"Vi veste, da se je Rusija izrekla za splošno razorožitev," je tekel Molotov. "Znano vam je, da je Amerika podprla ruski predlog in predložila svoje su--jtije. V imenu sovjetske delegacije lahko rečem, da se rodu in ameriški načrti glede razorožitve lahko usoglasijo. Z ozirom na atomsko energijo se vsi strinjamo, da mora slutiti miru in da ne sme postati vojno orožje. Nobena država si oe sme prisvajati pravice upo-rtbe atomske energije za vojne amene. Dogovor glede kontro-k atomske energije mora biti toežen pod avtoriteto organizacije Združenih narodov. Niti e-a delegacija ni pobijala našega fndloga glede potrebe splošne nsroiitve. Nekatere delegaciji io izjavile, da se strinjajo s Itdlogom, druge pa so izjavila da so pripravljene za disku-aje. Upam, da so vse delegate pripravljene razpravljati o tem važnem problemu." Kakor Molotov, sta tudi ameriški državni tajnik Byrnes in bntski zunanji minister izjavila, di sta Amerika in Velika Brita-tija za mir. Bevin je dejal, da * je Velika Britanija trudila v ••porih za splošno razorožitev iwd izbruhom druge svetovne vojne. "Nihče ne more očitati sedanji bntski delavski vladi, da je a trošenje energij ljudstva v »delovanju uničevalnega* orožji" je dejal.

Prosveti je prinesla 1,092 novih naročnikov; 30 agitatorjev upravičenih do nagrade; cleve-landska naselbina z Jankovichem na prvem mestu; kampanja naj se nadaljuje! Kdor si v življenju postavi neki cilj in ga doseže, o tistemu pravimo, da je bil uspešen. Prav tako je bila uspešna tudi jubilejna kampanja Prosvete, ki je prinesla 1,092 novih naročnikov. Naš cilj je bil tisoč novih naročnikov, torej smo ga prekosili. Celoletnih naročnin je ta kampanja prinesla 965. V 30-letnem življenju našega dnevnika Prosvete je bila to prva kampanja, ki je prinesla rezultate — dobre rezultate. Prejšnja leta je bilo sicer razpisanih par kampanj, toda so ostale na papirju. Nam vsem je lahko v zadoščenje, da ta kampanja ni ostala na mrtvi točki — bil bi v resnici škandal, aRo bi se bilo to zgodilo. Zasluga za uspeh te kampanje gre malemu številu "old timer-jev", predvsem pa "večnemu popotniku" Tonetu Jankovlchu, ki je v tej kampanji v resnici prekosil samega sebe in poskrbel, da je elevelandska naselbina odnesla krono. V zadnjih šestih mese: cih se je število naših naročnikov v Clevelandu dvignilo za 2ST Od tega števila jih je Jankovich dobil 245 (236 celoletnih), ostalih 42 pa drogi — Ludvik Medvešek 7, Anton Wapotlch 6, Mary Somrak 6, Anton Žolosnlk 5; J. Durn. J. GabrenJa in F. Sustarslch vsak po 3; A. Meklan. J. Stancar. Joslo Močnik in Tončka Simčič po dva in Mary Dodlc 1. Clevelandčani, dobro ste se odrezali! Predvsem pa klobuk pred "večnim popotnikom"! Tone, zaslužil si zlato kolajno! Za Jankovichem je na drugem mestu Lojse Klemenčlč iz To-ronta, Kanada, ki je pridobil 126 novih naročnikov, od teh 94 celoletnih. S to kampanjo je br. Klemenčič Prosveti v resnici utrl pot v Kanado. Vsled tega zasluži Še posebno priznanje. Na tretjem mestu je naš France Udovich, ki je rešil čast Čika-ške naselbine s 87 novimi naročniki (74 celoletnih). France, tudi ti si prekosil samega sebe! Enako lahko rečemo tudi o sestri Roso Radovich v Pueblu, Colo., kjer je pridobila 75 naročnikov (61 celoletnih) in je na četrtem mestu. Rose, vse priznanje! Na petem mestu je Louia Barborich iz Milwaukeeja s 45 novimi naročniki (39 celoletnih). Tudi Lojze ae je dobro postavil! Za njim je Tono Zornik iz Herminieja, Pa., z 31 novimi (26 celoletnih). Tone že lepo vrsto let prodaja "možganske medicine", kot sam pravi in si je zaslužil častno mesto v zgodovini naših Jimmyjev ttigginsov. Med ameriškimi Slovenci sigurno ni večjega idealista! Tone, v naši zgodovini si si izjdesal hvaležen spomenik! Detroitsko naselbino pa sta v tej kampanji postavila na mapo Frank Tehovnlk in Jože Korsich, prvi s 24, drogi s 23 novimi naročninami (vsak po 22 celoletnih). Njima sledi "old timer" Frank Klune iz Chisholma, Minn. On se je bolj pozno podal v kampanjo, toda je dobil 22 novih naročnikov (21 celoletnih). V Sprlmj Glenu, Utah, pa je bil na delu J. Petrlch in pridobil 16 naročnikov (15 celoletnih) in od vseh malih naselbin odnesel krono. V zelo kratkem času jih je prav toliko pridobil v Milwaukeeju J. Rozlch. tajnik društva Lilije, ki se je nedavno priklopilo jednotl. Po 12 sta jih dobila Frank Cvetan v Johnstownu (11 celoletnih), in naš Milan Medvešek (10 celoletnih). Tono Valentinfclč od Sharo-na, Pa., 11 (9), John Goršek iz Springfielda, 111., 9 (7), Jošo Vidmar iz Milwaukeeja 9 (6), pokojni Jože Snoy 7 (6), Helena Steraleha iz Jolieta 8 (6), L.

Malovrh |z Denverja in Roso Dosk Iz Rock Springsa, Wyo. Vsi zgoraj imenovani, ki so pridobili po pet ali več novih naročnikov, so upravičeni do posebnih kampanjskih nagrad. Drugi se bodo morali zadovoljiti samo s priznanjem! Po štiri so dobili: Francos Zakovšek iz Waukegana, R. Kobal Iz Loraina, O., J. Zugich iz De Pueva, 111., A. Turk iz Calumeta, L.

Namen je strmoglavljenje sedanje vlade maršala Tita in restavriranje monarhije v Jugoslaviji. Neuradna vatikanska časniška agentura ARI je potrdila poročilo o sestavljanju peticije. Poročilo so potrdili tudi sovražniki Titovega režima v Rimu. Peticija bo vsebovala trditev, da Titova vlada ni legalna. Vest agenture ARI pravi, da se je bivši kralj Peter odločil za formiranje jugoslovsnske vlade v izgnanstvu. To naj bi bil prvi korak v kampanji zs restavriranje monarhija v Jugoslaviji in vrnitev Petra na prestol. Dr. Vladimir Muček, bivši vodja hrvaške kmečko stranke, se je nedavno sestal z bivšim kraljem Petrom v Parizu. Sestanka se je udeležil tudi neki repre-zentant Srbov, čigar ime ni bilo razkrito. Poročilo agenture ARI trdi, da je bil na sestanku sprejet zaključek glade skupne akcije proti Titovi vladi. Peticija, predlbžena skupščini Združenih narodov, bo naglaša-la, da so zavaaniki priznali Titovo vlado pod pogojem, da mora biti demokratična.

