Zvezni senat zavrnil predlog za odpoklic do tretjine ameriških vojakov iz evropskih NATO držav — Reagan je bil zelo proti
WASHINGTON, D.C. — Zvezni senat je z večino 55:41 zavrnil predlog, ki ga je bil Predložil sen. Sam Nunn (D. - Ga.) in ki je zahteval odpoklic domov do tretjine ameriških vojakov, nastanjenih v raznih evropskih NATO državah, ako bi omenjene članice NATO ne začele izpolnjevati svojih obljub, da bodo okrepili svoje konvencionalne vojake sile. Nunn in mnogi drugi senatorji so namreč jezni, ker nosijo ZDA naj večje bre-me v NATO. Predsednik Reagan je močno nasprotoval temu predlogu, češ, da bi škodoval NATO in nič pomagal.
Senatorji so pa odobrili predlog republikanskega senatorja Williama S. Cohena iz Maine-a, po katerem bi ZDA ne imele nastanjenih v NATO državah več kot sedanjih 26.414 vojakov. Glasovanje je bilo 94 za Cohenov predlog, le 3 senatorji so bili proti.
Zvezni senat in tudi predstavniški dom razPravljata o proračunu za obrambno taj-hištvo za fiskalno leto 1985. Republikanci ‘ntajo večino v senatu in so torej bolj naklonjeni od Reaganove administracije predložena proračunskega načrta, v spodnjem °niu imajo večino demokrati, ki želijo 2natno omejitev rasti izdatkov za obrambne namene.
Predstavniški dom odobril zakonski osnutek ° naseljevanju tujcev - Špansko-govoreči in mnogi drugi niso zadovoljni

Med drugim, odobren zakonski osnutek edvideva amnestijo za vse tiste nedržavlja-ki živjj0 neprekinjeno v ZDA od 1. ^ uarja 1982 dalje.

strankinega programa, ki bo predložen strankini konvenciji julija v odobritev. Kot kaže, je program zelo liberalen, podpira med drugim več zakonskih pravic za osebe, ki so homosekualce, nasprotuje ameriški podpori tistim silam, ki se z orožjem bojujejo zoper sandinistični režim v Nikaragvi. Program napada predsednika Reagana in trdi, da bi bili Amerikanci srečnejši pod demokratsko administracijo.
V	odboru so tesno sodelovali pristaši bivšega podpredsednika Walterja Mondala, ki bo brez dvoma strankin predsedniški kandidat, in sen. Gary Hart. Hartovi predstavniki pravijo, da so zadovoljni s programom stranke ter da osnutek vključuje več Harto-vih stališč. Mondalovi in Hartovi predstavniki v odboru so sodelovali v odklanjanju predlogov, ki so jih bili predložili privrženci črnskega kandidata Jesseja Jacksona. Le-ti so med drugim predlagali za strankin program, da bi demokrati podpirali neodvisno palestinsko državo ter delali za zmanjševanje ameriških izdatkov za obrambo za najmanj 20 odstotkov.
Mondale sedaj intervjuva možne podpredsedniške kandidate. Včeraj je imel sestanek z županom Los Angelesa Thomasom Bradleyjem, jutri pa bo sprejel na svojem domu v Minnesoti teksaškega senatorja Lloyda Bentsena in županjo San Francisca Dianne Feinstein. Politični analitiki menijo, da se bo Mondale opredeli! ali za Han<» rdi pa morda za senatorja Dala Bumpersa iz Arkansas. Jesse Jackson je dejal, daje Mon-dalovo intervjuvanje »možnih« kandidatov le pretveza in da Mondale ne bo pod nobenim pogojem izbral ali ženske ali črnca. Analitiki sicer v veliki večini soglašajo, pripominjajo pa, da gotovo Mondale ne bo izbral Jacksona.
Predsednik Reagan trdil, da nosijo odgovornost za rast zločinstva v ZDA predvsem liberalci
HARTFORD, Conn. — Predsednik Reagan je rekel v govoru na zborovanju Narodne šerifske zveze, da imajo ameriški liberalci iluzije o zločinstvu in da so te iluzije prenesli v ameriško sodstvo. Posledica je, da so sodišča preveč naklonjena kriminalcem in preveč popustljiva napram zločinstvu. Zaradi tega, je nadaljeval Reagan, podpira natančen pregled zveznega zakonika, kar sicer nasprotujejo demokratski poslanci spodnjega doma kongresa.
V	Ameriki imajo nov, privilegiran razred kriminalcev, ki so prepričani, da imajo pravico kršiti zakon. Temu je treba napraviti konec in imeti v mislih predvsem interese družbe ter še posebej žrtev kriminalcev, je dejal predsednik.
Saudska Arabija bo nadzorovala precejšen del voda Perzijskega zaliva — Sorazmerno tiho na fronti med Irakom in Iranom
WASHINGTON, D.C. — Saudska Arabija se je odločila, da bodo njena bojna letala nadzorovala vode v Perzijskem zalivu, po katerih plovejo tankerji in druge tovorne ladje. Ako se bi pojavila nad temi vodami »sumljiva letala«, jih bodo Saudci pripravljeni napasti. V Pentagonu in Beli hiši pravijo, da podpirajo Saudce v tej večji vlogi.
Saudskemu stališču pripisujejo zahodni vojaški strokovnjaki vzrok, zakaj ni v zadnjih dveh tednih prišlo do novih iranskih napadov na tankerje in druge ladje v Zalivu.

Predsedniške volitve
Sedaj ko smo v Ameriki nekako sredi predsedniškega votivnega procesa, ki traja komaj nekaj manj kot dve leti, meje vprašal prijatelj, kaj mislim o tem dolgotrajnem demokratskem postopku. Odgovoril sem, da imam pač svoje mnenje, katero po mojem prepričanju deli z menoj kar precej ameriških državljanov. In sem mu potem na kratko razložil svoje poglede na ta ameriški fenomen, ki je svojevrsten in edinstven na svetu. Poslušal me je pazljivo, včasih vmes kaj pripomnil, nato pa svetoval, naj o tem nekaj napišem, češ, da bo ta problem zanimiv za bralce AD. Odvrnil sem, da o notranjepolitičnih zadevah moje nove domovine vkljub mnogim skušnjam iz mojega dolgega življenja skoraj nikoli nič ne zapišem.
Zdi se mi namreč, da sem navzlic 35-letnega življenja v tej deželi, vendarle še vedno novinec v oceni ameriškega »way of life«, kar je tako svojevrstno, da se je prišleku iz tujega sveta težko, če sploh mogoče, psihološko vživeti v mentaliteto in življenjski stil ameriškega človeka. Ravno zato nekaj napiši, kako izobražen človek, ki ni rojen v tej deželi, gleda na volitve predsednika in jih ocenjuje. To je vrhunski in najvažnejši politični akt ameriške demokracije in zasluži vsestransko analizo. Kar napišil - Pa naj bol
V vsaki, tudi šibki in nepopolni demokraciji so volitve fundament politične in vsake druge svobode. Vendar je ta definicija mnogo preveč splošna in široka, radi česar jo je treba bistveno dopolniti, če naj volitve res predstavljajo politično svobodo. Biti morajo v vseh fazah volivnega postopka od začetka do konca popolnoma neodvisne od vsakega uradnega vpliva ali celo pritiska, tudi pri izbiri kandidatov, in biti morajo tajne. Težko bi našli danes na svetu diktatorja ali diktatorski režim ene same stranke, ki bi se ne posluževali volitev, da z njimi zakrijejo svoj hegemonijo; paradirajo s parlamenti in drugimi demokratičnimi ustanovami, ki so le figov list za samovoljno in nasilno vladanje poedinca ali oligarhije. Vsi komunistični in fašistični režimi so šolski zgled za »demokracijo« iz takih volitev.
. Ameriške volitve so v tem oziru brez graje, kolikor gre za zadržanje uradne oblasti. Je pa tu druga sila (a ne samo v Ameriki), ki več ali manj vpliva na izbiro kandidatov in njihov votivni uspeh. In ta sila je - denar. Saj jo Amerikanci na razne načine krotijo, zavedajo se njenega negativnega učinka, a izločiti jo brez nasilja ne morejo. Nasilja te vrste pa Amerikanec ne prenese, čeravno je do nasilja na splošno kar strpen.
Slavna konstitucija te svobodoljubne dežele določa, da se predsednik federacije voli vsako četrto leto. Vsi vemo, kakšno veliko moč ima ta prebivalec Bele hiše - simbol ameriške veličine v svetu - in porok uresničevanja Lincolnovega znamenitega izreka: vlada ljudstva z ljudstvom in za ljudstvo. Ker je predsednikova moč tako velika, naj bo tudi kratka - so mislili oblikovalci ustave. Če bi kak predsednik po nesreči vodil politiko dežele v napačno smer, bo njegove politike kmalu konec, narod bo hitro izvolil drugega, boljšega, in federacija bo cvetela naprej.
Toda kratkosti predsednikovega termina se pridružuje dolgost volivnega postopka. To pa mnogim vodilnim in modrim ljudem ni všeč, ker novo izvoljeni predsednik komaj more uspešno razviti svoj program v kratkem razdobju od enih volitev do drugih, ki traja brez volivne agitacije in

