Naznanilo, omenja izmenjavo diplomatič-nih not med Sovjetsko unijo in Ameriko. Ruska deklaracija pravi, da je ameriški poslanik Walter B. Smith izročil noto ruskemu zunanjemu ministru Molotovu 4. maja. Vsebovala je opozorilo, da Sovjetska unija ne more pričakovati od Amerike, da bo revidirala svojo zunanjo politiko. Moskovska radiopostaja je citirala besedilo ameriške note z namenom, "da ne bo nesporazuma." Glavne točke note so bile: Ameriška politika, ki je postala zadostno definitivna v zadnjem času, ima oporo pri večini ameriškega ljudstva. Izvajala se bo energično v bodočnosti. ^Notranja politična situacija ne bo vplivala na izvajanje politike. ^o velja za volitve v novembrih Ameriška vlada nima sovražnih in ne agresivnih namenov proti Sovjetski uniji. Ekonomska kriza ne bo prizadela induatrijako zmogljivoat Združenih držav. Ameriška nota je zaključena r zagotovilom, da Amerika drži vrata odprta za diskuzije s Sovjetsko unijo o reševanju ameriških in ruskih problemov. Sovjetska vlada pravi v odgovoru na ameriško noto med drugim: Rusija je zavzela pozitivno stališče glede izboljšanja odno-šajev med njo in Ameriko. Strinja se z ameriškim predlogom glede diskuzij in izravnave ob stoječih razlik med državama. Rusija zavrača ameriško trditev, da je ona odgovorna za nezadovoljive odnošaje in napeto mednarodno situacijo. Odnošaji' med Sovjet«ko unijo in državami v vzhodni Evropi so se izboljšali v povojni dobi s Sklenitvijo paktov prijateljstva in vzajemne pomoči. Namen teh paktov je preprečenje možne agresije s strani Nemčije in njenih zaveznic v bodočnosti. Znano je, da Amerika izvaja slično politiko z utrjevanjem od- piovni cd for in sotUon 1103. Act of Pet t, ÎSIT. authu» uod oa Juna 4. lilt. Lewis zahteva novo pogodbo Predlagal je raz* o-vore z operatorji Waahlngton. D. C.. 11. maja.— John L. Lewis, predsednik rudarske unije UMWA, je informiral operatorje na polju trdega premoga, da bo pogodba, ki krije okrog 80,000 rudarjev, kmalu potekla in da mora biti nova sklenjena do 10. julija. Predlagal je pogajanja glede sklenitve nove pogodbe. Pričela naj bi se 20. maja, ali pa pozneje, ako bo prišlo do sporazuma med unijo in operatorji. Lewis ni razkril zahtev, ki bodo predložene operatorjem. Rudarje krije pogodba, ki je bila sklenjena pred dvema letoma. Pogajanja med unijo in operatorji na polju mehkega premoga se bodo pričela «18. maja v Washingtonu. Pogajanja z operatorju na polju trdega premoga se običajno vrše v New Yorku. Lewis je naslovil pismo Ral-phu E. Taggartu, načelniku po-gajalnega odbora operatorjev na polju trdega premoga. Opozoril ga je, da je prišel čas za pogajanja o sklenitvi nove pogodbe, zaeno pa je naglasil, da bo unija upoštevala sugestije operatorjev glede plače, delovnih ur in drugih pogojev. Unija sprejela zviianje plače « Chicago, 11. maja. — Preteča stavka članov unije Stockhand-lers CIO proti Union Stock Yard ic Transit Co. je bila odvrnjena. Faank Menaghem, pradaadnik unij», je naenanil, da je bila pt>y nudba kompanije glede zvišanja plače za šest centov na uro sprejeta. Zvišanje plače je retroaktivno od 4. aprila. Delavci bodo prejemali dvojno plačo za delo ob nedeljah in praznikih. Oni, ki delajo 20 in več let za kom-panijo, bodo deležni tritedenskih počitnic s plačo letno. nošajev s sosednimi državami— Kanado, Mehiko in drugimi državami na zapadni hemisferi. Sedanja sovjetska politika se bo nadaljevala. Rusija se ne vmešava v razvoj demokratičnih sprememb v vzhodni Evropi. Na drugi strani se Amerika vmešava v zadeve drugih držav. Dogodki v Grčiji niso edini dokaz vmešavanja. Sovjetska unija je zainteresirana v razvoj mednarodne ekonomske kooperacije v povojni dobi. vrhovno sodišče bo odločilo 0 zadevi političnih aktivnosti prvi mesec kampanje prinesel 337 novih članov Na prvem mestu so Frances Debelak i« Milwau-keeja, Polly Sladick iz Impériale, Pa., in Mary Dermotta iz Salema, O. 1 Članstvo je najbrže radovedno, kako je z našo kampanjo v proslavo 35-letnice mladinskega oddelka in 10-letnice mladinskih krožkov, kl se je pričela 1. aprila in ae konče 30. novembra.

