Varnostni svet naj dobi administracijo Palestine Ruski delegat zahteva odpoklic britskih čet. Ustanovitev posebne komisije predlagana Lske Succeaa. N. Y.. 4. nov.— Ruski delegat Semen K. Carapkin je zahteval, naj se britska kontrola Palestine zaključi do j januarja, notranjo administracijo pa naj prevzame varnostni svet Združenih narodov. Ta naj bi vršila poverjen* ji funkcije, dokler ne bo Palestina razkosana na dve državi—židovsko in arabsko. Carapkin je zahteval tudi odpoklic britskih čet iz Palestine. Čete naj bi zapustile deželo do maja prihodnjega leta. Uradna ustanovitev dveh držav naj se razglasi nekaj mesecev pozneje. Deklaracijo o stališču Sovjetske unije glede Palestine je Carapkin podal na tajni seji članov odbora za Palestino. Sovjetska deklaracija je bazirana na domnevi, da bo skupščina Združenih narodov odobrila načrt glede razkosanja Palestine na dve državi. Arabci vodijo odločno opozicijo proti razkosanju Palestine. Njihova delegacija vztraja pri zahtevi, da mora Palestina postati neodvisna arabska država. Kongresni odsek je nazadnjaški Njefrov rekord je protidelavsfei Washington, D. C. — (FP) — Člani kongresnega odseka za neameriške aktivnosti, ki vodijo preiskavo o komunistih v filmskih podjetij, so znani kot sovražniki delavcev in socialne zakonodaje. Kongresni odsek za neameriške aktivnosti ima devet članov in vsi so v kongresu preteklega junija glasovali za protidelavski Taft-Hartleyev zakon. Dalje je ta devetorica glasovala za odpravo mezdnourne-ga zakona, za znižanje davkov korporacijam in proti odpravi volilnega davka v južnih državah V 30 slučajih so glasovali proti delavskim zakonom, v petih slučajih so glasovali v prilog »ocialne zakonodaje, v enem »lučaju pa so se vzdržali glasovanja. Tak je njihov protide-kvski rekord v kongresu. J Parnell Thomas, republikanec iz N Jerseya, načelnik orne-nJPnpf?a odseka, je bil do leta 1936 wallstreetski finančnik; J"hn K.

Bon-^•mokrat »z Severne Caro- Amerika je zavzela nasprotno stališče. Predlagala je, naj Velika Britanija obdrži kontrolo do 1. julija prihodnjega leta. Carapkin je dejal, da Velika Britanija, ki ima mandat nad Palestino, ni izpolnila pričakovanj. Mandat je dobila od stare Lige narodov. Potrebna je'prehodna doba pod administracijo varnostnega sveta. Carapkin je predlagal ustanovitev posebne komisije, ki naj bi bila pod kontrolo varnostnega sveta. Komisijo naj bi tvorili reprezentanti Rusije, Amerike, Velike Britanije, Francije, Kitajske, Sirije, Avstralije, Brazilije, Belgije, Poljske in Colom-bije. Vzdrževanje reda in miru v Palestini naj bi bilo poverjeno posebni policijski sili. Člani posebne komisije Združenih narodov naj bi po prihodu v Palestino začrtali mejo med arabsko in židovsko državo v soglasju z zaključki varnostnega sveta. Po posvetovanjih z reprezentanti demokratičnih strank in socialnih organizacij v obeh državah naj bi komisija formirala začasne vladne uprave. Splošne volitve naj bi sledile v obeh državah ustanovitvi vladnih svetov. Izvoljeni člani skupščin naj bi sestavili ustavi za obe državi. Na zborovanju akupščine j« bilo soglasno odobreno poročilo političnega odbora z obsodbo vojne propagande v vseh državah v okviru Združenih narodov. Poročilo je v soglasju s sprejeto resolucijo. Vprašanje vojne propagande l>o prišlo pred mednarodno konferenco v Ženevi, Švica, v marcu prihodnjega leta. Francosko zlato pripeljano v Ameriko Washington, D. C., 4. nov.— Uradno poročilo pravi, da je francoska križarka pripeljala francosko zlato v Ameriko. Vrednost zlata znaša $89,000,000 in bo izmenjano za ameriške dolarje, katere Francija potrebuje za kupovanje blaga. Ameriška izjava o zunanji politiki Rusija obdolžena odgovornosti za polome Washington. D. C.. 4. nov.— Državni department je objavil deklaracijo o zunanji politiki, v kateri je zvrnil odgovornost za polome Združenih narodov, "da niso dobili sadov miru in zmage," na govjetsko Rusijo. Deklaracija uključuje splošen pregled ciljev in namenov ameriške vlade in pojasnilo njenega stališča o glavnih mednarodnih problemih v povojni dobi, zaeno pa očita Rusiji, da je proti sklepanju kompromisov in izvajanju dogovorov, ki so bili sklenjeni v vojnem času. "Glavni cilj Združenih držav/' pravi deklaracija, "je sklenitev mirovnih pogodb, ki bi omogočile odpoklic okupacijskih sil iz Nemčije, Avstrije, Koreje in Japonske. Sovjetska unija in Amerika Rta se obvezali glede demilitarizacije, politične rekonstrukcije in ekonomske enot* nosti Nemčije. Sovjetska unija ne izpolnuje obveznosti. Ona hoče le dobiti maksimalne reparacije od Nemčije in je za ustanovitev takega režima v Nemčiji, ki naj bi bil naklonjen Rusiji. Amerika je zainteresirana v ekonomsko rehabilitacijo in de-mokratično rekonstrukcijo Nemčije na podlagi svobodne politične akcije. Nemčija mora zavzeti položaj med državami, ki ji bo omogočil kooperacijo v izvajanju programa ekonomske rekonstrukcije v Evropi. Rusija je povzročila zastoj v -teh prizadevanjih. Situacija v Nemčiji sliči situaciji v Avstriji." Deklaracija poudarja, da je Rusija tudi odgovorna za zastoj v diskuzijah glede kontrole atomske energije. Njeno stališče v tem oziru ogroža učinkovitost varnostnega sveta kot crgana za vzdrževanje miru.

