ZDA vetirale resolucijo Varnostnega sveta Združenih narodov o Nikaragvi NEW YORK, N.Y. — Včeraj so ZDA vetirale resolucijo v Varnostnem svetu ZN, ki je zahtevala od Združenih držav, naj spoštuje odločitev Svetovnega sodišča, da morajo ZDA ustaviti podporo protisandinističnim gverilcem. Enajst državk-članic je glasovalo za resolucijo, svoje glasove so vzdržale Anglija, Francija in Tajska, proti so bile le ZDA. Po pravilih Varnostnega sveta pa imajo ZDA veto. Veleposlanik ZDA pri ZN Vernon Walters je dejal, da je resolucija neresnično prikazala razmere v Centralni Ameriki in ne bi bila nič prispevala k miru na tem območju. V New Yorku se je ta teden mudil nikaragve-ški predsednik Ortega, ki se je med drugim srečal s skupinami Amerikancev, ki nasprotujejo politiki Reaganove administracije do njegovega marksističnega, nedemokratičnega režima. Njena vlada podpira Thatcherjevo odklonilno stališče do sankcij zoper Južno Afriko — Sporna politika LONDON, V. Br. — Včeraj je angleška vlada formalno potrdila svojo podporo za politiko do Južne Afrike, ki jo zagovarja premierka Margaret Thatcher. Thatcherjeva nasprotuje vsem predlogom, naj bi Anglija podvzela stroge gospodarske in politične sankcije zoper Južno Afriko. Njeno stališče se v mnogih ozirih ujema s politiko predsednika Reagana. Opozicijska laburistična stranka v Angliji je ogorčena nad tako politiko in nad tesnostjo Thatcherjevih odnosov z ZDA. Nekateri krogi v Thatcherjevi lastni stranki so tudi zadržani, ker se bojijo, da bo to stranko škodovalo pri volivcih. Podpora svoje vlade je pomembna za Thatcher, ker se bo to nedeljo začel sestanek šestih držav, včlanjenih v od Londona vodenem Commonwealthu. Te države ne soglašajo z angleško politiko do Južne Afrike in bodo skušale pritiskati na Thatcherjevo, naj spremeni svoje stališče. — Kratke vesti — Amman, Jor. — Na obisku v Jordaniji je podpredsednik George Bush. Danes se bo srečal s kraljem Husseinom. ZDA se zanimajo za oživitev mirovnega procesa na Srednjem vzhodu in še vedno želijo, da bi kralj Hussein igral večjo, neposrednejšo vlogo. Bogota, Kol. — Včeraj je neznanec ubil člana kolumbijskega vrhovnega sodišča, ki je sodeloval pri izročitvi ZDA nekaterih prekupčevalcev z mamili. Hernando Baquero Borda je bil ubit, ko je njegov avto čakal na rdečo luč. Kolumbijski predsednik Belisario Betancur je dejal, da ni dvoma, da je za atentat odgovorno kolumbijsko podzemlje. Zah. Berlin — Zahodnoberlinski preiskovalci pravijo, da je eden od Palestincev, aretiranih v zvezi z bombnim napadom na diskoteko v tem mestu 5. aprila letos, res bil vežban v Libiji. Po tem napadu so ZDA bombardirale Libijo. Varšava, Polj. — Poljski režim gen. Ja- ruzelskega je pod omejeno amnestijo izpustil na svobodo tudi enega vodilnih članov gibanja Solidarnost. Bogdan Lis je novinarjem dejal, da oblasti niso od njega nič zahtevale glede svojega obnašanja po izpustitvi. Lis je bil aktiven v Gdansku, obalno industrijsko mesto, kjer se je gibanje Solidarnost rodilo. Iz Clevelanda in okolice Starokrajski festival— Do nedelje je v teku Starokrajski festival na E. 185.

No. 58 Friday, August 1, 1986 ®aa Vrenje islamskega sveta Islamski svet je v zadnjih letih postal središče svetovne pozornosti. Časopisi in druga sredstva množičnega obveščanja se na široko razpisujejo o arabsko-rzraelskem sporu, o iranski revoluciji in o iransko-iraškem spopadu, o libanonski državljanski vojni, o palestinskem vprašanju, o zasedbi Afganistana, o energetskem vprašanju (nafta), o varnosti plovbe na Srednjem vzhodu in o Gadafijevih terorističnih podvigih. Malokdo pa ob vseh teh burnih dogajanjih razmišlja, kje so globlji vzroki za vrenje v islamskem svetu. Gre za vprašanje, ki v živo zadeva ravno Zahod in krščansko civilizacijo, saj je temeljno razpoloženje islama v sedanjem trenutku ostro protizahodno in protikrščansko. Odpor proti Zahodu Sedanje islamsko protizahodno zadržanje je precej drugačno kot nekdaj. Ne gre več za ozemeljsko enovitost in politično neodvisnost, ampak predvsem za vpliv individualistične, porabniške, materialistične zahodne civilizacije, ki je začela pronicati v strogo integralistično miselnost muslimanskega sveta. Ko se se razni Homeiniji začeli zavedati, da utegne sedanji zahodni model življenja v temeljih ogroziti islamsko versko in ideološko kompaktnost, še je začela proti temu na vsej fronti ostra reakcija 'v obliki tako imenovanih islamskih revolucij in verskih gibanj. Islamski voditelji se hočejo na ta način tudi maščevati za ponižanje v kolonialni dobi, ko je Zahod skušal vsiliti svojo kulturo, vero, zakonodajo, politično ureditev in ekonomijo in istočasno preziral Alaha, njegovega poslanca Mohameda, ni upošteval muslimanskih zakonov (šarija) in predpisov korana. Jasno je namreč, da je moderna zahodna miselnost, ki od humanizma dalje ločuje cerkveno od posvetnega, politiko od vere itd., naravnost usodna za islam. Islamska država mora po definiciji biti »teokratska« (bogovladna), ne pa »demokratična«, še manj pa laična. Politični pluralizem je prav tako nevaren, ker utegne ogroziti »ummah«, tj. skupnost vseh muslimanov, ki se ne glede na narodno pripadnost čutijo med seboj bratje z eno samo domovino. Zunanji izraz te enotnosti, ki pa je večkrat bolj navidezna kot resnična, so razne ustanove, med katerimi velja omeniti npr. Svetovno islamsko ligo (Meka 1965) in Arabsko ligo (1945). Ustanovitev izraelske države po drugi svetovni vojni je nedvomno pospešila prebuditev in utrditev arabskih oz. muslimanskih energij. Zahodne sile so ustanovitev te države ščitile. Zato je Zahod — po mnenju muslimanov — s tem dejanjem nezakonito odvzel islamu del njegovega ozemlja. »Najhujša (...) je zasedba svetega mesta Jeruzalema. Dolžnost islamskih skupnosti je, da se z vsemi silami borijo za osvoboditev Jeruzalema in vseh muslimanskih svetih krajev« (Declaration Islamique Universelle, 1980). Muslimani na splošno ne ločujejo med zahodno civilizacijo in krščanstvom. V preteklosti je namreč prodiranje krščanstva na Vzhod potekalo hkrati z naraščanjem eko- Romarjem ZOD CLEVELAND, O. - Osebe, kalere greste z Zvezo Oltarnih društev iz Clevelanda na romanje v Lemom v soboto, 9. avgusta, pazite, da sle na svojih določenih mestih zjutraj ob 6.15 in sicer: Od sv. Kristine na E. 222 St. in Miller Ave., blizu Sunoco postaje, kjer bosta čakala dva avtobusa; na enega jih bo šlo 15 oseb, na drugega prav tako 15. Od Marije Vnebovzete pri cerkvi na Holmes Ave., kjer bo drugi avtobus od sv. Kristine s svojimi 15 romarji pobral že 31 ali 31 oseb in nato šel naprej proti St. Clairju in E. 62. cesti. Od sv. Vida na St. Clair in E. 62 St. bo prvi avtobus, ki bo prišel od sv. Kristine, pobral vseh 31 oseb, tako da bomo skupno okoli 7. ure odšli proti Middleridge Plaza, kjer bomo pobrali dve osebi iz Loraina, nato pa nadaljevali našo romarsko pot s peljem in molitvijo na naše ameriško-slovenske Brezje v Lemont. Vrnili se bomo nazaj na svoje domove okoli 5. ure v ponedeljek, 11. avgusta, zjutraj. Vzemite s seboj jopič, dobro voljo in potrpljenje, da bo zares naše romanje imelo popoln uspeh. Pokažimo, da nismo samo članice Zveze oltarnih društev, ampak smo tudi prave ljubeče sosestre med seboj. Na veselo snidenje Vam kliče Mary Marinko (/a romarsko dru/ino) Na obisku med torontskimi rojaki Preteklo nedeljo je imel urednik AD priliko obiskati rojake v Torontu, kamor je bil povabljen, da bi bil glavni govornik na 27. Slovenskem dnevu, ki ga prireja vsako leto na Slovenslte,n letovišču pri Boltonu Slovensko-kanadski svet.

