Moč monopolov stalno narašča v Ameriki
Prolitrustni zakoni se ne izvajajo. Velike banke kontrolirajo kredite in investicije
Washington. D. C.—<FP>—Moč monopolov stalno narašča v Ameriki in davi ekonomijo dežele. Koncentracija ekonomske močkje zavzela velik obseg kljub poskusom razbijanja trustov.
Dvesto največjih korporacij je v desetih letih povečalo kontrolo na 00 odstotkov. Protitrustni zakoni in regulacije niso preprečile monopolom povečanja kontrole nad ekonomijo Izognili so se zakonom in regulacijam.
Danes federalna sodišča ne . ovirajo konsolidacije korporacij ) in drugih metod za raztegnitev monopolističnih kontrol. Kongres pod pritiskom monopolističnih grup je izvzel železniške kompanije od regulacij. S tem je ustvaril precedent za druge kompanije.
Izgledi so za večjo koncentracijo ekonomske moči v rokah male grupe monopolistov. Ti bodo lahko določali cene in produkcijo in potiskali deželo v depresijo z inflacijo, da ljudje ne bodo mogli kupovati blaga. Pred desetimi leti je Franklin D. Roosevelt videl nevarnost monopolov. Takrat je dejal:
"Svoboda v demokraciji ni varna, ako ljudstvo tolerira dviganje moči monopolov. Ti lahko postanejo močnejši kot država. V bistvu je to fašizem "
V zadnjih letih je koncentracija elpioomake sile dosegla re-koiti v zgodovini dežele Ako ne bodo monopoli zajezeni, bodo ustanovili privatno nadvlado in izvajali politično moč v istem obsegu kot sedaj izvajajo ekonomsko oblast. Za ustavitev porasti monopo-

Lovettu.
Nota pravi, da je Samarina, njegovo družino in Oksano Ko-senkino. drugo učiteljico v New Yorku, ugrabila Tolstojeva ustanova. protiboljševiška ruska grupa. Panjuškin je označil to grupo za zločinsko organizacijo. Njen obstoj v Ameriki je direktno kršenje amerlško-ruskih obligacij, ki so bile prevzete, ko je Amerik« priznala Sovjetsko unijo 1 1933
Oksana Stepanovna je bila odpeljana iz poslopja Tolstojeve ustanove v bližini New Yoika v ruski konzulat. Uradniki so izjavili, da je še v konzulatu. Ustanova trdi. da je bila učiteljica odvedena v konzulat proti njeni volji.
Samarin je bil rojen v Rusiji in je učitelj matematike Zadnjo soboto je odšel v urad federalnega detektivskega biroja v New Yorku Ruski poslanik ni pojasnil zveze mod Samarl-nom in Tolstojevo ustanovo Uradnik državnega depart men" U je dejal, da je bil Panjuškin informiran, da so konfliktne izjave povzročile konfuzijo in da bodo ameriške oblasti pretakale redevo in skušale ugotoviti vsa
dejstva.
lov je potrebno javno lastništvo vodilnih industrij in velikih bank. Slednje kontrolirajo kredite in investicije. Javno lastništvo bank bi bilo prvi korak akcije za zdrobite v monopolov. Delavske unije in organizacije farmarjev bi morale pritiskati na kongres in vlado za razglasitev javnega lastništva bank in glavnih industrij.
Francoski rudarji oklicali stavko
Program finančnega ministra izzval opozicijo
Pariz. 10. avg,—Cez tisoč rudarjev v severni Franciji je za-stavkalo v znak protesta proti programu finančnega ministra Paula Reynauda, Znamenja so, da se bo stavka razširila na vse premogovno polje.
Opozicija proti programu je tudi v narodni skupščini. Vodijo jo komunisti in neodvisni republikanci. Reynaud zahteva izjemno oblast za izvedbo programa brez odobritve skupščine.
Komunist Marcel Servin je dejal, da hoče Reynaud posnemati metodp višiške vlade, ki je bil* 'ha krmilu, ko je bila F r a* c i jo pod nemško okupacijo. Ministra je obdolžit, da hoče doseči svoj cilj s fašistično politiko.
Jacques Duclos, vodja komunistične stranke, je tudi oplazil Reynauda v svojem govoru. "Ako bo finančni minister dobil oblast, katero zahteva, bo francoska armada postala hrana za topove zapadnih držav," je dejal. "Francija je že zabredla v kaos, kar je posledica Marshal-lovega načrta. Ako bo naša ekonomija povezana z ameriško ekonomijo, bo Francija izgubila tržišča v državah vzhodne Evrope."
Reynaud je odgovoril kritikom. Priznal je, da Marshallov načrt ni rezultiral v okrevanju francoske ekonomije, vztrajal je pa pri zahtevi, da mora dobiti vso oblast za reorganiziranje c-konomskega ustroja.

Dne 27. junija se je vršila proslava pennsylvanskega dne SNPJ. S to priredbo smo bolje uspeli kot smo pričakovali. Se ve. bilo pa je z njo veliko dela in skrbi. Mnogi člani so pridno delali, kateri pa niso, so pa toliko bolj trpeli njih žepi. Torej zaslužijo vsi lepo zahvalo!
Na proslavi je nastopil kot govornik F. A. Vider, gl. tajnik SNPJ. Naj prvo je imel jako zanimiv govor na slovenskem radijskem programu. Se moj mož Martin je menil, da zasluži pohvalo. Br. Vider je govoril tudi v parku zelo pomembno. Takih govornikov potrebujemo mod nami. Upamo, da nas bo br. Vider ob priliki zopet obiskal. Seveda, kdor pa se ni strinjal z njim, pa je to njegova zadeva. Mi, ki smo dosti izkušeni v delavskem gibanju, se zavedamo, da je treba delati pridno in hitro, če hočemo ohraniti vsaj te pravice, ki jih še danes imamo v Zedinjenih državah.
Na žaloet dandanes najdemo ljudi, ki izpodjedajo korenine delavski stranki. Posebno pa nasprotujejo tretji stranki razni republikanski in demokratski politikaši, ki sede pri polnih koritih, oa se bojijo, da bi jih izgubili, če zmaga Henry Wallace m ostali kandidati progresivne stranke. < Nasproti progresivni stranki so mlačne tudi tiste družine, k) niso imele v zadnji vojni nikogar na bojnem polju, do-čim ao mnoge družine izgubila svoje drage ali pa so prišli do-dov, a še danes trpijo za posledicami grozne vojne. , V nedeljo, Iti. iiüye.MM tfi

som, ako že ne s komentarjem, bomo ustregli tudi br. Mathu Te-kavču Iz Eucltda, O., ki od nas zahteva, da "popravimo krivico, ki smo Jo storili škofu Rožmanu . . Kdo bo popravil krivic», katero so belogardistlčnl klerofašlstl pod.vodstvom škofa Rožma^ na napravili slovenskemu narodu v starem kruju, na Hrvatskem" ,|u je moja želja, da oni skupno pu enako ali še večjo krivico pod vodstvom nadškofa Stepinca, za | delujejo s< starejšo generacijo, to se pristaši A.

