HOOVER IZZII BESEN KOHHJI V KONGRESU
Zahteva drastične zakone za izvedbo prohlbfelje. Enforsar-
skl aparat je temeljito *ra-
hiral _
Washington, D. C — Predsednik Hoover je 18. januarja vrgel bombo v obe zbornice kongresa, ko je predložil poročilo svoje preiskovalne komisije o polomu pravosodnega ustroja v deželi in v posebni poslanici priporočil, da se kongres takoj vrže na delo in drastično spremeni a-parat za izvajanje profriblčnega zakona. Komisija poroča, da je ta aparat absolutno skrahiral in da prohibicije v resnici nikjer ni, dasi obstoji ž deset let na papirju.	• .
Hoover priporoča šest drastičnih sprememb v Volsteadovem zakonu in v sistemu federalne justice. Prvič se mora vsa stavba zveznih sodišč reorganising: drugič Je povečati stare in zgraditi nove ječe ter spremeniti sistem pomiloščevanja; vsa obmejna straža ob Kanadi in Mehiki mora priti p$d eno vodstvo; sprememba v proceduri točenja kršiteljev; federalni komisarji morajo dobiti večjo oblast, da bodo lahko sami sodili v manjših slučajih brez porote; poseben zakon za Kolumbijski di-strikt in spojitev prohibičnega oddelka z justičnim departmen-
55/ ,	■ J
Mokri kongresniki in senator ji so takof Izjavili, da nove na redbe pomenijo nova nasilja in krvolitja; pomenijo, da se število aretacij zviša za 50 odstotkov. Hdoverjfcva komisija por&t;*** je bilo v zadnjem fiskalnem letu aretiranih 80,000 oseb v Združenih državah. Zdaj hočejo to število podvojiti!
Na drugi strani so suhi poslanci aplavdirali Hooverjeva priporočila. Ker imajo suhači večino v obeh zbornicah, ni naj manjšega dvoma, da bodo Hoover j eve reforme tudi sprejete. Medtem morajo vsa druga vprašanja počivati in kongres bo gr mel mogoče celo zasedanje o bedasti prohiblclji.

Albany, N. Y. — (F. P.) — Od leta 1920, ki je v zgodovin zaznamovano kot leto panike, še ni nastopila tako občutna brezposelnost v newyorlkih industrijah kot v mesecu decembru v preteklem letu.

Same dobre vesti
Osemindvajset novih društev S. N. P. J. v zadnji polovici leta 1929
Napredek naše jednote v preteklem letu, ki ga bele-žimo od tedna do tedna, se pokaže v celoti ta mesec ob zaključku knjig in polletnih računov. Za danes beležimo le sledeče:
V zadnjih šestih mesecih, to je v drugi polovici leta 1929, Je bilo ustanovljenih nič manj kot 28 novih društev &NJP J.!
Od novih društev je 16, torej veČina, angleško poslu-jočih.
Samo v mesecu decembru je bilo pri društvih sprejetih v jednoto 978 novih članov in članic obeh oddelkov.
Prihodnji teden pridejo na vrsto druge in natančnejše vesti in številke, ki bodo še bolj Razveseljive za člane.
Napredek je tam, kjer je zdravo življenje—in pri nas je zdravo življenje. Mladina, naia bodočnost, se je pričela oklepati S.N.P.J. Naša mladina v Pennsyl-vaniji, Ohiu, Wisconsinu, Kansasu, Coloradu in Mon-tani je stopila v akcijo za S.N.P.J. Njena agitacija je uspešna in članstvo je lahko ponosno na zagotovljeno bodočnost svoje organizacije. |
Naše geslo od vsega začetka je: Naprej!

Washington, D. C. — (F. P.) <-r Ameriški delsvski sloji morajo plačevati oderuške cene ss rajonske izdelke fn delavci, k! uposleni v rajonskih tovarnah, prejemajo najnižje mezde od vseh delavcev, ki so uposleni v ameriških industrijah, Je dejal senator Wheeler iz Montane, ko je ostro krltlslral propagatorje visoke carine na rajonske produkte kot je zamišljena v Haw-ey-8mootovi predlogi.
Wheeler Je čital številke Iz poročila bivšega carinskega komisarja David J. Lewisa o profltih American Viscose Co., ki pro-ducira dve tretjini rajonskih izdelkov. V preteklem letu je ta družba napravila 48% čistega dobička. TJstanovila se je 1.1922. V podjetje je vložila deset milijonov dolarjev, njen čisti dobiček pa je v preteklem letu znašal $88,806,000.
MNe vem, kako veliko vsoto denarja so rajonski tovarnarji poklonili v blagajno republikanske stranke v zadnji predsedniški kampanji." Je dejal Wheeler, "ali dobro vem, da Je bila njihova dartšUlvost bogato poplačana. Ameriško ljudstvo, ki kupuje izdelke te angleške družbe, ki operira ameriške tovarne, Je grdo Izkoriščano, kljub temu pa propagutorjl vlaoke carine na rajonske Icdelke žele. da bi bilo še bolj."
DuPont rajonsko podjetje Je drugo po obsegu in produkciji; nemško podjetje v Elizabeth-ton u, Tenn., Je tretje. Wheeler j* pokazal na dogodke v Eltaa-bethtonu v preteklem poletju kot tipičen dokaz, kakšne blagoslove uživajo ameriški delavci v rajonskih tovarnah. Visoka carina ščiti le bogate tovarnarje, d očim so delavci izpostavljeni izkoriščanj« In nimajo od visoke carine nobenega delčka.
Bivši carinski loblet Grundy, ki Je bU povsdlgnjen v zvesnegs

