Turčija bo rabila ameriški denar za vojaške namene
Skušala bo dobiti posojilo za ekonomski
razvoj od mednarodne banke.
Akcija proti grški komunistični stranki
London. 13. maja. — General Ismet Inonu, turški predsednik, je naznanil, da bo Turčija potrosila ameriško posojilo $100,000,-000 za vojaške namene, zaeno pa je razkril, da bo skušala dobiti posojilo od mednarodne banke za razvoj svoje ekonomije.
V telegrafskem razgovoru je Inonu poudaril, da je Turčija proti diskuzijam, da bi katera koli zunanja sila dobila bazo ob strategični Dardanelski ožini, in drugih vprašanjih, nanašajočih se na integralnost turškega ozemlja ali suverenitele.
Inonu je dejal, da je Turčija za kooperacijo z Grčijo in prijateljske odnošaje z vsemi državami Arabske lige. Vprašanja, ki so mu bila stavljena, in njegovi odgovori so bili:
Ali morete povedati, v kakšne namene bo potrošeno posojilo. katero bo Turčija dobila od Amerike?
Posojilo bo šlo za vojaške namene. Turčija bo vprašala za posojilo za razvoj svoje ekonomije in rekonstrukcijo mednarodno banko.
Svet je bil opozorjen, da bo Turčija zavrgla sistem ene politične stranke in osvojila sistem več strank. Ali se sedaj sestavljajo drugi programi, katere lahko razkrijete?
Prizadevanja, da se v Turčiji razvijejo demokratične ustanove in pogoji demokratičnega življenja, so resna in odkrita. Dosegli »mo že velike uspehe. Demokratična evolucija se bo nadaljevala brež prekinjenja, dokler ne bo dobila idealne oblike.
Kako si predstavljate bodočnost Dardanelske ožine? Ali bo Turčija predložila konferencam specifični načrt o vprašanju pre-
boda te ožine?
Turčija je že povedala v notah. ki so bile dostavljene sovjet-vladi v avgustu in oktobru lanskega leta, da je sedanja administracija ožine pravična in najboljši sistem ravnotežja, ki ^dovoljuje vse stranke.. Ako se katera sila ne strinja z admini-«tracijo, lahko apelira za sklicanje konference v svrho sprememb v soglasju s proceduro, kl je bila osvojena na konven-c:ji v Montreuxu.
Ali obstoja armenski problem v Turčiji sedaj?
Armenskega vprašanja ni, ker J»» turški državljani imajo enake Pravice in ni verskih in plemenskih razlik.
Zozirom na dejstvo, da je Tur-| 'K™1* veliko vlogo v razvo-

Ju balkanskih držav, ali je mož-da b<> igrala isto viogo v

Atene. Grčija. 13. maja.—Parlamentu je bil predložen zakonski načrt, da se grška komunistična stranka razglasi za nelegalno. Načrt je predložilo 30 poslancev pod vodstvom Styliano-sa Gonacasa, podpredsednika monarhistične vlade. Ta nagla-ša, da program komunistične stranke je v nasprotju z interesi države in da je stranka za str-moglavljenje sedanje vlade s silo.
Poslanci, ki so predložili načrt, predstavljajo najbolj eks-tremne elemente v monarhistič-ni stranki. Sprejetje načrta bi potisnilo Ameriko v položaj podpiranja vlade, ki se hoče po-služiti skrajnega sredstva v prizadevanjih za uničenje komunizma v Grčiji. Nobena druga zapadna država se še ni odločila za uporabo takega sredstva.

POROČILO TAJNICE DRUŠTVA 14 SNPJ
Norih Chlcago. III— Že leto dni se pripravljam, da opitem malo kronike našega društva it. 14 SNPJ.
V letu 1946 nam je bila bela žena vsaj deloma naklonjena. I/ naše srede je iztrgala eno članico in tri Člane, dOČim nam je I. 1945 vzela šest članov. Meseca aprila je umrla Ivana
|ces Boštjan pa je bilo izročeno j $13.79. Pri tem delu sta ml pomagali z naaveti in pri nabiranju prej omenjene vsote Antonija Bezek in Anna Mahnič. Delo v kuhinji pa je oskrbela sestra Jennie Skrbeč, za kar se vsem prav lepo zahvaljujem
Pregovor pravi, da za dežjem posije sonce. Na društvenem polju pa smo napredovali nekako po srednji poti. Izdali smo ne-
Cvetnic. Ona je bila ustanovi- kaj prestopnih listov. Nekateri teljica društva 119 SNPJ, k J so šli v sončne kraje lepe Cali-društvu Si. 14 pa je prestopila fornije, štirje iz odraslega od-1. 1918. Drugi je preminul Frank delka in dva iz mladinskega, tri I Podboj, in sicer 7. oktobra. Po- članice pa so si izbrale tovariše
Dve leti pozneje
Te dni je poteklo dve leti, odkar je bila v Evropi zaključena najbolj krvava drama, največja tragedija, ki v barbarizmu in razdejffvanju nima primere v vsej zgodovini človeštva. Zgodovina Evrope, kjer je stekla zibel zapadni civilizaciji in kapitalizmu, je sicer krvava in prepletena z barbarizmom. Videla je divjanje Hunov in Gengis Kana in Turkov in srednjeveške inkvizicije, občutila je grozote 30-letne vojne In nešteto drnRih masnih pokollj in tiranije, toda takega barbarizma in takega ruz-dejanja kot mu Je bila priča v zadnji vojni ni človeštvo še nikdar prej videlo. Ustna izročila o krvoločnosti Hunov in Turkov so se prenašala dolge generacije, sploh do naših dnih, ko so i nas v otroških letih z njimi strašile mamice, kadar smo bili poredni, toda človeških klavnic in mučilnic a la Dachau, Belsen. Buchenwald itd. itd. svet še nikdar prej videl ni. Te moderne grozote, kakor tudi razbijanje mest z "block busterji" —in atomskimi bombami!—je porodila tako zvana krščanska civilizacija šele v naših dneh. Napravila je nov rekord tudi v barbarizmu.	f " i
Ko človek o vsem tem premišljuje, se ne čudi, ako se Evropa tako počasi dviga iz svojih razvalin, iz velikega kaosa, ki je nastal po zdrobitvi tretjega rajha in po preplavitvi kontinenta po aimadah "zmagovalcev". Potres Je ftll prevelik, razdejanje pre-ogromno, babilonski kaos povsem neizbežen, da bi se mogla Evropa potegniti iz njega v kratkih dveh letih. Sploh jo bo vzelo še najmanj deset, dvajset let predno bo mogla zopet priti do nor malnega življenja. Nekatere države, na primer Nemčijo, najbrže še dalj.
kojnik je bil član nad 35 let. Bil je zvest član društva in jednote ter rad pomagal, kjer koli je mogel. Bil je vesele narave, zato so ga vsi radi imeli, kar je tudi pričal njegov veličastni sprevod na pokopališče.
Tretji pa se je ločil iz te doline solza Frank Penca. Umrl je 14. oktobra. K društvu H. 14 je prestopil 1. 1920 od drultva št. 89, katerega Je bil ustanovni član. Pokojnik Je tudi nrtnogo deloval na društvenem polju in pri socialističnem klubu, dokler ga ni bolezen potisnila v pasivnost.
Četrti pa je umrl Mike Borov-slc, in sicer 4. decembra. Pokojnik je bil po rodu Hrvat in člen jednote 37 let. V javnosti se ni veliko udeleževal, kajti bolezen se ga je držala iz mladih let. Par dni pred njegovo smrtjo sem ga Obiskala in izrazil Je željo, da naj vsa njegova družina ostane v jednoti do smrti. Bil je hvaležen društvu, kajti tedaj, ko so bila naša društva še mlada in resnično bratska, so prirejala veselice za družine, ki So bile obložene z boleznijo. Ena teh družin je bila pokojnikova. V tem letu, 23. januarja, pa je
Evropa bi se seveda hitreje postavila na noge, ako bi funkcio-' ""V"1®, ***** društvenica Mary nirala UNRRA vsaj še dve leti. Ampak je bila likvidirana, ker 5*bn*k; ¿ anica društva 11» bN-sta tako hoteli Amerika in Anglija, posebno pa prva. In to kljub ™ Pnkojnica je bolehala nekaj temu, da bi bilo tudi v interesu obeh dežel, da bi se Evropa Čim prej gospodarsko postavila na noge. Sicer je resnica, da sta UNRRA v ogromni večini financirali ti deželi, posebno Amerika, ki je prispevala 72'* denarnih sredstev. Ampak v Ameriki smo srečni, da smo lahko to storili, kajti tukaj nismo občutili nobenih vojnih grozot, nobenega razdejanja, marveč se je dežela med vojno razvila v še veliko močnejšega gospodarskega giganta. % U Guardla si je kot načelnik UNRRA zelo prizadeval, da bi Jo obdržal pri življenju vsaj še eno, dve leti, toda vse njegovo piizadevanje je bilo zaman. In to kljub temu, da bi se tudi finančno breme Amerike zelo znižalo in bi bilo v resnici manjše kot bo zdaj, ako kongres sprejme "rellfni" načrt administracije. Po IjaCiuArdijevcm načrtu bi za najnujnejše potrebe zadostovala vsota $400 milijonov na leto za najbolj prizadete države in od te vsote bi Amerika prispevala le 40 ali 50 odstotkov. Ampak v VVashlngtonu niso o tem hoteli nič slišati, kajti imeli so svoj načrt, po katerem nameravajo uporabiti "relif" Za politične namene, v svrho "povver pol it les". In to kljub temu, da do ta igra stala deželo v dolarjih in centih mnogo več kot bi po LaGuardi-jevem načrtu, da o izgubi moralnega prestiža sploh ne govorimo, dasi bo ta izguba neprecenljiva. Slednje pri imperialistih seveda ne šteje.
Vse to je danes bob ob steno. Toda ne glede na želje In Cilje onih, ki danes usmerjajo amerilko politiko, notranjo In zunanjo, bo šel razvoj v razbiti in lačni Evropi po svoji poti naprej, sicer bolj počasi in v večjih agonijah, kot če bi oflcielna Amerika sku
šala simpatično razumevati ta razvoj in ga pomagala po svoje usmerjati v interesu vsega evropskega ljudstva, kar bi pomenilo tudi v interesu Amerike same.
Ampak v Washington!! nikakor no morejo ali nočejo razumeti, da je v velikih platnenih in agonijah zgorel tudi stari kapitt