Prva obletnica smrti Ludvika Leskovarja
CHICAGO, m. - Dne 6. julija 1983 je sredi dela na svojem posestvu v Wisconsinu nenadoma omahnil v smrt dr. Ludvik Leskovar. Nekaj dni nato so ga sredi slovenskih narodnih noš, ob ameriški in slovenski zastavi, ob tožnih melodijah slovenske pesmi, položili v grob.
Pri oddaji programa na slo-vensko-ameriškem radiu v Chicagu, katerega je sam pred 30 leti ustanovil, sta mu v slovo in spomin govorila dva predstavnika čikaških Slovencev. Še enkrat poslušajmo:
Dr. Vendelin Špendov, župnik pri fari sv. Štefana -
»Ob tej priložnosti bi najprej rad izročil izraze iskrenega sožalja Vam, gospa Co-rinne. Vaši družini, sorodni-v kom in prijateljem ob izgubi Vašega moža, dr. Ludvika
Piknik Misijonske Znamkarske Akcije
CLEVELAND, O. - Pred dvema tednoma ste bili opozorjeni, da bo v nedeljo, 8. julija, piknik Misijonske Znamkarske Akcije na Slovenski pristavi. Piknik se bo začel s sv. mašo ob 12. uri pri Spominski kapelici. Sv. mašo bo daroval naš duhovni vodja g. Karel Wolbang C.M. Po sv. maši bo na razpolago kosilo in sicer ali goveja pečenka s prikuhami ali segedinski golaž. Proti večeru, okrog 5. ure, bodo pete litanije Matere božje.
Ker smo prosili za dovoljenje točenja alkoholnih pijač, ne bo ta dan iskanja sreče pri mačku v Žaklju. Lepo pa prosimo gospodinje za domače pecivo.
Vse, kar bomo ta dan zbrali, bo dodano k pomoči razdelitve ob koncu leta vsem slovenskim misijonarjem. Vsi smo poklicani k širjenju misijonske misli, zato naj bo dan 8. julija misijonski praznik.
V	torek, 10. julija, pa ste vabljeni v cerkev Marije Vne-bovzete, kjer bo ob sedmi uri zvečer sv. maša, nato pa občni zbor. Pridite!
V	imenu vseh, ki bodo deležni naše pomoči, prav lep pozdrav!

Leskovarja. Izrazom sožalja se pridružujejo tudi ostali frančiškani, delujoči v Združenih državah.
»Vsaka ločitev je težka. Zlasti ob smrti, ko naenkrat dragega bitja, človeka, ki nam je bil ljub, ki smo ga spoštovali in imeli radi, da tega človeka ni več. Vsak človek čuti tako izgubo. Človek je žalosten. Tudi veren človek, ki ve, da pokojni živi dalje, živi večno, in da se bomo nekoč zopet našli. Kristus je rekel: Jaz sem življenje in vstajenje, kdor v me veruje, bo živel - četudi umrje. In pri maši za pokojne slišimo: ..Življenje se le spremeni, ne pa uniči". Naravno je, da je človek ob smrti žalosten. Tudi Jezus se je raztožil ob Lazarjevem grobu. Ob teh urah nam Jezus zagotavlja, kakor je zagotovi) svojim učencem: Ne bom vas zapustil sirot, kajti v Bogu živimo, se gibljemo in smo.
»Naše življenje vodi božja previdnost. Če pogledamo v svoje življenje, bomo opazili marsikaj, kar je bilo nekaj prav posebnega, nekaj, česar si ne znamo prav razlagati.* Vsak človek to doživlja; le'če zna prav pogledati v življenje in se vglobiti vanj in v vse dogajanje.
»Za pokojnega Ludvika Leskovarja je pri pogrebni maši govornik (p! Kalist Langer-holz) to lepo povedal. Namreč, da ga je Bog hotel tu, prav v tem kraju imeti, da bi budil za-,' vest rojakom, jim prinašal slovensko besedo in pesem po radiu in jim bil na uslugo v mnogoterih problemih. Študiral je za advokata - za »law-yer-ja« -, pa ga je božja previdnost pripeljala sem in mu dala posebno nalogo, ki jo je v svojem življenju lepo izvršil.
»Sv. Frančišek Asiški, veliki ljubitelj narave in najpopolnejši posnemalec Kristusov, je v svoji hvalnici stvarstva ali »Sončni pesmi« počastil in se zahvalil Bogu tudi za »sestro smrt«.

Zveza slovenskih oltarnih društev se pripravlja na romanje v Lemont

CLEVELAND, O. - Zopet nas lemontski zvonovi opominjajo na letno romanje Zveze oltarnih društev iz Clevelanda, da prihaja čas, ko se moramo odločiti na romanje k Mariji Pomagaj, ki se vsako leto vrši meseca avgusta.
Letošnje romanje bo 11. in 12. avgusta. Letos smo naročile dva avtobusa od Anderson avtobusnega podjetja, ki nam zagotavlja dobro postrežbo. Cena za vožnjo, prenočišče in hrano je $70.00. Upam, da boste vse zadovoljne s tem.
Priglasite se od Sv. Kristine pri naši glavni podpredsednici Mary Gerl (tel. 261-1316); od Marije Vnebovzete pri Rose Bavec (331-6167); od Sv. Vida
sprejemata prijave Ana Brodnik (361-3948) in Mary Marinko (486-3136). Prosim vas, ne odlašajte predolgo, ker čas beži. Predno se vse uredi tudi vzame čas. Prijavite se že danes!
Torej na noge, moje drage sočlanice in prijateljice sv. Evharistije. Marija nas vabi na Njeno sveto mesto v Lemont, da nas pritegne k svojemu Srcu in nam podeli milosti, katere tako nujno potrebujemo. Mnogim je težko, odločiti se na tako dolgo pot, a Ona vedn'o preskrbi, da se srečno pripeljemo tja in nazaj.
Vas prisrčno pozdravlja in kliče na veselo snidenje

»Ko se nam končno izteče pesek življenja, ne bo zadnje merilo, kako dolgo smo potovali, ali kako uspešno služili, kaj smo dosegli, ampak, ali smo zares odsevali božjo podobo - vsem, s katerimi smo ramo ob rami delali in družno prenašali težo dneva z njimi.
»Dr. Leskovar je bil vsa leta med nami vnet in ponižen služabnik Dobrote, Resnice m Lepote. Z vsem srcem predan naši dediščini, je bil slovenskemu kulturnemu prizadevanju neizčrpen mecen. Je zvesto >n nesebično, tiho in skorajda neopaženo podarjal ves svoj čas in razdajal svoje talente.