Industrijski mogotci naj uravnavajo politične smernice. Pre-na ameriško de-
Pou — (F. p.) ilja za politične znanosti je priobčila v svoji reviji članka od dveh najzagri-zenejših nasprotnikov organiziranega delavstva in zagovornikov specialnih privilegijev privatnega kapitalizma. N. B. Williams, zastopnik National Association of Manufacturers, piše, da bi morala vlada iskati nasvetov od organiziranega biznesa pr uravnavanju smernic narodne politlks. Murray T. Quigg, urednik revije "Law and Labor", je pa napisal ostro kfitiko proti gibanju organiziranega delavatva.
Williams pravi, da Je v Ameriki lis tisoče industrijskih voditeljev z bogatimi skušnjami, ki bi lahko alužlle v prilog polltlčn administraciji in industrijski civilizaciji, kajti Jasno je, da sta vlada In velebhmis bistveno eno n Isto. Organlsiranl podjetnik In industrijalci bi morali biti pri znani o* vlade kot prsdstsrflfki judstvs in vlsds bi se morels v Vseh slučajih ozirat* oa njihova >rl poročila.
■ Quigg trdi, da orgsnizirsao delavstvo Išče povsod le svoje posebne privilegije In se izo^ilm protitrustnim zakonom z namenom, da bojkotira. Ameriško ljudstvo ima več škode od organiziranega delavstva kot od or ganlsiranega kapitala
Tako Akademija za politično znanost V eni sami izdaji prlcb-Čuje dva napada na organizira no delavstvo. V enem zahteva, da organiziran kapital določa smernice vladni administered j I, v drugem pa je napad na pravice delavstva, ki zahteva kolektivno pogajanje v industrijskih sporih. _

Zirl, Slovenija, dne 23. decembra 1929. — Podpisani se nahajam v skrajno bednem položaju vsi«} moje dolgotrajne bolezni srčne napake. Boleham 2e od leta 1920 In danes sem Se vedno na istem kot sem bil v začetku moje bolezni, to je, da sem nezmožen za delo ter sem odvisen od milodarov. Vsled tega se obračam do milosrčnih rojakov v Združenih drŽavah, kateri me poznajo in jim je znano moje sta-nje iz časa, ko aem bil zastopnik Prosvete in Proletarca. Čudili 6o se, sakaj da se mučim, saj - da mi bodo pomagali vsak po svoji moči. Ker se brez sredstev ne more žhreti, sem bil prisiljen, da sem šel za zaslužkom, dokler sem mogel. Clan 8NPJ sem bil 14 let in 1. 1927 sem dobil odpravnino.
Končno sem se 1. 1927 podal v rojstni kraj v Slovenijo za zdravjem, v nadi, da se čez par mesecev spet vrnem v Združene države, kjer sem živel nad 20 let. Usoda pa je hotela drugače. Zdravje se mi že ni povrnilo ter je tako prtprečen moj povratek
v	Ameriko. Ostati moram tukaj, kjer ni doati kruha niti za zdrave ljudi, toliko manj pa za tiste, ki ga ne moremo sami zaslužiti, med katerimi sem ubogi siromak tudi jaz.
Obračam se direktno na vas, cenjeni rojaki, da mi pomagate po svojih močeh, želosten bo . zame božič in novo leto. Lahko si pač sami predstavite položaj, v katerem se nahajam, ako bi bili
vi	nad 9 let bolni, in nazadnje pa Če bi že imeli ženo bolno nad 9 mesecev, kot jo imam Jat. Kajti tudi ona se je borila za življenje, pa se je končno morala podvreči nevarni operaciji, katero je večno prestala, a za težko delo jfc tudi ona ne bo več sposobna. Zato vas ponovno prosim, poifia-gajte mi po svojih močeh. Vsakdo ve, da javno prositi je težko, ker pa ne vidim drugega izhoda, se poslužujem tega. Prosim vas. pomagajte mi!

Napredek SNPJ v letu 1929 je bil v reani-d lep. GL tajništvo dane« Ae nima natančnih številk ta celo leto, imelo pa Jih bo pripravlja-ne la objavo prihodnji teden, ko bodo zaključeni in od gL nadzornega odbora potrjeni val računi za zadnjih iest meaecev.
Danes je znano le toliko — kar poročamo na drugem msstu-da m je v zadnjih 6 meeecih ustanovilo 28 novih društev in pd teh je šest-najst anglelko poslujočih. Samo v decembru je priatopilo približno tisoč novih članov.
Gornje pomeni, da kredit za večji del napredka gre nail mladini. Večino novih druitev v letu Je ustvarila mlajša generacija. Dru-fttva angleško poslujoče mladine naraščajo neprenehoma mesec sa mesecem. Naša mladina ae najbolj giblje v tem oziru v Pennsylvaniji, Ohiu, Wisconsinu, Kansasu, Coloradu in Mon-tani; razume se, da v Illinolsu tudi ne zaostaja, toda največ novih društev se je ustanovilo v omenjenih drŽavah.
Ta pojav je razumljiv in naraven. Prvič se mlajša generacija oklepa naše jednote, ker vidi dobre goapodarske pogoje, drugič pa ima pri 8NPJ zajamčeno svobodo mišljenja In lzra-tanja. Dalje nam ta pojav rasodeva, da je premoč v narastku članatva v bodoče pri mladini in ne več pri odrastlih naseljencih. Kar je starih naseljencev, ao že vsi organizirani (Izjeme ne štejejo) in fikani vsak pri svoji jed-noti. Sprememb bo malo. Novih priaeljencev je pa tako malo, da ne morejo več delati doatl rszHks, pa naj se pridružijo kamor hočejo. Izjema je še v Kanadi, kjer društva SNPJ obstoje večinoma iz svetih priseljencev. Tam je še polje za organiziranje imigrantov.
Bodočnost naše jednote je torej v tu rojeni mladini. Naša glavna akrb mora biti, da mladina ohrani svobodomiselna načela jednote, ako hoče imeti napredek.
V znamenju teh načel se je jednota rodila in dvignila na višino svojega sedanjega napredka. V znamenju teh načel. In samo teh načel, bo napredovala tudi v bodoče. Mladi voditelji, ki stoje m čelu mladinekega gibanja, ee dobro zadevajo tega dejstva. Ti ao naše upanje.
Ekonomiki determinizem
. Ekonomski determinizem je naravni zakon. Kaj pa pomenil Pomeni nič drugega kot to, da prva skrb ljudi Je, da imajo živež, obleko in atanovanje in način pridobivanja teh potrebščin odločuje o vseh drugih vprašanjih in oblikah življenje človeške druAbe. Produkcija potrebščin odločuje o vsem drugem. Kadar se spremeni način produkcija, ae nujno apremeni vse drugo in razvoj drutbe pride v novo dobo.
To je ekonomski determinliem ali s drugo be»edo: materialistično pojmovsnje (nazlranje) Zgodovine ali historiški materializem. Ta zakon je ključ, ki nam odpre knjigo prave zgodo-* vine. Edino v luči ekonomskega determlnizma gledana in proučevana igodovina človeške drutbe in posameznih ljudstev Je resnična. Vsaka druga zgodovina je večjldel ibirka lepih in ne-lepih pravljic. Mnogo teh pravljic smo slišali in čitali v šoli pod staro Avatrijo. Danes ni nič bolje; še vedno uče pravljice namesto zgodovine. V Ameriki tudi. Zgodovinarji stare šole še danes pogrevajo sto In stoletne zmote In neresnice.
Očitek, ki se sempatja sliši, da J« ekonomski determinizem gola teorija brez podlage ali celo politična dogma. Je puhlica. Beseda dogma sploh ne spada sem. Ce je kaj dogmatične-ga. je stars laži-zgodovlna. Kkonomskl determinizem je znanstveno utrjeno dejstvo.
Kdor reeno študira , zgodovino s stališča ekonomskega determlnizma. si lahko raztohna-čl razne dogodke in spremenil*. Izvedel bo prave vzroke dviganja Izpadanja posameznih drla v; spoznal bo, da razvoj ljudstev nI bil odvisen od posameznih herojev (velikih mol) in vladarjev, ki Jih stara zgodovina povzdiguje med polbogove, pač pa so vlsdarji bili plod sodobnih ekonomskih razmer; videl bo, da stari Rim nI padel zaradi kakih moralnih propalostl, temveč vsled ekonomskih činiteljev. Dalje razvidi temeljne vzroke preseljevanja narodov, odkritja Amerike, raznih vojn. verskih in političnih konfliktov, sploh vseh pojavov, ki se še danes opažajo v vseh vejah tivljenja človeške drutbe.