Taf-tov zakon zanika to ustavno pravico unijam. Dne 28. in 29. aprila so se vršila pred vrhovnim sodiščem zaslišanja o tem vprašanju. Prav» dnik CIO je argumentiral, da je omenjena provizija v Taft-Hart-levevemu zakonu proti uatavl, zato naj jo vrhovno aodišče pro glasi za neveljavno. Charles J. Margiotti, prav-dnik CIO, je izjavil, da zadevna točka v Ta f to vem zakonu pomeni, da ne bi smela nobena unija rabiti denarja iz svoje blagajne v politične namene. Unije ne bi smele najemati dvoren, plačevati za oglaae in potne atroske v zvezi s političnimi kampanjami N'f ne bi sme^le poalati svojih delegatov aH opi^ zovalcev na politične konvencije Vai argumenti, ki jih je podal zastopnik CIO. ao dovolj preprt čevalni. da vrhovno sodišča proglasi .104 točkp Taftovega zakona za neuatavno.

Od kompanij je zahtevala raztegnitev temeljnih naprav, da se bo produkcija jekla povečala za najmanj 10,000,000 ton letno. Kritika je v letnem poročilu uradnikov jeklarske unije, katere predsednik Je Philip Murray. On je tudi predsednik Kongresa Industrijskih urganl-zacij. Poročilo bo predloženo delegatom na konvenciji, ki se je danes pričela v Bostonu. Na konvencijo je dospelo 3,200 de legatov. Poročilo trdi, da Je jeklarska Industrija realni zamašek v o-mrežju industrij.' Pomanjkanje jekla je v avtnl, kovinarski in drugih industrijah. Unija je obsodila tudi druge industrije, ki skušajo "zamrzniti" plače v času grmadenja ogromnih profitov. Poročilo naglaša, da bo jeklenka unija, udeležena v ekonomski borbi, odprla tudi politično drugo fronto. Vodila bo boj proti političnim lakajem ve lebiznisa, ki hočejo uničiti delavske organizacije.

Povzročili Jo bodo hlapci bogaštva in bigotitva." Uradniki unije trdijo v poro Čilu, da je jeklarska industrija nagrmadila čisti profit čez $000,-000,000 lanško leto.

