Sovjeti zahtevajo kolektivno akcijo zoper Fran-cove bojne ladje, ki so potopile ruski parnik. Anglija preiskuje zadevo. Fašistična tovarna z* strojnice razstreljena

Prosperiteta dosegla korporacije
Nevtralnostni za-kon je ustaven
>rtig¡ "newdealski" zakoni pred vrhovnim sodiščem
London, 22. dec. — Nevarnost da se španska civilna vojna razvije v mednarodni konflikt, je dane» znova oživela, ko je Sovjetska unija energično nastopila proti španekim fašistom, ki »o 14. decembra potopili rusko motorno ladjo Komaomol. Sovjetska vlada ae je obrnila na Anglijo, naj ji preakrbi vse podatke o tej zadevi in angleška vlada se je odzvala.
Ako podatki ugotovijo, da »o bojne ladje — nemške, italijanske ali španske — v službi španskih fašistov namenoma potopile ruako tovorno ladjo, tedaj bo Rusija zahtevala od nevtralnostnega odbora v Londonu, naj razglaai, da so vse fašistične ladje v Španskih vodah piratske (roparske), ki imajo biti potopljene čim so o-pažene; če bi ae odbor obtotav-Ijal, tedaj Rusija morda aama razglasi piratstvo fašističnih ladij in v bodoče pošlje vsak svoj parnik na Sredozemsko morje v spremstvu bojnih ladij.
Ruska ladja Komsomol, 4600 ton, je odplula iz Odese 5. decembra s tovorom manganeza v Belgijo. Dne 16. decembra je imela doapeti v Gibraltar, toda dospela ni nikdar. Neka angleška ladja je 14. decembra ¿poročila v London, da je videla neznan parnik V plamenu kakih 300 milj vzhodno od Gi-| braltarja in grupo španskih fašističnih bojnih ladij v bližini. Kaj se je zgodilo z ruskimi mornarji na tej ladji, ni znano.
Madrid, 22. dec. —- Španske ljudske čete so včeraj odbile nadaljnja dva fašstična napada severnozapadno od Madrida in utrdile svoje postojanke na fronti med Madridom in gorovjem Guardarramo na severu. Po deželi je bilo več zračnih napadov z obeh strani in vladni letalci so uničili drugi vlak, naložen h premogom, v okolici Leona. Iz Ovieda je prišlo poroči-1 lo, da «o vladni topničarji razstrelili v La Vegi tovarno, v kateri ho fašisti izdela vali pu-in strojnice od začetka civilne vojne. V madridski okolici ho fašisti izgubili šest italijanskih tankov.
Angličanzka cerkev

London, 22. dec. — Nekateri listi na Angleškem odprto obsojajo nadškofa iz Canterburyja, pri mana angličanske državne cerkve, zaradi njegovega kritiziranja bivšega kralja Edvarda <inc 13. decembra po radiu. Za-<i<\a je resna, ker kaže, kako t « «no ho že spojene cerkev, politika in monarhija v Angliji. O-Klanilo ne je že več zahtev, naj cerkev loči od države.

New York. — Wall street, finančni distrikt najbogatejšega mesta na svetu, se po dolgih letih spet valja v prosperiteti. Velike finančne in industrijske korporacije so naznanile, da bodo razdelile milijardo dolarjev med svoje delničarje v obliki rednih #n izrednih dividend v zadnjem tednu tega leta.
Poročila iz jeklarskih središč se glasijo, da so jeklarske kom-panije preobložene z naročili in da jih ne bodo mogle izgotoviti ob določenem času, čeprav so v zadnjih tednih povečale produkcijo 26 odstotkov. Železnice tudi izkazujejo porast prometa. V novembru so imele $800,848,610 dohodkov, nad 80 milijonov več kakor v istem mesecu preteklega leta. Ameriške banke in finančne institucije bodo imele najbolj prosperno leto od 1. 1929.

Odpor proli Wagner je-. vemu zakonu odnehal
Washington, D. C. — Skoro polovica spornih slučajev, ki so prišli pred federalno delavsko razsodišče v zadnjih tednih, je bila poravnana na miren način, s sklenitvijo dogovora med delodajalci in unijami, ki so se pritožile pri razsodišču zaradi kra-tenja pravice kolektivnega pogajanja, katero garantira Wag-nerjev delavski zakon. To kaže pregled aktivnosti federalnegs razsodišča.
Razsodišče je rešilo 167 spor nih slučajev med delavci in delodajalci. V večina slučajih so delodajalci priznali unije kot predstavnice delavcev pri kolektivnih pogUjamjlh in to kljub pritlaku s strani Zveze ameriških tovarnarjev in drugih an-tiunijskih organizacij. Delodajalci so uvideli, da je najbolje, če se sprijaznijo z določbam Wagnerjevega zakona, kater prepoveduje aktivnosti, ki ovirajo pristno kolektivno pogaja nje. - n . ^
Federalno "razsodišče Je pre prečilo tri velike stavke in poravnalo 62 izmed «9 stavk. Rekord dalje kaže, da so morali delodajalci sprejeti nazaj 2472 delavcev, katere so odalovlli zaradi unijakih aktivnosti.

Washington, D. C„ 22. dec. — Federalno vrhovno sodišče je včeraj proglasilo nevtralnostno zakonodajo, ki daje neomejeno oblašt predsedniku Združenih držav z ozirom na zunanjo po-itiko, za ustavno. Ta zakonodaja je bila sprejeta v kongresu pred dvema letoma, ko sta >ili ameriški državi Paragvaj n Bolivija zapleteni v vojni zaradi pokrajine Chaco. Preklicana je bila v novembru preteklega leta, toda načela te zakonodaje je sedaj vzdržalo vrhovno sodišče.
Rooseveltova administracija, d je izvojevala zmago na vrhovnem sodišču, bo nedvomno zahtevala od kongresa nadaljnjo oblast v zvezi v nevtralnoat-no zakonodajo. Višja kongrea-na zbornica je v zadnjem zasedanju odklonila izredno oblast predsedniku glede oklica emerge.
Zadevo uatavnosti nevtralnostnega zakona je potisnila v ospredje obtožnica, v kateri je bilo rečeno, da ao Curtiaa-Wright Export Corp., Curtiss Aeroplane & Motor Co. in Barr Shipping Corp.' skovale zaroto n akušale prodajati strojnice Boliviji. Te ao se potem pritožile pri nižjem sodišču, ki je od-očilo, da je nevtralnostni zakon konfliktu s federalno ustavo, ker daje izredno oblast predsedniku Združenih držav. ^
Ta "newdeslski" zakon je bil prvi, ki ga je vrhovno sodišče vzdržalo v sedanjem zasedanju, drugi pa bodo sedaj < prišli na vrsto. Med temi sta Wagnerjev delavski zakon, ki daje delavcem pravico kolektivnega pogajanja z delodajalci in zakon brezposelnostnega zavarovanja. Ustavnost alednjega js že podprlo federalno distriktno aodl-£« v Bostonu, toda George B. Davis, delničar Boston k Maine železnice, se je potem obrnil na vrhovno sodišče z apelom, naj odloči, ali je zakon ustaven ali ne. Odločitev o ustavnosti tega zakona bo padla, ko ae bodo čla-federalnega vrhovnega eodl-iča, ki so zdaj na počitnicah, ponovno sestali 4. januarja.
NEMŠKI NACIJI OSVAJAJO JUGOVZHODNO EVROPO
Kontrola vojaikih potrebščin in orožja
TUDI \TjUGOSLA-VIJI
Pariz. — (t?) — Imperiali-atični pohod nacijake Nemčije je zavzel velik obseg v južno-vzhodni Evropi. Poleg Španije je ta pohod glavni faktor v ae-i danji evropski krizi. V vsaki državi zasleduje Nemčija dva cilja — kontrolo orožne industrije in virov surovega materiala.
Avstrija je| odpravila tanke, ker so oklopni avtomobili bolj učinkovito orožje v goratih pokrajinah. Avstrijo sdaj zalaga s temi avtomobili in pritlklina-mi Nemčija, v zameno pa je dobila delno kontrolo nad avstrijskimi premogovniki in orožnim trustom.
Na Ogrskem lastuje nemški kemikalni trum, največji izdelovalec strupenih plinov na svetu, tisoče akrov zemlje, na kateri prideluje kitajski fižol, ki ga potrebuje pri izdelovanju strupenih plinov. Nova voj ška cesta, ki jo je zgradila Nemčija, je zvezala obe drŽavi.
Kruppov koncem dominira orožno trgovino v Jugoslaviji, Nemčija gradi v blišini Belgra-da tunel, varea pred sovražnim napadom iz zraka in zalaga vojaško avtno tovarno z opremo, obratno pa Ji*<»lavlja pošilja