venske duhovnike in na zelo različno vlogo, ki so jo in jo često še igrajo pri reševanju neumrjočih duš. Raztepeni smo zares, a božji duh, ki nas povezuje, je otipljiv in vsak na svoj način vrši vsak dan poslanstvo, za katerega je bil klican služiti božjemu ljudstvu. Poletni MZA pikniki
privabijo zlasti v Clevelandu in Milwaukeeju mnogo rojakov in onih iz drugega ali tretjega rodu, ki še čutijo, da je v njihovi krvi nekaj »slovenskega«. Navadno pride v Cleveland na piknik tudi lepo število duhovnikov, ki pojejo kot eden pri popoldanskih litanijah Matere Božje, v povezanosti s pevci-laiki, ki obogatijo s svojimi glasovi lepoto petih litanij. Mnogi rojaki komaj čakajo na ta dogodek, po cele mesece že vnaprej.
Sv. maša bo na clevelandskem MZA pikniku v nedeljo, 8. julija, na Slovenski pristavi ob 12. uri, pri Kapelici na Orlovem vrhu. Opoldan nas bo božal vetrič, če izmolimo lepo vreme in vsi bomo molili, peli, poslušali in brali, da nas bosta Bog in Njegova Mati Marija res vesela.
V duši bomo občutili mir, ki ga svet ne more dati, ko skupno prejmemo Jezusa v sv. obhajilu in zapojemo »Marija, skozi življenje, voditi srečno znaš...« in »Vene cvet mladosti...«
Res je malo daleč v Genevo na Pristavo, vendar je tudi res, da naš človek hiti poleti v vse konce in če imamo prevoz postane tudi taka pot nekaj običajnega. Živim in delam sredi ljudi, ki skoraj vsak teden poleti hitijo na jezera in v poletne kolibe. Zdi se, da ni nikdar predaleč in vreme preslabo, da bi se ne našlo opravičilo, da ljudje gredo ven, v naravo in sveži zrak. Na Pristavi je vsega tega v izobilju.
Srečali bomo spet polno znancev,
ki jih često redko vidimo, ali sploh ne, če bi takih piknikov ne imeli. Govorili bomo o naših misijonarjih in misijonarkah, obudili znova spomine na večino tistih, ki smo jih v življenju poznali, srečali, si z njimi dopisovali ali jih celo podpirali.
Vedno smo ganjeni, ko nas kdo povabi na zajtrk ali malico s takim ponosom in veseljem, da vse, še tako preprosto, zelo tekne. In še darove mnogi prinesejo, saj to je edinstvena prilika, ko je vse za naše misijonarje in pionirke na terenu.
Obnovili bomo spomine o naših misijonskih pionirjih, ki so že odšli k Očetu, ali tistih, ki že težko pridejo, ker težko stojijo ali hodijo na stara leta. V duhu bodo z nami tudi oni.
Naše goreče gospodinje bodo kuhale, možje točili osvežujočo pijačo, igre bodo na razpolago in, upajmo, tudi nekaj muzikantov, da ne bo nobenemu dolg čas. Mladi zelo radi gredo v plavalni bazen, a se kasneje vsi nagnetejo okoli kuhinje, da lakoto uteši-jo in žejo pogasijo.
Prosta zabava je za mnoge najbolj privlačna. Delaš to, kar se komu poljubi in naložiš dragocene razpoložljive ure tako, kot si sam želiš. Res, »lots of fun!«
Vsako leto smo veseli,
ko avto za avtom na Pristavo prihaja in se nasmejani srečujemo s starimi misijonskimi prijatelji in znanci. Celo vodstvo MZA Cleveland pride tja, naš advokat Lipold, vrsta zvestih misijonskih pionirjev laikov in med duhovniki je le redko kdaj kdo, ki ne more vsaj kratko na piknik, enkrat popoldne. Monsignor Baznik je leta zelo rad prihajal med nas. G. Julčeta Slapšaka bomo pogrešali in župnik Varga bo z nami v duhu. G. Lekan, dr. Krajnik in še kdo bodo verjetno prihiteli, da se srečamo z
našimi clevelandskimi gg. župniki, Tomcem, Rebolom in Božnarjem. Morda pridejo tudi gg. Kosem, Simčič in Kumše. Vsakega bomo zelo veseli. Na Misijonskem kosilu MZA pri Sv. Vidu so mnogi bili.
Duhovni vodja MZA Fr. Wolbang bo maševal in na razpolago vsem za vprašanja ali informacije. Mnogo stvari se dogaja čez leto in to ali ono nas utegne zanimati iz življenja misijonarjev ali sodelovanja v MZA.
S. Miklavčič je praznovala 50-letnico redovniškega poklica. O. Rudež je bolan v bolnišnici. Brat Mrzel pomalem boleha, a zvesto gara med ubogo mladino. Misijonar Buh je postal monsignor na Madagaskarju. O. Drevenšek gre v zaledje na počitnice.
Poletje je tudi čas velikodušnosti.
Kdo ne bi želel biti dober, ko občuti na sebi blagoslov božje Dobrote?
Naslednji so darovali zadnji mesec in pol: Družina Fred Shusterich v Gilbetu, Minn., $30 za vse. Otroci katoliške šole v Hibbingu, Minn. so darovali MZA $243.69, po svoji učiteljici, sestri Rosalyn Tisel,
O.S.B. Enako vsoto so dali Holy Childhood v škofiji.
V Clevelandu so darovali Marija Strojin in Franc Kamin, vsak po $10; Jennie Strumbel $5; Marija Boh in Justina Pičman, vsaka po $20; Marija Kacijan $400. Vsi so dali za vse.
Župnik v pokoju g. Jože Ferkulj iz Floride je prevzel vzdrževanje treh domačih bogoslovcev in je že daroval za vzdrževanje $1000.00. Ga. Frances Ošaben iz Barbertona, Ohio, je prevzela enega in darovala $500.00. Ga. Frances Škrjanc, Pueblo, Colorado, za vse $10, v zahvalo za zdravje. Vzdrževanje novega bogoslovca je prevzela tudi glavna tajnica Ferjanova in enega njen brat o. Phillip, O.F.M., ki te

Novo predsedstvo SFRJ
Sredi preteklega meseca je Jugoslavija dobila novo predsedstvo. Predsednik predsedstva je postal Veselin Djurano-vič, zastopnik Črne gore, ki ga v Sloveniji dolžijo odgovornosti za visoko zadolžitev Jugoslavije v tujini. On je bil namreč predsednik zvezne vlade v času, ko je bila večina teh posojil odobrena. Črna gora je kljub protestom vztrajala in Djuranoviča imenovala v predsedstvo SFRJ. V Ljubljani so njegovo izvolitev za predsednika sprejeli z velikimi dvomi in izjavljajo, da je pač treba počakati, kako se bo mož na novem položaju izkazal.
Milka Planinc je ostala na čelu zvezne vlade za prihodnji dve leti. Eden od podpredsednikov vlade je dosedanji predsednik vlade SR Slovenije Janez Zemljarič. Slovenec Vlado Klemenčič pa je zvezni minister za finance. V predsedstvu SFRJ zastopa SR Slovenijo Stane Dolanc. Novi predsednik slovenske vlade je pa Dušan Šinigoj.