Mene in lastnika Jamesa Debevca je seznanil z možnostmi zaposlitve pri FBI, ki so sedaj na voljo. V našo pisarno je prišel, ker se FBI zanima med drugim za kandidate, ki obvladajo enega ali več slovanskih jezikov. Ti kandidati za zaposlitev kot »special agents« pri FBI morajo pa izpolniti tudi vse druge precej zahtevne pogoje. Za le-te, glejte na str. 5. Kandidati morajo biti absol- venti univerze z vsaj B.A. ali B.S. naslovom. Zanimivo je to, da se FBI zanima za inženirje raznih strok. Agent O’Malley je pa poudaril, da bi utegnili imeli določeno prednost tisti, ki obvladajo ruščino srbohrvaščino, poljščino itd. Povedal je, da je začetna plača za »special agent« tam okoli $24.000 na leto, z možnimi in tudi verjetnimi nadurami pa dodatnih $6.000. Poleg lega je agent upravičen do drugih finančnih ugodnosti (pokojnina itd.), ki so jih deležni vladni uslužbenci. nomskega in političnega vpliva tako imenovanih krščanskih držav, tako da muslimani večkrat sploh niso ločevali misijonarjev od kolonizatorjev. Razumljivo je torej, da so domačini, kakor hitro so se dokopali do oblasti, izgnali iz muslimanskih držav krščanske misijonarje. To dejstvo nam delno osvetli tudi primer Libanona, kjer se spopadajo muslimanski integralisti (šiiti, suniti in druži) s kristjani (maroniti, pravoslavnimi in katoličani). Bejrutski »Katoliški informacijski center« in msgr. Elias El Hayek, generalni vikar maronitske Cerkve v Kanadi, sta leta 1985 izjavila in opozorila ves svet, da muslimani v Libanonu izvajajo načrt za iztrebljenje kristjanov. Zanimivo je, da akcije proti kristjanom vodijo muslimanski kleriki, vzgojeni pri Homeiniju v Iranu. Proti kristjanom v Libanonu najbolj divjajo druži. Sedanje islamsko maščevanje pa ni samo posledica zgolj ideoloških premikov. Olje maščevanju priliva tudi propad gospodarske in ekonomske politike prvih povojnih let, ko so nekakšni muslimanski »prosvetljene!« kot Nasser, Reza Pahlavi, Burgiba, Kassem, Ben Bella, Bumedien skušali po zahodnem vzoru modernizirati svoje države. Ta politika je propadla, saj ni prinesla niti tako zaželene ekonomske moči niti blagostanja. (dalje na str. 4) Ako se zanimale za la^° ^ xtslitev, lahko v Cleve a jokličete g. O’Malleyja 522-1400.

Rastel je v omejku sosedove hiše v ozadju njenega velikega vrta, v katerem stoji tudi prostorna baptistovska cerkev. , Stoji na prostoru, kjer ga ne zakriva in ovira nobena stavba, razen nizke garaže; iz ute na mojem vrtu ga je videti v vsej celoti in brez vsake ovire. Bližnji sosed — pastor baptistov-ske cerkve — je dal nekaj let po najini vselitvi v ta kraj tisto živo mejo med svojo in sosedovo parcelo posekati in odstraniti, a bujnemu hrastiču je prizanesel in ta se je začel razvijati in rasti, da je bilo veselje. Rad posedam v času oddiha, ki ga je pa bilo v prejšnjih stih bore malo, na vrtu in z gugalnika v svoji uti direktno cpazujem, če hočem ali ne, to drevo že leta in leta, sledim n|egovemu bujnemu razvoju, prisluškujem šelestenju meloni v njegovem vejevju in se veselim njegove zveste tovarišic. Kakšno mogočno drevo je zraslo iz onega skromnega rirastička in v kakšni čudoviti obliki! Moje misli romajo od drobnega želoda, ki ga je moral °d nekod prinesti veter in ga odložiti na omejku v dobri zemlji^, pa do bahaške krone mogočnega hrasta, ki suvereno °rninira nad vso okolico in nam s spremembami svoje ^unanščine nakazuje letne čase. Ko bi ga vi le videli! Veličastna krona sloni, tako bi človek dejal, na spodnjem vencu Vei' Ki so okrog in okrog enako dolge (ker stoji čisto na prostem) in gotovo ne merijo manj kot kakih deset jardov ''saka. Od tod se veje proti vrhu, povsem enakomerno in v udovito točnem merilu, krajšajo in končno ob vrhu zgine-J°- Moje misli pa se ubadajo z vprašanjem, kje bi bil tisti tJrrietnik, ki jim meri dolžino, da ni ne predolga, ne pre-tatka. Pravijo, da to delajo sile narave. Kdo je pa te sile naredil? Naš oče so zmeraj trdili, da iz nič ni nič. Msa košata krona tega hrasta izgleda kot popolnoma Pravilno oblikovana okrogla piramida, ki se pred mojimi očmi vsako pomlad razširi in poveča. Ko ozeleni in požene n°Ve Poganjke, se na vrhu pokaže nov, močan poganjek, Psmerjen naravnost proti nebu in pomeni nadaljevanje ebla. Giblje se torej tudi v višino. S tem se posebno živah-n° igrajo vetrovi, upogibajo ga na levo in desno, naprej in na2aj in človek bi mislil, da ga bodo zlomili. Pa ga še nikoli n|so- še viharji ne. Je v njem izjemna gibljivost in hkrati uPorna vztrajnost in odpornost, da kljubuje vremenskim silam. Majceni inženirčki iz rodu drobnih palčkov morajo imeti a skrbi celotno pretakanje življenjskih sokov in sil po °9romnem drevesnem telesu. Svoj laboratorij imajo v zem-Pri koreninah in koreninicah, kjer odmerjajo obroke in ^stsvljajo porcije življenjskih snovi, katere pošiljajo prek ! eb|a in vej in vejic posameznim listom in lističem, da so ^ Po sveži, temno zeleni in tako svetli, da se sončni žarki ar odbijajo od njih. In teh listov in lističev je brez števila, o tisoč? Več! Vsaj desetkrat toliko. Hrast je tako gosto ^ raščen z listjem, da ni videti nič drugega kot debelo odejo enega listja, nič debla in nobenega lesa kake veje.

