fašistične Čete napadenega
treh FRONTAH
Dve italijanski diviziji pognani v beg
PRIPRAVE ZA NA-SKOK NA TOBRUK
London, 21. jan. — Angleška
oborožena sila v Afriki je začela napadati italijanske čete na treh frontah. Zabila je ie zagozdo v italijansko Eritrejo, napadla A-besinijo in Somalijo in zožila jeklen obroč okrog Tobruka, zadnje fašistične baze v vzhodni A-
friki.	t........y
Tu izročajo, da je general Ar-chrbald. Wavell, uoveljnik angleških armad v Afriki, odredil o-fenzivo z namenom, da zruši IlussoUnijev afriški imperij, preden postane nacijska pomoč Ith-liji učinkovita. Angleške čete »o danes zasedle več italijanskih po- ru, ker situacija ni bila tako kritična kot je danes.
Ameriški parniki že vzdržujejo promet med vzhodnimi obrežji Severne in Južne Amerike, ki so ga prej vršili angleški parniki. Ta promet bo prišel ponovno v angleške roke, če bo Nemčija poražena. ' lata aranžma bo veljala za promet na Pacifiku.
Člani federalne pomorske kor misije ao izjavili, da plovba na Atlantiku prinaša največ dobička. Ako bo Amerika po vojni dobila večji delež prometa na tem morju, ji bo to v korist.
Amerika prevzame angleške črte _
Vzdrževanje , prometa na Pacifiku
Waahlngton, D. C., 21. jan. — Izgleda, da bo Rooseveltova administracija fprejela angleški predlog in prevzela plovbo na angleških črtah na Pacifiku, ker vojna ovira angleške operacije na teh črtah. Federalna pomorska komisija je začela razpravljati o tem vprašanju.
Predlog je bil, da Amerika "posodi" svoje pamike Veliki Britaniji, da ti nadomestijo one, katere je slednja izgubila v zadnjih mesecih. Mine, nemške bombe in podmornice so potopile veliko število angleških parni-kov. Sugestija, da Amerika prevzame angleške pomorske črte, je bila sprožena v zadnjem juniju. Anglija je takrat izjavila, da potrebuje parnike v svojih vojnih conah. Takrat ni bil storjen neben korak v tem ozi-

Atene, 21. jan.—Angleški letalci so sestrelili italijanski bombnik, poškodovali drugega in prepodili ostale, ki so se pojavili nad glavnim grškim mestom. Bitka, ki so jo opazovali, prebivalci, se je vršila dve milji nad mestom. Bombe, katere so vrgli Italijani, so ubile in ranile nekaj civilistov.
Pozneje so se pojavili nad Atenami drugi roji italijanskih bombnikov, nakar so se Angleži ponovno dvignili v zrak in jih prepodili. Uradno poročilo pravi. da je eden italijanski bombnik treščil v morje v bližini otoka Fle vena, drugi pa pri rtu $u-niumu. Večina bomb, katere so vrgli fašisti, je padla v morje. Le nekaj je bilo poškodovanih.
Kljub slabemu vremenu, ki ovira vojne operacije na albanr »kih frontah, so Grki dosegli več uspehov severno od Klisure. U-prizorili so več naskokov na ita-|inske pozicije v hribih in nekatere so okupirali.

Angleži na Japonskem pozvani domov
Svarilo pred prihajajočo krizo
Tokio, 21. jan.—Britski konzulati so svetovali vsem angleškim podanikom, ki nimajo važnega vzroka za nadaljnje bivanje na Japonskem, naj odpotujejo domov, "preden nastane resna kriza v odnošajih med Japonsko in Združenimi državami." Angleži so bili tudi opozorjeni, da bodo odhodi parnikov preklicani v slučaju poostritve krize. Ameriški državljani, ki so bili nedavno tudi opozorjeni, naj se vrnejo domov, niso dobili nO-vih instrukcij.
Japonski zunanji minister Jo-suke Matsuoka je danes rekel v parlamentu, da bodo Japonska, Nemčija in Italija dosegle svoje cilje, če bodo imele dovolj časa. Glavni cilj je ustanovitev novega svetovnega reda. Matsuoka je izrekel upanje, da bo Amerika napela vse svoje sile, da prepreči prihajajočo krizo, ki lahko uniči civiiizaci/o.
Minister je dalje rekel, da je morala Japonska iskati vife materiala, ki ga potrebuje, v vzhodni Aziji, ko je Amerika odredila embargo na izvoz blaga na Japonsko. Dostavil je, da je Amerika demonstrirala, da ne razume teženj, ki so življenjskega pomena za Japonsko.
SABOTAŽA EDINA OBRAMBA
vBelgrad, 21. jan.—Diktator Hitler je odstranil nadaljnjo oviro na svojem pohodu preko nevtralnih balkanskih držav, ko je Jugoslavija pod pritiskom dovolila transportacijo nemškega bojnega materiala po svojih železnicah. Sporazum je bil sklenjen s pridržki, pravijo avtoritete v Bel-gradu.
Jugoslovanski zunanji urad je pojasnil, da ponudba in sprejetje sta prišli izven regularnih diplo-matičnih Btrug. Posebni nemški odposlanec je nedavno predložil Hitlerjevo ponudbo nekemu visokemu jugoslovanskemu uradniku, čigar ime se sploh ne omenja, ker bi to lahko izzvalo potežko-če. Vse kaže, da bodo bolgarski diplomatični stebri porušeni, ko se bo izboljšalo vreme, nakar se bodo nacijske armade začele valiti proti jugu.	~
Jugoslavija še ni padla s plota, na katerem čepi, na nemško dvorišče, Čeprav se močno nagiba na nacijsko stran. Sporazum s Hitlerjem—pravijo—je le ust-men in storjen je bil le v načelu. Jugoslavija še vedno stoji na stališču politike čuječega Čakanja. Sporazum se lahko aplicira le v vojnem času, kar pomeni, da bo moral Hitler prej udariti po Grčiji in Turčiji. To ae bo zgodilo šele po razvozlan ju bolgarskega vozla. ...
Domneva je, da sta Hitler in Mussolini razpravljala o sunku proti Egejskemu morju, ko sta se sestala na konferenci. Kje ae je ta vršila, je Še vedno tajnost. Gotovo je, da Hitler kot strateg osišča ne bo ponovil napake, katero je storil Mussolini z napadom na Grčijo.
Nemčija je zahtevala od Jugoslavije večje koncesije kot jih je dodbila. Ena teh se je nanašala na razširjenje železniške proge, po kateri vozijo orientaki brzo-vlaki do Niša in od tam naprej preko bolgarske Makedonije v Grčijo. Ta proga je hrbtenica Jugoslavije. Nemčija je zahtevala razširjenje te proge, todg naletela je na odpor pri jugoslovanskih voditeljih. Ti so le dovolili Nemcem transportacijo bojnega materiala po tej železnici, nc pa vojaških čet.

