Pentagon popravlja nekatere prvotne
trditve v zvezi s sestrelitvijo iranskega letala — Iranci sami nosijo del odgovornosti
WASHINGTON, D.C. — Včeraj je Predstavnik za tisk Pentagona Dan Howard Priznal, da je iransko civilno letalo A300 Airbus, na katerem je bilo 290 potnikov, res letelo v zračnem koridorju, rezerviranem za civilna potniška letala, ko ga je zadela protiletalska raketa, izstreljena iz ameriške križarke Vincennes nad Perzijskem morju prepeklo nedeljo. Prvotna pentagonska trditev Je namreč bila, da je letalo ta zračni koridor zapustilo.
Howard je rekel tudi, da mora Iran nositi del odgovornosti za incident, v katerem je našlo smrt vseh 290 potnikov, ker so iranski kontrolorji na letališču Bandar Abbas dovolili vzlet letalo v času, ko je na bližnjih vodah Zaliva potekal spopad med ameriški-
in iranskimi mornariškimi silami. Za ta spopad so iranski kontrolorji morali vedeti, saj je Bandar Abbas hkrati vojaško in civil-no letališče. V Pentagonu vztrajajo tudi, da so elektronske naprave na letalu oddajale signale, ki so jih na križarki Vincennes razu-jPeli kot signale, ki jih običajno oddajajo *ranska vojaška letala. Poveljnik iranskih letalskih sil pa je dejal zahodnim novinarjem, ki so bili povabljeni v Iran, da vidijo trupla ‘n razbitine sestreljenega letala — in o vsem tem seveda poročajo — da ima pri roki zanesljive podatke, ki bodo potrdili, da je letalo °ddajalo signale, rezervirane za civilno letalstvo. Rekel je tudi, da bo te podatke posredoval posebni komisiji Pentagona, ki zbira Podatke na kraju samem.
V ameriškem Kongresu je slišati glaso-Ve> naj bi ZDA plačale odškodnino druži-nam ubitih potnikov. Predsednik Reagan te ’Možnosti ni izključil, prevladuje pa mnenje tako v Beli hiši kot Kongresu, naj bi bila mo-žna odškodnina plačana neposredno svojcem potnikov, nikakor pa ne iranski vladi.
Najvišji predstavniki Irana še trdijo, da se bo Iran maščeval za incident, vendar ne Sredo v nobene podrobnosti in tudi ni še Prišlo do nobenega dejanja s tem v zvezi. V Libanonu grozijo razne muslimanske teroristične skupine, ki imajo v svojih rokah ame-riške talce, da bodo nekatere teh ubili, a tudi Jti še prišlo do tega. Zaenkrat skušajo Iranci, 01 pravijo poznavalci iranskih razmer, iz-°riŠčati sestrelitev letala za njihove propa-Sandne namene. Maščevalne akcije, predv-sem pa umor talcev, bi tej kampanji škodo-vale.
V Tehranu organizirajo Iranci množič-ne demonstracije, v katerih nosijo demon-slranti po ulicah krste, v katerih so baje tru-P 3 nesrečnih potnikov. Nosijo pa tudi števil-na bandera, na katerih so napisi tudi v dobri 'tNgleščini, kar potrjuje sum, da so demon-acije v precejšnji meri organizirane za P ‘vanje na svetovno javno mnenje, kajti n8leŠčina ni uradni jezik Irana.
Eksplozije in požar na naftni ploščadi na evernem morju terjale do 166 človeških žlv*jenj — V Teksasu se zrušila trgovina

so pa bili na majhnem čolnu blizu ploščadi. Od teh 230 je nesrečo preživelo 64, našli so 17 trupel, 149 delavcev pa še pogrešajo in so mnenja, da so tudi ti mrtvi. Gre torej za najhujšo tovrstno nesrečo v zgodovini.
Ploščad je bil v delu Severnega morja, ki je pod angleško oblastjo. V parlamentu že govorijo predstavniki opozicijske laburistične stranke, da je konservativna vlada Margaret Thatcher namerno ignorirala varnostne naprave na teh ploščadih, kar vlada seveda zanika. Ga. Thatcherjeva je dejala, da bo preiskava ugotovila, zakaj je do nesreče prišlo in tudi svetovala, ali so potrebni novi, strožji varnostni ukrepi.
BROWNSVILLE, Tex. — Včeraj popoldne se je nenadno zrušila 3-nadstropna trgovina, v kateri je bilo veliko ljudi, ki so ali kupovali ali iskali zaščito pred močnim deževjem. Vremenarji pravijo namreč, da je padlo v manj kot pol ure več kot dva inča dežja, to pa naj bi bilo pretežko za streho trgovine. V ruševinah so reševalci našli več kot 40 ljudi, 8 trupel, danes zjutraj pa pravijo, da so slišali klice vsaj pet drugih ljudi, ki so še vedno pod ruševinami. Reševajci ne vedo, koliko ljudi je še pogrešanih, kajti je trgovina tik ob reki Rio Grande in je bilo po vsej verjetnosti več kupcev, ki so bili mehiški državljani.
