Uradna turška časniška agen-tura poroča, da je bila sestava nove vlade poverjena Recepu Pekerju, častniku v armadi Ke-mala Ataturka, ki je strmoglavi-a sultanovo vlado v revoluciji 1922. Peker je vodja desničarskega krila ljudske (vladne) stranke.
Naznanilo pravi, da bodo člani sedanjega kabineta izvrševali funkcije, dokler ne bo formirana nova vlada.

Nekateri delegati so se izrekli za zvezo med protestanti ln Vatikanom in skupno borbo proti sovjetskemu vzorcu socialne revolucije. Trdili so, du bo borba ostrejša z "rdečo nevarnostjo", Če se bo odlašala.
Drugo vprašanje je bilo, ali naj se konferenca, ki se vrši v kolegiju Gorton, izreče za ustanovitev odnošajev z branžo pravoslavne cerkve, ki je naklonjena Moskvi, ali branžo, ki je proti Moskvi in katero reprezentira patrijarh v Atenah.

Manifestacije za priključitev Trsta k Jugoslaviji
Eaaen. Nemčija. 6. Wg.—Urad-niki britske vojaške vlade so vznemirjeni zaradi širjenja pro-tlbrltskegs sentlmenta med prebivalci Porurja, kakor tudi naraščanja moči komunistične stranke. Glavni vzrok vidijo v akutnem pomanjkanju Mvil.
Protibritski sentiment so izra Žale tudi demonstracije Nemcev v Hamburgu. Organizirano so bile v znak protesta proti odredbi, da morajo zapustiti svoje hiše britskim vojakom. Odred ba določa izpraznitev več tisoč hiš.
Nemci v Essenu, Wittenu, Bo-chenu, Wuppertalu in dr porursklh mestih izrsžajo nezadovoljstvo. "V teku vojna," pravijo, "so britski letalci metali letake s pozivi, naj strmogls-vimo Hitlerjev režim. Obljubo vali so nsm živilu in pomoč pri rekonstrukciji, tods britske a v toritete so pozabile na obljube. Živilske odmerke so nam znižale na 1030 kalorij na dan. Naše tovarne zapirajo vrata ln nemški vojni ujetniki so še v tabo riščih. Ljudem ne moremo zameriti, če se v obupni situaciji oklepajo komunizma."
Britski uradniki so priznsll, ds rudsrji v Porurju stopajo v komunistično stranko. Soclsli-stična stranka in strsnka krščanskih socislutov izgubljata člsne.

GLEDE ZDRAVNIŠKIH OBISKOV
Library. Pa,—Na redni seji društva 386 SNPJ, ki se je vršila 14. julija, je članstvo razpravljalo o gotovih točkah pravil in prišlo do zaključka, da bi se spremenilo sledeče:
Zdravniški obiski za bolnike vsled poškodb ali kakšne druge bolezni, radi katere so primora-ni, da se podajo v bolnišnico, po odpustitvi pa se morajo vračati nazaj na zdravniški pregled, in sicer navadno tri do štiri tedne ali več, naj bi zadostovali, kot jih določi zdravnik iz bolnišnice.
Sedanja pravila zahtevajo obisk zdravnika vsaki teden, vsled tega je bolnik primoran, da ima še drugega zdravnika, če hoče da dobi podporo, kar pomeni ponovne stroške, dasiravno ta zdravnik nima sploh nobene oblasti čez zdravnika, kateri je v bolnišnici. Domači zdravnik v splošnem ne priporoča nobene spremembe, ker ve, da je bolnik pod nadzorstvom zdravnika iz bolnišnice. Če bolnik da izpolniti nakaznice v bolnišnici, kjer jim je bolezen in stanje bolnika dobro znano, toda označen je samo en obisk zdravnika, recimo v štirih tednih, ti je podpora odklonjena, pa čeravno se komat giblješ. To vem iz izkušenj drugih in lastnih. Ne smemo pozabiti, če si potolčen. potem pa te izpuste iz bolnišnice, je tvoj najboljši zdravnik narava in čaF.
Zatorej priporočamo, da kdor duhom časa, zaeno pa on. se n a, v bolnjšnici in jc

PRIPOHOftftA FEDERACIJE CENTRALNEGA ILLINOTSA I Gillespie. Ill,—Federacija dru štev SNPJ centralnega Illinolsa je imela sejo dne 7. julija tei sprejela sledeča priporočila za izboljšanje pravil SNPJ:
Društvo, ki šteje 250 ali vec članov 1. januarja v konvem nem letu, ima pravico poslati enega delegata na konvencijo. Ostali del točke o delegaciji naj ostane tak kot Je sedaj.
Bolniška podpora naj se prične plačevati že s prvim dneir vsem onim članom, ki so šli v bolnišnico, to je od dnevs, ko sr se javili bolni pri društvenemu tajniku. To le potrebno, kajti oo navadi eo orve dni stroški v bolnišnici največji.
List Prosvets naj piše v »mi slu tskih tfremlc. ds se ne b mogla več ponoviti sllčns sfers kot je bila Molkova. On Je se ksl prehude rane hrsbrim Jugo slovsaskim In ruskim bojevni-kom. ki so se borili za pošten obstanek ns svoit Isstni zemlji SNPJ ftst preoehs t vsem« ne potrebnimi irdatki v pribodnllh medkonvenenih let»h. kskor tu di na konveneiil ssmi. posebrv naj se ne odloči večje vsote tse razne oroinie. k* niso in ne bo do v jednotino korist Tudi zs
bojijo, da bi se jih sčasoma izrinilo ven pri zadnjih vrat.h. Vsem tem starim članom, ki i-rrrajo nad 30 let članske dobe,
naj bi plačevali pokojnino do vsote $5 mesečno, da bi imeli denar vsaj za vzdrževanje smrt-nine.
Točki, ki določa, da jednota plača odškodnino za izgubljene ude, naj bi se dodalo, da plača odškodnino tudi za zdrobljeno kost v roki ali nogi, to sc pravi v primerih, ko roka ali noga ri več'rabna in jc včasih še celo. ^ napotje. Plačalo se naj bi toliko odškodnine kot za odreza-nje udoV. (Glej razsodbo glavnega porotnega odseka o zadevi društva št. 89 v Midwayju, Pa.( v mesecu juliju 1945.)
Na konvencijah se včasih veliko govori po nepotrebnem in zapravlja dragi čas. Na drugi strani pa se v nujnih in važnih zadevah rado predlaga zaključek debate, kar ni pravilno. Ker na konvenciji navadno govori le kakih 15 društvenih delegatov, zato priporočamo, da se v važnih in nujnih zadevah da priliko govoriti tudi onim delegatom na Zadnjih stoleh, ki "navadno ne dobijo prilike izjaviti morebitne dobre sugestije ali namene.
To so priporočila federacije društev SNPJ za centralni Illinois, ki so bila sprejeta nu seji dne 7. juMja 1946 v Auburhu, 111.
John Rugel. zapisnikar.
BESEDA DOLGOLETNEGA TAJNIKA
Chicago, 111.—Ker je to zadnja izdaja Prosvete kot uradnega glasila pred 13. redno konvencijo SNPJ, želim, da je tudi me ni dovoljeno, izraziti svpje misli. Sicer je včasih bolje, da te delegat oglasi, kador je točka na dnevnem redu, ker pa vsi želi-pio, da bi bila konvencija za ključena v enem tednu, jc tore bolje, da že prej perečitamo raz na priporočila in nasvete, vse dobro premislimo in ko je tozadevni predlog na dntvnem redu, glasujemo zanj ali proti, s Debatirati tti utemeljevati ter nazadnje protipredlagati nekaj, kar je skoraj isto, Ee mi vidi, da je potrata časa in zavlačevanje konvenčnega dela. Iz imenika priobčenih delegatov v Prosvcti razvidim, da je pretežna večina onih, ki so že v prošlosti imeli čast znstopati svoja društva ne konvencijah. Želeti je, da so se iz izkušenj že naučiii, da je vča-lih bolje, da tmo zmerni in ne skušamo ponavljati, kar je bilo že povedano, in to le iz razlogu *cš, raz moram tudi neka i r<či drugače bodo doma mislili, da te ne upam govoriti, ali po da nisem bil navuoč. Upam, da dandanes nnše članstvo nI toliko zainteresirano, ali bomo vsi go vorili ali ne. peč pa koliko bomo skuisli kot člsnski eastopni-ki storiti v korist splošnega članstva v teku enega tedna.
Seveda, če bi hoteli vsi pripo-vedovsti po svoje, zrsven pa še nonavljfti skoraj ene in Iste be ode. smn lehko ns konverclil ves mesec avgust. Iz preteklih -zkušenj se mi vidi, da se neka-
terim delegatom nikamor ne mudi. Pa tudi če bi bilo temu tako, že bratska dolžnost nas veže, da se i2ognemo kritiki, ki je po vsaki konvenciji izražena, ki pa ne upliva dobro na nove člane, torej prej škoduje kot koristi jednotinemu napredku.
Ce bi bilo po mojem miši je nju, bi zborovali na konvencijah po odsekih. Prepričan sem, aa bi dosegli isti, če ne boljši rezultat v vseh oziiih. Po mojem mnenju je SNPJ skozi proš-lost In v danih razmerah dovršila vsaj 90 odstotkov nameravanega smotra 'n cilja, če ne več. Časovne razmere prinesejo s seboj zmeraj kaj novega all to ne sme biti vzrok, da bi mislili. če5. če ne' bo vse tako kot pribUo ali z vijnkl pritrjeno v pravilih, da se bo zato podrl svet.	,
Na konvenciji bomo izvolili »»lavne odbornike in jim poverili vodstvo organizacije v bodoče. oolep tega pa jih bomo tudi pooblastili, da imajo polno moč zaključevati v izrednih slučajih. Glejmo torej, da izvolimo prave brate in sestre, pa bo vse v redu. Zavarujemo se pa lahko tudi s tem, kar je priporočal glavni urednik v Prosveti, namreč da zopet zahesemo v pravila točko o odpoklicu vsakega posameznega glavnega odbornika, kateri se ne bi hotel pokoriti celokupnemu glavnemu odboru.
Zelo veliko se tudi zmeraj poudarja, dajte nekaj narediti za stare člane. Tudi jaz sem zato, da bi bilo dobro kaj dodati ali zvišati, toda imejmo pa v mislih tudi to, da niso nam in tudi mi danes ne obljubljamo ali se zavezujemo, komu dati poleg za varovalrtlile tudi pokojnino. Si cer pa vsak član, ki vloži proš njo pri svojem društvu, dobi, kar društvo odobri. Med tisoč! članstva se zmeraj zgodi, da te mu ali onemu nekaj ne ugaja, ozirema m'sli, da je prikrajšan ali upravičen do več. Članstvo v splošnem pa ve zftkoj plačuje in le hvaležno društvu in orga nizaciji, da dobi podporo v tej ali dni obliki.
Torej tudi iz tega razloga n potrebno, da bi debatirali in priporočali to in ono ter na dol go razlagali, ceš, pri našem dru štvu je tale slučaj. Pri vsakem društvu Je gotovo k<Jo, ki potrebuje, če pa izpolni tozadevne 11 aine, bo tudi dobil. Meni do sedaj še ni znunof da bi odklonilo društvo uli jednota prošnjo potrebnemu članu. Bodimo torej zmerni in skušajmo omejiti konvenčne izdatke. To bomo storili, če smo v resnici za to, da bo zadostoval konvenčni sklad in če mogoče tudi kaj ostalo v njem.
Nekatere člane zmeraj motijo številke premoženju SNPJ, ki ko od časa do časa priobčene v glasilu, čtš, toliko milijonov imajo, pa ne dsjo ne za to ne za ono, ali menijo, du bi mogli dsti vfcaj več. Vsem takim članom #11 delegatom-, ki ko takega mišljenja, priporočam, da sc poglobijo in izračunajo, koliko bi pri šlo na vsukega člana, če bi raz-delili vse sklade.
Te vritice srm napisal zato, da ml ne bo treba tratiti čass na konvenciji komu drugemu i boljšimi idejsmi. V koliko bo delegacija upoštevala te nasvete. se bnm po prepričal drug' teden.