City, Kaunas. — Naše društvo št. 408 na svoji redni . iji meseca decembra je razpravljalo o predloženi iniciativi za starostno zavarovanje. Clan-stvo našega društva se ne strinja a predlogoma, ker ae nam enostavno daje priboljška za 26c na mesec plačevat. Za to plačevanje se nam kasneje nič drugega ne zagotovi, kakor še povrhu izredne naklade.
V podkrepitev gornjega naj nam bo dovoljeno našteti še sledeče vzroke:
Ker te imamo »klad izrednih podpor, v kateri aklad vaak član plačuje 6 centov na meaee, kar znese recimo na 40 tiaoč članov lepo vsoto, * okroglih $2000 na mesec. Ce ae namerava podpira ti člane po deset dolarjev na mesec, tukaj ie imamo podporo za 200 članov mesečno. Brez dvoma še danes nahaja v SNPJ več kot 200 članov, Id ao vredni in gotovo potrebni podpora.
Ker v predlogu je, da upr. odbor v alučfcju epidemije, prirod-ne kataatrofe, nakazuje podporo, ki jo amatra za nujno. Bratje in sestre, tukaj si dovoljuje g|, odbor plačevati in razpolagati za nekaj, kar niso še nikoli niti najbogateše organizacije, katero imajo na razpolago vse finančne ugodnosti.
Ker članatvo SNPJ tvorijo skoraj 100% sami delavci. Po iz-kušnl lestvici se povprečno živ ljenje delavca računa eno z dru gim pfctdeset let. Torej bo redek, kateri bo dočakal petinšeatdeaet lot.
Ker članatvo sestoji največ iz družinakih članov, namreč od štiri do oaem članov v eni dru-tlni, In znani fakt je, da ena glava največ brlge vodi in en sam plača. Premislimo, kako bodo prizadeti člani, recimo pet do osem članov po 25c v eni družini.
Kako bo mogoče danea enemu delavcu ostati član do petinšestdeset let, če bomo šil sedanjim potom s plačevanjem. Premislimo. Danes se delavce meče na cesto, starejše kot pet in štlri-deaet let. Današnja mladina ae vae bolj briga zw nekaj, kar želi In potrebuje takoj, malo ali pa nič se ne briga za bodoče all starost. Ce bi nam bilo mogoče u-vesti, da dokler je član mlad in ima vsakdanji zaslutek, da pla-Čuje, kadar pa oatari, da nekaj prejema, bi bilo dobro.
Današnje Industrijske razmere, nestalni zaslužek, znitanje pla<' In pa milijoni brezpoaelnlh! Naša sveta doltnost je, če kako mo goče, znižati vplačevanje, ker to sedaj poleg vseh težav nekateri al odtrgajo od vsakdanjega kruha. da Imajo za plačati avoj mesečni aaeament
Predloga 1 In 2 ata na raz pravi, katera bo članstvo imelo Ifriliko zavreči all apVajeti. Clan atvu In krajevnim društvom priporočamo, da glaauje proti ob* ms predlogoma. Za društvo it 408, Richard Spaček, pred«. Valentine K risa, taj.
mladine, in pbvišanje aseamen-ta'za tek sklad bi zelo ustavilo napredek naših mladinskih organizacij* Ce bi pa gl. odbor spremenil obveznost plačevanja v to-likj>, da bi se zavarovali aamo tisti člani, ki ao pri volji plačevati v sklad, sem prepričan, da »e ne bi priglasilo toliko Članov, da bi ae mogel sklad sam vzdrževati, in še tisti bi bili le starejši člani.
Recimo, da bi bili vsi argumenti, ki sem jih navedel, ničeT vi, bi vendar pokojnina $10.00 na mesec ne odpravila mnogo revščine staremu delavcu in ako nima kaj »vojih prihrankov, mu bo še vedno odprta pot v slrpt-nišnico.
To je aamo nekaj argumentov, lahko bi jih navedel več. Članstvo SNPJ stori najbolje, da zaveže oba iniciativna predloga. A-ko bosta oba predloga propadla, svetujem gl. odboru, naj opusti vsako nadaljevanje načrtov za starostno zavarovalnino, kajti prepričan sem, da SNPJ ni poklicana, da reši to pereče vprašanje, niti Jcaka druga podporna organizacija.
Moje mnenje je: Ako hočemo, da bo to vprašanje res kdaj re Seno v prid delavskemu pokretu tako, da bodo stari in izmučeni delavci imeli svoj košček kruha na stara leta, moremo to napraviti edino na dan volitev v postavodajne zbornice, s tem, da oddamo svoje glasdve delavskim zastopnikom. Edino postavodajne zbornice z dobrimi delavskimi poslanci nam zamorejo prinesti res pravo starostno zavarovance.
Upam in želim da članstvo popolnoma ovrže oba načrta, ki bi bila v slučaju, da je sprejet e-den ali drugi, veliko breme organizacije in v splošno nezado-volnost članstva. Joe Vidmar, član društva št. 204.
Frontenac. Kansas. — Slabe ekonomske razmere ao počasi prisilile delavstvo, da se je pričelo oprijemati zadružništva, ki skokoma napreduje, posebno v evropskih deželah. Zato tudi tukaj naši ln drugI priseljenci, ki so prinesli ideje zadružništva I seboj, vedno več mislijo, kako al izboljšati gmotne razmere po-tom vzajemnosti.
Ena takih ustanov je naš pogrebni zavod, ki beleži lep na predek. Po poročilu poslovodje je imel v preteklem letu nekako enajst tisoč dolarjev prometa, kar znači blizu $900 dobička, ki bi bil razdeljen delničarjem, če bi ne imeli še dolg. tako je (»a deloma pokrit stari dolg. Skušalo se bo prodati Še več delnic iti s tem zainteresirati splošno tukajšnjo slovensko javnost. Zavod je tukaj., napreduje In Iti mora naprej.
Poleg tega imamo te več kot par deaetletij obstoječo federacijo društev SNPJ. ki sklicuje svoje i c red no zasedanje sa četr-' to nedeljo t. m., dne 28. Jan. ob | dveh pop. v navadnih prtwtorlh v Prontenacu. Knns. Poleg dni-j gih važnih zadev prideta tudi v razpravo iniciativna predloga gl. odbora za staroatno zavaro-* vanj*^.
Naše mnenje je, da ae prihrani več, že itak omejenega prostora v obligmtni številki Proeve-te, ako tukaj skupno razpravljamo o teh predlogih in rezultat objavimo v Proeveti. Proai ae vsa društva, da pošljejo svoje zastopnike. Vabi se tudi vse o-stalo članatvo, spadajoče k tej federaciji, da se udeleži te razprave. Bo tudi volitev odbora za tekoče leto.
Jefca fiular, zapisnikar.
Bridgeport, O. — Društvo it. 18 je na stoji redni mesečni seji dne 5. januarja razmotrivalo o iniciativi predloženi po gl. odbo-ru, ki vaebuje dva predloga z o žirom na starostno zavarovanje. V U namen naj bi zvišali ases-meht izrednih podpor od 5c na 10c. Naše društvo je proti obe ma predlogoma.
Proti prvemu navaja za vzrok to, ako bi se ašeament povišal, pomeni, da bo stalno višji, kar bi slabo vplivalo na pridobivanje novih članov in ker že aedaj večina članstva težko zmaguje se dan j i asesment vsled delavake depresije. Ako bi bil sklad pre. kratek, naj se prilično založi iz redni aaeament, da se sklad vzdrži kot zahteva zakon ali pravila. ,
Naše društvo Je odločno pro-ti predlogu za starostno zavarovanje. Glavni vzrok temu Je to, ker bi bilo zvišanje asesmenta veliko breme za članatvo. Kajti 25c asesment v ta sklad bi dolgo ne vzdržal in kmalu bi se moral zvišati na 60c in celo na $1. Clan-stvo se hitro stara, mladih pa ne pristopi toliko, da bi zamogll v bodoče s25cta sklad vzdržavatl. Vsled teffr naše društvo apelira, da se s tem počaka do prihodnje konvencije.