Dukakis zavlačuje glede izbire svojega podpredsedniškega kolega — John Glenn
Se ravuni — George ouafi »aisicciufc
BOSTON, Mass. — Zadnje dni se verjetni demokratski predsedniški kandidat Michael Dukakis posvetuje s številnimi strankinimi prvaki o podpredsedniškem mestu. Vodilne kandidate za to mesto vabi v Boston, da se z njimi pogovarja. Po dobro poučenih vesteh, je ohijski sen. John Glenn še vedno favorit, vendar zadnji čas kaže Dukakis precejšnje zanimanje tudi za kongresnika Leeja Hamiltona iz Indiane in za sen. Williama Bradleyja iz New Jerseyja. Tudi Jesse Jackson ni še povsem izključen.
Dukakis ima sedaj precejšnje težave doma v Massachusettsu, kajti ima država velik proračunski primanjkljaj, s katerim seje treba soočati. V svoji dosedanji kampanji je Dukakis namreč močno poudaril gospodarski čudež v Massachusettsu, za katerega je vzel največ kredita, in tudi, da je^zelo dober upravnik. Kar naenkrat pa ima v državi več sto milijonov dolarjev primanjkljaja in je bil Dukakis prisiljen pristati na določeno povišanje davkov. Vse to pride zelo prav republikancem.
George Bush v zadnjih anketah javnega mnenja, znatno napreduje napram Dukaki-su. Zanimiva in baje tudi velika težava za Busha, je ta, da ga ženski spol sploh nima rad. Ankete kažejo pač, da celo precejšnja manjšina republikank pravi, da bo glasovala za Dukakisa, ker se zdi bolj simpatičen kot Bush. Bush prednjači med moškimi, a je njegova šibkost med volivkami lahko usodna za njegovo kampanjo.

Slovenci in slovanski jug
Ko v tehle dneh napetost med Ljubljano in Beogradom v zvezi z zaporom Janeza Janše, Ivana Borštnerja in Davida Tasiča raste in se bliža novemu vrhu, je prav, da za boljše razumevanje sedanjega položaja odnosov med Slovenci in Srbi, pogledamo v preteklost, ko so ti odnosi nastajali in se razvijali.
Slovenci smo se že v osmem stoletju povezali z Zahodom in bili vključeni v Rimsko cesarstvo, ki ga je s papeževim sodelovanjem obnovil frankovski kralj Karel Veliki I. 800 in se je v nekoliko spremenjeni obliki ohranilo vse tja do Napoleona. V zahodnem kulturnem, verskem in političnem svetu smo živeli blizu 1 2 stoletij. Naravno je, da smo postali njegov del po svojem mišljenju, življenju in stremljenju k istim življenjskim ciljem na temelju istih življenjskih vrednot.
Srbi so se v 1 3. stoletju v času vlade Štefana Nemanje in njegovega sina Stefana Prvovenčanega odločili za Vzhod in postali njegov del najprej pod vplivom grškega Bizanca, nato turškega Istambula. Bizantinsko-turška miselnost je odločilno vplivala na miselnost Srbov, četudi so ti posebno v dobi turške oblasti iskali zveze z Zahodom in jih postopno tudi vzpostavili in razširili.
Razvoj Slovencev in Srbov, duhovni, kulturni in naro-dno-politični, je bil skozi dolga stoletja tako različen, da teh razlik ni bilo mogoče in jih ni mogoče odstraniti v kratki dobi dveh ali treh človeških rodov.
V	letu »pomladi narodov« 1848 so Slovenci, ki so študirali na Dunaju, v prvem slovenskem narodnem programu zahtevali združitev vsega slovenskega ozemlja v Zedinjeno Slovenijo kot del habsburškega cesarstva. To imenujemo ožji slovenski narodni program iz leta 1848, v »širšem« slovenskem narodnem programu so Matija Majer in drugi Slovenci, ki so na Koroškem in Štajerskem močnejše čutili nemški pritisk, predlagali povezavo Slovencev v narodnopolitičnem pogledu s Hrvati in Srbi (z onimi, ki so živeli v okviru habsburške monarhije).
Težnje Nemcev potisniti nemško-slovensko narodno mejo dalje proti jugu in z njimi rastoči pritisk na Slovence v začetku tega stoletja so pri teh obnovile misel na povezave s Hrvati in Srbi, ki so se tudi čutili zatirane in v nevarnosti, odkar je bila habsburška monarhija razdeljena I. 1867 v avstrijski del, ki je bil prepuščen oblasti Nemcev, in madžarski del, kjer so gospodovali Madžari.