Iz življenja Slovencev v Milwaukeeju
Festival slovenske folklore letos 25. in 26. avgusta na ADZ letovišču
MILWAUKEE, Wis. - Spominski dan smo tudi letos praznovali pod okriljem SKD Triglav v svojem Parku. Vreme nam sicer ni bilo naklonjeno, vendar so ljudje kljub dežju prišli na proslavo od blizu in daleč, celo iz Waukegana in Racina. V svoji sredi smo imeli priliko pozdraviti tudi nekdanjega župnika iz Holy Hillsa, rev. Izidorja Dixona, ki je v družbi Butinarjevih, kot njun gost, prisostvoval proslavi.
Proslava se je pričela ob 11. uri dopoldne. Pri polni dvorani je navzoče pozdravil predsednik društva Jože Kunovar, sv. mašo, ki je bila darovana za vse žrtve, katere so padle v boju za svobodo, pa je daroval dr. Jože Gole, društveni duhovni vodja. Petje med mašo je vodila Mara Kolman.
Govor, ki ga je imel med mašo dr. Gole, je bil v smislu okrasitve grobov, spominskega dneva, katerega tisti dan z vsem spoštovanjem praznuje vsa Amerika. Spominski dan z okrašitvijo grobov pomeni izkazovanje najvišje časti tistim, ki so svoja življenja položili na oltar domovine za njeno svobodo. Dr. Gole je govoril dalje o slovenskih vojakih, ki so doma branili dom pred nasiljem zatiralcev, tu je imel posebno v mislih tisoče vrnjenih mladih mož in fantov, ki so bili po izdaji »zaveznikov« vrnjeni z lažjo, da jih vozijo v Italijo, v roke domačim rab-
ljem Titovih hord v gotovo smrt. Njih grobov, skupnih in posameznih, nihče ne sme krasiti. Pekoča vest morilcev tega ne dovoli. Njihovih grobov krasitev je lahko samo naša molitev. Zato zanje molimo, da pri Stvarniku izprosijo domovini svobodo in mir!
H koncu so pevci zapeli še žalostinko Vigred se povrne. Izpred oltarja je dr. Gole pohvalil petje in pevce. Petje je bilo namreč v poslopju učinkovitejše, kakor zunaj na prostem, ko se glasovi razgubljajo v vetru.
V drugem delu proslave je govornik Dimitrije Kralj, bivši četniški oficir, v svojem govoru lepo prikazal tako imenovano »Londonsko afero«. Izčrpnost besedila govora z dejanji o vračanju četnikov (domobrancev in drugih beguncev) s prevaro, da jih vozijo v Italijo, je ponazoreval na videotraku v slikah in govorih. Videotrak aparat je posodil Danny Mejač.
Govorniku se je predsednik društva Kunovar lepo zahvalil, hvaležnost so izkazali tudi vsi navzoči.
Sledilo je kosilo, za tem pa prijateljski razgovor v Domu. Zunaj pa je deževalo.
POROKA - V zelo poznani Modicevi družini so imeli v soboto, 2. junija, poročno slavlje. Poročila se je hčerka Barbara z izvoljencem Gary-jem F. Stupekom. Poročne
slovesnosti so bile ob desetih v cerkvi Sv. Barbare na 3300 W. Becher cesti. Obrede je lepo spremljal pevski zbor sv. Janeza, katerega članica-pevka je nevesta bila (kakor tudi vse ženske članice Modicove družine).
Po maši so domače in pevce pri Modicevih lepo pogostili, ženin z nevesto in pričami pa so se odpeljali v Triglavski park na slikanje. Nikjer ni namreč primernejšega kraja za lepo sliko, kakor cvetoči skalnjak ob jezeru, ki je ves v cvetju in zelenju. Zvečer pa smo se zbrali z mladima novoporo-čencema, domačimi, številnimi prijatelji in znanci v veliki dvorani restavracije Klemmer, kjer smo bili vsi dobro postreženi, bili veseli in se dobro imeli.
Mlademu paru, Barbari in Garyju, želimo iz tega mesta vso srečo in božji blagoslov na novi, skupni življenjski poti! Bog vaju živi!
OČETOVSKI DAN - Pozni bomo z voščili, pa vendar: Vse najboljše vsem živim očetom, rajnim pa naš hvaležen spomin in naša molitev!
Kaj je oče otroku - komaj vemo. Biti oče je vzvišena čast, dana od Boga. Veliki ameriški general McArthur je nekoč dejal: »Sem general in ponosem sem na to. Še bolj ponosen pa sem, da sem oče.«
Znana pa je tudi druga zgodba o očetu: Pri neki hiši sta živela mlada dva, njun sinko in njegov stari oče. Zadnje čase so v družini za mizo jedli mož in žena s sinkom. Stari oče pa je jedel v kotu hiše iz lesenega korita, ker je nekoč po nerodnosti razbil krožnik. Nekega dne zapazi oče svojega sinčka, da dolbe iz kosa lesa. Vpraša ga torej oče, kaj misli s tem narediti? »To bo zate korito, ko boš iz njega jedel na tvoja stara leta.« Od tistega dne je stari oče spet sedel za mizo z ostalo družino.
Našemu Parku je božja narava na široko odprla vrata. Pozni pomladi je končno toplota in mokrota pripomogla k bujni rasti zelenja in cvetja. Božji naravi so pripomogle še pridne roke in srca prizadevnih Triglavovih članov in članic. Poletni pikniki pa vas vse vabijo, da pridete pogledat naš »planinski raj«, naš »Triglav«!
V Parku, v lepem kotičku med rožami in zelenjem, že vsa leta preživlja svoj zasluženi pokoj vsem Slovencem znani Toni Strmšek, starosta Trigla-vanov. Letošnja pomlad, ki jo je celo zimo z upanjem pričakoval, pa mu z zdravjem ni mogla popolnoma ustreči. Njegova pridna žena Dari se mu ob bolezni vsa žrtvuje. Vozi ga k zdravnikom za pomoč. Upajmo, da se mu zdravje spet povrne, kar mu vsi želimo! Bog daj tako, dragi Toni!
Naj na koncu zapišem katero zares, ali pa tudi za špas:
Iz domovine: »Dali smo vse iz sebe, da bi nagrabili k sebi.«
EUCLID, O. - Tretji festival slovenske folklore v Ameriki se letos vrši na »Slovenskem vrtu« letovišču Ameriške Dobrodelne Zveze v Leroy Town-shipu v soboto, 25. avgusta, in nedeljo, 26. avgusta. Festival prireja Slovenski folklorni inštitut v Ameriki.
Letošnji »Festival slovenske folklore« je že težko pričakovan od mnogih, kateri so se udeležili teh folklornih festivalov v preteklih letih. Ljubiteljem slovenske folklorne tradicije, glasbe in pestrih, barvitih narodnih noš iz vseh slovenskih pokrajin, se obeta letos še mnogo bogatejši in pestrejši dvodnevni folklorni program kot prejšnja leta. Sporedi mnogih folklornih in glasbenih skupin se bodo vršili oba dni od 1. ure pop. dalje.
Poleg skupin vseh starosti Slovenskega folklornega inštituta bodo med drugimi nastopali tudi priznane skupine: Triglav iz Londona, Nagelj iz Toronta, S.A.R.C. iz Chicaga in Geneva Grape Jamboree Slovenian Folkdancers.
Na sobotnem programu bo nastopala tudi slovenska godba na pihala - USS Band. Dalje, nastopala bo tudi profesionalna folklorna skupina Živili iz Columbusa, končno pa tudi mednarodna skupina iz Akrona. Obe skupini nastopata tudi s slovenskimi plesi in sta pod slovenskim vodstvom.
Za ples in zabava bodo oba večera igrali sledeči orkestri: Veseli Slovenci, Alpski sekstet, orkester Toneta Klepca, kakor tudi večje število »button box« orkestrov in sicer na odru na prostem in v dvorani. Oba dni bo na razpolago velika izbira domačih, okusnih okrepčil.
»Tako vneto smo mahali z bakljo napredka, da nam je ugasnila.«
»Pri nas (tukaj) pa nam veselje kali grenkost zavisti.«

Predsedniške volitve
(nadaljevanje z 2. str.)
mrzlice le nekaj nad dve leti. Zares kratka, prekratka doba za mirno vladanje. Sicer ustava dovoljuje še enkratno izvolitev za drugi termin, a mnogi mislijo, da to ni pametno in dobro, ker vladajoči predsednik lahko v škodo naroda ura-vnva svojo politiko v prid izvolitve v drugi termin. Bolje bi bilo po mnenju teh ljudi, da bi se rok vladanja podaljšal na šest let, volivna kampanja skrajšala na kaka dva meseca največ, drugi rok bi pa popolnoma odpadel.
Sedanja kampanjska doba, ki jo nekateri ambiciozni predsedniški kandidati sedaj začenjajo že več kot leto in ol, ali celo dve leti pred novembrskimi volitvami, je po vseh merilih mnogo predolga. Sedanje primarne volitve za imenovanje (nominacijo), ko aspiranti tekajo po deželi cele dolge mesece in se pripadniki iste stranke med seboj zmerjajo in z blatom obmetavajo, namesto da bi zasledovali (tudi v interesu svoje stranke) reševanje perečih narodnih problemov, bi bilo na vsak način koristno reorganizirati. Le pomislimo samo, kaj J ;e pred 4 leti dovolil senator Kennedy v svojem brutalnem nastopu zoper Carterja, aktivnega predsednika iste stranke!
Sploh pa strankarska vodstva tu pomenijo zelo malo ali nič. Vsakdo lahko pod strankino firmo dela kar hoče, disciplina je šla rakom žvižgat, a to ni pridobitev demokracije, temveč zguba, čista zguba. Zgled imamo kar pred vrati. Zamorski predsedniški kandidat je pozitivno vedel, ko je prijavil svojo kandidaturo za nominacijo, da pod nobenim pogojem ne more zmagati, in to vedo vsi, ki ga podpirajo. Ima pač svoje cilje, ki z borbo za predsedništvo nimajo prav nič opraviti. S svojo kampanjo razbija trdo pridobljeni proces rasne integracije Martina Luthra Kinga in ga hoče na svoj način naslediti. Razdvaja strankino enotnost, a njeno vodstvo do sedaj ni ničesar vidnega ukrenilo, da bi to, pod strankino firmo izvajano početje ustavilo. To ni demokracija, pač pa zloraba demokracije.
Če omenim še ogromne vsote denarja, ki ga kandidati (tudi sedanji črni) potrošijo zlasti za strašno drage volivne oglase na televiziji, pa vemo, da težki milijoni pridejo tudi iz federalne blagajne, naj bo slik o poteku predsedniških volitev dovolj za prikaz, da tudi v ameriški demokraciji ni vse zlato, kar se sveti. Se zdi, da je tega svetiva skoraj preveč. Je pač produkt človeškega uma in ni popoln. Vendar je najboljši sistem vladanja, kolikor jih pozna zgodovina in naš čas.

