Maršal Tito sprejel delegacijo reprezentantov ameriških cerkva Vprašanje odnošajev med Jugoslavijo in Vatikanom predmet razgovorov. Komentar ameriške zunanje politike New York.— (Tanjug) — Maršal Tito je sprejel delegacijo reprezentantov ameriških protes-untovskih cerkva na Bledu. De-legacija, katero tvorijo dr. Em-ory Stevens, dr. Guy Emery Shipler, dr. Samuel Trexler, dr. Howard Melish, dr. George Buckner, dr. Claude Willikms, dr. Philip Elliot in dr. Jean Nussbam, se nahaja že več dni v Jugoslaviji. Razgovor med Titom in člani delegacije je trajal skoro eno liro. Na vprašanje delegacije glede sedanjih in bodočih odnoša-jev med Jugoslavijo In Vatikanom je Tito odgovoril: "Ne vidim možnosti zboljšanja, toda zavisno ni od nas, tem-^ vec od Vatikana. Ako bo Vatikan še nadalje vzrok nepozi-tivnega stališča duhovščine napram državi, se bodo odnošaji razkrajali. Situacija je skoro dozorela za prelom. Zdaj še ni znakov za prelom ,ker smo potrpežljivi. Glavni vzrok tega je iocialni red, bojazen za položaj, katerega je Vatikan prej vzdrževal. V času avstro-ogrske monarhije je bil Vatikan mogočna lila. Bila je katoliška država, čeprav so bile druge vere v državi. Glavna vera je bila katoliška in Vatikan je imel važne pozicije v državi. Njegove pozicije so bile omahne po razsnhr 'svstio^ogrske1 države, ko so bile ustanovljene nove države v južnovzhodni Evropi, med temi Jugoslavija. Izguba pozicij je znižala vpliv Vatikana. Socialni oziri igrajo važno vlogo, zlasti ekonomski o-ziri. Prevzeli smo cerkvena po-lestva in jih dali ljudstvu, toda cerkev je obdržala določene od-»totke lastnine. Župnije in samostani so obdržali več hektarjev zemlje. Omeniti moram, da katoliška cerkev v Jugoslaviji poseduje veliko premoženje v poslopjih in stanovanjskih hi-bh, katerih ni država prevzela. Cerkev mora plačevati davke na to premoženje, kot jih'plačujejo drugi. V slučajih prevzetja po-«lopij za javne urade se plačuje itanarina." Člani delegacije so potem Polagali Titu, naj komentira «meriško zunanjo politiko. Nerad komentiram ameriško «inanjo politiko zaradi našega blišča, ki je tudi moje stališče, «i* bilo izraženo v izjavah na-™ reprezentantov v Združenih državah," Je dejal. "Dodati ni-ničesar, lahko pa rečem, JVn®m je žal, ker niso odno-«Ji med Jugoslavijo in Ameri- toljü y naši deželi je bila ™*nka vedno popularna. Nohtno je. ker ni razumevanja. * mi, da ameriška javnost M Wormirana o resničnem po-v Jugoslaviji. Želimo, se zve resnica o vsem, «r je dodaja. Ameriška javnost " bl Ved«l«. da ima prijatelja ' J«wslsviji in da naše stali-^ m sovražno napram Ameri-.. J**»nična poročila o Jugo-T'/1 «rijo v Ameriki gotovi u 'iiiki krogi." (razgovorov s škofom Hurleyeih, reprezentantom Vatikana v Jugoslaviji, je Tito dejal: "Reči ne morem ničesar konkretnega o vlogi škofa kot di-plomatičnega reprezentanta Vatikana. Videli in ugotovili bomo, kaj Hurley hoče in kakšno vlogo bo igral. Bodočnost bo pokazala, ali je on za zboljšanje odnošajev ali ne. Škof Hurley je prišel v Jugoslavijo takoj po končanju vojne. Obiskal me je in dal sem mu točne podatke o gotovih aktivnosti katoliške cerkve in celo knjigo evidence zločinov in prestopkov nadškofa Stepinca, za katere je bil obsojen v zapor, toda od Hurleya še ni odgovora. Po razgovoru z njim so se odnošaji s katoliško cerkvijo poslabšali. V Jugoslaviji se silno trudimo za rekonstrukcijo dežele. Naši ljudje so se lotili dela z navdušenjem. Zgraditi je treba vse, kar je bilo porušenega v vojnem času ter zboljšati življenske pogoje. Ako nam nekateri katoliški krogi nočejo pomagati, nas ne bi smeli ovirati." biaju da ortha unija kampanjo J^bu,Kh, Pa , 12. svg.—Jek-r** l,n'ja.

Gibanje predstavlja potencialno silo 37.000.000 delavcev, "V letih od dobe Sameula Gompersa sem bil proti ustanovitvi tretje politične stranke." je rekel Tobin na konvenciji svoje unije. "Časi so se spre menili in morda se bom premislil. Upanja za ustanovitev tretje stranke ni. dokler ne bo delavsko gibanje združeno." Tobin je v svojem govoru pred delegati naglasi! opozicijo proti komunizmu. Rusi »o je primerjal pošasti, ki dviga svojo glavo nad Evropo Dejal j«, da je komunizem prišel tudi v Ameriko in da povzroča večje sitnosti kot Zveza ameriških tovarnarjev stev v borbi proti tomu zakonu.

Naznanjeno je bilo» da se bo preiskava obnovila 17. novembra, kar pa je dvomljivo. Kot vzrok ustavitve preiskave je Ferguson on>enil odsotnost Johna W. Meyer j i, Hughesove-ga publicijskega ^genta, ki je prirejal bankete iS zabave visokim vojaškim častnikom. Hughes je dejali da je ustavi* tev preiskave popolna opraviči-ljlvost njegovega dela v vojnem času. On je napadel senatorja Brewsterja.

Skoraj vsakdo ima tam tudi kakšnega znanca ali prijatelja, marsikdo tudi sorodnike, ki ga bodo radi sprejeli pod streho. Priporočljivo pa je, da jim pišete, da pridete tja in smo| sigurni, da v tem primeru ne boste v škripcih za' prenočišče. Clevelandska federacija društev SNPJ ima tudi posebni stano-] prav tako pomagajo člani Vipavskega raja. Na farmi je potrebno izvršiti Je veliko dela ¡jred otvoritvijo.

