Pet milijonov delavcev bo odslov-1 jenih, če se bo rudarska stavka nadaljevala Washington, D« C« 3. dec.— Federalna vlada je naznanila odmor v zadevi Johna L. Lewisa in rudarske unije UMWA potem, so notranji tajnik Krug in Jugi federalni uradniki nasto-ili kot priče pred federalnim listriktnim sodiščem. Izjavili so, da je Lewis namenoma pro-vociral rudarsko stavko, ki bo, ^ bo trajala še 48 dni, povzroča ekonomski polom in rezul-tirala v odslovitvi 5,000,000 de-avcev v drugih industrijah. Konec je prišel, ko je federalni sodnik T. Alan Goldsborough naznanil, da bo on predložil evidenco" danes; na podlagi evidence bo padla odločitev o Lewisovi krivdi ali nekrivdi. Lewis se ni pokoril odredbi sodišča, da mori preklicati obvestilo, da je pogodba med vlado in unijo potekla 20. novembra, nakar je bil obložen žaljenja sodišča. Odredba je bila izdana 18. novembra. Welly K. Hopkins, Lewisov odvetnik, je ponovil izjavo, da federalno sodišče nima jurisdik-eije, sodnik Goldsborough pa je dejal, da ima vso oblast. "Jutri bo sodišče predložilo evidenco, da se Lewis in drugi uradniki unije niso pokorili odredbi," je rekel Goldsborough. lewisovi odvetniki so priznali, da so bili člani rudarske uni-je obveščeni, da je pogodba potekla. Pomožni justični tajnik John F. Sonnett, ki je tožilec, je dejal, da je bilo obvestilo v bi-itvu poziv na stavko, kakor tudi kršenje provizij Connally-Smi-thovega zakona, ki prepovedu jejo oklic stavke v industrijah, katere obratuje federalna vlada. Ta zakon je bil sprejet v vojnem času. Krug je dejal, da je Lewis predložil nove zahteve, ki bi, če bi bile sprejete, rezultirale v podražitvi tone premoga za 50 centov Omenil je, da se je dvakrat »stal z Lewisom in člani poga-jalnega odbora rudarske unije z namenom, da jih pridobi za izravnavo konflikta. Njegova prizadevanja so se izjalovila. Izgleda, da stavka rudarjev na polju mehkega premoga ne bo kmalu končana. Kongresnik knkin, demokrat iz Mississippi in znan sovražnik delavcih unij, je konfcriral s prednikom Trumanom v Beli hi-* Po konferenci je naznanil, jp bo Truman v avoji poslanici *>vemu kongresu, ki se bo se-Jhl v zasedanju po novem letu, Sporočal sprejetje protista v- kovne zakonodaje. Dalje je rekel, da Truman ne bo sklical izrednega zasedanja kongresa. Odslovitve delavcev zaradi rudarske stavke se nadaljujejo. Sodi se, da je bilo čez 100,000 delavcev odslovljenih v zadnjih dneh. Joseph R. McCarthy, republikanec iz Wisconsina, ki je bil izvoljen za senatorja pri novembrskih volitvah, je naznanil, da bo predlagal sprejetje zakonodaje, da se potisne 400,000 rudarjev v armado. Kot vojaki bodo morali obnoviti produkcijo premoga, v obratnem slučaju, če bi se uprli, pa bodo postavljeni pred vojaško sodišče, katero jim bi naložilo kazni. "Ako bo Lewis zmagal v sedanji kontroverzi z vlado," je dejal, "bodo izbruhnile stavke v drugih industrijah Domače vesti V bolnišnici Detroit.—Mary Massar, Članica društva 121 SNPJ, se nahaja v bolnišnici Ann Arbor.

Neki časnikar ga je vprašal, ali je za pobijanje rudarjev, če bi se upirali. McCarthy je odgovoril, da on ne predlaga nobene kazni, ker to spada v področje vojaškega sodišča. Amerika je še v vojni in Lewisa je treba prepričati, da bodo kazni težke, če se bo še nadalje upiral. Zdravniki simpati-zirajo z rudarji Izboljšanje delovnih pogojev potrebno Chicago, 3. dec. — Ameriški zdravniki simpatizirajo z rudarji, njihovo unijo UMWA, ki skuša uključiti provizije o varnosti zdravja rudarjev v pogodbo. Tako se glasi članek, katerega je objavilo glasilo Zveze ameriških zdravnikov.

Stopil je je z visokega odra in "zanikal" poročilo v liatu Daily Worker, glaailu komunistične stranke, da bo Velika Britanija kmalu sklenila vojaški pakt z Ameriko. List je citiral i*j9vo besednika vojnega urada, "da bo pakt stopil v veljavo, kakor hitro bo A. V. Alexander fi^evzel po*l-cijo obrambnega mi&iatra." Značilno je to, ker vojni urad le taji, ne pa zanika, sklenitev pakta. Drugi listi očitajo vojnemu uradp nerodnost. Zavseli so stališče, da bi moral Uradno zanikati poročilo, ali pa molčati.