Molimo za naše bolne pionirske duše, ki jih je v Clevelandu in okolici vedno več. Med obiskom v Clevelandu sem jih več lahko osebno obiskal: Karlo Kucher, Angelo Železnik, Leopolda Pretnar, Mary Kacijan, go. M. Tekavec in več drugih. Toneta Nemec in njegovo sestro Kati Jereb priporočamo v molitev za zdravje. Prav tako Frances Kosem, g. Johna Lekana in msgr. Louisa B. Baznika. Vsi ti so tako radi prihajali v preteklosti na piknik. Na pikniku je bil morda med najstarejšimi Gosarjev ata, oče dveh pionirk, Mary Vrhovnik in Tončke Urankar. Veseli smo bili tokrat tudi dobrega g. Severja. Najbrže zelo pogreša rajnega g. Julija Slap-šaka, s katerim sta bila dolgoletna prijatelja. Kratko sem se lahko srečal z urednikom dr. Susljem v uradu Ameriške Domovine na St. Clairju. Fr. Tomc bo drugo leto 1. aprila praznoval 20 let župni-kovanja pri Mariji Vnebovzeti na Holmes Ave. Pri Sv. Vidu so pa dobili novega angleškega pride, da bi odpadel, saj mora pričati o odsvitu nebeške glorije na tej zemlji. Ko se to dogaja in ko s polno dušo uživam ob pogledu na hrast lepoto in veličastvo božjega stvarstva, se mi zdi, da bi moralo telo zdrsniti na kolena, in da bi mi duša morala glasno zapeti: Hvaljen bodi, Gospod, v vsem svojem stvarstvu! L. P. kaplana, ko je bil g. Kumše prestavljen na drugo župnijo. Srečal sem se tudi z dr. Lojzetom Tomcem, ki še vedno dnevno mašuje pri Mariji Vnebovzeti. Tudi za misijonarje pridno moli in jih ljubi. Vsem clevelandskim MZA pionirjem, v vodstvu odseka, kot posameznim zvestim sodelavcem in sodelavkam gre globoka zahvala za na pikniku dobro opravljeno delo za vse naše misijonarje. Naj Bog povrne vsem bo božje, začenši pri predsednici Marici Lavriševi, ki že leta tako zvesto in uspešno vodi vso skupino. V kuhinji je bilo letos kot v vicah. Naj bo za vse, ki so se tam potile, čas vic v večnosti zelo kratek. Inž. Jožetu Želletu za srečanje med tednom posebna zahvala. Tudi Bernardu Lavriši za prevoz v Parmo v zelo slabem vremenu. Ge. Karli Kucher za sortiranje znamk, Franku Kuhlju za pranje rabljenih znamk, in vsem darovalcem znamk, topla zahvala. Sedaj skušamo za misijonsko pomoč prodati, kar se je zadnja leta nabralo. Izkupiček ne bo kaj izrednega. A pri pomoči misijonom je vsak dohodek zelo dobrodošel. Rajni dr. Franc Puc bi dejal, da je »čudež, kako je Bog drobno znamko uporabil, da se je iz zbiranja znamk razras-tla močna M.Z.A., ki povezuje misijonsko čuteče rojake po celem kontinentu«. V razglabljanjih po pikniku je bilo precej opazk o njegovem uspehu in kaj bi se dalo v bodoče izboljšati. Na Občnem zboru se je o tem govorilo in v privatnih stikih je celo leto sedaj čas za to. Brez dvoma je igra »Lilije« na predvečer na SP pritegnila — in upravičeno tako, saj bi še sam rad nanjo šel, če bi priliko kdaj imel — tega in ono, ki drugi dan ni bil ob silni vročini razpoložen ali sposoben iti na 40 milj oddaljeno pot za misijonski piknik. Nekateri so so-rojakom to kar v nedeljo zjutraj pred cerkvijo povedali in eni celo dar poslali po drugih na piknik. Žal nam je, da smo (dalje na str. 4) V BLAG SPOMIN OB 36.