£2bra 1986, Eveleth, Minn.
Predsednik br. Marta odpre J, ob pol enajstih dopokine in Sive odbornike k delu. Br. taj-fftfta imena odbornikov. Na-so Ambrozich, Tomsich, pTko sestra Ozanich, Petrich, Lesar, Kasun in Klun. «Motih 9 odbornikov. Pričako-Zimo Kunstlja in| Terana¡iz glvja, ker je Ambrozich poročal, d» mu je telefoniral br. Teran,

ki dovrši 70 let svoje starosti in je le nepretrgoma v jednoti 20 let, lahko zmore, da jednota sanj plačuje asesment. Br. Per-ko: Jednota lahko plačuje za takega člana aaesment in denar naj se vzame la Njegove smrt-nine. Br. Lesar: Sem proti vsakemu zvišanju asesmenta v tem slučaju, sem pa za1 to, da se zviša asesment za par centov, ne pa da bi se članu jemalo od njegove smrtnine. *
Ambrozich pravi, da je dobil vabilo, da gremo h kosilu. Predsednik sejo prekine ob 12. uri. Po kosilu ob eni uri se seja na-
-----«,,	___daljuje. Potem govorijo še o-
Tajnik Klun ¿^^J* gtftH odborniki o tem. Klun pra-ve seje, ki se sprejme z malimi ***** „opravki. Predsednik Martz vpraša, kje hočemo sedaj začeti. Tajnik priporoča, da je najbolj umestno, če gremo po zapisniku zadnje seje, ker to je bilo tudi mišljenje odbora zadnje seje. Br. Tomsich pravi, da je to najbolj pripravno. Zadovoljijo se vsi. Tajnik čita točko za točko. Prva je na dnevnem redu mladinski oddelek, ki se glasi, da se napravita za mladinski oddelek dve lestvici za vplačitev asesmenta.
Prva ostane kakor sedaj, druga je pa, da se zvifia asesment za 10 centov na člana, in to pro-itovoljno, kdor hoče imeti več kredita kadar izpolne 16. ali 18. leto, to je kakor gl. odbor odloči. Zvišani asesment naj jednota nalaga na obresti, če mogoče na 4 ali 5 obresti, in kadar član do-polne svojo starost za pristop V odrasli oddelek, se mu ves povišani asesment z obrestmi vred izplača kot njegov kredit. Regularni kredit, kakor je sedaj v veljavi, se pa plačuje asesment zanj, kadar prestopi v oddelek odraslih. Br. Tomsich pravi, če naša jednota upostavi tako lestvico, bi s tem pridobili mnogo novih članov v mladinski oddelek, ker to bi bila velika reklama za jednoto.
Br. Ambrozich pravi, Ud se skrajfca debata in da se kolikor mogoče pravilno sestavi. Br.
Ko lestvico kot jo imajo Insuran-ci; kdor bo hotel več dobiti, bo več plačal. Br. Petrich: To še
♦ h
vi: Nemogoče je, da M se dalo nekaj zastonj. Ce bi naša jednota sprejela kaj takega, bi bila v nevarnosti njena solvent-nost, ali pa zvišati asesment, druge poti ni. Ambrozich pravi: Predlagam, da jednota zni-ža lestvico s 70 na 60 let, ali če je mogoče, da se napravi še ena lestvica za 60 let starosti. Klun podpira predlog. Br. Tomsich se strinja s tem predlogom in misli, da vae pokriva. Klun: Glasujmo o predlogu br. Am-brozicha, potem bomo šli naprej. Br. Petrich: To ne bo nič pokrilo. Vztrajam pri svoji zahtevi in se držim svojega načrta. Navzoči zahtevajo, da predsednik da predlog na glasovanje. Perko: Meni se vidi, da je pravilno, da to sprejmemo. Klun: Predlog br. Ambrozicha je na mestu in kot takega sprejmimo, gl. odbor bo pa iz naših priporočil napravil boljše, dobili bomo vsaj 65 let, če ne bo 60 let. Predsednik da na glasovanje. Sprejeto.
Preide se na točko bolniška podpora. Tajnik prečita točko iz zapisnika prejšnje seje, ki se glasi, da se odobri lestvica iz leta 1929. Spremeni se, da bolnikom, ki se zdravijo v bolnišnici, se da bolniška podpora s prvim dnem, drugim, ki so doma, pa s 4. dnem. Spremenijo se tudi nekoliko omenjene podpore. Petrich: Nikafror se ne strinjam, da he bi bile omejene podpore. Omejene podpore morajo ostati. Perko: Morajo biti, ampak
ne pokriva vsega. Kadar član ne tako drastično kakor sedaj, doseže zadostno starost, mora; Lesar: Sprejmimo v smislu zad-dobiti izplačilo z obrestimi vred,' nje seje, pa bomo gotovo nekaj
in član, ko dobi svoj denar, ga lahko porabi kakor on hoče. Br. Lesar pravi, da je bistveno vse eno. Priporoča Klunu, da on omeni na kratko smisel tega predloga in stvar bo končana. Br. Martz pravi: Tomich in Petrich imata oba eno misel in je dobro, da skupaj zložita. Klun pravi: Smisel tega predloga je bil že na zadnji seji na razpravi, da se ustanovi poleg te lestvice, ki je sedaj v veljavi, še ena lestvica za zvišanje ases-menta za vse Člane mladinskega oddelka enako, in to prostovoljna. kdor zmore plačevati v ta jednoti n varčni zavod, kar član dobi potem, ko doseže svojo starost Smrtnina takih članov o-«tane neizpremenjena. Regularni jednotin kredit, če ga je ne pa izplačuje za njegov
koristnega napravili. Govorijo še Ambrovich, Kasun, Tomsich, sestra Ozanich, in vsi so enakega mnenja.
Klun pravi: Mi se lahko nekaj naučimo iz naših napak v prošlosti. Je resnica, da so bolniški skladi sedaj še precej v dobrem stanju, kakor čitamo v našem glasilu, ni pa vse tako gladko za članstvo, katero je tako nesrečno, da mora vprašati za bolniško podporo pri društvu. Za člane, kateri zbolijo za kratke bolezni, je še kako, ampak Člani, ki so bolni dolgo dobo, je pa U bolniška lestvica veliko prenizka. Velikokrat bi radi glavni uradniki kaj pomagali, p« jim ni mogoče, kar pravila ne dovoljujejo, in popuščanje asesmenta ni nobena korist članstvu, ker človek na drugi stra-
aspsment, kadar član prestopi v ni vidi pomankanje pri bolnem
oddelek odraslih. Klun prosi Ambrozicha, da stavi predlog v t*m smislu, pa bo to takoj kon-(*n<>. Ambrozich predlaga v 'em smislu in predsednik da na glasovanje. Sprejeto.
^r. Perko pravi: Nekaj smo opustili, kar se tiče mladinskega oddelka, namreč otroci bi se morali sprejemati po 30 dneh v J« d noto. Br. Tomsich pravi, da ^ morali • prvim dnem. Br. Petrich: Bolj umestno je, da se J'h «prejema s 30 dni, ker po-t*ni ni tolike rizike. Predlaga, d* ^e sprejemajo otroci v jedno-to J«) 30 dneh. Sprejeto.
Druga točka je amrtninsko "•Mirovanje. Priporočilo br. Petricha je. da se zniža lestvi-<.'« na 50 ali «O let, ker 70 let
članu. Ambrozich: Mi moramo nekaj tukaj skleniti. 8 tem še ni rečeno, da bo sprejeto, kar bomo mi tukaj sklenili. Tomsich: Seveda ne, ampak se bo treba boriti tudi na prihodnji
konvenciji.
Br. Martz da na glasovanje. Glasovalo se je, da se bolniška lestvica iz leta 1929 osvoji v smislu današnje debat«. Sprejeto z 8 glasovi, eden proti.
Na vrsti je točka operacije. Le»ar: Tukaj moramo nekaj u-kreniti. Prečita pismo, katerega je prejel iz gl. urada, v katerem se glasi, da po pravilih ee ne more drugače pomagati, o-brne se pa lahko na izredno podporo. Denar se bo izplačal nekje. zakaj se ne bi Um, od kjer
P108T1TI
Tako nas izkušnje učijo. Perko poslal v priobčitev Prosveti, da i*redlaga, da se zvišajo operacl-' ne bo neprilik. Določiti mora-je za 25 odstotkov, izvzemši v mo dan. Marti: Prej se ne mo-točki prvi pod črkama J in K. (remo sestati kakor drugi teden, Kasun pravi: To »ni prevelika ker tajnik ima veliko dela pre-vsota. Mislim, da noben član dem zapisnik uredi. Tomsich i ne gre rad pod nož, samo da bo Mi se lahko sestanemo prihod-podporo dobil. Petrich: Pri nji teden. Ambrozich predlaga,
tem morajo biti omejene podpore. Ambrozich: Podpora bo o-mej ena tudi pri operacijah, ampak bolj sorazmerno kakor sedaj. Govorijo še o tem Martz, Tomsich in sestra Ozanich. Predsednik da predlog na glasovanje. Sprejeto.
Točka smrtninsko zavarovanje B in C 20 letno zavarovanje. V zapisniku zadnje seje se glasi, da se znižajd obresti članom, kateri si izposodijo denar. Petrich: Obresti naj se znižajo 4 odstotke. V debato posežejo vsi odborniki. Končno Ambrozich predlaga, da a* znižajo obresti vsem takim Članom s 6 na 4 odstotke. Ses. Ozanich podpira. Predsednik da na glasovanje. Sprejeto.
Točka pasivni člani. Tomsich pravi, da pasiviii člani bi morali dobiti $250 za pogrebne stroške v slučaju smrti. Sedaj na lestvica ni zanič. Perko predloži tudi svojo lestvico, ki se sajenja s $50 in konča s $400. Vsem se vidi ta lestvica previsoka. ' Tomsich': « Predlaga, da jednota plača v .se m enako $250 pogrebnih strošaov.» Član od enega do petega leta je pasiven ne več kakor 7 mesecev, od petega do desetega leta ne več kakor 14 msecev, in Člani od deset let naprej ne več ko 24 mesecev. Kasun podpira. Klun: Glejmo, da bomo sorazmerno napravili izplačila, tako da bomo pravilno vzdržali. Članom, ki so že pasivnj čez dve leti, je