V tej so naglasili potrebo kooperacije med temi državami in Ameriko in kontrole v zvezi z izvajanjem rekonstrukcljskegs programa. Sugerirali so nadzorstvo ameriške pomoči nt ta način, da ne bi mogel nihče oČjtati Ameriki vmešavanja v notranje zadeve zapadnih evropskih držav.

Rila je prva dežela, ki je pred 150 leti sprejela svoj prav tako nesmrtni Spored pravic (Uill of Rights). Skozi vse zadnje stoletje in tudi pozneje je slovila ne samo kot Obljubljena dežela bajnega bogastva in dobrih gospodarskih prilik za sleherni par pridnih rok in podjetnosti, marveč tudi kot dežela demokracije, dežela svobode, dežela enakopravnosti, pribežališče vseh zatiranih. Res je, da ta mogočni sij še ni povsem zatonil. Res je, da bi tudi danes nastal enak val preseljevanja iz Evrope v Ameriko kot je bil pred prvo svetovno vojno, v dobi največjega priselje vanja Slovanov v to deželo, ako bi bila vrata na široko odprta.

Rexnica je tudi, da se danes mnogi narodi, mnoge vlade tresejo pred mogočno Ameriko, in nicer tudi tiste vlade, ki od nje prejemajo ali pričakujejo bogate milodare, seveda predvsem zato, da ne zlezejo |x>d plašč "kooomunizma". * In kljub temu, da je Amerika danes najstarejša demokracija, ;e ironija vseh ironij v tem, da se danes načela njene Izjave neodvisnosti, nanašajoča se na srečo in enakopravnost posamez nika, kakor tudi njen S|K»red pravic Imlj spoštujejo v kršenju in teptanju kakor pa v spoštovanju in realiziranju. O vsem tem zelo zgovorno govori poročilo piej omenjene predsednikove komisije, kateremu bi morala dr/ela posvetiti vso pozornost in so očistiti svojih lastnih grehov. šele potem bi se njeni diplomatje lahko ponudili /a pometuče pred tujim pragom.

Odzvali smo se tudi z vsoto $10 na apel' Narodnega odbora za svoboden tisk. Tudi to akcijo 1e treba podpirati, kajti če re-ikcija zmaga, bodo v nevarnosti vse naše napredne publikacije. Ne smem pozabiti poročati, da imamo tukaj tudi mladinski kiožek SNPJ, ki nosi številko 56. Krožek skrbno vodita voditeljici Josephine Strubel in Frances Zakraišek. Imamo tu-vem še to: Naše društvo kot angleško poslujoče jt drugo pii jed noti. ki lastuje svej Slovenski dom. Prvo pa je v Veroni. Sedaj pa še nekaj besed o pomembni priredbi društva Excelsiors.

Va^Na zadnji redni seji društva 407 SNPJ je bilo sklenjeno, da priredimo to leto še eno veselico In zaeno božičnico za mladinske člane našega društva. Naše društvo ni priredilo že več let božlčnice za otroke, ker so bile razne zapreke, sedaj pa NAŠE AKTIVNOSTI ' fui ' Chicago. I1L—Pphodnja seja ,krožka Progresivnih Slovenk št. 9 se bo vršila dne 5. novembra, na kateri se zopet obeta pristop večjega števila naših Slovenk, kar jk)meni, da bo število članic že mogoče na prihodnji seji doseglo 100, kar bo sijajni uspeh v tako kratki dobi kot jo zaznamuje naš krožek. \ Za to sejo bo prosvetni odsek preskrbel nekaj programa, vsled tega opozarjam vse članice, katerim je le mogoče, da se seje udeležijo. Opomnim naj ponovno vse rojake v Chicagu in okolici, da rezervirajo nedeljo, 16. novembra ,in da posetijo naš prvi družabni večer. Zabava se bo pričela že ob štirih popoldne, ob peti uri se pa bo pričela servi-rati večerja! i Zdi se mi potrebno tudi od moje strani zahvaliti se lasall-skim rojakom, ker so nam ob priliki vprizoritve igre "Sin" tako imenitno postregli v vseh ozirih. Vsa čast vam, pridne žene, kakor tudi priznanje moškim, ker tako obširna priredba je brez dvoma potrebovala mnogo požrtvovalnosti. Prav lepo je bilo zopet bitj ped vami po 30 letih, kakor je z odra omenil br. Leo Zevnik, posebno kadar se skupaj snidemo v namenu, da nekaj dopri-nesemo za kulturno stran našega ljudstva. Pozdrav vsem skupaj! Francas Vidar, pred. krožka 9 P. S. PROŠNJA DO BIVŠIH NAROČNIKOV CANKARJEVEGA GLASNIKA OBVESTILO ČLANSTVU DRUŠTVA MIR ŠT. 142 SNPJ Clav^and, 0,-Zadnja mesec-n* seja našega društva Jc bila precej uspešna. Udeležba je bi la Večja kot pa na prejšnjih sejah. Ni težko uganiti zakaj Sj. glasno s sklepom smo na sejah uvedli neko novost. Skleni'i smo namreč, da se bosta preči tali imeni dveh članov našega društva. Član, katerega ime bo prvo prečitano, dobi $15, dru-i pa $10. Sklenjeno je bilo tudi da se bo dalo "utešno" nagrado članu, katerega ime je bilo či-t,ano, ^a ni bil navzoč na seji, Utesna nagrada znaša $1, toda samo v slučaju, če se udeleži prihodnje seje. Na seji 12. oktobra je bilo to arvič postopano v smislu gornjega zaključka. Mnogi člani so se seje udeležili že iz same radovednosti, da vidijo, kako bo to šlo in kateri član bo srečni dobitnik. Višek napetosti je bil, ko se je v roki naše zapisni-karice s. Susel pojavil listek. V grobni tišini je zapisnikarica prečitala: James Petsche, cert. št. 9581! Mnogi so presenečeni vzklikmji in zaploskali. Kako pa ne! Saj je sobrat James Pet-sphe, katerega ime je bilo prvo prečitano, bil prvi tajnik naše-ga društva. 2al pa njega ni bi-Jo med nami, ker sedaj živi v Brewsterju, O. Ker je bil res izreden slučaj in ker je šlo za prvega tajnika društva "Mir", ie bil z navdušenjem sprejet predlog, da mu se "utešni" d> lar pošlje. Če pa pride na prihodnjo sejo, se mu bo menda izplačalo še en dolar? (Ker je na zadnji seji bil srečen dobitnik prvi tajnik društva, bi men-Via bilo pravično, da bi na prihodnji bil dobitnik zadnji tajnik. Temu vsaj oe bo potrebno pošiljati "utesne" nagrade). Drugo ime je bilo člana Tony-ja Kramarja, cert. št. 93075. B. Kramar pa je žal Izgubil lepo priliko, da olajša društveno blagajno za $10, ker ni bil na vzoč. Dobi pa $1, če pride na sejo, ki se bo vršila 9. novembra. (Ta slučaj naj bo v resen opomin vsem članim, ki ne prihajajo na naše seje!) Uvedena novost je precej po- živela našo zadnjo sejo.