NACIJSKI TISK NAPOVEDAL VELIKO OFENZIVO
Hitler in Mussolini do* segla nov sporazum
UGIBANJA O NAME-NIH OSISCA
Berlin, 21, jan.—Zagrinjalo, ki je prikrivalo dogodke pred sestankom med Hitlerjem in Mus-solinijem, je bilo včeraj nekoliko dvignjeno. Nemška javnoet je le iavedela, da se je konferenca med diktatorjema vršila in da sta se je udeležila tudi Joachim von Ribbentrop in grof Galeazio Ciano, zunanja mtnietra Nemčije in Italije.
List Voelkische Beobachter piše, da je Mussolini obiskal Hitlerja. Iz tega se lahko sklepa, da se je konferenca vršila na nemškem otemlju. Kljub megli, ki sa-atira sestanek, so nacijski Usti napovedali veliko ofenzivo osišča. Na katerih frontah sé bo vršila In kdaj ae bo pričela, niso povedali.
MBoj proti Angliji se bo vrtil odločno s skupno nemško tn italijansko oboroženo silo," niše Allgemeine Zeltuijg. "Nova Evropa bo zgrajena kot rezultat tega boja, ne glede na to, kje m bo vršil in na kakšen način. Zmaga v tem boju bo skupna, nemška in italijanaka. Anglija naj le potrpežljivo čaka, toda ona ne bo nikdar izvedela, kar bi rada izvedela."
Nacijeki tisk molči o poteku konference med Hltlšrjim in MussoNnijem. O čem sta govorila, je še vedno predmet ugibanja v zunanjih diplomatlčnih krogih. Pičla poročila o konferenci le omenjajo, da ae Je vrt šila v znamenju vzajemnega sporazuma med diktatorjema In v duhu vojaške zveze med Nemčijo in Italijo. O vseh vprašanjih in problemih je vladalo soglasje.
Naciji se že dolgo pritožujejo, da Italija kot zaveznica Nemčije še ne razume umetnosti zadrževanja važnih vesti. Le stroga tajnost je garancija uspešnih sunkov.
Avtomobili z diplomall so včeraj švigali po berlinskih cestah sem in tja. Več diplomatov se Je oglasilo v uradu zunanjega ministra, da dobe informacije o rezultatu sestanka med Hitlerjem in Mussolini jem. Isvedell so le malo, ker so Jim v ursdu po-Jasnili, da ministra Ribbentropa ni v Berlinu.

V tej okolici, kot skoro po vsej državi, razsaja epidemija "flu". V naši okolici je nad 1500 slučajev te bolezni. Mnogo šol je zaprtih in jih bo še več, ker vlada deževno vreme. Dosti je primerov, ko gre človek zvečer k počitku, zjutraj pa ne mora vstati. V nekaterih hišah so po trije in štirje bolniki. Prizadeto je tudi društvo 18.

Poročilo zastopnika
Milwaukee.—Zadnjič sem poročal, kako je bilo v North Mil-vvaukeeju na januarski seji-društva Vijolice SNPJ. Sedaj pa poročam, kako je bilo na seji društva Sloge 16, h kateremu tudi jaz spadam že ed 1. 1911. Tudi tukaj je bilo/tfse v redu. Zaprisežen je b^novi društveni odbor, ki ga tvorijo vsi stari odborniki s staro plačo. Samo vratar ni hotel več ostati. Izgovarjal se je, da je že dve leti delal zastonj, sedaj pa naj predsednik imenuje drugega, ali pa vrata pusti odprta. — __
Bila je tudi razprava o slovenskem domu, katerega gradimo že od I. 1911, toda smo še zdaj t>rez njega. Takrat so kupili prostor z več poslopji. Ker pa delničarji nis<> prejeli dividend takoj prvo leto, ab ee skregali in pustili. Razprodali so vse in vze-1 vsak svoje In bilo je zopet dobro, društva pa so morala iskati prostore za seje in zabave. Ker je bilo pred več leti kupljeno zemljišče, bi bilo dobro, ako bi se oprijeli dela, da enkrtt tudi v |jllwaukeeju dobimo svoj narodni dom, katereftt tako potrebujemo.
Društvo 16 SNPJ priredi vese-ico 22. februarja v dvorani K. P. na 1926 W. Nattojal ave. Godba bo prvovrstna In vstopnina samo 80e. Vstopnice bodo preje-I vsi člani in plačati jo bo moral vsakdo, kefr to je v korist društvene blagajne. Igrala bo Bashelnova godba, ki zna slovenske, štajerske In tudi ameriške polke In tako se bo vrtelo staro n mlado. Le pridite vsi na to priredbo, ker vem, da bo vsakdo zadovoljen in se bomo sukali do jutra.

Domača zabava društva 234
Milwaukee, Wis. — Na zadnji
seji je društvo Bratoljub 234 SNPJ sklenilo, da priredimo domačo zabavo 1. marca, namesto 22. febr., kakor je bilo sklenjeno na letni seji. Razlog za to spremembo je, ker bo na 22. i>br. imelo svojo zabavo dfuštvo Sloga Št. 16 in tako smo mi preložili veselico za en teden pozneje. Tako je bolj bratsko in članstvo se lahko udeleži te ali druge zabave.
Apeliram na članstvo našega društva, da poseti Slogino pred-pustno zabavo v čim večjem številu. Prav tako apeliram na vsa tukajšnja društva in članstvo, da se udeležite naše zabave prvo soboto v marcu v dvorani Tivoli

«iurfov film Poštne zveze— Pošiljanje denarja
Po „aših naselbinah je bilo in

vse po sreči — izkrca pošto 3. februarja v Lisboni. »—Običaj-•no zapusti vsako soboto newyor-ško luko parnik American Express družbe s pošto za večino evropskih držav.
Poštnina znaša seveda le 5c za navadno pismo. Obratno — to je, iz Jugoslavije v Ameriko
—	pa 4 dinarje. Paketna pošta
—	parcel post — med Ameriko in Jugoslavijo je še vedno ukinjena. Pošljejo pa se lahko mali zavojčki — small packets — Jo 2 funta in 3 unče teže; za vsaki dve unči znaša poštnina 3 cente. a najmanj 15 centov od vsakega zavojčka. Potrebno pa je izpolniti dve listini: Form 2976-A in Form 2976-C1.
Najboljšo zvezo imate seveda po trarutatlantaki zračni pošti. Pošto sedaj redno nosijo trije mogočni aeroplani: Yankee, A-tlantic in Dixie Clipper. Eden od teh treh odleti z letališča La Guardia v New Yorku ob 8:30 zjutraj vsak torek, četrtek in soboto. Clipper j i se spotoma u-stavljajo v Hamiltonu na Ber mudi, kjer običajno angleški cenzorji zadrže pošto do prihodnjega clipperja. Končno pristanišče clipperjev je točasno Lis-bona na Portugalskem, dočim je prvotni clipper letel vsako sredo iz New Yorka v Marseilles na Francoskem.
Poštnina znaša 30 centov za pol unče. Priporočljivo je, da napišete na kuverto: "Via Trans-Atlantic Air-Mail". Pošta se zaključi na glavni pošti ob 7. zvečer v ponedeljek, sredo in petek.
Pošto poberejo v Lisbonu večkrat na teden ali pa celo dnevno letala raznih držav. Italija ima na primer redno dnevno zračno zvezo med Lisbono in Rimom. Zračna pošta za Jugoslavijo gre z letalom v Rim, kako pa potuje od tam, poročam, ko dobim dodatne podatke.
Kolikor je meni osebno znano, je doslej najhitrejše potovalo pismo iz Berwyna v Ljubljano — šestih dneh. Obratno pa je registrirano pismo z znamkami za 26 dinarjev potovalo iz Zemuna Lisbono 4 dni, odtam do New Yorka 6 dni In nato dva dni v Berwyn — skupaj dvanajst dni. Dobro je, da tam napišejo na pismo: "Par avion—Via Lisbon,] Portugal". Seveda ni. potreba registrirati pisma (ako nima važnih prilog), pa bo nekaj dinarjev manj poštnine. Brez dvoma Angleži pisma od tu v Ljubljano niso zadržali na Bermudi. Niti pismo tja, ne ono od tam ni bilo odprto po cenzorjih.
Družba Pan American je zgradila svoje clipperje za bogate turiste. Opremljeni so vsi trije izredno luksusno. To se pravi — opremljeni so bili, ker niso več. Bogatih turistov ni več, danes ne potujejo taki, ki morejo, marveč taki, ki morajo potovati, to so predvsem diplomati in vladni uradniki tja, begunci pa iz Evrope sem., Glavno breme teh mogočnih letal je danes pošta. Ob otvoritvi redne prekomornke poštne zveze po zraku so računali na največje breme 1600 funtov za posamezen polet. Toda zadnjič je poletel iz New Yorka clipper s 13,-400 funti pošte! Sedaj so od-
stranili dragocene preproge, cele vrste mehkih sedežev in celo lične okenske okvire; celo barvo so odstružili! Vsega skupaj so znižali težo treh letal za 1700 funtov. Tako prihranjeni pro stor pa se porablja za pošto.
Portugalska — ki cela stoletja ni igrala nobene posebne vloge in je bila znana bolj po svojem vinu, portu, nego po čem drugem — je danes izredne važ-noati, vsaj za Ameriko. Skoro vsa pošta, ve« diplomatski in blagovni promet med Amerikp in Evropo se vrši preko Portugalske, ki je postala nekaka glavma vrata vse Evrope. Toda za ka
ko dolgo . , .? ' /