Dne 25. julija pa se je vršila federucijska seja v Libraryju. Zastopniki in uradniki federacije se sestanemo vsake tri mesece in se pogovorimo o delovanju in obstoju slovensko poslu-jočjh društev SNPJ. Udeležba je bila zelo lepa, še posebno pa me je razveselilo, ko je bilo navzočih tudi mnogo naprednih članic SNPJ, ki so zastopale svoja društvu. Le tako naprej, vrle žene, in dosegli bomo naš nameni
Se nckuj nuj omenim. Vsakdo, ki pride v Library, »e goto vo začudi ij» ae vpraša, kako so tamkajšnji rojaki prišli do tako lepe narodne stavbe, katera je v ponos vsem Librarčanom. Stavbo so seveda zgradili v duhu složnosti in s pridnostjo, ki )e splošna vrlina naših naseljencev. V Librarvju imajo tudi izvrstne kuhariee, ki ao obložile m<ze z raznimi dobrotami In nas orav po domače postregle. Najlepša hvala, ob priliki se pa zopet vidimo.
Dne I. avgusta pa smo praznovali šesti "Ameriško slovenski dan" v West View-pafku. Udeležba je bila velika. V parku je bil podan tudi precej obširen pngram. kot glavni govornik pa je nastopil br Milan Medvedek, Najprvo je govoril v angleščini na slovenskem radij *kem programu, v parku pa v
O 40-LETNIC I DRUŠTVA 85
Republic. Pa.—Naj mi bo dovoljeno, da poročam par vrstic o naši proslavi 40-letnice društva 85 SNPJ, ki »mo jo imeli 24. in 25. julija. Priredba je ie precej dobro izpadla. V soboto je bila udeleiba sicer bolj majhna, v nedeljo pa prilično velika. Videl sem rojake z vseh strani. Hvala vam vsem skupaj, ob priliki pa vam bomo vrnili. S tem se ie naša blagajna nekoliko o-krepčala; tega je bila tudi potrebna, ker je bila v slabem položaju. Zato smo na seji tudi zaključili, da mora vsak član in članica, pa nfj živi blizu ali daleč, plačati eno vstopnico kot svoj prispevek društvu. Mislim, da je#to dobro, ker 75c si lahko vsakdo prltrga. In to tudi gre za skupno korist.
Ni dolgo, ko smo imeli pogreb in precej stroškov. S tem v zvezi naj omenim, da ima naše društvo 80 člsnov in članic, toda nismo mogli dobiti pogrebnikov. Na pomoč sd nam prišli bratje Hrvati. To je žalostno za vse nsše članstvo in kaj takega ue pri našem društvu ne sme več zgoditi. S tako brezbrižnostjo škodimo sebi in društvu. Bratje in sestre, prihajajte bolj redno in v večjem Številu na seje in bo šlo vae lepše naprej.
Se enkret lepa hvala vsem, ki ste se udeleltli naše proslave. Prav tako tudi lepa hvala vsem, ki ste delali na priredbi. Vse nam je šlo gladko od rok. Imeli smo tudi izvrstnega govornika Franka GradlSka iz Herminieja. Tudi njemu hvšla.

Narodni dan SNPJ se bliža!
Weat Allla. Wla. — Tridnevna proslava, k/tero bo članstvo SNPJ slavilo 4., 5. in 6. septembra v Mihvuukeeju, ne bo kakšen piknik, na katerega pridemo skupaj, se malo pozabavamo, nato pa nanj pozabimo, pač pa bo ta proslava narodni dan SNPJ, kateri se vrši vsako leto enkrat sdaj v eni zdaj v drugi slovenski nwelbint. Starejši člani po večini pomen tega dneva SNPJ razumemo, a mladina pa ne v toliki meri.
S dnevom SNPJ počastimo ustanovitelje SNPJ, naše pio nirje, dalje vse tiate brate ln sestre, ki so žrtvovali veliko svojega truda ln moč za procvit SNPJ, kakor tudi v počast onim, ki danes veliko delujejo za SNPJ ln njen napredek.
Z dnevom SNPJ skušamo zbuditi tudi čim večje zanimanje za jed nošo med starejšim članstvom in naio mladino, za-eno pa na ta način Javno oglašujemo to naio dično organlza-

Na teh dnevih SNPJ imamo tudi priložnost, da se seznanimo in ponovno srečamo tudi Člane a katerimi smo se že nekdsj poznali, ali uaoda nas je ločila ln se nismo videli ie mnogo let zopet s drugimi pa se nismo še nikdar osebno srečali, poznamo pa se iz dopisov v Prosveti ln ko se srečamo, se počutimo, kot da bi bili še stari znanci. Jaz sem že nekajkrat nepričakovano srečal kakšnega Prosvetine-ga dopisnika, ki ga osebno nlaem poznal, ugajajo pa mi je njegovo piaanje v Prosveti, torej aem ga po duhu poznal že dolgo časa pred srečanjem ln oba ava bila takoj v pogovoru kot kakšna stara znanca. Upam da bom zopet srečal katerega Iz med naiih dopisnikov.
Mene bi tudi selb veselilo, ako bi prišel na narodni dan SNPJ stari naaeljenec John Vertin in ae nam dal spoznati, čitatelj Prosvete ie sedaj nismo pozabili njegove pretresljive avto-biografije Cenjeni stari n Ijenec. pridi na naio slavnoat ln zagotovim te. da te bomo val lepo sprejeli, če pridei na to naio proalavo, boi videl mnogo naiih rojakov Is vseh krajev ln mest.