Da so tiste stavke večinoma izzvali arogantni in antiunijaki boaai, tem ni bilo nobenega sluha. Zelo ognjevito so tz dneva v dan donele tudi burbonske tirade proti "new dealu", ki je bil že zdavnaj v grob pokopan. In te tirade so neprenehno donele v k on gresu in izven. V tej spremenjeni politični klimi se je zopet pričela šopirit tista tepublikanaka stranka, o kateri so nekaj let prej mnogi prerokovali. da je mrtva kot ptič dodo, da ne bo prišla nikdar več na krmilo in se dušali. da ''ne bodo nikdar več zanjo glasovali." življenju jo je v precejšnji men spravil ohijski senator Taft, ki je postal njen intelektualni vodja in eden najbolj spretnih in efek tivnih apostolov monopolističnega kapitalizma in drugih aaortlra-nlh "free en terprizerjev**.

Wis. — Dandanašnji slišimo in čitamo vsakojake reči o novi Jugoslaviji. Od ene strani slišimo, da tam vlada pravi pekel. Ljudi menda kar na debelo koljejo in pobijajo, drugi baje od gladu ginejo po ječah zato, ker se drznejo oziroma ao se drznili hoditi v cerkev ali pa nositi vrvico tretjega reda. Druga stran, opirajoča se na tisoče pi sem, ki jih pišejo Slovenci in Slovenke iz starega kraja, pa trdi, da se v Jugoslaviji neguje novi red, ki bo baziral na pravicah in dolžnosti delovnega judatva. Kje je resnica? Ali e Jugoslavija komunistična? Ali vlada v Jugoslaviji protiver-ska? Kakšne so v resnici razmere v Jugoslaviji? Tale vpra šanja in še več drugih zelo zanimajo nas ameriške Slovence Točnega odgovora na to nam propaganda, naj bo že za ali pro i novim smernicam Jugoslavije ne more dati. Odgovorov in po asnil je treba iskati drugje— tam, kjer so nevtralni. Waukcganska rojakinja sestra Celarec se je podala v Jugosla vijo kar na svojo roko, da vidi in se prepriča, kako in kaj je tam. Sestra Celarec je Šla Jugoslavijo samo zato, da na la stne oči vidi in na lastna ušesa sliši, kako je tam. Ni zastopala nobene politične in nobene ver ske frakcije.

Pa. — Naznanjam članstvu društva 365 SNPJ, kakor tudi drugim rojakom, da se bo vršila naša društvena veselica 16. nov., začetek ob osmih zvečer v Unijski dvorani v Har-wicku, Pa. Za ples bo igrala godba Pavla Dolinarja, katera igra vesele komade za stare in mlade. * Ker naše društvo že dolgo ni imelo nobene zabave, a vedno daruje za bedne v Jugoslaviji ter podpira itudi druge dobre stvari, se je društvena blagajna izčrpala, zato smo prisiljeni nekaj ukreniti, da spravimo skupa; zopet nekaj denarja. Na zadnji seji je bilo sklenje no, da mora vsak član in članica kupiti oz. plačati vstopnico pa če se udeleži veselice ali ne To je društveni sklep, da ne bo pozneje kakega nesporazuma.

Umrl je naš rojak Skull, brat Pueblčanov Yenko, Mary Stravia in Franka Skulla, kakor tudi Rose Suse, Cleveland, Angele Krizman, Ely, Minn., Josepha in Louisa, Denver, in Rudolpha, Jugoslavija. Na domu v Avondalu zapušča ženo Josephino in štiri otroke. Umrl je v bolnišnici v Den-verju, pokopan pa je v Pueblu. Po poklicu je bil farmer. Naša članica Frances Koche var si je zlomda nogo v členku, ko je padla po stopnicah. Helen Pechnik se je opekla pri de lu na roki in radi priaada je mo rala za nekaj dni v bolnišnico.

Torej, da bo za vse prav, se potrudimo, da se udeležimo omenjene seje in ukrenimo kaj, da bomo vsi zadovoljni. Kampanja za Prosveto je imela v Pueblu precej odmeva, še več bi ga pa bilo, če ne bi bil nekdo raztrošil, da je Prosveta brezverski list. Sedaj se pa vsi tisti, kateri si ga izposojujejo in Anton I berejo na skrivaj, niso naročili Uršule Iiz strahu, da ne bi tudi oni postali neverniki. Ce ga kdo skrivaj bere, ni toliko kriv in zasi-gurjeno mu je, da ne bo šel v pekel, kot oni, ki ga bere očitno. Prosveta je list, ki je v ponos hiši, v katero prihaja dnevno. Jaz nikdar ne zapazim napadov na vero, pač pa da zagovarja pravice delavstva in pokaže vse ostale stvari v luči, kakršne so v resnici. To verujejo v Minnesoti, katera je ena naj-vernejših držav v Ameriki. Vse družine spadajo k SNPJ in sle herna hiša je naročena na list Prosveto in vsi so ponosni na to Ko sem jim razložila nale puebl sko stališče proti listu, se je mar sikdo začudil in ni mogel zapo-pasti, kaj imajo naši rojaki v Pueblu proti listu, kateri se zdi njim najboljši v Ameriki. Torej vsi tisti, ki ste bili to liko prijazni in zavedni, da ste se naročili, posodite list, kadar ste gotovi z njim, sosedom in prijateljem, da se prepričajo na svoje oči, da je njihovo mnenje in strah napaien in da ni nobe nega povoda, da ne bi dobili odveze, kot se Jih straši, če berejo Prosveto. Vera je svobodna v Zedinjemh državah, veruj kar hočeš, ker se tebi prav zdi. edi no kar zahtevaj^ je, da ai do ber državljan, drugo je prepu Ščeno vesti posameznika. Eno Je pa gotovo, kdor bere Proeve to. nadknljuje v znanju one, ki ao proti Prosveti. kakor tudi v pravem pogledu v svetovne raz mere.