O.-Ponovno je na-oocil čas, da članstvo našega Ktva opozorimo na našo običajno letno veselico, katera se to vršila 9. novembra v Slovenskem delavskem domu na \?a-erloo rd. Ples se bo pričel ob osmih zvečer, za katerega bo £ m\ izvrsten orkester Barbi* ml -Zalokar. Kakor vsako leto, tako bosta tudi letos igrala poskočne polke in lepe valčke. Za lačne bo pa skrbela naša članica Mary Erjavec, katerega je vedno pripravljena vzeti v oskrbo kuhinjo, kadar jo prosimo, tako da je ta naša pridna žena menda zadnje čase več v Slovenskem delavskem domu kot ^°Naši člani pa bodo skrbeli, da ne bo šel nihče žejen domov. Na razpolago bo hladen ječme-novec in sodavica, seveda, r.a nameček še kaj drugega, a to ne smemo povedati v javnosti, vsaj tako pravijo. Torej, bratje in sestre, dru-Štveniki in društvenice, naj ne bo ta apel zaman. Pridite na veselico svojega društva in s tem pomagajte društveni blagajni, katero je treba od časa do časa okrepiti. Leto je dolgo in v 12 mesecih izda društvo precej grošev za razne narodne svrhe. Samo našim bratom in sestram onkraj morja smo do sedaj že veliko pomagali, prav tako smo že veliko izdali za naše kulturne in prosvetne namene. Ni seje, da ne bi bili naklonjeni napram vsem' takim dobrim akcijam. Če hočemo, da bomo to vršili tudi v bodočnosti, je potrebno, da imamo od časa do časa tudi veselico ali kakšno drugi priredbo. Ne smemo pozabiti, da smo v tem letu izgubili iz naše srede že osem članov, društvo pa ima z vsakim pogrebom stroške, tako da se blagajna polagoma izčrpava. Naše društvo je bilo vedno vodilno v naši naselbini, kakor tudi kažipot vsemu, kar je med nami dobrega, zato moramo gledati s ponosom na društvo, ki vrši svojo nalogo v vseh ozirih stoodstotno. Naše društvo je prispevalo samo za organizacijo SANS par tisočakov. Ves ta denar je bil porabljen v korist naših krvnih bratov v stari domovmi. Bratje ni sestre, naj ne bo ta apel zaman. Pošljite na našo veselico tudi svoje sinove in hčere, da bomo imeli večji uspeh. Dolžnost slehernega člana in članice je, da pride med svoje društvene brate in sestre vsaj enkrat na leto. Če že niste točni Klede društvenih sej, pridite vsaj na veselico, kadar vas vabi društveni odbor. Zabave bo se za vse dovolj— u mlade ples, za starejše pa kramljanje v veseli družbi društvenih bratov in sester. Seveda. na veselici bomo videli tudi naše brate in sestre od drugih društev SNPJ. Društvo V boj je vedno delovalo za delavske principe in Podpiralo stremljenje na polju narodne kulture. Torej Martinova nedelja bo res nedelja zabave in razvedrila.

V tukajšnji jeklacni se je pobil na glavo član Anthony De-Lach. Zdravi se v bolnišnici Corwin. Operirana na grlu je bila naša aktivna članica Agnes Knafelc. Naš slovenski brivec John Mohor je že precej časa bolan in njegova brivnica je zaprta začasno. Na operacijo v Mayo Clinic, Rochester, Minn., se je moral podati Joseph Zakraysek ml. Spremljal ga je njegov oče. Sedaj se zdravi doma. Oba, oče in sin, sta naša člana, mama Rosie pa rada bere Prosveto. V bolnišnici Corwin se nahaja Mary, žena Edwarda Tomšiča iz Walsenburga. Tam se zdravi tudi naša članica Anna Kern. Bolan je bil tudi član Louis Mihelich, kateri pa trdi, da je že zdrav. Naša pridna Tončka Klun je po nesreči dobila veliko rano na roki, katera pa se dobro celi. Hčerka Franka in Olge Mesojedec, Erma Jean, je 16. okt. graduirala prvi termin na glaso-virju. Frank je dobra moč na odru, bodisi v petju ali igranju, zgleda kct da mala hčerka ni padla daleč od jablane. Jack Zadel je pisal iz Nove Mehike, da se počuti bolje. John Fatur pa iz Paonie, Colo., da je zelo bolan; oba v pismih pozdravljata vse članstvo, društvo Orel pa želi obema skorajšnje okrevanje! Dne 27. okt. je umrla v bolnišnici St. Mary's Anna Mohor, prvič poročena Struss in to v stari domovini, drugič tukaj v Ameriki, Njen mož je umrl pred nekaj leti. Rojena je bila v vasi Dolenja Slivnica, fara Kopanj, dekliško ime Vovk. Dosegla je lepo starost 80 let. Lepe cvetlice in velika udei iežba sosedov in prijateljev pri pogrebnih obredih, je pričala, da je bila pokojnica priljubljena. Zapušča dve hčeri, našo članico Agnes Knafelc in Anno Ciruli.