Lawndala Ava* Cktoapa 21, Hllaaia Glasovi iz naših naselbin Penzija za majnarje in druge Ameriški delavci so na splošno izredno mezdno zavedni in bol, malo razredno zavedni. To je njih glavna karakteristika ali značilnost. Na drugi strani «o njih gospodarji in delodajalci ne samo profitarsko zavedni, marveč tudi razredno zavedni. Ta razredna zavednost ameriških kapitalistov je posebno očitna v meščanskem dnevnem in periodičnem tisku, v katerem ja razredna družba jasno začrtana. Zrcali se ne samo v novinarskih stolpcih in uredniških člankih, marveč tudi na "society page", v čemer velike Meščanske dnevnike posnemajo tudi mali podeželski lističi, ki tud dele svoje malomeške in podeželske čitatelje na "višjo" in "nižjo" družbo: na "gospodo" in "plebejce" ali navadno paro. Ves ustroj ameriškega šolstva in tiska in filma in kulturnegp prizadevanja je usmerjen za tem, da se ameriško delavstvo ne "okuži" z razredno zavednostjo, katero smatrajo vladajoči "free enterpi izerski" krogi in njih politični ter intelektualni valpetl za "največjo nevarnost". Med te ljudi spada tudi liberalni republi kanski senator Morse iz Oregons, ki je nedavno dejal po radiu, da bi bila "največja nesreča" za deželo, ako bi ameriško dalavatvo postalo razredno zavedno. Razredna zavednoat je dobra le za vladajoči razred, za kapitaliste! V tej "free enterprlzerski" intelektualni in politični klimi ae gibljejo v pretežni večini tudi vsi tako zvani ameriški delavski voditelji, večinoma vse unije. Proti "nenasitnim profitarjem" in "Izkoriščevalcem" je sicer dosti grmenja tudi med najbolj reak cionarnimi unljakimi voditelji, zlasti še v mezdnih bojih, bolj malo pa naglašanja delavske solidarnosti, delavske zavesti in zgodovinska m ulje delovnega ljudstva. Vse, kar šteje, so plače, seveda čim višje plače, krajši delovnik in podobno — enako kakor pri kapitalistih profit, čim večji profit. Za delavstvo so plače res velike važnosti, kajti od njih je odvisen življenjski standard; enako je od profita odvisen tudi življenjski standard kapitalistov, kakor tudi njih politična in gospodarska moč. * Poleg mezdne zavednosti je ameriško organizirano delavstvo zadnje čase pričelo postajati tudi penzijsko zavedno — ne samo unionist!, marveč tudi stari ljudje. Med slednjimi se je v zadnjih desetih letih razvilo močno penzijsko gibanje pod vodstvom dr. Francisa Townaenda, znano tudi pod njegovim imenom. Ta pojav je povsem nsraven in socialno zdrav ter potreben. NIČ ni bolj patetičnega in tragičnega kakor življenje v revščini in bedi na stara leta, ko človek nI več sposoben za delo. In tej usodi je ob sojena velika večina delovnega ljudstva tudi v tej deželi; nekateri po lastni krivdi, ker si niso hoteli ali znali pomagati, dokler so bili mladi in sposobni za delo, velika večina pa vsled tega, ker jim življenje ni bilo toliko naklonjeno, da bi se lahko preskrbeli za stara leta. Ovir za to je nič koliko; bolezen, nesreča, družina, /brezposelnost, slaba plača, ia^uba prihrankov etc. Tdwnsendovo gibanje sedaj zahteva sto dolarjev mesečne pen-zlje za vse stsre in onemogle ljudi. Postalo je bolj realistično nego je bilo pred nekaj leti, ko je zahtevalo $200 mesečne penzije. Za tako penzljo se je Izrekel tudi Henry H. Wallace In se bo gotovo Izrekla tudi nova progresivna stranka na ustanovni konvenciji. * Enako penzijo kakor jo zahteva Townsendovo gibanje so si nedavno izvojevsli organizirani majnarji: 1100 na mesec, ko doseže jo 62 let stsrosti in ako so delali v premogovni industriji 20 let ali več Dn te penzije bodo upravičeni oni člani UMW, ki so delali v premogovni industriji do Isnskega poletja, ko je stopila v veljavo sedanja mezdna pogodba Kdor je prej šel v pokoj ali pustil ('elo v tej industriji, ni upravičen do te pokojnine. Med zastopniki Progresivne rudarske unije in prizadetimi illlnoiskiml operatorji pa je bil sklenjen dogovor, da stopi penzijskt sklad v veljavo s 1. majem tega leta. (To naj bo v pojasnilo onim članom, ki so nas pismeno vprašali.) Operatorji računajo, da bo letos do te penzije upravičenih 10 do 20 tisoč rudarjev. To število pa se bo dvignilo, ker je danes povprečna stsrost majnarje v blizu M let. Njih sinovi se namreč branijo težkega rudaiskega poklica ln si iščejo lažje delo po mestih Vsaj zadnja leta in med vojno je bilo tako. Ta penslja bo morda ustsvila ta beg mladih majnarjev Is premogovnih revirjev v diuge industrije Kljub temu pa se operatorji še danes upirajo inavgutiranju te |ienzlje Iz blaginjskega sklada. Ezra Van Home, njih predntavnik v odboru, ki upravlja ta aklad, ostalima dvema članoma (l/cwlsu ln senatorju llridgesu, ki predstavlja javnost) meče polena pod noge. On skuša na vse načine preprečiti plačevanje te penrije, katero sta odobrila Lewis in Bridges V ta namen se jr zatekel na sodišče i*. hodnijsko prepoved (ko pišemo te vrstice, je v teku sodno zaslišanje), a katero hoče zavezal* roke ostalima dvema članoma.