V	takih političnih razmerah so nekateri slovenski, hrvaški in srbski politiki v habsburški monarhiji prišli na misel, da bi se monarhija iz dualistične spremenila v trialistično. Poleg nemškega in madžarskega dela naj bi nastal še jugoslovanski. Za to se je posebno vneto zavzemal dr. I. Šušteršič, vodja Slovenske ljudske stranke. Ta načrt je naletel na močan odpor v kraljevini Srbiji, katere cilj je bil združiti v svojih mejah tudi one Srbe, ki so bili v okviru habsburške monarhije. Iz tega kroga je prišel načrt za atentat na presto-
lonaslednika Franca Ferdinanda v Sarajevu 28. junija 1914. O Ferdinandu so namreč trdili, da je naklonjen preureditvi habsburške monarhije v smislu trializma.
Umor Franca Ferdinanda je sprožil prvo svetovno vojno, v njej so upali velenemški krogi na Dunaju za vselej odstraniti »slovansko nevarnost« za Avstrijo. Nemška nasilja v vojnih letih so prepričala dr. J. E. Kreka in dr. A. Korošca, da je slovenski narodni obstoj v Avstriji v tolikšni nevarnosti, da sta se odločila iskati slovensko narodno bodočnost izven nje. To se je zgodilo 29. oktobra 191 8, ko so Slovenci, Hrvatje in Srbi pretrgali s habsburško monarhijo in proglasili po načelu samoodločbe narodov neodvisno državo Slovencev, Hrvatov in Srbov pod vodstvom narodne veče v Zagrebu.
Ta država se je 1. decembra 1918 »zedinila« s kralje: vino Srbijo v kraljevino Srbov, Hrvatov in Slovencev, ki jo je kralj Aleksander I. leta 1929 preimenoval v kraljevino Jugoslavijo. Mislil je, da bo mogoče »plemena Srbov, Hrvatov in Slovencev« zediniti v »narod Jugoslovanov«.
Slovenci so to zamisel kralja Aleksandra Odločno odklonili, isto so storili tudi Hrvatje in Srbi. Vsi trije so se smatrali za polno in jasno izoblikovane narode in bili odločeni to tudi ostati.
Aleksandrov poskus je propadel, on sam je postal njegova žrtev v Marseillesu 9. oktobra 1934. Vodnikom druge Jugoslavije so na Zahodu, kjer jih kot komuniste niso marali, šteli v dobro, da so »rešili nacionalni problem«, ko so Jugoslavijo spremenili v federacijo. Niti dve generaciji nista prešli, pa je nacionalni problem v Jugoslaviji prav tako pereč, če ne celo bolj, kot je bil pred drugo svetovno vojno. V Beogradu ga skušajo nekateri znova reševati s pomočjo generalov na način, kot je to nekdaj poskušal kralj Aleksander. Vse kaže, da se nekateri ljudje v lastno škodo nočejo iz zgodovine nič naučiti!
Sto štirideset let po objavi širšega slovenskega naro-dno-političnega programa in sedemdeset let po njegovi delni uresničitvi leta 1 91 8 je sedaj 58% Slovencev, kot je ugotovil Center za raziskavo javnega mnenja pri univerzi v Ljubljani, prepričanih, da bi imeli Slovenci izven jugoslovanske federacije »nove možnosti razvoja«. Lani je tako mislilo le 58% Slovencev.
Skušnje sto štiridesetih, posebno pa zadnjih sedemdeset let so Slovence prepričale, da so Slovenci bili in so del (Srednje) Evrope ter da so za nje »nove«, boljše možnosti razvoja v svobodni Evropi in ne na Balkanu, kot so si nekateri slovenski idealisti zadnjih sto štiridesetih let utvarjali.

CELOVEC, Avstrija	dne!. julija /m
Da bi ostali vsi eno!
V enotnosti in edinosti je moč. 41 let gradimo skupaj Družbo sv. Mohorja v Celovcu. Profesor Janez Sever je našo Mohorjevo označil z besedami: »Družba sv. Mohorja v Celovcu je en velik kup dobrih volj.« Tako smo jo obnovili leta 1947, tako je rasla in tako uspeva in se utrjuje iz dneva v dan. Ko smo rajni prelat in stolni kanonik Valentin Pod-gorc in p. Odilo Hajnšek in jaz začeli, nismo imeli ničesar kot dobro voljo, zaupanje v božjo pomoč in v sodelovanje koroških Slovencev in Slovencev po širnem svetu. Nikdar nismo dvomili, da se bo posrečilo in posrečilo se je.
Papir in tisk za knjižni dar za leto 1948 je plačal mil. gospod prelat Podgorc iz svojega. Dve majhni knjižici sta bili takratni knjižni dar: skromen koledarček za leto 1948 in večernice »Vsem, ki so trpeli«. 4048 udov je takrat štela Družba sv. Mohorja v Celovcu. Leta 1937, ko smo prejemali knjige iz Celja, jih je bilo le 2.515. Leta 1987 šteje Mohorjeva na Koroškem 3.000 udov, v inozemstvu pa nekaj nad 2.000. Kakih 1.000 knjižnih darov pa gre v razne kraje in se oddaja v prosti prodaji.
