi pa je Že poročal v tedenski Prosveti. Pred kratkim so odšli nadaljnji člani k vojakom: George Vu-kovich, Frank Menart in Albin F. Boben. Torej je od našega društva enajst članov pri vojakih. Družina J. Boben ima štiri sinove, vsi že pri vojskih ln vsi člani našega društvu. Pri našem društvu imamo sklep, da se na vaški seji dvigne ime Člana, kl dobi dolur, če Je navsoč. Ker Je bilo na zadnjih dveh sejah dvignjeno ime Člana-vojaka, je društvo sklenilo, da se vsakemu vojaku pošlje dolar. Do sedaj sta že dvs nuša vojaku dobila po dolurju, namreč Ed Gerlovlch in Stanley Radose-vich. Upajmo, du bo tega klanja kmalu konec, da se povrnejo mirni časi in da pridejo vsi naši članl-vojaki zdravi in veseli med svoje drage. Angola Blatnik, tajnica.

Pokojni hrat John Shudek je bil znan daleč naokrog in njegov pogreb je bil tako velik, da že 23 let nisem videl takega. Pokopan je bil v nedeljo popoldne. Tisti dan je bila silna vročina. Ko so bili opravljeni obredi, se je začel premikati sprevod. Avtov je bilo ne vem koliko—jaz sem bil zadnji. Ko pridemo kako miljo od pokopališča, se je stemnilo in nastala je taka nevihta, da so se ljudje razpršili na vse strani. Ker sem bil zadnji, na pokopališču sploh nisem mogel priti blizu, da bi opravil obrede v slovenskem jeziku, kajti lilo je kot iz škafa med močnim vetrom. Joseph Snoy. Obstanek naroda je na kocki! Koliko je smeriških Slovencev, ki se resnično zavedajo položaja v naši stari domovini? Koliko jih je, ki zares čutijo, da slovensko ljudstvo v starem krsju krvavi na smrt — da je od dveh milijonov Slovencev ena tretjina najbrž že uničena? Ako sodimo po prispevkih za JPO-SS, po gibanju za SANS in po naših preljubih javnih prepirih ter stalno prekipevajočih strankarskih zagrizenostih, jih je težko deset odstotkov. Največ je brezbrižnih, ki sploh ne čltajo o katastrofi v starem kraju, kolikor pa čltajo, se jim vse to dozdeva neverjetno, propaganda ... Ker sami kaj takšnega še niso doživeli, ker ne vidijo tega na lastne oči, je strsšno trpljenje v stari domovini daleč od njihovega pojmovanja. Tej neodpustni brezbrižnosti pa pridno gnoje malenkostni ljudje, ki razpihujejo medsebojne konflikte in s tem ubijajo vssko dobro voljo zs sodelovanje v naših skcijah — za enotno delovanje, čigar prva in glavna nalogs je uničenje osiščs, največjega sovražnika vseh Združenih narodov. Etbin Kristan, predsednik SANSa in starosta slovenskih bojevnikov na socialnem polju, je pred dnevi v radijskem govoru v Detroitu — kl je prlobčen. ns drugem mestu dsnsšnje Prosvete — poudaril sledeče besede: "Narisom trdL da Je Jugealavija aa vekomaj razbita; ml moramo dokasstL da so SlovencL Hrvatje ia Srbi ne delu ss novo JugoslevlJoi fašlsem rasdvaja, asi moramo spajati; oalšče seje sovraštvo, ml moramo krepUi bratstvo . . .