Storite to in Se brez skrbi podajte v Cleveland na "SNPJ Day", * Odkar smo zadnjič imeli Dan SNPJ, je minila že cela doba, ne Sicer po letih, marveč po svetovnih dogodkih. Po letih je minilo komaj štiri, odnosno pet let, po dogodkih pa celo stoletje ali še I hvaljuje Slovenski zadružni zve-več. V tej dobi, ko nismo praznovali Dneva SNPJ, so bile zbite zi za stojala za kuhirtjo, katera na tla vse osiščne države s Francijo in sploh vso Evropo vred, mo-1 je darovala farmi. Naj gočni sngleški imperij zelo oslabljen, na svetovni pozornlci pa sta vstali dve novi velesili, Sovjetska Rusija In Združene države Amerike, ki se zdaj borita za dominacijo Evrope in po implikacijah tudi za vso Azijo. V lsseh sta si dva svetovna gospodarska sistema, svet preteklosti in svet bodočnosti. Še nobena genera cijs in tudi več generacij skupaj ni bilo priča zgodovinsko tako velikim dogodkom, tako veliki svetovni revoluciji kot smo jI pri- ča ml^^HII^H^H Nsš zadnji Dan SNPJ smo v velikem obsegu praznovali leta 1042 v Clevelandu. Takrat je bila dežela že z vsemi silami zakopana v vojno "proti fašizmu", za "Atlantski čarter", "štiri svobod-ščine" in seveda tudi za-"demokracijo". Vladajočim silam so v vsaki vojni potrebna visokodoneča gesla. Vojni napori so v onih dneh bolj in bolj paralizirali tudi vse naše društveno! kulturno in družabno življenje, v glavnem vsled pomanjkanja gasollna ln vsakdanjih potrebščin, vključivši opojne pijače, brez katere al sploh ne moremo misliti naših "veselic". Ko je prišlo na okrog leto 1943 in z njim pomladni in poletni! dnevi, je postalo jssno, ds bo moral tudi nsš Dan SNPJ na polico, dokler vojni plameni ne ugasnejo. Tisto leto je to "čast" rešila čikaška federacija društev SNPJ, ki je nahitro sponsorirala to našo "narodno" slsvnost skupno s praznovanjem 30-letnlce mladinskega oddelka jednote. Tista slavnost, čeprav je bila dvadnevna, je bila seveda le lokalnega obsega, kajti takrat je bilo tudi potovanje po železnicah že omejeno. * Z glavnim odborom vred smo upali, ds bomo lshko to slsvnost obnovili tskoj po vojni. Toda tudi v tem smo delali račune brez krčmsrjs. ftele letos so rszmere postale toliko normalne, da lah ko obnovimo ta priljubljeni praznik, ki je za življenje jednote ve-likegs pomena. Na teh slavnostih, ki so v letih pred vojno na stale povsem spontano, se nsvsdno zbere skupsj tisoče našegs člsnstvs z vsega vzhoda in srednjegs zapads. ds obnove medsebojno znsnje ln prijsteljstvo in obenem okrepe svojo prlljublj no, ugledno ter nsrodno in delavsko zavedno podporno organiza d jo. Tudi letos naj pohiti stotine in tisoče člsnstvs ns Dan SNPJ v Clevelsnd od blizu In daleč. Kot že rečeno, naj ne bo nihče v strahu radi prenočišča, urno naj prej stori potrebne korake — napiše par vrstic svojemu prijatelju, znancu, sorodniku sit predsed niči stanovanjskega odbora aestrt Opeki.

Za to priredbo je bi|o že vnaprej ve^ ko zanimanje, to pa vsled te-*a, ker nismo iipeli radi vojne nekaj let nobene večje priredbe. Poleg tegfi pa je tu4i ta prostor zel6 privlačen za tatye jriredbe, kajti odgovarja vsake mu vremenu in ie W1^0 nekaj tisoč oSeb zabava nemoteno poa streho.