Kr-dohrjev, ne atomskih l>omb, ne vojaštva, da bi mogla zopet pri- sto pokojne Mary Babnik je kra-klicati v življenje evropski kapitalizem in ga postaviti na noge. sil tudi venec z napisom "34 Postaviti bi tfa ne mogla na noge niti Evropa sama, čeprav bi Friends", v resnici pa je za ve-hotela. Ampak Evropa, namreč delavska Evropa tega tudi nec darovalo 40 prijateljic, krsto
"" sea. Civhe pa je krasil venec z na
let za srčno hibo. Pogreb se je vršil 23. januarja ob veliki udeležbi članstva in prijateljev. Ako pomislimo na hud mraz, ki je vladal tiste dni, je bil pogreb res zelo lep. Mnoge njene prijateljice so imele solzne oči, kajti nad mnogimi je ležala težka zavest, da je naselbina izgubila pridno delavko. Bila je skrbna mati šesterim otrokom, zp katere je morala sama trpeti dolga leta, da jih je vzgojila.
Pokojnica je bila velika prijateljica pokojne Frances Civhe, ki smo jo izgubili iz naše srede meseca julija 1944. Obe sta mnogokrat skupno delali za javno stvar, bodisi za društvo, Slovenski narodni dom, za zadružno prodajalno ali kako drugo stvar. Vrli članici sta tudi veliko delali v počast pri slavju zasluže nih delavcev. Splošno mnenje v naselbini je, da sta ti dve narodni in društveni delavki šli vse prerano v grob.
Kakor sem omenila, je imela pokojnica krasen pogreb, prav tako mrtvaški oder. Bilo je veliko cvetja od prijateljev, znancev in društev. Tudi odbor Sloven-
in se pridružile njihovemu društvu. Nič zato, samo da ostanejo pod okriljem SNPJ. Nekatere smo nadomestili v mesecu februarju, in glej šmenta, same fante od fare v starosti med 21. in 26. letom.
Tudi za druStveno blagajno Je bilo treba nekaj storiti. Prva prireditev, ki se je vršila v korist društvene blagajne, je dobro uspela. Vodile so jo seveda aktivne članice, namreč Mary Celarec, Frances Hodnik, Mary Brunet, Anna Kranjc in Jennie Govekar.
Druga prireditev pa se je vršila 1. septembra skupno s tretni društvi, ki je dala polne roke dela, zaerto pa zelo dobro uspe la. Tretja prireditev pa se je vršila 7. decembra v počast čla-nom-veteranom. Pri tej priredbi so sodelovala vsa društva, ki zborujejo v Slovenskem narodnem domu. Ta priredba je bila najuspešnejša v moralnem oziru.
V tem letu pa je naše društvo priredilo domačo zabavo, in sicer 22. februarja. To zabavo so imeli voditi naši člani, in res so se precej zavzeli ter prodali epo število vstopnic, ampak brez naših članic ne gre in tako se jim je pridružila pri prodaji vstopnic Frances Hodnik, ki jih e prodala 50, pri ostanem delu pa so jim Omagale Mary Brunet, Frances Zupec In Mary Arh. Hvala vsem, ki so darovali razne predmete v korist društvene blagajne. Pri tem pa se je najbolje izkazala sestra Apolonijja Ogrin s krasnim ročnim delom, ki je prineslo društveni blagajni nad $20.
Sedaj pa končam z mojim poročilom. Naj Še omenim, da me Je že več čitateljev Prosvete vprašalo, zakaj se kaj ne oglasim našem časopisu. Vzrokov je več, eden med njimi pa je, da tudi jaz rajši čitam kot pišem, drugi pa velika zaposlenost.
Naj omenim, da nisem prijateljica tistih dopisov, ki so kritični proti stari domovini. Kadar zagleda beli dan tak dopis bi najrajši zletela kot ptica k uredniku v Chicago in mu pove dala par gorkih, ker pusti take dopise v javnost. Prosveta je tudi meni všeč, odkar piše bolj simpatično o novi Jugoslaviji. Zelo rada pa čitatn pisma iz »tare domovine, ki jih sorodniki priobčujejo v Prosveti. Najraje bi videla, da bi bil list dnevno napolnjen s takimi pismi in sli kami. Po pravici povem, danes nima Prosveta mesta z« pečjo, kot ga Je imela večkrat pod prejšnjim urednikom.

ČLANSTVU IN NAROČNIKOM PROSVETE V UPOŠTEVANJE
Da bomo lažje pravilno vodili imenik vsega članstva SNPJ in da bodo redno prejemali Prosve-to—dnevnik in tednik—vsi člani, ki so upravičeni do njega, je nujno potrebno, da VSI člani in članice pomagajo k temu in sicer s tem, da sporoče bpoisi po tajniku ali pa sami VSE spremembe naslova na upravništvo Prosvete.
Kot znano, že več let pošto j i sklep konvencije in glavnega odbora, da se pri naročnini na dnevnik sme prišteti tednik od enega do petih članov, tako da potem en član družine dobi dnevnik. Ker je to Še vedno v veljavi, je zelo važno, da se tako skupno družinsko naročeni člani drže tega sklepa, kakor je bil upostavljen, to je, da sme prišteti pri naročnini na dnevnik od enega do pet članov z NJIH DOVOLJENJEM, pa čeprav spadajo k raznim društvom. Nikakor pa sa ne sme prišteti članov brez njih dovoljenja, kakor tudi tfe ¿lakov, Id lire Izven družino, ped drugo streho, to ]• na drugeth naslovu. To ni dovoljeno vsled tega, ker bi potem ti člani ne prejemali tednika Prosvete, ki je zanje nujno potreben, da se pouče in vedo, kaj se godi v jednoti. Dolžnost vsakega člana je, da čita glasilo svoje organizacije?
Torej kakor hitro se kateri onih članov, ki so prišteti pri skupni naročnini na dnevnik, odseli od svoje družine in želi svoje glasilo na svoj novi naslov, naj o tem takoj obvesti uprav ništvo, da se stvar uredi. Dolžnost onega, ki je imel takega čla-na prištetega pri svoji naročni ni, pa je, da nas o tem obvesti in doplača razliko, ki je s tem nastala pri njegovi naročnini.
Vas vljudno prosimo, da upo števate to in nam pomagate držati boljši red pri razpošiljanju lista.	1 " r

POROČILO O IZLETNIŠKIH PROSTORIH 8NPJ
Cleveland. O.—Kot je bilo po-ročano na naš» izredni seji, se bo pričelo z delom za našo novo dvorano na farmi SNPJ v kratkem času. Naši odborniki so se veliko trudili, da so dobili dovoljenje. V kratkem se bo tudi ¡zravnalo prostore za parkanje avtomobilov, prav tako prostor za igranje žoge, kakor tudi igri-ice za otroke.
Društvo Comrades je samo na bavilo predmete za otroško igrl-Ice. obenem pa je to društvo obljubilo nekaj denarja v ta namen. Predsednik tega društva je Anton Kerže. On bo prihodnji mesec prevzel mesto upravitelja farme. Ker je priden dru It vem k. ni nobenega dvoma, da bo delal v korist naše farme
Naš tajnik Frank Pvke pa je poročal na seji. da je naša blagajna precej osušena (razumlj; vo. tz stavbinskega fonda se ne
ke, tako da se bo plačalo za delo za izravnanje prostorov. To de lo je imelo biti izvršeno že pred leti, ampak se je moralo vsled vojne odložiti. Upamo, da bodo društva upoštevala naso prošnjo.
Na seji našega društva Svobode 748 SNPJ smo darovale v ta namen $25, kar je lepa vsota za naše majhno društvo. Že poj>rej pa sirto darovale $50 v stavbin-ski fond. Naše članice s'e me kar bojijo, ker vedno prosim za SANS, za farmo in druge namene. Na misel mi pridejo besede, ki jih je pred leti zapisal Milan Medvešek (ko je tudi prosil na sejah za farmo): "Saj veste, da zase osebno ne bi prosil."
Pri našem društvu smo pred tedni izgubili članico Jennie Sever. Zapušča štiri hčere. Bila je tajnica mladinskega pevskega zbora več let.
Kakor vsako leto, tako farmski odbor tudi letos prireja piknik prvo nedeljo v juniju. Ker bo to prvi piknik v sezoni, se nadejamo, da nas obiščite v velikem številu. Ker se bo iste dneve vršila Sansova konvencija, nas bodo posetili najbrže tudi zunanji gostje.

PREDVAJAN JÉ FILMOV IN PLESNA ZABAVA
Madiaon. 111.—Obveščam članstvo društev 230, 250 in 763, da so odborniki sklenili, da priredimo skupno priredbo, na kateri se bodo predvajali filmi o aktivnostih v SNPJ. Na razpolago bo morda tudi kakšen drug film.
Predstava se bo vršila 18. maja v Slovaški dvorani, 14 Iowa st. Stroške se bo krilo iz društvenih blagajn, zato bo vstopnina prosta. Pripeljite s seboj tudi svoje prijatelje, posebno še mladi naraščaj. Po predvajanju premičnih slik bo sledil ples, za katerega bo igral tamburaški orkester, ki ga vodi Joseph Tros-ley. On je prepeval krasne pesmi na hrvaškem radijskem programu.
Torej na svidenje dne 18. maja v Slovaški dvorani, začetek ob pol treh. Pridite, ne bo vam
žal!