Sladka nam je misel na Te, na ljubeči Tvoj nasmeh, na besede ljubeznive, ki imel si jih do vseh. Žalujoča DRUŽINA Cleveland, O., 1. avg. 1986. Vrenje islamskega sveta (Nadaljevanje s str. 2) Gospodarski polom je omogočil nasprotnikom »modernizacije«, da so razglasili »islamsko revolucijo« proti Zahodu in povratek k »islamski državi« in »šariji«. Ob vsem tem moramo iskati tudi vzrok nastanka in delovanja najrazličnejših terorističnih skupin: Hezbollah, Amal... Napadalni šiiti Muslimani niso enotni. Razdeljeni so na sekte in skupine. Ena najpomembnejših je šiitska. To je versko-politično gibanje, ki je nastalo takoj po Mohamedovi smrti. Ko se je zaostrilo vprašanje njegovega naslednika, se je večina izrekla za Abu Bakra in potem za Omarja in Uthmana, medtem ko je manjšina priznala Alija, moža Fatime, Mohamedove hčerke. Nastala je torej Alijeva stranka ali Shi'ah, večinska pa je vzela ime Sunnah. Od tod razlika med šiiti in suniti. Šiiti — danes predvsem v Iranu — zagovarjajo mnenje, da stoji na čelu islamskega sveta naslednik iz Alijeve rodovine, tj. imam, kajti tega Alah obseva s posebno milostjo. Zato je imam nezmotljiv in negrešljiv in ima edini pravico razlagati koran. Šiitsko gibanje si je pod vodstvom sedanjega imama Homeinija zastavilo široko zasnovan politični načrt. Islamska revolucija si prizadeva, da bi uresničila neke vrste »vesoljno pravičnost« in enotno muslimansko državo. Zato je treba — po mnenju Homeinija — v vseh muslimanskih državah zbujati »islamsko revolucijo«. Poslednji cilj revolucije je še bolj daljnosežen, saj se ne omejuje na muslimanski svet, ampak na vse človeštvo, ki bo prej ali slej moralo sprejeti edino pravega boga Alaha. Zato je iranska revolucija v prvi vrsti naperjena proti zahodnim »imperialistom« in tudi proti krščanstvu. Muslimansko prodiranje v zahodni svet Prebujenje islama pa ni omejeno le na Srednji vzhod, zajema tudi zahodne evropske države, Ameriko in Kanado. V teh deželah se je zadnja leta začasno ali za stalno naselilo presenetljivo število muslimanov. Muslimanski denarni zavodi pritiskajo z ogromnimi vsotami denarja in skušajo priti zlasti do lastništva zemlje, npr. v središču Toronta. Statistika pravi, da se je med leti 1 953 in 1974 samo v ZDA preselilo več kot sto tisoč strokovnjakov iz arabskih dežel. Največ je Egipčanov (30.251), Jordancev in Palestincev (28.870), Libanoncev (19.405), Iračanov (13.251) in Sircev (10.032). Od 1959 do 1973 se je naselilo v Kanadi — če štejemo samo strokovno izobražene osebe — 33.789 arabskih znanstvenikov. Opaža se tudi, da število na Zahod odhajajočih arabskih znanstvenikov stalno narašča, zlasti po letu 1970. Do leta 1974 je iz arabskih držav odšlo 24.000 zdravnikov in 11 7.000 inženirjev. Vzroki odhajanja so politični, gospodarski in še kakšni. Dejstva spričujejo, da so ti ljudje v nekakem zanosu, ker iščejo med zahodnjaki privržence. Sedaj imajo mošeje v Parizu, Berlinu, Munchnu, Hamburgu; na ameriški celini so jih imeli že prej in jih zidajo tudi sedaj. V Rimu so začeli z gradnjo muslimanskega središča in mošeje. Omembe vredno je islamsko misijonarsko gibanje, ki zajema ne samo več afriških in azijskih dežel, ampak tudi Evropo. V Franciji je baje prestopilo k muslimanski veri na tisoče ljudi. Med njimi so znamenite osebnosti, npr. marksistični filozof E. Garaudy in priznani koreograf M. Bejart. človek se vpraša, kaj privlači izobražence in mislece, da sprejemajo islamsko vero? Odgovor bi morda bil: razočaranje nad krščanstvom — ali pa so krščanstvo sploh resno jemali? —, gotovo pa: čar enostavne, totalne in marsikaj dovoljujoče vere.

Pri otvoritvi »Starokrajskega festivala« Preteklo sredo zvečer je bila slovesna otvoritev »Starokrajskega festivala« na E. 185 St. v Clevelandu, ki bo trajal do le nedelje. Na levi na sliki vidite radijskega napovedovalca Tonyja Petkovška, biciklisla pa sta clevelandski župan George V. Voinovich in njegova Žena Janet. (Kolo: James Debevec) Misijonska srečanja in pomenki (Nadaljevanje s str. 3) jih pogrešali. Radi bi jih imeli med seboj, kot že popreje mnoga leta. Res je pa tudi, da je bil bil MZA piknik že dolgo preje za ta dan določen in bi se dalo igrati kako drugo soboto. Ena rojakinja mi je dejala, da je dolgi vikend in 4. julij omogočil možu in 16 drugim rojakom oditi v Kanado na ribolov. Zaslužili so in bodo lahko kasneje za misijone kaj darovali. Vsak potrebuje nekaj pravih počitnic in si jih mora vzeti, kadar jih lahko dobi. Več jih je dejalo, da se jih polno v bazenu kopa, kar je za telo zelo zdravo. Vendar bi taki bili tam tudi brez piknika in zato ni mogoče reči, da so prišli na misijonski piknik. Lahko so zvečer tam kaj kupili za pijačo ali hrano in s tem nekoliko k uspehu pripomogli. Osebno sem prepričan, da premalo vplivamo na naš mlajši, doraščajoči rod, kar zadeva misijonsko idejo in sodelovanje. Tudi muzikantov imamo veliko in bi lahko vsaj nekaj talenta izrabili za take lepe prilike kot je MZA piknik za vse naše misijonarje. Kako pravi evangelij? — »Zastonj ste prejeli, zastonj dajajte!« Še to in ono pa kasneje. Zahvalimo Boga za piknikov uspeh! Rev.

The doctor will probably want to see you right away. There is nothing you need keep in the medicine cabinet for eye injuries. A far better precaution is prevention. • Choose only the leanest cuts of meat. Trim all visible fat from meat; skin poultry before cooking. • Braise, broil, roast, grill or poach meats, poultry and fish. • Use cooking spray and nonstick pans for frying. • Refrigerate cooked or canned soups, stews and pot roast overnight before serving. The fat will rise to the top and can be skimmed off before reheating. • Crave vinaigrette on your salad? Toss greens first with only 1 tsp. flavorful oil (olive, walnut) to coat, then add vinegar-spice mixture. • Instead of fat for flavor, use more herbs and spices — tarragon, oregano, basil, sage, thyme, rosemary, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, black and cayenne peppers — as well as more onions and garlic. • Top baked potatoes with low-fat or nonfat yogurt instead of sour cream. • Want cheese? Sprinkle on the Parmesan: One Tb. is only 50 calories, and it adds lots of flavor to fish, salads, vegetables, broiled tomatoes and pasta.