Igro pa režiaira poznani mr. Stebla j. Zbral je šaljivo igro "Šola v nebesih". Kaj vse bo, bo morda on sam opisal. Mi dobro vemo; česar se on loti, vedno dobro izpelje. Saj onx je sam dober i-gpalec. Občinstvo je bilo vedno zadovoljno s programi mladinskega pevskega zbora SDD. Čeravno so majhni pevci in pevke, se vseeno dobro postavijo. Po koncertu se bo pričel ples v spodnji dvorani, v zgornji pa ob osmih zvečer, tako bo dosti prostora za stare in mlade. Odbor se trudi, da bo ysem poskrbel z večerjo in pijačo. Torej na priredbo ste vabljeni vsi. Razveselite otroke z vašo navzočnostjo, dajte jim vzpodbudo za učenje slovenske pesmi T Na svidenje! Jernej PaJk. VABILO NA SEJO IN DRUGO Milwaukee, Wia. — Članstvo društva Lilije 764 SNPJ vabim na prihodnjo sejo, katera se bo vršila v jjetek, 15. novembra, v običajnem prostoru, 739 W. National ave. Dalje apeliram na člane, kateri ste zavarovani za bolniško podporo in še niste podpisali listine, da se zglasite pri meni in jih podpišite, kakor tudi tisti, kateri še niste prinesli ali poslali zavarovalne police. Prosim prinesite Jih takoj ali pa pošljite, da jih pošljem v glavni urad SNPJ, kjer bodo vse potrebno uredili, kajti sedaj spada društvo Lilija pod SNPJ in Zveza Lilija ne eksistira več v Wis consinu. Pregovor pravi, "kar danes lahko storiš, ne odlašaj na ju tri!" Meni se vidi, da nekaten člani vse preveč zavlačujejo. Po pravici povedano, pričakoval sem več kooperacije. Upom, da bo v bodoče boljše, posebno ko bo stvar enkrat zaključena. Si cer Je izvršeno malone vse, le tiste listine glede bolniške pod pore Še niso podpisane. Listine v podpis sem poslal tudi funa nJim članom, a mi jih še; niso vrnili. Bratu Joevu Radiju v Indianapolisu pa sem poslal 2e vi nudi ZAHVALA ZBORA PREŠERNA Chicago, III.—Že več let ima navado, da se oglasim po koi certih zbora Prešeren, tako mi bo dovoljeno tudi to pot, javnosti povem, kake smo se meli dne 3. nov. t. 1.

Tudi članstvo tega društva je navdušeno za idejo federacijskega shajališča, kate-reen nai lastute samo članstvo SNpJ. Sestra Puncer poroča za društvo 192: Članice so vse navdušene za federacljski dom; imele bodo domačo zabavo 2. novembra v dvorani 8. S. Turner v spodnjih prostorih. Br.

Oblak poroča za društvo MM: Jako so navdušeni za skupno delo In nakup posestva, želijo pa videti načrt; enako poroča tudi br, Smolev.

Pugel, namreč da bi jih ob priliki 3.Vletnega jubileja počastili z veliko udeležbo In posegli malo v žepe. V korist federacije. Br. Puncer omeni glede nakupa posestva, češ, da je stvar težavna, ker je potreben deimr in zopet denar. Ako bi prispeval vsak $5, bi bil to šele začetek. Morali bi poleg tega dobiti še denar na posodo brezobrestno ltd. V slučaju pa, da ne bl bilo nič iz tega, naj bi denar povrnili. Enakega mnenja je br, Ermenc. Tudi on vidi že naprej težave, ki so s tem povezane, Vzeto na znanje. Br, Smoly predlaga, da se izvoli odbor petih članov, kateri naj napravi načrt za nakup kakšnega posestva.

WASHINGTON ST. PR08VETA Glasovi iz naselbin VABILO NA KONCERT ZARJE IN O KAMPANJI Cleveland, O.—Pred 30 leti se je zbralo več petja željftih mla; deničev in mož, pozneje tudi deklet in žena, in ustanovili »o pevski zbor Zarjo ter ga priključili socialističnemu kJit. 27 JSZ. To pomembno obletnico bo zbor praznoval 28. novembra. Pevci in pevke se zelo pridno pripravljajo za ta 30 letni jubilej. Prepričan sem, &dS bodo podali pester program. Prav malo je pevskih zborov, ki bi toliko sodelovali z našimi društvi, domovi in organizacijami pri proslavah, kot pevski fcbor Zarja. Zarjani vedno nastopijo, če le morejo, seveda pri delavskih in naprednih organizacijah. Vselej odnesejo lepo priznanje. Naj omenim samo njihove zadnje nastope, to je pri 10 letnici Progresivnih Slovenk, krožek št. 3, in pozneje pri 30 letnici društva Vipavski raj 312 SNPJ. Na obeh priredbah so želi priznanje. Torej ker Zarjani sodelujejo z vsemi naprednimi organizacijami, je dolžnost teh društev in organizacij, da sodelujejo z njimi ob priliki zborovega 30 letnega jubileja. S tem jim bomo dali največje priznanje in največje veselje. Kakor sem že omenil, program bo v vseh ozirih pester. Vprizorjena bo spevoigra "Čevljar in vrag", v kateri nastopijo znani pevci in igralci kot so Frank Kokal, Ivan Ceh, Jennie Fatur, Dorothy Skedel, Tony Perušek in drugi, Hefcijo vodi pa naša pridna in marljiva pevka Sophie Ilersich. 4 Torej pridite 28. novembra v Slovenski narodni dom na St. Clair ave. Začetek ob pol petih popoldne. Po programu bo večerja in ples. Ob tej priliki bo zbor zapel tudi nekaj novih partizanskih pesmi, za nameček jpa še izvle ček iz "Prodane neveste*. Vstopnina za koncert in ples v pred-prodaji je 85c, pri blagajni pu $1. Vstopnico lahko kupite tudi pri "večnem popotniku", ki vas vse skupaj vabi na 40 letnico zbora Zarje. Ker še ni bil objavljen v gla silu rezultat kampanje na dnev mk Prosveto, bom doff?s delno podal nekaj vtisov, po u radnem naznanilu o Rezultatu bom pa pristavil še nekaj besed Torej kampanja, ki je trajala šest mesecev, je bila uradno za ključena zadnji četrtek, 31. oktobra. Cilj Je bil 1000 novih na ročnikov, dosegli pa> smo jih 1092. Ponavljam, da je to prav lep uspeh in sem prav gotov, du bi ga ne mogel doseči noben drugi slovenski list (tudi svetov ni list A. D. ne). Torej vsem agitatorjem najlepše priznanje! Omeniti pa moram, da mi nikakor ne gre v glavo, zakaj so v nekaterih naselbinah agitator ji pridobili toliko naročnikov, u v nekaterih, ki so tudi velike, pu prav malo ali pa iuč. Ne samo jaz, ampak tudi mursikdo drug je radoveden, kaj Je temu vzrok. Ali so v tistih slovenskih našel binah, velikih in majhnih, naši ugitutorji in tujniki pomrli ali kaj? Kadi tega vzroku s\ mislim, du bi bilo dobro, da bi kampu njo podaljšali vsaj za dva ali tri mesece, da bi popravili, kar je bilo zamujenega v omenjenih na selbmah, prav tako bi se dalo pridobiti še kaj naročnikov tudi v naselbinah, kjer so se primer no potrudili do sedaj. Kampa nja naj bi se vršila pod istimi pogoji m načrtu kot do sedaj. Prepričan sem, da bi bil končni rezutlat prav dober. Po železu Je treba tolči, dokler Je tazbelje no. Moj predlog je, naj izvršni odsek podaljša kampanjo za dva alt tri mesece. Kaj pravite? V šestmesečni tekmi ali kampanji arm obiskal pritožno 750 družin in posameznikov Neka tere aem moral obiakati dvakrat, trikrat, štirikrat in celo petkrat, tako da sem skupnih obiskov napravil v teh šest mesecih o krog 1.900 v vseh četrtih našega Clevelanda in okolice. Krr ni mam avtomobila, man ti mački-ne solze' Dobro, d* Imamo v Clevelandu tako tvani poul črn a stem s "paaaom". Kupiš teden ski vozni Lstek in se z ijim vo ziš ves teden kamor hočeš in kadar koli želiš. Največ naročnikov sem dobil pri tistih družinah, ki imajo po dva člana v SNPJ. Toda več družin sem obiskal, ki imajo po dva ali tri člane, pa jih nisem mogel pridobiti, dasiravno sem potrkal na vrata enkrat, dvakrat, trikrat. Nekatere izmed teh poznam že mnogo let in sem jih imel za neke vrste napred-njake, toda sem se menda zmotil. Izgovarjali so se na vse načine, ampak pregovor pravi, da je vsak izgovor pravi, pa če ga pes prinese na repu. Glavni vzrok pa je bil—strah pred grehom, a navidez se delajo zelo napredne. Torej kot ni vse zlato kar se sveti, tako ni vse napredno, kar se dela napredno. Pri nekaterih družinah bi se mož morda naročil, če ne bi imela-— žena prve besede. Na drugi strani pa sem imel srečo pri nekaterih katoliških rojakih, kjer nisem pričakoval u-speha, temveč bil pripravljen, da me ozmerjajo. A zgodilo se je proti mojem pričakovanju: postregli so mi s sladkim vincem ali pa žganjem, zaeno pa se naročili na dnevnik. Ako so odkriti ih pošteni katoličani, se lahko pogovoriš z njimi. Reči pa moram, dk mi je šlo splošnem še precej gladko. Naj še omenim, da sem pridobil okrog 20 oseb, ki sploh niso včlanjene pri SNPJ, toda se za dnevnik Prosveto zelo zanimajo. Največ naročnikov sem pridobil od članstva sledečih društev: št, 53, 142, 28, 126, 26, 147, 137, 264, 257, 450, 576, 442, 748 itd. Že pred leti sem večkrat ur-giral, da bi bilo potrebno začeti s kampanjami za dnevnik Pro sveto, kajti le s kampanjami lahko pričakujemo večjega uspeha na tem polju. Škoda, da sem imel v tej kampanji premalo tekmecev. Prihodnjič še nekaj besed o kampanji.