Seveda, naša dolžnost je sedaj, da jim vrnemo ob prvi priliki ' P ruga priredb^ se je vršija 13 ulija v Salemu, O. Tudi ta je združenj in sicer društvo i76 J in okrožna federacija g|$ priredili piknik v Salemu. Isti dan se j? vtfija tud} federacij ska seja. JCakor so mi povedali, je £ila udeležba precej do-bra, vendar pa Še ni bila stoodstotna. Upamo, da bo priho4njjf v Power Ppintv; O. FederaciJ-ske seje se nisem mogel udeležili, ker sem moral delati. Sicer pa sem že yečkrat izpustil kak delovnik radi društvenih sej ali drugih aktivnosti, vsakikrat pa nj mogoče. Najprvo je delo, potem zabava. Upam, da ne bo zamere od Strani federScijskih zastopnikov, ker se nisem mogel kot odbornik udeležiti seje. Udeležil pa sem se oiknika, čeravno malo pozneje. Na pik nik se je nas pripeljalo pet po Hevilu m kot po navadi je šofi ral Staudohar, Kogar sem vprašal prejšnji dan za to uslugo. Kajpada, bil je takoj pripravljen. Ko smo dospeli tja, smo ¿e od daleč videli avtomobile nič koliko in nekaj avtobusov. Eden je bil iz Girarda, drugi pa iz Youngstowna in Struthersa Udeležba je bila velika. Na pikniku je bilo mnogo rojakov U ^gih naselbir., med njimi tudi gl. odbornik Petrovich Iz Clevelanda ln več drugih. Tudi Barberton je bil zastopan. Y kratkem času ne moreš priti dotiko z vsemi. Tudi Petrovichu se je mudilo domov. Zastopana so bila vsa federscijska društva Heči pa moram, da so Girardča-ni zopet pok*ža)i. da je še veliko življenja v njih, kadar gre za kako korislno stvar. Samo Iz Girarda je bilo okrog 50 posestnikov, poleg tega pa še dve god bi. Joe Uneck je bil uradni mu-ziksnt, ko pa je on prenehal igrati, je začel zabavati posetni-ke s svojo harmoniko F. Lozar, ki je prsvi mojster v tem oziru. Za napolnitev velikega avtobu sa pa gre največ zaslug Umku Kakor v preteklosti, tsko tudi danes izražam priznanje društvu ls Salems za požrtvovslpost. katere je bilo treba veliko, ds je piknik tako leno uspel. To je bil drugi uspeh treh društev in federscije, društvene blagajne kot tudi federscijska so pa precej večio. To je prsvilno. >a., katera se je vršila 27. julija. J Girardu se je zbrala skupina, (a poseti piknik v Sharonu, toda jytobus, ki io bil naročen, jim bil odpovedan, vsled tega ni bilo od strani Girarda udeležbe na pikniku društva 262, katero e aktivno pri federaciji. V r^delio, 3. avgusta, po seji društva je dem! L. Master, da je dartds piknik Slovenskega doma fa nteni/pe bj ae ga tideLe^ Žili. Takoj nas je bilo šest in v dobre po) ure sm9 bili že na po-protl Sharonu. Ker pa nam 0l bila dovolj znana pot na Va entinčlčevo farmo, smo |e ustavili pri trgovcu Bogolinu, kateri je jako aktiven pri drdštvu št 31 SNPJ. Takoj je predlagal, da nas zapelje tja. Po približno % uri smo bili že na Valentln-čičevi farmi. Naj še omenim, da je Bogoiin vozil po bližnjici, i i pa je bila zelo navpična. Pod esto (ali stezo) globoko navzdol teče potok ob deževnih dneh. Ke bi bilb prijetno, če bi zdrknili navzdol. Toda Bogoiin je že gotovo večkrat vozil po tej Bff kajti šofiral je precej hitro sigurnostjo. fr. Racich iz Girarda (nekda nji Pennsylvančan) je zdihntl: "Oho, Tony, ali vidiš, kaj je spodaj? . . ." Racich je najbrže premišljal, kaj bo če se prevrnemo v potok. Kmalu nato smo pri šli iz goščave jn zapazili pred peboj veliko avtomobilov in tri avtobuse, ki so bili menda iz Clevelanda. Zopet velika udeležba. Govoril sem z br. Gar-mom, predsednikom tamkajšnjega društva, kakor tudi federaci je, in se je povoljno Izrazil < izjdu njih piknika, ki se je vrši prejšnjo nedeljo. Torej uspeh vsepovsod v okrožju vzhodnega Ohia in Pennsylvanlje, kjer ima sedež federacija društev SNPJ Ko je bilo že prvecej pozno in če se ne motim,' smo natakarje že precej posyäiLi, pravi Muster ki je lfitel v oskrbi transporta cijo, da je naš voznik že pri pravlj^i.

III.—Ni še dolgo, ko se je vršila v Clevelandu konvencija SANSa, s katero so ime-* li pridni clevelandski društve-niki ogromnega dela, ki so ga mojstersko izvršili. Sedaj pa se tam zopet pridno pripravljajo za proslavo narodnega dneva SNPJ. Sodeč po delu in načrtih pripravljalnega odbora, kakor tudi po rekordu, ki ga imajo Clevelandčani v takih stvareh, bodo tudi to proslavo dobro izpeljali. Toda moj namen je opozoriti na neki drug dogodek, ki je tudi zelo važen za članstvo SNPJ v Clevelandu in za našo jedno-to, namreč otvoritev nove plesne dvorane na izletniški farmi SNPJ, ki se bo vršila v nedeljo, 24. avgusta. Na prvi pogled rta bi lahko komu videlo, da je neumestno iz Chicaga oglašati priredbe v Clevelandu, toda naši društve-niki v Clevelandu, zlasti pa še "fprmerji", kot se ponosno na- Svajo aktivni odborniki in de- vci pri izletniški farmi, he morejo pozabiti, da sem bil tudi jaz nekdaj njihov "farmer" in me od časa do časa pozivajo; naj kaj napišem o "naši" farmi, češ, "tebi, kot bivšemu predsedniku, je vse znano." Kaj naj napišem? Marsikaj bi lahko napisal o teh naših u-darnikih-"farmerjih", o njihovem nesebičnem delu za td našo edinstveno kolektivno podjetje, katerega vrše zastonj že zadnjih osem let, a v nedeljo, 24. avgust«}, bodo slavili sad, tega dela z otvoritvijo nove dvorane. Naj danes le omenim, da mi v srcu dobro de, ko od daleč gledam živahno aktivnost odbora in drugih društvenikov, ki jim je drago to zadružno podjetje, ko vidim, da so še vsi stari odborniki še vedno aktivni in navdušeni in delavni za farmo SNPJ, da John Šorc še vedno skrbi za vse, kot bi bila farma njegova, enako Theresa Gorjanc in njen mož Andy, prav tako Frank Šusteršič, Blaž Novak, sestri Tratnik in Šubel, Andy Božič (z), John Strancar, Joe Fifolt, Petrovcic, Vidrich, Ba Šel, R. Jurman, Penko in mnogi drugi. Razveseljivo je tudi dejstvo, da se je zavzela za izletniško farmo tudi mladina, zlasti članstvo društev Comrades in Uto-pians. in danes je precej mladih članov v odboru. Za oskrbnika je Tony Kerže, predsednik društva Consrades. Njega se spornih j am Še iz časa, ko sem se učil za tiskarja in mi je večkrat pomagal pri delu. On izhaja iz dobre jedhotine družine in bo gotovo vršil delo po svojih najboljših močeh. ' tlovolj o tem. Na koncu že-lirp poudariti, da je otvoritev nove, rttoderne dvorane pomem ben dogodek za članstvo SNPJ v Clevelandu in ostale Slovence v metropoli, zato naj vodi pot dne 24. avgusta slehernega zavednega Slovenca in Slovenke na izletniško farmo SNPJ! Ob tej priliki bo podan tudi kratek pfogram. Naj še omenim, da mi je John Šorc sporočil, da bo 30. avgusta na farmi igrala Bajcova godba iz Fairporta, dalje bo priredil farmski odbor piknik v nedeljo, 7. septembra, dne 14. septembra bo skupni piknik farmskega ženskega odseka in krožka Progresivnih Slovenk. Ves dobiček tega piknika bo porabljen za nabavo kuhinjske opreme. f MIlan Medvešok. >1 ' U/< II 1 o LEP PRISPEVEK IZ ZAPADNE METROPOLE Pueblo. Colo.—Tukajšnja podružnica štev. 109 SANSa je dne 11. maja t. 1. priredila igro "Hčerka iz zadrege", v korist SANSu in stari domovini. Prireditev je prav izvrstno izpadla v vseh ozlrih, zakar naj bo izrečena iskrena. zahvala vsem igralcem, vsem delavcem in sploh vsem, ki so se trudili, da je bila ta prireditev tako lep uspeh. Hvala gre pa seveda tudi vsem udeležencem. Čistega prebitka od igre je bilo $385.27. Društva in klubi pa so plačali članarino: Društvo Orel 21 SNPJ $15, društvo Slo van 3 ZSZ $12, društvo Western Star 16 ZSZ $10, S. S. P. društvo Pomoč $6, Slovenski dramatični klub Zora $6, in pevski zbor Slovenec $6. Posameznika sta darovala: Frank Pechnik $5 in Francse Korošec $5 Na glavni urad SANSa je bil poslan ček v znesku $500, od katerega gre polovica SANSu, druga polovica pa v sklad otroške bolnišnice v Sloveniji.