Debevec We were at the opening festivities of the East 185 = Street festival in Cleveland’s east side where a large crowd gathered at the Perry School to hear political and business leaders give short speeches lauding the efforts of the the Old World Plaza members. Gathering at Kollander World Travel/Tony’s Polka Village for the ride on Lolly Trolley to the speakers platform were Euclid Mayor Tony Giunta, State Representative Ron Šuster, County Auditor Tim McCormack, Cleveland Councilman Mike Polenšek and radio personalites Joel Rose and Tony Petkovšek, American Home publisher Jim Debevec was also invited, along with E. 185 St. festival dignitaries. Cleveland Mayor George Voinovich and his wife, Janet, rode their usual parade vehicles, two trusty 23-year-old bicycles. The regular parade with floats and bands will be on Sunday. The evening was sunny and warm, the gathering seemed anxious to have a good time, and E. 185 street was decked out in its finest and was ready to receive all the visitors in grand style. There were food stands and entertainment from three bandstands. The first night had, among others, Frankie Yankovic and Joey Miskulin. Accordion virtuoso Joey Tomsick also did his usual splendid job of .entertaining. The great Lou Trebar was there as was Bert Kolar, accordionist by desire, and owner of Fanny’s Restaurant on E. 156 St. The evening got off to a smooth start and the festival continues now through Sunday night. Although 185 is blocked off, there is plenty of parking on the side streets. This event seems to attract large crowds and is the biggest street fair in the city. • • • It is good to see the ethnic neighborhoods doing so well with their summer festivals. On St. Clair Avenue, St. Vitus had a large attendance earlier this month. But St. Clair Avenue itself just can’t seem to gel going. A logical place to have a big event is at the Slovenian National Home and in their parking lot. Ah, well, maybe some day... • • • We enjoyed Joe Woods article in the last issue of the Perry News — we think. Joe covers more ground than the tarpolin at the Cleveland Stadium. • • • Speaking of the Stadium Plain Dealer writer Bob Dolgan has the right idea when he says the Tribe should trade for a quality pitcher and go for the pennant this year. The fans are chomping at the bit. They can’t get enough of baseball this year. He’s also right when he says Mell Hall should play every day. No doubt about it, Dolgan should be the paper’s sports editor. You heard the suggestion here first. • • • Speaking of sports, the football season is not too far ahead. We were disappointed last year when fans at various stadiums began to boo and make so much noise that the quarterbacks could not call out their signals and the rest of the team couldn’t hear their quarterback. My opinion is this, I’m not paying money nor wasting my time watching a game on television that is run by the fans.If in the referee’s opinion the fans are being so loud that the game must stop, he should warn the fans on the public address system once, then if they do it again, forfeit the game. I want to see the football players pushing and shoving and running or passing. If the fans want to get into the act, Tony’s Two Bits by Tony Nemec The ardent Communist explained to his son: “You see, under the capitalism, Man exploits Man. But under Communism, it’s exactly the opposite!” * * * Eighty-year-old Augostina Hernandez appeared in naturalization Court where the judge asked her: “How many states are there in the United States of America?” ‘ ‘ F e e f e t y ’ ’ “Good. Who was our first president?” “Jorge Washington.” “Mmh... Do you believe in overthrowing our government by subversion or violence?” Mrs. Hernandez thought for a moment. “Violence.” On Top? “Mow’d you come out in the fight with your wife the other night?” “Aw, she came crawling to me on her hands and knees.” “What did she say?” “Come out from under that bed, you coward.” Knowing Smile “Dad, what is an inscrutable smile?” “It’s the kind, my son, your mother had on her face this morning when 1 told her that business might keep me late tonight.” Great Relief Caller (moralizing)—You know we take nothing with us into the next world. Mrs. Round-Thank heaven for that, it will be a novelty to go somewhere with out having to pack. open E. 185 St. festivities they should come to camp in the summer and try out. If they can’t make the team, they should sit in the stands and enjoy the game and let everyone else enjoy it, too. And quit disrupting it. Period. If the fans continue to stop the games this year, I’m going to quit watching professional football because last year it became fanball, not football. Besides, some of the greatest games are played on the high school and college level anyhow. • • • Whenever you think of State Representative Ron Šuster, you usually think of a low key guy. But for someone who is in the gentleman class, he is seen at just about any function in and around the city. We can’t remember the last time there was an event of any magnitude and he wasn’t there, and usually with his wife, Pat, also. And another positive at-tribuie we have noticed about Šuster, his talks make a lot of sense and are to the point. On Wednesday, evening for instance, each speaker was given about a minute. Ron not onjy praised the E. 185 St. merchants, those who came out to have a good time, but had kind words about Chuck Marcus the retired manager of the La Salle, movie theater there. The state legislature recalled his many times at the movie show in his youth to the present and the how excellently the theater was maintained. Šuster seems to be the ideal person in politics who knows what the constituents want and at the same time has the knowledge of how to get legislation enacted. He seems sincerely interested in what’s going on. The area has elected (he logical man for the job and we wish him much success as he fulfills his political goals.

The feature is geared expecially to the younger set-late teens, college students, and 20 and 30 year-olds, but is also open to everyone. Marsic was prompted to push this since he notices a lot of young people not able to do the ethnic dances at his playing performances. This initial dance promotion at the E. 185th Festival will also feature the live music of the following bands who are scheduled in that particular time period-Wednesday night-Frank Yankovic; Thursday- Alpine Sextet; Friday-Joe Fedorchak; Saturday-Art Perko; and the final Sunday eveing- Jeff Pecon. Jane Jaksic, a young instructor with the Kres Slovenian Dancers will be in charge and will host the impromptu lessons, if the project is well received, a concerted effort will be made to have regular sessions at the Euclid Shore Civic Center on Babitt Road in the Fall season. Everyone is encouraged to join in the fun! Dancing can be entertaining and enjoyable and can add a lot to one’s social activities. All participants at the Old World Festival will be given free refreshments. Various Slovenian and ethnic organizations are being called upon to support this worthwhile endeavor- “Learn to Polka”. Tony Petkovšek Tony’s Polka Village E. 185th Street Festival Entertainment Chairman AMERIŠKA DOMOVINA, AUGUST 1, 1986 AMERIŠKA DOMOVINA. AUGUST 1, 1986 sOn the road with Eleanor by Eleanor Cerne Pavey (Continued Those selected proceeded to the next room called “The Second Presence Chambers.” Communication Gallery connects Queen’s and King’s apartments and on the walls hang paintings of many of Henry legitimate children of which 13 were raised to Earldom. Queen’s Stairway painted by Kent is not quite as grand as the King’s Stairway with paintings by a famous Italian, Antonio Verrie, but still very impressive. We are going through the Haunted Gallery, haunted by the fifth wife of Henry VIII, Catherine Howard. She committed adultery which was considered treason. She tried to appeal to the king who was at Mass. She broke from her captors screaming for mercy. The guards seized her and she was taken back and then executed. For centuries she was supposed to return at night to the door, only to recoil and with ghastly countenance and unearthly cries vanish from sight. So persistent was the story that the scene of her wandering has been known as the Haunted Gallery. After Hampton Court Palace ceased to be a royal residence, the western section added by Henry III was occupied by Grace and Favor Residence. You apply for residence after retiring from a diplomatic or military service. Recently an old lady, wife of a retired general and living on a small pension, was reading in bed by the light of a small candle. She fell asleep causing a fire which caused millions of dollars in damage to the residence. She died just a few weeks before we started our tour to England. The government has spent most of its time fixing up the rest of the residence so that visitors may see the building. As we passed the charred room below the old lady’s bedroom, we could see the great hole in the floor and the tremendous damage done by the fire. Plans had been in progress to renovate the residence but after this tragic fire, plans have been permanently shelved—too risky to take another chance on destruction of this fine edifice. If you want to see some of the best architecture representing Tudor England, then a visit to Hampton Court Palace is a must. We are now returning to our bus. We stop for refreshments, some quick shopping, and then board our bus for our return trip to London as that evening many of the tourists have signed up for a dinner and theatre to see “Me and My Girl” which has received the 1985 Laurence Olivier Awards as best musical of the year. Friday, Harrod’s, Boat Trip, and Greenwich Pauline stayed at the hotel not feeling up to a lot of walking, but our two friends and I took the underground train to Harrod’s one of the most famous and expensive stores in the world. We spent the morning browsing the four floors and two underground floors and it was fabulous. Especially fascinating to me was the bath department—all kinds of designs, fixtures, luxurious articles that had me wishing my bathroom were like that. In 1849, Harrod took over a small grocer’s store which by 1901-1905 had prospered and enabled him to rebuild the terracotta brick structure you see today with its towers and cupolas. Shopping in the exclusive Harrod store is not necessarily expensive and its ability to supply almost anything has made it legendary. In my mind it compares with Bloom-ingdale’s in New York City which a few years ago opened aftef hours to allow the Queen of England to do her shopping. When we had entered Harrod’s, we had seperated so each could visit the departments which most interested us. We now meet for lunch and the two friends are returning to the hotel since they are not taking the afternoon tour. I am returning to the underground train to Westminster Pier where the bus from the hotel with the other passengers are to meet me and we are to start our Thames River trip on the Thomas Barrier boat to Greenwich (pronounced “grenitch”). On the boat, our guide again ROY G.