Brez njega ne mine nobena aeja številnih organizacij, pri katerih ae on udejstvuje. Ludvik j« bil v mlajših letih pisarniški uradnik pri notarju dr. Pozniku v Novem mestu. Kot tiaoče drugih, tako je tudi on polzkusH svojo srečo v Ameriki. NI se ustrašil trdega dela, čeravno je bila njegova roka bolj vajena sukati pero. Vsled njegove zmožnosti, so ga takoj "pritisnili" kot prvega tajnika in obenem gonilno silo pri Slov. narodnem domu,, kakor tudi pri društvu Naprej it. ft SNPJ. Toda delavnemu možu s kipečo energijo tudi to še ni bilo dovolj. Postopoma se je pridružil še sledečim organizacijam: Dramskemu društvu Ivan Cankar, društvu Slovan SDZ, Cankarjevi ustanovi, Slov. narodni čitalnici,, Nar. odboru za svobodni tisk, podr. it. 39 SANS in socialističnemu klubu. Poleg tega je bil skoro stalni zastopnik pri več drugih organizacijah. Nekaj let je bil tudi upravnik pri listu Enakopravhost. Leta 1938 je odpotoval v staro domovino, toda radi grozeče vojne in vsled življensko-obup-hih ln politiČno-birokratskih razmer v bivši Jugoslaviji, se je zopet vrnil ln |tukaj nadaljeval z narodnim delom. Medtem je a pomočjo svoje Bkrbne žene v domovini vzgojil številno družino. Navslic skromnim dohodkom je dal nekaterim svojim sinom najlepšo doto— višješolsko itobtacbo.' In tako je v Jugoslaviji sin Dolfe pod polkovnik in vojaški zdravnik, Ludvik vojaški lekarnar s či nom polkovnika, Mirko je po slovodja v državni zadrugi in hčerka Anica je poročena z nekim uradnikom. V Ameriki se nahajajo sledeči njegovi sinovi: Milan, pomožni urednik Prosve-te, Janko in Jože. Sin Viktor pa je bil podčastnik v ameriški armadi, pa je bil ubit v letalski nesreči, n Dasl je Ludvik navzlic poznim letom še poln energije, si Je kljub temu zaželel počitka in lomačega ognjišča. Srce ga vlača v novo in prerojeno domovino, sa katero je veliko storil tudi v tujlnf. Srca ga vleče v krog ostala družina, a katero bo prsživel večer avojaga plo dovitega življenja. Nekako v sredi meseca junija ae bo odpeljal a pamikom "Radnik". Cle-velsndski Slovenci, zlasti dru-štvenlki, mu želimo srečno pot veselo svidenje z domačimi in še mnogo sončnih dni v njegovem življenju. Naj mu bo v prijetno zavest, da je za svoj narod storil več kot je bil storiti dolžan. Z njegovim od ho dom bomo ljubili moža, ki ga bo težko nadomestiti.