Namen tega komiteta je zbirati sredstva ter po svoji pomoči pomagati moralno in materialno v borbi za zaščito svobodnega tiska, to je tiska, ki se upa javnosti povedati resnico, ki prizadetim strankam ni ljuba ter jo skušajo zatreti z intimidacijo sodnij-skega postopanja ter dejansko tožbo napram listu, ki morda nima gmotnih sredstev za svojo obrambo. Kot je bilo v raznih listih že poročano, gre v prvi vrsti zaradi tožbe, ki jo je proti Enakopravnosti vložil bivši ravnatelj Gospodarske zveze v Ljubljani g. Franc Gabrovšek, sedanji pomožni duhovnik pri fari sv. Vida v Clevelandu ter nedavni član osebja v nekdanjcVn informacijskem centru jugoslovanske kraljeve vlade v New Yorku, zaradi objave gotovih člankov izpod peresa glavnega tajnika SANSa o poslovanju ravnatelja omenjene Zveze ter gotovih ne-rednostih krajevnih predstavnikov hranilnih in posojilnih ustanov. Vse informacije o zadevnem predmetu ao bile povzete ali citirane iz serije člankov in ponatisov korespondence med Gabrovškom in osebami, ki ao bile odgovorne za objavljene ne-rednosti. Na rokah se nahajajo tudi legalizirani dokumenti in uradno overovljene listine, ki so služile za podlago originalnih člankov v listu Nova zadruga. Zavedajoč se pravca, da nobena stvar toliko ne bode v oči kot resnica, je SANSov tajnik objavil dotične Članke ter tako pomagal javnosti spoznati, kdo in kaj so nekateri gospodje, ki so v SANSu vifieii svoje zlato orožje le toliko 4asa, dokler je SANSov program ostal le na papirju, a spoznali v njem največjo nevarnost xa svoje osebne ln politične interese, ko je pričel odbor svoj program tudi dejansko izvajati. 1st) goe^odje, ki so v ozadju tožbe, so tudi v glavnem odgovornf, tfk'tf&fenskfl javrtost v Ameriki dolgo časa ni vedela resnice o pravem položaju v stari domovini, a jo je SANS z velikimi težavami vaeeno ob pravem času ugotovil in pr/vilno tolmačil. Izvrševalni odbor SANSa je na svoji redni se)i dne 10. julija z zadoščenjem vzel na znanje organiziranje tega novega odbora ter vse njegovo dosedanje delo odobril. Iz upravnega sklada je tudi izplačal znesek $1000 za prve legalne stroške ter obljubil odboru še vso mogočo bodočo moralno in materialno podporo. Izvrševalni odbor obenem apelira nu vse podružnice, podporna društva, napredne ustanove ter na posameznike, da ustanavljajo krajevne odseke Narodnega odbora za svobodni tisk ter zbirajo prispevke za njegove namene. Ve« neporabljeni denar bo izročen SANSu za izvajanje njegovega programa. Denarni prispevki se naj pošiljajo naravnost na blagajnike odbora: John Pollock, 2446f lakeland Avenue, Noble, Ohio vsa druga kores|x>ndenca se pa naj naslovi na tajnico: M rs. Jo-icphine Tratnik, JI 16 East 7ht Street, Cleveland S, Ohio. • Sansovl filmi is Slovealie Ob času SA in So ve konvencije so bili predvajani prvikrat novi zvočni filmi iz Slovenije, ki ne zanimajo samo one izmed nas, ki prihajamo iz starega kraja, temveč tudi oni del nuše ameriške mladine, ki se zanima za deželo svojih starišev. Filmi so opremljeni z zvokom in se za-morejo vrteti le nu 16 mm zvočnem aparatu (16 mm aound pro-jeetor). Poleg konvencije so bili predvajani z velikim uspehom tudi že v Chicagu, St. Louisu, v Kansasu in deloma tudi v Penn-sylvaniji. Ti filmi so sedaj na razpolago v prvi vrsti vnem SANSovim podružnicam, zatem pa tudi drugim društvom ln organizacijam. Glavni del dohodkov od predvajanja filmov je namenjen za dobavo drugih, novejših filmov iz stare domovine ter materiala za izdelavo teh filmov. Slike so bile posnete v Sloveniji poleti 1946 ter kažejo med drugim dva zbornika ali žurna-la (zbirko raznih dogodljajev v Ljubljani, na Bledu, na Štajerskem, na Dolenjskem, v Slovenskem Prtmorju itd.) Vse bodo zanimale premične zvočne slike o fizkulturnem festivalu v Ljubljani, ki jasno kažejo razvoj telovadbe, atletike in druge športne kulture v novi Sloveniji. Najvažnejši pa je dokumentarni «film o izdajalskem početju slovenskega kvizlinga generala Rupnika, o posledicah njegovega izdajalstva, o hinavski vlogi bivšega ljubljanskega škofa Rož-mana v družbi z nemškimi zlo- Izvrstno dobra kupčija kjer lahko odprete v nekaj dneh "Cafe", kavarna s vso opremo In opravo—mixe in »toll v Jedilnici SOBA ra ples.