da je
godba za plesalce, ter vstopnina prosta za vse.
Če bo pa kaj luitno in zabavno, je odvisno od nas vseh, ki bomo navzoči. Ako vzamem za menilo pretekle priredbe in piknike Prešerna, potem sem gotov, da bo razpoloženje kakor vselej :iivahno in zabavno, saj to vedo oni, ki so stalni zborovi poget-niki.
Poročati želim tudi, da se je Prešernov tajnik Jack Marinich st.f ki je obenem predsednik društva Rožnik SNPJ, morsl podvreči operaciji in se nahaja v Presbyterian-bolniinici. Zbor1 mu želi hitro okrevanje in vrnitev k Prešernu. Isto tako se je moral podvreči operaciji zborov podporni član (in härtender) Josef Trdin, član društva Pioneer, ki je v St Anthony-bolnišnici. Tudi njemu želimo hitro okrevanje in vrnitev med nas. Upam, da ni še kateri drugi iz Prešernove družine bolan, saj ob tem pisanju ne vem o tem, razen kar je bi|o zadnjič poročeno.
Da pa ne pozabimo, še enkrat zakličem: Vsi na Prešernov piknik prihodnjo nedeljo. Na svi denje!— A. Ü.
VSESLOVANSKI PIKNIK V JOHN8TOWNU
Johnstown. Pa.—Tu se bo vršil piknik vseh Slovanov v nedeljo ves dan, 22- avgusta, v Highland-parku v Moxhamu, po domače "Hogback". Začetek takoj po 12. uri.
Za ples bo igral Louis Hribar in njegov orkester. Odbor je pridno na delu in bo poskrbel, da bo vsega dovolj. Kakor sem slikala, bo na programu zaigrala nekaj komadov tudi naša godba iz Moxhama, in sicer pod vodstvom Josepha Rogla, kateri je bil že veČ let poprej učitelj ta godbe.
Ob -tej priliki boste lahko slišali tudi dobrega govornika Georgea Wucinicha, tajnika Ameri^ko-slovans^ega kongresa v'zapadni Penni.' : ,
letos je volilno leto in moral bi se zbuditi sleherni delavec in oddati svoj glas za kandidate progresivne stranke s H. Wal-lacem in Taylorjem na čelu. Oba sta za delavski razred in trajen svetovni mir. Torej sedaj je treba iti na delo, da bodo zmagal i'kandidat je progresivne stranke in nadaljevali Roose-veltovo politiko mednarodnega sodelovanja in blagostanja.
Pokažimo našo slovansko solidarnost s tem, da se udeležimo v velikem številu vseslovanske-ga piknika v nedeljo, 22. avgusta. Na gotovo svidenje!

Chicago. I1L—Članstvo društva 1 SNPJ opozarjam na prihodnjo sejo, ki se bo vršila v petek, 13. avgusta, začetek ob osmih zvečer v običajnem prostoru, ases-ment pa bom pričel pobirati ze ob sedmih.
Na dnevnem redu bomo imeli več važnih zadev, med njimi 45-letnico našega društva, ki se bo vršila dne 10. oktobra s pestrim programom. Na tem mestu opozarjam, da mora vsak član in članica odraslega oddelka plača-ti v mesecu oktobru $1 izrednega asesmenta, v zameno pa dobi vstopnico za proalavo 46-letnice društva Slavije. Na tem mestu naj omenim, da je Mike Zorko daroval $1 v društveno blagajno, ker se ni mogel udeležiti zadnje društvene priredbe; gotovo vsoto pa je daroval že poprej.

Pridite zgodaj na izletniške prostore in ostanite do pozne ure, ker bo za vse dovolj zabave.

Braddock. Pa.—Čeprav se ne sliši mnogo iz naše naselbine in okolice, smo Slovenci tudi tukoj aktivni. Zavedamo sc potrebe Sansa in vemo. da čim več finančne podpore ima Sans, toliko več uspeha bo imel, in to posebno v sedanjem kritičnem času, v letu volitev, da bi bil iz voljen Henry Wallace za predsednika Združenih držav.
S tem vidikom bo podružnica Sansa št. 104 priredila piknik v nedeljo, 15. avgusta na Church Hillu — na pikniških prostorih. Odbor bo skrbel, da bo vsega dovolj. Imeli bomo tudi dobro godbo ze plesalce. Ves dobiček bo šel v korist Sansa.

Ko sem prišel tja, sem zagledal mojega nekdanjega "ilafka-merata" Joeva Zupančiča is Strabana, Pa. Z veseljem sva si podala roke, ker se nisva videla $e več let, nato pa ma vpra-«, če vem, kje je Martin Bon-čina. Seveda vem. On pravi, da li ga rad videl. Sla sva na mo-o karo, zdrvela na Maynard in ga dobila doma. Bilo je veselo svidenje. Hitro se malo pogovorimo, potem pa nazaj v Bridgeport na piknik.
Ko pridemo nazaj, zagledam našega starega borca Načeta Žlembergerja. On je bil 3. avgusta star 80 let in mi je rekel, da se dobro počuti. Morda si po-šče še boljšo polovico? Čestitke, Nace in ielim ti ie drugih 80