Henry Mavrich, predsednik Pionirjev, je govoril v angleščini, tajnik št. 138 Jacob Pavčič v slovenskem jeziku, kakor tudi razni drugi člani. Med govori sta peli dve mladi dekleti kraane domače slovenske pesmi in želi velik aplavz. Morali sta vedno dodati še po eno pesem. Nato sem bil pozvan tudi ja? kot glavni govornik slavnosti v imenu SNPJ. Čestital sem slav* ljencem k obilemu uspehu v naselbini in k napredku obeh društev, ki sta sedaj močni društvi; dalje imajo dva mladinska krožka, svoj lep društveni dom, kegljišče in prostor za balincanje. Vse to se več ali manj lahko smatra kot doprinos dela še živečih ustanoviteljev in onih, ki jih že krije hladna zemlja. Vse to je sad skupnega in složnega dela za naselbino, za slovensko delavsko naprednost in v korist splošne človeške družbe. Naj omenim še, da s(> pred kratkim tam ženske ustanovile tudi podružnico Progresivnih Slovenk, kar pomeni, da tam delajo roka v roki stari in mladi in so resnični bratje in sestre, člani in članice SNPJ. Nato je stoloravnatelj poklical po redu vse ustanovitelje in jih nagradil v priznanje za njih delo s krasno, z imenom vrezano uro, jaz pa sem jim izročil v imenu SNPJ po eno listnico znakom SNPJ. S tem sc je program končal, nakar smo odšli v spodnje pi^j-store, kjer smo bili nutrpani kot sardine. Tam je vse pelo. ple*«4 lo in se zabavalo pozno v noč. Godba je igrala svoje poskočni-ce v zadovoljstvo vsem. Ob tej priliki smo se srečali ; raznimi zunanjimi gosti in prija telji iz raznih naselbin in s o p>-govorili o tem in onem kot stari znanci in bratje. Ni tem mestu želim izreči vsem skupaj uradnikom obeh društev in članstvu prisrčno hvalo za piijazjrn sprejem in da bi še dolgo skupno pcdelovali v braUki slogi živi in zdravi za našo dično mater SNPJ. Živeli! Philip Godlns. upravitelj. je'sestavil pester program. Nastopili bodo pevski zbori: Jadran, Slovan in Zarja, kakor tudi solisti itd. ~ Na programu bo tudi nekaj dobrih govornikov in predstavljeni bodo eksekutivni in gl. odborniki SArtSa, ki bodo prišli v našo metropolo iz vseh krajev naše velike Amerike. Dolžnost nas vaeh, ki se strinjamo z delom organizacije SANS, je, da gotovo pridemo na to veliko priredbo in se pozdravimo ter spoznamo z vsemi glavnimi funkcionarji SANSa. Zborovanje eksekutivnega in širšega odbora se bo pričelo v soboto, 29. maja, in se bo nadaljevalo v nedeljo zjutraj. Naj ne bo nikogar med nami, ki se ne bi udeležil zgoraj opisa priredbe! Drugi večer, 31. maja, pa se bo vršil poslovilni večer našega kulturnega In društvenega delavca ter trdnega naprednjaka Ludvika Medveška, 28-letnega tajnika društva Naprej 5 SNPJ. Ludvik nam je veliko pomagal v vseh naših naprednih akcijah, zato je pravilno, da mu izrečemo malo priznanja pred odhodom v staro domovino, kamor gre za stalno. Anton Jankovich. predsednik 48 SANSa. svete, naj takoj javi tajniku, da on uredi vse potrebno. Storite to takoj! Vsak član mora prejemati tednik, ki je podučljiv, posebno angleška sekcija. Potrebno je tudi, da imate plačan asesment do zadnjega v mesecu. S tem prihranite tajniku veliko neprilik. J oso! Korsic. tajnik. ZADNJA KULTURNA PRIREDITEV V TEJ SEZONI ClevelencL O^Zadnja kultur na prireditev v tej sezoni bo v nedeljo. 30. maja, v Slovenskem narodnem domu na St. Clair ave To bo velika varijantna priredba. ki jo bodo priredila vse tri clevclandskc Sansove podružni ce, in sicer ob priliki zborovanje izvršnega žal širšags odbora SANSa Program se bo pričel ob šti rih popoldne, po progrsmu pa se bo servtrsla okusna večerja v prizidku, kjer ae bo zaeoo vršila vesela zabavs vaah zunanjih in domačih odbornikov ter drugih posetnikov, vmes pa bo igrala domača godbo, taki» da se bodo lshko plesaželjni tudi rnalo ravrtall. Odsek za priredbe vseh trčh podružnic se je potrudil, ds ČLANSTVU DRU&TVA 121 SNPJ Detrolt. Mlch. — Članstvo društva 121 SNPJ vljudno vabim, da bi se v čim večjem številu udeleževali društvenih sej. Vse seje so važne in ne samo tiste, na katere ste vabljeni. Več kot nas je skupaj, boljše so razprave in zaključki. Seja se bo vršila 16. maja ob običajnem času v Slovenskem narodnem domu. V začetku tega leta smo pričeli z dviganjem ifnen. Ako je dotični član, kigar ime je klicano, navzoč, dobi dolar nagrade, ako pa ga ni, ostane v blagajni za drugo sejo. V mesecu.februarju je bilo dvignjeno ime sestre Rose Forbas, marca pa Justine Lovšin. Ker pa nista bili navzoči, sta ostala $2 v blagajni. MeSeca aprila pa je izpraznila blagajno sestra Mallie Korsic, ti je dobila $3 nagrade. Ne vem, če ta nova poteza Kaj vleče, toda Sleje so prilično dobro obiskane, bile pa bi lahko še bolje. Od 330 članov se bi lahko udeleževala sej vsaj ena tretjina. 4 Sedaj je v teku kampanja za nove člane in članice. Tudi o tem bi se lahko dosti pogovorili, in sicer, kako izpolniti našo kvoto 25 članov. Ne strinjam se, da imamo kampanjo za kampanjo, kajti s tem izčrpavamo upravni sklad. Dostikrat tudi pridobimo nezaželjene člane. Dolžnost Članov je, da vedno pridobivajo nove člane in ne samo ob času kampanje, ko bo Razpisane nagrade. Ker pa letos praznujemo kar dve obletnici, je potrebno, da gremo vsi na delo s podvojenimi močmi. Vem, da se da Še vedno dobiti nove člane, torej na delo vsi, da dosežemo našo kvoto 25 novih članov! Veliko se govori in piše o brat-atvu, da pa ne bo ostalo bratstvo samo prazne fraze, je potrebno, da to pokažemo tudi v praksi. To najlažje izkažemo ob času bolezni in nesreče naših bratov in sester, in sicer tako, da jih večkrat obiščemo. Ne čakajte obvestila od tajnika, marveč je potrebno, da ae prostovoljno odločite in izvršite to ssmaritsn-sko dolžnost, ssj tudi star pregovor prsvi, ds je potrebno obiskovati bolnike.