Amerika se še obotavlja glede delitve baz na Pacifiku z Veliko Britanijo in njenimi dominion!. Zilliacua je znan kot nasprotnik politike trde pesti proti Rusiji.

Pjosim vse prizadete, ako ne bi imel kateri še vstopnice in vabila do danes, naj me obvesti osebno, ali pa pokliče po telefonu Majestic 2443. Zaeno apeliram tudi na starejše članstvo, da se udeleži te priredbe v velikem številu, kajti bo velikega pomena za vsa društva, ki zborujejo v Slovenskem narodnem domu. Dne 8. dec. pa se bo vršila glavna seja društva Sloge 14 SNPJ. Članstvo se naj udeleži te seje v velikem številu. Frances Zakovšek. tajnica. ČLANSTVU DRUŠTVA 104 SNPJ Waal Allia, Wia. — Članstvo društva 104 SNPJ je vabljeno na letno sejo, ki se bo vršila 13. dec., začetek točno ob sedmih zvečer v Kraljevi dvorani, 6001 W. Madison St., West Allis. Potrebno je, da se seje udeležimo prav vsi, kajti na dnevnem redu bomo imali več važnih zadev, kakor tudi volitev odbora za 1. 1947. Naše seje so bile v tekočem letu zadosti dobro obiskane, morda zato, ker imamo že sedem mesecev stavko pri Allis Chalmers Co., ki je ena največjih tovarn v državi Wisconsinu. Delavci so vseeno utrujeni, kajti hodijo vsak dan na stavkovno stražo pred tovarno, obenem pa tudi gledajo one, ki hodijo na delo, čeprav je stavka, in tako izkoriščajo delavski položaj. Torej, bratje in sestre društva 104 SNPJ, potrudite se in pridite na glavno sejo. Saj smo delavci, ne kapitalisti. Ako bi bili vsi kapitalisti, potem ne bi potrebovali podpornih organizacij kot je naša Slovenska narodna podpor-na jednota. Poročati tudi moram, da je nekaj članov našega društva v gos- tudi eno steklenico dobrega žganja, da bomo ugasili žejo v naših grlih. Imeli bomo tudi prost prigrizek in dobre kranjske klobase. Na sejo bo mogoče prišel tudi naš novi član Edward in seboj prinesel harmoniko ter zaigral par okroglih. Torej vsi na sejo 13, dec. v Kraljevo dvorano, da bomo lahko izvolili ves nov odbor. Pridejo naj tudi tisti, da bodo pokazali starim odbornikom, da znajo bolje delati za članstvo, društvo in jednoto kot stari odborniki. Apeliram tudi na članstvo, da poravna asesment ob pravem času, tako da bom imel knjige v redu in jih lahko oddal. Po zaključku pobiranja prispevkov za otroško bolnišnico v Sloveniji sta darovala Joseph in Mary Žagar $8*50. Meseca oktobra pa je bila pomota v Prosveti in namesto Žagar je bilo napisano Zanar, 2197 So. 95. st, West Allis. Joseph in Mary, prldita k meni in vama bom dal izkazi Io, da sta bila v zadnjem kampanjskem pobiranju za otroško bolnišnico v Sloveniji. Ne pozabite priti na sejo v petek, 13. dec., začetek točno ob sedmih zvečer v Kraljevi dvorani. Joseph T. Turk, tajnik. PREDVAJANJE FILMOV IN LETNA SEJA Cleveland.

VOLITVE IN DRUGO Dat roil, Mich.—Da so letne seje važne, bi moral vedeti vsak član SNPJ. Niso važne le zato, ker se voli društveni odbor, važne so iz več razlogov. Na letnih sejah se pregleda, koliko je društvo imelo uspeha skozi celo leto, če so društveni odborniki vestno vršili dane jim naloge ter da se napravijo uspešni načrti za bodoče leto. Da je društveni odbor glava društva, je resnica, zato je važno, da člani izvolijo 'dober odbor, toda društvo uspeva naj bo lje tam, kjer so vsi člani aktivni in se udeležujejo vseh sej rednih in izrednih. Posebno važ no je, da so člani aktivni pri društvih, kjer je večina starih članov. Kajti pri takih društvih se bela žena s koso kaj rada u stavi in pokosi zdaj enega zdaj drugega. Pri našem društvu se zadnje čase zelo pogosto ustavlja; v tem letu nam jih je pokosila že štiri in če ne bo šla kam na počitnice, nam lahko še kakšnega ugrabi, predno bo to leto šlo v Ce hočemo naše društvo stiti z novim.