Pred važno
Valim rojakom je men$ia že vsem znano, da je bil pred kratkim j klic za drugo redno konvencijo Slovenskega ameriškega i eca sveta, ki bo zadnja dva dni tega meseca v Slovenskem inem domu v Clevelandu. Vršila se bo torej v prav tistem t in dvorani, kjer smo ameriški Slovenci pred nekako štirimi
mestu 111	> _ ____________ .,
® i in pol Obdržavali svoj prvi
¿rodni kongres, iz katerega je
nastal SANS.
Torej je samo še dobra dva
tedna do tega našega važnega narodnega zborovanja. Našo
drugo konvencijo čaka mnogo važnih problemov — problemov dalekosežnega pomena in bo za-t0 ta konvencija zelo važna, v nekaterih ozirih lahko celo bolj važna kot je bil naš narodni kongres. vsekako pa bolj važna kot se na splošno misli.
*	Eden najbolj važnih problemov, ki pride pred to konvencijo in o katerem bo treba temeljito razpravljati in narediti pametne in dobro premišljene zaključke, tvori vprašanje bodočnosti SANSa; to je, dali^ž bomo obdržali še naprej ali ne. Kot se sliši, je precej rojakov mnenja, da je s tem, kar smo storili za staro domovino politično s pomožno akcijo ter zbrali denar za dečje bolnišnice v starem kraju, bilo storjeno že vse, kar se je v danih razmerah storiti dalo, da je SANS s tem izvršil svojo misijo, v bodoče pa nam taka organizacija ne bo ve£ potrebna.
Rojaki, ki tako mislijo, imajo najbrž dober namen; nekateri, ce ne vsi, so do sedaj lojalno podpirali SANSovo delo in gmotno prispevali za našo obrambo in pomožno akcijo, zakar jim gre čast in priznanje, vendar pa je njih naziranje glede bodoče potrebe za tako organizacijo zgrešeno in napačno utemeljeno. Resnica je, da smo ameriški Slovenci od vsega začetka, kar smo v tej deželi, čutili potrebo za organizacijo, ki bi nas narodno in duševno vsaj nekoliko vezala, in potom katere bi imeli potrebne kulturne in morebitne druge stiko z našo staro domovino. In mnogo smo jo pogrešali. Stara Avstrija se je brigala s^mo za Nemce, z Nemci so držali tukajšnji diplo-matje dobre vezi, nas pa še poznati niso hoteli, kakor ne, da so Slovenci tudi narod in slovenščina kaj drugega kot jezik hlapcev in dekel.
Pozneje, ko je po prvi svetovni vojni bila ustanovljena država Jugoslovanov in so bili Slovenci uključeni kot enakopravni del te države, je bilo spočetka nekoliko boljše, nekateri jugoslovanski konzuli so poskusili in se začeli nekoliko zanimati za nas, toda to ni trajalo dolgo. Režimi so se tam pogosto spreminjali in z njimi razmere in odnošuji s slabega zmeraj »a slabše. Ostali smo brez potrebnih stikov in s tem mnogo zamudili. Kajti v starem kraju ** J1' po narodnem osvobojenju, dasi pod težkimi finančnimi in političnimi razmerami, naglo razvijala književnost in umetnost, s katero bi se lahko obogatile naše knjižnice in jo izkoristile naše kulturne ustanove, j" so že davno prej vse izčrpa-1( m take reči težko pogrešale.

potrebo za čutili tudi v e smemo misliti pre-na to, da se staramo, ali da mlajša generacijo ne bo '•»'»mala /a te stvari.

Naša y skrbeti, da bo naša ► - n« racija o vnem tem pravilno poučena in 'm" dosegli g pomočjo ^'organizacije, kakor je
movini $ANSa v bodoče najtjrž res ne bomo več potrebovali. Saj pa tudi ni nikjer rečeno, da je samo to njegovo delo in SANSa tudi nismo za to ustanovili. Prej ali slej pa nam \>o organizacija prišla spet prav za obrambno delo. Kajti prej ali slej mora priti do ponovnih pogajanj s sosedi in revidiranje meje, ki so jo zavezniki tako krivično odmerili za slovensko ljudstvo. Prej ali slej se mora ta krivica popraviti, mi bomo spet poklicani, da posredujemo in pomagamo, pri vladi v Washingtonu pa menda tudi ne bodo zmeraj samo Slovanom sovražni ljudje kot so očivldno sedaj. Naše posredovanje bo lahko kaj zaleglo, če bomo imeli dobro organizacijo, pa je že zato potrebno, da naš SANS ostane aktiven še naprej.
Ako smo čutili potrebo za tako organizacijo leta nazaj, oziroma za časa starih avstrijskih in jugoslovanskih vlad, ki se jim ni zdelo vredno, da bi malo pogledale za svojimi izseljenci in se pobrigale, kako nam je in kaj potrebujemo, moramo logično čutiti potrebo toliko bolj sedaj, ko je v starem kraju prišla temeljita sprememba. Ameriški Slovenci smo domala vsi delavci in kot taki naravno simpatizira-mo^ sedanjo vlado, ki jo v resnici ljudska in v interesu delavstva. Če smo čutili potrebo za stike za časa kronani h vladarjev in druge lene gospode, moramo logično čutiti toliko bolj sedaj, ko je ljudstvo vzelo vlado v svoje roke in pregnalo i7 dežele vso domačo in tuje ničvredno gospodo, ki je največ kriva, da smo mi morali po svetu.
Kot znano, se oblasti nove Jugoslavije veliko zanimajo za nas in tudi poskušajo ustanoviti potrebne stike z nami. Naravno je, da tudi oni pričakujejo, da bomo ostali organizirani ter po-radi tega ohranili SANS, ki bc živo aktiven in sodeloval z njimi.'
Naša dolžnost je, da pospešujemo prijateljstvo med ameriškim in jugoslovanskim ljudstvom, da se spet ustanovijo ugodni odnošaji med vladama v Washirigtonu in Belgradu, ter navežejo dobri trgovski stiki. Jugoslavija bo gotovo še potrebo vala razne stroje in druge reč iz Amerike, ameriške industrije pa importirale razne produkte iz Jugoslavije. Tam bodo imel na prodaj razne posebnosti, ka kor je hercegovski tobak, olje jugoslovanska slivovka. dalma tinska vina, žirska kekljariji itd. Vse to se bolj efektivne vrši, če je dobro organizirano ir naš SANS bo lahko v veliko po moč pri tem, kakor bo lahko pri organiziranju izletov v Jugoslavijo in od tam v Ameriko itd.
Vse to in še več stvari, ki niso tu navedene, govore odločno za to, da SANS ostane in posluje po začrtanem programu naprej. Čas pa bo prinesel še druge potrebe in posla za aktivnost take organizacije pod dobrim vodstvom bo lahko dovolj.
Navsezadnje pa nam je tudi tukaj potrebna ena skupna organizacija. Naše delavsko pro
svetno in kulturno delo je več ali manj disorganizirano in zanemarjeno. Prej ali slej bo treba zbrati vse take sile pod napredno organiziranim vodstvom in ni bolj prikladne organizacije za to kot je naš SANS.
Ampak če se odločimo, da SANS obdržimo, mu moramp poskrbeti tudi za stalne dohodke. Kajti mi zahtevamo, da bo tudi v bodoče živahno aktiven in delaven, kar pa je v zvezi s stroški, ki jih z nesigurnimi dohodki kot so bili zadnje čase, v bodoče ne bo mogoče kriti. Podružnice in razna SANSu naklonjena društva se bodo morala obvezati za male pa stalne mesečne prispevke. To je neobhodno potrebno in za enkrat tudi najboljši izhod.

VESELICA DRUŠTVA 419 SNPJ
Harwick« Pa. — Društvo 419 SNPJ bo priredilo veselico v korist društvene blagajne 18. maja v Unijski dvorani, začetek ob osmih zvečer.
Vabimo vse rojake, posebno pa članstvo, kajti na redni seji je bilo sklenjeno, da član ali članica, ki se ne bi udeležila veselice, bo morala plačati dolar v društveno blagajno. Izvzeti so samo bolni člani in članice. Dolžnost vsega članstva je, da pomaga graditi društveno blagajno, kajti nikdar ne vemo, kdaj na« doleti nesreča.
Odbor bo preskrbel za dobro postrežbo. Na svidenje!
Martin Prasnikar. tajnik.
1. JUNIJA PIKNIK IZLETNIŠKE FARME
Clovoland. Ohio.—V Clevelan-du se bo otvorilo izletniško sezono v nedeljo, 1. junija.
Kot običajno ima odbor izletniških prostorov elevelandskih društev SNPJ otvoritveni piknik, kateri se bo letos vršil prvo nedeljo v juniju. Pred par me->eci je odbor sklenil iti na delo za giadnjo novega plesišča in. če le mogoče, ga zgraditi do 1. junija.
Celokupni odbor je v to svrho izvolil posebni stavbinaki odbor, kateri je imel nalogo vse potrebno poskrbeti. Sel je takoj na delo in tudi takoj naletel na po-tcikoče, posebno v izposlovanju gradbenega dovoljenja. Ni še ¿agctcvljeno. če bomo imeli ob enem na tem izletu tudi otvoritev novega p'esišča. Med tem časom se bo zemljišče izravnalo za udobnejše parkanje avtomobilov in pripravilo se bo igrali-sce zb otroke. Atletski odbor p« jv obljubil pripravili "base bali
diamond." Društvo Comrad« k obljubilo postaviti razno on*! na otroško lgrališče. To * izvršiti v kratkem, da bo ; no pred koncem maja.
Uprava farme je zdaj v rokah po večini mladih moču k; so vn^ za izboljšanje prostorov in upati je, da bo v vseh ozirih USDel "Old timerji" jim pa seveda pi magamo kolikor moremo
Ako bo vreme v prihodnjih par tednih ugodnejše kot je bilo zadnji čas, bodo posetniki otvoritvenega izleta našli veliko sprememb na izletniških prostorih Ker je na zemljišču mnogo dela, katerega se da izvršiti brez najemanja profesionalcev, se a-pelira na požrtvovalne člane, da pridejo ob nedeljah pomagati pri tem delu.	Blaž Novak.
drustvenjTvest
Harminia. Pa.—Članstvu društva 87 SNPJ naznanjam, da je bilo sklenjeno na seji 4. maja, da se bo vršila junijska seja 8. junija in ne
prvega, to je drugo nedeljo v juniju in ne prvo. Upoštevajte to spre* membo.