Am-brosich: Nekaj mora biti v pravilih, kar se te stvari tiče, če je pa kateri član slučajno obsojen, se pa lahko pritoži in zadeva se izravna. Perko: Je res, ampak velikokrat to član opusti.

s tem težko kaj pomagati. Mogoče se bo dalo kaj ukreniti potom kakšne resolucije na prihodnji konvenciji. Petrich ima lestvico, katera se nekoliko razlikuje od sedanje v pravilih, namreč v prvi (n drugi vrsti o-stane kakor je, V tretji in četrti vrsti se zviša sorazmerno po številu, v zadnji vrsti se nekoliko zniža. Martz: Nikakor ne bomo mogli da*i velikih vsot. Lesar: Sedajna lestvica je pravilna za vse; kdor nič ne plača ne more nič zahtevati, člani, ki so bili pa prej pasivni, tem se ne more nic pomagati. Potem govorijo še drugi in Ambrozich predlaga: Jednota plača pogrebne stroške, $50, 100, 150, 200 in 800. Sestra Ozanich podpira predlog. Lesar: Imam dodatek k predlogu, da pasivni član, ki je v jednoti do *0 let, je pasiven 8 mesecev, do 20 Ist 16 mesecev In naprej pa 24 mi-secev. Ambrozich sprejme to k svojemu predlogu. Predsednik da na glasovanje. Sprejeto.
Petrich predlaga, da kadar pasivni član postane zopet aktiven član, da plača 25 odstotkov svoje smrtnlnske lestvice. Sprejeto. Perko omenja glede policistov, da bi bili lahko aktivni člani. Klun pravi: Je težko kaj določiti glede tega. Mogoče bi bilo, če bi bile delavske vlade, bi se dalo kaj napraviti. Policisti so dobri fantje, ampak povelje morajo izpolnjevati. Govorijo še Ambrozich, Tomsich, Martz in Perko, ki pravi, naj bi «e glasilo, če si mora s tem kruh služiti. Kasun: Seveda, kruh si mora služIti, ampak izpolnjevati mora svoje dolžnosti, potem se razume kaj mora delati. Poslušalec br. Kobal prosi za besedo glede tega In se mu dovoli. Pravi,, da je bil dele-gat S. 8. P. Z. in da so sprejeli točko, da so lahko aktivni Člani mestni policisti, samo Industrijski čuvaji ne morejo biti člani. Martz: V našem mestu so policisti, ki delajo po 10 dni v me. *eeu. pa so vseeno aktivni člani. Klun pravi; Tisti člani so vseeno kakor na rellfu. Tukaj ne govori o tistih, ki Imajo stalno delo. Klun predlaga: Vse, kar se tiče policistov in drugih čuvajev, opuntimo. Oni so pre-skrbi je u I, imajo evo > »talna dela. Tomsich podpira. Sprejeto.