Denar lahko peljete v Jugoslavijo na več načinov:
1) Pošta še vedno izdaja denarne nakaznice—money orders —za Jugoslavijo. Tu plačate v dolarjih, tam pa izplačajo po u-radni valuti v dinarjih. Poštna pristojbina znaša približno en odstotek — lOc za pošiljatev desetih dolarjev.
•2) Kupite lahko tu ček—draft v dolarjih, ki ga tam dobitelj izmenja na svobodnem trgu, to je v banki ali hranilnici, recimo v Ljubljanski kreditni banki ali kateri njenih podružnic.
3)	Na isti način se zamenja dolarska gotovina. Todajiikar ne pošiljajte dolarjev v na^kdnih pismih!
.¡z
4)Na	tukajšnjih bankah lahko kupite čeik v dinarski vrednoti. Računa vam na primer Continental Illinois banka $2.30 za 100 dinarjev, kar pomeni 43.50 dinarjev za dolar. Za ček vam zaračunajo še pristojbino 25c. To je sevedu najmanj priporočljiv način.
5)	Najboljši kup pa dobite v večjih bankah, kot recimo v First Nationul bankr v Chica-gu, če pošljete dinarje po kablo-gramu. Za 100 dinarjev plačate približno $1.60, kar pomeni 62.50 dinarjev za dolar/ Toda to se splača le pri večjih vsotah, kajti kablogram stane še posebej $2.00!
Po zadnjih listih, ki so dospeli sem iz Ljubljane, je razvidno, da Je bil pred več tedni tam u-radni kurz dolarja 44.50, na svobodnem trgu pa 55 dinarjev. ' Ob priliki, ko — in če — dobim glede denarnega prometa ter pošte še kake nadaljnje podatke od jugoslovanskih oblasti in bank, se bom zopet oglasil.

Čuvajte se propagande!
Med ameriškimi Slovenci smo do danes opazili zelo malo — bona fide aji simon pure — javne fašistične in nacijske agitacije. Izjemo amo enkrat opazili v Amerikanskem Slovencu, ko je nekdo iz Minneapolisa pel slavo Musso-llniju, enkrat pa v Ameriški Domovini, ko je uredništvo citiralo iz pisma nekega Hitlerjevega oboževalca, v nobenem slučaju pa ni u-rediiištvo ne prvega in ne drugega lista pokazalo, da se strinja s to agitacijo.
Ni pa dvoms, da je mini nami precej privatne propagande te vrste. Zlasti oni ameriški rojaki, ki imajo sorodnike v Nemčiji in bivši Avstriji, so bolj ali manj pod nacijskim vplivom. Našim Primorcem vsa čast! Njihovi sorodniki v stari domovini žive pod kruto Mus-eolinijevo pestjo, ampak naši Primorci v splošnem odločno demonstrirajo' ob vsaki priliki
svoje nasprotstvo do fašizma.
*
Ne moremo pa reči tegu o ameriških rojakih iz Koroške in bivše Nemške Avstrije sploh. Ni dolgo od tega, 'ko smo imeli v rokah pismo z Dunaja, katero vsebuje v našem jeziku slavo-petje Hitlerju. "Naš firar dobro skrbi za nas .,." smo čitali v tem pismu. To pismo je gola nacijska propaganda! In koliko podobnih pisem prihaja med naše ljudi v Ameriko in zastruplja njihovo demokratično mill jen je, če so ga kaj imeli?
Kljub temu nimamo strahu, tla bi ta privatna Hitlerjeva propaganda prodrla v našo javnost v Amšriki ali celo v naša društva v direktni obliki, kakor je na primer med ameriškimi Nemci in v njihovih podpornih organizacijah, ki so danes razkosane v dva tabora. Ameriško javno mnenje Je danea tako sovražno nacizmu, kakor je aovraino fašizmu in komunizmu, da ao vsi oni med nami, ki morda almputizirajo s Hitlerjem, toliko previdni, da molče v javnosti.
Drugače pa je s komunistično propagando; ta se še vedno plazi med nami kot kača pod mizo. Ta propaganda še zmerom sili v naše organizacije, v naša društva. v naše.liste in celo v Prosveto sili. Nu, ne prihaja očitno s svojim pravim obrazom, temveč prihaja zakrinka-na, maskirana na mnogo nedolžnih načinov. Tako je zvita ta -propaganda, da marsikdo med onimi» ki jo širijo ali pomagajo širiti — sami ne vedo, da pomagajo širiti komunistično propagando.
Komunistično gibanje v Združenih drŽavah je pred kratkim izginilo s površja in odšlo pod zemljo. To se pravi, da so komunistični voditelji v New Yorku "uradno" pretrgali stike z Mt»#kyo, razpustili strsnko, prodali svoje vodilne liste starim ženicam in neznancem In sploh ustavili vsako direktno agitacijo/ I "U-radno" ni več komunistov v Ameriki; izginili so kot kafra. t	.
To Je pa le "uradno". V resnici so ostsli v zvezi s Stalinom, njihovi listi, ki izhajajo pod drugimi imeni, so še vedno njihovi listi, stari lastniki njihovih listov so še vedno lastniki pod drugimi Imeni, člani sami so se pa razpršili in zdaj so aktivni v drugih organizacijah, na pri* mor v unijah in v drugih naprednih organizacijah. Nalogi« komunistov zdaj je, da vodijo gibanje za "mir" (American Peace 'Mobilization), <ls indirektno pomagajo Hitlerjevim agentom pri sal»ota*i, «la izzivajo in izrnbljiijo delifks »tavkf v onih industrijah, ki pro«lu«i-rajo liojne potrebščine xa obramls« Amerike In r.a ¿nglijo, skratka: komunistična propaganda ■— maskirana / "«lemokrafttjo" in z zelotsko agitacijo za civilne svoImhIščUic jr r.dsj druga plst narljske propagand«- v Ameriki.