SLOVENSKEM DNEVU" i V ZAPADNI PEN NI
Chicago, 111.—Prvi "Ameriško-slovenaki dan" se je vršil leta 1938, to je bilo usodnega leta, ko je Mla sklenjena umazana mo-nakovska kupčija, ki je odprla Hitlerju pot za napad na slovanske narode. Tedaj se je pričela strahotna Golgota za Slovane, 1 katero pa je bilo mogoče pretrpeti le z združeno močjo, s skupnim naporom vseh napadenih slovanskih narodov.
Da je moč v skupnosti, so se tedaj zavedali tudi mnogi vodilni člani pri pevskemu zboru Prešernu v Pittsburghu in zamislili so si "Ameriško-slovenski dan", s katerim so hoteli pokazati ameriški javnosti, da so Slovenci v zapadni Penni proti nacifašistič-nim silam, ki so stregle po življenju slovanskega življa. Ker pa je bilo v ozadju tega "Ameri-ško-slovenskega dneva" nekaj levičarjev, ao tedaj socialni demokrati, v prvi vrsti bivši uradnik Prosvete Molek, silno napadali prvi "Ameriško-slovenski dan".
Danes je slika drugačna. Pri tem dnevu sodelujejo vsi zavedni Slovenci v zap. Penni, glavni steber pa so društva SNPJ, kot so povsiod, kjer gre za napredno stvar
Odborniki "Ameriško-sloven-skega dneva" so naši stari znanci, skromni društveniki, ki delajo veliko tudi pri drugih naprednih organizacijah in ne samo pri tej. Ti so: Paul Klun, predsednik, Mary S. Prasnikar, prva podpredsednica, Tony Jordan, drugi podpredsenik. Anton Čipčič, tretji podpredsednik, Anton Rednak, tajnik, Louis Ka rish, blagajnik, George Witko-vlch, zapisnikar. Poleg teh ¿e še več drugih odbornikov in od-bornlc v raznih komitejih.
Ta organizacija pa si je spletla lavorike s slovenskim radijskim programom, ki ga prenaša eno uro vsako nedeljo s postaje WLOA v Braddocku. Voditelj in duša tega programa je Tone Rednak, mlad Slovenec, ki je že mnetP iet dobro poznan v zapad-ni Pennsylvaniji.% Tone je prišel kot mladenič iz Ljubljane in tako obvlada oba jezika ter vživa veliko zaupanje med ondotnlmi rojaki. Naj še pristavim, da ni Tony ne politikaš in ne "boljše-vik", ampak zaveden delavec in Slovenec in ima rad vsakega naprednega Slovenca, zato pa žanje uspehe.
Toda dovolj za uvod! Sesti "Ameriško-slovenski dan" se Je vršil 1. avgusta v West View-parku, ki leži blizu Pittsburgha. Odbor je povabil za govornika tudi mene, in sicer najprvo na slovenskem radijskem programu, nato pa v parku na "Ameri-ško-slovenskem dnevu" Povabilu sem se z veseljem odzval, saj nisem bil v zapadni Penn-sylvaniji, kjer poznam mnogo naših društvenileov, odkar sem se preselil v našo veliko vas Chicago.
Chicago je veliko mesto, največje železniško križišč« na svetu, zaeno pa natrpano z raznimi industrijami, toda ni nič podobno Pittsburghu, kateri je veliko bolj zakajen, zaeno pa veliko, večji industrijski kolos, da te kar strese ob pogledu nanj, kakor tudi na okolico. V tem bo gatem, ogromnem, zakajenem kolosu si služi vsakdanji kruh mnogo naših rojakov, kateri so pustili milijone žuljev v jeklar-ski in premogovni industriji. Koliko naših življenj je že padlo v teh dveh industrijah!
Zopet sem zašel od "A meri -ško-slovenskeg« dneva!" Po ra-dio-programu me je Tone Rednak zapeljal na svoj dom v N Bruddock, kjer je njegova žen« izkazala tisto slovansko gostoljubnost, ki je Uko razširjena med ameriškimi Slovenci.
Takoj po kosilu pa smo se odpeljali v West View-psrk v Red-nakovem Fordu iz leta 1935. katerega Tone preganja po penn-sylvanskih hribih kakor jaz svojega istega modela po čtkaških ravninah.
V West View-parku je bilo že mnogo naftih rojakov in rojakinj, k« smo dospeli tja. Ta park je zabavališče za splošno javnost, zato je težko ugotoviti, koliko naših je bilo na VI "Ameriško - slovenskem dnevu", s ugibanje je bilo od 3.090 do 5,000 oeeb Vsekakor pa je bil
Clavoland.—Članstvo društva Cleveland 126 SNPJ ja vabljeno na prihodnjo sejo, ki bo 15. avgusta v navadnih prostorih, pri-četek ob desetih zjutraj. BHia se društveni piknik in članstvo naj ae zaveda, da je dovolj deli za pridne roke. Naj o tam razmišlja vsak član in se odloči, da pomaga piknUkemu odboru, ki je bil izvoljen na julijski oeji. Dela bo dovolj za vse.
Zato apeliram na članstvo, da prida v velikem številu na prihodnjo s^jo in prevzame to o|ti ono delp. NI potrebno, da 1»i drug drugega silili, marveč naj se vsakdo odzove, ki Je pripravljen ali pripravljenu pomagati. Koristi se delijo na vse članstvo, pri tem smo vsi enakopravni: oni, ki vodno delamo, kakor tudi oni, ki ne delajo. Enkrat bi rad videl, da se vsakdo prosto-volno priglasi, kdor ja pripravljen delati, Enako tudi članice, ki tvorite skoraj eno tretjino društva. Se posebno apeliram na vas, ker bo na pikniku dooti dela tudi za vaš. Na svidenje na seji IH pikniku.

H konvenciji Ameriškega slovanskega kongresa
Na angleški strani Prosvete jc bil pred kratkim priobcen oklic četrte konvencije Ameriškega slovanskega kongresa, ki se bo Vršila od 24. do 26. septembra t. I. v Stevensovem hotelu v Chlcagu, HI Eksekutiva v svojem oklicu apelira na vsa kulturna, podporna in politična dr uit va in klube teh sploh na vse organizacije, ki se stri-njajo s smernicami omenjenega kongresa ter odobravajo njegovo delo, da naj izvolijo svoje delegate in bodo zastopane na tej konvenciji.
Apel eksekutive se nanata seveda tudi na nas, to je na jednoto in nje krajevne postojanke ali diuštva, kajti naša zadnja konvencija je odobrila delo Ameri&kega slovanskega kongresa in se izrekla, da ga podpiramo. Zalo se nam zdi potrebno, da na tem mestu spregovorimo nekoliko podrobneje o postanku in-namenu ter delu te organizacije.
Potreba po nekakšni medsebojni vezi in skupnem delovanju ljudi slovanskega porekla v tej deželi je bila občutna že davno, menda vse od tedaj, kar so začeli Slovani prihajati v to deželo v večjem številu. Kajti protislovenska propaganda, ki so jo širili Nemci in Angleži po Evropi že davno prej in ki je tam povzročila poleg velikih narodnostnih sovražnosti Slovanom veliko ikode, se je zanesla čez čas tudi v Ameriko in smo radi tega priseljenci slovanskega fxirekla tudi veliko trpeli. Mnogo bi se dalo o tem napisati, toda tukaj ni mesto za to.
Poizkus, da se ustanovi nekaj, kar bi tvorilo med ameriškimi Slovani potrebno narodno in kulturno ter gospodarsko-(!>olitiČno tez, je bil narejen večkrat, toda do potrebnega sporazuma in kaj« pozitivnega ni prišlo, Šele ko se je ra/.pauel hudobni fašizem in začel po Evropi s podjarmljevartjem in uganjanjem svojih zločin-skih orgij, smo tudi ameriški Slovani spregledali in nekoliko bolj spoznali, da je ožje sodelovanje med nami res potrebno, posebno ako hočemo zajeziti val fašizma. Nekaj bolj dalekovidnih moi je stopilo na čelo temu gibaitju In tako je priilo, da je bil leta 1938 ustanovljen Ameriški slovanski kongreN
V novi organizaciji se je lasno izražala odločnost ameriških Slo-vanov, da se ustavi pohod fašizma naprej po Evropi in da se ne razširi drugam po svetu, zlasti da se mu zaprejo vrata Amerike. Po svoji ustanovitvi leta 1M8 si je Ameriški slovanski kongres prizadeval, da bi preprečil nakane fašizma, da zaneti drugo svetovno vojno, ki je bila naperjena v glavnem proti slovanskim državsm in v kateri hi bili slovanski narodi največje žrtve. Vojne —žal—nismo mogli preprečiti, toda storili smo kolikor smo mogli in opravili svojo človečansko dolžnost. A ko je kljub našim silno resnim prizadevanjem nastal vojni požar in so tudi Zedinjene države bile pritegnjene vanj, smo Amerlkanci slovanskega Dorekla zopet storili, kar je bilo največ mogoče, da bo faáizem poražen in da pride čimpiej do nafte zmage. Pridno smo delali po tovarnah in pomagali izdelovati potrebno vojno orožje, delali smo po far mah in pridelovali vse potrebno za prehrano vojakov in civilnega prebivalstva. Delali smo tako rekoč noč in dan, naši sinovi so se boiili in umirali na bojnih frontah in vojni so pomagale deloma tudi hčere S ponoaotn zremo na svoj rekord glede tega Izkazali smo se kot vemi patrioti Amerike ter pošteni in zanesljivi držav I jam in |>okojni predsednik Rooaevelt, ki nas je dobro poznal, nam je upravičeno izrekel svo.io hvaležnost in priznanje, ko je zapisal t na* te /namenite besede
VI. ki ale pomaqall qradlll te Zediniene države po tovarnah In farmah In ki ale toliko doprinesli sa obogalenie našo narodne kulture, ne potrebujete. d* vam kdo dopoveduje, kal Amerika ali n|e blagodal pomeni.