Vreme je bilo oblačno in se pripravljalo k dežju, vzlic temu pa je bila lepa udeležba. Moram reči, da je vsakomur lahko žal, kdor ni videl krasne drame "Sin". Igralci so dobro izvršili svoje vloge. Starejše igralce ne bomo nikdar pozabili, kajti v svojih vlogah so tako izvrstno nastopali, da bi bili lahko zvezdniki v Hollywoodu. V resnici je bila vstopnina več vredna kot smo jo računali. Pravilno je za pisal v Prosveti A. Udovich namreč če bi bila ta igra vpri-zorjena na- ameriškem odru, bi računali najmanj $2 za vstopnino. Po dvorani je bilo videti matere in očete, ki so si brisali solzne oči, ker je nesrečni sin Ciril povzročil očetovo smrt. Tudi jaz sem se tako vživela v igro. da sem na sedežu odsko-čila, ko je Ciril ustrelil proti Heleni, neporočeni materi njegova sinčka.* Vsi igralci zaslužijo vse priznanje. Ta Ganglova drama je res le pa. Jakob Zupan je napisal nekaj razglednic in jih s podpis« poslal v staro domovino, med razglednicami ie bila tudi ena naslovljena na pisatelja te igre Engelberta Gangla. ki sedaj Hvl v Metliki in mu je ie blizu 80 let. Pisatelj bo vesel, ko bo zvedel, da je bilo njegovo delo zopet z uspehom v prizor j eno na slovenskem odru v daljni Ameriki. Med dejanji pa nas je tolažil orkester, ki je igral lepe slovenske iflelodije. To je bil Jakličev orkester iz La Salla. Po igri pa je igral v spodnjih prostorih. Sedaj pa se v imenu vsega odbora najlepše zahvaljujem vsem, ki so se udeležili naše priredbe, domačinom in drugim rojakom iz zunanjih naselbin. Prišli so iz Moline, Ottawe, We-none, Depueja in "Trojnega mesta" — La Salle, Peru-Oglesby. Tudi iz Chicaga jih je prišlo precej z igralci. Iskrena hvala igralcem, ki so darovali $10 v našo blagajno. Najlepša hvala všem udeležencem, ki so nam pripomogli do tako lepega uspeha. Večina prebitka bomo poslali organizaciji SANS, nekaj pa Narodnemu odboru za svobodni tisk v Cleveland. Našim članicam gospodinjskega kluba se pa še posebej zahvaljujemo, ker so tako pridrto delale v kuhinji, prav tako dekletom, ki so servirala. Mogoče ni bilo vse tako, kot bi moralo biti, zato upam, da nam oprostite. Najlepša hvala tudi članom gospodarskega odseka za vsestransko oomoč, dalje toča-jem in dobrim ženam, katere so spekle in durovale dobre potice. Naredile so tudi izvrstne rezance in okusno juho. Torej prisrčna hvala vsem, ki so na en ali drug način pripomogli do tako lepega uspeha. Na koncu pa naznanjam zastopnikom podružnice 49 SANSa, da bomo imeli izredno sejo isti večer kot gospodarski odsek Slovenskega narodnega doma, to je na drugo sredo, 12. nov., začetek ob sedmih zvečer. Na tej seji bo podan tudi račun zadnje priredbe. Christine Nadvoanlk. tajnica. Slovenskim domovom, društvom in organizacijam v zapadni Pennsylvaniji KOLAR FLORAL CO.