O,—Pri društvu 258 SNPJ so že več časa na bolniški isti trije odborniki, sedaj pa se lim je pridružil še predsednik. Želim, da vsi kaj kmalu ozdravijo in potem vsi skupaj pomagamo voditi društvo po poti na predka. Od vojakov se je vrnil čil in zdrav član George Fillis. Strica Sama je služil 22 mesecev, od teh 15 mesecev na Koreji. Veselični odbor tukajšnje federacije SNPJ se pridno pri-ravlja za veselico, ki se bo vr-iula na Silvestrovo v Društveni dvorani v Boydsvillu. Vstopnice so že razposlane vsem bližnjim društvom. Dolžnost vsega članstva je, da pridno poseže po njih in s tem pripomore do boljšega uspeha. Pričakuje se, da se bo članstvo odzvalo v velikem številu, kajti čas je že, da zberemo skupaj v velikem številu in zsvršimo staro leto v veseli družbi. (Ostalo bo priob čeno v dnevniku.—Ured.)

VINSKA TRGATEV LEPO USPELA Springfield. 111. — V Spring fieldu ne prirejamo pogosto pri reditev ali veselic, toda v teko čem letu smo imeli tri, katere so v vsakem oziru imenitno iz padle, posebno pa vinska trgatev, ki se je vršila 26. oktobra t. 1. Pričakovali smo precejšno udeležbo, toda takega odziva se ni nikdo domišljal ali pričako val. Mnogobrojna udeležba je bila iz mesta in okolice, toda tudi iz sosednjih mest in nasejbin so se velikem številu udeležili, in sicer iz Witta, Bedlda, Carlin villa, Lincolna, Taylorvdla, Vir dena in Auburna. Odbor Slovenskega delavskega doma šteje v dolžnost, da Izreče naj lepšo zahvalo vsem udeležen cem iz mesta in okolice, kakor tudi vsem iz gori navedeni mest uli naselbin za naklonje nost in udeležbo, s katero nam pripomogli, da se Je vinska trgutev s tttkim nepričakovanim dobrim uspehom završda.

Od 6asa do (asa 20-LETNICA DRUŠTVA 569 SNPJ Fontana, CaL — Društvo 569 SNPJ bo praznovalo 20-letnico svojega obstoja z veselico dne 30. novembra, začetek ob osmih zvečer. Vabimo članstvo dru litva št. 723, kakor tudi druge v tej okolici. Društvo je bilo ustanovljeno 16 člani 1. 1926. Nekaj usta novnih članov sedaj spada 1 društvu 723. Društvo danes šte-, e 80 članov v odraslem oddelku in 14 v mladinskem. V tem času je naše društvo skupno z društvom št. 723 zgradilo lastno dvorano za priredbe obeh društev. Začetek je bil seveda težak, kajti tukaj je bila tedaj majhna kmečka naselbina, toda s požrtvovalnostjo se je premagalo vse težave in želje tedanjih članov so se uresničile. Dom oz. dru-i itvena dvorana je danes v ponos obeh društev. Na gotovo svidenje na veselici 30. novembra ob-osmih zvečer. John Potnik. PLESNA VESELICA SAMOSTOJNEGA DRUftTVA ZARJE Chicago. IU.—V soboto, 16. novembra, se bo vršila plesna veselica samostojnega društva Zarje v spodnji dvorani SNPJ. Vabljeno Je članstvo, kakor tudi vsi prijatelji. Pridite, odbor bo poskrbel za dober prigrizek in pijačo. Imeli bomo priliko tudi plesati po taktu dobre godbe! Frank Udovich. so VINSKA TRGATEV IN PLES Milwaukee. Wis.—DruHtvo Vi- poroča in komentira Milan Medvelek Društvo Sievija 1 SNPJ obdr-žuje svoje seje vsak drugi petek v mesecu. Zadnja je bila zato zanimiva, ker smo razpravljali, kako bi privabili na seje večje število članstva. Podanih je bilo nekaj *pam«*nih sugestij, med temi, da bi epkrat januarja ali februarja predvajali filme, ki jih je posnel M. Vrhovnik na zadnji konvenciji SNPJ. Kdaj bomo kazali te filme, bo pravočasno poročano. Prihodnji mesec pa se bo vršila letna seja, na katero že sedaj opozarjam. Izvolili bomo u-radnike za prihodnje leto, po seji pa imeli malo prigrizka. Agi-tirati bo treba tudi za našo plesno veselico, ki se bo vršila 15 februarja, to je na pustno soboto. Lansko leto smo imeli veselico na isti dan in je bila zelo uspešna, letos pa upamo, da bo še bolj. Na bolniški listi imamo sedaj samo eno članico in enega člana, in sicer sestro Marion Grum, ki je srečno prestala težko operacijo, ter br. Kukmana, poznanega trgovca. Upamo, da se obema kmalu povrne ljubo zdravje, članstvo pa ju najv po možnosti obišče, kajti prijateljski obisk je najboljše zdravilo. Se nekaj naj omenim. V zadnjem letu je vzelo precej članov in članic prestopne liste k drugim društvom. Sicer ne zato ker niso bili zadovoljni z našim društvom, temveč so se preselili v Calif orni jo, Michigan, Wiscon sin itd. Posebno v Fontani je precej bivših članov društva Sla vije. Naše društvo pa se priporoča tistim zunanjim članom, ki bi se slučajno preselili v Chica go, da se pHdružijo Slavi ji, k? nosi zgodovinsko številko eno ir ima za seboj pestro zgodovinske preteklost. Volitve so za naini. Demokrati so bili poraženi na celi črti. Naši ljudje so že od nekdaj bili bližje demokratski stranki kot republikanski^ Posebno v času Rooseveltove administracije. Toda stara ugotovitev, da ni no bene razlike med demokratske in republikansko stranko, je da neeJtolj resnična kot kdaj prej zato naj se nihče ne žaluje zs pogorelci. Da, ko je še živel Roosevelt, ko je bilo vprašanje ali bo Amerika pomagala slovanskim naroetom, ki so se ba rili na življenje ln smrt proti nacifašizmu, ni bilo vseeno, kdo je bil v vodstvu, vse po Roose veltovi smrti in že poprej, pa so jadrali demokrati zmeraj bol; na desno, v reakcionarne vode vrgli z vodilnih mest vse liberal ne pristaše, tako da pred tem volitvami res ni bilo skoro no bene razlike med njimi in republikanci. Morda bo ta poraz rodil celo dobre sadove in da povod za tretjo stranko, delav sko stranko.H i V tem republikanskim plazu je bil poražen tudi ohijski go-vemer Frank Lausche. Tisti, proti progresivcem, ki eo urgi-reli, da mesto prevzame privatno elektrarno Electric Illuminating Co.; ko je zasedel governer ski stol, pa je krenil tako daleč na desno, da ga oficielno menda ni odobrila nobena unija. Se-ve, unionist! so vseeno po večini volili zanj, ker pač niso imeli druge alternative—med dvema zlema je bil Lausche manjše zlo. Tudi slovenski naprednjaki najbrže niso preveč žalostni, ker je padel "naie gore Ust". Namesto da bi Lausche izrabil svojo visoko službo in skušal kaj storiti za tisti ubogi in bičani slovenski narod v stari domovini, ki se je tako junaško boril za svojo svobodo, je rajši poslušal reakcionarno slovensko duhovščino in urednika Ameriške Domovine, ki je nazadnjak vseh nazadnjakov in pusti, da dajejo smernice njegovemu listu prodane duše kot je monsignor Ga-brovšek. O Slovencih v Južni Ameriki tu malo slišimo. Toda sodeč po časopisu Slovenskem glasu, ki izhaja v Buenos Airesu (mesto svežega zraka), imajo pestro kul turno življenje in pridno pomagajo svojim bratom*in sestram v stari domovini. Dne 12. oktobra so imeli bogat kulturni program in vprizoritev Klopčičevo igre "Mati", pred tem, 29. sept., so podali poznano slovensko o-pereto "Kovačev študent", 27. oktobra pa pretresljivo Ganglo-vo tragedijo "Sin". V Franciji so dobili komunisti največ glasov pri zadnjih volitvah v parlament. Morda bodo radikalci postali pametni in se združili.