^«li ledger. This one was organ-^leb! Ed Godec. Its high points r* Exceptional attendance by the SSbu gh Morning Stars, led by j hn Ujcch, and by the Sharon ¿evston rs. Ed and his co-workers 2 along their gratitude for work irred at the dance A rather rain fell during the entire in* hut it did not curtail at-
tendance ^oo greatly. All in all, the
¡ice will be on par with other sue-
cessful Eagle ventures.
Picnic, July 4 Our next outstanding attraction will be a combined picnic at the Avon Park Roller Rink on July 4. This picnic will be under the aus-ptfes of the Eagles and Lodge 49. a combination which has led to many entertaining affairs. This will be an entire-day affair. Music is planned for the afternoon with a short speaking program about five o'clock. It is very probable that Cleveland's Rudy Lisch will head-line this part of the agenda. No doubt, the local Circle will also be part of the program. But, as I mentioned before, it will be a short program; nothing elaborate but substantial nevertheless.
Music for the evening period will be played by Joe Umeck and his Polka Kings. This will be a full dance session with music beginning about eight o'clock. All of our boosters should mark our date in their memory book because there will be no better place to go on July 4th. Our excuse for this huge picnic is "sixty" years of SNPJ life in Gi-rard; lodge 49 is rounding out "49" years and the Eagles 19.
The following members are organizing the affair: John Rovan, Louis Muster, Louis Racick, Stan Hribar, Mary Selak, Marko Mateko-vich and Frank Rezek. .
Henry and Joe Leskovec are a two-man committee investigating possibilities of organizing a softball team for this season. It is believed States Cooperative Wholesalers now
CHICAGO, 111.—We're having the regular monthly meeting of the Pioneers this Friday at the SNPJ Hall. The tournament committee will report upon the outcome of the 1947 National SNPJ Bowling Classic and the Grand Bowlers' Dance. First plans for the August 2nd Picnic will be released and we'll talk about the possibility of getting up an excursion for the National SNPJ Day in Cleveland, Ohio, August 30 and 31, and Sept. 1st. Ida Simon and her committee will prepare refreshments, while Anne Cartier is trying to rig up some music for dancing. We'll have the usual attendance awards. All Pioneers are invited to
attend Friday, May 16.

A baby boy arrived in the family of Frank Norieko. Congratulations! —Vern Zadel's youngest child, her third, has been enrolled in the lodge. So has the baby of John and Helen Winter. The membership campaign has but a month and a half to go. Unless something like a miracle happens, the Pioneers won't hit their quota. Come on all ye faithfuls, let's get the applications rolling in. We need them bad.—Louis Zorko has been added to the Pioneer sick list. He is in the University of Chi cago Clinic.—Margaret Setinc lost her father. We extend our sympathy.—A card from Miami, Florida, tells us that Fred Bennett is enjoying his early vacation there.—Agnes Wilt spent some time in California and admired the beauty of Hollywood and the orange groves.
—The next meeting of the bowlini? tournament committee will be held Thursday, May 15, at the Center. Final reports will be ratified. A full attendance is very desirable. Tirr.e: 8:15 pm.

We are told that the Central
that enough young members from Lodge 49 and the Eagles can be mustered together to field a team. The two young men—two 6f the most active from the younger set— will make a full report at our next meeting. It is reported that Henry Cigolle will manage the team. The boys are glad to play for him and we know that it can be a happy summer season for all concerned. Yes, and maybe we could take a trip to Sharon and lick the pants off the boys there!
OFF THE RECORD—Frances Ma-Ukovich has been added, officially, to the social committee. Frances, a past president, is one of our most d»p<ndable workers, and we appreciate her devotion to the SNPJ. Bill Sutl resigned as vice president and chairman of the social committee. He is planning on leaving Girard in the near future. We are sorry to you go. Bill, but success for the future W( will elect a new vice president at our next meeting.
A full busload of Girard people attended the Power Point dance. L'meck played there and was responsible for the busload. Frances ««tekovich arranged a Mother's D;,y program for May 11.
Congratulations to Betty Macek on her recent marriage and to the "*rgor of Olga Golob and Frank B"Ika- The Golob family is get-tinR smaller all the tirre and will be ,v«*n smaller in June when Margr «W Louis Lonkner are married.

Without a demand, the wheels of industry will slacken and we will
have vacations without pay. • • •
It looks like Congress is going to insist on the drastic Labor Bill because big business is out to do as much harm as possible to the labor unions. The surprising thing about this is how the common people take it. Being misinformed on the truth and being continuously reminded of the numerous strikes, in bad light, the common people turn against the union. Everyone should realize that it is no picnic to strike. That it is not done to get aF vacation without pay but in order to procure a bigger share of the big profits of the large corporations. If they can pay executive officers big fat sums running into six figures, surely they can pay the workers who produce all of the good things in life a little higher wages. Outlawing the closed shop simply means that the power of the union to bargain on an equal baais is lessened. We hope that a lot of our people have written to their Representatives to vote against
the present Labor Bill.

On May 25, Chicago will have a conference on the subject of "Protection of Foreign Born." It will be held at Hull House, famed for its Jane Addams. Because so many of our people are concerned, we have been asked to send representatives.
—The people everywhere fear that another war is coming soon. That opinion prevails in this country at: well as in England and many other countries. Confidential news get ting out of Washington now tells us that there isn't any likelihood of another war within the next five years but that the period of six to ten years hence will be critical and they don't doubt a bit that another war will be fought before twenty years are up. Of course, events can alter these opinions. A war could come even sooner. On the other hand, with an alert citizenry, a war can also be put off indefinitely those people who run the world will just spend five percent of the money

derstand that big and huge profits are made out of wars and they are the determining factors in another war. Oh yes, they figure that the next war would be against the ideology of Russia and therefore, against Russia. Those of us who are aware of this fact and others who don't want war, must unite and work for peace, every day in the week.

manufacturers. All types of machines are now being made to save labor and time and to knock out the merchandise faster. These machines will, naturally, displace man-power. They are able to do a better job faster with less help, thus making more profit for the manufacturers. The bad thing about these new machines is that people will be laid off and with the earning power cut we'll run into another depression because they will not have the money to spend for the commodities made by the machines. There is only one solution to this whole problem. That is: Socialization! Some sort of collectivist system must come about if we are to save our people from another depression. Many big people are trying to deny these facts but they seem to be fooling themselves' because, at the present rate of things and the high prices, the savings of the people will soon be spent and their accumulations during the war. So will the big market for commodities.

SNPJ National Tourney
One of the Uugest delegations from anywhere in the country left Cleveland to take in the National Bowling Tournament sponsored by the Pioneer lodge. It was a tired group that arrived back in Cleve land on Monday. With few excep tions an enjoyable time was had by all. The writer, Rudy Lisch, and Cam Zarnick represented supremo board members in the group. Alternate Carl Samminich also wis kind enough to help one of thn teams out.
The group is looking forward to Detroit next year. Johnstown with limited facilities also bid but could not be accepted. With the National in Detroit next year, Cleveland hav ing the Eastern Invitational this year, maybe it would be a good Idea for Johnstown to sponsor the East ern next season.

Jolly Jrs. Plan Spring Dance
SYGAN, Pa.—You nestle closely to your partner, as you dance to Anniversary Song," "Heartaches,'' or other favorite tunes. Then you find yourtielf dancing a polka aimlessly with the best or the worst dancer on the fleior. Oh, but it's such fun!
During intermission you hope someone will ask you downstairs to the refreshment counter, where the best hamburgers are made. If the boys cling to the bowling alleys like ivy to a porch, you become interested in fowling.
At 1 am you wish the orchestra will play Just one more, maybe two more waltzes, because some nicc boy has asked you to dance a couple of times. These and many more are episodes that repeat themselves at each Sygan dance.
Before the weather gets unbearably hot, the Jolly Junior Circle 36 plans to hold another dance. Thi« dance will differ somewhat from these held at the club in the past few weeks. No, it's not a square dance, nor is it our old fashioned waltz, which we rarely see today. May I say different, because it will not consist chiefly of polkas, nor boogie-woogie. The orchestra differs in variety and tempo. We are happy to announce that Sandy Wyse and his orchestra will feature our dance music on Sunday, May 18, from 9 pm to 1 am,
If you want to share these com nu»n, pleasant memories, then wo welcome you to come with as to the dance.

Last Saturday afternoon Helen Ruppe and Marge Fritsel put in a hard day washing uniforms and putting the equipment in good condition.