Lr<** SEJA PODRUŽNICE 2ft SANSa Chicago. 111.—Člane in članice podružnice 25 SANSa se opozarja na prihodnjo sejo, katera se bo vršila v petek, 7. nov., v Slovenskem delavskem centru. Po seji bo govoril predsednik SANSa Fred Vider o poteku važnega zborovanja Ameriškega slovanskega kongresa, katera se je vršilo pretekli mesec v New Yorku. To zborovanje je bilo velikega pomena za ameriške Slovane in potrebno ja, da članstvo podružnice ve, kaj vse je danes na dnevnem redu. Dalje opozarjam vse tiste člane, katerim je potekla članarina, da se udeleže seje in jo poravnajo, saj članarina ni velika. Apeliram tudi na rojake in rojakinje v Chicagu, kateri »e niso pri naši podružnici, da se ji pridružijo in z nami vred vršijo delo, katero je tako potrebno v teh kritičnih časih. Člane, ka teri imajo nabiralne pole za svobodni tisk, opominjam, da jih s prispevki vrnejo, nakar jih bomo odposlali odboru za svobodni tisk v Cleveland. Prask Alesh, tajnik. Pittsburgh. Odbor MSlo-venskega dneva", ki upravlja slovenski program, je te dni razposlal na slovenske domove, klube in premožnejša društva apel, da bi tudi oni prevzeli del finančne odgovornosti, oziroma prošnjo, da bi prispevali vsaj za en program na leto. To smo storili več razlogov, katere želimo bolj obširno ob-jasniti: 1. Slovenski radio program se vzdržuje od pričetka julija samo s prostovrljnimi darovi od strani društev, federacij SNPJ in posameznih zavednih rojakov in rojakinj, ki so se vsi SPONTANO odzvali takoj, ko so slišali prvi program. Vsi so izrazili željo, da se bi stalno nadaljeval. 2. Cilj programa in organizacije je, da slu** splošni slovenski in drugi publiki za pouk in razvedrilo, da propagiramo slogo in enotnost, da širimo bratsko zavest in ljubezen, da pre ko njega agitiramo za naša društva in ustanove, da podpiramo organizirano delavstvo v njegovi težki borbi in naglašamo naše težnje za svetovni mir in sporazum. 3. Ker želja po takem skupnem progi amu izvira jz ljudstva samega, ker je dokazano s spontano in velikodušno podporo, katero smo prejeli do sedaj, je logično, da postane skupna lastnina in skupni program vseh v zapadni Pennsylvaniji živečih Slovencev in Slovenk, ki čutijo, da nam je v tako napeti atmosferi potreben takšen skupni instrument in najboljše sredstvo, preko katerega bomo govorili za vse in skupno izražali naše zahteve, zavedajoč se, da moramo biti dobro organizirani in složni ako hočemo ohraniti čast in ugled, do katerega smo opravičeni kot pošteni jn zvesti Ame rikanci. Živimo pač v viharni dobi, ko se na resnične patriote gleda z nekimi ne-ameriškimi pogledi in prezirjtpjem. Naredi- Nabavlte si *adt|o f»M|tiS OfA^tlMIllM EUkirttn. I.d.nlo.

Če klubi sprejmejo svoj delež skupne obligacije, nam bo preostalo toliko več časa za petje, godbo, obvestila in nagovore preko radia, odpadli bi apeli ali "beračenje" in ta dragocen čas porabili za druge nam vsem koristne svrhe v splošno zadovoljstvo tisočev poslušalcev, ki bodo tem bolj uživali naš gospodarski in kulturni doprinos k industrija I ni in svobodni Ameriki. Odboru pa bo s tem dana prilika, da se bo ukvarjal samo z vsebinsko stranjo programa, kar je že dovolj težko in naporno, ako hočemo dati našim ljudem takšen program, kakršnega želijo in potrebujemo v teh resnih časih, ko se odločuje usoda miru, stalnega zaslužka in tradicionalnih pravic, katere smo uživali, odkar smo prišli sem pred davnimi leti. Upamo, da je dovolj razločno povedano, zakaj se obračamo na klube, da podprejo svoj program bodisi ix blagajne ali pa priredijo kako veselico v ta namen. Isto tako naj store večja društva. Aktivni prijatelji pa bodo naredili svojo dolžnost, kakor so jo vršili do danes, pa bo naš radio program zasiguran *a dolgo dobo. Program se oddaja vsako ne MJo od n ;io do 12 nr# /j. na postaji Wl.OA. Ta postaja nam je zelo naklonjena in je v rokah dobrih Slovencev. Dobite jo na 1550 dial. Odbor vam jamči, da bo upošteval vsak dober predlog in na-syet, pa vas vljudno prosi, da mu sporočite vaše želje. Za upravni odbor: George Witkovlch.

KARTNA ZABAVA IN PLES DRUŠTVA 16 SNPJ Milwaukee. Wis. — Društvo Sloga 16 SNPJ bp priredilo kartno zabavo in ples v nedeljo, 9. novembra, v dvorani SST. Kartna zabava se bo pričela ob dveh popoldne, zvečer pa ples, za katerega bo igrala Bashelova godba. Kartna zabava se bo pričela že popoldne zato, da damo malo užitka tudi tistim članom in prijateljem, ki mislijo, da so že v visokih letih, a se radi zabavajo s kartami. Seve, zvečer bo tudi veliko veselja in rajanja za vse, kajti kadar zaigra Louis Bashel, se vse vrti, staro in mlado. Ne zamudite te zabave in pripeljite s seboj tudi prijatelje.