Razvoj praznika "miru"
Prazniki, pa naj so cerkveni, državni ali ljuc ski, so navadno simbol nekih neizpolnjenih in pretiranih želja. To velja tudi o božičnem prazniku, ki Je simbol "miru in dobre volje".
Božič Je eden najstarejših praznikov človeštva. Tisočletja pred krščanstvom so razni narodi v zmernem pasu sveta poznali dva glavna praznika v letu: v decembru, ko atoji solnce najnižje In o kresu, ko stoji solnce najvišje na nebu. To sta bili dve kretni točki v natumem življenju primitivnega človeka, ki sta mu naznanjali vsakoletno izpremembo v prirodl. Simboli so se menjali, toda natural vzrok je ostal.
Encyclopedia Britannica* nam pripoveduje, da so poganski Anglosaksi davno pred krščansko dobo prasnovali 26. decembra začetek ali rojstvo leta in ta svoj božič so imenovali "modra-neht" ali "materina noč". Ceremonije, ki so jih imeli tega dne, ao.se ohranile, pomešane s krščanskimi obredi, daleč v srednji vek. Rimljani so imeli svoje "saturnallje", pri katerih so se gostili in okrasili svoje hiše.
Poganski božič Je bil oficielno pokristjanjen leta 440 po Kr., ko so se cerkveni očaki v Bimu, Jeruzalemu, Afriki in na Grškem po tristolet-nem prepiru zedinill, da Je bil Krist rojen 2K. decembra in božli naj bo praznik Krlstovega rojstva. <* < z tristo 1st je bilo krščanstvo brez tega praznika! In še takrat ga niso kristjani hoteli v splošnem priznati. Stari spisi pravijo, da so morale cerkvene oblasti v več krajih s silo in krvjo uveljaviti ivoj sklep, ko so razne atran-ke vztrajale, da to nI pravi rojstni datum Kri-sta.
Krščanski božič, praznik "miru in dobre volje", Je star okrog 1600 let in njegov krščanski simbol že obledeva. Saj je že davno očitno, da sta resnični mir in dobra volja ljudi le želja— tesna in pristranska želja. Ameriški božič je tudi državni praznik in za milijone Američanov ne pomeni nič drugega kot dan izmenjavanja voščil In daril. Vea ameriški buaineaa ae meaeca decembra auče le okrog in v znamenju božiča v razpečevanju blaga. Merilo uapešnega ameriškega božiča ni v tem, kpliko ljudi napolni cerkve, marveč v tem, koliko milijonov dolarjev izkupijo trgovci za razprodana darila .. .
Profitni aiatem prej ali alej izgine in Človeštvu nekoč zaalje tudi mir, to se pravi, da izginejo vojne in človeška naailja a sveta, toda decembrski praznik ostane, kajti prvotni vzrok— zimska kretns točka solnca—ontane. Božič dobi nov simbol—kakšen, mi ne vemo. Simbol neke lepe neutešene želje, veliko lepši in pomembnejši simbol kot pa no atari aimboli rojstva leta, rojatva Boga, rojstva miru . . .
Grupno zavarovanje
V letaku, ki sta ga poslala uredništvu Pro-avete brata Anton Harilar in Anton Horvst, za-; atopnika federacije 8NIU zaoadne Penne v odboru podpornih organizacij, Ki skuša sodelovati s CIO pri unijski kampanji jeklarskih delavcev, Je tudi rečeno, da se bo ta odbor pečal s preiskavo manih "group Insurancev" pri Jeklarskih družbah in svoja dognanja o slabih posledicah teh "insurancev" za jeklarske delavce bo objavil v glanllih podpornih organizacij.
Ta korak omenjenega odbora je vsega odobravanj« vreden in če ta odbor osredotoči svoje aktivnosti na to vprašanje ter donele vsaj delni uspeh, bo tel priznanje vseh podpornih organizacij. Kajti to vprašanje ae živo tiče vseh naših |M*d|xirtiih jednot in zvez.
Prosxeta Je ie pisala o tej formi raketirstva, "grupnem zavarovanju", ki se «a poslužujejo jeklarski in tudi drugi industrijski magnatje pod zakonito zaščito, da dobro prlveftejo delavce za r.»ke in noge nase. Magnatom niti malo ne gre za to, da bi zavarovali delavce proti teles-ntm poškodbam prt delu r« industrijskim holez-nim, temveč Jim gre le za to. da privedejo delavce v svoje koniiMiiiljske "unije", da Jih odvr-nejo od pravih delavskih unij in stavk in končno. da Jih odvrnejo od bratskih Mpornih «,rga* nizacij.

Vprašanje o zavetišč
Loe Angelca, CaL,— Kaj Je z zavetiščem? To vprašanje, ki je v najkritičnejših časih preizkušenj in potreb naših ostarelih članov izginilo z dnevnega reda, je treba obnoviti. Moj namen sedaj ni raziskavatl vzroke, zakaj <e to vprašanje ni tiralo do kakega zaključka. To lahko pojasnijo Usti, ki so imeli več o-pravka s tem vprašanjem kot pa dopisnik.
Glavni namen tega dopisa Je pobuditi člane in članice SNPJ do zanimanja za to važno vprašanje. V ta namen sem dobil nekaj podatkov, ki jih navajam za primerjanje potreb in razmer, ki imajo odgovarjati našim. Na* ši zaključki morajo odgovarjati našim razmeram.
Nedvomno bodo zaključki glede tega vprašanja danea drugačni kot bi bili pred osmimi ali desetimi leti. Razmere so se od te-marsičem izpremenile. Takratna skrb za starost, kf je bila absolutno na ramah poedipca, se danee vsaj začetno odreja in razporeja na vse družabne faktorje. To se pravi: naloge družabne soodgovornosti padajo vse več in več na celoto. Tako je prav in tako bi moralo biti v polni meri že davno. Upamo, da v tem o-zlru ne bo reakcije od strani zveznega vrhovnega sodišča, in' da bodp imeli odslej vsi ostareli člani družbe — nič več uspešni na delavskem trgu — trajne in redne dotrodke.
To nas privede direktno pred vprašanje zavetišča

Petnajst milj od tega m<*ta leži "L. A. County farm", kamor pošilja mestna bolnišnica in drugi tako zveni "charity cheat" zavodi razne člane z dna sedan- ^ ^ treba torej misliti na dežele družbe na odmor, okrevanje j0f m Urmo. Na drugem mestu ali stalno.	\	" Velja misliti na velikoet proeto-
Kako služi ta zavod tistim, ki ] e.
najem za družabne priredbe. Zadolžitve zavodu znašajo fl<HM>00.
To dvoje zavodov, zlaeti prvi, nam služi lahko za podlago slike, ki jo želimo imeti z ozirom na vprašanje zavetišča. Na prvi mah nam je lahko razvidno, da zavetišče v mestu ni zaželjeno in
se ga poslužujejo, ni važno aa nas; važni pa so podatki o upravi in organiziranju tega zavoda.
Ti so:
Posestvo je na 640 akrib.
Povprečnih stanovnikov je 2800.
Poslopij je 60; ena večja, druga manjša.
Bolnišnica ima 200 postelj- '
Sobe so moderno opremljene, elektrika in vodovod.