If you haven't as yet received your invitation for Loyalites* 20th anniversary Xmas dance you still have time to do so, or you'll be sorry you missed this big event. These invitations are easily obtained from any Loyalite member and we hope you will make it your duty to be represented at this gala affair. For your dancing pleasure we have Lenny Paul and his orchestra, for entertainment we have Pappy Howard and His Boys with his two famous lady singers, namely, Judy Dell and Tex Ann, who are featured daily over station WJW in Cleveland. For an added attraction which is a very special one. we have been is a very special one, we have pro-promised by Johnny Pecon and Frankie Yankovic an accordion duet which I'm sure you won't miss. So folks, how about making it a date with the Loyalites December 23 at the Slovenian Hall on Holmes Avenue? So far we know that quite a gand is to arrive from Detroit to represent the Wolverines and the Young Americans, while here we have a large number who will tome from the Utopians, Spartans and Društvo Mir. From the Strugglers we will have Vic and Ann Zele, and may I say it sure was good to see Ann again: it was nice to talk over good old times and we'll continue it some day soon. Ed Tomsic promised to bring his wife Fran out to the big affair and we're sure that many more will come whom we haven't as yet contacted. This weekend will find us (a group of Loyalites) attending the Young Americans Feather Dance and party in Detroit. Frankie Yankovic may parachute into Detroit at this time alyso if it is the least bit possible to do so. Yankie did promise to send a large selection of his recordings with us; all who are interested in having a few of these selections may do so by con tacting Lefty Kovach at the Omira Cafe. Mr. and Mrs. Frank Yankovic are celebrating their daughter Linda's fiftk birthday this Saturday, and so to our juvenile member the Loyalites send their heartiest birthday greetings. < To our sick members, Kay Ann Bosich. Andy Bertosa and John Marshalek. we send our message of speedy recovery. This last weekend we ran into John Rozanc who extended us an invitation to drop in and have dinner at his restaurant which is located at 1178 Babbit Road in Euclid. John specializes in home cooking so we'll be out to put our stamp of approval on it, John. I was wondering just what to get my husband A1 for Xmas. but, now I know definitely what he needs. I'm sure he needs a new pair of glasses due to the fact that last Sunday his team forfeited three games just because A1 Raines saw the schedule to read 8 p. m. instead Of 8. p. m., thusly arriving with his team only two hour late. It's a good thing his teammates are all good sports for all he received was a first class ribbing, not to mention what he received from the rest of the lodges. Utopians* shirts may be red and Debenak's suit may be flashy but the color of Al's face-that we cannot describe. Our newly formed Loyalites mixed league got off to a swell start this season, and still we find me Big Four fighting for a team standing in the league. Shorty Zadell's team 4 is surely putting the heat on blasting the maples winning all three games from the powerhouse Zupon Gang, team 1. Marvin Ros-sa's 457 and Shorty 517 stopped team l's long string of wins. Dorothy Pizmoth's 40« and Stan Zupon s 574 was high for the losers.