Predkonvenčna beseda
Ko pridejo te vrstice do članov-čitateljev, bodo oddaljeni delegati že na poti, drugi pa se bodo pripravljali na odhod na 13. redno konvencijo proti Evelethu, Minn. Istočasno, ko bo dosegla ta Prosveta Minnesoto, bodo tja dospeli tudi člani glavnega odbora in treh provizoričnih konvenčnih odborov, da pripravijo materijal za konvencijo — popravke in dodatke k pravilom, pregled pove-rilnic in pripravo resolucij.
Glavni odbor se bo sestal na svojem polletnem zasedanju v Evelethu par dni pred konvencijo — prihodnji petek. To zasedanje mora imeti v smislu pravil. S tem bo ustrelil dva ptiča z enim pokom in tudi jednoti prihranil nekaj denarja. Ta seja glavnega odbora bo krajša kot običajno, kajti glavna stvar bo — konvencija.
★
Razprave v Prosvcti so pokazale, da vlada med članstvom veliko zanimanje za to konvencijo. Letos ni bilo treba nobenega spodbujanja, naj se člani oglasijo s svojimi predkonvenčnimi razpravami in sugestijami za izboljšanje jednote. Vse to je prišlo čisto avtomatično. Letos seveda ni nihče dvomil, da-li se bo konvencija vršila ali ne. Povsem drugače pa je bilo lani, ko je vse viselo v zraku radi transportnih omejitev. Vendar pa smo šli skozi proceduro in izvolili delegate, kajti v to so nas silila pravil« In državna oblast. Potem pa je bilo porušeno vse tisto delo, ko je bila končno odbita naša prošnja zs obdržavanje konvencije. Tako tudi ni bilo predkonvenčnih razprav, kajti tudi članstvu se
je zdelo, da bo morala biti 13. redna konvencija odložena.
*
Letošnja konvencija se bo vršila v veliki solidnosti organizacije. Ta solidnost je vsaj navidezno boljša kot je bila kdaj v zadnjih 15 letih. Besedo "navidezno" rabimo vsled tega, ker je v današnjih razmerah In današnjem svetu vse relativno. Kar je danes gospodarsko solidno, so jutri lahko napol ali popolne razvaline. V kapitalističnem svetu ni faktlčno nobene trajne solidnosti ali sigurnosti. Vse je od danes do jutri, vse zgrajeno na pesku. Ničesar pa bolj kot investicije, pa bile privatne ali vladne vrste. Naj pride zopet velika gospodarska kriza (velik čudež bo, ako v neftaj letih ne pride do nje) in vse, kar je danes "solidno", bo jutri omajano, lahko zdrobljeno.
Toda kljub temu pravimo, da bo prihodnja konvencija našla nošo jednoto bolj zdravo in solidno kot je bila kdaj v zadnjih 15 letih. Pretežna večina Jednotinega premoženj« — čez 90% — je vloženega v vladne menice (bonde) — zvezne, državne, občinsko. Donos sli obrestno mera teh investicij je sicer nižja kot jo bila prejšnja leta, toda visok donos še nI nobeno merilo za solidnost. Visoke obresti so v resnici špekulativne, čemur se pa pri jednoti izogibamo. Zato naš gospodarski odsek investira skoraj izključno v zvezne bonde, ki so smatrani kot najbolj konservativne «11 varne investicije.
V članstvu je jednota napredovala za skoraj 14,000 v obeh oddelkih od zadnje konvencije. V tej številki so seveda vključeni tudi člani, po številu okrog 7,000, bivše SSPZ, ki se jo na zadnji konvenciji združila z Jednoto. Prirastek je bil torej lep, ako upoštevamo vse faktorje.
Organizacija je na visoki stopnji tudi moralno. Članstvo jednote se je imenitno izkazalo v raznih akcijah, pomožnih in političnih, v zvezi s starim krajem, kjer se je v zadnjih letih bil največji boj za svobodo, bratstvo in enakopravnost. Temu boju je nsše članstvo z zanimanjem sledilo in mu nudilo vso moralno in v veliki meri tudi materialno pomoč. To tudi še vedno del«. Dobro merilo na tem polju je cirkulacija Prosvcte (dnevnika), ki so je od zadnje konvencije do danes zvišala za okroglo 1.7Č0 novih naročnikov. To število sicer ni veliko, toda za naše razmere, ko smrt dela vedno večje vrzeli med starejšo generacijo, je značilno. To seveda ne pomeni, da lahko prenehamo s tekočo jubilejno kam panjo za nove naročnike. Nasprotno! Naj bo nam bodrilo, da zanesemo ugitacijo tudi v one naselbine In k onim društvom, kjor ta kampanju še ni dobila odziya.
Ako pogledamo nazaj na nekaj preteklih konvencij, je bil« si tuanja preccj drugačna. Deseta redna konvencija, ki se je vrši la v Chicagu leta 1933 sredi največje krize, je našla tudi našo jednoto zelo prizadeto, kakor vse člunstvo. Izguba v članstvu Je šla v tisoče in mnoge investicije ho bile na psu ali celo šle na boben V času 11 rodne konvencijo leta 1037 v Clevclandu je tud« nad jednoto se vedno visela kriza, kajti bilo Jo še vodno tisoč? naših članov brez dela in zaslužka. Za mnoge jo bila WPA edin vir grenkega Hruhka. V času 12. konvencije v Pittsburghu lota 11141 pa je vi*ela nad nami In nad deželo strašna vojna, ki Jo prinesla človeštvu toliko gorja.
Nafci 13. redna konvencija se bo vršila v svetu velikih sprememb in radikalnega presnavljanja; tudi v svetu velikih napetost in konfliktov med—"zmagovalci" (edini smagovalec Je bil vojni bog Mars'| Mir visi v zraku kot obstroljena ptica, ki se bori s« življenje in lovi pred padcem.
Kaj nam prinese bodočnost. Je v naročju bogov, toda odvisno tudi (»d nas hamib. <»d vsega delovnega ljudatva. To ljudstvo moro vladajočim silam odločno povedati, da ne mar« povratka v predvojne razmere m«s:ie brezposelnosti, še manj pa novega sveUiv-nega klanja in la/dejovanja! Toda obojemu ao bo Izognilo le. ako se tudi politično in gospodarsko osvobodi in postavi na laatne noge To mora doseči le. ako se vrže no gradnjo svoje lastne politi*, ne organizacije in obenem na gradnjo zadružnih podjetij. Z drugo besedo: na konkretno gradnjo novo civilizacije To omenjamo tudi vsled tega, ker Je od vsega tega odvisno tudi bodoča usddo nafte jednote.
Naj ima vso to v vidiku tudi n«š« dologscijo, kateri kličemo