Cleveland.—U bogi jednotinl koledarji, koliko prahil* je radi njih in koliko kritike z raznih strani, največ seveda neopravičene. Smo pač taki, da radi po-godmjamo proti "Cikagi", posebno tukaj v metropoli.
Kaj je napačnega s koledarji? Mar niso prikladni? Mar nas ne spominjajo na otroška leta, ko smo bosi tekali po travnikih za kravami in tudi drva nabirali bosih nog? Mar ae nam samim ni dostikrat pripetil slučaj, kot ga predstavlja letošnji koledar, ali pa nam je še celo noht visei od bose noge? Drugo pa je tudi to, da smo letos v kampanji za oja-čanje mladinskega oddelka in je že vsled tega koledarček prilič-no pomemben. Največ se jeze radi malih datumov. Pa vstrezi vsem, če moreš. Tudi podpisani je bil kritizira radi njih. čeprav neopravičeno. Pa dovolj o tem.
Z društvenimi volitvami smo končali. Sem pa tam je kakšna majhna izprememba. drugače so pa vedno še "stari gardisti" povsod. Nekatera društva se pritožujejo, da je težko dobiti uradnike. Smo pač prišli' v dobo, posebno pri starejših društvih, ko k> res problem, kako dobiti dobre uradnike. In končno tudi ni !udno, Če imamo vedno večji problem s tem. Uradniki se trudijo od meseca do meseca in vse leto, (o pride seja, pa pridejo nekateri in lopnejo po njih. In to pride navadno od tistih, ki najmanj store kaj v prid društva ali organizacije. Seveda so nekateri uradniki bolj "tough" in gredo preko tega naprej z delom.
Kot je razvidno, dela potežko-če tudi točka 102, ki govori, kdo sme biti izvoljen v društveni odbor. Ta točka ni dovolj jasna in je vsled tega predmet različnega ;olmačenja. Jasna je, ko pravi, da člani gl. izvršnega odseka ali zastopniki inšurenc kompanij ne morejo biti tajniki. Jasna pa ni» kjer pravi, da tajuik kake druge bratske organizacije ne more biti član društvenega odbora. Jaz si to točko tako tolmačim, afco sem na primer tajnik kake druge organizacije ali društva, ne morem obenem biti tajnik društva naše jednote. Jaz smatram, da se ta točka tiče le tajnikov, ne pa drugih uradnikov društva. Vsaj tako je bila tolmačena na zadnji konvenciji in s tem sem se deloma tudi strinjal. Nikakor se pa ne more strinjati, da na primer tajnik našega društva ne more biti v odboru društva druge organizacije, ali pa obratno. Za svojo osebo vem. da nisem zato nič slabši tajnik društva, kateremu tajnikujem.
Vsled nejasnosti si torej to točko lahko tolmači vsak po svoje. Za tajnike je res potrebna in bi cfrtala, ker res nihče ne more biti tajnik, iiosebno pa "dober" tajnik dveh društev. In tako se zgodi,'da smo tajniki naših društev olienem tudi uradniki (ne tajnik) drugih društev, le tajniki drugih društev ne smejo biti uradniki naših društev. Ali ni to na|»ačno in tudi napačno tolmačem»? Pri nas je mogoče dober član, t(,xla ne more biti izvoljen v društveni odbor, ker Je tajnik društva druge organizacije. Ce bi bil tudi pri nas v odtmru. bi lahko več koristil društvu in organizaciji, ker tak ima navadno več prilike, «la pridobi kakega člana v društvo, sko mu je naklonjen«». In ker smo v konvenč* nem Tetu, se bo ta točka Inhk«» razčistila in na k«»nvenciji popravila.
Tudi smo v letu kampanje za nove člane. Pri našem društvu V ben M SNPJ um« tudi v juhi-Jejn«<*i letu. Društvo je na letni seji sklenilo, da prasntijem«» HJV-• letnico s programom. Seja je po-jverfla društvenemu odboru, naj igre na delo In pripravi načrte, jda čim imi*og*ntneje pratnti|emo na* .U-letni Jubilej. Ta proslava se In» vršila 9. nov.-v SDI) na Waterloo in sta v ta jiamen na-j Jet i že «»lie d wan i. r*. Seveda pa ne smemo p«»sebiti, bratje In sestre, da to priliko po-¡rabimo tudi za poriši članstva, kot' »em vsm priporočal na zadnji seji. 1'osebito je potrebno, da ojačamo mladinski oddelek pri našem društvu in tud* v odrasli
oddelek skušajmo dobiti enega novega člana za vsako leto društvenega obstoja, to je 36 novih članov. Z vašo pomočjo, člani in članice, to lahko izvedemo in ako boste kooperirali z društvenim odborom, bomo to tudi dosegli. In pri tem ne pozabite, da boste za svoj trud dobili nekaj nagrade za vsakega noyopridobljenega člana. Sploh se vam nagrade nudijo od treh strani: od jednote, od društva in tudi od cleveland-ske federacije.
| Tako se vam torej izplača vaš trud. Toda vem, da tukaj ne gre predvsem za dolarje, ampak !«• za poravnanje stroškov pri ajri tacijskem delu. Pri tem se moramo zavedati tudi svojih dolžnosti in nekaj storiti za društvo in jednoto iz patriotičnega ali lojalnega stališča. Vsakdo naj skuša storiti svoje. Ako pa sami niste dovolj razpoloženi, toda veste za kakega, ki bi mogoče pristopil, obvestite društvene urad nike in ga bomo mi obiskali.

O proalavi društva 254
Johnstown, Pa. — V nedeljo, 12. jan„ je društvo 254 SNPJ na Bon" Alru šlovesno_ praznovalo svojo 26-letniao. To proslavo bi najlažje primerjal "žegnanju" v starem kraju, seveda v bolj moderni obliki, ker jrabuk in pretepov naši ljudje že skoro več ne poznajo, ampak se bolj in bolj prilagodevajo kooperativnemu delu, na katerega smo vedno bolj ponosni.
Naselbina Bon Air ni velika, ampak v zadnjih letih se je dobro modernizirala. Od Franklina, Conemaugha in Johnstowna je oddaljena dobro miljo in z izr boljšanjem cest je Bon Air postal takorekoč predmestje Johp-stowna.	r*
Slavje se je vršilo v društvenem domu. Poslopje ni veliko, vendar so člani poskrbeli, da je zadostovalo za vso veliko udeležbo občinstvu in bratskih gostov iz okoliških naselbin. Preskrbeli so mikrofon, ki je bil napeljan v točilnico, dvorano, kuhinjo, obednico in tudi v klet, ki je bila spremenjena v začasno to» čilnico — "Annex", kot pravijo naši Clevelandčani.
Razume se, da so člani pričakovali gl. predsednika jednote br. V. Cainkarja, ki je imel nastopiti na slavju. Pozneje smo bili obveščeni, da se ne more u-deležitl vsled "flu", ki je zopet začela razsajati povsod In jo že občutimo tudi pri nas. Tako sem bil kot gl. podpredsednik primoran prevzeti njegove funkcije, da se je slavje izvršilo kot je bilo začrtano.
Po moji sodbi je bila tu slav-n«»st za tako malo naselbino naravnost veličastna. Program se je pričel točno ob 3. pop. Bil je zelo obširen, nad 20 točk in ga je vodil br. Gr«»znik. Vseboval je |H»zdravni govor, obris društvenega razvoja od pričet ka do danes po društvenem tajniku In o-stalih odbornikih. Ustanovni člu-nl, 12 po številu, so prejeli šopke in znake od SNPJ, vsak izmed njih je tudi imel kratek govor. Nastopili so tudi lokalni govorniki iz mlajše generacije, ki že zavzemajo učiteljske službe. Za-mladino je govoril v angleščini
i tudi br. J «»s. ('ulkar. predsednik ^^^	- - —