Po mojem mnenju moramo misliti vsaj na 150-200 akrov zemlje, na kateri se lahko pridelujejo poljski pridelki, je pri-mirna za pašo in dobra za aadje-rejot Da spada eefh nekaj živinoreje, kokošjereje itd-, ee razume. Naši ljudje ao bili najpreje poljedelci in živinorejci, zato se bodo «a stare dni dobro počutili, Če ee napotijo na farmo in dom, "ki so ga poznali v mladih letih/seveda v drugih razmerah. dr«f jfe smemo pozabiti, da začetek zavetišča ne bi smel preae-
če, kokoši in nekaj ovac. r
Staje za avtomobile, traktorje in drugo poljsko orodje.
Farma lastuje 127 Hojstein molznih krav in 258 telet. Ki* ve dajejo 700 gal. mleka na dan. Tet sto gal. ga porabi zavod.
100 akrov je odrejenih za vrt kjer se prideluje skazi vse leto zelenjava. Na teh akrih pridelajo za 20,000 dol. vrednosti zelen-njave na leto.

nil nič za starost. In v kolikor so bili prihranki posameznika odvrni od zdravja, možnosti dobave dela in varčevanja, dokler je bil zaslužek, v toliko bi moralo zavetišče prevzeti rlziko, da pokrije stroške takih članov v zavetišču in jim tako zseigura polno starostno oskrbo.
Ta riziko od danes naprej odpade, kajti zavetišču ne bo treba računati v glavnem na zbiranje prostovoljnih prispevkov za pomoč bratov in sester, ki si niso mogli prihraniti nič za starost.
Svoje račune zavetišču bodo poravnali z rednimi dohodki Iz tozadevnih državnih skladov. Ali bo želja vaeh ostarelih bratov in sester poslužlti se zavetišča? Ne. Kakor do zdaj in pred desetimi leti, bo na stotine bratov in sester, katerim ne bo treba računati na to, kje bodo preživeli staroat. Ali na atotine In mnogo več bo takih, ki nimajo nikogar, da bi se sanje zanimal In jim postregel, ko obnemorejo, ogluše a-li oslepe. To so bratje in sestre, ki bodo potrebovali svoj dom, po-službe in laatnega ognjišča.
Teh je že danea med nami na stotine, In ker nimamo svojega doma za ostarele, so primorani preživljati starost čestokrat v zelo žaloatnih, če ne direktno tragičnih razmerah. Zelo intere-santno bi bilo slišati mnenja o zavetišču od teh bratov in sester, da ae vidi, kako nujno je v reanlci vprašanje zavetišča.
Kje naj bi bilo zavetišče?
Mnenja o prostoru zavetišča ao lahko različna, vendar bo treba polagati važnost na gotove prednosti, bodisi glede zdravja, t j. podnebja, transporta ln prltiklln, ki pomenijo končno dohodke.
Država Illinoia je priporočljiva zaradi svoje osredotočene želez-Iniške zveze med vztokom, sred-njezapadom in zapadom in pa tu-
leto.
Kokoši (6000) izležejo 222 jajc dnevno. Preostala jajca in dresirana perutnina prinaša o-okrog $6000 dohodkov na leto. „
Povprečen obed, zajutrek ali večerja atane zavod 7.66c. Ward zoba, kjer je eden bolnik, stane farmo 48c na dan.
Poleg sedmih «travnikov je en dentist in trije specialisti
druge bolezni.
V	poslopjih je 6660 stolov, 2*? kopalnih banj, 8,060 oken. 1 J
Vsi podi v poslopjih pokrivajo 26 akrov. Za vzdrževanje in čiščenje tega prostora farma potrebuje mizarjev, plumberjev, pleskarjev, oskrbnikov ln enegft kurjača — inženirja.
Ima stroj 1000 k. s. za pridobivanje električne sile.
V	pralnici operejo vsak teden 78,600 komadov perila.
Redni letni izdatki za promet ln vzdrževanje zavoda leta 1034 so bili $028,049.86 ali povprečno 47 in pol centa dnevno na osebo.
Pogoji za vstop in včlanjenje na farmi so različni. Tisti, ki nimajo nič in nikogar, so bolehnl in ostareli, bodisi samci ali pari, pridejo tja skozi tako zvano "so« cial service" ali "charity chest", ali pa direktno skozi okraj.
Tisti, ki Imajo kaj, so onemogli in nimajo nikogar, de bi jim atregel, prepišejo enoetavno vso imovino v kakršnikoli obliki je na zavod in s tem postanejo člani zavoda do smrti. V slučaju smrti zavod obvesti vse eorodni-ke, o katerih Ima naalov, če žele vzeti ostanke. Ce se nihče ne o-glasi, ga pokopljejo po svoje.
Tako je na tukajšnji okrajni farmi. Ogledal sem si od bližje en privaten židovski zavod za stare, katerega dohodki izvirajo izključno od židovskih trgovcev in
število bi moralo biti prijavljeno Upravi 8NPJ ali odboru vaaj pol leta predno se načrt za zavetišče realizira.
Ce ae na pr. prijavi 100 čla- ateljeju na prostem, t tem
nov, ho treba računati na opaznejših 100 in v tem smislu Izd*-
ko nadaljnje dograjevanje stane toHko več kot pa če et gradi
,. V. «^ init
ooenem.
Vzemimo, da gradimo zavetišče na podlagi 100 prijavljenih; članov.. V tem slučaju naredimo proračun za 200 članov. Kako bi računali? Vzemimo na grobo:
Zemljišče 200 akrov $16,000 200 sob z moderno opremo $160,-000, orodje in material $20,000, Uslužbenci (16), 6 mes. $7.200 razno $20,000. Skupna investicija bi snašala $216,200.
Z dohodki za aedaj ne moremo računati mnogo, vemo pa, da bi bilo od 100 članov, Če bi plačevali po $6 na teden za hrano in stanovanje, $26,000 dohodkov-To so dohodki poleg tistih, ki bi prišli s polja in drugih pritiklin.
Poleg tega ne smemo pozabiti na «no možnost, ki utegne postati Zla nas posebne važnosti. #aši ljudje so poleg majnarjev

A ne samo to industrijo bi lahko razvili. V naših* ljudeh je prečej' poklicnih talentov, le prilike iri sredstev je treba.
Detajli, ki se tičejo raznih kvalifikacij bodisi aplikantov-članov(ic) SNPJ za včlanjenje v zavetišče in druge podrobnosti, morajo biti prepuščeni diskuziji, če ee razvije.

Program je otvoril D. J. Lot-rich, predsednik federacije, ki je iznanjal glavne točke in v drugem delu govoril o* pomenu federacije z ozirom na splošne razmer». V prvi točki je nastopil naraščaj Rdečih sokoličev ter u-brano odpel žalno pesem, posvečeno španskim otrokom, Ki so bi-i ubiti v civilni vojni. Kot uvod k temu je Anton Podbevšek po-ial kratko recitacijo, nakar je lastopila Marya Omahen in zelo ooerečeno interpretirala Ane Krasne pesem "Po zračnih valovih".

Sestope je napovedoval Boyan Mesh, triletni Jackie Kopach, najmlajši član Rdečih sokoličev, ie občinstvo prijazno pozdravil s poklonom, Helen Pavlin in Conrad Ladstatter pa sta v dialogu recitirala "My Pa Saya". Ro-'wt Ska v ich ae je korenjaški postavil s Katke Zupančičeve "Oč-'cotn Miklavžem" in v duetu na a-cordino sta nastopili Elsie Krek n Josephine Pluth. Angeline °luth je plesala tap dance in Tennie Šimenc je recitirala Čebu-arjevo "Tfga pa ne". Elsie Krek (e igrala na akordino "Beautiful Days" in njen bratec Bobby Krek 'e občinstvo veselo presenečil z 10V0 pesmico "The Worried "Swain", ki jo je pel 'po napevu sezonske "Jingle Bells." Dekli-ki zbor (Helen Dreeher, Elsie trek, Sophie Smagaj, Josephine °hith, Frances Saitz, Alvira Skavich, Irene Bvetlik, Elaine Turpin), ki je zapel "Zimo" in 'Lahko no¿," je spremljala Ma-TT Ovenr PftfftodMt Lustspiel" 'ta podali Frances Saitz in Mi-'zi Oven, Irene Svetilk pa je za-•>ela "Ciribiribin."