There is always a lot of action at a Wolverine dance and Ibis time it is Eddie Habat and his Vjr-chestra from Cleveland on Saturday, May 24.
Friendly Vlewst—Still talking about Chicago and a swell time wo all had. The first to Arrive at the train station wore M.. and Mrs. Matt Pink and daughter Louise, followed by a happy g^ng uf Wolverines and Young Americans.
The first thing that had our engine« rs stopped was how to turn the seats in the special coach around no that the occupants would lie facing each other. After a half hour of pushing, pounding and kicking, our own master mind, Detroit's butter and egg man Frank Gaber solved this seat situation.
Then came the music with Pink and Karun doing a swell job ami Yerman, Selak, and Klucevsek glv. ing us an exhibition on a new type of Hawaiian dance. "Lefty" Ko* vach seemed to lie the most popular man on the train as most of the young ladies seemed tu flock 'towards him not only liecause he is st^ll single, but due to the faut thut he had a spccml suitcase with tic upper compartment loaded with sandwiches and the lower section hsd just Pepsi Cola.
A little later on WH rnnli- fa Jim* Kern asking everybody to relax and so Vic Stromal' did relax right' tfftu (he coach window and thus with window glatys all around, Vlt' n arked that he hiust have refused just u little too much Al H> I nil k, our iiMimmate at the Morrison $&>• tel, remembered very little of tho train ride, Al tells us he r+dttfh* hers getting on and off, what happened! in between is but a blank.'*
Pete Benedict passing out a new drink which kind of hit the spot, the name "Cream of the Ujifp." Then along comes the card gillie with lan ry Her nick, Pete Benedict Jr., Leo Hernlek, and Tony CMqtr doing all of the winning. Al Mac-canl was passing out the drinks, htyt It seemed every time we got clpsn to Al Ihe bottle was empty. Molly Perlc, Ann Serdonejr, Helen ati>l Julia Krumulchik were having u hit of fori, but scented to Im* niivjjM their strength for the howling al-Icys.
We bumped into none other Uisn our old friend Jiggs Hogutay and I»», loo, gels aiound once in a whiio Tony Steffler and Dsn Obed werit making thcii share of the nolo* and both of the boys looked like they could go for u little sleep. Then there was Johnny Jack In h looking for his laiwling ball and us it was a little daik in tlm coach, Johnny hud a time trying to locale that bull The mun that we alwaya do« pend on Is Honest Joe Mukqtvi und everyone seemed to want Honest Joe to guard the at the hotel and he did a
Millie and liertha Her nick with Mary Benedict were occupying a privute seat and we tried to catch on what was going on but wo camn out second la-st, with a pint of that Cream of Crop Ik'ichio Naprudnik helped us out by saving a seat aa nil weie alreudy occupied , and lien hie had a swell time meeting all of her many friends at Chicago.
A few of us returned to Detroit • m Ihe .'I 45 train Sunday afternoon, thanks to Mr. and Mrs. Hart Yam* tiik foi the rido to the station. The trip was made short and interest* ling hack to Oetroit. With A Ho. met/ giving ua tips on horses to play and not to play, Hudy Junko telling us aland his expeilenee In the If M Seuliees and the rlchee he won and l<*t. With Big Hudy Klu* eevsok taking it all In and finally ll<.i. Tiavnik calling us a capitalist all on account of *40 and Shorty Junko helping out his brother in t>me of neeel
All in all wo had a swell time and it ended up with Vie Stromar attired in Mis.

Gla-van of ih« Bedgets take the doubk-s What was the largest and perhaps the must successful National Bowling Tournament ever held by th«» SNPJ took place on April 24, 25. 2« and 27. at the Cascade Alleys in Chicago. Because it was a big tournament and because it was run in two classes, the Committee headed by Jarre« Jachino. Tournament Sec I
retary had a lot of work in checking the scores and tabulating the winners. The report of the results has therefore been delayed some what. Nevertheless, the job has now been completed and the winners are listed herewith.
The Badgers of Milwaukee. Wis. and the France Preseren ladies of Indianapolis have taken top honorj in Class A. Cleveland took both titles in Class B Nanos No. 284 took the men's title while the Comrade ladies won in the women's division.
Some very outstanding bowlers rolled in this tournament and many fine scores were rolled, some of
(hem unexpectedly. This tourna- participants
ment showed that we have many fine * »man bowlers. Some of their ¿cons compare favorably with the men. The Tournarrent showed up the fact that while the good bowlers do get into the money, many of the ordinary bowlers share in the top honors. •
In hehali of Chicago'« SNPJ Pioneers. who sponsored the event for the National Athletic Board, we want to thank every one who par ticipated in the Tournament With very minor exceptions, all of the many bowlers, who rolled nearly 5000 lines in some thirty hours, behaved remarkably well and acted like ladies and gentlemen and sports

A mother's day never seems to be done, so show your love and respect at all times. Some of us don't have to go back very far to remember the sacrifices our mothers made for us day after day. So again I say, remember mother and help her in any way you can.

Co-ops in the Press
*Co-ops did a smart thing for themselves when they hired Jerry Voorhis,' says Printers Ink. leading advertising Journal 'With him on the job the National Tax Equality Association is due for some real tiouble in its efforts to curb the growth of cooperatives.'
A Christian Science Monitor writer points put effect of NTEA propa ganda, 'A few years ago the cooperatives were a democratic cor rectlve of the defects of capitalism . . . Today it U different. The pub tic has been told so insistently that the cooperatives have reached their prosperous state through tax fa voritism that it is inclined to thinV ol the cooperative as an unfair com petitor .
The cooperative role in price control is discuMed by a writer in the American Vterans Committee Bulletin While we in AVC were fu-tilely beating our breasts for an ef fective price control act last sum. mer. we blithely tgnored a medium which M million people in 47 countries have found effective, not only to control price» but alao to prac tier economic democracy, to stifle
(discrimination against minorities and to build an economic bridge to wot Id peace.'
Strugglers-Star-Gazette
CLEVELAND—Back again after an absence of several weeks due to circumstances beyond control and am happy to report that our Twentieth Anniversary celebration was a huge success. Not only was it a financial success but a social one as well.
Many of our SNPJ friends and well-wishers came from miles around to wish us continued success in the coming years and that some day we may reach the top and be the largest English speaking lodge in the SNPJ. Even though your scribe did not get a chance to mingle in the crowd we saw quite a few old-timers not only from the Strugglers but other lodges as well.
Hl-LITES: John Sore of "V Boj" busy as a bee setting up the props on the stage. Vince Coff was the man responsible for the tableau setting and the makeup on our Barber, shop Quartet. Our master of ceremonies. Johnny Lokar, looking the same as ever and several times we wondered if we were celebrating our tenth anniversary or twentieth. Rudy Lisch, supreme board member, still keeping the audience spellbound with his dynamic voice.
Tiny Linda Turner brought on many oh's and ah's with her dance numbers. The Vadnal Boys play, ing and singing "Among My Souvenirs" in English and Slovene. The cooks preparing a delicious meal which was enjoyed by all. Steffie Tolar peeking into the ticket booth and complimenting yours truly on the faithful articles that appear week after week. Among the Comrades we saw Marie Stephanie, Joe Fifolt and Tony Kerze.
Loyalites came in great number and among them we spotted Doc and Mimi Gregoric, A1 and Rosemary Raines, Dorothy Raines and her heart-throb, and last but not least Stan Zupon and Shorty Zadell. Quite a few Utopians were present but at the present time names fail me but we do know that they too carr.e in great numbers. Jo Lokar looking just as smart as ever with a corsage and that twinkle in her eye. Where in the world were Lou and Ann Yappel? Ditto for Jo Tomsic.
That cock-tail set donated by the Shaker Jewelry Co. was won by Mary (Zlatoper) Ross, a Strugglcr member who was very much surprised as being the lucky winner. And that was the "Real McCoy" Walter Lampe had in the bottle on the stage as a member of the Straggler Barbershop Quartet. Johnny Marolt did a grand job as head bartender and deserves a word of praise.
No, we haven't forgotten those who worked and here is a special "Thank you" from all of us to ail of you! Last but not least, "Thanks'* too for coming to our affair and making it such a grand success. And that means You and You I
Strugglers-Newsy-Notes
Now that our affair is a thing of the past may we remind you to keep Sunday, July 13, open for us? That is the day Strugglers are having a picnic at the SNPJ Farm. More details to appear in later editions of the Prosveta.
While glancing through The Voice of Youth I noticer that awards are given to those who contribute regularly to the magazine, and I was just wondering If it wouldn't be a good idea if we "oldsters" wert given similar awards for consistent effort in contributing articles in our English Section of the Prosveta. In this way I think it would encourage Others to write and since we have the space why not use it to a good advantage?
Movies were taken at our affair and naturally we are all anxious to see them . . . Sunday. June 1, find6 the Farm Board opening the picnic reason at the SNPJ Farm (and we understand that Tony Ker?e is caretaker). Here's hoping that all true SNPJers will come out in full number and make this the "picnic of picnics." We'll be seeing you!
Our heart-felt sympathies go to Fanny Lanowe and Mimi Grcgorcic who lost their mother several weeks ago. May she rest in peace.

BOWLING—Last Friday terminated the bowling sessions for the SNPJ Ladies' League. The two Utopian teams comprised of M. Re-cher, M. Zorman, F. Simoncic, M Matthews, M. Perdan, J. Kronik, S Zorman, F. Zorir.an, C. Lisch and D. Grill didn't cop any honors, but wv certainly shared in the fun and excitement during the entire bowling season.

Spirit-O'Grams
ST. LOUIS, Mo.—First and all important item on today's panel is our forthcoming May Dance which will be held at Concordia Turner Hall, in the Winter Garden, Saturday, May 17, beginning at 8 pm until? Everyone is welcome. We expect to have another gay evening of polka dancing, etc, The same orchestra will be on hand that played for us at the Valentine dance.
The committee has everything in readiness. It's up to us to get out and sell tickets. How about our champion ticket sellers, Mitzi Sveg-lich, Frank Kokal, who sold 32 tickets for our last dance, and runner, ups for high sales were John Las-terni, Ida Baumgarth and several others. Let's brake their record, what say?
Our meeting last Friday evening was fairly well attended. Meeting was short and snappy, but we had a nice gabfest afterwards 'midst sandwiches, cakes, coffee and bee' Aren't you sorry you missed it?
Several weeks ago I returned from my vacation I spent in Pennsylvania. I wish to thank Chas. and Ann Fontana for their wonderful hoi pitality. Ann Fontana was a former Spirit member. She is now a member of the lodge in Universal, Pa. I met several Slovenes (Gran-ish to you Pennsylvanians) while I was there. I like the country oui there very much and everyone wa> very friendly. Stopped in Mr. arvl Mrs. Mike Kumer's store while I was in town. Glad to have t»ad th> opportunity to get re-acquaint.4. Lots of good luck to Mr. and Mrs Ed Debclak in their new home. It* certainly a honey.
I'll be seeing you all at the dan« Saturday evening. All workers please be on time. As for guests, come any time. Hope to see bow jrembers of neighboring Ml" present.	..