BLAŽ FARČNIK
Ker je Blaž Farčnik naredil Vsaj tri kopije brezjanske podobe Marije Pomagaj, povej-mo kratko, kdo je bil in kje je živel.
Rodil se jel. 1879 v Ljubljani. Letos je torej 105 let temu. K frančiškanom je vstopil 1. •896 in bil posvečen v duhovnika 1. 1902. Umetnost je študiral v Italiji in v Firencah dozorel v akademskega slikarja. Pd 1. 1915 do 1919 je prebil v 'talijanski internaciji na otoku Sardiniji z nekaj drugimi Slovenci. V tamkajšnjem mestu Ronni je poslikal baziliko in veliko portretiral italijanske vojaške in civilne predstavnike.
Ro končani vojski se je vrnil ! Ljubljano in začel deliti svo-Je Jalente domovini. Dobil je veliko naročil, zlasti za opre-m° bogoslužnih prostorov in ** cerkvena bandera. Cerkev v Novi Štifti pri Sodražici je °krasil s 15 skrivnostmi rožne-H)7Venca‘ njegovo delo so 1.
'8 ob preurejanju cerkve Odstranili. V cerkvi sv. Franči-. v Ljubljani je poslikal zad-Ojo steno, na Bledu kapelico Terezije Deteta Jezusa. Jegov opus še ni ocenjen niti ne katalogiran. Nekaj njego-P r’sb in študij je ohranil p.
Oman Tominc in jih v poseb-o**1 mapah shranil v franči-anski knjižnici v Ljubljani.

Zasmejal se je in preslišal moje besede: »Berač je bil prisoten, ko je ljubljanski vladika kronal v Lemontu našo Kraljico, in še danes se ji klanja poln hvaležnosti za vse milosti, ki jih je prejel po njenih rokah...«
Letos poteka torej tudi 60 let, kar je dospela podoba Marije Pomagaj v Lemont. Ljubljanski škof dr. Anton Bonaventura Jeglič je kronal podobo MP v Lemontu v nedeljo po evharističnem kongresu v Chicagu dne 27. junija 1926. Vse delo in priprave je vodil p. John, tedanji gvar-dian.
Pogled na Begunje
Prekrasen pogled sili na vas. kako me vleče ta lepi obraz. Pomladno odetega rojstnega kraja,

POT BREZJANSKE MARIJE V TORONTO
Podoba Marije Pomagaj, ki sedaj krasi glavni oltar prve slovenske cerkve v Torontu, je prišla v Ameriko po posredovanju p. Bernarda Ambrožiča, ki je ustanovil v Detroitu župnijo za Slovence in je hotel imeti v cerkvi sv. Janeza Vian-neyja tudi brezjansko Marijo Pomagaj. Posnetek je naredil p. Blaž Farčnik 1. 1927, torej tri leta potem, ko je bila narejena podoba MP za Lemont. Podoba je ostala v cerkvici sv.
Janeza v Detroitu tako dolgo, dokler je niso podrli in pod župnikovanjem p. Odila Hajnška postavili nove cerkve. P. Odilo trdi, da je bila podoba nekaj časa tudi v novi cerkvi. Gotovo pa je, da leta 1940, ko je p. Bernard šel skozi Detroit v Kanado, podobe ni bilo več v cerkvi. Zanimal se je zanjo in jo tudi našel, spravil jo je in odnesel s sabo v Grimsby, Ontario.
V	Grimsbyju je bil takrat župnik poznejši torontski pomožni škof B. L Webster, ki je pozneje postal nadškof v Peterborough, Ontario. Njega je p. Bernard poznal že več let, saj je začel misijonariti med slovenskimi rojaki leta 1934. Župnik Webster mu je prepustil cerkev Srca Jezusovega v Vinelandu, ki je bila takrat in je še danes podružnica župne cerkve sv. Jožefa v Grimsbyju, le da jo danes imenujejo St. Helen’s Church.
V	tej cerkvi je prišla podoba Marije Pomagaj zopet do svoje časti. Ustoličena je bila ob priliki verske slovesnosti dne 18. avgusta 1940. Slovesnosti
se je udeležil tudi župnik Webster, ki je podobo pred ustoličenjem blagoslovil in ob tisti priliki tudi pridigal.
Ave Maria leta 1940 nam pove, da je podobo blagoslovil tudi tedanji torontski kardinal in nadškof McGuigan. Nadškof je prišel na obisk v župnišče v Grimsby ravno ko so pripravljali podobo Marije Pomagaj, da ji dajo primerno mesto v cerkvi. Povedali so mu, kaj nameravajo, in da so mislili njega prositi za dovoljenje. Nadškof seje vstopil pred Marijino podobo in dejal, naj mu povedo pomen in zgodovino podobe. Pazno je poslušal, pa ves čas ni odmaknil pogleda od podobe. Ko se mu je zdelo, da je dosti zvedel, se je sklonil nad podobo ter jo pobožno poljubil. Dejal je še besede: Marija z Brezij, vzemi tudi Slovence v moji škofiji pod svoje varstvo! S tem je bilo izrečeno višje cerkveno odobre-nje, ki se je zdelo prijaznejše in ganljivejše kot najlepši podpis in največji pečat. Poročevalec (verjetno sam p. Ber-

Podoba Marije Pomagaj v prvi slovenski cerkvi v Torontu
(nadaljevanje s F • >
nard) je v AM zaključil: Marija Pomagaj! Ti pa čuj in usliSi kratko, pa iskreno molitev svojega služabnika, nadškofa v Torontu!
Zamisel p. Bernarda, da bi ustvaril v Vinelandu kanadske Brezje, mali Lemont, bi se verjetno uresničila, kakor se mu je uresničilo domalega vse, česar se je lotil, ako ne bi vojska, ki je takrat divjala po Evropi, imela svojih posledic tudi med našimi rojaki v tujini. P. Bernard je videl potrebe tudi v domovini in ji je hotel pomagati. Zato je zapustil Vine-land, a podobo MP je pustil tam. Ni znano, kako dolgo je podoba ostala v cerkvi Srca Jezusovega. Župnik Webster je prav gotovo ni odstranil, ker je zapustil Grimsby že leta 1942 in odšel v Welland za župnika cerkve St. Mary. Njegov naslednik je bil Bernard A. O’Donnell (1942-1948). Po pripovedovanju še živečih rojakov (Frank Možina) je bil župnik Wilfrid J. Murphy, ki se mu je zdelo bolje, da sliko Marije Pomagaj odstrani. Murphy je ostal za župnika do
1.	1972. Moral je biti silno delaven, saj je opustil staro župnijsko cerkev in zgradil novo (1956), jo izplačal v treh letih in leta 1962 postavil še novo, prostorno župnišče.
P. Odilo poroča v Koledarju AM 1951, da je p. Bernard šel v Kanado leta 1950 obiskat svojeta brata Alojzija in da se je mimogrede ustavil v Vinelandu in zvedel, da slike MP ni bilo več na stranskem oltarju v cerkvi sv. Helene (na zahtevo ali prošnjo velike dobrotnice je župnik spremenil naslov cerkvice od Sv. Srca Jezusovega v St. Helen’s). Našel jo je zapuščeno v prostorih pod cerkvijo. Znova je z njim romala, to pot v Malvern, Ont., kjer se je po drugi svetovni vojski na farmi sester karmeličank s svojo družino naselil njegov brat. Na njega se je knfalu nato obrnil župnik v Torontu, Rev. Jakob Kolarič C.M. s prošnjo, da mu podobo prepusti za bodočo cerkev, za katero se je tisto leto že pričela živahna akcija med torontskimi Slovenci, zlasti med novonase-Ijenci. Istega leta (27. avgusta 1950) so torontski rojaki pod-vodstvom škofa Gregorija Rožmana romali v Midland in vzeli milostno podobo MP s sabo. Pred njo so v svetišču kanadskih mučencev ponovili obljube in posvetitev brezmadežnemu Srcu Marijinemu.
To romanje v Midland je bil naj večji dogodek za slovenske rojake do takrat. Udeležilo se ga je okrog 300 Slovencev (4 avtobusi iz Toronta in eden iz Hamiltona (33 romarjev). Pečat romanju je dal škof Rožman in milostna podoba MP. S tem so rojaki v malem ponovili spokorno procesijo, ki so jo pred več kot sedmimi leti, sredi grozot druge svetovne vojske imeli na Rakovniku in katere sc je udeležilo 27 ti-
soč ljudi. r 'arji so obnovili posvetitev . ezmadežnemu Srcu Marijinemu, ponovili pa tudi obljube, ki sojih med vojsko dali Mariji: Našega Gospoda ne bomo več žalili z grehi nečistosti, ne z bogokletjem, ne s skrunjenjem Gospodovih dni, ne z grehi medsebojnega sovraštva, da bomo vsak dan molili sveti rožni venec ter prve petke in sobote prejemali zadostilno sveto obhajilo.
Med molitvijo rožnega venca in med petjem Marijinih pesmi so romarji šli v svetišče, kjer je nato maševal in pridigal vladika dr. G. Rožman. Njegov govor je bil eden najlepših, kar so jih rojaki kdaj slišali. Popoldne je bil na prostem križev pot, v cerkvi pa posvetitev Marijinemu brezmadežnemu Srcu.
Malo pred novim letom 1951 je dobila podoba MP svoje mesto na zadnji steni blizu vrat v cerkvi Mount Carmel, v kateri so že od piye adventne nedelje 1949 imeli redno nedeljsko službo božjo. Tam je podoba ostala do septembra 1954, ko so jo sneli z namenom, da jo dajo v nov okvir.
Leta 1954 je bila nova cerkev MP dokončana in ko je za sklep Marijinega leta, dne 6. decembra 1954 ljubljanski škof dr. G. Rožman prvikrat daroval v novi cerkvi sv. mašo, so slovenski verniki zopet ugledali pred seboj nad glavnim oltarjem podobo MP v novem sijaju, z bleščečo kro--no na glavi.
Letos obhaja cerkev MP na Manningu svojo 30-letnico. Verniki župnije sv. Gregorija v Hamiltonu bomo med letom poromali k tisti milostni podobi MP, ki je naredila dolgo pot od Ljubljane (1927) preko Detroita in Vinelanda in Mal-verna in cerkve Mount Carmel do prve slovenske cerkve na Manningu. Od leta 1940, ko je p. Bernard nameraval imeti v Vinelandu mali Lemont, kanadske Brezje, mineva 44 let. Naše kanadske Brezje so sedaj na Manningu, tam je ena tistih lepih podob MP, ki jih je znal narediti čopič akademskega slikarja p. Blaža Farčnika, ki je umrl v Dalmaciji 1. 1945, a živi še vedno med nami v svoji lepi kopiji brezjanske MP.