Milwaukee, Wia. — V Prosve-ti z dne 4. decembra. 19(29, je gi odbor SNPJ razpisal iniciativi da tako upošteva sklep 9. redite konvencije. Predložena ata bili dva načrta v razpravo ln člaiv atvo ima sedaj priliko, da pove svoje mnenje, če odobrava prvi ali arugi načrt ali sploh nobenega.
Kot mnogoletni član SNPJ m gg^ ^ kftj tedaj delegat 9. redne konvencije si na4n	Ali iinrTie ^
Štejem v dolžnost, da povem svoje mnenje, aH bi bilo koristno za jednoto In članstvp Če se sprejme prvi ali drugi omenjeni načrt; Preden preidem na razpravo, izjavljam, da sem vedno bil za starostno zavarovanje in tudi bom v bodoče, vendar sem prepričan, da tako zavarovanje mora prinesti uspeh v splošnem delavskem pokretu, katerega večino tvori SNPJ le potom zveznega kongresa, oziroma potom državnih postsvoda*. Vem, da državno zavarovanj? ne prjde v poštev v tej razpravi. Omenil sem to le radi boljšega umeiva-nja. Kar pride v tej razpravi v poštev Je samo to: Ali bi kateri omenjenih načrtov ugodil čla* nom .ki si želijo starostno zavarovanje, ne da bi pri tem postavil v nevarnost napredka SNPJ?
Pazno aem prečital oba načrta, kakor tudi pojaanilo gl. odbora in prišel do zaključka, da je samo načrt št. 2, ki bi ae strinjal z željo 9. redne konvencije.
Načrt Št. 1 nam le predstavlja točko 8., člen XXII., stran 84. naših pravil, katera se tiče sklada "izrednih podpor". Deveta konvencija je povišala asesment v ta sklad za S rente, in sprejem tje načrta št. 1 bi pomenilo zo-petno povišanje asesmenta za ftc. kar nikakor ni priporočljivo v današnjih slabih delavskih razmerah. Poleg tega bi pa sklep 9. redne konvencije radi starostnega zavarovanja še vedno oetal nerešen.
Načrt št. 2 pravi, da naj se u-n t s nov i poseben sklad za starostno zavarovanje, v katerega bo moral vsak član plačevati 2ftc. in is katerega bi prejemal $10.00 mesečno kadar postane 86 let star. Tudi ta načrt mi ne ugaja, dasiravno vem. da Je nemogoče gl odboru razpisati kaj boljšega. Ta načrt obveže vsakega člana, da prispeva 2%c v ta aklad. brez raalike ali se hoče zavarovati za starost ali ne.
Jollet, IIL — Ko smo prečital! iniciativo z dne 4. dec., prlobče-no v Prosvetl, in isto po naiem najboljšem razumu preučili, smo nehote prišli do zaključka, da ni na mestu. Razlogov je več, ki jih ne bomo razlagali, razen enega, ki ae nam dozdeva bistven.
Prepričani smo, da ta iniciativa ne bo nikdar našla prostora v pravifih SNPJ. Ni drugega kot le gotovi stroški, katere bi z lahkoto prlštedlli.
V slučaju pa, da bi bila želja stfrih članov, kateri po navadi