ROY G. SANKOVIČ, DIRECTOR is giving us this information: The lead weights that fishermen are discarding in the river are causing the death of the Queen’s swans—so called because all swans are property of the Queen. English don’t drink water much. There are a number of reservoirs here some with sailing clubs. Kempton Park Race Course is where the horse racing sport of the kings and queens is held. Runnymede Meadows is where King John met his brother Richard and agreed to sign the Magna Carta (Great Charter) which changed English law so that one could not be imprisoned without first being tried in court. We are passing a monument which was given by the American Bar Association to the National Trust (not a governing body.) The first task of any monarch is to break the seal of the previous monarch and to put his seal of office in effect. Old Windsor town had been located here before the building of the castle. When castle was built, people moved closer to it for protection. We are now approaching the GLC Thames Barrier (protecting London from being flooded by the sea) which is being hailed as the eighth wonder of the world because of its extraordinary engineering feats. The Barrier spans a third of a mile across the river and consists of ten separate moveable steel gates, each pivoting and supported between concrete piers which house the hydraulic machinery powering the gates. It is an awesome sight to see. We are returning to our bus and boarding for our trip to Greenwich. Comments by Bertie: Many wealthy people leave wills endowing their money to a special fund for the upkeep of bridges (and they are painted in a variety of colors which adds to their attractiveness). The City of London never has to spend money for repairs—there is a constant fund available for repairs because donors names “in memory of” are inscribed on plaques. We are passing a tablet depicting the life of a sailor on a hospital wall. Also we are passing the Naval College where Christopher Wren experimented with domes getting ready for the building of St. Paul’s dome. We are now approaching the “Cutty Sark” in her dock at Greenwich. Looking up one can see the intricacies of the rigging on this clipper ship. There are over ten miles of rope on this ship. She is the only ship remaining of the golden age of sailing to show us what a beautiful and graceful ship a clipper ship was. There is a story connected with the figurehead—the figure of a woman with her left arm outstretched and holding a part of a horse’s tail. It seems that a farmer was riding home on his mare “Maggie” after an evening of hard drinking with his friend the cobbler. It was a dark and stormy night with thunder and lightning and as he passed a churchyard, he saw a group of warlocks and witches dancing to music provided by the Devil himself with horns, tail and bagpipes. He stopped to watch, and among the hag-like witches was a young and beautiful girl named “Nannie.” She was wearing nothing but a “cutty sark”, a short shirt made of Paisley linen. As the dancing became wilder so did the farmer and in his excitement he roared out, “Well done, Cutty Sark”, and in an instant all was dark. Sobered by fear and pursued by witches, he fled for his life to the bridge over the Doon, for he knew that witches can’t cross running water, and on the far side he would be safe. But Nannie could run faster than the others and catching up as the grey mare galloped over the bridge, she seized poor Maggie by the tail, which came off in her hand. That is why the figurehead on the “Čutty Sark” shows her left arm extended, clutching fingers reaching for the grey jnare’s tail. Today the “Cutty Sark” is being preserved as a tribute to the ships and men of BRICKMAN &SONS FUNERAL HOME 21900 Euclid Ave. 481-5277 Between Chardon & E. 222nd St. — Euclid, Ohio ZAK-ZAKRAJSEK Funeral Home 6016 St. Clair Ave. Phone 361 - 3112 — tel. št. 361-3112 Zachary A.

We were scheduled to visit the Royal Naval College which we are passing, but because of security reasons (the recent terrorist activities) it is “off-limits” to us today. A warship used as a hospital for sailors in 1821 gave her name to the Dreadnought Seamen’s hospital (which we are now passing and has been used for sick naval pensioners since 1763. It is being disbanded now. We are passing “The Queen s House” designed for Anne of Denmark, wife of James !• The house was completed by Charles I in 1635 for his queen, Henrietta Maria.