Those who plan to be in Cleveland Thursday evening, will profit by getting a good night's rest and, undoubtedly, will be in better mental and physical condition to follow and participate in the proceedings of the Conference. Directors, who must travel far, should take this into consideration and try to make reservations for transportation and sleeping accommodations, if possible, for arrival the evening before the Conference. Eight important topics were selected for report and discussion at the coming Conference out of many which also deserved to be included. Each of these topics have been assigned to a Director of an active Juvenile Circle and approved by the Supreme Executive Committee. A limit of 15 minutes reading time has been allotted to each topic and, after all reports have been read, will be discussed by the representatives present at the Conference. Confirmation of acceptance of these topics have been received from all but one of the Directors, and thia ia expected during the next few days. The topics are as follows: 1. "Relationship of the Lodge to its Circle."—By Mary Tomsic 2. "Duties and Responsibilities of a Circle Director."—By Ann Stromar 3. "Planning and Conducting Circle Meetings.1'—By Jennie Padar 4. "How to Build Membership and Meeting Attendance."—By Ann Bricely 5. "Cultural and Entertainment Programs—How to Organize and Develop Them"—By Frances Novak 6. "The Need and Purpose of Athletics."—By Joseph Batls 7. "Handcraft—Things We Can Make in the Circle."—Mary Aidich 8. "How to Publicize Circle Affairs and Activities."—By Ann San nemann Besides tha eight subjects listed above, which the special committee of eight Directors will submit to the Conference, there will in all proba bility be three other prepared reports, one by the Supreme President, another by (he Supreme Secretary, and a third by the Juvenile Director, each of which is expected to contain an important message having refer ence to historical events of the Society and certain outstanding functions and aims relative to its progress and welfare in the past, as well as the future. All combined should prove informative, enlightening and edu cational to those who will be present at the Conference. Since our previous report of the Conference representation, nine more Directors have signified their intentions to be at the Conference.

SNPJ Recreational Grounds At the last mooting of the committae held at the grounds it was decided that full apeed be the watchword in order to complete as much work as possible this year. The cooler will be the next item to receive attention. It was also decided to secure sufficient money by loan on notes from lodges or individuals. Before tha day waa over Bro. Novak informed me that an individual offered any amount the committee would require, which offer was taken up. The writer was also del-legated by the committee to request the supreme board at their August meeting to give consideration to a substantial donation. After the meeting broke up the writer and wife atarted to line up the swing equipment, then to dig the necessaryaholes for the foundation. Bro. Sore, who has been one of the individuals responsible for pushing to completion much of the work on the grounds, took pity on us. He rounded up Tony Kerze, president of Comrades and manager of the grounds to mix the first batch of concrete. He then spotted Bias Novak, Rosie Jurmin, representative from the Struggle^« and a few more of the older members and put them to work. The digging was complet ed in no tin«. Bro Sore and the writer than finished the pouring of the footing.« On-Wednesday, tho Rosses, Kerzes, Prifatels (Joe),. John Sore and "Tony sot the swings in place and started..the finished con crete. Many thank« to Bro. Sore for the help extended/ The gang decided to tntka hlqt "boter" of the equipment.

LjCfty Mlklavec is lining up 4 regulgr jam session to take care of the rfiutfic. At the last meeting it was decided that the veterans will be given the first opportunity of dancing on the new floor, sinca they made it possible to secure the permit. After this the first dance will be auctioned off. Offers of 175 to $100 have already been received. Who will bid higher? This will be followed by dancers donating $5 or more, after which the floor will be open to the crowd. SNPJ Booster Club In order to raise money, line up affairs, etc., the committee decided it would be a good idea to have a booster club with dbes consisting of II or mora per year. From Comrades we hsd three members joining as soon as the club was announced. At our last wiener road Nellie Shine, Mary Delost, Helen Bonac and Marv Grmsek stated their $1 la ready any time.

AMBRIDGE, Pa.—The Revellers' regular monthly meeting was held on August 2 at tha Slovenian Home. Plans were made for our next picnic, which will be held on August 24. All of you who .attended our last two picnics know what a swell time can be had at Spec's Grove. So here's an invitation for all of you to come out our way on Sunday, August 24. Transportation to and from the picnic grounds will be provided. Belated birthday greetings go to our president, Tany Grandovic. and to "Michael" Smolinsky. Sorry we're late! Special birthday wishes go to Jennie Obed arid to Kate Grandovic. our secretary. (We're all coming over for some of those birthday cakes.) While congratulations are still in order, we want to congratulate our softball team on the swell job they did thto season. Winning eight games and loaing only one has given our boys the chance to go to Cleveland for the final playoffs. We're all proud of you fellows! Right here we want to thank the manager, Rudy Koaeia, who >1id a wonderful job coaching our boys. His hard work helped make our team what it to. Our thanks atoo go to Leonard Koaeia, one of our juveniles, who followed the team as bat-boy. You did a good job, Lenny. We Just received a card from pre* ident.and Mia.