V prvi vrsti, ob času bolezni, nesreče ln smrti, pa tudi drugače. , Kadar se podaš na kako priredbo, gotovo srečaš kakšnega rojaka, ki si ga poznal še v stari domovini. Lansko leto sem bila na obisku pri Demšarjevi družini v Washingtonu, Pa. Tisto nec^ljo je imelo društvo SftPJ piknik in zelo so se trudili in skrbeli, da so bolje postregli. Pa je primahal na pik nik tudi neki Žirovec. Vsi so ga. pozdravi j ali s "hallo". Takoj sem vedela, da mora biti napreden mož. Nisem se motila. Bil je Vincent Peternel iz Strabana. Ko se je laAsko leto vršil dan SNPJ na izletniški farmi, je bilo tam tudi veliko članov SNPJ iz Penne in drugih držav. Ob takih prilikah se zgodi, da seznaniš i mnogimi rojaki, ki jih nisi še nikdar poprej srečal v tej deželi. Beseda da besedo in ko je moj mož omenil, da je bil ustanovljen na zapadni strani Clevelanda pevski zbor Triglav, se je hitro oglasil .rojak Peternel in sveto- val, da bi bilg^bn*- da bi zbor priredil koncert v Strabanu. Torej tako se je pričela ta stvar in dai\ps je že vse urejeno za naš nastop v Strabanu, ki se bo vršil 30. maja v dvorani društva 138 SNPJ, začetek ob šestih zvečer. Zbor bo vodil pevovodja Wauter, na klavir pa ga bo spremljala mrs. Vera Slejko. Zbor Triglav jc podal svoj prvi koncert 9. maja. Udeležba je bila velika. Seve, od pevcev, ki se učijo manj ko leto dni, ne moremo pričakovati, da bodo imeli tako uglajene glasove kot pevci pri zborih, ki obstojajo že mnogo let. Prepričana sem, da bom tudi v Strabanu srečala kakšnega 2i-rovca, drugi pa svoje sovaščane. Ako ne bi imeli Slovenci takih priredb in konvencij, potem bi bilo le malo prilike, da bi ara čevali drug drugega. Naj omenim, da je bil na zadnji konvenciji SNPJ delegat društva 81 iz Montane br. K. Erznožnik. Z njim je bila tudi njegova žena Mary, ki je moja sestra, a je nisem videla že 25 let. Staro domovino ata obiskalu 1. 1921. Carl Samanich pa je snemal filme ob času konvencije in tako sem važno naznanilo 0 pošiljanju paketov V ZVEZI Z NAJNOVEJŠO SPREMEMBO REGULACIJE IN ODREDBE O POŠILJANJU PAKETOV. BO IZŠLO POJASNILO V NAŠEM NOVEM OOLA8U. NA KATERE-GA PAZITE V BLIŽNJI BODOČNOSTI. ALI PA NAM PIŠITE PO NOVE INFORMACIJE. J. FABRIS & C0. - ■ t t 466 West 23rd Street - New York 11, N.

Ob zaključku pa vljudno vabim rojake iz Strabana in bližnjih naselbin, da posetijo koncert pevskega zbora Triglav dne 30, maja v dvorani društva Postojnske jame 138 SNPJ. S seboj bomo pripeljali tudi dobre godce, tako da se bomo po kon certu zasukali, da bo veselje.

The msjor losses were the Texas City explosion, Bar Harbor, and Kennebunkport, Me,, pier fires at Wmhauken, N. J., and Manhattan, grain fire in Tacoma, etc. The Florida Gulf Coast hurricane precipitated 80,000 claims, alone. These wastes, for that's what it amounts to, harm the entire country. It's a wonder they haven't discovered some communist plot somewhere, to blame these disasters on. • • • • I I just can't help but put in another plug for "In Fact," that little weekly paper with load* of information The last issu« relates how the National Aas'n of Mfrs, is chsnging it* attack to liberals and socialists, and proves its contention by repro-during copies of letters. Oh, yes, this issue also shows why informed people condemn the Chamber of Commerce. They are partners in fact with the NAM. They buy and bribe the newspapers and magasines; also the radio and get everything they wdht, and more, for their money.—You, who work for a living—you, common people—it's high time you awaken to the truth If you would aupport your labor pa pers, those who work In your be half and for your Interests, half as much as you support the "presstl-tuted pre*» and commentators," to use Louis Adainic's term, things would be different for all of us.