Vsem Jugoslovanom bres lajeme grosi popolno unlče-nje la sate Je dolšaoat vseh strank in skupin, da se sdrušljo sa rešitev ia sa por as skupnega sovražnika." To so besede, bi zadenejo v črno! Zdsj, v tem momentu gre za obstanek vsegs nsšegs naroda! Zdaj ne gre zato, katera slovenska strsnks bo vladala, dobra ali slaba, kajti vse stranke z narodom vred so obsojene v smrt! To Je danes dejstvo! — Koliko jih je. ki se zavedajo tega strašnega dejstva? Oni, ki sc bolj zanimajo za napake posameznih zavezniških vlad, kakor za Hitlerjevavzuerstva, se gotove ne; oni, ki razdvajajo naše ljudstvo v teh usodnih momentih, namesto da bl ga spajali, se gotovo ne; oni. ki podžigajo med nami sovraštvo, namesto da bi krepili bratstvo, se gotove ne! poroča in komentira , , Milan Medveiek ? i&jj Nekdo, ki se je že velikokrat pritoževal čez pisca te kolone pri uredniku, češ da mi daje posebne privilegije za moje "možganske produkte" v sredini številki Prosvete, je gotovo mislil, ds me ne bo več na izprehpd s to kolono, ker je ni bilo, nekaj tednov. No, pa je še tu in ostane' • Bivši predsednik Hoover je imel pred nekaj tedni govor, v katerem je pokazal pot, po kateri moramo itL da ne bomo lsč-ni po vojni. Mož, ki bi najbrže zopet rad postal predsednik, naj kar lepo molči, kajti vsi se se predobro spominjamo njegove "prosperitete". Socialno zavarovanje bo izboljšano Senator VVagncr iz New Yorka je predložil zakonski nsčrt za razširjenje ln izboljšanje socialnega zavarovanja. Načrt je del Rooaeveltovega priporočila, naj kongres že danes pripravi potrebne zakone za realtziranje svobode pred pomanjkanjem po vojni. Wagncrjev načrt vsebuje kompleten sistem socialne zaščite za ljudstvo Združenih držav. Današnje starostno zavarovanje se raztegne na petnajst milijonov farmskih delavcev in hišnih u-službencev, ki danes še ne spadajo pod socialno zaščito; prispevki zavarovancev ln gospodarjev se povečajo na šest odstotkov in sorazmerno bo povečana tudi starostna podpora za delavce; podpora brezposelnih delavcev in odslovitvena izplačila se združijo v enoten »istem zavarovanja; dodano je tudi zdravniško in bolnišnično zavarovanje, dalje podpora za |>oikodbe in za žene ob (Mirodih, začrtan je enoten federulni sistem |>osrcdova!hic za dobavo dela Dalje je v načrtu mnogo določb, ki ae tičejo dosluženih v»>-jakov in njihove pi»dpore, dokler ne dobe stalnega zaalulka. ko se vrnejo v civilno življenje. To podpiranje brezposelnih vojakov je nekaj novega v Ameriki, kar pomeni, da dosluženi vojaki toi pot ne bodo vrženi v naročje privatne dobrodelnosti ali na trg ra prodajanje jabolk, kakor se je godilo po zadnji vojni; prav tako ne bodo vojaki imeli v bodoče vzroka za moledovanje kongreaa ra "bonu»" ali vojaško nagrado. / * Načelo socialnega ravarovanja je ie preizkušeno v sedemletni prakfei m dognatto k« t /drevo in dobro. To načelo bazira na nepo-' bitnem priznanju, da je moderna induattijaka država odgovorna za blagostanje delavcev in ne »me do|»ustit|. da bl delavci v slučaju go»|Mrtlathkc krute, /a katero toeo odgovorni, padlt pod minimum doet« jnctfa življenjskega standard«, dokler ao v državi sredstva, kt lahko temu od pomore jo Država prupeva največji delež v »klad »ot talnega zavarovanje, zahteva pa, da vani prispevajo tudi delodajalci m delavci Piavtlno in dobi o Je torej, da socialno zavan vanje pokrije vm- »loje prebivalstva, ki »o v nevarnosti, da v Caau ekonomske kit/e |>adejo v bedo. Dolžnost konginta je, da U- letos sprejme Wagnerjev načrt iz-b«iJj4anega in povečanega socialnega zavarovanja, Potrebno Je, da )e Amerika dobro pripravljena sa vse slučaje po vojni. To Je prvi korak, ki gs bo Amerike atorile k svobodi pred pomanjkanjem. Ta a v obod a — poleg svobode pred strahom — je eden naj-večjth stebrov demokracije. Pred drajMtimi leti SREDA, 1«.