PROSVETA WEDNESDAY, NOVEMRPP 13 194{ Sports Activities In SNPJ Among tho rocont recommendation« of the National Athletic Board which received the consideration and approval of the Su- Southside SNPJ Interlodge News , SO CHICAGO.—Ladi Kuhel's 62t aeries he 1 Ded the Sentinel« win three preme Executive Committee are the following: The question of from ^ 490,f ^ ln increasing the number of districts and the membership of the ] f. _____ L>. O^.tUafila CM P T Unnin Athletic Board will be submitted shortly to a vote of the Supreme Board. A majority of the members of the Athletic Board has gone on record favoring a plan which would set up seven separate districts, each having its own representative. Another sugeetlon is that we continue to have five districts, the same as now, except that we give District No. 3 (Ohio and Michigan) an additional representative and, likewise, to District No. 4 (Indiana, Illinois and Misaouri), making a total of seven members on the Board.. Under either plan, a district, not having sufficient sport activity to warrant aending a team to the national play-offs, will be combined with some other district, just as has been done in the past with Districts No. 4 and 5 limiting them to a aingle entry in the soft ball finals. Lodges are reminded that nomination of candidates for the National Athletic Board will be open at meetings in December and January. Each lodge has the right to nominate a candidate for its own district. • * • e e e Veronian Lodge 680, whose Softball team won the Eastern SNPJ Championahip in a special play-offs with Triglav Lodge 82 on September 15, was awarded an attractive trophy and the sum of $150 for traveling expenses and jackets for the teanq members. Both the Veronian and Triglav teams were active throughout the 1946 season, each having played a full schedule of game« in their respective district«. Triglav finished as runner-up In the greater Johnstown League and then went on to defeat Lodge 289 of Tire Hill in two straight games of a series of three for the SNPJ soft-ball title in District No. 1. The Veroniana, on the other hand, won the championship in the SNPJ Federation Softball League of Western Pennsylvsnia and at the same time of District No. 2, besides participating regularly in still another local league. The two teama, therefore, earned and deserved the right of representing their respective districta in the eastern play-offs and, had there been a National SNPJ Day, would without a doubt have been on hand to compete for the higher honors. e e e e e e Traveling trophies shall be awarded by the Society in future national sport events (softball, bowling, golf and any other team sport recognized aa official by the N. A. B.), permanent possession of which will not be gained until a lodge has won it in three different tournament*. Tt is understood that a standing trophy shall also be awarded to the championa each year, this to be retained by the lodge whether the traveling trophy is permanently won or not .. . Trophies ahall alao be awarded by the Society to the winners in each SNPJ Inter-Lodge League, auch leagues to comprise of at least four teams, 'representing three or more lodges. e e • e e e A decision, which is expected will make It less difficult to secure the services of capable membera for future tournaments, provides that local committees in charge of future national or sectional tournaments, in which entry fees are charged, shall be allowed to deduct five percent of the total prize fund for expenses and service. > ' • To thoae who have been complaining that donationa from the Society's Athletic Fund arc not large enough, we wish to point out that subventions for the promotion of SNPJ sports have increased considerably, in aome cases as much as 100'/{, over the prewar years. We alao wiah to remind our members that the total amount allocated for sports this year is $5,000 and not $10,000 as aome seem to think. „Xhe higher amount, approved bji the recent convention, will not go into effect until 1947. That does not mean that lodges can then apply for double the amount the scale of payments provided in 1946, for we must not overlook the fact that there will be a big increase in sport activities in the immediate future and this Increaac alone will account for the expenditure of a large share of the annual sport appropriation . . . Lodges should endeavor to raise as much of the expenses as possible for uniforms, trips, entry, fees, etc. by staging certain revenue-producing social affairs. To depend too much for financial support from the regular lodge funds or the Main Office will, aooner or later, draw criticism and objections from members who do not participate in or favor Nporta. We can prevent this and get along splendidly by being reasonable in our demanda. e e e ♦ a e Up to the time of thin writing, nearly a score of lodges have submitted applications for financial assistance which will or has been used toward the purchase of bowling outfita. Many more are expected and these we wish to remind, for the last time, that December 1 is the closing date for such requests for the 1946-47 bowling season . , , In aome sections of the Society the bowling activity him more than doubled over the previous year. Chicago lodges lead all sections with a total of 32 teams in three SNPJ bowling leagues, Ten lodges are represented. Cleveland is a close second with 2B teams and three leagues. Detroit ia third with 17 teams, all of them, if the writer is not mistaken, in the Slovene-Croatian League. We have also been informed that a number of juvenile members have taken up bowling here, tuning up, perhaps. for the forthcoming juvenile telegraphic tournament. Conemaugh Valley Lodge« (Johnstown, Bon Air, St. Michael last week's Southside SNPJ tenpin league. The Trailbfiher's Tigers wone one game and lost two with the league-leading Delavec Mustangs.

Jrs. were hosts to the Federation lodges on October 20. However, we wish to take thi« opportunity to thank all those lodgfcs that participated in making the affair such a success. On this same day we had company from Detroit, none other than A1 Peternel, his wife and big son. It was nice seeing you all, drop in some time again. A little explanation is due to enlighten the members who worked on June 30 at South Park, as to what happened to the social that was planned for October 27. This affair was postponed at the Y,. S. Federation meeting because on Oct. 27 the Slovene speaking federation was having its meeting at Bridgeville Hall with a- big time following. The committee in charge will plan anr other date and will notify ydu members by way of the Prosveta. After all these years the J. Z. Jrs. are planning to celebrate their 17th Anniversary on Thanksgiving Night, Nov. 28 once again. It has been at least five years since we had our birthday celebration on Thanksgiving day. So this year we are going all the way by sponsoring a good old-fashion Anniversary Dance, featuring Joe Umeck's orchestra. There will be a door prize and a few other features that will make the eve ning most enjoyable. A cordial invitation is extended to all the lodges and their friends. There will be plenty of refreshments on hand including roast beef sandwiches. Thit V That The next J. Z. Jr. meeting will be on December 4, and a good attendance should prevail as the election of officers for the coming year will take place. The girls' Bowling League is coming rirfht along. The boys are planning to join Us on Monday nights at 7:30. You can bet we will give them some competition. Won't we, Stanley? A special "Thank you" to Mrs. Ocepek, Mrs. Triller, Mrs. Rupnik, Mrs. Ambrosic, Mrs. Zupančič, Mrs. Hrovat, Mrs. Strimlan and Mrs. Der-motta for the assistance rendered on Oct. 20. Best wishes for much happiness to Helen Terchek who was married to BIH McElheny on Nov. 2. From 1941 East Culver Street, Phoenix, Arizona, we hear from Mrs. Anton Cipcic and Mary Git-nik. They are both enjoying the Arizona sunshine and plan to be there until spring so drop in by way of a card or letter. The Saturday and Sunday night socials are still in full swing at the Slovenian Hall in Library. Drop in for a visit. The Library Women's Club are habing another card party on Wednesday, Nov. 20. Tickets are on sale at 69c per person including lunch. The men are most welcome too as the euchre game is right up their line.

At a recent monthly meeting of the SND directors there was quite a discussion on building a new SND. At the meeting we had members of the executive board of the Slovene Workers Home of the West Side and they eeemed to speak in accord with the new building idea. At this session also it was approved the issuing of new shwares, so all of you Slovenes, Croats and friends, we have 493 shares available to be sold.

Bowling Flashes In the Friday nite division of the Slovene-Croatian Bowling League, the Y. A.'s have only one team competing but this team (Y. A. Gremlins) is upholding the~Y. A. spirit. They're second in league standing and only two points from first. Sixth men—Ruzich 631, Adamic 989, Dolenz 238 single—helped the cause a great deal last week. In the Sunday division of the league the Y. A.s hav# »even teams entered. The Y. A.s seemed to always rely on the Y. A. SND team to uphold their dignity and that team never fails (not yet). At present they are tied for first place with Casino No. 2 team. E. Blake's 203 and V. Hosinlk's 199 averages are the main keglers on the team. Blake's 681 and Hostnik's 699 are one-two in individual three-game high, and we have Matty Planic of the Y. A. pick-up game of 295 on the board. The SND team's high single game 1033 and three-game total of 2841 are leading in each event. At this time we express our deepest sympathies to the Stimac family on the loss of husband and father.