Število udov pada na Koroškem in v inozemstvu. Število prodanih mohorjevih knjig pa raste: 1948: 8.000, 1987 pa
9.175. Na Koroškem smo dosegli največje število Mohorja-nov leta 1972, namreč 4.180. Mohorjeva izdaja skoraj vse slovenske in dvojezične šolske knjige. Naše založniško delo raste in se veča. Skupna naklada vseh knjig, ki jih je celovška Mohorjeva od leta 1947 sem izdala, presega 2,000.000. Vse to je dosegel »velik kup dobrih volj«, ime, ki ga Družba sv. Mohorja v Celovcu zasluži.
Prisrčna zahvala
Za svojo 50-letnico duhovništva sem prejel od velikega števila poverjenikov, dobrotnikov in udov Družbe toliko voščil, da se ne morem vsakemu posebej zahvaliti. Naj bo to skupno pismo zahvalno pismo vsem in vsakemu, ki ste mi voščili. Vsa ta pisma in voščila so mi dokaz, da je Vam vsem celovška Mohorjeva pri srcu. Hvala Vam za vsa voščila, za vse dobre želje, za vse zanimanje, za vsako spodbudno besede, za vso dobro voljo in zlasti za vsako najmanjšo in večjo podporo za naše dijaške domove.
Trudimo se za našo skupno Mohorjevo še zanaprej in storimo vse, kar moremo, da bo živela in rasla. Povezani nismo le v juridično družbo, ampak tudi v cerkveno bratovščino, da prejemamo odpustke in
molimo drug za drugega, za vse žive in rajne ude. Mohorjeva ni le cerkvena organizacija, ampak organizem, ki živi in daje življenje. Bog daj, da j> ostanejo zvestFjudi naše mlajše družine na Koroškem, v Ameriki in drugod po širnem svetu.
Naša največja skrb To so naši dijaški domovi. Enako kakor knjige, rabijo koroški Slovenci zadostno število katoliške laične inteligence. Letos je v teh dneh napravilo maturo na Državni gimnaziji za Slovence 36 fantov in deklet. En bogoslovec bo posvečen in nastavljen za kaplana. Slovenska gimnazija nam je dala nad 500 abiturientov.
Če manjšina hoče živeti, p°' trebuje izobraženstvo. Boj za dvojezično šolo in za kulturne zahteve koroških Slovencev vodijo v prvi vrsti naši številni izobraženci, ki nam jih je dala Slovenska gimnazija. Velik del teh je bilo vzgojenih v Mohorjevih dijaških domovih. V mo-horjevem visokošolskem domu Korotan na Dunaju študira lepo število slovenskil1 visokošolcev. Za šolsko let0 1 1988/89 se je za vstop v Korotan javilo do sedaj največje ] število slovenskih študentov.
In še posebna beseda, drag1 dobrotniki mohorjevih domov in naših slovenskih dijakov i11 študentov. Najprej je prisrčna Vam hvala za vse podpore ^ darove, ki jih zbirate in pošiljate za dijaške domove. K° j sem bival v Ameriki, sem sp°' \ znal in vem, kako večkrat samemu sebi manj privoščite ^ darujete velike, večje in manjše vsote za Mohorjeve domove. Vedite, da je Vaš denar dobro naložen. Prepričan seim da me ne boste zapustili v f*' nančni skrbi za naše dijašk£ domove, ko po petdesetih duhovniških letih in po dvainŠ1'" ridesetih letih skrbi za Mohof jevo še vedno kot predsedn1 nadzornega odbora, nosi111 težo odgovornosti za našo sk11' pno Mohorjevo. Prosim ^ nosimo odgovornost skup3) Če to dosežemo, bo naša sk3 pna Mohorjeva uspevala tu zanaprej. Upajmo, da bo3 bodoči rodovi obhajali še ^ letnico in 200-letnico Dru^ sv. Mohorja v Celovcu.
eO3
Kmalu bomo obhajali 8°
naših nebeških patronov
Mohorja in Fortunata - ^ 12. julija. Takrat se spomni111 drug drugega v molitvi in s k3 kim dobrim delom za Moh° jevo. Glavni namen tega P's.: pa je, da se ob petdesetlet^ svojega duhovništva vsem brotnikom, poverjenicam poverjenikom in vsem janom, ki ste mi poslali na voščila in priložili Še ^ dar za dijaške domove, z3 to prisrčno zahvalim. da bi Mohorjeva postala v no bolj in ostala še mnog3 setletja »en kup dobrih v°) da bi ostali vsi eno!

Minnesota, je bila leta ravnateljica katoliške Assumption šole in odhaja letos po 50 letih v pokoj. V avgustu bo praznovala 50-letnico redovnih zaobljub, zlati jubilej. Čestitamo! Sorodnica je Tushar-jeve Anice in Johna iz Gilberta in redno je letno zbrala med otroci pomoč za naše misijonarje in misijonarke. Pravkar ie poslala $150 za MZA odse-Itn v Gilbertu. Pravi, da bo ostala v isti redovni hiši, da pa ne bo več odgovorna za šolo in bo imenovana ena njenih sose-ster. Hvaležni smo dobri bene-d'ktinki za njeno misijonsko ljubezen in zvestobo slovenskim pionirjem. Molimo zanjo ■n tisto, ki jo bo nasledila, da bi ostala v stiku z MZA, ko bo na to opozorjena.