The report an the picnic will be the most important item. We will also have to talk about the coming bowling season for the SNPJ Pioneer league. Likewise, we will have to decide about entering teams in the Westside SNPJ Interlodge Sunday league. Though we discussed a possible trip to Cleveland for the Notional SNPJ Day, the fact that accomodations were unavailable dampened the spirit considerably. At the meeting Friday It will be our last chance to determine if we will have a group movement to Cleveland for the Labor Day weekend. We'll have refreshments and the usual cash attendance award. • « • Clara Bakule to at St. Anthony's Hospital and Pioneer members have been asked to donate blood because she required several transfusions. All who can do so are requested to get in touch with Anne Cartier so that arrangements can be made.— During the week we had a chance to see our old friend Leo Cretnik, who used to bowl with the Pioneers. He to spending some time in Chicago and will ooon be returning to Arkanaaa to his mail route.—You've got to hand it to Milan Medvesek. He certainly does more than his share of the work for his lodge and things progressive and his frequent contributions in the Slovene section of Prosveta give the outsiders an opportunity to know of some of the activities going on in Chicago. A lodge secretary's job is continuous. There to no limit to what one can do if he wants to apply himself and the lodges who have good alert and energetic secretaries are fortunate because they can also show activity and progress.—Mike Reading is visiting San Francisco for his vacation.—We are told that it is very hot down In Kansas these days but that the evenings get cool. The Hartwegers are spending their two weeks in and around Franklin, Kansas.—And Paul and Bertha VI-dergar have gone down to look over the Smokey Mountains and the Nor-ris Dam. They say it is beautiful in that section. * • • A midget auto racer practically had his head severed by a wire the other day in a freak accident. He died moments after the accident occurred. Because midget auto racing has become a major sport and be* cause 6t the complexities in the midget auto racing, something should be done to prevent such accidents. In fact, unless larger racing tracks can be secured these fellows should not be asked to swirl around on a quarter mile track with so many possibilities of death and with no chance of any real race at all. Those of you who might have seen these midget races will agree that they are not races at sll but simply a batch of cars following one another on an extremely kk ^ track. There just ton't am?Jh°n tor any one but the le*?^! It is gruesome to read about such \ freak accident as occurred u^ racer here |n Chicago last Fr* night We're sending a protest to our Mayor to stop the race, unl^ they can get larger tracks. • • • " * interesting to note that the State of Illinois produces about 40? of all the wallpapei used in the world. Joliet seems to be the cent™ of this paper production. They sav that the Chinese were the iIrgt to use wallpaper, using it in strips to designate deaths of relatives and we are told that some of these strip« can be traced back more than 2000 years. In dollars and cenU this means a lot of business for the State of Illinois.—While we are writing about Illinois, we can report that savings and loan associations of the State increased their assets by over $64,000,000 in 1948 and that there are 488 of them functioning in the State, our Jugoslav Savings and Loan Association being one of them While most of the associations in the large cities have their savings insured, a good many of the small town associations do not.—Governor Green of Illinois has just signed a bill increasing the death limit to $16,000 on the lives of individuals who are killed in public places by automobiles or other vehicles. This will make it necessary for motorists to increase their policies from a 5/10 to a 7V4/15. The reason for this bill was the inflationary trend in the country and the low value of the dollar. * • » The Supreme Board of the SNPJ will be meeting this week in Chicago and the Pioneers are urged to get around to the SNPJ Hall and mix with them. Important indeed is the need for a good attendance at the meeting Friday night.

Our Circle and Chicago Circle both have mixed teams as neither one has a boys' or girls' team.

Waukegan had asked Perfect Circle to play a ball-game with them on Sunday morning, and so we have lined up a mixed team, just in case the plans for the two groups to play, materialize. As of now, It is not known just what time we^ will leave on Sunday morning, and two meetings are to be held this week for the purpose of practicing, and the making of neceaaary plans. We meet on Tuesday night, and then again on Friday night, at Oary playground. All members who are making the trip to Waukegan ahould attend these meetings to obtain all necessary information.

They have a very distinct way of joining the present with the past, as pictures always do, and might even uncouragr and inapire some of our leaders and active workers of the "yesterdays" to take up the torch of fraternalism and again carry on In the spirit of the "good ol' days."

By this I mean that a great many people look on atomio control as a means of avoiding the horrora of a third world war. This Is a fallacious approach. For a plan of control Is eaacntlally an Inatrument, and an instrument cannot supply what ia not ln the hearta of men. If men do not want peaee, the plan is bound to fail. Only genuine /riendahlp among the great powers can guarantee mankind against an atomic war. Moreover, a new war will bring other weapons which are fully as destructive as atomic bombs —and for which no mechanical control can be devlaed, I refer to biological weapons. A few weeks ago, the Journal of Immunology published a long, hlthere-to secret report on bacterial warfare by Qrs. Theodor Rosebuiy and El-vln A. Kabat of Columbia University. The report discuaaes no fewer than twenty-five diseases as potential agents of war. Yet it docs not tell the story by half. For one thing, the Rosebury-Kabat paper deals mainly with the diseases of man. Livestock and crop dlaeases are given only passing mention, and crop poiaons are entirely omitted. For another, the report was pre- fiared in 1042. Since then, the argest biological laboratory In thr world—operated by the army at Camp Detriek, Maryland—has been Working without cease on biological weapons. So have other laboratories |n the United States, Canada, and Great Britain, and, no doubt, In the USSR. Moreover, conservative research In biology and medicine opens up new biological-warfare possibilities every day. Let me review briefly what BW (biological warfare) research is already known to have occompllshed, and what further advances are promised for the future, We shall see then that there is no way out but peaee. BW obtains weapons from the whole of medicine and biology It is, so to speak, medicine and biology stood on their hegds, Thus, mull-cine studies disease epidemics for the purpose of minimizing their damage and halting their spread, the same data show the BW re-sesreher how to make epidemics more virulent and widespread At the time Dra. Rosebuiy and Kabat prepared their report, systematic expei intents in BW had not been conducted, so far as Is known, anywhere in the world But alraady,; at least six of the possible disease weapons listed by the Columbia bacteriologists have been brought Into practicable form One is pneumonic plague, the invariably fated air-borne form of bubonic plague During the war. a small navy medical unit at the University of California developed an aerosol capable of disseminating a diaejue identified in the official announcem* nt as "one of history's oldest killers", the reference was almost certainly to the pneumonic plague The diaeaae agents developed by the army have not been disclosed Son«- of them can be identified, however, through a careful reading of published reports on accidental infections at Camp Detrurk and In othei labora torus Theae reporta ahow thai anthrax I* readily useble aa a piojec-tile contaminant to aend even the lightly wounded to bed for protruded periods- and that some oi all <>f the following can be spread by mean* of aerosol clouds, yellow fever, p*ittac««is, tularemia (rab bit fever), unduiunt fever, melioidosis fa rare fatal Slaeese of the Malay Peninsula), end rickcisiel infections sueh as typhus and Rocky Mountain spotted fever - This mi a revealing aa wrW as a formidable llal It Indicates clearlr the extent of the BW exprnmenl er s resources. A number of the dlaeases named occur very Infrequently, and rare dlseaaes are often superior weapons, for natural immunity to them is likely to be luw. Also well adapted to liW are di«r eases which are usually confined to particular sections of the globe. Yellow fever, for Instance, ia normally found only In tropical areaa with a high concentration of Aedeo acgipti mosquitoes. In those regions, a large fraction of the population has acquired immunity. But "yellow jack" can be employed elsewhere with devastating results- In order to Introduce yellow fe ver Into temperate nones, it Is necessary to change ita mode of transmission, for Aedes neylpti heron»« numerous enough to serve aa the carrier only under certain limited climatic snd environmental conditions. However, the yellow«fevei virus is easily cultivated lh the laboratory. And cultured "yellow jack" can be spread thrugh the air. That brings us to an Important point. An inexhaustible supply of dangerous biological weapons la provided by the comparatively slm pie procedure of disseminating oh1 diat ases in new ways. On the list of aerosol »pit ud infections abov< are three, besides yellow fever, which are not ordinarily a|r-bornt and which In their natural forn have little military value Tularemia is generally contracted by hand ling Infected animals; the rlcketslsl diseases are louse- and tick horn* and undulant fever comes from Infected milk But all thiee can Im transformed Into readily spread highly virulent air-borne diseases Though there art* Immunizing vaccines for plague, yellow fevei psittaonais, and typhua, they are nni therefore eliminated as biological weapons. In the first plaee, BW is an Insidious form of warfare, arid an agent may not be identified until It is too late for vaccination counter-meaaure*. Secondly, immunity can be override«! by an unusual mode of Infection, a massive doae of infectious material, or an especially virulent microbe. One of the principal activities of BW laboratories Is the cultivation of super-virulent microbe straina And it may aoon be possible to create in the laboratory wholly new disease organisms of the inost awesome power In the last few years, virus chemists, paced by the Rockefeller Institute's brilliant Wendell M Stanley, have come close to the secret of viruses, tiie most elemental of pathogenic- ofgiinisms Virtues have la-en shown to In- particles of protein, and several of Ihe rhemi cal groupings In thejr structure have been identified Out of this knowledge, Ingenious bi'M-hemists may ultimately fashion artificial neutralizing anti-bodies to pnrfert man against a wide rang* of maladies from tin common cold to |miIio and cncephalilia But thi same knowledge may first tie u« I in the construction of new and d«adlier viruses So much for tlu- d|s< n*e of man |n general.