Spored je trajal jedva dve uri, že pred šeeto pa so bila oddana tudi vsa darila in otroci so bili deležni o-kusnega prigrizka, nakar je sledilo rajaaje in ples pri božičnem drevesu.
Ves program nedeljske božič-nlce sta vodili Frances Rak in Anne Beniger. Uspel je izredno dobro, nastop Sokoličev, ki so obenem člani SNPJ, je občinstvo navdušeno sprejelo. Nič ni bolj prijetnega, oevežilnejšega, kakor nastop dečkov in deklic na odru. Slične mladinske prireditve. primerne sezonam, se bi moréis prirejati večkrat, ker so našemu splošnemu gibanju neobhodno potrebne.

Ta je raznovrstna: običajna koledarska vse biha, mnogo podatkov, informacij, člankov oni-sov, črtic, povesti, pesmi in fotografskih no snetkov ter alegoričnih slik poleg oglasov.
Poezijo zastopajo Katka Zupančič iz Ameri ke, iz starega kraja pa Mile Klopčič z origina lom in prevodi, Tone Seliškar, Ivan Vuk Jelka Vuk in Tone Maček. Pesem Katke Zupančičeve "Kdaj V na čelu knjige je globoko zamišljena in delavcem resno namenjena budnica, prihaja joča iz srca.
Na čelu povestnega dela je naš star delavski literat Etbin Kristan s povestjo "Ženin se je vrnil". Nato se vrste ostali ameriško-alovenski literarni delavci: Milan Medvešek, najmlajši med nami, s socialno črtico "Hunky Bill garal Turocy" (Medvešek, Clevelandčan, se rapidno raavija v dobrega socialnega pisatelja), Louis Beniger a "Petrom Ponikvarjem", Anton Slabe s Črtico "Na fronti", Ivan Jontez s "Polnočno dogodivščino", Frank Česen s "Tremi brati", Fr. S. Tauchar z "Značilnim pogrebom", Katka Zupančičeva z "Eno aamo črko" in Ivan Molek % "Lumberjackom"; iz atarega kraja sta prispevala Angelo Cerkvenik črtico "Stari grehi" in Vladimir Rijavec "Sest bajonetov". In sploh to le niso vsi.
Med člankarji je na prvem mestu Zaiti z obširnim letnim pregledom in ostale Članke imajo E. Kristan, Fr. Česen in A. Garden. — Najboljši opis zgodovinskega pomena v tem Amer. dr. koledarju je prispeval Anton Šular z naslovom "Dežela solnčnih rož", v katerem opisuje naseljevanje in življenje naših rudarjev in farmarjev v Kansaau. V tem hvalevrednem spisu je obilica slik, ki ponazorujejo čtivo. Sploh so ti opisi naših naselbin in njih razvoja po Ameriki najhvaležnejše gradivo, ki ga prinaša Ameriški družinski koledar že nekaj let sem. Mnogo, premnogo važnih zgodovinakih podatkov o naših atarih naselbinah v Ameriki je ie izgubljenih, ker se ni nihče pobrigal, da bi jih ohranil in objavil—ampak vse še ni izgubljeno in letniki našega Ameriškega družinskega koledarja s svojimi spisi, kakršen je Sularjev, bodo nekoč dragocen priročnik zgodovinarju, ki bo sestavljal detajlirano zgodovino slovenskih naseljencev v Združenih državah.
Risbe so večinoma posnete, je pa nekaj nota-bilnih originalov. Mislim na produkcije Stanka 2eleta, čigar risbe so Že znane. V letošnjem koledarju jih je objavil več in med temi sta "Tiha laza" in "Poem" izredno lepi deli. Stanko Žele, nameščenec v gl. uradu SNPJ ie dolgo iet in držeč se v ozadju, zatišju, je že objavil mnogo svojih risb v raznih naših publikacijah v Ameriki — vzlic temu še ni dobil priznanja kot umetnik. Zakaj ne? Morda zato ne, ker ne razbija po velikem bobnu, "because he does not belong?" . .. Kdaj bo konec zapostavljsnju naših kulturnih delavcev? Kdaj izgine naš prekleti "inferiority complex"?
Upajmo, da bodo naši delavci pridno segli po tej knjigi, kakor so vsa prejšnja leta. Vredna je, da ai jo vaakdo kupi, dobro prečita in pregleda, in ne aamo enkrat, in akrbno shrani. Ima 224 atrarti in atane 75c. Dobi se pri Proletarcu, 2901 So. Lawndale ave.—I. M.

Timely Comments
Eight More Day*
The 1966 juvenile membership campaign of the Slovene National Benefit Society is coming to a close. Only eight more days from this writing are left within which to complete the drive. The last few weeks have been a considerable speeding up of enrollment, and the splendid response of some locals will bring the campaign to a final success.
A number of eastern locals, notably those in Pennsylvania, have done their full share of the campaign work by enlisting a good many new juveniles into their fold. Lodge 716 at Universal, according to available figures, leads all others in the securing of new junior members this year. There are other English speaking locals with remarkable campaign results, while there is a number of locals, working under identical conditions, which have not aspired to that position, assumming. rather, an indifferent, dormant attitude, The Utter need some sort of stimulant which would wake them up and spur them on to increase their membership, especially during ft campaign such as this with ft string of award« offered for their efforts.
The object of every similar campaign Is to increase the membership. If little or no gain has been made, your lodge has not been keeping up with the rest of the lodges which have been active in adding new blood to their numbers.
Another Jubilee Campaign?
Speaking of membership campaigns, their successee and limltationa, we luggsst that the Supreme Board st its annual session In February formulate plans for another big membership campaign—a Juvenile membership canv-paign, conducted on a larger scale offering the most favorably worksble conditions possible— to fittingly commemorftte the. 25th anniversary of the founding of the Juvenile Department of the 81ovene National Benefit Society.
Our junior order was established in 1912, at the Milwaukee convention, which fact puta It In the forefront of the Juvenile Movement in America. It haa been reliable stated on various occasions that ours waa the first fraternal organisation entering this new field by launching S juvenile department.
If this' worthy suggestion is accepted and officially endorsed, which to a very large extend depends upon your local lodges, we feel, confident that the proposed juvenile campaign fbr 1907 would surpass the gains of this year's campaign by Inconceivable margins. Such a campaign, receiving the united backing it de-' serves and offering special opportunities and privileges, would set a new reoord In the securing of new juvenile members, becsuse it would be given an impetus such se we have never witnessed before. Remember that the growth of our Juvenile Department is a source of utrength for the Slovene National Benefit Society, one of the major facts which we, Its members, cannot afford to neglect I
Our Convention Year
Already lodges and members are getting prepared for the eleventh quadrennial convention of the Slovene National Benefit Society which will be held in Cleveland in May, 1937. They are making the required preliminary preparations tor the election of their delegates by striving to msintain the prescribed number of members in their lodges and. where neceasary, by merging with sister lodges in their jurisdiction.
There sre at present sbout Sfi thousand adult members in the 0NPJ, and of this total the English speaking lodges number sbout 4 thou-; ssnd members. The eleventh convention, therefore. by s great margin will be represented |»re-dominantly by the older generation. This fact reveals nothing new. yet it preaenta a pictun which perhaps some of us are prone to overlook
One thing is certain: the old generation will march hand in hand with the new generation and work unitedly for our common good, for thla has always been our purpose, and always shall be!
SNPJ Tournament
January 1, 19*7, is scheduled to lie s signifi-cant date for our locals in the Pittsburgh see* tor. Thst date marks the Fourth Annus' Bowling Toumsment sponsored by the F.. 8. L. Federation. It will be held In Ambridge. and It is the duty of every true 8NPJer in Western Pennsylvania to rally to ita call.
Season's Greetings
We cordially extend to you one and all the season's greetings, with the sincere hope thst the new year will bring forth at least some of the things that you could wish for in health, happiness, social and economic Justice I