EVELETHČANI SE PRIPRAVLJAMO ZA KONVENCIJO
Evoleth, Minn.—Zelo smo zaposleni s pripravami za 13. redno konvencijo SNPJ. Radi bi ustregli vsem, tako d« bi bilt de-egatje, glavni odborniki in gostje zadovoljni ne samo začasa tonvencije, ampak tudi po konvenciji. Naša želja jo, da pi se spominjali mesta Eveletha tudi >otem, ko boste že doma.
Odbor za priprave zboruj« tri-irat in Štirikrat na mesec. Dobo veliko. Kar se tiče mesta, nam gredo dobro na roke in o-krašenc bodo glavne ulico in vse drugo. Najbolj zaposlena jo ses-l;ra Ursula Ambrozich. Ona Je prodsednica tega odbora, pri tem pa ji pridno pomaga njen mož. Ga ne smem preveč pohvaliti, da ne pridem v zadrego.
Dahes bom omenil« samo predsednike veseličnlh odborov. Brat Samsa bo vse uredil glede stanovanj. Njegovo delo bi bilo olajšano, ako bi se delegati in delegatlnje /.glasili ob pravem času za stanovanja. Se sedaj ni dobil vseh pisem od delegatov za stanovanje. Vendar pa bodo morali spati nekje.
Brat Perltz bo preskrbel vo žila. da ne bo treba dolegotom hoditi peš nu piknik sli drugam. Brot Ambrozich se drži programske knjižice. Na aojl je poročal, "dobili smo že precej o-glasov, pa bt jih radi še več!" Brst Peter Kerže ims vse ure Jono sa ples. ki se bo vršil po bonketu. Godbo je dobil iz Chisholma in ae imenuje Smolts Orchestra To je najboljša god bo v tej okolici.
jNttra Ra/il bo sprejemala do legate. Brat Beuts ima na gla vi piknik. Včaalh nas Je skrbelo, £o bo dež tisti dan. sedaj pa skrbimo čo bo kaj sa suha grla. No, rekel jo, do bo že neko j. ka bo. jaz ne vem. Brat Lesaar pa mora skrbeti, da bomo imeli ve
llko parado in dosti dobre godbe. Godci bodo prišli iz desetih mest. Torej godbe bo dosti, tako da ne bo delegatom dolgčas. Br. Lessar jo po poklicu brivec. Tedaj, ko jo prišla moda, da so se pričelo ionske striči, ga jo e-na vprašala: "Gospod, ali vi genske striiote?" On pa je odgovoril, da samo ženskino lase.
Sestra Mary Brank ima skrbeti za petje, za program pa sestra Ambrozich. Sedaj pa o kuharicah. Sestra Frances Us-nik je obljubila, da bo s svojimi pomočnicami napravila zelo okusna jedila. Ona ne bo samo cfobro kuhala, ampak bo tudi pražila in pekla. Sestra Rebetz ima v oskrbi banket. Skrbela bo, da no bo šel nihče lačen od mize. Tako je obljubila. Sestra Zatkovich in njene delavke nam bodo pa pripravile na pik niku nekaj dobrega. Piknik se bo vršil v parku pri Eveleth Lake. Kdor bo lačen, naj kar tja pride. Veste, vsi ti odbori imajo velika dela s pripravimi. Člani in članice, ki bodo zaposleni v velikem številu, radi delajo. Za delo se je priglasilo več žensk. Sicer pa vsi vemo, da brez žensk ni nič.
V nedeljo, 11. avgusta opol dno, bomo šli čakat delegate, ki se bodo pripeljali s posebnim vlakom. Seveda, na kolodvor bomo šli z godbo, nakar jih bo mo spremili v mestno dvorano, kjer jim bo br. Samsa razredil karte z naslovi stanovanj. Na razpolago bodo avtomobili, da jih odpeljejo po hišah. Ni treba imeti bojazni, da bi se kdo zgubil, kajti naše mesto ni veliko. Največ Je ^Slovencev. Kjer žive Slovenci, tam so lepi vrtovi in dosti cvetlic. Na mojem vrtu sem imela rdeč paradižnik že 6. julija. J Torej ni tako mrzlo v Evelethu.
Torej pripravljeno je vse, samo delegat« še čakamo. Dobrodošli delegati in delegatlnje v naše mesto! ^
Morda mi bo kdo odgovoril na to vprašanje.) Tukaj sva dve de-legatinjl in dva delegata, torej štirje po številu. Smo prav "fajn" za pogled. Nihče pa se ne zmeni, kako bomo#mi sprejeti. Prav ako bi r«da vedela, če bomo dobili plačano za vožnjo. Vse kaže, da bomo morali hoditi pei na konvencijo. Hočeš ali nočei, moraš! Tukaj bomo malo "pri-šparali" jednoti,.kot bi rekel Gorenjec.
Podpisana bo prodaja trošne listke na pikniku pri jezeru, in sicer v kuhinji. Priporočam se, da bi kupili od mene. Rada bi se postavila, da sem dobra pro-dajaVca. Zelo bi me veselilo, če bi prišel kdo na konvencijo, ki je doma iz Velikih Lašč n« Dolenjskem. Jaz sem doms od tam. Torej na veselo svidenje na pikniku!
P Društvo Evoleth ne bo imelo sejo 11. avgusta, temveč 26. avgusta, začetek ob pol osmih zvečer. Udeležite se v velikem številu. Rada bi vam malo postregla, ker ste mi dali (Priznanje za moja dola in izvolili za delegatlnjo. Torej ne pozabite, v pondeljek, 26. avgusta zvečer, se vrši seja v naši dvorani.