Električar John Tushar tudi odhaja v pokoj in mu želimo Prijetna leta zadovoljstva z ženo, gospo Anico in odraslimi otroci, razpršenimi po celi deželi.
V spomin Franka Pressa so Prijatelji darovali za MZA $2.
eč jih je darovalo za 14 sv. maš, ki bodo poslane v misijone.
Tusharjevi so obnovili vzdr-^evalnino za njihovega vzdr-^evanca-bogoslovca v Afriki, Johna Kuziona, v iznosu $250.
a- Anica je odposlala bogo-s°vcu Jacobu Ovvaga dar $75 ®d vzdrževanca g. Bernarda airier iz Scarboroughja, in ubovniku Juma v Kenijo od dobrotnice ge. Mary Kebe dar

$50. Neimenovana iz Clevelanda je poslala dar, naročnino za petkovo A.D. za enega misijonarja.
Rojaki iz Iron Rangea, ki so tako lepo že leta povezani z MZA Gilbertom, so se srečali v nedeljo 12. junija na Aurori, v fari g. Šuštaršiča. G. Jože Vovk je bil tam in skupno so obhajali slovenski spominski dan. Vedno manj je naših rojakov-pionirjev, otroci pa običajno imajo drugo zanimanje in vezi, ki niso veliko v skladu s slovenskimi izročili. Še dobro, če so se naučili malo govoriti s starši v materinščini v narečju, ki ga govorijo doma.
G. Klemen Štolcar
se iz Farafangane, Madagaskar, 9. maja zahvaljuje ge. Anici za poslani ček v stotaku njegove rojakinje ge. Mary Omejc iz zahodne ZD:
»Resnično veselo sem bil presenečen, ko ste mi poslali nepričakovani dar $100. Božja dobrota po dobrih ljudeh dosega vse konce sveta. Tudi Vi ste taka dobra duša, ki v MZA žrtvujete svoj čas in vse to urejate in odpošiljate in zraven utegnete napisati še vzpodbudne vrstice. Posebej hvala, ko obljubljate pomoč v molitvi. Tudi sam se Vas v MZA in vseh dobrotnikov rad s hvaležnostjo spominjam v svojih molitvah. Božje milosti smo pač vsi najbolj potrebni in le z molitvijo sl Jo izpi osimo. Sc
enkrat hvala za vse in Bog blagoslavljaj Vas, vso Vašo družino in vso MZA! Lep pozdrav!
Klemen Štolcar.«
Ga. Tusharjeva je sedaj odposlala g. Štolcarju novi ček za kan. $100, ki ga je zanj darovala nedavno ga. Antonija Fylypczuk iz Lethbridgea, Alberta. Tudi 14 sv. maš mu bomo dodali. Vemo, da jih bo rad opravil, ko bo mogel.
Istočasno pošilja ga. T. po-
trdila za MZA lansko pomoč g. Antonu Kerinu ($640) in g. Jožetu Letonji ($200). Oboje je priložil k svojemu pismu g. Pedro Opeka, ki sam 24. februarja pošilja zahvalo za $1050, ki jih je on od MZA prejel. Tole dodaja: »Tukaj pri nas smo v hudi vročini. Hvala Bogu, da vsaj dež pada, da malo zrak ohladi. Na žalost imamo veliko krvave driske in zaradi tega veliko ljudi umre. Reveži so, saj že itak v revščini živijo, pa jih še huda bolezen pobere. Ni razlage za trpljenje teh ljudi.
V nedeljo 21. februarja smo sprejeli 24 odraslih in mladih v pripravo za sv. krst, ki bo šele na Veliko noč. Bo to lep misijonski praznik.
Začeli smo postni čas. Ker se naši ljudje, kot so škofje napisali v pastirskem pismu, postijo skozi celo leto, pričakujejo od naših kristjanov, da bi bili medsebojni odnosi boljši in da bi bolj delali. Zavedamo se, da je lačnemu in bolnemu človeku težko delati. Molimo drug za drugega. Prisrčen pozdrav.	Pedro.«
V Parizu že leta skrbi
za Slovence g. Silvo Česnik, C.M., ki je kot svetni duhovnik šel na Madagaskar in postal lazarist ter ostal v zaledju za delo med rojaki v emigraciji. G. Rok Gajšek, C.M., pride na obisk v domovino in bo verjetno ostal v zaledju ter pomagal v Parizu g. Česniku pri dušnopastirski skrbi za našč rojake. V spominih z
nami živi po obisku tega kontinenta pred nekaj ten. ima,
ponižna duša, pa polna elana pri osebnem razdajanju za druge. Z zdravjem pa ima vsa leta kake težave. Molimo zanj! Tajnica MZA Gilbert ga. Terezija Pučko je dobila to sporočilo iz pisma naše sodelavke v srcu jugoslovanske prestolnice.