F. Fifolt CLEVELAND, Ohio.—One of the finest non-profit affair« that the Comrade Lodge ever'sponsored was its annual Halloween Party at the SNPJ Farm, Saturday, Oct. 25. A perfect night greeted .the early at- ' Walking into the hall, which was boarded up, they gazed in surprise and wonderment at the fine job decorating that the gang did. The completed fireplace was inspected and met with approval of everyone present. Some did state that there was one thing wrong with it, it was too good for the building. Frankie Mauer and his sensational band did a very creditable job of playing for the gang until the early hburs of the morning. Betty Jartz, Frank Sebenik and one youngster copped the prizes for the costumes. Vic Vehar held the lucky ticket for the door prize. Rose and Antoniette Skok, Pauline Spik, Albina Vehar, the Yorks, Rosses, Ker-zes, Jartzes, Aggie Flanders, Fran Prešeren pitched in to see that the needs and wants of the crowd were taken care of. Lou Jartz and Shorty Zadeli had charge of the evening's festivities, promoting square dancing and an amateur hour participated by the Jartz juveniles, Dickie Grum, Comrades famous Jug Band, a fine group of Zarja singers, Bill Scherbak and the sensational baritone singer who is sweeping the country, Frankie Ross. A splendid representation from our sister lodges showed up, Agnes Jeric from the Concordians, with Eddie Stefanic, Shaver and his wife, Shorty Zadeli, Stan Zupon, Butch from the Loyalites, Johnny Spilar from the Utopians, Chuck Koman and his chick from the Spartans, the Marolts from Strugglers, Whitey Doljack from Napredne, were just i few noticed, along with dozens of Comrade members and their friends. The group who spent time in preparation and working hard for the event, were repaid by the un-inimous comments mac^e by the de»f parting guests that' they had the best time of their young lives and were already putting in their bid for the 1948 affair. Now that the hall is enclosed and has heat, the Farm will be available for indoor meetings, barn dances, roasts, etc., thruout the winter, as long as the roads are passable. Comrades Meeting A fine attendance was had at our October meeting, where pictures of the National SNPJ Day, the Chicago tournament and the Milwaukee bowling tournament were shown. Shorty Zadeli, Stan Zupon brought along Butch and his friend who secured the projector and screen and took care of the showing. They also brought along other interesting films. Coffee, donuts and cider were provided after the meeting. We wish [" express our thanks to Shorty and bis boys for their fine cooperation. General—A boy at hte Chesniks. who was enrolled in the lodge. The wllies had a rccent addition. June aiydrr announced her recent en-lagement. Recently married. Vis vtf and evennig program, all of which was very good including the professional acts. Congratulations were received from a number of organizations and I did my bit to relate the usefulness of women in our organization. I spoke with many old-timers including Joseph Radelj, France Puncer, Frank and Mary Ermenc, Mary Vasil, the secretary, Mary Musich and a number of others including Demshar, Policnik. Verbic, etc. The attendance was reasonable. The ladies were very energetic and published a 36 page program book. They are a distinct credit to the S^PJ and have always been known in their community as a progressive unit We in the SNPJ are glad to number such fine women among our ranks and are glad to pay tribute to their excellent work. • . • \ Ann Kumer was in town for a short visit. Her sister Mary Hougen with her husband and daughter from Berea. Kentucky, were here, too. We were glad to soc them and know that things are going along satisfactorily.—J o s e p h Vesely, a good friend of the Pioneers and the SNPJ, postcards from Hot Springs. Ark.—We also received a post cgrd from Lawrence apd Mary Plchman from Hot Spring! National Park.— The Toman Library Forum held a very successful lecture on cancer ten days ago. A prominent medics! man from Billings Memorial Clinic answered numerous questions. Another lecture will be held at the Toman Library thi% Friday. Nov. 7, at 8:30 p. m. The subject this week ia "Future of Organized Labor" by Gerald Fielde who is international Far Member9 of Slavne National Benefit Society and American Slovenes Struggler Lodge PAOS FIVE Workers Union.—We also received a note from Louise Lancaster from Tacoma, Wash. She senda greetings to the Pioneers for their anniver* sary. • • • Our present by-laws permit members over 45 years of age, to insure only for $500 death benefit. Likewise. it does not permit members already insured to increase the amount over $500. It seems to me that we ought to do something about modernizing these requirements. Certainly a person 45 years of age and in good health should be permitted to increase his insurance to $1000. As things stand now, people 45 years of age are just cast aside. Yet, modern times testify to the fact that many people who ar« 45 yeAfs old live for 25-30 years or even more. The SNPJ should change its by-laws to enable appll-cants 45 years of age and otherwise in good health to insure for $1000, because $500 is not enough to bury a person today.—Many Chicago SNPJ members are members of the Chicago Consumers Cooperative and it is with pleasure to note that the Co-op has opened another store, being the fourth super Co-op market in Chicago. This latest store is located at 7015 N. Clark st. • • • On Oct. 25, I had the opportunity of substituting for Louis Kramer, who is laid up with sickness, and attended the football game between Riverside-Brook field and Olenbard high schools. Buddy Kramer, a Pioneer member, plays withr the Riverside • Brookfield team. The game gave me an opportunity to reflect back on the high school days and to think how well the world would be if everything could go on in such aimple and easy manner. I thought, "if only the monop olies and the big industrialists did not make things so complicated. If only we could abolish greed and conniving. Yes, if only we could abolish the mad rush for profit and the dog eat dog system. The simple life of the community, where everyone lets xlown MtfflflfVid talks,a simple language of the common person is the real''life to have, but those who run our economic ami political system won't let us livs that way." I can understand why the average high school student thinks the grownups and the big business men are cuckoo. They still have that innocent feeling about life and know nothing of its complexities. They have not hit the hard knocks. It was a worthwhile experience for me. • * • "In Fact" comes out with a story STRUGGLERS' STAR-GAZETTE CLEVELAND.—Never before in the history of the Struggler lodge has the word frateralism meant more than at the present time. True enough, we meet our fellow members at various social functions outside of lodge affairs, and then what do we do but bid them the time of day and off we go. Now here is your chance to renew old acquaintances and really get into the spirit of the occasion by attending our Harvest Dance which takes place on Sunday, Nov. 16 at the Slovene Workmen's Home on Waterloo rd. Music by the ever-popular Pete Sokatch*! orchestra who has promised us the very best in Slovene waltzes, polkas and popular tunes of the day. Dancing starta at iL p. m. till T Each and every Struggler member is entitled free admission so why not come out and enjoy yourself? Rarely do you have the luck to get something for nothing in this day and age, especially when the cost of living has met an all level high, So for an evening of real fun and enjoyment why not attend our Harvest Dance? An invitation Is extended to all our sister lodge*, especially the Loyalites, Utoplims, Concordians. Napredne Slovenke, Comrades, Commodores and to the out-of towners as well and last but not least our senior lodges are included in the invitation as well. We'll be seeing all of you on Sunday, Nov. 16. Don't forget. I'll be expecting you! Out-o1-th»-Bi)wUng-Bag In the so-called "knockdown se rles" our Straggler girls white washed the Comrade No. 3 again and that boosted our morale a notch or two. Needless to say, we had a wonderful time last Friday.