To lepo in častno primanje nam je iztekel sam predsednik Zc-
ilmjenih držav, mož ¿Itokcgu obzorja in velikega tazuma ter resnični predstavnik spMnega ameUáke^a ljudstva Sllčna prizna nja mi nam i/.rrkall tndi tliugi veliki možje in državniki, ki ao INiziiali eneiuičnost in vztrajnost ter veliko ustvarjujočo silo ljudi slovanskega |»oi«-kla kai te bilo tu rasa vojne tako posebno važno Tudi v glavnem uiadu SNI'J je nekaj (MNiobnih pismenih prt/nanj ki smti jih tekom \ojne prejeli.

«2 SEJA BRIDGEPORTSKE FEDERACIJE Windaor Heights, W. Va.—Kot
je bilo tf poppčano, se vrši seja okrožne federacije društev SNPJ v vzhodnem Ohiu in West Vlrginiji na Windsor Heightsu dne 22. avgusta ob dveh popoldne v Unijski dvorani.
Ker v Short Creeku pri Windsor Heightsu delajo nov most in novo cesto, želim dati par nasvetov zastopnikom in drugim, ki pridete na to sejo. Ko se bo-ate vozili po cesti iz Wheelinga, boste zagledali napis: 'To Export" in tam krenite desno. Ako boste šli z busom, pa povejte vozniku, da želite izstopiti pri /'taksiju", ki vozi na Windsor I Heights. Toliko na znanje, da veste, kako se ravnati. Na svi-1 denje na seji federacije 22. avgusta.

Juvenil* And Adult Membership
ENGLISH SECTION
WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 11, 1948

THE PRESIDENT'S COLUMN
The present membership campaign conducted in celebration of the 35th anniversary of the Juvenile Department and the 10th anniversary of Juvenile Circles, has not materialized thus far to show the results which were anticipated. Perhaps, one of the reasons for this, according to the opinion of some of the memberi, is long and continuous csmpaigns which become monotonous and no longer attractive. However, it was hardly possible for the Supreme Board to ignore totally these two important juvenile anniversaries without conducting a campaign in celebration of the events.
It is an undisputable fact that practically the same members are usually always on their feet in every membership campaign, therefore, any criticism against them, even though the result of the first part of this campaign is not so favorable, would not be justified. In spite of the fact that many of our active members are also active in other fields for the interest and general welfare of the American people, we realize that they are also endeavoring to do thei^ share in this campaign.
Of course, all members of the Society are not equally active for the organization. There are some who are interested only in their own personal pleasure to be obtained through participation in sports, lodge affairs, etc. We, therefore, at this opportunity, appeal to each and every member to do his part in this membership campaign to help his Local Lodge achieve the quota of new members assigned to it, and even more, thus making this campaign an overwhelming successful undertaking.
It has been frequently stated, but we repeat again, that fraternal societies such as the SNPJ were not organized exclusively to provide protection to its members in case of illness, injury or death, according to ths interpretation of some of the members. It believes in brotherhood, freedom, democrscy, equality, and political and economic education to its member*. We must remember that the people are not dependent upon fraternal societies or private insurance companies, but that the latter are dependent upon the people. Since we cannot expect private insurance companies to help the nation with proper and healthy education for the Interest of its policyholders, it is our duty to Wlp them toward this goal. The welfare of the nation also mesns prosperity and happiness for our members. It should be remembered that economic security is not assured to anyone by merely belonging to a life insurance company. Such security depends upon the election of honest and competent government officials by intelligent citizens.
There Is still time to cstch up with what wa missed In tha first part of the prossnt campaign, so do not paas up the opportunity!

Notice to Members Of SNPJ Lodge 240
BENTLEYVILLE.' Pa. — T o all members of Lodge 240 who were not present at the last meeting. I wish to inform you that we have changed the place of meetings. It will now be held in the Italian Independent Club on Main st.. same time and day.
' Members, it's again time for special lodge assessment for the radio
ftrogram, which you all, no doubt, isten to and enjoy the program.
Bro. Francis J. Skerbetz who just became an adult member, is now serving in U.S. Air Force.
Congratulations to Sister Per-chcnsky and her new baby girl. I hope she'll soon become a juvenile member.
Members, please be prompt in paying your dues on time as it is for your own benefit.
FRANCES SKERBETZ. Secy
A complete report of the results and standings of the first half contest of the Juvenile Anniversary Campaign will appear in next week's issue of the Official Organ. Announcement will then be made of the winners^ of the special awards in each of the four districts into which the csmpalgn haj been divided. A list of all lodges, who succeeded in attaining their assigned quotas in the first tour months, will also be published.
While wa are waiting for the above report, let us not forget that the last half of the Juvenile Anniversary Campaign Is now under way, less than four months remaining, offering every member of the Society oppor-tunitics to add to previous gains or redeem previous failures by building up the membership of his lodge and sharing In the very liberal rewards which will be distributed after the close of the campaign.
The fact thai campaign participants are now contesting for new special district prizes in the second half drive, as well as grand prizes far the two divisions of the csmpaign combined, shoud stir up a great deal of. new interest and competition among both the lodges and individual, members. Yes. this can yet be our most successful campaign if more of our active lodges make a concerted effort to increase their membership and attain their respective quotas. Without a doubt, this Is one of the, best wsys you and your lodge have of honoring the 35th Anniversary of the estsblishment of the Juvenile Depsrtment snd the 10th Anniversary of the Juvenile Circles which the SNPJ Is observing this year.