AMERIŠKA DOMOVINA, JUNE 22, 1984
Salute to Minnesota Slovenians
Slovenians gave America six generals, including tour-star Gen. Ferdinand Chesarek (left). They ®ave Austria its last chancellor to resist Hitler, Kurt von Schuschnigg (Sušnik), and Ger-its second chancellor, Georg Leo von c*Privi (originally Kopriva). Among Slovenes’
“gifts” to the U.S. is Frank J. Lausche (right), former mayor of Cleveland, five-term Ohio Governor and two-term U.S. Senator and a man President Eisenhower called “a natural for the U.S. Presidency.”
On Saturday, May 19, Dr. Edward Gobetz, professor of sociology and anthropology at Kent State University and founder and director of the Slovenian Research Center of America Inc., presented a comprehensive lecture on a century and a half of Slovenian contributions to Minnesota in the large auditorium of the Iron Range Interpretative Center in Chisholm, MN.
Despite beautiful weather, the lecture was well atttended by Slovenians and an impressive number of others, including Croatians, Serbians, Finns, Germans and Irish.
Grateful tribute was paid to Bishop Frederic Baraga, the greatest 19th century apostle, trailblazer and scholar of the Northwest Territory. And who among our people would not be proud of such fellow Slovenians as Father Pirc, the founder of the diocese of St. Cloud, or Msgr. Buh, the father of the diocese of Duluth? Who could fail to admire Father John Čebulj, who built the very first church in Duluth and knew at least 14 languages, or Jacob Trobec, that magnificent and most effective bishop of St. Cloud, who lovingly preached in seven different languages? One splendid contribution has followed another — for 150 years, up to the present day!
The entire lecture has been videotaped for use by Minnesota schools and interested TV stations. It also will be published as a book chapter.
On this occasion, the Slovenian Research Center also presented one of its many traveling exhibits on Slovenian heritage and Slovenian contributions to Minnesota, America and the world. In ad-
dition to some 50 display panels, historic documents and books (including Bishop Baraga’s Indian works) were exhibited, while Miss Veda Ponikvar contributed a very beautiful display of Slovenian artifacts. The exhibit was visited by a large number of Slovenians and other conference participants, as well as by numerous American and Canadian tourists. Tom Ser-sha, the talented and dedicated exhibits director of the Iron Range Interpretative Center, praised the Slovenian exhibit as “professional and very comprehensive,” while Prof. Branko Colakovic stated that he found the exhibit “very educational” and added that every ethnic group should have “someone doing something like this.”
At the beginning of his lecture, Prof. Gobetz expressed his gratitude to all associates and friends of the Slovenian Research Center who have helped him with materials and leads on Minnesota Slovenians, especially Joe Kovach, Veda Ponikvar, Father Perkovich, Frank Tekautz, Bernard Petrich, Msgr. Schuller, Anica Tushar, Angela Kuhel-Klancnik, Sister Suzanne Prebilic, Father Tegeder and Father Sustersic.
The Slovenian Research Center also is grateful to the staff of the Iron Range Interpretative Center, to American Home, Amerikanski Slovenec, The Free Press, The Hibbing News, Duluth Tribune and other newspapers, and to Polde Omahen and Matija Plečnik, all of whom have significantly contributed to the success of this “Salute to Minnesota Slovenians.”
A youngster admires part of the Slovenian exhibit, shown recently in the Iron Range In-trepretative Center in Chisholm, Minn.

Sister Zora Škerlj of the Ur-suline Sisters, P.O. Box 685, Serowe, Botswana, in far off Africa wrote a letter in Druiina, describing the hunger and starvation of the people. One of the results was that people have developed consumption. There is a special lack of beef, protein, so necessary to the human body for survival. She has a special kind word for Caritas, the international organization which is concerned with charity for unfortunate victims. Most of all, she pleads for prayers.
Slovenian missionaries in Madagascar are pleading for more priests. This request was in answer to Bishop Charles Remy Rakotonirina, Bishop of Farafangni. The plea was signed by the active mi-sionaries which included Rado Sušnik, Sister Marjeta Mrhar, Sister Amanda Potočnik Pedro Opeka, Sister Marija Pavlišič, Rok Gajšek, Klemen Štolcar, Janko Slabe, and France Buh, all of whom are stationed at mission posts in Madagascar.
In Ljubljana, Slovenia, recently, there was a meeting of priests at the mission headquarters of information about the missions. Part of the activity included an exhibition of various objects related to the

This year’s national Baraga Day will be hosted in Chicago on Sept. 1 and 2. Activities will center around St. Stephen’s Church on. W. 22nd Place. For out-of-towners, special arrangements have been made with Hotel Continental. Special advanced rates have been made available for members of the Bishop Baraga Association.

Central Grade School Gymnasium, Marquette, Michigan at 11:00 a.m., Friday, June 29. This will be followed with a luncheon at St. Peter’s Hall at 12:30 p.m.
Philatelists can send the 13-cent Baraga post card for cancellation (to become a col-lector’s item) to the Postmaster, Marquette, Michigan 49855-9992.
Among distinguished graduates mentioned by the Catholic Universe Bulletin was Wendy Buchanan of Regina High. She was a Phi Betta Kappa honor student. The daughter of Mr. and Mrs. John Buchanan of Euclid, she is also the granddaughter of John and Mary Petrie. Mr. Petrie has been active in the Slomšek for Sainthood Society, as well as Bishop Baraga Association. At present he along with Mr. John Prosen masterminded the Bishop Gregory Rožman Memorial Fund. Congratulations Wendy, an outstanding student!
Anton Oblak has obtained a video cassette of the BBC program, discussing the Klagen-furt conspiracy. British military officers who were involved in the wholesale transfer of Slovenian, Croatian, and Serbian war refugees for repatriation, discuss the tragic events. All indications according to Nikolai Tolstoy are that the former prime minister Harold Macmillan ostensibly made a deal with the Yugoslav forces, whereby they withdrew from Carinthia which they had occupied. In exchange, the more than
200,000	refugees were transported by strategem to Yugoslavia where they were all slaughtered by the victorious revolutionists.
Also an outstanding student graduating from Villa Angela, 3rd in the class was Frances Jurkovič. Frances is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. John and Anna Jurkovič of 1210 Norwood Road, Cleveland. Congratulations, Frances, on your scholastic achievements!
Bob Mills of Bonna Ave. K8TTZ has been named vice-president of the North Coast Amateur Radio Club. Congratulations, again. Bob!
The Catholic Institute in Paris has awarded a doctorate to the Rev. Dr. Drago Ocvirk, a Lazarist.