V Beogradu bo za zaključek Marijinega leta posvečena največja in najlepša Marijina Cer-(dalje na str. 4)
Prikazovanja pri Stahovici
Zadnji čas se vedno več Slovencev v domovini — vernih in nevernih — zanima za dogajanja pri Marijini kapelici v Županjih njivah v župniji Stranje. Marijin kip v tej kapelici se baje precej redno začne premikati med 10. in 12. zvečer, po nekaterih poročilih tudi dopoldne. Ljudje so pričeli prihajati iz vse Slovenije in tudi iz tujine. Uradno je slovenska Cerkev do tega pojava zelo zadržana. Več bomo poročali v našem listu prihodnji torek.
Zgoraj je posnetek Marijinega kipa v kapelici v Županjih njivah pri Stahovici, župnija Stranje. O tem kipu govorijo, da premika roki in oči, da cel kip »plava«. Spodaj pa vidite med drugimi obiskovalci tudi prof. Zdenka Roterja (spredaj) in dr. Toša (zadaj), oba iz ljubljanske univerze. Oba posnetka nam je posredoval dr. Karl B. Bonutti, ki je kraj tudi sam obiskal.

Misijonska srečanja in pomenki
(Nadaljevanje s str. 3)
kev, edina, ki je posvečena Mariji. Vse kaže, da bo umrlega župnika v Bitoli, g. Smoliča, nasledil beograjski župnik, Makedonec Peter Tašev, C.M. Na njegovo mesto pa pričakujejo g. Jurija Devetaka, C.M., ki je bil 12 let ravnatelj usmiljenk. Dober in sposoben gospod, ki ljubi petje.
Dne 25. junija je nekaj slovenskih usmiljenk srečalo sv. Očeta na KoroSkem, v Krki.
Sestra Terezija Medvešek, F.M.A., piše iz Dum Dum, Indija, da je obiskala novo salezijansko postojanko sestra, ki bo 120 km daleč in imajo v njej še 80 deklet iz najbolj revnih družin. Tudi veliko zunanjih deklet prihaja tja iz okolice kmečkih družin, ki živijo od obdelavanja zemlje. Škof domačin iz Kalkute je blagoslovil novi dispanzer in prvi kamen za novo župnijsko 'cerkev. Brala je MSIP in moli za vso MZA, da bi mogla lepo nadaljevati misijonski apostolat. V oratoriju poučuje verouk precej deklet, ki so vzgojene pri salezijanskih sestrah.
Iz Geneve, Ohio, seje 1. junija oglasil g. Frank Staniša: »Imel sem namen vnesti v testament gotovo vsoto za misijone. Ko ste objavili v zadnji AD v MSIP, da so neprilike lahko, sem namenil, da bom vsako leto raje poslal za misijone večji znesek. Danes pošljem za misijonarja Jožefa Š6-mena iz Zaira, ki ima težke neprilike z zidavo cerkve, en tisočak ($1000). Vas lepo pozdravljam	Frank Staniša.«
Blagajnik Štefan Marolt iz Clevelanda je sporočil 2. junija tele darove: Iz zapuščine ge. Olge Marolt, za pokojne Andrej in Olga Marolt za sv. maše $1000. Ga. Paula Adamič je darovala $60 za vse. Ga. Mary Štrancar, ki je bila bolna v bolnišnici in je spet med rojaki v fari doma, je darovala $50. G. in ga. Lojze Hribar sta darovala $40 za vse. Ga. Jean Brodnik, v spomin rajne matere Mary Per, za vse $25. Ga. Maria Petelin, v spomin rajnega moža Lojzeta, za vse $20. Ga. Olga Ozanič je žrtvovala za vse $20. Ga. Mari Miklavčič za vse, v spomin pokojnih Marije Klopčič-Peršin in Valentina Lavriše. G. in ga. Vinko Vrhovnik za vse $15, v spomin Valentina Lavriše. Neimenovana iz Clevelanda je žrtvovala $250 za vzdrževanje domačega bogoslovca (1 leto). G. Marolt je tudi nabavil v banki ček za $100 in oddal ge. Marici Lavriševi, da odpošlje dar g. Francu Buhu na Madagaskar v imenu Zimmerjevih v Sudbu-ryju, Ontario. Ta vsota je bila darovana njemu za sv. maše za rajnega Valentina Lavrišo, ki je nedavno umrl v Torontu.
Zadnjo soboto, 4. junija, ko so se rojaki pripravljali na procesijo Sv. Rešnjega Telesa na torontski Pristavi, se je smrtno ponesrečil z avtom 59-letni Anton Tratnik, doma iz Dolenjskega. Zapustil je lepo družino in žalujoče sorodnike, med katerimi je tudi njegova
sestra ga. Mara Osredkar, ki od časa do časa dar pošlje za MZA in naše misijonarje(-ke). Naj počiva v miru!