RAZPUST FEDERACIJE Saa Francisco, CaL—Uradno se naznanja, da je bilo 24. nov. konec federacije SNPJ za severno Californijo. Glavni vzrok za razpustitev je bil, ker ni bilo zadnjih pet let nobenega zanimanja za organizacijo, povrhu tega pa še država zahteva registracijo raznih organitacij. Zadnje federacijske seje to se udeležili: Frank Slaby, predsednik, John Barich, podpredsednik, A. Hrast, blagajnik, in naš velikan A. Tomsic. Zadnjih $20 federacijska premoženja smo darovali za otroško bolnišnico v Sloveniji. A. Lelcaan. nekdanji tajnik. VESELICA BRIDGE-PORT8KE FEDERACIJE Ballaire.

HRARD Ohio —Our thanks to all ZZ i0yal members and followers who contributed so much toward, recent successful dance. This the greatest affair in all fields iTrecent years.

In most cases, the committee worked the entire evening without the slightest opportunity of individual enjoyment. It is not a pleasant task. you may be sure, but they assumed it with « gracious manner. The lack of member interest will be dealt with later on in this article. While speaking of dances, let me announce that Lodges 49 and 643 (that's us!) are sponsoring a New Year's Eve dance at the local Slovene Hall. Music by Joe Umeck. Prepare yourself now for a happy evening. Details will come later after the combined committee meets. What About a Merger? Under regular lodge procedure I brought up a proposal regarding a possible merger with Lodge 49. I was not concerned so much with which lodge sponsored the proposal as I was with the strengthening of our units here in Girard. Let us understand that this will not be forced through without the members' consent. I hope that a great deal of discussion will be given the matter. In fact, % lack of interest will indicate further that a merger is in order. No vote will be talcen until everybody has been heard. No doubt, sentiment will prevail in some cases. All well and good. But I maintain that we must be practical. Our monthly meetings have been without productive remits. Our attendance has been weak and pitiful and attendance is the yardstick by which we deter-nii* the success of a lodge. Al-ttouRh we hdVfc o'vef a hundred members, it is impossible to arrange for a staggered system of aid during any of our few social affairs Think it over, fellow members! Our final meeting of the year on Dec 8 will entertain the first discussion on this most important topic. Attend! Attend in such magnificent stream that we shall be forced to use the large hall! Prepare to debate! Prepare to defend! Juvenile Circle The Juvenile Circle will sponsor it« annual Christmas Party on Mon-December 23.