At the same time he has been alternating with the Catholic Institute of Paris.
Our congratulations!

An electronics technical magazine reports that Lubo Micic is the father of digitized TV. He is managing director of ITT, Semiconductor Division, in Freiburg, West Germany. He is listed as a Yugoslav, probably Slovenian.
Austrian chancellor Dr. Fred Sinowatz returned from a visit to India where he presented Mother Teresa, the renowned worker among the poor there, $45,000. She said gratefully the money would be spent among the poor. Mother Teresa also announced she would be opening a motherhouse in Vienna next year. She had been invited by Vienna archbishop Cardinal Kdnig.
For quite some time now, several teenagers have been seeing a vision of the Blessed Virgin Mary in a town called Medugorje near Sarajevo, Yugoslavia. Church authorities have been investigating the phenomenon. Government authorities have also started an investigation. So far no discrepencies have been discovered among the young people. Meanwhile huge crowds have been appearing at the site of the visions, but no one has seen or heard anything.
Anyone living in the California environs, if interested in doing missionary work, please contact Mr. Slavo Oven, 835 Pine Street, Monterey, California 93940.
To be a contributor to the mission activities of MZA it is not necessary to contribute monies or services. The society also accepts postage stamps, which was the original concept of MZA. I myself have contributed thousands of cancelled stamps from all over the world. These stamps are soaked, dried, and attractively arranged. Then they are taken to philatelists or commerical stamp collectors’ stores. The money thus collected is then distributed to missionaries, mostly Slovenian, throughout the world. The rewards of giving are rich and satisfying. In Cleveland, stamps can be sent or given to Mrs. Marica Lavrisha, 1004 Dillewood Rd., Cleveland, OH 44119.
God be with you and, z najlepšim slovenskim pozdravom!

AH the friends, acquaintances, neighbors, and relatives of the 12,000 Slovenian peasant men, women and children who panicked and fled to Carinthia at the end of World War II. They were treacherously forcibly returned to Slovenia by the English on their military word of honor and assurances these war victims were being safely transported to Italy. All
12,000	Slovenian refugees were machine-gunned in an open pit common grave. Even today, 40 years later, there is official denial in Slovenia that the tragedy ever took place.

The article “News from Joe Zelle” which appeared in the American Home on Friday, June 1, stating Tony Petkovšek mentioned prominent Tilka Blaha and Vida Tomsic being visitors to our city — So what?
Are not leaders from many countries always here as well as almost weekly from Israel who come to Washington and get fed at the public trough. Is it not better they come and settle their differences at the table, than have our young boys give their blood on some battle front. As long as they are talking, we can feel safe. I do not know if Tilka and Vida went to Washington or not. I am happy they went to other Slovene communities to visit with our people.

United Slovenian Society Offers National Directory
Slovenians are active in 31 states and the District of Columbia. It has been 45 years since anyone has documented Slovenian groups in America. The book offers good insight into the status of Slovenians in ’80s — 100 years after the first settlers started coming over from Slovenia.
The directory should prove valuable to travelers and to Slovenian researchers. A cross-reference lists all the organizations by states and cities.
The book is available at $3.50. It also is available by mailing $4.50 to United Slovenian Society, Slovenian National Directory, 29449 Shaker Dr., Wickliffe, Ohio 44092.

Folklore Dances at AM LA
The Slovene Folklore Institute, Cleveland based folkloric company that has thrilled audiences with their festivals featuring continuous programming of Slovenian folkdancing will be performing Saturday, Aug. 25 and Sunday, Aug. 26 at the AMLA Recreation Center in Leroy Township.
As in the past, the two-day festival will present many other Slovenian folkloric groups from the U.S. as well* as Canada, with their variety of styles and spectacular authentic costumes. It will be a memorable event for both spectators and performers.
This year the big attractions are Živili, a very successful professional dance group from Columbus, Ohio, and the well known United Slovenian Society Band from Euclid.
From London, Ontario comes Triglav, the folkdancing group that has been organizing similar events in Ontario, plus the Nagelj from Toronto, celebrating its 25th anniversary and a string of successful tours in Yugoslavia.
All of the participating groups share the love for the traditions of their ancestors and display a very high level of skill and professionalism. Besides the most popular Gorenjsko costumes, the dancers of the Slovene Folklore Institute will feature costumes of many other regions of Slovenia, some relatively little known, but just as colorful and authentic in every respect.
The Slovene Folklore Institute also has a history of stage performances, including a two-day series at the renovated Ohio Theatre in downtown Cleveland. Since its inception four years ago, it has performed over 100 times at various events, Slovenian as well as American.
Because of all this activity, many more persons got to know about Slovenians, their colorful style and spirit and their willingness to work hard to create something beautiful and worthwhile.
Because each of the performing groups has a large repertoire and is more than willing to show it all, the show tends to last all afternoon. But the audiences love that and stay glued to their seats.
Slovenia has many regions providing plenty of variety in costumes, music and temperament; even so, the traditional dances are interspersed with symoolic dances that portray the old customs of the land. And the Živili will provide
t’y.V. 'ir.‘.I'iiCi b:>ttc:>•.c vj*'i w
even more variety by showing the Yugoslav dances with their own special temperament and rich costumes.
In the evening the public will get their own chance to dance to the music of the excellent bands of Duke Marsic and the Alpine Sextet. Refreshments and the Slovenian authentic food will also be available, thanks to the fine large facilities of the AMLA Recreation Center.
The festival is gaining momentum as many spec-
tators, some from as far away as Chicago and Philadelphis, would not miss it for the world and bring new friends every year. But then, where would you get a better show for the money.
AMLA Recreation Center is located on Kniffen Rd., off 1-90, exit 205 (Vrooman Rd.)
Tickets may be bought in advance from Tony’s Polka Village, 481-7512 or Tivoli Enterprises, 431-5296. The price at the gate is $4.00 or $3.00 in advance.
Ferra’s Celebrate 60th
Joe and Dorothy Ferra will be celebrating 60 years of marriage this Sunday, June 24 with a Mass and dinner given by their children at St. Mary’s Church, Collinwood.
The couple’s contributions to the Slovenian community here have been prolific. They have been members of St. Mary’s Church for 50 years; he is on the Executive Church Council. Joe and Dorothy are members of the Holy Name and Altar Rosary Societies, respectively.
For 59 years they have been members of SDZ (AMLA), and of KSKJ Lodge No. 169 for 58 years. They have been very instrumental in the St. Joseph KSKJ lodge, combining for 30 years of service as financial secretaries. Mrs. Ferra was director of the Cadets for 20 years.
Mr. Ferra has served for 42 years on the Collinwood Slovenian Home Board of Directors, and as an officer for 19 years. He is past president of the Slovenian Home on Holmes Avenue, Pensioners, and a longtime member of the Ward 32 (now
Ward 11) Democratic Club. Dorothy is a member of the Slovenian Women’s Union.
The Ferras were married in Eisden, Belgium on June 28, 1924. Dorothy was there playing violin and accordion in a family musical ensemble. Her husband-to-be had arrived in the country after working in Hungary, Czechoslovakia, Germany and France since the age of 16. After marrying, they lived in Holland for three months in order to earn fare for transportation to the U.S.
Mr. Ferra worked for 42 years at the New York Central Railroad. They have two sons, Joe and Frank, ten grandchildren and nine greatgrandchildren. Along with her other activities, Mrs. Ferra taught violin and accordion for many years.
Their relatives and friends will pay tribute to Joe and Dorothy this weekend on theii Diamond Jubilee. But they’d better not keep them too long — there’s work to be done in the parish house, at lodge meetings...