LA SALLE, ILL.—Let at sit back In our chairs tkis fine evening and review our past year. It has been a hard and trying oos for many etf as, and it spelled aoeeea fer seme; In the school of experience it is laid thst one eoceeeda by the mistakes be haa mads. This is very true although many times a mistake may cause mia-fortune and ruin. Is this great fraternal organization of ours I feel very presd indeed whan I hear one say thst be has Joined the SNPJ.
Tberf weren't very many insurances which would give you sick benefit a few years ago and even today one must psy s very high rste to obtsin it. No one realises what this means to them until the time comes whan they need it, The younger feneration of today always bad as ides that their parents or someoee else would take cere of them is case of sickness or any other such catastrophe. It probably never dawns on thsir mind thst their pareata fssl thst whan they reach s certain age thst thag should be sble to take care of themsflvss. To parents' love fbr their children should tesch them to seek for their children an organisation Ilka this one.
Many of the younger set do not realise what their folka went through when they organised this Soeiety, what bsttles hsd to be fought to win for themfelves an organisation which they can call their own, one where they do not have to psy any capitalists s fat, Juicy salary to head the organisation. Also sa organisation which allows you to think freely and, above gjl. the laboring classes' own organisation. How often does one hear of ^ome of these large Insurance coigpenles offering sid to certain segtjpns of the country where natural catastrophes occur? Even if one-fourtii of their policyholders resided these they would offer no assistance but thoss which they are obliged tu pay on their policies. How many of them back labor T How many of them care whether you work tomorrow or not? All they want is the "dousbt th*y can fatten their own wallets with the interests puid on the money yoti psy for youf insurance policy.	j
The Mohawks feel quite proud of the fact that one year ago today the membership consisted of only 76 adult members. TODAY WE HAVE NEARLY HIT THE HUNDRED MARX. I BELIEVE IT IS ONLY A MATTER OF THREE MORE MEMBERS. I HOPES* THAT BEFORE JAN. 1 ROLLS AROUND WE WILL BE ABLE TO HIT THE MARK.
When we celebrated our tenth an-nivereary it seemed that the members tamed a new leaf. There was a record crowd on hand to help us rJebrate, the meetings were attended with more enthusiasm and tfiey even
started to hunt upv; new members. Whenever you think you aren't treated right, tell sa about it, and well iron out your difficulty.
Noted in the last issue of the Pro-sveta an article written by Bro. F. J. Progar of the Ramblers on the meetings held on the outside. I realise that there sre very many people and members not only in our organisation but also in msny others with this very same bad hahit. H seems that the only remedy fer this is to
By IVAN MOLEK, Editor Holidays of all kinds, whether they art religious, state, or national, are mostly symbols of some unfulfilled desire. We celebrate some natural or historical event and to that event we attach some noble purpose. Christmas, a holiday of "peace and good will to men", is no exception.
Christmas is one of the oldest holidays of mankind. Thousands of years before Christianity, men living in the temperate zones of the world knew two outstanding festivals of the year; one in have the president call on thm. mem- "inter when the sun is at ^lowest point and anotherin summer bers St the meeting to voice their when the sun reaches its highest point in the sky. The two solstices were the pivotal points in the life of primitive man. To him they were a natural symbol; they heralded the change in season.4	, ,
j- Through thousands of years the symbol lost its original meaning, biit the festivals remained in their proper season. The winter celebration, as we see in the Encyclopaedia Britannica, meant the beginning of a new year for the ancestors of the English peo-
opinion on the subject when he beam sbout it being diseuses« "out of class." The members should be drilled into the fsct that an organisation esa only he hurt by the members, in it and not ao easily by the outside factions. In some uniSns S stiff fine is imposed en members talking or discussing union trouble« in shop. This

Is it a go?
Now I wish to send the season's greetings to all of the SNPJ English speaking lodges and friends which through our wanderings we have met. It is s slmpto greeting and a solemn one. May our friendship never cease.

The CIO Is making more rapid progress in the past few weeks in the Peoria Holt plant, organising its workers into the Steel union. This plant Is the largest factory of Ite kind In America, making caterpillar tractors with Dieeel engines and employs seme 12.000 workers. As a part of Its campaign, the organisers plan te supplant their daily mimeograph newspaper with a regular pub-He labor newspaper, and persons to edit the paper have already been bar gained with.
We are informed by our members in Pennsylvania connected with the CIO and union campaign of the steel workers that their Fraternal Orders' Committee will investigate the so-called group insurance with which the steel laborer are blessed by the grace of the big steel barons. This investigation, if undertaken, will be a worthwhile approach to ond of the biggest rackets in the insurance fiekl, and if the Committee succeeds only partly in thin undertaking it will earn its well-deserved praise. We have already dealt in the Prosveta with this monster, which and | ties the worker hand and foot to the wage-slave system and turns him away from the union movement, away from the struggle for better laboring conditions, and away from the fraternal societies. The industrial group insurance is the great despoiler of labor. It serves the Industrial magnates with a double purpose: it keeps the workers in submission, and it gives the insurance companies a chance to exploit them, the employer having his fat share in this exploitation.

The final two weeks will bring in a greater list of tournament entrants.
A key activity, combining sporta and a social, will usher the SNPJ lodges Into a new year of progress and action.
Tournament rules, prises and other details have been given space before. This column will mention a few of the Ambridge details. The bowling events will be held st Ambridge's Club alleys on Fourth st. and Ma-plewood ave. Competition events will start nt IS o'clock noon. (Due to the large turnout expected the early start la neceasary.) Bowling is the only Item on the afternoon's program. Major tntereet will be centered in the games For those others who may want to leave the alleys for visits or other errands of interest, the matter rests with the individuals. The Slovene Home's club rooms at 1M Merchant street (7 minute walk from the alleys) will be open all day.
The luncheon program this year wUl be somewhat different than past » ear«. Immediately after the ma)er bowing events, after ft p. m, dinners will be ready to eetve to all visitors