Cleveland, O,—To moje današnje poročilo se nanaša samo od 29.*julija do 2. ali 3. avgusta.
Tudi ta teden sem obiskal mnogo družin, oziroma veliko število članov in članic SNPJ, z namenom, da jih naročim na dnevnik Proovoto, obenem pa sem agitiral. da bi pristopili k našemu društvu 147 SNPJ, nam reč pri onih, ki še niso člani naše jednote. V nedeljo bomo i-meli sejo In bom videl. aH so obljubo Izpolnili. Seve, samo obljube nič ne štejejo, temveč drži le. da pridejo na sejo s potrjeno zdravniško listino.
Naročnike som isksl na razniK straneh nažega mests in zopet som as napotil v Omanovo kra ljestvo. Veste, obiskal sem tudi rojaka, ki živi blizu Omana, toda zaenkrat ga fte nisem mogel
pridobiti. Dobil pa sem nekaj dobrih naročnikov na sosednji ulici. Zakaj ne bi čitali naše delavske Prosvete tudi v Omanovem kraljestvu. Vsepovsod pripovedujem naj čitajo poleg A. D. tudi Prosveto, da tako slišijo obe plati zvona in potem mislijo s svojimi možgani.
Mnogi pa so me odvrnili z izgovorom, da "gospud" pravijo v cerkvi in še posebno pri spovedi, d« je velik smrtni greh čita-ti časopise, ki niso strogo in pristno katoliški. Tako mi odgovarjajo. Kadar omenim pri eni ali drugi družini, da imam namen obiskati to ali ono hišo, mi odsvetujejo, da je bolje, da ne poskusim, ker jih ne bom mogel naročiti na Prosveto. Jaz pa vseeno grem, pa če imam uspeh ali ne. Imam strast, da spoznam ljudi in njih karakterje.
3e dober teden od dneva ko to pišem (2. avgusta), pa se bomo odpeljali v Eveleth, Minn., na 13. redno konvencijo. Lep in bratski pozdrav celokupnemu glavnemu odboru in vsem delegatom in delegatinjam! Torej na veselo svidenje! Ob tej priliki želim prav prijazno in dobrodušno opozoriti vse onte delegate in delegatinje, ki morda niso naročniki na dnevnik Prosve to, da se naitxre še pred konvencijo ali pa na konvenciji. Vedite, da boste na konvenciji prav gotovo dva stalna zastopnika, poleg tega pa tudi veliko drugih agitatorjev, na primer sestra Udovich iz Chicaga. Vsi bomo prav gotovo imeli s seboj potrdilne knjižice noč in dan. Torej ko stalen zastopnik bo tam večni popotnik Jankovich in pa stara grča Tone Zornik, ki pro daj« možganske medecine.
Rojake v Evelethu in iz dru gih bližnjih naselbin vabim na naročbo. Ako mi bo količkaj čas dopuščal, vas bom obiskal tudi po hišah. Vedite, da kot člani SNPJ je vaša dolžnost, da ste najprej naročeni na časopis, ki je glasilo vaše in naše močne, poštene in zelo vplivne podporne organizacije SNPJ.
Ko pridemo na konvencijo, se bomo gotovo videli tudi s kole gom in očetom vseh popotnikov Matijo Pogorelcem. Srečne oči in srečen čas, ko se zopet vidimo s prijateljem in starim bratom Pogorelcem. Ne bi bilo napačno, Matija, ako bi prišel sprejeti elevelandsko delegacijo na pastajo. .Kot starosta vseh popotnikov, kot dopisnik in stara poštena grča, pozdravljen in na veselo svidenje! Želel bi videti tudi starega delavskega bojevnika, brat« in sodruga Načeta 2lembergarja.
Sedaj pa naj navedem imena novih naročnikov, ki sem jih pridobil pretekli teden: Tom Bsrborič (257). John Semich (257), George Blatnik (28), Anton Skočaj (139), Anton Tier (142), Peter Ličan (135), John
Ludvik (158), Joseph Durjava (5). Torej osem novih naročnikov, sedem celoletnih in eden polletni. Najlepša hvala vsem in lepo pozdravljeni, posebno novi naročniki!
Anion Jankovich.
NEKAJ BESED GLEDE POSLOPJA SNPJ
West All is. Wia.—Danes nameravam malo napisati, a dosti povedati—če bo šlo? Naj izrazim nekaj misli glede poslopja glavnega urada, katero, po mnenju nekaterih članov in glavnih odbornikov, ne odgovarja potrebam in razmeram.'
V jubilejni izdaji Prosvete br. Paul Berger obširno razpravlja o tem predmetu in podaja nekaj sugestij, kako bi se dalo izpeljali, d« ne bi bilo treba zidati novega poslopja.
Moje mnenje je, da v bodočnosti jednota ne bo več tako rastla, poleg tega pa je možno, da bo prevzela bratske zavarovalne organizacije vlada in dobili bomo zavarovalnino za 25 do 30 procentov ceneje kot sedaj. Sicer pa je potrebno, da prihranimo nekaj dela tudi za našo mladino, tako da bo tudi ona imela nekaj na skrbi, kadar bo prevzela vodstvo.
Brat Berger priporoča, da bi jednota sezidala tiskarno na posestvu pokojnega M. Konde, katerega sedaj lastuje SNPJ. Jaz pa priporočam br. Berger ju, da bi ponudil po zmerni ceni svoje poslopje, katero bi se lahko preuredilo in potem bi bilo dovolj prostora za vrednostne listine itd. Akq bi tedaj dobila jednota tisto zemljišče, ne bi bilo danes tega vprašanja pred nami. Jaz sem bil vedno v strahu, da bo kdo drugi kupil tisto loto. Tako se je zgodilo in tistega greha še niso pozabili stari člani in ga ne bodo, dokler bodo živeli.
Kar se tiče priporočil, da bi jednota kupila farmo za stare in onemogle člane, niso na mestu in je sploh škoda o tem besed v Pros veti, pa naj to priporoča kdor koli. Priporočam, da se s tem delegacija sploh ne u-kvarja na konvenciji. Po večini imajo naši člani svoje domove in bodo doma ostali do svoje smrti. Sedaj imajo tudi države svoje zavode za onemogle, kjer skrbijo zanje.
Ko sem skušal pred 22 leti zainteresirati jednoto za tako po sestvo, so mi očitali, da iščem provizije, dasiravno sem povedal odvetniku, ki je imel v oskrbi tisto posestvo, da ne gre za kako nagrado, temveč za blagor naše organizacije SNPJ. Posestvo je imelo 160 akrov rodovitne zemlje, veliko glavno poslopje, zidano in staro komaj devet let, poleg tega tri ali štiri hiše. Tisto poslopje bi bilo dovolj veliko za glavni urad in tiskarno, hiše pa za stanovanja izvršnih uradnikov. Vse skupaj

poročilo o federacijj ski seji in drugo
Belliire, O.-Seja bridgep ske federagije SNPJ, ki se j«, šila 17. julija, je bila prav dd obiskana. Navzoči so bili i štirje delegati. Razprave v rist članstva, federacije in note so bile precej živahne.
Za zapisnikarja je bil izvo Joseph Skoff, tajnik društvi 562. Dalje je bilo zaključ da federacija priredi plesno selico na starega leta dan, in cer v korist društvene blag v Društvenem domu v Bo ville, O. Izvoljeni odbor polno moč urediti in preskr vse potrebno. Priporočamo druga društva in organizacij priredijo svojih veselic na o njeni dan.
Na tej seji je pristopilo k deraciji društvo št. 4, ki ima sedež v Neffu, O. Zasluga to gre tajniku Florianu PisI Upanje je, da bo temu dru na prihodnji seji sledila še la društva, ki niso včlanjen naši federaciji.
Poročano je bilo že veliko da'federacij a vrši svoje do' sti v smislu pravil. Če k tem dvomi, naj na prvi seji kaže drugače in se bo tako stavilo uradnika, ki ne bi dane mu naloge. Bratje in tre, stran z morebitnimi temljenemi predsodki. Ce kaj narobe, se naj to prinen sejo federacije in popravi rebitna krivica v splošno ' voljstvo vsega članstva.
Kakor je razvidno iz Proi te, so društva izvolila 266 d gatov, med njimi 38 delegal Če bi sleherni govoril pri točki pravil samo eno minuti vzelo štiri ure in 26 minut, kateri priporočajo veliko gacijo v bodočnosti, drugi m no, tretji so mnenja, če se vencija vrši po odsekih, «e ko zaključi v petih ali še dneh. Bližnja bodočnost pa pokazala, kako se bo izteklo skupaj.