Sodeloval je tudi Bukovčev trio s Koračnico SNPJ in «Iru-gimi narodnimi p«»|>evkami. V krasnem duetu sta nastopili 4«idi z dvema angleškima In dv«ma
slovenskima pesmimi mias Mede in mise Klajder. Tudi članice mladinskega oddelka so nastopile s pesmijo "God Bless America" in poklonile krasen šopek cvetja predstavniku SNPJ, namen jem bratcem in sestricam mladinskega oddelka širom Amerike. Podan je bil tudi nekrolog umrlim članom, ki ga je vse občinstvo stoje poslušalo, mlada Poljakinja miss Mallie Prybilo pa ga je spremljala z violinom. | Vzelo bi preveč prostora, ako bi hotel vse opisati, zlasti osebe. Lahko pa trdim, čeprav je biio tesno, je bil ves program zelo velik moralen uspeh, ki bi delal čast tudi našim večjim odrom v mestih, kjer so navajeni boljše komodnosti. Vtis, ki sem ga odnesel s tega slavca, je, da je pri-društvu 264 še mnogo mladostnega navdušenja za napredek. Le naprej po tej poti!
Andrej Vidrieh. gl. podpredsednik SNPJ.
O koledarju Benld, III.—Ker sem kot tajnica društva 356 SNPJ tudi jaz imela sitnosti z letošnjim jedno-tinim koledarjem, naj povem tudi jaz svoje mnenje. S tem je težko vsem članom ustreči. Prvi član, ki sem mu ponudila koledar, je rekel, naj ga v peč vržem, tako tudi drugi in tretji. Godrnjali so, kako so siromašni. Slika se jim je še dopadla, številke pa nikakor ne, češ da so premajhne. Malo jih je, ki pomislijo na celo vsoto, koliko stanejo. , Moje mnenje je, naj se mali koledar popolnoma opusti, ker z njim so samo sitnosti in nezadovoljnost. Glavni urad naj jih v bodoče izda samo društvenim tajnikom z lepim jednotinim napisom in s primernimi številkami, na sliko se pa ne gleda. Tudi za dvorane nima veliko pomena, kar sem se sama prepričala pred lettr Mi smo veliki koledar obesili v dvorani, Čez par tednov je bila v nji zabava in kmalu je bil koledar pod nogami plesalcev.
Ker je sedaj pri društvih nekako slamnato glasovanje o tem, naj Člani premislijo, kako bi bilo v resnici bolje. Moje mnenje je, da bi bilo bolje, da se denar porabi za stare in revne Člane, ka-.erih je čedalje več in so v resici pomoči potrebni. Ako hočeš dobiti novega člana, ga ne boš dobil s koledarjem, ampak mu moraš dobro pihati na dušo. Annie Widmar, tajnica.
Apel društva 603 za pomoč
Samsula. Fla. — Kot je bilo že zadnjič poročano -v Prosveti, nam je vihar dne 27. dec. 1940 uničil do tal novo društveno dvorano, ki je bila že skoro dograjena. V par minutah nam je vihar porušil vse, kar smo zgradili v par mesecih s trudapolnim delom. Za naše društvo je to težak udarec, ker smo za zgradnjo doma najeli tudi posojilo od dobrega človeka, ki zaupa članstvu.
Da rešimo to posojilo in da pridemo do lastnega doma, ki bo velikega pomena za naše društvo in tukajšnjo slovensko naselbino sploh, smo sklenili, da z delom iznova pričnemo. Prisiljeni smo, da se tukaj obračamo na vsa društva SNPJ, kakor tudi na vse društvene in narodne domove Jirom Amerike, da nam priskočijo na pomoč s prtmtovolj-nimi darovi.
Ker nimamo finančnim sredstev, da bi se na društva obrnili pismeno, apeliramo na vse tajnike. naj prečitajo to prošnjo na njih društvenih sejah. Vsi denarni prispevki se naj pošljejo na
Machek, Vsi
darovi bodo objavljeni v Prosveti. Vam se že vnaprej zahvaljujemo za pomoč.

Za večje koledarje in SNPJ Library, Pa.—Koledarji in zopet koledarji. Kaj bi storili, ako bi ne imeli Prosvete^ Ona prenese vse, torej živela Prosveta! Kar se tiče koledarjev, ni vse narobe z njimi. Res je, da so majhni, za na steno skoraj premajhni, toda lahko služijo kot žepni koledarčki. Toda slika je pa imenitna. Saj nam tako živo predstavlja, koliko trnov ima jednota v peti, katerih bi se rada iznebila.
Torej naprej za večji koledar, za večjo SNPJ in za večjo Prosveto 1 To je vse, kar želimo. Ali zato je treba dela, katerega se pa tako bojimo. Vse, kar želimo, je večja podpora, več izredne podpore in manj izdatkov. To je dosegljivo le tedaj, če se bomo tudi potrudili in kaj brez plačno storili za jednoto, s kritiko se pa težko kaj doseže. Letos bomo imeli konvencijo in čas je, da se za to pripravimo, ker treba bo ruvati trnje in ga nadomestiti z deteljo, če hočemo, da bo naša jednota še v bodoče procvitala in se širila.
Končno povabim vse rojake na veselico pevskega zbora Bleda, ki se vrši v soboto, 1. februarja, v naši naselbini. Igrala bo godba Joeva Kramarja v zadovoljstvo starih in mladih. Na svide nje na veselici.

Kampanja ob 25-letnici Cleveland.—Naše društvo Nanos 264 SNPJ bo proslavljalo svojo 2i5-letnico v nedeljo, 25. maja, z dobrim programom in banketom. Banket se bo pričel ob 3:30, ples pa ob 7:30 zvečer.
Ker društvo želi, da ob času naše proslave šteje 100 članov, je razpisalo tudi svojo kampanjo. Kpr že jednota plača zdravniško preiskavo za nove člane, je naše društvo določilo še posebno nagrado iz svoje blagajne. Predlagatelju plača $1 za vsakega novega člana, novi član pa dobi prosto vstopnico k banketu. Kdor pa dobi dva ali več novih članov, dobi zraven nagrade tudi brezplačno vstopnico k banketu.
Torej bratje in sestre, pridobimo čim več novih članov. Ta društvena kampanja se konča 31. maja. Požurimo se in bomo videli, kateri član bo dobil naj večjo nagrado za svoje dobro delo.