IU Predsednikova kolona fl,1!! ' Zavedajmo te važnosti obletnic Letos obhajamo pri T SNPJ dve važni ob- letnici, namreč 30-letnico našega mladinskega oddelka in 5-letnico poslovanja mladinskih krožkov. In kakor znano, je gl. odbor na ivojem letnem zborovanju sprejel sklep, s katerim opozarja član itvo na veliko pomembnost teh dveh ustanov za razvoj in uspeh organizacije ter poživlja društva in federacije, da se tega dostojno ipominjajo s prirejanjem slavnosti s programi ali kakor že jim je mogoče. * * Mi se seveda zavedamo izrednih razmer in potežkoč, ki jih je prinesla sedanja vojna. Upoštevamo dejstvo, da so domala že vsi mladi moški pri vojakih in vsled tega ne morejo sodelovati nit# koga drugega pritegniti, vemo, da po vsled prevoznih omejitev nednaselbinski obiski otežkočeni in daljši takorekoč popolnoma izključeni; vemo, da so vsled odmerkov težave z dobavo okrepči u drugih potrebščin za take prireditve in še mnogo je drugih ovir ki vse kvarno učinkujejo na naše prireditve. Vendar pa je stvar tako važna, da je ne smemo prezreti kljub vsemu temu. Težkoče in ovire so, toda stvar je kljub temu izvedljiva. To so najboljše dokazala društva in federacije, ki so se na poziv gl, odbora že od-ivale. Število društev in krožkov je že imelo svoje slavnostne prireditve in večina teh z dobrim uspehom, druge pa še pridejo nekatere prav kmalu. Kako pa tvoje društvo, cenjeni brat, sestra? Uspeh je odvisen največ od zavednosti in dobre volje. Večina tistih, ki so že imeli »lavnostne prireditve in uspeli, so se zavedali, da razmere niso najbolj ugodne, pa so zato toliko bolj napeli in se potrudili. Dajte ie pri vas tako! In ako ne morete drugega, dajte pridobiti vsaj kaj novih članov za naš mladinski oddelek. Vse to je potrebno in to) vidno, da so od prejšnje seje u- pomagalo poveličati naše kga, bratje in sestre!— mladinske slavnosti. Zavedajmo Federacije PROSVKTA KREDIT ZA ASEtMSNT.

The survey disclosed that, despite popular con-ception, juvenile delinquency is not conflned to large cities and overcrowded areas. Questionnaires were sen t to police chiefs in forty-five areas having a total population cf near!y twenty-four milllon people. It was found that delinquency is also prevalent in smaller com-munitiea. • It is correctly assumed that to. a certain extent the breakdown in the morale of young people is due to war fever. Howcver, most police chiefs sscribe juvenile delinquency to Isclc of par-ental control, in whlch they are right but they fsil to state that lack of parental control in many caaes is due to the fact that many mothers today are working in war plani/, and young children are left to shift for themselves. In our opinlcn sli SNPJ lodges with juvenile membershlp should give this situation careful thought. Qur Society enrolls children regardless of psrental affiliation. These children may be taken into the juvenile ranks from birth to sixteen years of age. Our Juvenile Circles offer an eacellent opportunity for training young children from five to 10 years of age—the forma-tlve period of a child's life—as well aa from 10 on and through their 'teen age period until they reach adult atatus. At present there are 50 Juvenile Circles of the SNPJ in as many of our communities scattered throughout the jurladlction. Of theae about 35 are active in the specific fleld ascribed to them, ranglng from cultural to sports activities, while 15 of these Circles remain dormant. From tbe atandpoint of purely soclal welfare the SNPJ couid not do a more vital thing in character-building of the future generation of young men and women than to encourage and develop our Society's Juvenile Circle movement. • e • Our Society with its lodge system couid go a long, long way toward helping to solve the problem of juvenile delinquency. In this respect the SNPJ has been doing its part for the last five years, ever since the organization of Juvenile Circles. Moreover, our Society has early realized the importanoe of juvenile training in fraternalism by establishing its Juvenile Department away back ln 1913, or exactly 30 yeara ago. Many a boy and girl who joined our Society at an early age owes hia or her proper outlock on life to the fact that hia or her affiliation with the SNPJ helped to broaden their viewpoint. There ia no question that boys and girls muat have aome out-let for their ehergy and youthful apirita. Our local lodges with the help of the Society can guide thia enthualaam, thia desire for aelf-expreaslon, along wholeaome, conatructive channels. And right here ia where our Juvenile Circlea enter the picture by offering their members ali that ia neceasary for the building of character. Our active Circlea have demonstrated time and again their abillty in staging worthwhile programa, and in the fleld of športa activities they have shown simllar interest. e e a According to the Fraternal Monitor, devoted to the fraternal benefit syatem, which deals w»th the problem of juvenile delin-quency ln Ita current number, there are countleaa organizationa today In which the adult may occupy his time, outside of work-Ing hours. But boys and girls In the 'teen ages are, for the moat part, left pretty much on their own. Tlie Monitor proporly concludes that the fraternal aocieties, through their well-organized and supervised juvenile depart-mcnts, have much to offer these* boys and girls. Furthermdre, it ststes, the wcrk of the juvenile departments can be made moat sttrsctive to these youngaters. , Again we come to the happy conclusion that to this end there ia no better medium to achieve succcss than through our Juvenile Circles whlch have the specific mission of realizlng this objeet. Also, the Monitor correctly states that many of the boys and girls are natural "showmen". Thev are eager to have an oppor-tunity to stage programa, they know what will attract the atten-tion of other children aa well aa of adults. This haa been shown again and again at evcry juvenile program staged by our Circles. l*t us utilize the opportunity given by our Soclety by support-i»g. organizing and promotlng our Juvenile Circles everywhcre.