A Few Facts About the Convention
~ BY THE TIME THIS ISSUE of Prosveta roaches you, most of the delegates to the thirteenth regular convention of the SNPJ will be ready to leave for or will be en route to the convention city—Eveleth, Minnesota, where everything is in readiness to receive the huge delegation.
•	e •
A number of delegates, especially those from the East and West coasts, will leave early in order to arrive on time for the opening session, and many of them will want to be on hand for the preliminary festivities arranged for Sunday, Aug. 11, the day before the official opening of the conclave.
•	* • fr.-.'*f* ; r.y i. »*' I
The convention will officially open Monday morning at 9
o'clock, but various convention committees such as by-laws, resolutions and credentials will meet several days before the convention date to prepare everything necessary for th^oon-clave. In addition, members of the supreme board will also
meet at their regular setni-annual session on Aug. 9.
0 0 0 » ' '
On Sunday afternoon, Aug. 11, a huge picnic will be held at the Eveleth Lake Park, which will be attended by many delegates and supreme board members who will have gathered there for the convention. An elaborate program' has been arranged for this occasion. .
* * *
AS 8TATED HERE LAST WEEK, the three local SNPJ lodges in Eveleth will bear the brunt of the responsibilities in connection with the convention, and the Minnesota Federation of SNPJ lodges will lend its hand in carrying out all arrangements scheduled during the convention period.
•	* e
The local convention committees have made elaborate preparations for the entertainment and comfort of the delegation which will number exactly 300 delegates and supreme board members. It is likely that an equal number of members and friends will also be in the convention city to take in the convention and its festivities.
0 0 0
On Wednesday, Aug. 14, a huge convention banquet will take place. In addition to the delegates and executives and friends, the baquet speaking program includes such well-known personalities as Etbin Kristan, president of the Slovene American National Council, our political authority and a venerable statesman and writer; Louis Adamic, our eminent writer, Dr. Slavko Zore, counselor to the Jugoslav Embassy in Washington, D. C., and Leo Krzycki, noted labor leader.
e • • .
Joseph Bogdanich, well-known Jugoslav artist of Eveleth, will have an exhibit of oil paintings at the convention hall. One of the paintings is dedicated to the SNPJ and one to the Slovene National Museum in Cleveland, Ohio. The exhibit includes 25 of his oil paintings depicting the Minnesota Arrowhead region.
* * *
THE CONVENTION ITSELF is attracting Wide attention among our people in this country. As the largest and strongest frsternal society on this continent, the Slovene National Benefit Society exerts the greatest influence on all our communities.
e * •
Am stated here last week, foremost on the list of things to be done at the convention will, no doubt, come the problems of insurance, sick benefit, disability and old members. Considerable time will also be devoted to investments, how to invest the organization's funds in future, as wall as to juvenile members, how to attract youth into our Society through increased juvenile activities.
a a a
In addition, many other matters will come up before the delegates, among' them the principles on which our Society was founded and flourished these two score and two years.
This includes the policy of our official publications.

Stragglers SNPJ Lodge No. 614
CLEVELAND, O—Now that Conditions are almost back to normal, may I make a suggestion? How about a "Scribes Roundup"—a sort of a get-together of all members who act as reporters for their re ■pectlve lodges?? We could formu late plans as to how, when and where we could meet in a body, preferably at some anniversary celebrstion. Haven't you often wondered just whst he or she looked like? I have! Think it over, scribblers, and let me know through the Prosveta.
Newsy Notes
Strugglers basket picnic held on July 31 was a huge success. It really seemed like old-times with the Perusek and Marolt families predominating.
Hilites of the picnic: Fred Perusek giving a penny lecture to all the ladies on how to banish "blue Monday" by using the Rinso way—just dip, rinse and hang out to dry. Paul Golob being the target in the watermelon throwing contest 'and Vic Zele came out the winner. The baby bottle contest bringing ipiles of smiles from the whole gang and yours truly emerged victorious; believe me, folks, I felt it all week long.
The watermelon eating contest won by Eleanor Laurie and Loretta Lampe. That, too, brought many laughs and it sort of made the parents acquainted with the young fry. I can still see Lou Marolt eating fried chicken, not one piece but five! Millie Marolt getting into the dancing mood while Louise Ganor played the accordion and Paul Golob substituting as the ban-oist in his own imitable style. Well done, my lad!
The kiddies hsving a wonderful time taking turns on riding the pony which was furnished by Walter Lampe. Thanks s lot, Wally, for making the youngsters happy, and I'm sure it's one day they won't forget for a long while.
We saw amongst the crowd the Joe Karlinger family, Anthony Za-mans, Phil Sircas, Joe Tolars, Walter Lahqjwes, John Marolts, and the I late-comers Frank Line and the missus.
If you had a god time, would you ;are to have a wiener roast at this aame spot some Saturday nite? Then come to our meeting on the 14th when plans will be made.

Detroit It Ready ,
DETROIT.—Here are a few bits about Detroit that we would like, to have the delegates to the SNPJ convention to know about.
Mayor Jeffries of Detroit made statement on the Detroit transportation plans that 1490 new buaes and 78 new streetcars have been ordered, that two limited Scccs highways, the Lodge and the Cross town, Ire ready for ground break ing, with the Grand river express way to follow. These highways will run express has lines for long distance over thoroughfares where thefe will be no cross traffic and no stop lights; it will be the fastest rapid transit in the country.
Also, in Detroit, a committee is already on its way to London to make a bid'for the World's Olympic games if poaaible to have the games htld here in Detroit, which wilt mean the building of a large stadium to hold the events as well as other facilities. Also in Detroit a World's Fair committee is busy publishing a 100-page booklet advertising Detroit an the next site for the World's Fait and with a good chance of Detroit being selected.
Also in Detroit, according to an article by Ray Travnik, the Detroit Slovenes of the eastaide are making plana for building a new Slovene Home. So delegates with all of this evening to Detroit and more, h can you fail to vote Detroit as the next SNPJ convention site?

comrades' tole book
By J. F. Filolt
CLEVELAND, O—A very nice crowd was in attendance at Comrade*' first public-picnic July 28. Considering the setup at the SNPJ Farm, with the dance hall located away from the main grounds, no beer, etc., the affair was quite successful. Sufficient credit cannot be given to the group that worked; namely, Frank and Pauline Ross. Frances and Mike Prešeren, 'Jean Yarshen, Dot Mosnik. Joe Zorman. Joe Sircel, Tony Kerze, Pauline Spik. Antoniette Skok. Dani Fifolt. Donald and Joan Fifolt and Loretta Kerze. Bacon and eggs wss the first order of the dsy for the workers, which certainly hit the spot. Dot Mosnik showed up later arriving by bus, in her determination to be on hand to help out. Nice going, Dorothy.
The crowd enjoyed the games, especially the egg-tossing contest. Pauline Spik, past master at the art of slinging an egg copped first prize paired with Eddie Azman. She and "Popeye" Modic won in previous years. Popeye was supposed to show up but ran into car trouble. Betty Jartz' aim was square and true when she hurled the rolling pin with mighty force st the target. The kiddies' scramble for the pennies was fast and furious with nary a copper piece in sight within thirty seeonds. In appreciation of the fine cooperation of the present caretakers, Mr. and Mr»; Hlavaty, Comrades contributed Dart of their ration to the farm. The young couple saw to it that everything was lined up in fine shape.
Many prospects for membership were talked to, Anne York sighing up. Her husband is a very energetic worker for one of our rival organizations.
Mingling among the crowd was supreme member. Matt Petrovič, his wife, Josephine Mocnik and husband John. Bro. Celin from lodge V boj, Bro. Sore, Bro. Bias Novak and many other representatives from the older lodges. The Loyal-Ite group were on hand headed by Rose Raines, A1 Raines, Dot Rossa, Shorty Zadeli. Ed Tomsic from the Utopians, several Strugglers, Spartans, many ladies i from Napredne Slovenke were present, led by Mrs. Azman and the whale Azman family including Ann.
Comrade member* were very well represented, just to mention a few: the Orenik sisters, Rudy Turk, Strltofs,' Tony and Mary Kushlan, Korens, Beljans, Grums, Wukovich, Plemels, Vehsrs, Samsa. Jartz, Hoyts, Reinmann, Valentines. Sebe-nikff, Mukavetz, Debevec, Modic, Laurich, Alden.< < *" i