Irt all three frays with not tod many pint. Fran Perusek with four strikes in a row met her Waterloo in the fifth frame with a difficult split. Betty Perusek consoling herself that it was the alleys and not her bowling that made her miss her spares. Mary Krnel wondering what was wrong with her bowling as she did not make her average. Lillian Henikman kept repeating to herself "thumbs out" before she Morning Stars Lodge Morning Start Will Feature Joe Umeck PITTSBURGH, Pa-Just a few words to remind you lovers of fun and frolic that the near future there will be two dances at the Slovene Hall here.

Our next regular meeting will be held on Sunday, Nov. 9, at S p. m in the Slovene Home. 1 sincerely urge all you members to try und attend these meetings for the bet terment of your lodge. At each of these meetings a drawing is heK with the winner of same having hl> or her lodge dues paid free by the lodge for that particular month. The winner, of course, must be present, so let's , see you all out in large numbers at tho next regular meeting. As I write the following words my mind Is on the future of all our clubs and social aifairs as a whole It has come to my attention In re cent years that certain individuals, organizations, or factions have been trying to bring sbout the destruction of all Slavic groups and organisations along with their clubc. Thi-can only come about by prohibiting our organisations from prlntln? their official organs In a foreign language and also by revoking their licenses to sell beer and liquor. What will become of our orgsnl-xstions In the future if we allow such things to come to passT It took our parents many years to make these organisations what thty are today and it is our loyal and un bound duty to th«»i to uphold that which they hav« molded for us and to make them even atronger in the future. The revoking of liquor licenses of our clubs gives me great concern, whethor they belong to SNPJ clubs or others. The best way to prevent this Is for each and everyone to have a club card. Now you will ask, how can one person have a card for each club that he might visit during the course of the year? You are perfectly correct in asking such a question, be csuse no one Is expected to carry s pocket full of club cards around with him, However, It would be a good practice for the Individuals who usually travel around to the various affalcs together, tu.heve el least one card for each club among them. By doing this It assures the entrance of the holder to tha tap room along with the others as his guests. Mbst af our clubs charge only 61 for social members and It la well worth It to be able to vlatt tha club* room where the affair Is being held This applies to women as well as men, so I urge you all to get club car<9 from the organisations which you visit during the course of the yelr and help to keep our clubs open for the enjoyment and pastime of all our Slovene people.

They ap peared at • suburb of Johnsown this past hummer and made a great "hit with all who heard and danced to their music, so for a full evening of dancing fun, come to the Moxham Slovene Hall, Nov. 15, dancing to start at 8:30 p. m. How many of you have seen our beautiful portable radio on display at the Moxham Hall? It sure is a beauty in ita simplicity. Its all black plastic case sure is a "knockout." We were given a demonstration of what it could do and it has a - very rich tone and works with either battery or electricity and has a wide selection of stations. This radio will be given away by our lodge and the drawing will be held at our New Year's Eve dance. The tickets are going like hot cakes, so get yours from any Trojan member before we are sold out Think what a grand companion this rsdio will make next summer when you're pieknicking, boating, riding (it plays excellently in a car) or at parties or what have you. On our "shut-in" list we have Betty Allison, Memorial Hospital surgical patient; Frank S a k s e k, Memorial Hospital, mine accident; and Charles Korber, Memorial Hospital, also a mine accident. We wish you all a very speedy recovery.—I also wish to express, on be* half of our lodge, our sincere sympathies to John Gomilar on the recent death of his wife Christine, and to Pauline Kinkella. on the fatal mine accident of her husband Johfi. ... : Our bdwling is going along in top form. Our tenpin league is now tied for first place with Triglav. Last Sunday's match was a most exciting one for their friendly rivalry, exceeding all other matches this past week. Wejl, now boys, it's time to stop teasing them like a cat does a mouse, and show them who's top man. , As for our duckpin league, we have a larger turnout every Tuesday evening and the Bums have a margin of five wins, if Tm not mistaken. There's always plenty of fun. for we do have a swell bunch of good »ports. This past Tuesday the bowler*' were measured for bowling shirts and blouses, and we'll be all dressed up, coming next bowling night. Now a reminder to all members to attend their next regular meeting and to all members and friends from hear and far to keep Nov. 15 in mind and come dance to the tunes of Les Faulk and his band. ELSIE CULKAR, 749. L. A. Lodge 615 On Active List LOS ANGELES. Calif —In behalf of SNPJ Lodge 815, I take this opportunity to thank all Brothers and Sisters for the splendid cooperation at our October 25 dance. Thanks to ail that donated, whatever it was.

Who is playing for dancing? Frank Barbie and John Zalokar's orchestra, the boys from Beachland Post Office Station. Yes, they know how to handle instruments as well as the mail. They won't hand you a love letter, but lovely polkas, great waltzes from Johann Strauss or some other composer, as well, as modern tunes. Be at the dance hall at 8 p. m. and bring your friends, too.

According to a Twentieth Century Fund report, the number of families In the United States increased by 175 per cent between 1890 and 1940, while the population as a whole gained only 110 per cent. Families with not more than three members increased from 52 per cent of the total number in 1930 to nearly 58 per cent in 1940. While the proportion of four-person families held steady, families with five or more persons fell from 31 per cent of the total in 1930 to 25 per cer^t in 1940 Xtna* Trees Skipped Co-op All the Way GREENBELT, Md. (CNS)— Shipment of a carload of Christmas trees from co-ops in Nova Scotia to coops in the Washington area, has been arranged for by the Greenbelt Consumer Service. The Shipment is significant both as an example of international cooperation and as a producer-consumer relationship, states Sam Ash-elman, general manager here.