Perfect Circle members held a regular meeting, and the attendance was very good Subjects under discussion were the Goodman Theater project, having a Circle Christmas party, making the hall decorations, the all important annual meeting, and the current iasue of the Voice of Youth was discussed and commented upon. Circle Gives $270.26 During the course of the meeting, Bro. Mlrko Kuhel, our specially invited guest arrived He gave the Circle membera a very interesting talk, telling them facts about the Children and Youth movementa In Jugoslavia, what they had done, were doing, etc. The children were very much impraised with what he had to say and were a most appreciative audience. After the talk. Marion Cervenka, Circle preaident. turned over the $270.26 that had been raised by the Circle for the Children's Hospital in Slovenia. Thanking the Circle members in the name of SANC, Bro. Kuhel then told us a little about the hospital project, and the very dire need for it. and the Circle sincerely hopes the money goal aet, will soon be attained. We wiah to thank Mr. Kuhel for attending the meeting, and for his descriptive talk about something he had worked for. but knew so little about. Bro. Paul Chapman of the SNPJ Printery was on hand to take some pictures. He is always so gracioua about doing this for the Circle, and we certainly appreciate it very mpch, Mr. Chapman!

ALVAREZ DEL VAYO in the Nation On Ascension day Pope Plua XII, casting aside all pretense of neutrality, entered the battle against a Socialist Europe. I read every word of his memorable address; it is without doubt one of the most Important documents of recent yeara. Although The Nation had anticipated that the Vatican would play a decisive role in preventing a peoples peace—readers will recall with what insistence we returned to this subject time after time in the Political War Section—it was hard to believe that it* intervention would come ao quickly and so openly. The task called for a personality of unusual strength. After all. for aevcral years the Vatican had had good reason to stay prudently in the background. Ita moral authority was at low ebb. Ita war record has been pitiful. It had followed the triumphal chariot of faaciam until the German armies were stopped In Rusala and the Anglo-Saxon democracies had mobilised the tremendous resources of their industrial power, which were later to assure the success of the European invasion. Many sincere Catholica were heartbroken by a capitulation of the Holy See which sealed the Pope's Hps at the very moment when the duty of every spiritual leader was to condemn tha Nazi atrocities and to denounce the Antichriat. Pope Pius had adopted an attitude of restraint contradicted only by an occasional indiscretion such as hia famous Chriatmaa mea-«age of 1944, in which he expressed "praise and gratitude for the gen-eroaity of the head of the state, the government, and the people of Spain,'' and for Rumania, Slovakia, and Hungary, all puppet govern menu in the service of Hitler, On we whole, these were yeais In which the Pqpe said as little as poaalble. Then, three days before the lYencty and Italian electlona, he emerged from his long silence, speaking out in bold, clear tones. Too much was at stake: an absolute Socialist-Communist majority In France and a victory for the republic in Italy ml^ht ruin reaction's chances of a come-back. Encouraged by the failure of the Foreign Min isters' conference in Paris, by Churchill's recent speeches, by the growing wave of anti-Russian feeling in the Untied States, Pius XII assumed command of all the re actlonary forces which some people naively believed had gone down to ever-lasting defeat on V-E Day. Thus the Catholic church has returned to the political struggle witn the same aggressivenes It displayed in the last century—in 1130, 1848, and 1871, when the cause of the Pope-King fused with the cause of the other sovereigns of Europe who saw their thrones endangered At the first sign of real eatrangeinent between the West and the East tha Vatican has resuscitated the Idea of a Western Catholic bloc. When it was first discussed during the wai', the neoessity of keeping the Russi* an armies In the fight made the chancelleries.adopt a somewhat Indifferent attitude toward the >ug* gest ion of a Catholic combination that would have Included the Franca of Peta in or Giraud (the letter's election as a deputy on the P R L. ticket makes it clear that there would have been little difference between the two), Franco Spain, Belgium, Italy, and the mora fascists-minded republics of I Mouvement Republicatn Populalre, also had its advantages. The error of the French Gallup poll, which predjeted an increaic in the vote of the Parti Republlcaln de la Liberte at the expense of the M R. P., stemmed from its failure to take into account the fact that a month earlier the Vatican had come out in favor of the M. R. P Until this counter-order arrived from Rome, the niajorlty of the French hierarchy were warmly sympathetic toward the P. R. L. With rare exception* of clerical resiatanta, the bishop* had all been on the vide of Vichy. For Monseigneur Geibeau bishop of Nlmes, Petain had been "the man of Providence"; for Mon seigneur Dclais, bishop of MarsclIK, "the star of Noel"; for HI* Eminence Archbiahop Gerller of Lyon, "th symbol of France"; for Monselgnoui Raatoull, bishop of Llmogea. "the father of all the French." The P, R. L. not only attracted theae VI-chylte biahopa but gathered around it the sworn enemies of all progier.-sive legislation. The M. R. P., on the other hand, had in Its rank* poo pie who sinoerely backed the nationalisation of the banks, who believed themselves on the side of the cqmmon man, Catholics for whom the history of the church v,*a« not that of the conquest of temporal power but, to use Msuritc'« phrase, "the history of grace in tha world." The Christian Democratic Party In Italy and the M, R. P. in Franco, which together with their brother parties In Belgium and Holland form the Western Catholic bloc— Into which Franco's Spain and Ri. lazar's Portugal will be incorporated at the proper time- have gone to tbr polls with invariable success in strange coetume, half-conservative, half-progressive. To counteract the hateful memory of the fascist bishops and win the vaguely demociatis masses they have brought forward the names of respected leaders of the Christian Democratic school—jMarl-tain. Don Sturso, BlondeJ, Dawson— , . M and resurrected the teaching* of J^el °f Spanish architecture but the M R. P. will reduce th« pro-Soda list French Catholics of Temps Pres.nl apd Ssprii to a minority; and the ' present Pope has ahown clearly that he does not enjoy being on the losing tide. As time paases, the Western Catholic bloc will reveal Ita true character. Fqr the moment, however, it will continue to apeak of democracy and the Four Freedom*, leaving Cardinal Mindsventhy to preach as a pure faaclst in defense of Hungary's war-time rulers and the bishop* of Slovakia to sabotage the authority of Eduard Bene* by trying to fore« the acquittal of Tlso. In Eastern Europe, where it Is a question of fighting the Russians on I heir own ground, direct action ia justified. But not in the West. The Christian Democrats in Italy muat continue to display the emblem of the Cross and the slogan Libertaa, which call to irlnd the coat-of-arms of Bologna and other cities and give a liberal flavor, The M. R. P. in France muat continue under the leaderahlp of a Maurice Schumann and a Georges Bldault, who during the Spanish war were for the Republic. The Catholic Party in Holland must keep ita left wing, which rejecta, on political as well as religious grounds, an al-llnacc with the Calvinlsta or with Ihe extremely reactionary Conservatives. The Chrlatian Socialists in Belgium must continue to give the appearance of supporting higher standards for workera. It is thia deceptive double policy underlying Ita entire present strategy which makes the Weatern Catholic bloc so dangerous. But although the Catholic parties of France and Italy hold first place today, the combined vote* of the Socialists and Communists still outnumber theirs by many millions. Tha Kalian's earlier proinoals that Europe was going left r«mains valid. It la precisely for tnat reason that the church Is trying to stop the historical process. The Vatican will sueoand only if the left repeats Ita blunder of pre*war days by allowing mternsl divisions to sap its strength In the face of the enemy. By Its entrance Into politics the church iAvltes treatment as a bel-llgirent. It cannot expect to discredit the counter-action of the other political forces by raialng th« cry of "antl-clerioallam ; the old trick of denouncing as reds and agenta of Moscow thoae who are not dfbposed to see the Vatican rule world polities no longer fools anyone. The last President of the Span lah Republic, Manuel Asana, was certainly no red. But when Monslgnor Te* deschl, the papal nuncio In Madrid, came to him one day before the Spanish war broke out to protest against an attack on a church, Axa-na, who wnsidered that church a Leo XIII, adapting them to the po lltical temperature of liberated Europe. All the old liberal pronouncements of the church have been served up In a plat du Jour to neutralise the unpleaaant taste of Plus Xll's Christmas message cited above. The 1931 Encyclical, "Quedragtstmj Anno," is a favorite text; "The problem," commenta TSmolgnage Chr*-llaa, "la to translate into deeds th«i lesson of "Quadrageslmo Anno," which hsa for too long been neglect• ed." But even in this progressive encyclical, which the promoters of the Western Catholic bloc are putting to use today, we find the state* mcnt: "One cannot at the same tl:m* be a good Catholic and a true So claliat"—a persuasive argument by which to take votes from the Social-lata and Communista, But it will not be a walk over to the Vatican In France a sharp fight between the church and the loft h already shaping up over the quo*, tlon of education, As I pointed out in sn earlier article, the left is ready to compromise on certain constitu tional issues; indeed, given the re suits of the electlona. the Socialists and Communlala will have to com promiae.