Lawn-FRANK OROSER. 550 Work and Gro u) with Our Juvenile Circles Down through the generations, children have been tryinc to do the things that adults are doing. It is no wonder then that many of our juvenile members, who are organized into Circles find an interest in frsternal activities of ali kinds. They first learn to conduct meetings Under certain rules of order. They learn to speak from the floor, to debate, to earrv through a motion, to fight for an opinion they advocate, to elect officers, etc.—In short, the Juvenile Circle is a kind of schuji where the fundamentals of fraternalism and democracy are taught and practiced. Members, who have a talent for oratory, recitation, music dancing, singing, dramatic&, drill team work, and so on. find an opportunity for new development in the Juvenile Circles They also provide channels for recreational activities—indoor and outdoor—sueh as socials, parties, picnics, outings, yames, contests and sports of ali kinds. There is another ph&se to this wcrk that has not been stressed enough in the past and cannot be learned in any other type of organization—something that a great many of the older people did not have a chance to learn. It is the lesson of proteetion. As life grcws more and more complex, there must be more and more grouping together under the principles of fraternal msur-ance, for the care of dependents, for helpfulness to one another. Our boys and girls are given a chance to learn these things through our Juvenile Circles early in life. A group of young people, whc meet at regular intervals, work together on programs and projeetaf learn the value of proteetive benefits, participate in sports and other activities, gradually develop a špirit of unity that binds them together, dependent upon one another for certain enjoyments and necessities of life. A Circle that develops that kind of špirit is bound to thrive and in time show real progress. Almost any group of juveniles can be expected to accomplish big things, if they are enthusiastic about attending meetings and glad čf the chance to work and play together, especially is this true once the members become imbued with the idea that th.eir Circle is one of the best, if not the very best, in the Society. A Circle with that kind of foun-dation and špirit is hard to beat. While much of the activity of the Society has to do with mat-ters pertaining to the inerease cf membership, insurance benefits, social and cultural enjoyments, there is something more in-volved—something as important, perhaps, as aH the other things combined. Our work is to perpetuate the organization for the principles and ideals it offerd. This we must not lose sight cf-this the children must be taught while they are young. It should be our aim to have 4ur children start not where we started, if we want a better world for the common people, but where we leave off. The extent of their success and happiness will depend on how well we succeed in teaching them the fundamentals cf cooperative organizations, be they fraternal, educational, political, 5 industrial or what not. Our juvenile members are the seed of the future SNPJ. The quality and quantity of the harvest later will depend on how carefully we have prepared the ground and sown the seed-how well it is nourished and cultivated. Seed that is good and well tended through the formative years, organized and inspired, can result in but one kind of crop and that rich in things that will give the Society new life and a fresh špirit to continue its good work. Every active SNPJ Lodge should have a Juvenile Circle. There are at least one hundred lodges in the Sociey, who couid very easily organize and support on<*. Sevei> juvenile members, if they are interested enough, and an adult leader is ali that is necessary for a beginning. Organize'a Circle in your commun-ity. Let's work and grow with our juveniles so, when the war is over and our boys return home, they will find the fraternal fires of the SNPJ warmly welcome and cheerful, burning with an ever stronger desire to proteet our members and to perpetuate the principles and ideala of real denrlbcracy and fraternalism.