Pltsta veselica Pionirjev

Situacija illinoiskih rudarjev
A. Garden.
"Namesto, da bi nam dajali pogum v sedanjem boju, držite pa a Fishwickom," je očitek nekaterih naših rudarjev napram Proeveti. Ta očitek se nanaša na zadnjo izpuhtelo stav-ko, katero je vodila National Miner*a unija v okrožju Taylorvilla. Nanašd se, ker se "v Chi-cagu" nismo ogrevali za stavko in podpirali unijo, ki jo je vodila. V boljše razumevanje naj izjavim, da tukaj ne govorim v imenu nikogar; v kratkem hočem podati le svoje misli o situaciji illinoiskih rudarjev.
Navidezno je tekoči notranji boj med Le-wisom in voditelji 12. rudarskega distrikta na škodo rudarjem; ker postavlja organizacijo v nevarnost. V resnici je pa ta izbruh med najvažnejšimi dogodki, do katerih je prišlo v zadnjem letu v ameriškem delavskem gibanju. Radi situacije, v kateri se nahajajo rudarji in predvsem pa UMW, mora ta boj roditi le dobre sadove. Edino, kar se lahko obžaluje, je to, da ae ta boj ni pričel vsaj štiri ali pet let prej. Sicer je bil v letu 1926 v zamahu, vendar pa je bila Lewisova mašina še dovolj močna, da je s pomočjo goljufije, volilne tatvine in potom strahovlade porazila rebelno gibanje, kateremu je načeloval Brop%.
Niti najmanjšega dvoma ni, da so Lewisu kot predsedniku unije šteti dnevi. Sel bo v po-zabljenoat kot oseba, ki je pognala milijone rudarjev in njihovih družin v največjo bedo, pomanjkanje in trpljenje in kot največji tiran in najbrezobzimejši človek v dosedanji zgodovini delavskih bojev.
Tudi ne dvomim, da bo v prihodnjih par letih prišlo do ponovne reorganizacije rudarjev in da bo pri tem delu igrala glavno vlogo illinoiska distriktna organizacija. To je glavni vzrok, da smatram ohranjenje 12. distrikta za najvažnejše vprašanje ne le za illinoiske, marveč tudi za vse neorganizirane rudarje, katerih je nad pol milijona. S tega stališča je tudi razumljivo, zakaj se človek ne more navduševati za slične, bedaste eskapade kot jih je pred par tedni vprizorila komunistična National Miners Unija v okrožju Taylorvila.
Vsak, ki več ali manj pozna težke razmere illinoiskih rudarjev, bo rad priznal, da je rebeliranje proti njim razumljivo, ker trditev, da rudar nima danes nobene besede pri delu in da se od njega zahteva le unijske prispevke, ni brez vsake podlage. In tisti, ki smatrajo obstoječe razmere neznosnim, morajo u-poštevati tudi neznosne razmere, v katerih se nahaja distriktna organizacija. Zapomniti si je treba, da je mezdna lestvica v Illlnoisu veliko večja kot je zaslužek v neunijskih premogo-rovih; v mnogih slučajih je plača illinoiskih rudarjev polovico večja od zaslužka neunijskih rudarjev.
In ker prihaja illinoiski premog v konkurenco z neunijskim premogom, je razumljivo, da skušajo illinoiski operatorji na druge načine znižati obratovalne stroške. Drugače bi ne mogli konkurirati in bi bili prisiljeni zapreti svoje rove, ker v izgubo ne more nikdo trgovati — vsaj ne za dolgo časa in ne da bi govorili o profitu — pa naj bo država ali pa privatnik. To je ekonomaki zakon, kateremu je podvrženo vsako podjetje. In pri tem seveda pa trpe organizirani rudarji, ki danes v resnici nimajo drugih ugodnosti kot golo lestvico, kar je vsekakor velikega pomena.
Za illinoiske rudarje je potrebno, da gledajo v bodočnost: kako razširiti unijo na vsa važnejša neunijska polja. Ako tega ne store, bodo v par letih še qb to organizacijo, ki je v sedanji situaciji edino upanje rudarjem. v težkem položaju se navadni ljudje kaj radi zatečejo k slepi sili, in v delavskem gibanju, bodisi te ali druge dežele, je bil storjen že mar-sfkak nepremišljen korak, ki se je britko maščeval nad delavstvom.
Resnica je, da vodstvo illinoiske organizacije ni idealno, da ga razjeda korupcija in da stoji na nizkim intelektualnim nivoju in da je med njimi veliko število ljudi, ki gledajo v prvi vrati na lastne interese. Vendar je pa to stvar članstva, ki ga lahko odpravi, ako hoče in ako je sposobno. Ako pa ni tega med rudarji, potem ni sploh nobenega upanja na boljšo bodoč-noat Vendar pa tudi v tem osiru ni položaj tako obupen kot ga slikajo nasprotniki dis-triktne organizacije. Administracija, ki je pripravljena izdajati tako izvrsten list kot je "Illinois Miner", ki Je med najboljšimi delsv-sklmi listi v Ameriki od vsega pričetka izhajanja, ne more biti ne toliko slaba in imeti toliko grehov na svoji grbi.
Glede komuniatične National Miners Unije naj se odprto izrssim, da nimam nikakega upanjs, ds bi bila kdaj kos organizatoriČnemu delu, ki zre v obraz rudarjem. Ni Je strokovne organizacije v Ameriki, ki bi zamogla postati sils v posamezni industriji, ako je stroga pripadnica komunističnega, aocialletičaega, verskega aH ps kakega drugega gibanja. In NMU nI nič drugega kot branža komunističnega gibanja, od katerega jemlje ukaza in inapfracijc. Za organiziranje rudarjev bo potrebno sodelo-vsnjs vsega delavstva. Tega pa ne more doseči nobena organizacija, ako ni v prvi vrsti stnokovna po avojem ustroju in težnjah, detav-ako progresivna in ne repek kake poHtIČne ali verske frakcije«
Pri reorganislranju rudarjev more biti uspešna le rudarska organizacija. Ns mislim, ds ga bo izvršil element Lewisovega tipa. Morala gs bo Izvršiti minolsks distriktna organi sac i j a. Pri tem delu jI bodo pomagale bogate tradicije UMW unije in drugi elementi, ki streme. da rudarjem zopet zašije lepše, svobodnej-