"We cannot stop communism by pouring billions into Europe and Asia to support unpopular regimes; nor can we do it by a witch hunt against 'Communists' and "subversives' at home.
"If we don't want our 'radicals' *o act like rats, let's stop driving them underground and thereby compelling them to work like rats. And on that point let's heed President Roosevelt's reminder that we are all descendants of immigrants and revolutionists.
"We can stop Communism only by making our social system work for abundance and freedom, not by 'loyalty' purges."	*
THE PRESENT world trend is toward a "rr.ixed" economy in which public enterprise will gradually replace private enterprise.
Economic reorganization bag"*! on that principle is' taking place in Lritain and throughout Europe, and thtrc is no doubt about it, our eco nomic royalists notwithstanding.
That idea is supported by Wallace and by democratic-minded peoples everywhere. True democracy re-quins free competition for such ideas.
Let us be clear about the present
trend of reaction:
Those who would suppress Wallace and other progressive elements • are enemies, not friends of free government. They work for totality mn methods while pretending to fight them.

ting at your desk, with a patient, and suddenly, you find you cannot keep your attention on what the child's mother is saying. You sit there until your strength creep* back and then you work a little longer. Or, you are standing up, and suddeinly you have to sit down.
It is pitiful to see the old—people who once thought they would spend their last years with their children and grandchildren around them. That was before the war; now they live as best they can, huddled in the dark in the cold. When they walk they stay near the wall and they press their hands against it for support. They move like ghosts, ghosts for whom the others have no time, for the yftung must be up and about to try to get food in any way they can.
The papers say there will be flour and the people wait, but the flour does not come that day, or if it does the supply gives out before their line is reached. You can live on flour, so they have learned. You brown it. add water, and it makes soup. That's what the women. are doing as they bend over the little fires along the sidewalk, the fire» they have made of a few sticks of salvaged wood held between bricks or tiles. Many of the homes in the bombed areas have no stoves left. It is cold, this second winter after the war, very cold.
The hunger, though, is worse than the cold. You can do something about the cold. You can find something else to put over the shoulders or wrap around the feet. Or, you can go to bed and stay there. You can wait the cold out, for there is a beginning and an end to cold, but there is no end to hunger.
And being hungry you do thingn you thought you never would do. You send your children out to trade on the black market. It would go hard on you if you got caught, but with the children, if they get "picked up' the authorities will be more lenient.
You learn, too, not to ask your children too many questions when they bring food home. You don't ask anybody questions about where food comes from. You eat it, and while you are doing so you hope no one will come in with whom it ought to be shared. Y6u have not enough for your own. Adversity does not bring out the best in people, notr when it is a question of who shall live and who shall starve. It is each for himself and his own.	s
You see the children grow thinner, day by day. With the babies it is all right as long as they are nursing. They grow fat, as babies should, but their mothers become like wraiths. And—the baby lives and the mother may die. Yes, of course, places are set up where nursing mothers can get supplementary feedings, but they hate the way it is done. The rule is that they must eat the food at the ccnter. Otherwise they would, of course, take the food home for the children. You gag when you eul food knowing that your children are hungry, but the rule is the rule and if you don't eat, there will be no milk for the baby. When he's taken off the breast hell lose weight fast enough and become like the others.
Those who can go to school have it a little better than their youngs-brothers and sisters, for there is a school feeding program of sorts, or there was when UNRRA was bringing in help. But the children can

Starvation goes by still othir names .than tuberculosis. Sometimes on the death certificate it k listed as typhoid Ifever, or it is called diarrhea, or any of the diseases that come from an impure food supply. When you're hungry you'll eat anything—and people dd. They eat what is there to be eaten, thougn ordinarily it would turn their stomachs. And they drink what's to be drunk; they do not have pasteurized milk and they do not have refrigerators nor do they always have the means to boil water.
Death takes whole families—sometimes there is no one left to not if-/. Death also leaves many orphans. The younger ones are cared for in institutions. The older ones look after their selves, and "juvenile delinquency" in their case is a way of saying boys and girls are hungry. They take as they can; they oppose with violence the peasant or anyone else who tries to stop them. The girls'have their own ways ol getting along. Young as they are they come to terms early, as hungry people everywhere come to terms. Even their own mothers must sometimes come to terms.
Of course, One is ashamed when the authorities come because one's children are running the streets at night, and one cannot tell the authorities about the soldier who comes to call while the children are out. But the soldier brings food and what is better? That one's children go hungry? The neighbors know; the authorities know; and someday one's own husband, now a prisoner of war, will have to know. Who is to say who is a good mother and who is not, in times like these? It is the war!
And you hope, because you must. Help must come—you say to yourself as with others who are able, you do what you can to get the children fed and the sick among them cared for. You, who are in Vienna, that once was the place doctors came to from all over the world to learn what was new in medical practice, put aside for a better day the techniques you have acquired in well-equipped hospitals and clinics. You practice medicine without instruments, without the drugs you need, without supplies, often without even hot water. Your patients come to you from long distances and they walk a good part of the way, or you make the rounds on foot or by street car to their shelters. The prescrip tion in most cases would be simple, if it could be filled—food. A doctor's world like every one else's world in the devastated parts of Europe, gets brought to that one word, food.

Some 30,000,000 children in Europe alone are living this marginal life, and fn the far East, there are that many and more who need to be fed. Hope for at least some of them lies in the proposed International Emergency Children's Fund, authorized by the General Assembly of the United Nstions. Funds from the member Nations are to be sought. The goal is to give one good meal a day for a year to 20,000,000 children. That number includes babies for whom extra supplies of milk are needed, and it also includes o supplementary feeding for pregnant women. The individual cost is put at $20 per year per child.

You| might keep children in it, even so, if they were well fed, warmly clothed, and bundled up, as in fijesh-air schools: but these children have come to school with empty stom-achs and their clothes, even when they have on the family wardrobe, are not enough to keep out the chill.
They get sick and there is nothing to be done about it. The "authorities" in Vienna know as much as people anywhere in the world about how tuberculosis should be dealt with, but they do nothing because they are helpless.

Other symptoms of this childhood disease are a loss of appetite and failure to gain weight; pain and swelling of first one joint and then another, usually accompanied by fever; jerky movements of the face, arms and legs, especially when the child tries to dress or feed himself; and unexplained crying spells.

Program Progress
Rehearsals for our coming program "Sho' Nuif" are coming along very nicely, pbrty members will appear on thia fR-ogrum which will feature a special kindergarten welcome sketch, an SNPJ «kit, and the Minstrel Show itself. Thursday eve-ning and Saturday morning are the rehearsal dates for this week, and members are urged to be at the hall on the exact time told, as we are staggering the rehearsals due to thn large number of children uppearing on this program.
Baseball and Sport Notas
At the moment, both the program and baseball practice sessions ar«f running neck and neck as the main topics of conversation among Circle members. Many plans are being formulated arid scheduled for sum mer sports activities for Perfect Clr cle, and it looks like we are in for a lot of good, clean exercise and fun. "Coach" Bob Sanncmann Is in charge of the Wednesday and Friday evening practice sessions, and somehow he always manages to get out intd left field to play right along with the kids. These sessions will be held until after oUr program, after which we will have undivided time and attention to da vote to building up a team or two, if possible.
SNPJ Juvenile Tourney
It was a very happy Perfect Cir cle group who proudly viewed the SNPJ Bowling Trophy \hat our girls' team had won in the national tournament. While the girls had bowled fairly well all during the season, came the tournament, the excitement that goes with it, the fact that we were busy with spon soring the team events here in Chi cago with other groups, our own bowling banquet, etc., our girls felt that they could have bowled better after it was all over. Well, girls you did okay, yes. indeed I The win ning team was composed of Dot Ga lavan, Captain, Grace Ann Gerdanc Rosemary Merhaut, Rose Podbev sek, and Ella Mae Selak. To all of over the fate of Poland and ttio you, Perfect Circlers say, 'Thank you for bringing home the bacon!'*
To the SNPJ; Perfect Circle extends sfneere appreciation for enabling us to have and participate in a tournament for Juveniles. This week is National Youth Week here in the United States, and I cannot help but observe and reflect how our SNPJ does more than its share, where its Youth is concerned. Advantages are offered to them in every way possible, not only in the fraternal, sod 1 and recreational forms so important to the young, but also in the protection forms so very necessary when one is old,. Yes, we should all pause and reflect, not only of the past, but for the future' as well, for the youth of today il also the old age of tomorrow.
The bowling trophies swarded to the winners are really beauties, and Perfect Circle is happy and proud to place this latest one among the others we have won. To the othvr bowlers in our Circle we also extend our congratulations even if you were not winners, becauae as far as spirit and morale are concerned, you were just as instrumental in making the tournament the success that it was. We sre proud of your efforta, and we are wishing you better luck next year.
To Bro. Michael Vrhovnlk, Juve nile Director of SNPJ, Perfect Cir-cle extends a "Thank You" for help and cooperation given us with our part In the tournament activitU>s held here in Chicago. They were a success because all of us here in the midwest worked together, efficiently and harmoniously, with the result that we have another pleasant SNPJ memory, not only to look back upon, but also to spur us on toward bigger and better things in the future.

Even in Europe, Soviet power has everywhere boeh thrown on the do-, fensive. When Soviet troops aru withdrawn from there, Austria will attach herself to the American-led West.
Hungary, a Catholic pesssnt country, Is leaning that way too. Czechoalovskis's economic interests, the prevailing share of non-Soviet markets in her trade, is preventing this country from being the simple Russian puppet, which she is often wrongly labeled.
Europe's greatest prize in the American-Soviet struggle for power, of course, is Germany, In the long run it will be the German people themselves who will decide for East or West. It will be one Germany, not dismembered, which will ultimately join the American or Soviet group. For the Germsns there is only the Fathsrland.