The world today is far from being at peace. Both legally and actually, It is still at war. 1. Legally, a state of waf continues until ponce' treaties are drawn up, accepted and signed. At Potsdam in July 1945, the Powerful Three agreed to set' up a council consisting of the forerign ministers of France, China, Britain, U.S.S.R. and U.S.A. The council was organized forthwith, and designated representatives of the foreign ministers proceeded with the task of treaty drafting until they reached an impasse. To resolve this im- Vn'an'economlc "and pol it- passe, the foreign ministers themselves met in London on Sept. 11. Foreign Ministers met in Paris for further disagreement. 2. Large-scale shooting came to an end in the spring and summer of 1945. Small-scale shooting continued. China suffered from it. So did Java, IndoChina, Slam. India. Burma, Egypt, Palestine. Some of the episodes were full-Scale wars; others were mutinies and riots. But in al^of them combatants died from gunfire, while civilian populations were strafed and harried. Historians tell us that, in all but four years since 1878, war has been in progress somewhere on this planet. The latest of the four warless years was 1910—thirty-sixe years ago. The big war is still legally in progress; little wars have been poppin* ever since wholesale killing and destruction were temporarily suspended. Meanwhile, preparations for another large-scale war are being made on an unprecedented scale and huge military establishments are being maintained by such pow- After twenty-two stormy days, the mefcting disbanded In a hopeless deadlock.

Armies, navies and air forces are ready for action. Scientific laboratories, factories and arsenals are improving jet planes, rocket planes, buzz-bombs and atom bombs. Propaganda agencies grind cut their grist of fear, hatred, intuit and intimidation. Compulsory training in destruction and killing continues in all the major countries. Peace is advocated in formal statements by government spokesmen— when has it not been? Meanwhile, billions of wealth and millions of man-hours are bing expended on preparing the stage for the next orgy of bombing, burning and butchering. So much for the war preparations. Behind them, and pushing insistently in the direction of war, are four major forces—(1) war has become a habit, (2) millions depend on it for their livelihood. (3) war relieves -'epresslons and temporarily ends unemployment. (4) the redistribution and rebalancing of power among the nations is not yet completed. The first three factors are rocondary. The last is primary. I War has become a habit—en irksome habit, perhans, but a habit nonetheless. An entire generation •>f young men has ix-come accus-♦omed to military service The adult oopulation has adjusted itaelf to war restrictions. Youngsters have heen trained to accept the idea of war service.

While the peace habit will remain all but non-exlatent The tdvantage* of peace have largely been lost sight of and war interests ! prevail 2 Millions now rely on war for their livelihood, partly because ar-m lea, navies and air forces are larg- er during periods of war-making and partly because the mechanization of war multiplies the mining, manufacturing, transport and other services directly engaged in supplying war equipment. 3 Recent experience has proved conclusively that war temporarily suspends a depression and for the time being eliminates unemployment. The major depression that began in 1913 was smothered by World War I. The depression of the 1930's was relieved by minor wars in Europe, Asia and Africa and was submerged under World War II. Besides suspending depressions and unemployment, war improves the bargaining position of the workers by creating a demand for labor. Furthermore, nations tlyit win wars help themselves to whatever property they can lay their hands on and bill the enemy for much of the war cost. 4 Finally, while the pre-war international power relations have been disrupted or destroyed, new relations have not as yet taken their place. We shall have more to say On this point later on. For the moment it is only necessary to remark that, since the turn of the century, economic, political and social controls have been shifting with unusual rapidity. All four of these factors—^the war habit, war as a source of livelihood, the palliative effects of war on a sagging economy and the role of war in international power politics —push strongly toward a new general conflict. There are not correspondingly strong pressures in the direction of peace. Injury and injustice suffered during war aggravate and inflame international relations, making a return to peaceful social intercourse all but impossible. War atrocities on both sides, unconditional surrender, cities reduced to rubble and ruin, military occupation, administration by conquerors, collaborators and quislings, forced labor by war prisoners and civilian populations, famine, disease, physical hardship, personal losses and humiliations, all play their part in perpetuating hatred and keeping alive a desire for revenge. Military defeat, unless accompanied by annihilation, can have only one effect on a vigorous, proud people—they will take the first opportunity to turn the tables on their conquerors, while nationalism will be intensified, underground opposition will flourish, youth will be taught the national traditions, formed into defense bands and schooled to await The Day. Military occupation rubs salt into the wounds of defeat. Today armies of occupation are everywhere. They are using the familiar techniques of both uniformed and secret police— p fesa censorship, house searches, restriction of civil liberties, billeting of troops on civilians. Such tactics arouse resentment and lead to retaliatory acts. Complaints from governments of occupied countries have been supplemented recently by mass protest demonstrations and bloody riots. World War II left behind an unusually heavy burden of physical destruction. The rubble and ruin will remain for many years as a constant reminder of humiliating defeat and will keep alive a smouldering desire for revenge. Forced libor has been a frequent accompaniment of war. Its widespread use during and after World War II has added fuel to the flames of discontent and unrest. Famine, diaease and physical hardship are incidents of every war. The bad harvests from 1943 to 1946 (due partly to weather and partly to war conditions), the unprecedented war destruction and the tardiness in re-establishing production and transport after the shooting had ceaaed accentuated the vartime shortage of food, housing, clothing and medical supplies. The Potsdam conference having decided that living standards in defeated Axis countries should be reduoed, political considerations have added their weight to drought and destruction in improving a staggering burden of hardahip on helpleas multitudes. Victor nations are badgering and needling one another. Defeated nations are harried by insecurity, physical want and psychological frustration. Power maneuvers and the bitterness of defeat both push toward war. (Continued) Believe It Or Not Way out west there is a small railroad station whose name is spelled E-u-r-e-l-i-a.