Gerdin Achieves Top Instructing Honor
After four years of dreaming about becoming a member of the U.S. Demo Ski Team, Jackson Hole, Wyo., ski instructor Victor Gerdin has accomplished that lofty goal.
Gerdin was named to the team recently at Snowbird, Utah, after a five-day testing period. He joins nine other ski instructors from all areas of the country on the team.
Gerdin, who has been teaching skiing in Jackson Hole since the winter of 1970-71, arrived in that city only a year out of high school. His first ski instructor job was under Bill Briggs at Snow King. Then, during the 1973-74 season, Gerdin became a member of Pepsi Stiegler’s ski school.
With the demo team, Gerdin will travel to several ski clinics around the nation and attend the Inter-ski, a ski convention where instructors from all over the world collect and exchange new ideas and teaching techniques.
His testing period to make the team involved two days of skiing and performing ski maneuvers for the judges. Then the group was cut from 55 skiers to 25.
The next three days consisted of analyzing teaching skills and discussing methodology. Before the final team was picked, it was cut again from 25 to 14 skiers.
During the testing, candidates also had to teach certain skills and give chalk talks on methods of learning.
This wasn’t Gerdin’s first attempt at qualifying for the demo team. He didn’t even make the first cut four years ago.
Successful this time around, he will travel with the U.S. team as it goes from coast to coast in an effort to coordinate teaching skills among ski instructors in the United States.
Though Gerdin plans to stay with the Jackson Hole Ski
Memo From
Corp., his traveling demands will keep him away, although many of his clinics will be taught in the Intermountain Region.
During his four-year stint with the team, Gerdin will help conduct a clinic at the Professional Ski Instuctors National Academy, a six-day school aiming at improving skiing and teaching skills.
Obviously, Victor’s professionalism and dedication in the art of ski instruction have paid him a big dividend.
He is the son of Stanley and Frieda Gerdin, formerly of Kirtland, Ohio, and now residing in Austria, where they are caring for their 93-year-old aunt. They hope to return to U.S. in the near future.
Drennen-Diamond Wedding

The ceremony took place at Little Flower Catholic Church in Cincinnati. A reception followed at the Oak Ridge Lodge in Mt. Airy Forest.
The bride was graduated from the University of Dayton with a degree in education. The groom attends the University of Cincinnati School of Engineering.

Slovenian Art Guild News
A number of exciting events will be happening for the Slovenian National Art Guild in the coming weeks.
On July 7, the Art Guild will again be setting up an outdoor art show as part of the Fair-port Ensemble Button Boxers/Lodge 30 AMLA 4th Button Box Festival, which will be held at the AMLA Picnic Grounds in Leroy. The all day festival will have music provided by groups from Lorain, Mahoning Valley, Maple Hts., Euclid’s St. Stephens, Buttons & Bows, Buttonaires, Her-minie, Pa., Penn-Ohio, and Joe Kusar and Students. The Fairport group is an organization member of the Slovenian National Art Guild and as Warren Fabian has said so many times, “Music and art go together.”
July 13, 14, and 15 is the 3rd SNPJ Slovenefest, at Enon Valley, Pa. with booths, music dancing, and plenty of food. Guild artists with individual booths are Mildren Hoegler, Justine Skok, Enika Zulic, Vlasta Radisek and Anda Novak, who will be found along Artists Row, next to the Multipurppse Bldg., as they have been the previous two years.
There will be a display of the Slovenian folk art “splashers” or “Stenske Prtičke,” and bobbin lace or “Klekljane Čipke”, though on a smaller scale than in other displays
since the main part of the collection will be hanging in exhibition.
July 20, 21, and 22 is the 12th Annual Outdoor Arts Festival sponsored by the Fine Arts Association operating the School of Fine Arts in Willoughby. There are over
2,000	students enrolled in day and evening classes, curriculum in music, art, dance and drama, and is one of Ohio’s most beautiful art centers for both the performing and visual arts.
The Slovenian National Art Guild is honored to be selected as the special exhibitor in the Main Gallery, featuring the Slovenian folk art Splashers, Bobbin Lance, and nationality costumes. The splashers and bobbin lace as seen at John Carroll University will be further enhanced by authentic costumes of various regions being provided by the Slovene Folklore Institute headed by Guild member Eda Vovk-Pusl. We are quite aware of the importance of the inclusion of such an exhibit at an event which draws nearly 120 artists from across the country, with attractions such as band ensembles, dancers, production of “Annie” among a full three day schedule. The event is open to the public, and thousands will be visiting and viewing as they have in the past.

It was hot, humid, stuffy and there was no breeze. Not even a hint of a whisper of a breath of fresh air.
The boy lie on his bed trying to sleep. It was past midnight and he was semi-awake. It was too hot to sleep.
The window of his bedroom was wide open. He got up and pulled the Venetian blinds up so if a breeze came through it would not be impeded in the slightest way and would bring its soothing caress directly to his oven-like body. He was dressed only in his under shorts. Trying to catch any cool air, he moved his bed from the corner of his room to directly in front of the window lengthwise.
He slowly sank on the bed, trying not to exert too much energy which would only make him hotter. “Maybe it was the novel I had been reading earlier in the evening,” he thought. He had been reading one of Christopher Wren’s novels about the French Foreign Legion. “Digesting the action taking place on a sun-drenched Moroccan desert did not evoke thoughts conducive to sleep on a hot, sultry night,” he reasoned.
He turned on the light and delved into an Ellsburg novel, “Pigboat” about sailors trapped in a submarine under the sea. After a while they were a sweaty mess waiting for rescue.
The boy turned off the lights and tried again to find the peace of slumber. He could hear the Norfolk and Western freight trains clickety-clacking their way through Cleveland at

Warm support and encouragement for the Folk Festival has come from Mayor George Voinovich and his administration as well as the Cleveland Growth Association.

“The Big Island”
The island and state share the same name — Hawaii - but most visitors refer to it as “The Big Island.” It was from here that King Kamehameha I launched his battles to unify the islands and put an end to civil wars.
After we landed at the airport at Keahole-Kona, we picked up our rental car and started for our Kona Surf Hotel. The airport is built on a

gigantic flow of ancient lava, and the state has tried to beautify the road by planting flowers on each side of the road in a variety of colors.
Believe it or not, once again we had difficulty finding our hotel. It got to be a joke. The desk clerk informed us that the state discourages signs and that some of their guests have told her that they spent as much as five hours looking for the hotel. Our room was the grandest room I have ever been in. It measured 18 feet long and 14 feet wide, plus an entry hall and bath. The patio faced the gardens and ocean and measured 14 feet by 12
feet, was decorated with a round table, four chairs, a chaise lounge and still left room to dance. We measured it to satisfy ourselves.
After we got settled, we drove on Alii Drive to the major resort town Kailua-Kona, referred to as “Kona.” We came to a wonderful shopping center such as abound at all resorts. I purchased a set (necklace, earrings and a bracelet) - made from Kukui nuts. In ancient times, Kukui nuts were worn only by the Hawaiian royalty as a symbol of love and affection bestowed upon them by their subjects. The rough nuts are painstak-

Ohioans Pay, Others Receive - says Eckart
Congressman Dennis E. Eckart (D-Mentor) attacked unfair federal government tax and spending patterns this week and released new information which shows that Ohioans continue to send much more in tax payments to Washington than they receive back in spending.
Citing data compiled by the Northeast Midwest Con-gressinal Coalition, Eckart said that for every dollar in tax payments sent to Washington in 1983, the state of Ohio got back 87<t in spending. In the South and West, the average return was $1.07.
“We must reverse national policies which promote economic development in the South and West at the expense of the Northeast,” Eckart said. “All we seek is our fair share.”
The state-by-state breakdown, based on Census reports, shows that all seven Midwestern states ranked in the bottom quarter in their return on the federal dollar. Ohio ranked 39th, Eckart said. In contrast, fewer than
one-third of the 32 states in the South and West received less in federal spending than they contributed in taxes last year.
“The Defense Department, our biggest spender, has sent an increasing portion of its budget to the South and West,” Eckart said. “The Northeast-Midwest, which contains 44% of the nation’s population, received only 31% of all defense expenditures last fiscal year. The Midwest states alone got only 9%. Meanwhile, the Pentagon spent $124 billion in the South and West.”
Eckart said several proposals passed by the House this year would help to reverse this disparity. “I have long advocated a program passed by the House last month to target Pentagon contracts to qualified firms in the high unemployment areas. In the coming year, $4 billion in non-strategic procurement contracts will be targeted to areas like Northeast Ohio, where hundreds of persons are still unemployed.”

We found a Chinese restaurant which just opened two days before, where I finally got a good American style hamburger with grilled onions. Although the waitress didn’t know what I meant by “grilled,” the owner came to my rescue and told the cook how to fix my sandwich. Oh, it was so-o-o good to have