This observation is very timely. That the people who say they have the best plans for abundance of bread, have the least brsad jtist now. Of course, this is no mystery for thoae who know thSt human mlsevv is the greatest momentum of progress.
But it ia a bitter irony of this decade that the people who will most certainly create an age of plenty lor all in the near future, must now beg bread from people who ridicule them and their planned economy as the burlesque of crackpots. unworthy of any prestige from the people of free exploitation.
American orthodox politician* hsve made many farmers believe that our great age of plenty wan the horse-and-buggy age and That the test of planning is no plsnning on national scale. While this farmer's "marihuana'' lasts, the finest thing libersis can do for the good of plenty, Is to keep quiet about socialism or any other ism, till they sre going to grow and share umong themselves their own bread.
The moment of long and last laugh for liberals In Europe or America will come sooner than we may expect, as the polltlciiL. marihuana dope won't last the farmer» long when they lose markets.

CHICAGO, 111.—We hsve recently read of two noticeably important news items in our local newspapers, which l feel are worthy mentioning
The first concerns Ed Baitik of Chicago, an es-G. I., who fought bravely in Guadalcanal, Palau, and Okinawa, and was wounded severs I times. After he returned to the U. S. he was married, and when his child was born he had no job, no money, snd his wife was in poor health. They had no other alternative but to leave their month old baby in the doorway of St. Vincent's Orphanage with a note explaining that they would come for their child as soon as they cemld poaaibly afford to keep him. Yes, this war hero had been decorated for his bravery three time« with the Purple Heart, and yet, he waa unable to find a job.
Another Interesting news article announced that the Chrysler Motor Corporation had doubled Ha profit this year. Their net profit for the first quarter of thia year 1s not lesa than $21,502,408. In other words, we can visualise a clear profit of over twenty one and a half million dollars for the Chrysler Corporation in the first three months of this year. Not only Chrysler, but any other auto manufacturing corporation is able to sccumulste enormous profits in s short time only by charging an exorbitant price for their eats.

What America Wants
By FREDA KIRCHWEY
It does not require the free-swinging imagination ol an H G. Walla to realise that mankind today is in the midst of one of the great movements of change that have punctuated its history. Whoa Secretary Marshall aad Henry Wallace landed in Washington the other day. one from s somewhat qualified defeat at Moscow, one from a rather ambiguous triumph in several European capitals, they represented something far more important than the events in which they took part.. Each repreeenled a tendency, a stream, in a swift and largely uncontrolled current. At present those tendencies croas one another, setting up a lively riffle. But Henry Wallace's thinking is not as fsr from George Marshall's as both men probably believe; they sre moving togethe-
in the same general direction.
I have been trying, during these past days of deadlock in Moscow and wehement debate in Washington, to consider objectively the purpose this country's foreign policy is intended to defend, and then to sppraise the policy itself as an instrument for that purpose Little is gamed by concentt sting on mdlvidusl eddies or tide-rips; they may be the dsily business of journalism, but they will not be understood unless one understands as well the direction and force of the current. Not is it enough to say that the Truman Doctrine, as applied today to Greece and Turkey, is a demonstration of "ruthless im-perialism"; or to deny this charge and argue that our policy is intended to head off the imperialist drive of Soviet Russia The purpose behind either intention, as slso behind the German policy developed at Moscow by Mr. Marshsll and the trsde policy expounded by our representatives at Geneva, is what needs looking at: this purpose is the preservstion, against immense threst, of the system of private capitalist enterprise upon which our country's whole development has been based.
This is not a small thing or a con. temptible one; it is the essence of America—as socialism is the essence of Russia—snd the fact that the system is giving wsy, bit by bit, in every continent but this one only increases the determination of those who believe in it to strengthen its defenses. For if free enterprise us s world system is crumbling, American free enterprise is not. This country hss resilience snd natural wealth and a productive capacity never equaled in all history; the study of America's needs snd resources issued by the Twentieth Century Fund revests a sensational picture of present-day facts and future possibilities.
No socisl order gives up while it is still cspsble of self-defense. Kven the Communists, when it hsppens to suit their purpose, recognize the vitality of the Americsn system, snd 1 noticed that their advertisement which appears on the back cover of this issue proclaims unqualified faith in politics! democrscy snd pesceful methods, with "socislism ss an ultimate goal." These protestslions should be tsken seriously for one reason: they offer evidence that th»r Communist Party recognizes the ir-relevance to the American situation of the traditional position thst links its dognrs and sympathies and methods to those of Soviet Kussis. For Arm rlcsn Communists to be honest revolutlonsries today would not only threaten their survival; it would slso be Utopian And modern Communist tactics are nothing if not practical.
The question Americans must answer, as they consider the impact of the Truman Doctrine on the rest of the world, Is: Do we believe— sssunv ing the United States will dn its utmost to defend the free-enterprise system—that our present foreign policy is likely to accomplish this purpose*
In Greece we ate not going to preserve drmoctary, since there is none to preserve; nor establish It. since we have promised the ptesent regime rrHilary help to put down re. belli«»n w« are aiming t«» stiffen the ability of one of the countries least able to sustain a capitalist
not merely to save American dollars now being used to feed Germans, or to prevent Russis from getting the reparations Molotov demanded —though thst turned out to be its practical effect. Its object wss to create a Germany in which pros-perity, or st least stability, might emerge from a revitalized system of finance and industry, strong enougn to withstand the pull of the socialist economies snd the Russian political power to the East.
It is very easy to say that the way to offset Communuit infection or pressure or outright threat is to make a country economically strong and prosperous. It hss been sug ¿ested that in Greece, for instance, American money spent, not by a United States Economic Mission act. ing through a royalist regime, but through an internationally super-vised commission acting for the United Nations, might rebuild the country to the point where democracy would reassert itself and put an end both to a corrupt oligarchy and to the danger of revolution and foreign control. Liberals hsve also argued thst in Germany we should use Socialists and trade unionists rather than the assorted rightists who more snd more are taking over administrative functions. This, they believe, will put Germany's future in the hands of political groups which will resist both fascism and communism and lead Germany to some sort of a moderate socisl democracy.
Both liberals and conservatives count somehow on the power of Americsn idess and money to sweep back the revolutionary tide; the conservatives by "standing firm" or "getting tough," the liberals by yielding enough to the forces of change to placate and disarm them. The Marshalls want American efficiency and power to move to the peripheries of the non-Russian world and establish outposts of the system they identify with a decent civilization. The Wallaces want to go there, too, with tractors and TVA's and friendly agreements, to call of? both the capitalist and the anti-cap. itslist drive. How realistic are the hopes of either? Do not both minimize the power of the revolutionary current?
In this process Rossis is an aggressive force in s sense America so far is not. It believes, ss this country does, that ita system is somehow equsted with civllizstion—with socisl justice and a superior variety of democracy. But it also believes thst the American system is on the defensive—and so do we. Tills give» Russia a special dynamism in spite of its relative economic weakness. Russis hss in addition the invaluable aids of a faith and a communal spirit. With all its material success the American system hss fsiled to evolve either one. On the other hsnd America has sll the power thst Its greatly expanded industrial plant provides, together with an altogether new sense of urgency and mission, born of a sudden realization of the dangers shesd.
In face of this power Russis may hslt snd even appear to surrender; the American policy of toughness may seem successful. But I believe any such shift will be s temporary diversion, not s change of direction. The economic wastelunds of the

Some new highs—or lows—have been set in snivelling hypocrisy on the psrt of the sponsors of the current anti-labor laws in Congress, thu State legislatures and local municipalities.
This evil thing called "The Omnibus" labor bill is designated by its backers as 'The American Workers' Bill of Rights." It is the sort of Bill of Rights that might be, and figuratively was, written through the collaboration of the boss of a sweatshop, the head of a strikebreaking detective agency and a shoeless Kluxer, the whole cleared through the NAM, the Bell Telephone Company, and Fulton Lewis, Jr.
Then comek s bunch of Funda-mentalist sky-pilots in the Americsn Council of Christian Churches to announce that the "Closed Shop vio-ates freedom of conscience and the Eighth Commandment, Thou shalt not steal.' "It also violates the individual's responsibility to God and destroys the unity snd the oneness of our free people in our democratic order."
Also Christian workers object to It, sccording to Dr. Robert T. Ketch am, head of this psalm-tinging schmier, because "it, (The Closed Shop) yokes them with unbelievers." That's no yoke, son, that's what the Reverend said in "The New York Timet" of April 17th, 1047,
Scab Glorified Dr. Ketcham would have agreed with the verdict of Harvard's illustrious President Charles Eliot, the inventor of the cafeteria process of educstion known as the elective system, In his glorification of the American scab. Dr. Eliot said that scabs were splendidly patriotic types of ugged American citizens, inasmuch as they refused to be yoked with men and wmrcn organized for mutual aid and protection into unions of their own choosing.
No sir, the scab will go in then-wit h the other lie I levers and work nine hourt a day at 90 cents an hour for the edification of "the Christian gentlemen to whom God has given control of the property rights of the country' 'as old George liaer, mine owner and railroad president, once put it.
In my own state of New Jersey, "Mother of Trusts' and Father of Runaway Shops, self.advertised "lib. ere Is" and "ft tends of labor" have struck a valiant blow for the free, dom of the oppressed workers by rushing through sn anti-strike bill, signed by that great "liberal" Governor Alfred K Dnseoll, msklng some ten thousand telephone workers crimtnsls, subject to immediate arreet. with fines tanging from 1200 to $500 and )all sentence« of thirty days for dsnng to walk up and
down in front of the Bell Company's exchanges announcing that they are striking for better wages and conditions.
Twelve minutes after the strike commenced, Labor Commissioner Harper with the help, no doubt, of God, and some National Guardamen, announced that he had "seized" the struck plantt and from there out the union kids were employees of the tovereign State of New Jertey and if they kept on ttriking, they were striking against their government. They kept on ttriking.
There are not ertough cellt in the jails hereabouti toxoid all the strik-ers, in addition to the uaual run of breakers of the 6ifcth, Seventh and Eighth Command/henta. (By the way, Dr. KetCham; what Bible are you using? In miae it saya, "Thou shalt not bear failse witness againtt thy neighbor." Ever heard of that one? Or don't you regard union men and women as neighbors of yours?)
So the cops couldn't do anything about the law, short of arresting the three women lesdert of the phone unions, and the friends of our great liberal Governor are now making much of the fact that none of the rank and file has been arreated under the buit-the-union law. Alto that a Republican judge wat tuffi-ciently vaccinated against the Jersey jitters to grsnt injunction to the un. ion until the prolonged process of deciding upon the constitutionality of the anti-strike law could be begun.—(The Call)