M^tt-t - '' ^ Soc r 1,0 m ^rnvEfiDAV, JUNE 16 PROSVETA Our Front By Louis In rtcent month« Chicago has Jn flood ed vvith stage plays of SLus tvpt*. It «eem« that the Leitimatc stage i« once more com-into iU own, and this ha« been ^narticularly since Pearl Harbor. Aithou^i comedie« prevali, a fair klance is maintalned between com-^kts and drama«; the success of ito latter teems to depend to a large 2gr^ on the star playing the leading role. Such vvas perhaps the čase with The Three Sisters," a three-act drama By Anton Chekhov, the Russian dramatist and novelist of great fcn*, s ta rr ing Katherine Cornell, judith Anderson and Ruth Gordon. The Cornell roles always attraet jgrge follovvings and thi« wai no uception, despite the fact that she vu not "the leading lady." In fact, the Chekhov dramas have no central figure and ali of the characters h;fve more or less equal rights on the stage. The principal thing in •The Three Sisters" is not the action but the emotional accompani-ment of the action. * The play "Three Sisters" portrays Russian life as it vvas before the Revolution in 191T. The three sis-ters left alone vvith their phlegmatic brother long to see Muscovv but they never realize their hopes to see it and much less to live in it. English crilics have been cul lin* Chekhov the greatest dramatist since Shakes: petre. He succeeds in portraying the life of the Russian people and was successful in injecting in the drama the difference and injustice that existed in Russia in the 19th ccntury and until the dovvnfall of czarism. He portrays the decaying "upper class," incapable o( coping with the coming situation. I had the pleasure of seeing the play last Saturday at the Erianger and enjoyed it immensely. It vvas a Father s Day treat from my little daughter vvho vvas ansious to hear my reaction to the performance. After I told her that there vvere many comical scenes in the play at which an old lady vv^io sat next to me freely chuckied, she concluded that her gift must have been vvell appreciated. And thut old lady%{ knt w Cornell personally from 'way back as she hastened to teli me betvveen the aets. "You knovv, Katherine is a great actress, although she has never played on the sereen." In these days vvhen our ovvn ama-tour stage productions are rapidly dtelining, it is indeed a rare pleasure to see a first-class play such as The lWe Sisters." It vvill be re-roembered that Chekhov, besides vvriting many popular one-act plays, wrote four other serious plays in addition to 'The Three Sisters." These are "The Seagull," "Uncle Vanya," "The Cherry Orchard," and "Ivanov." Of his many stories, "My Life" and "In the Ravine" are con ridered his tvvo mastcrpieces.

Jblly Juveniles vvill take charge of the "Havvaiian Leis," "Ring Toss," "Bovvling," "Hit the Axis Povvers," "Penny Toss," Fishing Pond" and the "Refresh-ment" stands, vvhile adult members of Sloga vvill take charge of the bingo games.

We vvould like as many donations of hand-made articles as possible, and vve knovv that from some of the vvork promised, this booth should be one of the best booths in the carnival. Mrs. Frank Pierce has been vvork-ing for vveeks, instrueting the girls of the Circle on making the Havvaiian leis, mcasuring, cutting, and putting on the finishing touches for the leis. About 125 of these leis have been made so far, and they sre just beautiful, ali colors of the rain-bow, and these vvill go on sale at a vcry colorful-booth. Much credit should also go to some other vvilling vvorkers, the mothers of the younger group, Mrs. Anton Celarec Jr., M »s. Paul Trnovec Jr., and Mrs. Jacob Kovach. They spent many hours preparing and putting on finishing touches on the leis. Frank Brus, secretary of Sloga, called to sav that enough ^orkers vvere secured .to ably take care of the bingo tables. Anyone vvishing to donate prizes for bingo can be assured that they vvill be gladly accepted. Home made eakes vvill be neuded to make the "cake-vvalk" successful, so you mothers that aren't planning to donato anything else, why not bake a cake? This is the first time the Juviniles have called on the three SNPJ lodges for help. The Jolly Juveniles have appcared *on numerous Programa and have done very vvell on each performance, so that the people novv expect the children U» do vvell, and they take them for granted and don't take into consideration aH the time and effort it takes these youngsters to put on a finished vvork.