Our bus trip to Fodtana was aa experience wev won't forget foj-a while and surely will repeat. I wish everyone of you could have been with us aa we hi-balled down Route 08 through the San Fernando Valley. Such a riot of color on every aide! Then came the orange groves, one after the other. They are in full bloom now and the heaverfly scent from the orange blossoms la beyond deaription. The next amazing point of interest was the famous vineyards. I believe the report there are six thousand acres of grapes. As far aa you could see in any direction were grapes, grapes, and more grapes. For the information of local members who did not go with us the 110 mile round trip cost each person $1.35, tax included I don't think you can match that anywhere any way. The trip was worth many times that from a fraternal angle. It couldn't have been cuter il the "Conductor" had arranged it, but did you notice ^iow the bachelors and the widows changed their seats going home? All in the interests of better harmonizing, I'm sure. The main topic of conversation is the First California SNPJ Day on July 3 and 4. As a member of the entertainment committee I assure you all there will be a variety or things to see and do. In the sports field we have a ballna tournament. Any lodge wishing to enter a team contact Bro. John Olip of 7526 De Longpre ave., Hollywood 48, Calif. A handsome trophy will be presented the winner. Fontana has promised at least two teams and Lodge 615 is entering one. How about some competition, San Francisco, Sacramento, and you other lodges? It is almost certain there will be a match .between the Fontana women and Lodge 615 women. Other lodges interested In this angle be sure to let Us know and we will do the right thing by the ladies also. The only restriction ik that only SNPJ members may play on the teams. There will be no entry fee. Lodge 615 ia guaranteeing that thia SNPJ Day abaolutaiy will not be commercialized. Prices for rooms, meala, etc., will be placed at the lowest level possible. More details in the near future. HELEN RIBARICH, 615. Attention* Members SNPJ Lodge No. 240 BENTLEYVILLE, Pa.—Attention, members of SNPJ Lodge No. 240. Please -be advised that the next regular nfonthly meetnigs will be held on the last Sunday of each month at 2 pm daylight saving time. There are only a few members who attend the meetings regularly; it these few can attend, surely others can also. Let's rerfblve that from now on more members will come to the meetings. .And remem-> Trojans to Sponsor Yanhovic on Jane 2 JOHNSTOWN, Pa.—By yourself, you can't do much about the tre-mendous job of sponsoring a dance on a large scale. By yourself, you can only gripe about the non«up-port given you by the rest of the members of your lodge. By yourself. you can only complaia about the member who, when approached with dance tickets, accepts them, ptjts them into his or her pocket and that is where they are when you return and hope the member has given you his or her support by selling their quota of tickets. Together we can sppnsor a large scale dance, and come out on top, successful both morally* and financially. Together wc have had Very successful affairs, proven last fall when each member bought or sold a dance ticket. It is so easy for each member to buy or sqll one ticket, but it's a different story, when four or five active member try to sell two or three hundred tickets. Together we are doing something about our lodge problems, both morally and financially, by getting be hind the committee you have se lected, and when given tickets to sell, get out amongst your friends and relatives, and you'll be surprised to see just how easy it is to Ret rid of a few tickets, and you'll ave the satisfaction of getting be hind the cart and helping to push. The above is a little pep-talk prior to our scheduled dance for June 2, to be held in the Westmont Grove, dancing starting at 8 pm and the musie will be furnished by none other than Frankie Yankovic and his Yanks, the famous Columbia Recording Artists. Rumor has it that the SNPJ Boosters from Clar-idge plan to charter a bus, and come to Johnstown and be the guests of the Trojans for this dance. Nothing would be finer. We hope to see all of you at the beautiful and spacious Westmont Grove June 2. On May 2. the Trojans chartered a bus and sent three women's teams and one men's team to the SNPJ duckpin tournament held in Pittsburg. We didn't bring home the bacon but we did have a wonderful time, and it was swell meeting old friends and making new ones. It would be nice to have some of our Universal, Verona. Strabane, Am-bridge and other friends, too numerous to mention, make the trip to Johnstown June 2. I have just been informed that Stan Kobal, qf the Airliners from Girard, Ohio, when . in Johnstown last, left his newest records to be sold at the A1 Page Electric Center at the Moxham Slovene Hall. I heard the records and they sure are grand. The^e is a limited amount available so hurry and get yours while the supply lasts. I alio wish to inform you that A1 Page has agreed to be on hand June 2, at the Westmont Grove, to sell you records of both the Airliners and Frankie Yankovic and his Yanks. Wc have on our sick list Stella We Detroit Wolverines DETROIT.—Another month has rolled around and it's time for our Wolverine monthly meeting. Plans will be discussed about two coming events seemingly far away but in reality they are not* a moonlight picnic and our annual Halloween dance. Plan to attend this meeting on Friday, May 14, at thq John R. Hall at 8. Saturday, May 15, is the Slovene League bowlers' banquet at the John R Hall Each of the men bbwlers ia allowed one lady guest for an additional 8l.