Kako še obvarujemo žolčnik kamnov
2olčni kamni so danes ena najbolj jutfuiJ nih in najhujših bolezni. Na podlagi nat£ čnih statistik vemo, da ima vsak šesti EvroZ žolčne kamne, a največ je med temi i„ žensk. Ženske dobijo žolčne kamne zato Z se v dobi nosečnosti in dojenja nabira v njill vi krvi v velikih količinah neka mastna sU£ stanca, ki jo znanstveno imenujemo holesterk in je glavni sestavni del kamna. Toda nSS ja še drug vzrok, da ženske trpe za žolčnini kamni. Ker stremijo za vitko linijo in « stiskajo z različnimi pasovi, se trebušne mik. ce stisnejo, se počasi polenijo in oslabijo- J pa škoduje tudi žolčnemu mehurju.
Veliko je tudi takšnih ljudi z žolčnimi kamni ki zanje še ne vedo, ker ae pri njih ne pokažejo nobeni vidni znaki. Prvi žolčni napad, tako imenovana "žolčna kolika", ne pomeni začetki bolezni, temveč služi kot dokaz, da že več let! obstaja i-n se potuhnjeno širi v telesu. N». sprotno pa niso vsaki krči v žolčnem mehurji znaki, da že imamo kamne, temveč so lahko p^ ' sledica vnetja. V nekaterih primerih so p» ti krči v žolčnem mehurju nekakšni zrtkki želod, čne nervoze.
Zdravniki strokovnjaki so že pred mnogimi leti ugotovili, da spadajo žolčni kamni med bolezni, ki jih lahko podedujemo. Ker je danei ta bolezen tako razširjena, bi bilo zelo priporočljivo, da bi se tisti, ki imajo še zdrave! žolčne mehurje, varovali te težke in neprijet-ne bolezni: Pred vsem bi morali vedeti to, d« žolčne kamne povzročajo trije čhritelji: r«. množevafije holesterina v krvi in preko nje tudi v žolču; zastoj v delovanju žolča, ki se javlja, ako je izločevanje žolča iz jeter ali žolčnegt mehurja preprečeno; da se žolč po jetrih ali črevih okuži. Izmed nalezljivih bolezni so naj. bolj nevarni tifus, hripa in malarija. Tudi prevelika debelost lahko povzroči, da se nabirajo v žolču kamni.
Najboljše in najzanesljivejše sredstvo u preprečenje žolčnih kamnov je dieta. Vai-nejša pravila, ki so v zvezi z dieto, so tale:
X. Na dan moramo čim večkrat jesti (nuj. manj petkrat).	j
2.	Jesti moramo počasi in hrano dobro zgristi.
3.	Ne smemo nikdar veliko hkrati pojesti.
4.	Zvečer, preden ležemo spat, moramo po-piti skodelico toplega čaja (čaja od pomaranč nega cvetja, kamilic, lipe, ruskega čaja, tople limonade), zraven pa pojesti nekaj piškotov ali prepečenca.
. 5. Hrana mora biti takšna, da ne preobre-menjuje želodca in da s svojo sestavo doprinese k redni vsakdanji stolici.
Največ pažnje moramo obračati na to, da bo delavnost črev zmerom normalna, kajti brž ko se v črevih zapazijo najmanjši nedostatki v delovanju, takrat se v njih kaj hitro prično nabirati strupene snovi, ki zelo rade zamačiji žolčne kanale. Ljudje, ki trpe od neredne sto-lice, morajo jemati kakšna odvajalna sredstva, poprej se pa morajo o njih posvetovati z zdravnikom.
Da ohranimo zdrav žolčni mehur, moramo tudi čistiti vse druge trebušne organe. Ce ttj nam povesijo jetra, se nam tudi žolčni mehur raztegne, zaradi česar se nam zdravljenje žolča zavleče.
Zaradi krepitve trebušnih mišic in ohranitve prožnosti trebušne stene, moramo vsako jutro, preden se umijemo, najmanj 15 do 21 minut, telovaditi. Tudi nekatere športne p* noge morejo koristi, toda samo pod pogojem, da ne pretiravamo. Najprimernejše so tiate vrste športa, ki so zvezane z ritmičnimi vaj* mi in globokim dihanjem, kak6'r je na primer jahanje, plavanje, veslanje in skok v daljavo, Tenis, drsanje na ledu in turistika so zelo priporočljivi športi. Toda nogomet, boks in kolesarjenje so pa prepovedani. Omenim nsj k da je dolgotrajno Šivanje na Šivalni stroj zel« škodljivo za žolč.

'DETROIT, MICH.—As announced a fortnight ago, a new juvenile circle was born here in our "Motor City" on Jari. 2!), 1040, beating ¡the baby New Year of 1941 by two whole day», A very close race j/rtjeed, so we salute the "Juvenih Spirits" of Detroit and place them in the SNPJ regular spotlight,	-
We are fully aware of the fact that the beginning of anything la hard, but wl'h sufficient determination and ambition such as is often displayed in our ranka, we are certain that we will be successful in our undertaking. To all the circlet throughout the SNPJ world: WV would very much like to cooperate with all circles as in this wuy a better understanding and cooperation can be had among ihe members and managers. Our circle has a wonderful future,and we'll be on top soon judging from the enthusiasm shown among our members. Never before had I the pleasure of talking to a more interested group than our hoys and girls.
Flr«t on the list of activities will be an Ice skating party, a ¡trip to the Ford plant and rotunda as well as to other points of Interest. Reports have It that .the first circle affair will be a "bombing danco," featuring the Vadnal Quartet of Cleveland, the exact date* 'to be announced later.
In order that we may hold the Interest of the juveniles, lot's give them encouragement and plenty of pep and cooperation. Will you back them 100%? Detroit can do It, and we will all bo prou4of our circle whan it begins functioning properly, with your support.
Carda have again been mailed to all juvenile». Our membership la up to' the 24a mark and in a short .time will hi> 2R0. With this number we certainly can do a remarkable job' in making the circle strong. We more than welcome all juveniles to our monthly meetings which are being held the last Sunday of cach month at the SND on John R. The first meeting of '41 will be Jan. 26. Sun-day. All members are urged Jto be prasont aa this meeting will ba very important.

Beware of Sneaky Propaganda!
By Ivan Mol«fc, Editor
By "sneaky propaganda" we mean Communist, Nazi, Fascist, Coughlinlte or any other kind of anti-democratic propaganda which is sneaking thmy?h the back door or, even through the window into a labor ufiionja fraternal lodge, or a cultural organization of any note. —^ - -r-—I——^---- ■ • x-
This propaganda is the greatest danger to ua in these tumultuous times. . .
Direct Nazi or Fascist propaganda may not be so accessible to our lodges, although the individual members might be affected here and there, but Communist propaganda is the greatest poison, the more so because it is now clothed in the snow-w<hite tunic of innocence and masked behind th« angelic face of love for "democracy."	,
The American Communist party went underground not long ago, and the members of that party disappeared as if by magic— only to reappear, not as Communists but as most zealous "fighters for democracy" in all kind« of ¿abor and progressive organizations in vttfiich they assiduously push themselves to the leading and most strategic position«.
Beware of th«m, Brothers and Sisters! Your lodge may oot be immune to them. We know from experience. Watch for them! If left free-handed they may disrupt your lodge and uae your money and yourselves for their ainister, illegal and anti-demo-cratic purposes; they may cauae ypu trouble, a bad name in which case a lodge, or any other organization, will he a target for persecution from authorities.
Our Society haa a great responaibility to its members; therefore, it cannot afford to lend itself to all kinds of political schemes. And if there ia any political air ¡at all worthy of our Society's support it is DEMiJCRACY which is, besides free thought, our cornerstone from the beginning.
But our democracy is not the "democracy" the Communist big mouths are selling. Their "democracy" means dictatorship; it means either Stalin or Hitler or -both, and either brand of dictatorship is not wanted by, the American people.
To he on guard, and to test their sincerity, whenever and wherever they "mobilize for i>eace" or »hout against the American defense measures and about Roosevelt's "dictatorship'', juat ask them whether there is at present any Communist peace movement in Germany and whether the Soviet dictatorship is promoting peace by helping Hitler with the war good»I
To he sure, we are not accusing any one of being a propagandist of the subversive sort, but we know there are many among us who are being misled by sleek "fellow-travelers" outside our Society; or they are fooled by reading the fellow-traveler sheets masquerading as true lafbor organs. These misguided friends and brothers of ours should rufc their eyes and wake up before it is too late. Moreover, they should learn to distinguish between democratic labor rights and poisonous totalitarian propaganda.
We firmly aasipne that the great majority of the SNPJ members is on the side of democracy; - further, it is a fact that o*ir Society is first of all a fraternal organization, and its lodges and federations should not waste time with outside matters of controversial nature.
Finally, if and when any pronouncement of the SNPJ ie needed in case of a great American emergency or crisis, let it he left to the Supreme Board, which legally represents the Society between conventions ¿nd speaks in its name, and not to individual lodges or federations for official statement^	<r	»
We hope that this brotherly advice will be clearly understood and heeded 'by all to whom the unchecked progress and integrity of this Society ia at heart.