PA.—This Sundi«y, June 20. at 2:30 p. m. the Veronians vvUl have another of their monthly meetings. Aa many members as possible, especiaily the married folks and girls vvho are vvorking in de-fense pianta, should attend this meeting because of the u t must importance involving them at this time when ali of the single men are or have been inducted into the armed services. As I have in my articles men-tioncd manv times. it's you and your children who are going to enjoy this club (your second home) sooner or later. So when Sunday rolis around lefs ramble down to the club for the meeting and find out what's going on or what you can do in order not to disappomt those boys who are fift'«-" ing for us. When they come .narch-ing home we want our ^tib to be the best in our vici^tr. That we can easily do if aH—about 300 strong, not i r Puding the juveniles who have 'otH-n doing their share— piteh in * couple of hours each week. u* Vacalio® Ttme Isn't it wonderful llving in these United States? Ves, sir, even in times of war we are given vaca-tions with pay by our employers. Ia my opinion evcry vvorker ahould take his vacation, because it's the best stimulant one can give to that Ured body of ours. Veronians who had recent vacations are Lillian Mu jean and Josephine Samec who traveied to Cleveland and John Youk, Prank Bozick and Kil Suchevlch who mixed their pleaaures wlth victory gardens. Penasy SIVPJ Day ' Sygan will be the scene of Pcnn-sylvania's Ped. SNPJ Day next Sunday, June 27. Have you made arrangements for ali details as to how th« trlo to Sygan is going to be made? Many SNPJ members who are in the services have made plans to attend this gigantic wur-time affalr. Try to be on hand. won't you, to meet und celebrate this one and only 1043 Ped. affair with our former buddies. Lefs say to ourselves, "Ifs a date to celebrate, vvith Martin Kukovich and his orchestra, with ali the Juvenile Circles who vvill provide a real show, and with Mr. Prank Zaltz, member of the Supreme Board who, as principal speaker of this affair, will give out his vievvs in different subject«. AU in ali, the entertainment commlttee promlscs aH a good time. * Mews Notes The Veronettes' nest get-together wlll take plače at the home of Steffie Krulac on Mdnday evening, June 21. A large crowd of Vcro-netUs la espected to attend this double event (muaning the miting and first day of sumnier). Say, maybe if I keep throvving hints, I might get an invitation to do some reporting for one of these meetings. (Pat chance though. as men are absolutely barred.) Here thev are the first i>crson* to go swiming among our Veronians. At the Willows pool up In Oakmont it was Charles Mehalich and Joe Tomazlch who proiiably dkln't even get their big toes wet. And in the rlver by our club it was Miml Tomaslch who should be given a medal for braving the high and culd waters of the Al-legheny. Gueas veho walked in on us at our June 0 social wlth Cpl. John Pabec as an eacort? None »»thei than the Morning Starš from Pitts burgh Indudcd bi this group were Mrs. Klun. Sylvia and Kose Pabee, Elaie Klun. Lucy Moslna. and Olga Cavanaugh Ikcauae of Cpl Pabec having to get an early tram for camp, the party left early. Could be that Matt Kern, Elmer Eiffler and Prank Krulc Jr. are members at the caclualve Jewiab WesAnoreland Country Club by the many times they wer« seen play-ing there (or shall we say "sna k ing" them aH over the oourse). Also Kvii at the social were the Zalars, Mrs. Zalar, Margaret and Prank. In their company was Mrs. Macaluso veho also hails from Oakmont Mr. and Mrs. Kera. Mr. and Mrs. Krulac and Mr. Zlbreg whose son Pvt. Charles Zlbreg, veho was home on furlough. was one of the five »oJdier-boys that included Sgt. Vincent Crider, a Veronian. Pvt. Charles Miller, a brother of Prltzi'*, Pvt. John Jose back, a brother-in-law of Eddie Ruske wicz, and Pvt. Malesick, who gave those snappy salutes upon being introduced to the crovvd. AU took part in having a good time. Veronian members veho have li^n inducted or have enlisted into the services of our country of late are John Strama, the Springdale lad who always brought a crovvd to help make our socials a success; Tom Grgurich, another fellovv who spent a lot of his time at the club, a boy veho Could really dance and who had a way vvith the girls; Joe Bosco, vvho made up his m ind that the war couldn't get along vvithout him, is another boy vvho liked his dancing and although he vvas a member of only a few months, he aiready vvas getting,to be a popular boy here at the club; Oeorge Brown, a quiet lad always m ind ing his own buslness veh ose top šport vvas also dancing; and the last who veil I soon go is Tristy Procopio. vvho has shovvn the Veronians what a svvell guy he really could be vvhcn they admit ted him into our Lodge. Also home on furlough vvas Howdy Reed, vvhom I missed in the above paragraph of this article. Howdy, vvho is in the navy, tells of the tough anfignmcnts in that braneh of the service. Barroom ceiling has been put in, the float has been launcbed, paint-ing has been started on tl|e hali and dance floor, and the balmka courts are comlng along fine. So with this remindar to come down to your club as often as you ean—and also to write to j|hc boys in the service—I'U say So Jong until 8unday afternoon vvhcn It vvill be meeting time and Sunday night when Patochnik's orchestra will furnish your social musls.