Is Huge Success
LATROBE, PA.—The refruits- of the Westmoreland County Federation's annual social event overcame our greatest expectations. It Was an Ideal summer day for an outdoor gathering and it was gratifying to note the splendid turnout not only from our own Westmoreland vicinity but also from surrounding counties.
These affairs are extremely Important in propagating the principles of the SNPJ and Sunday's affair indicates how strongly related are the lodges in this area. The warmth and good humor along with thjf wonderful cooperation displayed wherever any work was needed to be done. Thanks for a job well done!!
We were prepared with liberal amounts of all kinds of refreshments but even they proved lacking at the end of the evening due to the large crowd. The lively music of Frank Baloh and his orchestra was wetl received through-out the afternoon and evening. And then those happy and spontaneous outbursts of Slovene songs that thrill us always no matter how often we hear them.
There Were 'many people who traveled great distances to attend this affair, for instance those folks from C ley eland from Lodges 53 and 450. Also worthy of special commendation are the'people from the following lodges, Ambridge, Bridge -vilie, Broughton, Baggaley, Ches-wick, Center, Claridge, Darragh, Delmont, Export. Greensburg, Har-wlck, Harmarville, Hermjnie, Hutchinson, Latrobe, Library, Lowber, Manor, Pleasant Valley, Penn, Rlll-ton, Russellton, Slickville, Universal, West Newton, Willock, White Valley, Yukon and. Verona. Not to be forgotten are the folks from Westmoreland City and Pitcairn. I had the extreme pleasure of meeting you good people and hope I haven't 9 ver looked any towns or lodges which would be easy to dO in the face of such a large attendance. To all nevertheless we extend a sincere vote of appreciation for your presence. It is with such close teamwork that we will continue the work of the Federation in this part of the state.
News of the forthcoming convention prevails throughout all SNPJ communities and we hope the results of this convention will be a success. -It must be rerr em bored with what importance and significance our delegates have the distinct and be it the "deserving or undeserving" honor of attending this meaningful conclave on behalf of the lodges they represent. It is assumed that they were elected to represent the SNPJ of their communities and I am sure the organisation is well aware of the importance of its social existenoe and good ."cllowship wherever any group gets together; however, it seems too many are concerned with the good time awaiting them rather than the responsibilities of deciding the serious and thought-provoking issues which will be on the agenda.
News from Edward Matko again who his assumed his duties with the Coast Guard In Trieste recently. He writes of his adventures into Gorica and the necessity of trsveling well armfed while riding through this disputed territory. Along the so-called Jugoslav-Italian boundary line and the surrounding country, he writes, are the familiar slogans and words painted on houses, barns and posts, written in Slovene. Most of them sav "tukaj smo SLOVENCI" and "HOČEMO V JUGOSLAVIJO." Also everywhere you see Tito's name. There ia much hostility la this section, he says, but you can't blame them for the Slovenes are not being treated fairly. At any rale, he goes on further to syy, that the Slovenes really work to exist while the Italians are a shiftless lot. More news next time.

The prospective lodger was looking the room over, and saw no wash-stand. "And where," he inquired anmewhat haughtily, "do I perform my ablutions'''
"Not here, certainly." retorted th» landlady "Only last week a bat broke two of my best chairs.
CHICAGO - Pioneers homecoming pionic held at Piben Park last Saturday afternoon ' add evening was a great success in every way except one. We ran out of "suds" a little after nine o'clock. Perhaps a conservative estimate of 2500 people attended the huge affair. We were honored with the presence of very many out-of-towners. They came from Fontana, Calif., Washington. D. C„ Detroit, Milwaukee. La Salle, Youngstown, Strabane. Carnegie, Cliff Mine, Johnstown and Universal, all Pennsy towns; 'East Chicago and Gary, Indiana. Perhaps thel-e were many others, not to my knowledge. -	(
j The people thronged into the grove much earlier than othet- years. The dinners prepared by the able crew in the kitchen, were just simply delicious, and were ready to serve on time. The kitchen was af complete sell-out. Children's games were one of the main early attractions, and the children were happy] Bingo stand was going good until the orchestra invited the dance lovers.
Frantye Yanfcovich's ..Columbia Recording orchestrs was par excellence. People simply went wild over it. Entertaining and interesting feature was the "Shoemaker Polka", something new for our< dance lovers.
The biu event of the evening was finally here, the awarding of a 1946 Ford De Luxe ear. Subscription Sales kept mounting all evening, with several of the members constantly selling1 them. Even a'half dozen or so juveniles were busily selling them, and were they proud of their awards afterwards! Three judges were: Beverly Lazar, of Fontana, Calif.; Jean Ruša, Cleveland. Ohio, and Elwood Blake of Detroit. Mich. The lucky person was a Chicago girl, Rose Zalokar. Naturally We were all dissapointed we couldn't be the lucky person, but maybe another time.' - , .< (	■

Because the treasurer and I were so very busy all evening, I he d little chance to get around the grove to talk to the people, and that is why I didn't get to see the Detroit and Milwaukee delegation. We hope they all enjoyed themselves—Third child, a girl, was born to Mary and

CHICAGO.—The big Job is over. A record crowd was on hand last Saturday night for the Pioneer Homecoming Picnic at Pilsen Park and they took in the good things we had to offer, spent a few happy hours and participated in the awarding of a new 1946 Ford sedan to Miss Rose Zalokar, of 6154 Waban-sia Avenue, Chicago. The young lady was present and was thus able to drive away in a new car. The job was the biggest the Pioneers ever tackled and with the exception of some minor flaws, carried through very satisfactorily. Frank Yanko-vich, who flew here from Cleveland, certainly did the job that he was expected to do. The dance floor was neatly filled all tMe time. Many people took advantage of the fine meals that were served. The children had their games and contests; Dingo was played, and the general disposition of the people was good. Though we were next to the brewery, we were limited to seventy percent of. the beer we had used the previous year, which meant that we ran out of beer early in the evening and that dampened our spirits. A large committee labored from morning 'til 'way past midnight to serve our patrons and did a splendid job.
WEEK will be a mighty
for the entire SNPJ member-ip which numbers nearly 67,000 both departments.
The 13th regular convention of SNPJ which meets in Eveleth, n.. is unquestionably the big-event among our people in this sitry Let us hope that the liberations and decisions will be credit to the entire organization all respects. Let us also hope petty peeves and cheap politics not mar the proceedings, toother big event, although re 1 in importance, will take place the Labor Day weekend in nkegan, 111., when four events ill be rolled into one, namely, the W Midwest Meet, the Balina arney. the Juvenile Field Day, id « dance at the Slovene Nat'l

Our hardest job was to accommo date the out-of-towners, many of whom were present. There was a fine group from Detroit, some from Cleveland, Mary Suglick and Emil Hraat came from Washington, D. C.: Milwaukee and Waukegan were represented; and we had visitors from as far West as Fontana, Calif. Hotels in Chicago just do not have any vacancies and reservations could not be made though we tried and tried. This situation has been made worse by the recent Hotel La Salle fire which threw a lot of people Into other hotels. We are sorry for this unpleasantness but hope our patrons will understand. We are thankful to all who participated in the homecoming and to the large committee
which functioned so well.

One of our Pioneer girls advises that she wanted to leave the lodge without giving any reaaon. We re sponded that she undoubtedly would have to carry some* insurance and Hated the benefita to which she was entitled under her SNPJ policy for a nominal premium and at the same time asked that she cohsult her in surance man if he could give her similar policy for anywhere near our coat. The young lady followed our advice and from all appearances the insurance agent could not dupll cate our policy so she is continuing her affiliation with the Pioneers This logic has saved many another Pioneer and ia probably the best weapon of offense we have in the SNPJ.
According to an article in the Wall Street Journal, Sweden, too, la at-1 lathing her ties to Russia's apron strings. She will loan Russia a lot of money and in return will get a lot of new trade. What's important that Sweden doesn't want any part of Europe's "Western bloc." Notwithstanding, all the pressure used by England and America, some of the most important European countries find it expedient to form a new allignment.—Illinois paid unemployment benefits of nineteen million dollars during the first six months of 1946. That's a lot of money, and indicates what a fund of this kind can do to tide people over.

We'll be going to the thirteenth regular SNPJ convention where we expect to meet a lot of old familiar faces and spend considerable tlmo on problems of the SNPJ. One of those old familiar faces will not be seen, this time. Joseph Snoy, who has always been in the forefront of SNPJ activities and the progressive labor movement, passed away some time ago. Because of his good work, he was well known and well regard ed and always an inspiration to the rest of us. Though he was burdened with sickness throughout these many years, he continued his efforts in behalf of the good cause. His perseverance enabled him to succeed. His disposition was always generous. He had a kind heart and he will be missed at this convention as well as at the conventions to come. Because of his passing the other coworkers will have to step into his shoes and continue the work where Brother Snoy left off.

Integrity Broadcast
CHICAGO.—Just a few words to the delegates who will represent their lodges at the 13th SNPJ con vention. I noticed recently that many of our supreme officers don' attend our lodge affairs. Well, there'a a reason for It, you see, they would like to attend "but," they too, are short in pay and cannot af ford to apend their money like aome of the rest who can afford to do so. Now my good brothers and sis ters, ypu can do a good deed by passing a little increase in their pay roll, and doing so you will see that they will attend your affairs.
There's a lot more that I would like to say but have been too busy making plans for the Nst'l Ass'n of Letter Carriers convention to be held in Detroit on Labor day week As an alternate delegate I knew had no chance to be present so I am leaving that to our good Brother Michael Flelschhacker who. I know, will repreaent our Integrity lodge well.
'I will appreciate if some of our lodge members will take our Juvenile members to Waukegan and let them enjoy themaelvea, play games, run races, etc., on Sept. 1.
I understand that we will bowl with the inter-lodge league. Now you bowlers get your namea In to Bro. Flelachhacker at once ao you won't be left out. Pleaae pay your dues on time.