SNPJ Bowling
Tournament
Jan. 1.1937
PITTSBURGH, PA.—The English Speak-ing Federation of StfPJ Lodges of Western Pennsylvania plans to sponsor its FOURTH ANNUAL BOWLING TOURNAMENT on January 1, 1B87, at the CLUB ALLEYS FOURTH and MAPLEWOOD AVENUES AMBRIDGE, PENNSYLVANIA.
Members and friends reading the Prosveta the past few weeks are aware of the fact that this Bowling Tournament is the biggest sporting event ever staged by a Jugoslav Fraternal Organization. The Federation in making plans for this Tournament have realized the fact that it would be impossible for the Athletic Committee to work alone and have therefore elected a Bowling Tournament Committee namely: Betty Ambrozic, Mike Kumer, Louis* Kosela, Tommy Ganter and F. J. Kress. Members of this committee have been hard at work preparing forms, mailing them and giving publicty. The Secretary of the Committee, Mike Kumer, has published in last week's issue of the Prosveta a detailed account concerning this Bowling Tournament. I doubt that there is anything that I can add to it.
Therefore as Chairman of the Fourth Annual Bowling Tournament Committee, I strongly urge that each and every member affiliated with an SNPJ Lodge, be it Slovene or English Speaking, make it his or her business as well as duty to take and play a part in this Great SNPJ affair.
The Bowling Tournament is wide open to. all. We do hope that our Slovene members, whether you have ever Bowled or not will take advantage of this Open Invitation. Members from out-of-town living in the four corners of these United States are urged to attend.
Immediately following the Bowling Tournar ment, a very delicious hot luncheon will be served to those members who so request for a nominal fee. Wp have been assured that on-... ' ly the best of foods will be served. We feel satisfied that the members will tell us that this was the best place ta eat after all. Now then to top the Tournament off successfully. A Tournament Dance will be held in the evening at the Croatian hail. Dancing 8.30 p. m. until you decide to leave. Music to be furnished by a very popular dance band.
My appeal to you members of the SNPJ, connected with the Slovene and English speaking lodges, is to get behind this first great SNPJ event of the NEW YEAR, and help make it a success. Last but not least, LET'S PUT TT OVER.
On behalf of the Committee, I wish to extend to all SNPJ members, the season's greetings. We trust that as prosperity returns it will be more than generous to you and that your Christmas and New Year are one of happiness.
Bowling Tournament Committee.

The Morning Seaaion, after its opening, singing of America, a few welcome addresses and their responses, really got down to listening u reports. Thé Past President, the Hon. Fred A. Servira, in his lengthy report had much to say. Briefly a few fit his statements were: Fra-lernalism has a greater future; court» are friendly in deciaions concerning societies; Penna. has no atete tax on lodges; the future bears watching as state legislatures may want to gain additional revenue Jt>y taxing fraternala; the practice of fraternal field agents in misrtpré-lentliig other fraternala should be watched and corrected; as new state legiilative bodiea meet and may demand frsterns! taxation, some societies would not oppose s minor tax; Texas taxes fraternal*; reference was made that fritefrnals are "sleeping sisnts" capable of much activity when aroused; a new Fraternal Code ii being considered in IHInola snd that code will be studied by the Con-grefs; ' it is advisable to cooperate with' state insurance commissions; s few remarks wet's given about the open and closed contracts; these lstter provide s point of diferencs between Missouri's state Insurance commissioner O'Malley and fraternels; there ■re 332 course» in insursnce offered to ntuâcm in Amer^Hn -dnlvt-i-BTfleS; internals mu»t offset the influx that old line Insurance companies will re-celrc in their better selection of salesmen who have studied these courses; frstemals feed a national need and are necessary in our national life; » publication of an erroneous statement damaging to fraternels was ex-plained and prevented in due timo; the Penna. Insursnce Commission
was reported friendly and coopérât Ing with fraternels; complimenta were paid to the aid rendered by all officers; the closing words gskei that each fraternal build up its mem bership and increaae ita activitiea.

P. O. Powers, Pres. Indiana Fraternal Congress: The Hoosier state Congress organised in 1897, oldest in the U. S.; 48 fraternels operate in his state, of which 88 belong to the Congress; they are in polities to get things legislated in favor of fraternala; the Indiana legislature approved (irst a uniform law for the United States as concerns fraternels; as knowledge of fraternels is meager among the general public, a program of education should be had; advises fraternels to organise oolitically.

- It was 8NPJ Juvenile Day. Needless to say all had a good time and general satisfaction prevailed. The program was carried oat as follows: SNPJ March by the orcheatra; Memorial Song by the Red Falcons with piano accompaniment by Mitai Oven and recitation by Tony Podbevaekt "Po srainih valovlh," recitation by Marya Omahen. Then followed the Red Falcons on the air from radio station SNPJ with Boyan Aleeh announcing. First was little Jackie Kcpach with a greeting followed by a vocal duet "My Pa Saya," by Helen Pavlin and C. Ladatatter. "Oik* Miklavi" was recited by Robert Ska-vlck Blair Krek and Joeephin* Pluth reeled off a duet on the accordions. Angeline Pluth illuatrated a tap dance with Mltsi Oven accompanying and Jennie Slmenc recited "Tega pa ne." Elaie Krek soloed "Beautiful Days" on her accordion after which Bobblt Krek came thru with his specialty, an unaccompanied vocal solo.

8. H Hadley, Pres. National Fra-ternal Congress of America: 42 states have enacted that fraternals are charitable in character and are not taxable, except as to real estate and office property possessions; attempt* have been made to reach an understanding with the National Social Security board as to place fraternals hold in that act, particularly in the act's taxing features; the social security program csnnot tske the place of fratera*is; the more members being enrolled the greater will be fraternal progress.

After a little intermission , the writer spoke briefly on the meaning and purpose of our Christmas, Mary Ivancleh of South Chicago gave an acrobatic dance and the playle: "Brothers Santa Clauses" was rendered. Those in the play wore: Elale Krek, Elaine Turpi«. Ivan LadetaUer, Angeline Pluth. Eraeat Dresher. Sophie SmegaJ, Tony Podbcveek and Charieo Pegorelec. The program was rendered almost exclusively by th« Red Falcons, the only organised group of young people for this purport among us. They were tutored by Franees Rak and Anne Beniger. Louis Beeiger and John Rak assisted.

From the program we concluded that there are great possibilities among our young people. Our desire in training them is to help them to a better underatanding of the why'» and wherefore'a of life and to assist them to develope their mental, spirit-usl snd specific tslents. In this we are succeeding more and more. And why not?

Our Lodge Physician remains Dr. Hamtil. Our meeting will still be held every second Friday of the month, at the Jugoslav Sokol hall, 1480 Chouteau Ave. -
At our annual meftiag, two new members were initiated. They are Joseph Ranker and Ann Kerbovac. We welcome theih to our Lodge and hope they become as active as the rest of the members. We hesr there are some more members to Join at the next meeting. Well, that's put-ing soms new spirit into the Lodge. Let's see if we can't aH help in increasing our membership.
The Spirits are very sorry to hear that Mr. Peter Kokalj of Witt, III., and father of Bro. Peter and Frank and Sis. Minnie Kokalj, was hurt in a mine accident and was taken to a hospital. We hope he was not seriously injured and ¿hat he will soon recover from his Injuries.
We are very glad to hear that Sis. Boronich of Collinsville is again off the sick list.

To those who for any reason, no matter how urgent, have left their wives and children behind I cannot use words strong enough to express my deep feeling of shaasa end resentment. Many, many times we met children along our travels who asked u. whether or not we ¿new of their father or uncle or brother who bad gone to America and new never even writes to them. Though I have no bu.ine.s taking it «pen myself to censure thoae responsible I. as a Slovene, feel sad that this condition exists.

These are the lodges we affiliated with in 1988.