Editorial Notes
„„ that the Jubilee membership campaign ia extended our local lodges can formula* effective prof ram« ondar competent guidance and increase their membership conslderebly. Kaeh local membership committal' should draft • comprehendve plan by which the present membership drive can ba made productive in the number of new member« gelned. Make It your duly to bring at least one new member into year lodge before die close of the drive. Tell your friends and acquaintances, eligible for admittance, all the ouUUnd-facta and benefits the organisation afford«. By doing so your goal in membership can be reached within the next two months.
YOUR lodge meetings can be made attractive and pleasant as well as orderly and well disciplined, never stiffened into a prison-like place, with proper amount of humor and cheerful atmosphere. Applying this method a lot more could be accomplished than by aggregating the members or to put them into a school-like discipline. Twin them properly, let them be responsible, appeal to their sense of decency and self-respect. and harmony and good conduct will prevail at your meeting*. The business side of the meeting should always be disposed of in the shortest time pocrible, which does not mean that superficiality and reckleea-should replace order and businesslike transactions.
IfS the literary contest now. Many more will enter this competition, no doubt, than the drawing contest conducted by the Prosveta last year, in which fourteen members exhibited their wares. The present contest offers • much larger field and more young people will be able to enter, presenting either short stories or poems. A considerable number of our members are attending high-schools and colleges where they are called upon rsgulaiiy to present themes ds-veloplng elements required in short stories. There are alto msny former students within oar folds who have the ability of telling their experiences In ths way that would make a short story. See if yon can cop one of the prises offered by tip official organ.
11THBN sending in your report to the Prosveta make ▼» tt a point to present a neat copy. Unless you are in the habit of sending regularly "feature" yarns, never mix your reports by telling in every other sen-tence of different phase of your lodge activities. Sep-mate your reports. Sports news items should be Written on a separate shset of paper. Write always on eii aide of the paper only as the other side of the paper the Editor will completely disregard. To follow these rules is simple. Write plainly and ehrsy* attest your full name to the letter. Anopymeue eominunIc.-tiene Will not be noticed, and rejected communications wfll not be returned.

Kantian dualism, end left us nothing in its stead. Th« feeling of duty or obligation is a psychological reality which cannot be denied, but it is not dependent upon a categorical imperativa—it ia a product of the aoeial instinct found in all gregarious animals. Thus modern ethics ia baaed, not upon the dogmas of Christianity or the idealistic philosophy, but upon solid biological facts, as outlined at length in the evolutionary writings of Herbert Spencer and others.	^ __
Man ii a sodal vertebrate, and like all animals of this type, has two. sets of duties—one concerned with his own individual Welfare, the other with the welfare of the group to which he belongs. The two obligation« pre equally natural and equally neceasary. The motivs behind one group of responses is called self-love or egotism, that which conditions the other set of responses is known a« altruism—regard for others. A social animal like man cannot live unto himself alone, and he must reftliae that the benefit« of organised so-dety are not free, but mu«t be paid for by assuming a share of the burden common to the sodal group. The prosperity of the community means the prosperity of the individual members of th«t community, and an injury to the group aa a whole 1« an injury to each individual member thereof.
The balance of these two natural tendencies, the moral equality of egotism and altruism, ia the fundamental principle which underlies all rational morality Bven the Golden Bale of the Christian«—"Do unto others aa ye would that they should do unto you"— rscognk«« our duty to ourselves as w«U a« our duty to our fellows. In dealing with this matter I have laid down three propodtions which I consider fundamental (1) Both egdsm and altruism are natural impulses, and both are necessary to ths prsssrvption of ths family and society^ Egoism eecurss ths pre-servstion of the individual xsltruism secure« the pre-servstion of ths spsrisaT (1)^« duties which society imposes apon ite members ere merely higher developments of ths social Instincts, which arc preeent In many other aoeial animals besid« man. (8) The ethics adopted by eiviltaed human beings are always dependent upon their view of the world in general, and ars therefore ahrays in a more or leaa intimate aaaociation with their religious beUgfft.
The hifheot precept of our monistic ethic« cannot be bettor expressed than it is always in ths Golden Bule* which Jseos rsducsd to ths «impl« phra*: "Love thy neighbor «• thy«df." Makr expressed our own conviction exactly when he added that "there is no greater commandment than this." Although we agTe^ absolute-ly with the Chrlsttens in regard to the value of this noble ethical prlndple, we cannot refrain from pointing out the historical fact that it did not originate with Jeeue of Naaareth, deapite the claim« of aome of hie more enthuriaatic follower«. The Golden Bute is asvsrel centuries older than Chiatianity, and many of the wise pun of antiquity recognised its supremacy in ethics. Pittacus, who lived in Pagan Greece six hundred and twenty years before Christ was born, used the Itive form of the maxim: "Do not that to thy ibor that thou wouldst not suffer from him." Tho Chineae philoeopoher Confudus said, some five „»w.ed years before Chriets "Do to every as thou would have him do to thee, and do not unto another what thou wouldst not have him do to thee. Thle precept only doet thou need t lt *» the foundation of all other comandmenU." And Confucius, be it remembered, knew nothing of Jehovah, and rejected both God ahd Immortality. Arletotle, one of the greatest of the Greek philosophers, taught about the middle of the fentth century B. C.: "We must act towftrds others a« wish other« to act toward« u«." The semis'sentiment was expressed by many other Pagan moralists—Thales, Isocratee, Aristippus, Sextua—ajl of whom lived several centuries before the Christian era. In other words, the Golden Buls Is not characteristics^ Christian at all, but was deduced independently by many fcaat mm, et many different times and plaoss. Other
wtto ws should probably awiume that it cam« erlglnel-ly from some ancient Chinee, Semitic, or Buddhistic soufcc, along with n«#rly all of the other doctrines attributed to the Carpenter of Nesareth.	k