Elmer Daviš Ansioers President of Serb Federation WASHINGTON.—The Office of War Information today released an exchange of letters betvveen Mr. Samuel Werlinich. President of the Serb National Pederation, and Elmer Daviš. Direetor of the OWI. June I, 1943. Elmer Daviš Direetor of War Information VVashington. D. C. Dear Mr. Davla: Sometime ago a number of us met vvith you and officials of the Department of State to diseuss war problems, involving Americans of Serbian. Croatian and Slovenian extraction. You may remember me as the only representative of the Serb National Pederation vvho vvas veilling to sign the unlty pledge. As the time for our National Conven-tion approaches, I am being citicized by certain people for this aetion. Now, knovving that you are one of our leaders in this fight for free-dom snd that you are a friend of ali vvho believe in democracy, I turn to you for advice. I would ap-preciate it very much if you would give me the present opinion of the United States Government concern -ing the policies followed by the Serbian National Pederation and policies of its official organ, the American Srbobran. Knovving you as s friend of those Americans of Serbian extraction who believe in freedom and democ-racy, and who are loyal to the United States Government, and also knovving you as s friend of the Serbians overseas veho battie the Nazis and Pascists, I depend upon you for guidance at this time. Sincerely yours (Signed) Samuel Werlinich President * Serb National Pederation Mr. Daviš replied: June 10, 1943 Mr. Samuel Werlinich President, Serb National Pederation 1120 Wayne Avenue McfCees Ročk, Pennsylvania Dear Mr. Werlinich: Thank you for your letter asking me to adviae you aa to present official opinion concerning the "American Srbobran," official organ of the Serb National Pederation. Por some tlme, several branehes 61 the United States Government, including the Offiee of War Information, the Department of Justice, and the Department of State, have vestehed vvith concern the pol-ss of the "American Srbobran." Its violent attacks upon aU pcoples of Croatian cxtraction and their clcrgy, its strong anti-Catholic articles, and ita veiled cfforts to de-fend the QuiHling Nedich vvho sup-porta th« Nazi regime in Serbia often have the effect of aiding the Nasi campaign« of intalerance and race hate, and are damaging to the American war effort. The resolution vvhieh you signed in Waahington on September 18. 1942 read as follovvs: "W« pledge ourselves to follow the l«ad of the American govern-ment in working for unity of ali Americans, regard less of national or raclal exti aetion. in the vital taak of veinning this war for freedom. We agree to oppose ali ef-forta to set Americans of Jugoslav eatraetion against each oth-«r.H It ia surprlslng to learn that you ar« b«ing criticized for signing this resolution. since it ia obvious that American umty is imperative for the successful prosecution of this war. The Nazis have boosted that they would set Americans against Američana and they are striving to do so. They have sought for years to set people of Serbian. Croatian and Sloven« cxtracUon against each other. It is the old game of divide and e«»nquer. When you m a ned -the resolution ln Washington, you p led geti yuurself to oppose this Nazi plan I am confident that in making this uetion you fully rep-loaented the špirit of ♦he American Serba who ch«»se you aa President of the 8erb National Pederatiop.