Oct. 24. at the North Star Hall, with a fair attendance. But it has happened again, the right person wasn't there to collect the $7 door prize. Bro. Bill Suznik's name was called, but it seems he had another engagement for that night. Next month the door prize will be $8. Are we going to have a winner then? Remember, Brothers and : Sisters, if we don't have a winner before the end of the year, the money reverts back to the treasury. I'm sure one of you could use a little extra money. Remember, Thanksgiving means turkey and a nice one can be bought for $8. besides all the trimmiqgs. And then, Christmas will come, and a little extra money oould buy a nice gift for a loved one. All you have to do to win this money is, come tp the meetings. We voted at our meeting to hold our regular meetings at 2 p. m. on the 4th Sunday of the month during this winter. .And a good way to keep track of this is to put a circle around this date on your calendar. At our next meeting, we will discuss plans for a children's Christmas party, so come out and let's hear your ideas on this worthwhile subject, j A very nice lunch was served, which was enjoyed by all in attendance. We extend congratulations to the Steve Brockners on their new baby. Bro. Rudy Kranker has the foundation for his new barn all iii, but a much needed rain is going to hinder him in putting up the rafters and the rest of the barn. But the rain will help the plowing situation. And if it doesn't turn cold after this, we may be able to pick some flowers again. The writer has d couple of rose bushes that are nice and green again, all leaved out. Also saw some bloodroots in blossom last week. Her neighbor picked some violets a few days ago. Our hard time dance plans are well under way, and from whispers dropped here and there, I think the true Halloween spirit will prevail. I will write more the first part of next month.

"Share and share alike," the teacher said distinctly, as she boxed my esrs. I can't say I was affected by such propaganda, but there is no telling how many American youngsters have had their free-enterprise instincts discouraged by this kind of thing. In order to counteract such poison, we ought to have a super-colossal anti-Communism epic in technicolor. I suggest the following scene: A typical American family ia seated at the dinner table. As soon as the maid and butler retire to the kitchen, Robert Taylor, the father, savs grace.

Gerhard Hirschfeld noted that the present unemployment compensation system was never intended to protect the workers during a major economic collapse. If there were 12 million jobless In the first year of another depression, he said, only one-half would be eligible for any benefits whatsoever. If the depression were to continue into a second and third year, the great majority of those eligible would exhaust their wage ereditf and be forced to seek aid through relief, soup kitchens and work projects.

HEDRICK , ' • ■ • BOSTON—(FP)—A grand scale offensive which, if properly carried out, will unsest reaction in Washington in 1948 wss laid down by the CIO's ninth constitutional convention here., Stirred by sharp self criticism of |____ widespread failure to do a job in 1040, delegates returned home de-termed to dig in on the local front for a major effort next year. Aside from some frothy and spec-tacular features, the Boston convention of the CIO was most noteworthy for its repeated stress on political action. The kernel of the plan is a voluntary dollar contribution from every CIO member, to set up a fund of 10 million for CIO-PAC; the enlisting of a million block workers— to ring doorbells and pound slde-wslks in the precincts snd wards, registering voters and explaining iasues. The target ia 00 million voters, all eager to knock over'the men who supported the Taft-Hartley act and killed price control at the bcheat of the Natl. Assn. of Manufacturers. While the CIO has adopted ambitious programs before, there was • new stress on grass-roots work, on seeing one's neighbor and getting him ready, eager and qualified to vote. It had a far healtier, sounder ring, and It seemed that the Taft-Hartley business hat had the wholesome effect of msking the job appear as tough as it is. Coupled with this progrsm is the renewed expression by CIO Pres. Murrsy that the AFL rank-and-file will work along with the CIO in the nclghborhooda because the issues are identical, There was a universal feeling, it seemed, that with political and economic freedoms already threatened, the workers of Americs must get into fighting togs snd win the 1048 struggle with American monopolists and their spokesmen. Although the CIO has put aside the thought of a third party in 1048. it cast no laurel toward the prnsent occupant of the Whit« House Indeed. Pres Truman's nsme was scarcely mentioned, never cheered, while Murray took occasion to charge the Truman administration with being "derelict in the performance of Its duties" to the people. The CIO leader, ft elected to seive his eighth yesr, ha« moved farther to the right and become more publicly critical of the CIO's left wing Hut Murray's hand remain* firm on his spear when he ridet hard against greed and monopoly. and he battles strongly against outside forces daring attack the CIO He< «use of the international situa- tion, great stress was placed on the appearance of Sec. of State George C. Marshall before the CIO. Marshall's speech backing up U. S. foreign policy was followed by adoption of s resolution thst pledged th4 CIO to work for peace, univer-ssl disarmament through the United Nations and Big Three unity. Though the foreign policy issue wss set out ss the big fight of the convention, every spesker who arose spake FOR the resolution. The differences, right snd left, were interepretstions of what speakers thought or wanted the text to mean. Domesticslly, the convention called for an immediate special session of Congress to restore price control and rationing of scarce foods. Despite this action, however, Pres Murray said that there "is nothing in the offing that will reduce prices" and in "the absence of that, we are going to ask for v^age increases." Actually, there was little hope among the delegates thst a special session would be called to turn the tide on inflation. Most believed another round of wage increaacs would be necessary. fits would range down from a maxi mum of about $500 a year. Asserting that no one solution could h^eet the problem of a major depression, Hirschfeld said possible measures to help the workers through sn economic collapse could includ«- guaranteed employment, new job-creating industries, public works, private savings and severance pay. More Needy Children Calling on Social Security Funds WASHINGTON — (FP) —The number of dependent children given financial aid under the Social Security Act has increased 59% sine« V-J Pay, the Social Security Administration said Oct. Mr Chief cause of the incressed need for aid under the federal-stste progrsm, said Federal Security Administrator Oscar L. Ewing, has been the skyrocketing cost of living. Other causes he gave were loss of employment, especially layoffs of mothers who had worked in wsrtime jobs, and the loss of servicemen's dependents allowances. In August 1047 more than a million children in 400,000 families were given public assistance under tHfc act. Congress incressed payments to the states for the joint program in 1948, but Ewing said price rises since then have already canceled out the Improvement in the law' In some stales.