T/IKTOR Zeletnik, muscular product
» of the hilli and vales of Slovenia but now s full-fledged member of the mining crow of the Pennsylvania-Allegheny Coal Mine« company, stood at the entrance of the shaft awaiting his turn te be taken down into the bowels of Mother Earth. Not a very romantic job to bo sure, but Viktor had other dreams of life in America, A small farm somewhere in the West where he and his wife Xexa could live the quiet, peaceful existence they both yearned for. There also their children, Franc, Anka, Pavle and Mitsi could grow up amidst surroundings more desirable than this dirty mining town.
It was just two years now since Nesa had joined him in America, bringing with her the three oldest Children. Mitai, however, had been born in America. Viktor had had a hard struggle te save the money to enable him ho bring his loved ones to America and it had taken much pinching and scraping to furnish the little three room shack they called home. But better days were coming, for wasn't Viktor making bettor wages and wasnt he next in line for promotion as foreman? Viktor smiled — it was good to be slive.
As he stopped Into the shaft, his eyes wandered across the row of miners' huts to the last one on the left. Eight hours and he would be back there playing with the youngs-ters and making plans with Neta about the little home in the West. Slowly the cage descended and the little home was shut from sight. Two o'clock In the afternoon. Three sharp shrieks ot the whistle burst ov«r the little town. Women and children came running out and quickly collected at the mouth of the mine. Danger! How Well they knew the signal those women and children, who fearfully waited and prayed for the safety of thflr fathers, brother* and sons. As slarm spread, the first cage resched the top and poured out men. Women cried with happiness as they found their mates on top and safe.
The cage went down again. More men came. Three times it came and deposited its human jpargo safely and then, to the watchers on top, came a low rumbling sound. It grew in volume until it burst with a defeating roar. Mine IB had ca^ed in.
Neca stood fearftilly at the mine entrance, her face strained, her eyes glistening with tears. With her stood many other women, some crying out bud, others just standing numbly b»\ They watched as ihe men of the town worked frantically to clear the entrance and reach their comrades below. There was still hope—plenty of hope, the women ifrere assured.
Daybrfak. Another day had come and still the women watched and hoped. The crews were working desperately, but it would be many hours before they would reach the entombed men.
Hour upon hour dragged by and midnight approached. Then there was a shout from below—the relief crews just reached the men.
Another fifteen minutes and then the cage slowly creaked to the top.
They had been too late. Gas had seeped through and the men were all suffocated. Nine Uves loot—a sacrifice on the alter of progress.
The men were duly buried by the company and after a few conference between the officials of the compety and the stote and federal labor com-missions, the matter was closed. Yes, it had been a very regrettabls incident, but ft was an unavoidable ac-
cident and the company felt they had done all they could by burying the men and paylt« the widows a few dollars.
• a *
Four children huddled around a despairing woman in the shack of the late Viktor Zeletnik.
"Mama, why do yon eey?" Nine-year old Frank asked the question, his dark brown eyes filled with tears.
"Mama, when is papa coming home?"
Nesa's heart wae broking. How could she tell them that the fsthqr they adored was no more? How could she explain to them that there was only twenty dollars left In the world for them and then what? There was no work she could do In this town. There wasn't enough money to go anywhere else. Others in the town were too busy seeking out their own existence to think about the Zeletnik family.
Nesa thought of the railroad tracks back of the town. Yes, after all there was one way.out.
From the shack next door came the sound of a woman's singing. A woman who was happy because her husband was safe. - The wi^rds of "Na planlncah solnčlce sije,* came to,.the ears of Nesa, tantalising her. mad doning her. How she longed for her old home, for thorn fields of Slovenia, The words cut deep Into heir heart. Something Mad te be done Immediately.
In the distance a train whistled. Nesa gave a start, she must do it bo fore she lost her nerve. Quickly fathering the four children she tufted for a last look around the shack. As she turned te the door, there wae a knock. Then the door opened and a stranger came ip.
"Dober večer." He noted the pus-sled looks on their faces und then oontilnued. "t know you will pardon me for coming i|) like this, but knocked several times and no one
Snswered. t am the secretary of the
. N. P. J.—the society your husband belonged to when he lived In Morion and in which he continued his mem bership. As we are so far away it was impossible tor us to attend the funeral, however. I hope that you will forgive us for not paying our respects." *
tye*a gazed at' him astonished. "But my husband did not belong to any society—that is, I dont know anything about it." , The man smiled understanding^. "Oh yes, he did- He belonged ever since he came to America and alwaye paid his dues promptly. He probably thought you wouldn't quite under stand the god work we are doing so he never mentioned it to you. But" —-the man fumbled ip his pockets and drew out a few sheets of legal looking paper and a check—"here is a check for one thousand dollars, the amount your husband was insured for. We hope that it will help you.H
With a cry Nesa kiaaed the man's hand. Soon she told him the entire story, the despair, and her determination to kill herself and her children. When she had fintahed she received his assurance to help her all he possibly could to put the litUe family back on a solid footing.
The rain of tragody was over. The rainbow had come out again and Nesa had found it the end, not a pot of gold, but the help and spirit of the S. N. P. J.
In the distance could be heard the ahriek of the train as It gam ,a departing whistle. Nesa smiled. And the farm was aot a dream, but a reelity.

One of the moat' unuaual upsets In SNPJ sports was the wonderful bowling of the Progressives who took our boys Into camp winning two ganws out of three. Wait tlD<iiext time.— One of the outstanding features of Tuesdays' Recreation night was the bawling of lilt' Ann Scherokes, who rolled on the Straggler boys' team. Good work, Ana. V.. .	*„,♦
The Stragglers «NK(l(girl bowling champs took the i P^jwewtves for three straight nlm scoot features.— Just another aealp to <)ur string of basketball victories; ws remain undefeated. The boys jourpsyed to No-bile, O., with a lend of eager rooters and played a thriller, winning by 17 to 18.