CHICAGO —A crowd estimated well over 3,000 took in the 1948 Pioneer Picnic last Saturday at Pll-sen Park. Frank Yankovic and his orchestrs was the attraction, and the boys produced the kind of music for which they are famous. It was probably the biggest crowd ever to attend any of our Pioneer picnics. Many came from out of town, to hear the boys. La Salle. Joliet. Aurora. Waukesan. Milwaukee, and Kenoshs were represented Even from Kan-sas City people were there It wss grand to see so many of them and gave the people a thrill and an Inspiration. Naturally, our community was well represented, too • • •
With the exception of the handicap of beer glasses—due to the manager's reluctance to give us more than MS—every department functioned well We sold out in the kitchen. The food was as good as we said it would be Our concessions sttracted many They gave recreation snd an opportunity to uee skill The children received refreshments snd novelties Yes. sir. we even had s clown.

Fourth Eastern SNPJ Golf Tourney Aug. 22
UNIVERSAL, Pa. — Our much-talked about Golf tournament has receded from becoming a kicked-around football. That mention is made here, that the big day wt have patieatly waited tor has been arranged for Sunday. Aug. 22. at Sylvan Heights Public Oolf Course, near New Castle.
. Of the many golf courses that were contacted for our reservations lor our tourney, the answer was always no; this is more or less due to the fact of greater play in the game by the people of surround* ing vicinities of that golf course. In view of the fact that we do not have a golf course with reservations for our tourney, we have decided to select Sylvan Heights Public Course. Comparing the number of
Cirs that so frequent Sylvan hts Course and which to our observation of past two years has been en a smaller scale than other courses, we. shall converge upon this golf course for our eighteen holes of competitive golf.
The procedure of play will be no different than your usual round of golf played on a public course on any Sunday, that Is to say. you will pay your owe Green Fees st the Pro-Shop of One-Dolar ($1.00) but we shall still abide by our prearranged foursome pairings, which shall be published in the issue of the Prosveta Aug. It. You will slso pay at Elmer Eiffler's Farm the sum of SI SO towards beer snd prises
For qomplete hsrmony of run-off tourftey, the following procedure is Miggasted and will be followed by
the Athletic Committee;
We all shall gather whether by bus or sutomobile outside of Kaufman's Hotel, on Route 19, Zieleno-pie, at 9 a m. Sunday, waiting time until fJO a. m . then the automobile caravan will begin its journey to Elmer Eiffler's Farm arriving there by 9:49 a. m. There we shall have a little discussion of our plans and tourney events and oil to Sylvan Height»—with the tournament under way at 10:*S—firat foursome toeing off.
A request will be made if possible to start foursomes off at 1st toe and the 10th tot. ter a quick completion of our eighteen holes of golf and a little more time tor social activity at Elmer's Farm. Here, folks, is a swell background for a basket picnic. So you golfers, bring the women aid children out and get them Nature's finest remedy, fresh ur<~e plaoa where we ail can yai: and not bother our fellow neighbors (freedom of speech In excelsior». So. if you feel a little Tar sen in you, do let out with your peat-up emotion—for your host. Elinor Ktffler won't mind, for he is one of the same kind, pa Ac hewt Elmer promises to have several kettles, plenty of firewood for ytou who wish to roast your own corn and boil that favorite delicacy, kranj-skc klobese Come en out and do it rugged, get a little gypay in you, you'll feel better afterwards
Bring plenty to eat of your own, vour own beverages tor the chil dren and plan to spend the day and late evening at the farm Oh boyt 1 ran hardly weM to swing from tree to tree, like Tartan. But say. this is a golf tournament, isn't it?
Information has been given to me by our member of the nstionsl sth
letie board. Larry Cassol, that the board is considering payment of railroad coach fare to Milwaukee for the winning golf team, composed of four (4) men from their respective lodge and also low individual low scorer. Low aggregate will designate the winners. So, fellows, with this thought in mind, it sounds as good as winning the national epen—e'free round trip to Milwaukee, gathering place of this veer's National SNPJ Day over thi^ Labor Day weekend and participation in the National Galf tourney at Milwaukee.
Entries are slow coming in. Please cooperate and mail same to Chairman John Richter, 79 Main St., Universal, Pa., promptly, for there arc many other details to encounter.

JOHN ROCK Sr., Sec'y
Jolly Allis Lodge
WEST ALLIS. Wis.—Hi ho, folks! I thought I'd bring forth a few lines to you before Salty makes any more comments of my failure to write.
First of all. I want to bring attention to all members of our next meeting. It's Sunday. Aug. IS. at Erman's hall. Please attend. It's the last maeUng before the National SNPJ Day event. All members are required to attend. HI Important Help will be needed at this SNPJ Day affair, and all members desiring to give aid arc required to giVe their names to ihe secretary. The more members tkat sigh up. the less work will be required of them. The success of this SNPJ Day is in your hands. Give us your support.
At first we were to have this meeting at Yersin's Farm and make an outing of it. This has been changed due to the fact that much has yet to be done on his farm and therefore a delay is necessary. However, folks, our annual outing will be held at September meeting at Yersin's Farm. This will also be for the little ones with the refreshments to be handled by the members.
The Jolly Allis boys are raring to go in this forthcoming SNPJ Golf tourney. A few very good rounds have, been reported lately. Phil .Yersin and John Kostan have been doing nicely and should give the other boys some competition. Remember. the Peoria system is going to be used. Enter now.
The Yersins had visitors from Ohio the past week, namely. Mr. and Mrs, Joseph Kern. Mrs. Ann Kern is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Anton Yersin. Sorry to have missed them. Each time I made an appearance at their home they were visiting friends elsewhere. Heard that they were in excellent health and things are going along fine at their new home in Ohio. Joseph, as you probably know, was transferred by his firm from Detroit. Nice going, Joe. We may stop over on our way to Florida next spring.
Our recording Sec'y Olga Radelj has made her important vow last Saturday. For better or for worse she said "I do" to Raymond Mar-kowitz and is now Mrs. Congratulations to both of you. After the reception the couple left for their honeymoon to the east coast. They will keep house in West Allis upon their return.
I don't think Mary Yersin was kidding when she said that she still has the hay seeds in her hair. Mary comes from Minnesota. Always at their farm. As a matter of fact, so much so, that Adie has completely fallen away from all SNPJ activities. Why not let loose. Adie? SNPJ"JoU)T&Ul4 cart use ymiir tttl-enta. As a matter of fact, it's been a year since you wrote an article.
This brings me to the end of to day's script. Remember your cooperation is needed, and upon you members depends the success of all SNPJ events. So. make it your duty to perform your task in order that we may have a successful and sound organisation.
Ths's all. fo'ks, tha's all thar am, fo' thar hain't no mo'.