We had to get assistance. Monday morning we departed on our six day California Parlor Car Tour. There were 36 of us, mostly easterners. We began by going over the Oakland bridge to Sacramento, looked around there and had lunch. Then on we went to Lake Tahoe. The lake is big and very deep so it does not freeze. There are gambling casinos where I lost my socks but not my shirt. After breakfast we ventured on to Carson City, Nevada and looked at the Capitol Building. Then on the high road over Tioga Pass which at 10,000 feet is 550 feet higher than Triglav. It is only open between mid-June and September because of all the snow. In the later part of the day we arrived at Yosemite National Park and our stop for the night at a lodge which is under and near a waterfall named Bridal Veil. We stayed there for two nights. The next day we had a 100 mile park bus tour of Yosemite Valley. What a spectacular view with breathtaking sights. The bus takes you to great heights where you can see where the water comes from to feed all the great falls that are in the park. On the road again down from the mountains through farm lands and vineyards back to the coast. Passed Pebble Beach and spent the night in Monterey. Continued down rugged rocky coast up and down, round the bends, spectacular, till we reached San Simeon where Hearst Castle is located up on the hill six miles inland. It took him 20 years to build. He spared no expenses, but now the state has it and millions of visitors enjoy it. Then we continued to Solvang, a Danish community with a wind mill. There we had a farewell dinner with all the trimmings. The next morning, Saturday, we started a bit late as it wasn’t far to Santa Barbara with a very old mission still in use. The noon time ringing of bells thrilled us like in old Slovenia. Again it was a fine sunny day and the town had a big carnival and parade celebrating the longest day of the year. In late afternoon we arrived at tremendously big Los Angeles where again we stayed for three nights at Sheraton Town House. Very elegant, built in 1929. A block away a cathedral like Congregational church had poor attendance that Sunday. Around the corner was also a big church of Precious Blood. The 10 a.m. Mass was a bit more than half full with less than 25% Europeans. In the afternoon we had a mini bus ride down Rodeo Drive (a day before the great robbery) and had a tour of Beverly Hills homes of celebrities. Monday morning we took a 120 mile trip to the San Diego Zoo. It is a big place with a big collection of the world’s wild animals, birds and snakes. It is celebrating its 70th anniversary and it shows its age. Fontana Tuesday morning we were on a three lane highway in a Greyhound bus to 55-mile distant city of Fontana where we stayed for two nights. Population is 40,000. We were dropped off at an abandoned bus station. Our old time friend Steve Mohorko picked us up and took us to dinner. He showed us the Slovene Rest Home. It was recently enlarged and very pleasant. Then we went to the SNPJ Hall. It is nice and practical. Then on to the KSKJ establishment which to our pleasant surprise is quite large with facilities to serve over 200 dinners at a seating with occupancy capacity of 520. There is paved parking lot to match. Thursday morning we were on the airport coach back to Los Angeles and said farewell to our first and very delightful and rewarding trip to California.

AMERIŠKA DOMOVINA, AUGUST 1, 1986 RIŠKA DOMOVINA, AUGUST 1, 1986 10 Houston Held First Slavic Heritage Gathering A first ever Slovenian event has occurred at Houston, Texas. For the very first time in Texas, the Slovene-American Club of Houston was host participant in the Slavic Heritage Festival honoring Saints Cyril and Methodius for bringing Christianity to the Slavs in the 9th century. The event took place on the 12th and 13th of July on the grounds and in the ■g buildings of the Knights of < Columbus on East Whitney Drive in Houston. The Slavic Heritage Festival, in itself, may well be the only festival of its kind in the Americas and perhaps, the world, where Slavs join together and work together in tribute to Saints Cyril and Methodius. Bishop Edward Pevec of Cleveland, Ohio, accepted an invitation to celebrate Mass at the function. Bishop Pevec’s visit to Houston and the Festival was inspirational as his personality electrified all who had the good fortune to be in his presence. As the bishop celebrated Mass he wore, for the first time, a chasuble that was totally hand made by Slovene-American Club Member Carol Turk of Houston. Bishop John L. Morkovsky of Houston gave the homily. The Slovene-American Club of Houston, formed through the inspiration of Jim Golick, first and current president, had its first meeting in January of 1985. By July of that year the Slovene-American Club made a striking impression at the Slavic Heritage Festival with a cultural booth and a food Slovenian Home Steak Roast Oct. 26 The Newburgh Slovenian Home, E. 80th is sponsoring their annual Bake or Steak Roast beginning at 2 p.m. You have a choice of clams or steak.

The Slovene-American Club of Houston is the first Slovene Club in the State of Texas. One year later, in July of 1986, the Slovene-American Club was the host club to the Slavic Heritage Festival. President Golick had appointed John Kohli as General Chairman of all activities, Frank Klaus as Mass Chairman, Christine Erzen Connolly as Choir Chairlady with orders to form a choir. Others were appointed to multiple duties. All responded in typical Slovene fashion! Bishop Pevec’s Mass was highlighted during the processional by the Knights of Columbus Honor Guard, by a Color Guard of all of the national flags of the participating groups and by the Chairman of each Slavic Group present and by youths and children in native costumes. The seventeen member choir, organized in April of 1986 and linguistically coached by Christine Erzen Connolly and musically directed by Ukrainian Lou Popowskji sang all traditional Slovenian hymns, from the processional through the recessional, in four part harmony. An integral part of the Mass, the songs brought tears to the eyes of the Slavic brothers and sisters joined together at this special Mass. Schubert’s “Ave Maria” was sung by Tenor Will Connolly. Participating in this 1986 Slavic Heritage Festival were Czechs, Poles, Croatians, Ukrainians and Slovenes. A high spot of the celebration was a combined chorus wherein all the Slavic choral groups join together in singing each others native songs in each language and, thus, paying tribute to each others heritage. Lisa Klaus of Houston was named ‘‘Slovenian Princess” for 1986 as Jocelyn Peterman of Houston relinquished her 1985 crown.

Zebot WASHINGTON-In Belgrade, the quadrennial congress of the League of Communists of Yugoslavia has just been concluded. Like the previous meeting in 1982, this one has not reached a badly needed decision. 1 have heard a sober warning from inside Yugoslavia. It is worth listening to. The fact is that in Yugoslavia a most difficult economic situation is combining with the erosion of governmental authority to cause an increasingly serious crisis. In spite of the optimism of the distinguished dissident Milovan Djilas in this respect, the resulting conditions are such that the possibility of a complete disintegration cannot be excluded. There is no doubt that upheavals in Yugoslavia are riot in the interest either of East or West. Having enough problems already in Poland and Afghanistan, the Soviet Union does not now appear interested in incorporating into its own orbit the territory of Yugoslavia, so fragile politically and increasingly passive economically. In the West, on the other hand, there is a strong awareness that disorders in Yugoslavia could have unforeseen consequences for the, (dis-)equilibrium of forces between the East and the West in the Balkans and in the adjoining Adriatic-Mediterranean region. Some Western as well as Eastern observers see in a revived Yugoslav “unitarism,” through a recentralization of government, the best chance for overcoming the crisis. This expectation is flawed. Unitarist Illusion Yugoslavia came into being at the end of World War 1 in 1918 as the “Kingdom of the Serbs, Croats and Slovenes.” Until then the Slovenes and Croats had lived in the two parts of the Habsburg Empire under the Austrian and Hungarian domination. Because the Austrians and Hungarians were not willing, even after losing a war, to reform the empire into a voluntary union of equal nations, the Slovenes and the Croats, for their common pro- tection, opted for the union with Serbia. The Serbs and the Montenegrins, however, had achieved their independence considerably before World War I. Their national government received a big boost from the Balkan Wars of 1912 and 1913, and from the fact that at the end of World War 1 they were on the side of the victorious Entente. In double exuberance they envisaged the new Serb-Croat-Slovene union as Greater Serbia and promptly imposed on it their centralist rule. Yet the previous several cen-turis of subjugation within the Ottoman Empire had held the people of Serbia back in cultural and economic development, while in Slovenia and in northern parts of Croatia illiteracy had disappeared, artisan production was already quite advanced, and large-scale manufacturing had begun to emerge well before World War I. With the advance of industrialization in pre-World War II and postwar Yugoslavia, this contrast grew even larger. Thus two centers of gravity pull in Yugoslavia, a strong economic center in the Northwest (with a weak political power) and a strong political center in the Southeast (with a much weaker economic base). And because the two contrasting centers are associated with different national entities-the Northwest with the Catholic Slovenes and Croats, the Southeast with the Orthodox Serbs and Macedonians as well as Bosnian Moslems and Kosovo Albanians-the disparity between the two has been magnified by growing national tensions ever since the misguided inception of Yugoslavia in 1918 as a Serbian-imposed unitary state without essential national autonomies. The aggravated tensions between the economic center in the Northwest and the political center in the Southeast are strongly reflected in the contrasting approaches to the severe economic problems of today. In the Northwestern republic of Slovenia there is an awareness of the need for a self-supporting orientation to the economy, using the combination of high"~productivity and good management for im proving the country’s competitive position in the >nter™* tional division of labor. In Southeastern republics, on tn other hand, the illusion centralized administrative co trol over the entire society' the only source of redemptm still prevails.