40,000.000 automobile drivers, tome good and tome bad.
140,000,000 pedestrians, including the very young, the very old, the lame, the halt and the blind.
34,000,000 automobiles, some new, some old, and many ready to fall apart.
3,000,000 miles of highwsys, with many a hazzard in every mile.
Add all these together and you have America's traffic lottery, a complex game of life and death in which each one of ua, willing or not, must have a hand.
Last year, 33,900 were killed and more than 1,300,000 Injured in U.S. street and highway accidents, according to figures compiled by The Travelers Insurance Companies. It was a year in which moat of us did not yet have that new car and thote new tiret with which to drive as frequently, or as fast, or as far as we might have liked. But the casualties were heavier than in any year since 1941. Why?
Most of the 1946 dead and injured were killed or hurt because they took a chance. They didn't pause to consider the risk because they didn't expect to lose. They did lose.
What of this year? This month? Today?
Some will lose because they are willing to take a chance, no matter how great the odds. Others will lose because they have not learned the game well enough to play It safely. Your stake In thia lottery is high. It is up to you to make certain you do not lose.
Remember this: when you gamble in traffic, you bet your life.
World Needs Real Socialism, A Banker Says

What?s Happened to Prices?
Biggest problem for every American family is the rising cost of food. It has shot up higher than any other baaic c o m m o d i t y—almost double what it was in August 1939. In two years, 1945 and 1940, the wholesale cost of food rote 58%. Wholetale prices were reflected in every grocery store.	y
Why did thit happen? The an-twer, according to the CIO Reeearch Dept., it PROFITS. Analyzing 16 food firmt, the CIO retearchert reported that "food profiti were what they were becauae of the ahort range view of induatry that the public thould pay at high a price at the market would bear." For Inatance, Ward Baking profiti for 1946 in-creaaed 254% oyer . 1945—13,642,738 at compared with $1,122,650. "1946 profits represented a return on investment or net worth of 20.4%. This is more than six times the 3.3% return on net worth in 1936-39 end three times their return of 6.9% in the war years 1942-45."
Noting the 58% price in wholesale food prices during 1945 and 1946, the reaearchera reported that hourly wage rates rose only 21% in that period. "According to the 1939 census of manufacturing, wages represented less than 9% of the value of the product in food industries. This means thst food compsnies could maintain their same profit level by increasing prices only 2%. With in. creaaed productivity and efficiency of operations, most induttriet could sbsorb this increased wage cost without passing any of it on to the public. But passed on as it was, the food industry increased prices more than 30 times whst was needed to take care of the wage increase."— (CIO News)

namic democratic Socialism. We are bringing to our reader* part of J* important statement which shows Mr. Warburg far in advance at « and political thinker, of most labor leaders, politicians, editor«. educ*7or etc.. not to speak of the common variety of "free enterpriser* " a
Once we were booted into the war, we understood very clearly that we. were up to our necks in a war of survival. We fought that war determinedly and well. But we never fully understood that we were also up to our necks in a world-wide revolution—not a revolution with any particular ideological label—but a revolution of peoples throughout the world againat various forms of exploitation and oppression.
Once military victory in a war of survival becomes a nation's sole aim, military expediency dictates objectives and procedures. Thus we found ourtelves for a time in alliance with the traitorout Vichy dictatorship against the people of France. We found ourtelvet later tupporting Marthal Badoglio and King Victor Emmanuel against the Italian people. We found ourtelves buying Spanish to-called neutrality by supplying Francitco Franco with the meant of continuing to opprcts the Spaniah people.
The dritiah commitment in Greece, which we are now being asked to take over, is the direct result of Churchill's clumsy efforts to block Soviet penetration of that country by restoring a reactionary and unpopular monarchy.
In order to assure ourselvet of Russian intervention in the Far Eaat, we tore up the pledges againtt annexation and againtt "territorial changet that do not conform to the freely expreaaed wishes of the peoples concerned." We went in for connivance in an old-fashioned victor's peace, with its spheres of influence and power politics. And, having paid this price for something that we did not need, we proceeded to cross up our own bargain by dropping the atomic bomb without telling our Allies that we had such a weapon.
We had thought that, when the war of turvival ended, western Europe at least would return to its old pattern—weaker no doubt, but not essentially different. This would have made us the big brother in Western society, able and perhaps willing to help the weaker members of the fimily regain their former democratic health.
It would have ttacked ut at the leader of the Wett againtt the Soviet Union as the leader of the East. Instead of thit, we saw western Europe moving into tocialitm—a socialism determined to preserve political freedom in the Western tente, but ready in the economic sphere to accept the bankruptcy of free-enterprise capitalitm.
We do not know whether we think the trend toward tocialitm in Europe serioutly endangers our own free enterprise system. We fear that it might. But we have reached no considered conclusion. Consequently, we do not know whether we want to try to arrest the trend. Nor do we krjjiw whether we really believe that we have the power to reverse it This is the number one priority in making a foreign policy.
It is also the number one problem in our domestic tociety.
Why?
Becauae—if thia foreign policy quettion is the buffalo, the Indian on the other side of the nickel reads: Arc we %iite sure of our own free enterprise system? Will the necet-tities which now compel Europe toward socialism arise indigenously here at a later date and compel us in the same direction?
In other words, do we believe that we can find some better way than public ownership of the monopolies to eliminate the boom and bust cycle? Do we believe thst we con prevent our system from alternately providing feast and famine for the majority of our people?
Today the ultimate establishment of world government is not even the svowed sim of our nstional policy. It is the svowed sim of British snd Canadian policy. We have accepted the United Nations ides, which is s long step In the right direction. But. unless we reslire that it is only a step, we shell be just ss fsr as ever from the gosl of lasting peace.
The Soviet Union has existed for lees than a generstion. For most of its life it has fsced the determined hostility of the West British. French snd United State« armed forces unsuccessfully tried to sid the overthrow of the esrly Bolshevik regtrre. snd for s long period there-sfter the western powers would not recognize the Soviet Government We ourselves extended recognition only in 1934. sfter Hitler had come to power in Germany
In the period preceding the outbreak of World War II. Western diplomacy tried its best to turn Nsti aggreeeion eaat ward against Russis To take note of these facts of htstorv is not to overlook or condone the subversive revolutionary activities earned on throughout the world by the Comintern, nor the cynical alliance made by the Soviet Union with Nari Or man v in 193»,
These were Moscow's own con-
tributions toward a state of mutuil distrust and suspicion, which con tinued to exist between Russia and the West, even after they Were thrown into the same camp in the war of aurvival.
We ask for a base in Iceland or Greenland. Knowing that our in-tentions are peaceful, we cannot understand why this should disturb the Soviet Union. But when the Soviet Union, likewise sure of its own peaceful intentions, asks for a base in Spitzbergen, we become alarmed. And so it goes around the circle.
Or, take it another way. We demand sole trusteeship and the right to exclude others from the Pacific islands formerly mandated to Japan. Somewhat surprisingly, the Soviet Union backs our demand on the grounds that we made the greatest sacrifibe in the Pacific war.
Very toon we shall be asked to back a similar demand by the Soviet Union for a tpecial military position in some area where the Red Army made the greatest sacrifice. Thus the architects of the second-line foreign policy sometimes collaborate in building the vicious circle.
Assuming, for example, that wt might wish to re-establish prewar free enterprise in areas which are now headed toward some form ana degree of socialism, it means not only that we must measure our power of attraction against that of the Soviet Union; it means also that we must not blind ourselves to the fact that history is moving—and moving rapidly—in the direction of socialism.
Our power to arrest such a trend is not nearly ao great as we think. But our power to wrest leadership in such a trend from a totalitarian police-state is greater than we realize, because we do not even contemplate that sort of a middle course.
We can fritter away our strength in a futile attempt to buck the tide of history. Or we can use our strength to help regulate the flow and guide it toward universal freedom, justice and peace.
In every country of the world today there are masses of people who recognize that something is wrong, and who want to find out what it is in order to change it for the better. And, in every country there are a few people who are either satisfied with the world as it is, or think it could be improved only by turning back the clock. We have our choice —because we are strong—of leading either group. We can make ourselves the last embattled stronghold of the past or the spearhead of humanity marching toward the future.
If we propose to take on the job of stopping Soviet expansion, not through the United Nations but by ourselves, upon whom are we couni-ing to stand by our side in the evert of a showdown? Upon France, where the communists polled the largest vote at the last election7 Upon Socialist Britain, in the throes of a crisis which has precipitated our crisis? Upon China torn by a civil war?
If we try to do this job with dollars, using as our tools whatver rickety remnants of the past may exist upon the periphery of the Soviet Union, sll we csn count upon will be loud cheers from the cohort». Franco, Peron and Sala/ar—anu their ilk in other countries.
The only way to stop the expan sion of Soviet nationalism is to stop the expansion of all nationalism, in eluding our own.
The only way to stop the expsn sion of communist totalitarianism « to create a positive counUrforce of dynamic democracy.
Until we arc ready to declare ourselves for world government—until we are ready to ally ourselves with the trend toward democratic «oc>«'-ism—we hsd better think twin before we tske on single-hsnded a tats, which belongs by rights to " United Nations —(The Csll)