G. Rudi Kus je odletel v Zambijo, da izdela klopi in še kaj v cerkvi o Tomažina. Cerkveno Oznanilo torontske fare Čudodelne svetinje objavlja, da bo ostal tam kar celo leto. Želimo mu veliko božjega blagoslova v tem njegovem novem izkustvu laičnega misijonarja. Obrnil se je tudi na MZA za pomoč za kritje stroškov potovanja in prevoza orodja. Razložili smo mu, da vsak misijonar dobi letno od MZA znatno pomoč in da je taka vsota vedno mišljena za vse mogoče potrebe in načrte, ki jih posameznik kdaj ima. Razni misijonarji in misijonarke imajo vedno kak depozit pri rokah.

Members of the St. Vitus Alumni Association are looking for new numbers. Former St. Vitus pupils are invited to fill out the
application form on page 12 of this week’s special St. Vitus Summer Festival supplement.
St. Vitus Alumni Sought
In the Fall of 1987, our beloved pastor, the Rev. Joseph Božnar, invited former members of St. Vitus School to form an alumni club, me
purpose was to renew and maintain ties with our alma mater, the church and the parish. In this way, many of the people, who had attended St. Vitus School and drifted out of the community, even out of the state, would have the opportunity to return to the old stamping grounds on occasion.
The immediate response was enthusiastic. An executive board was elected by those who attended. A program was outlined for activities and

AMERIŠKA DOMOVINA. JULY S, 1988
s Economic and Political Crisis in Slovenia and Yugoslavia Grows
by Rudolph M. Susel
Among the many issues that currently draw the attention of Slovenes and Yugoslavs concern about the economic crisis is the most prominent. Also of intense interest, both inside and outside Yugoslavia, is the political crisis, with the arrests last month of three Slovenes, accused by the army of having in their possession a secret military document. From the last reports available, which are about ten days old, the three are still in a military prison, despite the efforts by official and unofficial groups in Slovenia, other parts of Yugoslavia, and the West, to gain their release. Even human rights organizations active in the Soviet Union and the East European Communist countries have joined these efforts. The army and the central Yugoslav political leadership, however, remain unmoved.
Figures published by the Tanyug News Agency and reported in the Wall Street Journal last Tuesday reveal that the inflation rate in Yugoslavia for last month was 21%, and that it is at an annual rate of 176%. This is a record for postwar Yugoslavia. The dinar, the official currency, is at 2400 to the dollar, up about one-third in the last several months. (At the start of this decade, for example, the dinar exchange rate was less than 20 to the dollar.)
The reason for the major deterioration in the recent past is the introduction of an economic stabilization program by the federal government, led by Branko Mikulič. The government acted under the direct pressure of foreign creditors, who refused to loan Yugoslavia more money unless the Yugoslavs' undertook far-reaching economic reforms. The thrust of these reforms is to lead the country in the
direction of a market economy.
Among the steps taken were a 23.9% devaluation of the dinar, the abolition of price controls on a wide range of products of popular consumption (prices on these goods had been frozen or price increases severely restricted since last November), and limits on wage increases. This combination of measures immediately had a serious effect on the living standard of the average Slovene and Yugoslav. Prices, which had been frozen, now were free to seek a more rational level. The problem was — and is — that this rational level involved a substantial increase. At the same time, the income of workers and those on pensions was prevented from rising nearly enough to meet the price increases.
This situation has produced a number of strikes throughout the country. Workers, who are paid in Yugoslavia on a monthly basis, discovered that their wages had not gone up and in some cases had actually gone down, this in the face of price increases on goods they need. The two most serious strikes of which we have reports occurred in Belgrade and in Maribor, the second largest city in Slovenia.
In Belgrade, according to a report by Žarko Rajkovič, Belgrade correspondent for the central Slovene newspaper “Delo”, on June 17 about 5,000 workers from the Zmaj factory in that city took part in a protest march from the factory, which makes combines and other machinery for agriculture, through the streets of Belgrade to the steps of the federal parliament building. This was the largest unauthorized political demonstration in Belgrade since March 1941, when demonstators took to the streets to demonstrate against a government which
US to Financially Help Yugoslavia
Reuter — The United States will assemble a finance package to help Yugoslavia in troduce severe economic reforms, John Whitehead, Deputy Secretary of State responsible for Eastern Europe, told a news conference last month.
He said the U.S. would give Yugoslavia $58 million dollars in addition to 500 million being negotiated through the Bank for International Set-
Gardenfest Aug. 6, 7
The Rockefeller Park Cultural Arts Association presents “Gardenfest ’88”, a cultural, performing and visual arts festival which will take place on Saturday and Sunday, August 6 and 7 from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m.
Gardenfest ’88 activities include a guided walking tour of the gardens with historians, a mini Olympics, a “Small World Program,’’ and ecumenical service.
tlements in Basle and would increase its commodity credits to Yugoslavia.