SUPPORT ALL SNPJ ACTIVITIES!
Comet»' New* COMETS are preparing to begin February entertainment in grand style by sponaoring a dance on Saturday, Feb. 1st. A great time ia anticipated in the Slovene Hall, Universal, Pa., for that evening, and we have diaplayed the welcome shingle everywhere to bring together hundreds of our friends. Paul Dolinar and his orchestra will be featured, ancTIt Is reported that they produce excellent music of both the Slovene and modern kind. Keep the date in mind, and be sure to come out this way that evening,*
Following the COMETS' meeting on Jan. 6, Frank J. Previa and the writer celebrated their birthdays by inviting the members to a party in the downstairs hall. This was continued at thq home of this scribe following the bowling of the COMETS' bowling league on Monday night, Jan. flth. There wa« a good time had on both nights.
All COMET members are reminded , that our next regular meeting will j be held on Sunday, Feb.. 2, in the Slovene Hall, beginning at 7 p. m.
Our Feb. 1st Dance Committee re- i ports that they have arranged for, another dance on Feb. 16. This will be the final dance of the COMETS until sometime in April. So, all out on Feb. 1 and (Feb! 16.
The COMETS' Bowling League Is" continuing to meet with success every Monday night in the local Moose Alleys. The first half was ended on Monday, Jan. 20. For details of standings, read "Duck Pin Dope" by Joecph (Shorty) Dertovie.
Newt find Views News of the formation of a new English speaking lodge in Brownsville, Pa., was gratifying indeed. Western Pennsylvanians, particularly those near that city, should watch for the announcement of their first social event, and arrange to attend. Congratulations and best wishes to the new lodge, its officers and members.
Freedom of the press, the principle included in the Bill of Rights, and alao included in our SNPJ Declaration of Principles, is being utilised to the fullcat in regard to the 1941 wall calendars. Many of our members are yielding to no one their right to criticixe what they believe was a shameful selection. From
our observation in Universal, and, in Western Pennsylvania generally, the small wall calendar has made a striking impression on the y0UBf folks, and the exact opposite is true of the old folks. In fact, many youae people have said that the ,,R.lUre would be framed, and we know 0f one case where this has been done On the other hand, there is evidence of the old folks refusing to take one to their homes. It should be born« in mind that the name ought to be much more prominently displayed if the calendar is to be a real advertisement. Regarding the larger calendar, it is much too small to at-tract much attention. Reporting on the Slovene Hall in Universal, the space that was ^ordinarily reserved for SNPJ'a large calendar is thia year displaying a very large calendar of a competitive Slovene fraternal organization. But there is a reasonable hope that calendars will not be an issue next year.
The selection of Frank Rezek as chairman of the executive committee in charge of arrangement» for the Second Ohio SNPJ Day is a high compliment to him, and confirms our long* belief that he is an able per. son. We're sure the affair is in good hands.

Thit and That:—Approximately 00 friends (many Spirits) gathered at the home of John and France» Zimmerman, surprising Ben and Tillie Ducote Jan. 11 with a 10th wedding anniversary party. Never before has the writer witnessed two people so stunned with a surprise. With the "Spirit*" around, miracles can happen, eh? Nevertheless, every-1 one present had a grand time and' the many beautiful gifts they received no doubt will bring pleasant memories. In behalf of the Spirits, to our two fine members, let's say, lots of luck, with hopes you will en-' joy many happy yeara together.

From 1090 until 1770 the Philadelphia Quakers were passing increasingly atrlngju' lawa against their members importing or buying »lave*.
In 1700, Samuel Sewall, Massachu-M'tta Judge, printed a tract againkt slavery.

In 1773 Patrick Henry paid tribute to the Quaker» for th.lr p«r»lst.>nt efforts to secure abolition.
In 1774 at the first general Congress of the CoLini.s In Philadelphia, Jeffiirsou said: "The abolition of alav* ety Is the greatest objvet of d.alr« in these colonies."

In 1791 Thoma* Jefferson In hi* "Notes un Virginia" mo*t r.trongly condemned slavery. He even propoaod « law, in Virginia, which was wjveted, to make all fre« who were born after th« passage of th. act.
In I7H4 Jefferson drew up an ordinance for tho government of th« Western territory and Included an article for prohibiting slavery aft«r 1H00. it was atilck.n out then, but In 1797 the Ordlnanc. was passed ■Vhlch prohibited ilavery In that territory.

Comrade Lady Bowlers Beat CFU Champions
CLEVELA ND. — Bowling tournament time is one« sgsin with us. Throughout the country SNPJ bowlers are preparing for our sections! as we!! as the national tournaments. The ¿»rises, fun snd friends made at ihese tournsments are more than enough to Compensate for the initial outlay of money and time, Our Ckreland SNPJ lady bowlers think that the benefit derived is greater than the output. The result is that every one of our Comrade lady bowlers Is making plans to sttend these tournsments. Money is being raised snd the bowling arms a re being Umbered up.
Mstch gsraes are being scheduled. On Jan. 13, the Comrades met and vanquished the former champions of tbc> Croatian Fraternal Union, the Pioneer Lassies.
Although ths Comrade« won by 3 pins, neither team really bowled as well as they could. TT»e Comrade team composed of Ann Golob, Pauline Ross, Mollie Koren, Fran Spilt and Jean Beljan rolled 2202 while the Plo-neer team of Anne Yurkovich, Mary Celisic, Vrhdm Eppich, Mary Sarapa, Anne York rolled 2199. Anne York with her 688 series was high for all bowlers. The writer with her 494 series wss second high and lad the Comrsds tesm. Fran Bplk gave able assistance with her 46tt series. The gsmv scores were:

Mollie Koren .......147	140	1241
Frsn Spik ..........147	161	171
Joan Beljan ........lftf	1S6	lftft
204 and 181. The 204 was rolled by Psuline «pik. It was the first 200 gsme for Pauline this year. Her sister Fran rolled 1S1 aa the team lost 2 games to the Comrade No. 2 tesm. The pace makers of the Comrade 2 team were Anne Golob with 483 and Pauline Ross with 4S0.
The Comrade 1 team took three games from the Straggler 2 as Jean Beljan and Mollie Koren regained their bowling form and bowled 46ft and 4S3 respectively. The pacers for the losing team were Josephine Hoffert and Lucille Jeram with 360 snd 304.
The Straggler I team gained a first place lie by taking 3 games from their own Straggler 3 team. The big pin toppler Was Hermine Zupancic with a 4*6 series. She was ably aaaiated with Josephine Tortuic's 412 aeriea. Theress Jeric bowling far under her average was high for the Straggler 3 with a 302 series. The Straggler 3 team was hsndicspped by 2 blinds on their team.