Parlact Circl« 26 Conilnuas Its Activities
CHICAGO—Last Saturday's Perfect Circle meeting was one of the most pleaaant held in recent weeks. First the attendanor was very good, everyone in excellent spirits, and this resulting that all wanted to "tell and talk" at once.
Al this was the l§st regular meet-in« held fur the summer duration, all neceaaary business was discussed and disposed of. This, however, does not mean that the Circle's rec* reational activities cease, Wednesday nights the group meets at Gary playground for their softball sessions, teen-agers have planned several outings, and our younger fry are looking forward to the Museum movies, and we will see what can be done as to participation in Waukegan!« Juvenile Field Day. The age limit set does hamper us a bit. We would alao like to thank the Jolly Juveniles for their recent invite to come up for the day, but activities planned 'way ahead interfered with us attending. We will .be seeing you all come Labor Day week-end.
Our two big Fall projects were discussed, mainly the Circle's program and dance on Sept. 28, for the benefit of the Children's Hospital in Slovenia, and the Goodman Theater party on Nov. 29, for the benefit of ttye Circle treasury. We will also haVe a "super-doo" Halloween party, and it is to "out super" any that the Circle has ever had before.
Another Fall activity that our younger boya are looking forward to was divulged by Edward Udo-vlch, rfss't ipanager. It looks as If we will finally be able to get the long awaited gym mats, and by purchasing several sets of boxing gloves the boys will indulge in the manly art of self defense and wrest ling. It Is also planned to put on a Sport Show for parents und friends sometime in late Fall.
It is planned to be strictly "professional stuff" what with trainers, handlers, weigh-ins. referees and all the trimmlnga. All this is to be promoted by the members themselves with the adtdce and some as sistance from Edward, the Circle alumnai boys and this Writer. If any of the fathers ara interested in helping, etc., we would be glad to have you come around on the designated nights, which will be announced later. It looks Ilka u busy Fall and Winter schedule for Perfect Circlers but then they seam to thrive on such a diet.	'
The most important part of the meeting was that some of The Voice of Youth awards had been received from the main office and presented to the winners. The SNPJ and Michael Vrhovnik are to be congratulated on the excellent and appealing prizes chosen to be used as awards for Voice of Youth winners. The cameras, fountain pens and balls and bata were received with much enthusiasm and many were the promises made and heard "to work juat a little bit harder so I can win one of thoaa prices." We shall see. The Voice of Youth winners in the Perfect Circle group ex-tend sincere thanks to the SNPJ. not only for the opportunity given them to write, but for the swell feeling of pleasure that comes in being a winner of such swell prises.
After the meeting was adjourned we went out and took some snapshot pictures. John and Frances Rak were present, as waa Leo Sma-gaj, SNPJ custodian. Michael Vrhovnik graciously came down from his desk to also pose with the group, and here's hoping we took some "beauties".. Incidentally. Mr. Vrhovnik spoke of a very good Idea he had in mind for The Voice of Youth camera winners, and other SNPJ camera enthuslaata. I thought It excellent and hope he will go into more detail in some future articles.

Mr. Ambassador:
I receive with pleasure the letters whereby the Presidium of the Federal People's Republic of Jugoslavia credits you as ambasKudor extraordinary and plenipotentiary of Jugoslavia near the government of United Statea.
As a consequence of the many ties of friendship forged between the people of the United States and the people of Jugoslavia by the numbers of Jugoslavia's sons and daughters who have migrated to thla country, the peuple of the United States have watched with interest the progress of development of Jugoslavia from her formation aa a nation after World War 1 through the troublous course of her subsequent hlatory. The Jugoslavs who have come to the United Statea have made great contributions to American culture and progress, and I find it particularly fitting that In welcoming you as Jugoslav Ambassador to the United States I am welcoming the nephew of the renowned Nikola Tesla, whose scientific work contributed so much to the welfare and progreaa of both the United States and the world.
The people and government of United States will long remember the gallant atruggle which Jugosla via carried on against overwhelming axis forces during World War II—a struggle which cost Jugosla via so many Uvea and wrought ter rlblo deatructlqn to her homea and countryside, but which constituted an outstanding contribution to the final defeat of the axis und the evil forces which it represented. The people of the United States are fol lowing with sympathetic interest the efforts of the Jugoslav people to repair the/lavages of the recent war and to achieve, individually and in concert with the other United Na tions, the realization of those ideals of freedom and democracy which In spirftd the United Nations to vie tory,
I hope that during your stay in this country you will not hesitate to call upon me and other members of the United States government for such assistance as we may be able to render in strengthening the ties of friendship between our two countries. Please convey to the members of the Presidium my greet ings and my sincere wishes for the material and spiritual welfare of the Jugoslav people.
July 18. 1946
Waahlngton, D. C.
Ambanador Kotanovie Prearntt Credentials
Mr. President:
In presenting the letters with which the Presidium of the Federal People's Republic of Jugoslavia accredit me, I, as Ita Ambassador, wish to stress the deep friendship which the peoples of the Federal People's Republic o'f Jugoslavia feel toward the people of the United States of America.
Many ties bind the people of my country and of yours.
The Jugoslavs never forget that Preaident Wilson waa the one who so promptly and fully understood the historic aspirations of Serial, Croats, Slovenes, Macedonlsns and Montenegrins to form a South Hlav union, and who gave them such great aaaiatance. If your efforts were not completely auccaaaful then It was because of the general con-dltlona prevailing at that time,
Nor can we ever forget the true friend and protector whom we, along with all other freedom-loving people in the world, found in the great Franklin D .Roosevelt during the difficult years of faaciat aggression. The words of his message in November, l#4l—"You ere not forgotten and will not be forgotten"— were a promise and a support in our darkest hours.
There la a moral tie in the many Americans of Jugoslav daeeent— from the workers and farmers to the great discoverers of nature's secrets- -who have sought always by hard work ami good eitiaansbip to contribute whatever they eould to the best Interesta and development of this great c<Hintry.
But more than all elae, there is the blood of our peoples ah"! in common In both World Wars foi the principles of self-determination of peoples, for the defenae of civilization and for freMlom of mankind This ia a bond that no tempoiary difficulty can weaken, thai gains even greater meaning In the building and the preservation of pee<»,
Only through difficult struggbs have the peoples of Jugoslavia achieved their Independence Acting In accordance with their heritage of devotion to Justice and
difficulties they waged their struggle for liberation under the leadership of Marshal Tito. Thoir sacrifices wen* very large; they bore them willingly in the belief that victory for the principles of the United Nations was worth any cost.
During the long fight against oppression and toward realization of the people's napi ration* for demiw ratlc liberty and free opportunity, the Jugoslavs have encountered great haidships and misunderstand ings. It was always a source of in spiration and courage to us to remember that America in the da\s of George Washington, who so n<>b ly embodied these aspirations, over came still greater hardships and misunderstandings. And during the most difficult days of the Second World War Jugoslavia was saved by the same spirit given expression,by Abraham Lincoln at a trugic mo ment in the history of the United States--"My paramount object in this great struggle is to save the union."
These parallels in our histoid und in the spirit of our people alwnys have assured us that we would find understanding among the American people for our aspirations and our efforts. That understanding is more than ever valued today when all the deepest desires of our people are for a stable pesce and when all their energies are dsvoted—with the great assistance of UNRRA. to which you contribute so generously—tO reconstructing the life and economy of a cruelly devastated country.
It was my privilege, in fulfillment of my national duties during the Second World War. to spend sever.il years in the United States, doing what I could to tell America the truth about my people. During this time I came to learn more fully the magnitude of this nation, and my feelings of friendship toward the American people took firm root. This experience Is vividly In my mind and heart as I arrive in Washing ton to assume my duties as Amhas sador. The Presidium, in retaining me at the same time as a member of the Cabinet, did so as a way of underlining the Importance of the task assigned to me—the mission Mr. President, which • with your kind assistance I hope to be able to fulfill—atrengtheniug the friend ship and understanding between the United Htates of America and the Federal People's Republic of Jugo slavia.