ton then if he told this (act to a prospective superior on a hew |ob. Remington said no and Ferguson indicated clear indignation.
Here is an idea worth pondering. Mere suspicion, apparently, ought to influence whether or not a man is hired in the government. The kernel of this idea is the exact opposite of what has been the basis of American justice. The implication is that a man is guilty until he can manage to clear himself.
The same approach has dominated the unAmerican committee proceedings. More than that, people were smeared for not having smeared for not having given further circulation to wild charges. If the committees have their Way, they would reduce us to a nation of stool pigeons competing to see who can shout loudest, "I am not a red, 1 am not a red." The way to preserve our national self respect will be lo throw the witch hunters out of Congress in November.—IF. F.)
- ON THE CAPITAL S CUFF
By RICHARD SASULY
WHAT THg WITCH HUNTERS REALLY WANT
In my opinion the witch hunters are not as stupid as they seem. At least seven Congressional com mi tees had a try at chasing Communists and ^ies during the special session. On the surfaeT it looked as
is they were out to break spy rings and throw the spies into jail. Yet they must have known they were on a cold scent. /
Pres. Truman stated a well known fact when he said that the committees ware turning up nothing new. Equally well known was the fact that the wild charges which poured out of the hearings had already been investigated exhaustively.
The FBI spent tnree years and 9900,000 on the spy story told by Elizabeth Bentlev. The federal gradn jury In New York spent more than a year investigating the same story. Again Pres. Truman was putting an official stamp on common knowledge when he said that all this probing had no led to arrests.
So the question remains—what were the Congressional sleuth, with the unAmerican activities committee in the lead, looking for?
I think the answer is that running down spies and forcing indictments was something uicidential Arrests of almost any kind would be welcomed by the unAmerican committee, but they would be regarded as a bonus.
The most immediate target was the November elections. At every point the committees, Republican led, looked for chances to drag in and smear Democratic administration leaders. Thev were still happier whenever there was a chance to bring in the name of a leader in the Progressive party.
Truman's charge of red herring was politically necessary and effective. EVen so, the Republicans expect to win votes through the spy scare.
A second motive for the committee antics was also stated by the President. He said the spy story was being used to divert attention from the things the 80th Congress should have been doing and was avoiding.
This charge is undeniable. The few committees supposedly looking into such things as inflation and civil rights were content to dip their fingers coyly into messy situa tions. Then they drew back in Congressional dignity and cried politics. The witch hunters, on the other hand, were as eager as packs of half-starved blood hounds.
All this, however, leaves out the most sinister motive of the witch hunters. It seems to me that they are after nothing less than a com plete change in the moral and legal atmosphere of the U. & I When Sen. Homer Ferguson was questioning Wlllian W. Remington, one of the government people ac Closed of espionage, a strange new legal idea appeared. *
Ferguson brought out the fact that Remington knew he was under suspicign. He asked Reming-

It's a Lie!
By MARTY SOLOW
A -"free and democratic" Germany is now in the making, according to former British Foreign Sec. Anthony Eden in a special article in the New York Times July 28.
We're not so sure we can trust Mr. Eden's instricta on democrscy —particularly after having seen a Times story back on Jul/lS which was headlined: MORE HIGH POSTS GOING TO EX-NAZIS
The story said that "the recent strict limitation of U. S. powers in the denazification program had led to an, ever increasing return of former Nazis to positions of importance throughout the U. S. zone."
We've never heard of Naiis being lovers of democracy.
• • •
Some of the high-priced columnists who attended the Progressive party convention in Philadelphia and devoted their columns to diatribes against the Wallace party got their teeth kicked in by the facts published in news columns of their own papers.
Take the case of the Alsop brothers writing in the New York Herald Tribune July 25. The daily authors of i^isop's fables wrote that Wallace had very little to do with the policy of the new party, that the platform lepresented strictly the thinking of the Communists.
Back io its news section (on the same day) where the story was reported without any fancy frills, the| Tribune wrote: "The 7,500-word I platform is basel almost entirely i on policies advocated by Henry A. Wallace."
Some columnists just made up fanciful tales about the program of the new party.
Dr. Frank Kingdon in his July 28 column said flatly the Wallace platform "in world affairs ... is thoroughly isolationist."
Apparently Kingdon didn't bother reading the text of the platform.
The platform calls for "the establishment of a United Nations Reconstruction & Development Fund to promote international recovery by providing assistance to the needy nations of Europe and Asis, without political conditions and with priorities to those people that 'suffered most from Axis uggres-sion."
And the platform is so "isolationist" that it calls for "the continuous strengthening of the UN as a foundation for eventual world government."
« • »
Ilcnry Wallace held a press conference on Julv 23 which he opened by reading two letters written by George Polk, ,thc American newspaperman recently murdered in Greece.
They couldn't "understand," newspapermen muttered after the conference, just why Wallace had read the letters. We've a pretty good idea why:
"What I'm trying to do," Polk wrote, "is to make an argument for the need of objectivity in reporting. In my opinion, objectivity is not just telling the story with all the facts readily available; instead I think the word requires going out and getting every available fact before even attempting to write a balanced story."
In view of all the distortions and outright lies in the press coverage of the Wallace convention, we think the Progressive party candidate knew what he was doing when he read newspapermen that letter.—(FP)

Hays defended the right of Communists to run for public office "Let them alone." he advised, "unless they perform some overt set . . . like trying to seise a Poet Office or organizing an arrred force The consututional right of freedom of speech la bein« violated In the indictments, he said, adding that •cases like this are never fairly tried."
Turning to other iasues. Hays urged repeal of the Taft Hartley act and said picketing for all pur poaes "political or economic" should be guaranteed He denounced the use of Natl Guard troops against strikers.
The veteran ACLU leader termed the current Washington "spy probe ' a mear campaign, a nasty busi ness snd sn sttempt to stir up hysteria." He reiterated the ACLU'« opposition to the House unAmeri-can activities committee
A iecently-completed ACLU sur-vey. Hays said, shows that Amen-can minority groups and individ uals are being censored with greater force snd frequency and that redo! durriir.metian n oecurtng at a high rate.

From ull appearunces the comment that provoked our good Sister to take issue with me was the remarks about Bishop Rosmsn of Ljubljana—in the moat recent notes All I need to ask is whether whst I have said is the truth?
Is it true that Bishop Rozman worked and was a collaborator of Hitler?
Is it true that Biahop Rozman actually worked against the people
hands are figuratively if not actually stained with the blood of innocent people, the people who fought for dtmocrac" and a republic in their homeland?
Is it true that he inspired his
own people-his own race—to
fight against themselves?
History tells us these things hap-pened. History tells us that Roc-man was involved. He has no right to be among good and honest citizens unless he faccs the law that guides the world.
I would think that even Catholics would riae In disgust and demand the purging of their ranks of criminals. Indeed, I should think that Catholics have some semblance of decency and honesty.
This is the issue, Mary Koval. Tell your people the truth about it and I am positive they will feel just as harsh about such acts of ooinmis-,' sion, as I do. Indeed if they are told the truth, they will rise in wrath rnd purge their ranks.