There will be music and dancing included so anyone who was bowling with the Slovene league make this a night for endings a good season of bowling. Also on the same night the SND women's club will hold a drawing -All proceeds will go to the building fund. Once again I want to urge everyone to get out and sell those tickets for the new car, refrigerator, and radio to be given away at the Federation Picnic at Welcome Park, July 25. All proceeds go toward our New Home, so every ticket sold is a step further in the building of it. Saturday, June 5, the Jugo-Forward club of Detroit is having a moonlight picnic at Welcome Park Music will be by the Zvezda Tam-buritza orchestra. This will be one of the first picnics of the year so let's see how many early birds we can get together. Did you see the pictures of our two Detroit juvenile bowling teams published in last week's edition? We've sorr.e up-and-coming bowlers in the juvenile , league and it's in this league that they are having an opportunity to prove themselves. Nice going, kids!

JOSIE ZAKRAJSEK, Sec'y mounting costs of mobilization) revealed at hearing Family Helpmate By Dorothy Sodnlk Wouldn't it be wondroful if at spring cleaning time all the housewives would suddenly acquire a twin? Superman can do it, so could we! One would rush about the house, washing walls, curtains and windows, scrub up floor, polish furniture, tackle the drawers, closets and such, while the other would calmly go about her regular everyday tasks of straightening up and preparing meals. And there you have it—lor no npatter how busy a homemaker is, her family still expects to be fed on time snd patetsble delicacies along with plain substsn-tial food. Since in this very realistic and workaday world we can't oqnjure up a twin, we must do the work of two. So it's up to us to find shortcuts to all kinds of homemaking tasks.

This recipe makes one 9-inch shell. Next cook up any flavor of packaged pudding <1 package for one pie shell), while pudding is cooking add a. few tablespoons of ahreded cocou-nut, or ground nuts, or both.

Thus, without Universal Military Training or other programs under serious discussion, military expenditures for the cbrAlng yeSr will probably exceed $21.3 billion. Gavin could obtain no answer from Forrestal on the cost of equipping some two million troops from western European countries. Furnishing such equipment on a lend-lease basis has been discussed in adminis-trstion circles. While no informs-tion could be drawn from Forrestal or his military aides during the hearing, other figures given indi- total by drafting men between the sges of 19 end 25. However, further questioning of Forrestal brought out the fact thst the bill also contains the seeds of general industrial mobilization.

Many of his former aaaoclates in trance and industry are sensitive to controls if used to prevent inflstion.

NEW YORK—(ALN)~April 25, 1948, marked three years of the United Nations. Yet today the world organization, in which people put no much hope, is weak, compromised snd all but dead. The disregard that has now overtaken it is clear from the last three months' issues of several leading U. S. publications on international affairs. They have been full of stories on disputes between countries but hardly mentioned the UN as a place to settle them. The UN has been reduced to this state by persistent flouting of the principles and purposes on which it was founded. Basic in these was the preservation of the wartime agreement of the major Allied powers to continue the aims for which World tfar II was fought— peace through destruction of fascism and fostering human progress. The major powers were to set by unanimous consent. Esch could protect itself from coercion, which could lesd only to war, by the veto. In practice, there has been a constant effort by the capitslist powers, the U. S.. Britain, Franoe and Chiang Kai-shek's China, to return to the prewar policy of isolating and weakening the Soviet Union, and to prevent the spread of its political philosophy—by force if necomsry. In the UN this effort hss taken the form of sttgeks on the Mveto power." This policy Is now repeating its major prewar sin—the building up of Germany and Japan as new "an-ti-red bastions" financed by U. S and British wealth The banker-politicians of 1916-39 have reappeared. Gen. William S. Draper, now assistant «ecu-tary of atcte, is the chief executor of German Japanese revival. He, like Defenae Sec. James V.

The U. 8. which alone hoe the atom bomb, declines to scrap It until other powers submit to strict inspect km of even peaeuful development! in atomic energy It refused to accept own generation. For slmost two years U. 8. statesmen and writers have openly discussed weys of overthrowing the Soviet government, by economic strains born of "containment." and by foror if this failed. The charter affirmed "faith In the equal rights" of all peoples and all nations, great and small. The U. S., Britain, Fraaee end China threw out appeels against the dtsfrsnchlse-ment of colored populations by a small ruling white minority in South Africa, as well aa by the white mej-orlty in the U. S. They back the Dutch in their conUnued claim to rule Indonesia, with 60 million inhabitants They deny aelf-determl-netion to the Jews of Palestine. These bsllot-box "victories" in UN committees hsVe convinced hundreds of millions of oppressed people thst they will not get a square deal irutn the powers which engineered them. The snswer to their protest is srmed suppression, which muat fail in the long run but will cost countless lives first. The charter pledge« all member« "to promote aocial progresa."