During the Spanish American war, because of their fear of Spanish war ships, the Key West Sponge Fleet put into Tarpon Springs, to dispose of their cargo of sponge. From this small beginning, there developed the Tarpon Springs Sponge Exchange, the largest sponge market in the world. In 1905 the first divers were brought in by John K. Cheney, an early settler. The divers came from Greece and the islands of Aegina, Halki, Kalymos and Symi. John Cocoris was the first Greek to come there and he insisted on bringing Greek divers to carry on the sponge industry on a large scale.

There are thousands of varieties but only a few are suitable for commerce, and only four of these are found in the Gulf of Mexico. A blight hit the sponge beds in the 1940s and reduced the sponge fleet from over 200 to just a handful today. There are 18 churches in Tarpon Springs, representing 16 denominations. Saint Ignatius began as a tiny mission in 1888. This Catholic Church has grown to a modern parish of over 2,500 families. It has been cited as one of the most beautiful churches in Florida. I took a stroll along Dodecanese Boulevard and saw the Sponge Docks. Here one can discover the history of the Tarpon Springs sponge diving industry plus 1900s Greek spongers village, and sponge diving show. A diver in full gear demonstrates techniques, bringing up live sponges. Several restaurants are here specializing in Greek food. If you wish you can go on a 1/2 hour cruise on a genuine sponge boat. There are also -antique and boutique shops, including gift shops. Fishing boats come in with their catch and you can watch these fishermen as they filet them.

(Continued from page 10) The leveling mechanisms Mr. Šinigoj was alluding to have already been imposed by Belgrade to reach deep into the economic structure of Slovenia. Thus, for example, TAM, an automobile plant in Maribor, Slovenia, had to cut back its production because its efficiency threatened the existence of the FAP factory in Priboj na Limu, Serbia. TAM had to change its production program so drastically that it lost affiliations in Algeria and Colombia. The most incisive instance of recent centralistic intrusioh in the country’s economy is the new foreign exchange law of 1st January. Prior to this law, exporting enterprises could at least retain 20% of »heir hajd, currency earnings trt pay -for their essential imports-for Yugoslavia’s own cuJirency is ,,not convertible. Accoiding’to ••the new law exporting enter-’ prises must cede all foreygn exchange they earn to Belgrade for allocation. i Schutz’s Advice , ’ History has shown' that Yugoslavia continues to, be composed of two culturally and politically 'different worlds. They cannot live together peacably in a political framework'," which permits Southeast to lord it over the Northwest by hook or crook. The non-fbeognition of this •fact as Yugoslavia’s original problem is the main cause for the- country’s continued repressive, and repressed, condition. Postwar Yugoslavia has already fallen twice into econ-mic problems so critical that it had to be saved by the support and financial assistance of the West, first in 1949 and again in 1981. In its newest rescue operations the International Monetary Fund unfortunately has embraced Yugoslav centralism by demanding financial guarantees and centralist economic policies by the government in Belgrade instead of encouraging promising economic units in the country. This advocacy of centralism is in direct contrast with the view expressed by U.S.Secretary of State George Shultz who, in a widely noted 1985 article in the journal Foreign Affairs titled “New Ways of Thinking,” opposed aid to governments that are bent on centralized models. Mr. Shultz recommended helping the capable and innovative in a vew spirit of *freer economic initiative. , Yugoslavia will have an in-Tdependent future only if the . ponderous machinery of the Belgrade government is reduced \o fit the confederal nature of the multinational union. „ The national republics must be permitted to return to the path of progressive liberalization from which they were forced, in 1971-72. Only in such a secure and political framework will Yugoslavia’s constituent republics begin to move toward becoming internationally competitive. Mr. Zebot, a professor of economics emeritus at Georgetown University, has written extensively on Yugoslavia. July 9 edition of the Walt Street Journal Worker’s Compensation Injured on the job?

American Home •Ameriška Domovina SLOVENIAN MORNING NEWSPAPER AMERIŠKA DOMOVINA, AUGUST 1, 1986 Fans were part of action at old League Park by Vince Gostilna At this writing, the Cleveland Indians are in the thick of the pennant race and the natives are dreaming of a World Series. Talk about the dome stadium that is to be constructed has abated somewhat. It may be because the Cleveland Stadium’s capacity of 80,000 means that a sold-out single game can bring in many, many dollars. A domed stadium would only seat about 40,000 to 50,000. Advocates of the dome stadium and those favoring the present stadium are both extolling the virtues of each of them. For this writer however, the place to see a baseball game was League park at E. 66th and Lexington Ave. N.E. The intimacy of that band-box park on Cleveland’s near East Side was unbelievable. The stands were so close to the Field that you could hear the players talking to each other on the field. The right and left fielders were near to the stands that every fan sitting there would be aware if those fielders had forgotten to use their underarm deodorant. This writer remembers one day while watching Pat Seerey, the rotund left-fielder, strike out three times. The boo-birds around the left field stands were really unloading on Pat and in a short time, the security force removed the booers and reseated them in right field. League Park has had a distinguished and long history. The ballfield was built in 1891 and the first game there was played by the Cleveland Spiders of the National League. When Cleveland entered the American League in 1901 they were first called the “Bluebirds,” later years they were known as the “Naps.” In 1915 they were renamed “Indians” after one of their real Indian ball players named Sockalexis. The small park seated 23,000 and if the crowd was larger they had to overflow onto the field. It was only 290 feet to the right field wall but it was 40 feet high, 20 feet of concrete and 20 feet of screen. (See diagram for other distances.) Transportation to the League Park was via public streetcars on the Superior and Payne Ave lines which ran to E 66th and Lexington. Parking for private automobiles was rather scarce, people living near the ballyard would rent their driveways and lawns for parking. The closer to League Park, the more the parking fee.