We have also read in bro. Vrhm nik's column ill past weeks idea and plans for a cultural affair to huld sometime in the future, such an affair were planned for lime when two full days were avail able, why could we not have morning for musical events, another for literary events and two after mams for athletic events? If sue an affair were planned this way,' lot of people could take in the whole affair. It seem« that having a field day at one time, and a cultural af fair at another Is just added en penae,
Of course such an affair would call for a lot of planning, and may mean that In some localities dlstru-oi regional elimination contest •houid In* held Anyway It is sonu thing to think about.
For lodges like our own that wuA always rr erge with some other lodge to «|eet a convention delegate teems that some better plan for determining results should be In or der.

Five people in a buggy were slowly moving along a dusty, red-clay oad In a backwood section of Georgia. Four of the riders were black, two women; the driver and owner of the buggy was white.
He hired the Negroes and wu ( driving (hem to his farm to work for him at Georgia Swages. Farm I hands were hard to get these days as higher wages were being paid in the tpwns and cities. He was fortunate to get the were married, one was a veteran, and the other had to bail" out of jail. It seemed that this foolish black had a fight with white man whom he severely stabbed with a knife. Naturally, this black would make a good farm hand, as he was already indebted to him for his kindness.
The buggy rolled slowly on, and the horse was oblivious to-the occassional "gidup" frtmi the driver. In due course of time their destination would be reached, and a few hours difference dldnt matter.
But as they were rounding a curve, a group of men dashed out of the woods and thickets. In a moment the buggy was halted and iurrounded hv armed men. They were about 20 In numbor, and were on horseback.
A tall, dark, sun-tanned man stepped forward, and demanded the Negroes. Forcibly they ejected the dunned blacks out of the buggy, and marched them to the woods. The Negroes, frightened, began to plead for their Uvea, Their pleas were answered by u hot. Muie shots rang out, und the helpless Negroes' mouns und whimpers were silenced, All In ull. 60 •hots were fired into their bodies.
This cold-blooded murder of four hapless Negroes Is the latest ghastly bint on decency and hUmunity in America.
We are shocked to think how supposedly civilized men csn por-petrste auch crimes. What makes them behave Ihustly? Surely, they don't think of themselves as heroes —-or do they in their perverted thinking?

Where is the American sense of fair-play, of decency, of democracy, of Justice under the law?
Where Is the Christianity of meicy, of kindness—iif "thou shall not kill"?
Where Is the civilized man who has learned that. biologically there are no Inferior or superior races— ihat we are all one?
Yet, we talk of civilization, of education and culture, and of One World, and yet-There were Twenty against four Armed against unarmed, Rifles against bare-bieasta, Witite Htfainat black, Twenty to four, two of them women.

The Waukegan iodgea without question will have the beat representation in all tbeae sport rventa, aince all three local lodges are known to be strongly fortified with golfers and balina enthusiasts and, furthermore, for the reason that the tournament« are to be staged in that locality.
Wa expect to see quite S few en tries from the Chicago lodges.

That also goes for our Indianapolis SNPJ membership, among whom are many golfers and balina players. How about it Hooaier Pals, France Prešeren and Danica? Come on up and join the crowd! Even if you don't partici pate in the spoU events, the social contacts you will make and the dance alone will be well worth the trip. Let'f make this midwest get-together a real SNPJ reunion, some thing we can all talk about for days to come and look forward to next

West Penna SNPJ Golf Tournament Rules and Banquet Program
UNIVERSAL, PA.—My brother. Mike, has already broken the ground in a publicity way with his excellent article last week announcing the poat-war revival of our Western Penna SNPJ Golf Tournament. What I will try to cover in this write-up la a more detailed program of golf rule« and banquet preparations. Eight committeemen, representing over 200 members of seven lodges of the federation, met at Pittsburgh on July 26 and laid out the program.
The tournament ia open to all SNPJ members, men and women, irrespective of date of entry, and will be held at Sylvan Heights Golf Club on Sunday, Sept. 8, starting at 10 a. m. We cannot emphasize too forcefully this storting time. Many of us will travel 50 or 60 miles, and the plan is to hove the bonquet begin as near to 5 o'clock as possible. The driving contest is scheduled after the rounds of golf but prior to the banquet.
It is unnecessary to make a lavish build-up for Sylvan Height« be cause most of us have played the course, and know it to be one of the finest public courses in the matter of scenic beauty and good golf play. And equally as much can be said for their fine clubhouse. Probably the best tribute we can pay it is to say that the committee would have selected a course nearer to home, if as good a place could be found. .
We are already assured of 80 would-be Bobby Joneses particlpat ing In this event with the distribu
Many Die Needlessly
Cancer kil's more than 170,000 Americans every year but many of these die needteealy because cancer Is curable more often than any other highly fatal disease
There are many thousands living today who have been cured of cancer. It is estimated that at least 40,000 are cured of cancer in thi« country annually. These are people who have shown no recurrence of the diaease for five year«. The latest accurate Hgur« of five yean cures is for 1943 when 39.315 were pronouced entirely cured. .
The chance of curing canct£/fn its early stage« is extremely high. Up to 95 per cent of all skin and lip cancer« are curable if diagnosed in time. Breast cancer and cancer of the uterus, the most prevalent forms among women, have a 75 per cent chance of cure after early diagnosis. Moderately advanced cancer has only 15 to 40 per cent chance of cure. Advanced cancer is almost alway« fatal.
TO AVOID CANCER, YOU MUST BE ALERT!
Don't take chances with a sore that will not heal. See your doctor immediately if you notice bleeding from any of the natural body openings. Watch for any progressive change in the color or size of a mole, wart or birthmark. Persistent indigestion or a noticeable change in your normal bowel habits call for a check-up by your doctor. Persistent hoarseness of an unexplained cough should be looked into.
None of these things might mean cancer, but why take chance«? TO BE SURE, SEE YOUR DOCTOR!

Legislators casting about for new sources of tax revenue during the war seem, strangely enough, to have overlooked a promising proposal once offered to England and the world by Jonathan Swift.
"I propose." said the satirical Swift, "that a tax be levied on female beauty."
"But could we make the women ray enough to make it worth while?" a listener inquired.
"Ah, ye«,," replied the wily Dean. ' Let every woman be permitted to ossess her own charms—then she'll La generous enough."

For one thing, there is to be a golf tournament Sept. 8 and anyone wishing to participate in the tournament, get in touch with Prexy Elmer Eiffler before Aug. 17. A bus is to be chartered and the golf players will travel by bus. Sorry, but we doubt very much that spectators will be taken on the bus.
Another important issue to be discussed is our welcome homet party, Sun., Aug. 25. This is to be a noted date for great things are planned. Of course, there is a lot of cooperation needed to conduct this affair and the committee will appreciate any assistance you members can give.
Mrs. Liz C r i d e r entertained friends from Cleveland, namely, Eleanor Jansik and Apn Grosel. Both girls enjoyed themselves very much and we look forward to another visit.
The juveniles are again making plans for another dance. Speaking of dancing, the Veronians are having one Sat., Aug. 10, beginning at 10 p. m. Music by the ever-:popular Frank Porovne's Musical Stylists. Frank is well known throughout the many lodges, and you will remember dancing to his music at South Park on SNPJ Day, so for an evening of good listening or dancing be with the Veronians Saturday.
Then the dance sponsored by the juveniles will be Sat., Aug. 2d, music by the Musical Stylist«, dancing from 10-2. Each juvenile is working hard to make this affair a success. Some are buay making poster«, while other« are to help decorate the club. We know they will do as good a job as they did for their Valentine dance.
Sun.. July 28, we again played hosts, this time our guests were Southvicw. In the afternoon soft-ball was played, the Verona won the game with a score of 18-2. The winning pitcher being "Druggie" Mehelic. After the game a dinner was aerved and we were pleaaed to have about 40 or ao viaitorc. Afterwards many of our guest« joined us in playing volley ball, bowling, horseahoe pitching and the children took advantage of the swings, see saw. etc. The dance floor was also nicely filled for the Muaical Stylists nlayed for dancing polkas, fox trots, etc. One of the gueats accidently fell into the river and caused some commotion, but nothing aeriou«. At about 9 the day came to an end and we were aorrv to see the buses leave, but we look forward to seeing Southview back again and the sports committee want to thank all thoae who helped conduct the affair,
More softball news. We loot a game to Ralph'« Tires. 2-1.

Therefore, any member wishing to bowl this season get in touch with either Elmer or myself and give us your name, for alleys have to l>e reserved and we have to have an idea a.v to how many plan to bowl.