The chemical that was to be used has never been idenfled, but there are many that could have done the job. About twenty years ago, a group of Dutch botantats began a aystu-matic study of the growth mechanism of planta. Growth, they found, involves a family uf compounds known as plant hormones ur auxins. Today, hundreds of auxina have been Identified, and auxin re-search is under way on a large sea In In every country with a slsable rhtmicul industry, for auxins ara nut difficult to manufacture and they can be made tu regulate plant growth In numberleaa astonishing and useful ways. The manufacture of one auxin. 1,4-D, which stimulates broad-leaved plunta to overgrowth and death and ao is a wonderful weed killer, is already a multi million dollar buslnesa. An« other hormone, methyl alpha-naph-thyl-aceute, keeps potatoea and other tubers from sprouting in stor* age, Still another, alphu-naphlityl-acetic acid, prevents premature dropping uf fruit from trees. Yet another promises to do away with a laborious hand "dehudding" operation now required In éobacco cultivation. Moat plant hormonea can also be used to modify plant growth In disastrous ways. Vegetables as well gs weeds, for example, are killed by 2,4-D. since both are broad-leaved plants. Any competent auxin chemist can, in fact, pick out In a few hours a combination of plant hormones capable of destroying almost any erop in any desired manlier, whether by overgrowth, destruction of root system, or Inhibition of fruiting. It is citiiHcqui-ntly no exaggeration to say that a gtirA assortment of nightmarish honors Is al the disposal of Uimorrow'a warmakars.

Truman in Kia midyear report on the economic state of the nation asserted that "Americans today live in a richer and more productive economy, and are enjoying its benefits more equitably, than ever before in peacetime history." The President's ode to prosperity sounds sUrtlingly like what was being said 20 years ago. At that time Herbert Hoover told the people: "The U.S. has produced and consumed more goods ... in proportion to popu lation than ever before in its history. Our standard of living has there tore been the highest in our history " But the "unprecedented prosperity" eulogised by Hoover was followed in a few years by the greatest economic disaster in our history. Bust followed boom because production and profits outstripped the buying power of wage apd salary earners. Today, at the peak of the inflationary boom, the same pattern is being repeated. Prices fnd profits are skyrocketing while wages lag behind. Truman in his report admitted that "temporary props" are sustaining the boom and that these props cannot be counted on to hold up much longer. Temporary Props Wobbling Prop No. l-r4he stocking up of goods by business and industry—accounted for mors than $10 billion worth of production in the past year. That prop was collapsing even as the President's report was being issued. Business purchase for stocking up purposes—inventory accumulation-came to an abrupt end in May and June. Prop No. 2 is the record-breaking export of Americsn goods sbroed. The U.S. is selling to foreign countries at the rate of $21 billion a year, about 10% of its total output. But it is importing leas than $8 billion a year. With their available supply of dollars dwindling rapidly, foreign countries within a few months must cut down sharply on their purchases unless they receive new large-scale credits and loans. Prop No. 2 Is business spending for new construction and equipment. The dollar value of this prop at the present time is at a yearly rats of $20 billion. This spending cannot be continued since industry has all but completed its reconversion program. In addition, ever-rising building costs and Increased prices for machinery and equipment will tend first to brake and then reduce the rate ef these business expenditures.