And he added that the U.S. would use its influence with the IMF, the “Paris Club” of creditor governments and commercial banks to help put a new $1.4 billion package together.
“The United States is ready to assist in this effort because there’s no question in our minds about Yugoslavia’s importance,” Whitehead said, He stressed American businessmen were increasingly interested in joint ventures in Yugoslavia and in expanding bilateral trade which stood at 1.5 billion dollars last year, and is planned to reach two billion in 1988.
His pledge of support came a day after World Bank vice-president Wilfried P. Thalwitz praised Yugoslavia’s reform efforts and promised solid financial backing for the measures that include selling shares and government bonds.
had signed a non-aggression pact with Nazi Germany, said Rajkovič.
The marchers were accompanied by police, who were careful, according to the report in Delo, to keep them clear of the neighborhood where university students reside. The fear clearly was that the workers and the students (i.e. intellectuals) would join forces and the demonstration could quickly get out of hand. The police, however, made no attempt to stop the marchers.
On reaching the parliament building, the workers demanded to see the top leaders of that body. “Come out,” they shouted. “We don’t want charity! Our children are hungry! Long live the working class! Who is lying to the workers?”
While this was going on, a delegation of workers was meeting with parliamentary leaders. Finally, they were addressed by Janez Zemljarič, deputy prime minister, a Slovene who was leader of the Slovene government until going to Belgrade. (Zemljarič was succeeded in Slovenia by Dušan Šinigoj, who has since visited the U.S. and Cleveland.) Zemljarič told the very angry workers that the recent government economic steps were not the problem, but earlier mistakes that the new reforms were designed to correct. In effect, he said, all Yugoslavs carry the blame for the present conditions. The president of the parliament, Dušan Popovski also spoke.
More to the point were the complaints expressed by the workers. The vice president of the workers union at the Zmaj factory, Vlado Kukobrat, said: “We came here because we are hungry. Hungry! Where is the money we have earned? Never have we worked so efficiently, but even this is not enough for this country. They (i.e. the leadership) swear by the working class, but behind our backs they pull all kinds of things. Here is my pay — $120.” (For the previous month, or about $30 a week, or about $6.00 a day!)
Even sharper in his remarks was Vuk Grbovič, an engineer
and a Communist nartv net; vist in the factory. “What kind of a country do we live in?” he asked. “I work for one hundred marks (1 U.S. dolar is about 1.75 marks, so Grbovič was speaking from the emotion of the moment, ed. note.) and I ask you, what is the kind of socialism we are building? I’m going to croak in poverty (original: Crknil bom v revščini), this I know, and even my children are not going to see the communism for which we have made so many sacrifices. For whom then am I building socialism? It must be clear to you functionaries (i.e. officials) that this is not a protest of the workers from the Zmaj factory, but rather of the Belgrade and entire Yugoslav working class.”
The demonstration concluded peacefully after Zemljarič and Popovski promised the Zmaj workers that they would acquaint the Yugoslav leadership with the workers’ complaints and that a delegation of Yugoslav leaders would come to the factory to discuss issues fully. Rajkovič concluded his report, which was accompanied by a photo, with the wry comment that in addition to the promises, the workers were given water to refresh themselves, it having been a hot and humid day.
Strike in Maribor
In Slovenia, two events took much attention. On June 21, a crowd estimated at 15,000 to 20,000 strong gathered at Ljubljana’s central square to protest the arrest of the three Slovenes by the Yugoslav military. The demonstration was peaceful, as was a similar gathering in Maribor.
Also on June 21, in Maribor, some 5,000 workers at the TAM vehicle assembly plant went on a strike which lasted three days. The workers were reacting — as had those in Belgrade — to the impact of the recent government economic program. The Maribor workers demanded a 50 per cent wage increase. We do not have available more recent reports about the outcome of this strike, which was unusual because of its size and duration.

In December of 1911 the issue of joining the KSKJ was first brought up. Discussions were carried on until the meeting of January 19, 1913 when the decision was made to formally apply for admission into the Grand Carniolian Slovenian Catholic Union which eventually became the American Slovenian Catholic Union. The society was admitted into the national organization on February 28, 1913 and became the 150th lodge in the Union.
Charter members were Theresa Lekan, Ivana Cvelbar, Mary Železnikar, Mary Peskar, Alojzija Škufca, Mary Miklavčič, Mary Globokar, Theresa Novak, Anna Zaletel, Anna Fortuna, Theresa Godec, Mary Novak, Frances Globokar and Josephine Perko.
The welfare and business of St. Anne’s Lodge No. 150 is now guided by the following officers: Rev. Anthony Rebol, spiritual director, Angela Winter, president, Helen Krofi, vice-president and auditor, Josephine Winter, financial secretary, Laura Berdyck, treasurer, Kathy Zabak, recording secretary, Theresa Zupančič and Anna Winter auditors. Our past recording secretary Agnes Zagar, who served from 1938 to January 16, 1983, still attends our meetings occasionally.