The pamphlet lays a basis for future constructive thought and action on this burning national problem. 2) "The Federal Government and Functional Democracy," by Harry W. La idler. This pamphlet takes up the discusslan that is in the minds of the American people today, "Should the Power of the Federal Government Be Increased or Decreased ?" 8} "Cradle of Life," by one of the most popular autihort of the day, Louis Adamic. Like el! his other books since "The Native's Return," this novel has been widely read and acclaimed by the American reading public. 4) "Democracy vs. Dictatorship," by Norman Thomas. In this work, Thomas discusses the issue of democracy against dictatorship, bringing out the virtues of one as opposed to thf brutalities of the other.
In addition, lodges whose membership is composed of both youth and adult members, were sent a number of copies of the book which was specialty published by the Educational *Bur«au this year and sent to all senior lodges—"Sencs preko pqti," by one of the moat popular Slovene short-story writers of the day, Ivan Jontet.
Each lodge also received copies of tha Jt&F pamphlet, recently published, which seta forth the purpose and function of the JSF Educational Bureau.
There egn be little doubt that thf Bureau's faction for the paat year is a creditable tfne, and that it will be satisfactorily received. -
Recently, when the Educational Bureau appealed to hundreds of fraternal lodges thraout the country to join this centralised cultural and dra. matic organisation, it did so on ths utrength of its splendid past accomplish menta.
To most people not familiar with the Educational Bureau, It is almost unbelievable that during the last 14 yesrs, It has distributed over 78,000 books and pamphlete of social slgnlfl-csnee, to Its affiliated organisations; that It has distributed hundreds of plays, dramas and other program material to both English speaking snd Slovene organisations, and that It has toured speakers into practically all of the main Slovene communities.
Backed by Its commendable record of the past, the Educational Bureau ia again Inviting aH fraternal, drams tic and cultural groups to consider ■erlously the servlee It offers- them.
For JSF Educational Bureau, JOSEPH DRASLER.

In her evasive snswer to my last article, Mary Jugg asks if 1 would sdvocste the adoption of the Russisn system here. What she really mean» to ask is, "Bro. Obluck, are you a "communist?" No, I am not and I nowhere suggested so in my article. I have been a member of only one political party, and that was the Socialist Psrty. I quit thst when it bees me clear to me that too many of the leaders were interested more in good paying jobs than in socialism. Todsy we find the opposite is true; it seems the good psying jobs slwsys come first. Mary Jugg, as Oscar Ameringer says, "quit looking ( through the big end of the telescope." . Put the smsll end of the telescope to your eye and look at the poll tax, I millions of unemployed, shsrecrop-1 pers, tenant farmers, etc., close to home. We hsve plenty to do here without sticking our noses in the Europesn mess.

St. Louis Lodge 107 to Stage Dance Feb- 8th
ST. LOUIS, MO,—SNPJ lodge 107 has decided..at its snnusl meeting thst all our regular meetings will be held on the fourth Friday of the month. Thejiext meeting will be Jan. 24 at 7:30 p. m. at which time the officers for 1941 will be installed.
As much as is expected from the officers, the members are requsted to attend the meetings regulsrly, take part in sll discussions and be informed whst is tsking place in the organisation, This will especially be an important year, as the convention is coming.
All the younger members are requested to attend the meetings, in that way we will convince the elders that we also are interested in the expansion of our great SNPJ. It is' evident that our parenta, the older members, hsve very little confidence in us. In order that we imay show and prove otherwise, we must become active and cooperate with our older members.
All members sre requsted to psy the sssessment on time, as only in that way can the Secretary work efficiently.
At the meeting on Jan. 24 we will have some entertainment and refreshments. Everybody please be present
The eommittee is also making plans for a barn dance which will be held on Feb. 8. There will be a prize for the best custom, and everybody must have some sign of a farmer or he will have to pay 10c. Our lodge is not sponsoring many dances and we hope to have a large crowd at this dance. An invitation is also extended to all local and nearby Slovene, Croatian and Serbian lodges to attend.

"Edged in Again"
OGLESBY, ILL.—I am opposed to anything that will get us into war. The present lease-lend plan is close enough. . In the last war our sympathies were worked on until we helped smash Kaiserism, and we are still suffering from the hangover of that spree. Now England is fighting Hitlerism and we are being edged in again.
Agreed that an English victory is more palstable thsn s Germsn one, how fsr should we go? I do not think we should put such trust in England as we did in the last war. If we get into this war the depression following is liable to end in dictatorship for the U. S. If we help knock out Germany again it won't mean a thing. Before Hitler there was the Kaiser, before Kaiser there was Bismarck and so on. If Hitler is beaten all will be quiet for a while but about 1060 or '70 the English will have to fight Schmaltslsm or a similar ism.
Help England? Certainly as long as we get something of equal value in return. Giving too much credit will put any butinessman out of business. We can only increase our air, sea and armed forces until it is not safe for any foreign country or combination of countries to try any mon-keyshines with us.

Household Hints
For msny reasons, it Is advisable to have a ceiling in the basement, bus since one of the principal reason* i* the fire precaution it offers, the ceil* ing should bs t»f to fire-resistant material such as plaster or plaster board. If the basement does not hsvs s ceiling, it is wise to see that it at least has "fire stops," wood plugs to fit the openings between the inner and outer walls, that will prevent the spread of fire to the upper stories should it start ln~H»e basement.

people ss it is now spending for wsr? By that I mean, can we get the government to construct homes and useful things for the people after the war is over so thst we will not run into another awful depression? Can we ask the government to help dispose of the people who are responsible for these recurring wara and set up s brotherhood qf man in its place? Can we ask our government to make certain that all employable unemployed <will be given jobe after the war? Can we aak our government that the share-croppers and the tenant farmers will be permitted to make a reasonably decent living with their continuance to till the soil? Can the government adjust the social system in such a way as to wipe out the social ills of the present system? If the answer to these questions is yes, then we would have reason to go out and fight. But if it is aimply to get Hitler, ss they got the Kaiser in 1917, then every dime spent and every boy's life in the struggle is wasted just as the lives of the many millions were wasted in the last war and the money spent for useless armaments can never be repaid. It is one thing to talk about sending the boys to war, and it is another thing to talk about destroying the system which breeds and causes all wars. If we can dispose of the system by fighting, then I am for it. There is nt^hance to do it with the present rum's, „j

"Negotiated Peace"
TRINIDAD, COLO.—Having read Sister Anne A. Svazich's article in the Jan. 8 Prosveta, I wish to say that I disagree with her views as regards Senator Wheeler's address in which he opposed President Roosevelt's stsnd on the present war situation.
I, for one, think that Sen. Wheeler wants a negotiated peace, which means a dictated peace by Hitler, and we all know what kind of "peace" he gave the conquered peoples of Europe. Would we want to live in such slavery as these unfortunate peoples— millions of them—are forced to live in today? Most of the nations of Europe are at a point of starvation— a blessing brought upon them by Nazi slavery. Reports- trickling out of Germany and the occtfpied territory speak loud enough of what is happening to the peoples under the Nazi Iron hoel. They have no rights whatever, only submission. The Nazi brute force is today the real msster of Europe.
In the event thst Britsin is defest-ed, thst's just whst would hsppen to the British—then America would be the next victim. Therefore, our President is right by aiding Britain all he can, because America's safety depends on British victory. I am convinced that President Roosevelt is not meddling in other people's affairs; I think that he is sincerely trying to keep this country out of war. But no man is able to keep a country out of war when real danger is threatening. Then it is our duty to defend ourselves before it's too Iste. Therefore, the question of war or peace rests with the aggressors who, we all know, will stop at nothing unless they are checked and defeated.
By aiding Britain we are he|D the English to defeat the sggr^H and once they are defeau-d ,„ ^ not threaten our freedom any President Roosevelt hss dor* (9j for aH of us; bis hesrt is with tU common people; he understand* ZL problems.