Now tha price rise is being accelerated by a new round of increaaes paced by steal and other basic industries. And while prices keep on rising, production has been easing off. the volume of industrial production as measured by the Federal Reserve Board was 100 In March. It had declined to 184 In June. Against this background, business ballyhoo about prosperity simply conceals the dangers that are multiplying. What is looming up—and nothing is being done to prevent tha economy from going into a tsilspln— has bean described as follows by columnist Mark Sullivan, a leading big business apologist: "The outcome of the present dangers, if they are not arrested, would not be a repetition of the 1029 collapse. It would be different in kind and much worse, a catastrophic inflation." what causes fascism? Addressing s gstherlng of union officlsls in New York City recently. Lm Pressman, General Counsel for the CIO, suggested thst America's fate may be like that of Oermany when Hitler came to power—if the Republicans capture tha country in 1048. Perhaps Mr. Pressman's gloomy warning will prove to be well founded. However, we disagree with the implication that, if fascism oomes to America it will be becsuse Republicans, rather than Democrats, win an election. Tor people who want both economic security and freedom, fascism is the wrong course to take. And the reason a nation takes the wrong course is because the people of that nation didn't take the right one. Voting for Democrats—or for any other party committed to the preservation of private-profit—will bring the nation to fascism. As between Wrathful Grape-% growers Demand Govt.

Th«y sdded: "Last year's raisin pries went up as high as $260 a ton, with the average around $200. Be-i of the extreme high prices, the housewife resisted and raisin consumption fell far below what It would have been if prices had been reasonable. We are asking, therefore, for a parity of $100.82." We hate'to have salt tears get into tha Csjlfornla wine, but It breaks our heart to have these profiteers squeezed like that.

Britain is trying to Uke the right course. Whether the British turned from private enterprise to democratic Socialism in time remains to be seen. However, even the British, steeped as they sre in democratic custom and tradition, could not have gone the road of capitalism forever and still remained free. Fascism, as we understsnd It, Is the use of government power to preserve a claas economy in such a manner that the workers of a nation will be held in proper relation to an owning class. There Is more fo it than that, of course: owners, too, will have to be controlled. But the main point is that workers will continue to be exploited under conditions that do not permit of freedom.

As the play is for western Europe, go it also is for the specific devel opments within the colossal powers, the United States and the Soviet Union. The greatest appeal of communism in the Slavic border states has probably been found in the land policy. The redistribution of the land has naturally given the new regimes e tremendous hold upon the present owners of such properties. They must feel that life depends upon the maintenance of the present order. The question of land reform in Poland is as old as most of our history. For century after centry the 10,000 great and privileged landowners wére able to frustrate the desires of cottars and renters add workers for more liberal plots of the soil of the country. The landed Entry owned three-fourths of the nd of Poland. Together with , the military caste and the court nobility they formed the base of every antisocial regime the nation had, and that meant practically all of them Right up to the First World War, millions of Polish citizens struggled under the hardships of serfdom. During the years 1018-1024 some half a hundred agrarian reform laws managed to get thru the Polish parliament, but taken in to to they got no further than to offer the workers on the land an opportunity to buy at the rate of 2000 zloty a hectare, which Is about two and half acres. I cannot say what the Polish zloty might be worth, but clearly no great area of land would be transferred at the price. Finally the Pilsodski regime stopped all reform in that direction. One of the lirst measures of the Lublin government was to declare the 19J000 Polish eetates national property. The redistribution be-gam at once, and the millions who actually worked the land also obtained possession of it. The lend reform passed the Polish national assembly with the provision that the former owners should be reim bursed for their losses. However, Nazi collaborators would not be paid s zloty, and the compensation to the more patriotic nobles wag small. They were given the choice Of accepting a farm of average size or to receive an annual payment equalling that of an ordinary farm worker. That Is hardly enough to maintain a grand style Polish noble In the old way of life. s s s in Jugoslavia the life on the farm has its own particular character; about $0% of the population are farmers on smell pieces 0/ land. The principal exception was the low country between Serbia and the Hungarian plain, where large estates might be found, but they were as a rule owned either by Hungarians or by Germans, and these people were hand in glove with Hitler ism As soon as the victory of the Allies came to Jugoslavia partisans moved in on these estates and liquidated the old order. When the Tito government finally regularized the ownership of land, the partizans kept 48% of the confia-csted soil, the remainder going to other small holders whose plots were counted insufficient for s livelihood About 2* of the land was kept to be made into school property and experiment stations. The peasants of Jugoalavia are generally counted among the moet conservative in the world. With the exception of people in Croatia and Ution, they have been taken into the modern world, where they must legrn to use books, threshing m,-chines, tractors, binders, combines Few of us in America really understand what a profound revolution Is being accomplished in the lives of some of the European citizenrv • • s In Bulgaria the country popula. tion developed in the count 0/ ma-ny generations a village culture on a much higher plane than that of most of her northern neighbors. A good deal of the progress may be credited to illegal organizations working more or less underground during the Turkish oppression. The village schoolmaster was instrumental in a great many instances toward establishment of community libraries or reading rooms where literacy was attained mostly thru the ingenuity and ihtellectual hunger of the ones who picked up the boolu. There is a surprising element of knowledge and splendor of color in the Bulgarian farm culture. In consequence the recent reforms have been carried out on a higher level there than elsewhere in the Balkans. Danish cooperative organizations have been studied and the Bulgarians stand a good chance of becoming in that region what Denmark is in Scandinavia. • s * s In Czechoslovakia the clash between owner and worker on the land was accentuated by the historical development of the country. In Slovakia many of the rich landlords were Hungarians, and in the Sudeten region they were Germant. Vengeance has entered in, snd dispossession has meant the squaring of accounts with traitors and oppressors. However, there has been in Czechoslovakia a good deal of backwardness among the farmers and the new day may at times seem as radically different as it is in the valleys of their Southern Slav cousins. - i, s s s The states west of Russia have only in a very small degree experimented with collective farms in the manner of the Soviet kolkhoz. Indeed the strength of the land reform in almost every instance vrn that large estates were broken up into small farms, so that the workers might have their own plots. But from a scientific angle it is now quite paramount that the units be large enough to permit tractor operation and the use of other time-saving machinery. Since the terrain in moat cases prohibits the formation of great collective farms, it is likely, I think, that some form of cooperative enterprise will hold the solution rather than any sweeping socialization. I know there is no attempt whatever at socisliiing the Scandinavian farming industry; but there is an urgent study of how it may b$ better planned snd msde more secure. So it will probsbly be in the Slavic border states. est I think U will be well lor us ijft* realize that what Has happened is Europe since the German capitulation hoc tn many instances been of decisive economic consequence Crystslizations are now takinl place and loyalties are being developed for which the peasants win give their lives if they sre forced to do so.