High Prices Force Textile Layoffs
BOSTON—<FP)—The beginning of mass layoffs and cut tailed production is hitting New England's 350.000 textile workers hard. And high prices are the cause of It.
Textile workers are now wondering whether, as In bygone years, this isn't the forerunner of the d readed dep r ess ion
Ten cotton textile mills, including four in Fall River, are already operating on a 4 day schedule and work will soon be curtailed in the 150 other New England cotton and rayon mills, according to Pres. Russell T Fisher of the Natl. Assn of Cotton Msnufactuiers.
Mill officials blame It all on the fact that retail stores, with their inventories adequate, have cut down their orders Officials of the Textile Workers Union (CIO) and vji ious AFL craft unions point out thst consumers still need as msny textile goods as before, but can't buy them because of high pi ices
Fisher said New England's pro duction slowdown follows a similar reduction In output by southern mills which began last Msy#

"Luther, come herel" howled Mr. Dilworth. "1 want you to meet Congrassmsn Dripp"
"Oh. brotherI" chortled Luther, emerging from his room. "This la a pleasure I've been looking forward to for some time."
Congressman Dripp, grinning from ear to ear, roared: "Likewise. I'm sural" picked the startled Luther up and kissed him loudly on the cheek.
Putting Luther down, Dripp pointed his right Index finger skyward and declaimed: "No greater love hath any man! No greater love hath any man than the love for littul chill dim which warms this big old heart of mine Yes siree! My, but you're a fine, manly little chap! My congratulations, Mr. Dilworth, on having such a fine, manly little son!"
"Manly, shamnly!" shrieked Luther. "What about the polltax? What about fedeial housing? What about price control? What about the draft? What about the Taft-Hartley law? What about antl-lynch laws? What about health legislation? You big vacuum, you!"
Congressman Dnpp's eyes bugged out and his jaw sagged, but he quickly recovered his composure.

A man in Arligton. across the Potomac River from Washington, shot himself last wepk. A veteran of the First World War, and father of a son who may be drafted for a Third World War. he was literal, ly worried to death by the "war talk" of the daily papers, the columnist«,'and the Vadlo commentators.
A Washington doctor found a woman patient hysterical. She had been listening to a cum men la tor who has been denounced as a liar on innumerable occasions by soma of the most prominent men in this country—including the Igte President Roosevelt—and had his voice trained to arouse fear and emotion, The doctor prescribed a remedy— don't read the papers; don't listen to commentators who would do anything to acquire a dirty dollar,
Where Does Roy Oet Mis NewsT
Most papers play up any news Item, however trifling, whieh can lie made to look like a threat of Imminent war, and seem to actually resent any hint of peace,
For example, President Truman conferred with Secretary of State Marshall, General Clay and other Amei lean officials who should know about the situation in Uer many and then declared that "chances for world peace are excellent."
Immediately Roy Howard's cliain of newspapers flew into a rage, In a prominently displayed editoiial, they blasted Truman and Insisted "the chances for peace are not e». cedent." Where did Howard get his information?

Fur Uioae who say America would never go fascist, just a little footnote. The other day in Slum* Mountain, Georgia, the Kii Klux Klan held a little get-together.
There ware gome 1,000 hooded Klan members at the meeting along with some 7,000 unrobed sympathisers. They Initiated 700 new mem-hpr*. , License plates , on ears rhowed members from 15 sis I as. Charteied busses brought Klans-men from Alabama, Tenftesaee. Florida and from many towns In Georgia. An Aaaoclated Prosa photographer was hauled down from the top of a vehicle and struck several times in the face causing bleeding and his exposed pistes were seised by Klansmen
The meeting opened with prayer. Klan meiifbers gwure to uphold the Constitution, protect southern womanhood partly by themaelves promising not to commit rape, and promised not to commit tieaaon againat the United State«. The uhlef aim of the Klan, said their national leader, was to maintain "white supremacy.'' He said M President Truman insisted on hla civil rlghta piogiam "blood will again flow In the streets."
How this last threat ties le with upholding the Constitution Is left for the reader tp figure out, Only, don't tell us again that American temperament wont stand for fascism in the United States.

For years state laws prohibits life insursnce companies from making certain investments. But states have modified their laws 10 thst these companies could nsakr other investments beside« bond« and securite«, and certain housing mortgages.
Now they are busy buying factories, warehouses, carper grocery ■tores and sundry business. Something like $300 million has been invested in auch enterprises, snd this Is only the beginning. The life in-rurance companies are expected te Invest heavily In this type of bus)* ness In the future.

Q. B. Shaw Say» War Would Bring Disaster, Praises Wallace
By JohajMMe Steal
LONDON — (FP) — "A war between the U.S. snd the Soviet Unnion would ruin both countries" and Henry A. Wallace la tha only Americsn figure who "can do some thing about the international «Itu-ution," 92 year-old George Bernard Shaw, arand old man of English latter«, told me In an eaclutlve Interview for the Federated Praw and the York nanette * Dally.
Although the famous Irish-born playwright rartly talk« to tha prow, he «poke to me practically uninterruptedly for over an hour, on subjects ranging from polities and history to srl and science.
When I asked him what he thought of Thomas E Dewey, ftepubUM|' Presidential candidate, hla answar Was short. '1 dent, sir, I don't think about Mr, Dewey. 1 never |pet the man "
Hefore 1 could ask him about the other candidates, he want on: "It doesn't make any difference, It's all the same, Democrat or Republican, represent« tha «ame. Wallace la the man, tail the American people that Shaw «ays Wailaoe Is the only ona among the candidates who is a aerial philosopher—the only man who can do something about the international situation bevauae ha knows something about It. Tha moment Wallace announeed he would stand I said there Is my man—tall the Aowrtean people I repeat It—every «ingle «vote for Wallace 1« a vote for advance."
Asked about foreign policy, Shaw •hot out the answer: "Foreign policy? America ha« no foreign policy
-Uiey are gi oping In the dark, there 1« a lol of confusion " Warming to hi« subject, he added; "War between the US and the Soviet Union would ruin theid both. Fur* thermore, it would bankrupt the US before il starta, the U S would have lo pay for the rest of the world t<> go to war along with It Cgr-tainly England couldn't pay for It"
He waa equally prompt In answering my question: "Hew can the relations between the two countries best be improved?"
"How can there be any relationship between one set of facta, name-ly Hi« Soviet Union, on Uia one hsnd and, on the other hand, the abuse snd slander thai have been heaped upon that country for the pasl 20 years?" hf demanded.