Topic« of the Week
Hon. George W, Norris. United Statee Senator from Nehmsks, recently in a public speech said: | "Wealth, when combined in Immense quantities, to always a stumbling block in the advancement of civillaation. Combinations snd trusts formed for profit bring in thslr wake a new kind of slavery. Under the leadership of Abraham Lincoln we sbclished human slavery but slam that day them has grown up in our country powerful combinations and monopolies which were unhesrd of then. Tbem never was a time In the history of our country when combined wealth possessed the power over government, which it posscees today. Economic slavery is the ultimate result of complete combination of money, and economic slavery Is as cruel, as msrclless, and as affect! as slavery based upon the color of the human skln.H ^ see
The history of ths progress of Dm civilisation is a continuous con-teat between thorn who would give greater power of governniant Into ths hands of the people snd those who am opposed to change. It Is the experience of human nature that men endowed with power will straggle to thci utmost before surrendlng any ef It. The natural thing for t h oso having power over their fallows ia to stretch their authority to the limit and to reach uut with groedy hands for mom and mom power over the control of their fellow betnga. This is even true In fraternal societies, Our society had such an experience at the last convention when certain powers endeavored to form upon our organisation certain new by-lows under whtoh a minority of three officers could do aa they pleamd in all our soclsty's affairs.
In days of aavagery and barbarism, the king waa supreme. Ho ruled with a<i iron hand as he had the right to take (he Ufa of anyone without being held accountable for his aot. In days of human slavery, ths master or lord had the sxolusive right over his slaves as they were his ohatteis. He could do with them as he pleased, oven puniehing them with a lash aa long aa he did not kill thsm outright. If he did kill his slave, the master would be tried by his fallow lords and be acquitted. In our present oivlltaatlon, the worker reoslves a wage, but he often finds, ospsclally In mining and textile towns, thst his master owns tho miam, mills, factories, stores and even ths homss. Ths economic stsvs to permitted to pur-chsse his necessities of life on credit st his mhster stores. When ths slave receives his pay check and pays off his dsbts hs discovers thst hs has not esrned enough money to psy sll of his debts at his master's establish-ments. The economic slave, If he rebels, is Immsdiately ousted from his Job and horns, and Is refused credit at his maater's stores. Thus sconomlc slavery Is as cruel, as meral-Isss snd as effective as slavery based upon the color of the human skin, a * •
Human slavery based on ths solor of ths skin wss abolished in AmwrU « during the elril war. It waa abollahed in the northern states, beginning with Vcrmeat ia 1777 and ending with Now Jermy In 1804. Mush personal sacrifices wore made by Bsnjgmln Lundy, Willlsm Lloyd Qsrrislon, Elijah P. Lovsjoy, Wendell Phillips, Charles Summer, John Brown, toad Ing apoettoe ef the cause of abolition of human slavery. They aim were aided in their efforts by soms of ths best intellect in Ameriear-Wlillem E. Charming, R. W. Emerson, ths poets—Bryant, Longfsllow, pm-emi nently Whlttler and Whitman, have spoken on this theme with no uacer tain sound. In the political field, there was Abraham Unroln. During the years of 1884 and 1H88 the re publican party was organised with its chief purpose of saving the union snd abolishing slavery because a gov ernment cannot endure permanently, half slave and half free.

Off the President's Bat;
Adieu
Clcvelsnd.—Well friends. I'm sUll "Comrsdos' President, that is until January 81*-V P* m«, when some on« elm will take over the reins, and youll ham to read this column Just once mom.
The year 1888 waa the "(ioldca Year" In the htolory of the "Cent-rede" Lodge aa far aa športa, social aetivitlee and memberehlp gain waa cone a rood. The number of near members compares very favorably with the leaders of this laat campaign. Wo toad all of the todgee, young and old In Cleveland aad have reerhed the 888 mark. Looking hark a few years ago when we had 18 member«, one must admit that a remarkable increase has taken place.
In the field of sports under the capable leaderahlp of Heine Martin our boys won the Inter-lodge championship and at the present time are actively engaged inl battling for bowling honora. Our girls am on the verge of atarting their haaket-ball campaign, under the captaincy of Sis. Paula Meslnger ami the fighting spirit that they have displayed In their practice sessions should carry thsm far.
Plus membership, plus experience, plus ee-operaiioa the new officiate should make thia year, one that will be ostatandlag and the luembers ham thsmaelvse ts thank wbsn Ihey succeed. Pres. elect, Johnny Allch ths dsy hs Joined, plunged Into herd work ssd eopUnued ss the dsys rolled by. Mis clestiea shewed that the members s parcels te thoee who work, physlsally. Johnny Alieh mrrlcs my beet wishes In his somewhat thank-
With such an executive board about him. President J. AUich should make considerable headway. The wheels of his organisation arr elready functioning. hs can be seen by the tickets that ths VIce-Praa. sent to tho mem-l-eis. The ticket* merit comments. A fitting housswsrming celebration to the new officials would be to fill the hall to capacity at our FEBRUARY UANČK. lot us all ssll our quota and ask Johnnv for mom. Co-i operation, harmony and s spirit of good fellowship should be our key •note this year.
The writer wishes to extend hla thanks snd appreciation to ths editorial staff of ths Praeveta for the sst-up of this column during the past yearv It Is his belief that columns of this nature am helful even though the dealings concern community doings, and that If each lodge had weekly space alloted, which I know ths Kdltor would be kind enough to allow, It would tond to create good. For one that hss gone thru tho trlsis and tribulations of life It la well to critlciao and coipment on things that go about you, but the majority of us poor beings have not reached that stage, we're young and when wa try to argue with persons lots older than oursslvss, In sxpe-rtonce and othedwlse, we're at a handles p right, from the start,
We will all admit that there ia considerable room for Improvement in the Kngliah section of the Praaveta aad no doubt (he Kdltor rmlisee this. By rsprimsndtng "Uly" otbsr writers alsag similar linee should realise that, silly snd egotlattoal writings <* thai nature will not he Adltu.