That statement was made in a i nt mora bl«- spcech last vveek by Senator James M. Mead (dem. N. Y.). who said it was baaed op testimony taken by the Truman commlttee of vvhieh he ia a member. Mead. who has been a member of congress for more than 20 years, paid his respects to Captain Eddie Rickenbacker, wbo is trying to keep the absentee siander alive, and who vvas tagged as "the champion of th« old deal in Labor relations." Tool of tabor Hatert "lt vvould seem that this great ace of the air," Mead declared. "has become the ace up the statve of Labor bajters whoae object is to slip the knave card to organized Labor as responsible for absenteeism, slow down and wage profiteering in war production." The fact is, as escertained by the Truman committee, Mead asserted, that absenteeism ls almost exclu-y a problem of manag it by strong, disciplined uniona in the eonduct of factories. This conclusion is inevitable, Mead con tended, from an analysis of several hundred reports received by the committee from railroada, shipyards. aircraft plants, steel n^Uls and practically every industry en in war production. reports alao show, Mead developed, that average absenteeism does not exceed more than 4 or 4 Ml per cent, vvhieh is about the normal rate for. peacetime. Pa*tt With Management 'Trom the evidence," he added, "I am convinced that if any plant today has a higher average it is due largely to management failure, to a lack of knovvledge of vehat can be done and how to go about it. HJ The New York solon vvas particu-^arly vigorous in his denundation of propagandists veho have used the press and radio b) an effort to ereate the tmpression that "millions of vvorkers in our industrial army are leafing, lagging and lfquoring; that they are lying down on the job in supplying flghting equipment, and that they are livir^g in affluent idle due to exorbiant vvages and short hours. ■*fHat sueh implications are false." h« continued,. "is readily revealed by our production records. Let jiš not forget that absentees did not produce 1,500.000 dead vveigh t tona of merchant ships delivered in Pebruary, or 5,000 planeš turned out ih February, or Ihe 70,000 tons| of aircraft bombs supplied by war plants in January, or the 60,000,-000,000 ton miles of freight moved in November, or the present war production record of $0,000,000,000 a month, as compared vvith only $2,000,000,000 a year ago WEDNESDAY, JUNE 16 Admiral C.

They are the best proof thst the soldicrs on th« production front sre not loafers, slackers or duty dodgersl" Committee reports reveal, Mead emphasized, that the greatest single cause of absenteeism is sickness, fol-lowed by accidenU, transportation difficulties, fatigue due to speed-up and long hours. improper and inadequate food, bad housing, lack of medical service and awkward shift arrangements. The absentee rate Is higher among vvomen than men, Mead said, be cause of home responsibilities, rationing troUbles and other problems peeullar to their sex. Instead of devoting its time to slandering workers, Mead. told the senate, congress might better give IU a t ten tion to remedies that will correct conditlons bejrond the control of workcrs. Real Absenteeism He cited the fact that deaths and disabling injuries in 1941 caused "the almost unbelievably stagger Ing" tlme loaa of 250.000,000 man days. Last year, he said, accident deaths Increased 7 per cent and fatal injuries 14 per cent "Here is real abacnteeism!" he added. "More than 19.000 American workers wlll be abeent from their joba forever! Pully half of the 100.000 permanently crippled work-ers wUl never return to fuU productlon jobs.

But Ct¥A, PWA, WPA and CCC did not demoralize the nation Nove the same wiseacres are ridi-culing the Beveridge plan, the Roosevelt "cradle to the grave" program, »nd aU other suggestions to sVstemize social security. They realize that there is a lot of politics mixed up vvith these various plans; that the fellovvs vvho are now in uniform are going to do a lot of de-manding when the big push is over and they come back to civilian life; that a lot of crackpots are going to take advantage of an opportunity to become advocates of new »ocial orders. But last vveek Dr. Herman Finer, special consultant on postvvar re-construction problems at the International Labor Offiče in Montreal, got Ui his nickefs worth to stop some of the propaganda now going the rounds to diacredit aH social se curity programa. Said Dr. Finer: "Criticism of efforts to set up • social security program has now crystallized itself into fear that the common man vvill be insldiously de-moralized bv security guaranU-ed by the state; that his incentive to work vvill be sapped; that his vvill to in-dustry and getting on in the world vvill degenerate.