Lot rich CHICAGO, ILL.—The annual meeting of the Pioneers is scheduled for December 20. It will be a very important meeting, so we urge our members to plan on attending.—We are cooperating with the Chicago District Federatino of SNPJ for this year's children's Yule Party which is set for Sunday, December 22, at the SNPJ Hall. Because we have the largest number of children of any Chicago lodge, we will have to perform our share of the work. John Rak is now soliciting workers for the affair. The gifts have already been purchased by the federation committee and it is expected that we will have full participation from all the members, the young, as well as the old. • • • A big GI and Veterans' Party is coming up for the Pioneers on January 11, 1947. It will be held at the Lawndale Masonic Temple, 2300 S. Millard ave. Every Pioneer veteran and GI is being invited to attend and to bring with him his wife, or his sweetheart. Eat. and drinks will be absolutely free. Other Pioneer, and friends will be able to participate in the affair at a nominal charge of three dollars each. A program is now being rigged up which will include some professional talent and good dance music. Invitations are now being prepared and will be put into the mail this week. Reservation sare necessary because we must know in advance how much food and drinks to prepare. Reservations can be made with the Pioneer secretary. Just send in your three dollars and a note that will positively reserve a place for you. • » » Several Pioneers will go to Milwaukee this weekend to participate in the 20th anniversary of the Badgers Saturday night. Then, on the following day, the Pioneer bowlers are making a return engagement against the Badger, in their .et of home and home matches. The same two squad, which bowled in Chicago are booked. One girl.' .quad will make the trip also. Because the Badgers are able to put together additional squads, if necessary, othir Pioneers wanting to make the trip with the bowlers should get ln touch with the Pioneer secretary. There is always room for additoinal bowlers. • • • If you haven't secured your copy of "Dinner at the White House," you can purchase it at the office of the Pioneer secretary. They cost $2.50, and are autographed, by Brother Adamic. In hia short note which was included with the books, Louis tells us that he is kept very buiy. We thought that Winston Churchill'* suit against Bro. Adamic because ot the statements in the book will promote the sale of the book.--Gloria Ceretto has gone to the hospital for an operation. Members can visit her at the Illinois Mssonic Hospital.— Louis Bogolin shot an extra high game in the Pioneer bowling league last week, a 243. That's good shooting In any league. Several other bowler, are now hitting good marks regularly.—Clara Bakule, Eva Ko-vach and Godfrey Krempusch are still on the sick list. • • • "In Fact" for November 18 come* out with the story of the miracle match which could light 1000 times but which neve^ reached the market. They couldn't think of leaving such sn article reach the market because it would seriously cripple the match buslneas. The company involved la the Diamond Match Co. It la really a aha me that our society and our economic system is so set up that it cannot use the many blessings bestowed upon it by the brilliant minds of man. This story was reported among the many aimilar ones on free enterprise and on tho anti-trust laws. "In Fact" deserve* many more reader, because only informed people are able to make proper decisions. The world i. in a mess because the statesmen are dishonest and because they do everything to benefit their class. The things done are generally in contradiction to the truth and to tho natural way in which they should be done. We urge SNPJ members to subscribe to this weekly new. letter. • • • We are really glad to see that progressive forces in this country have been able to do something to arouse indignation against Theodore Bilbo, senator-elect from Mississippi. We understand the case against Bilbo will be heard by the Senate committee on January 3 and the Chicago Civil Liberties Committee to whom the Pioneers contribute from time to time has done much to bring thin to the front. We hope that the Senate committee will not recommend seating him because of his fascistic and definitely undemocratic election campaign.—We see where the various bible institute, and religiouk groups are now advertising for pro.-pective convert.. Large ad. are appearing in the Chicago newspapers and though the .torie. have no basin on which to judge the truthfulness of them, they generally go unchal lenged. Scientists will tell us that these people have no proof for what they preach. Yet, it has gotten to be so much the order of the day that people believe such things. Whfen they are challenged, a. happened in a recent radio broadcast in Califor nia, they cry with indignstion about the Indecency and the daring of any one to challenge them. • • • The same story about the coal miners is being repeated again. Big busineas»ta«sgsfcift tha .tr|kM», yet the whole 'cduntry recognizes how important the lowly coal-miner real ly is. The entire country i. put out snd the wheel, of industry io general are affected because the coal miners do not dig coaL Yet. the same people who recognize they would never want to dig coal fall to sec the necessity for paying these cosl-miners a living wage. * • * To Jennie Padar: As soon as I get time I'll tell you the facta about aome of the thing, you wrote a couple of week. ago. Avella News AVELLA, Pa.—One more reminder to member, of Lodge 292 of our yearly meeting. The Importance of thi. meeting cannot be .tressed too much.

S. and are also of an international cartel that cr J trols a major part of the world! output of bulbs dl This was revealed Nc.v 4 in J advance portion of Cartels In /3 tion, a forthcoming study bv t J 20th Century Fund that Rives «3 histories of how cartels operate! a number of specific fields. | GE and Westinghouse have deiibl erately reduced the length of ljl bulbs presumably in order to briij about more frequent rtplacemenl and thus increase sales, the repel said. It quotes from a memoraj dum that figured in court proceed! ings in which a GE enmne*r nl ported to an official in 1932: | "Two or three years ago, we pro! posed a reduction in the life J flashing lamps from the old bail on which one lamp was supposed!« outlast three batteries, to a poirl where the life of the lamp and thl life of the battery under servwl conditions would be approximatell equal. Some time ago, the batteri manufacturers went part way wit] us on this and accepted lamps ol two-battery lives instead of three! This has worked out very satisfacJ torily. "We have been continuing oul studies and efforts to bring aboul the use of one battery life lampi ... If this were done, we estimate! that it would result in increasing our flashlight business approximate! ly 60%." Length of life of bulbs for thd world market was fixed by the inJ ternational cartel formed in 1924J Organized as a Swiss corporation! known as Phoebus, the cartel's lead-! ing members included Osram. the! German combine; Philips, the hugel Dutch concern; Tungsram, the Hun-| garian group; the British Associated] Electrical Industries, the Compagniel des Lampes in France; Intl. GE ofl New York Ltd. and the socalledl Overseas Group consisting of GeI subsidiaries in Brazil, China and! Mexico. "The cartel had two acknowledg-l ed major functions: exchange ofl patents and technical information.! and division of markets," the report! said. "Price competition was ruled I out indirectly—by insuring each! member a stipulated portion of the | market." Result of the cartel is "a worldwide patent pool," it continued. Virtually all patents and technological information on electric lamps, however developed, are funded. Moreover the process by which they have been assembled in a common pool limits their use to firms that faithfully adhere to a concerted business policy." Although the monopoly greatly reduced prices at the same time that It cut the life of bulbs, the report concluded: "It is clear, how-ever, that consumer preferences did not determine producers' polio' R.L.A.

V"«"^ annual meetint of Y«* lodge! t ' TDNESPAY, DECEMBER 4, 1P46 ALTHOUGH not officially an- ^nced it is reliably reported that riHesl; ^sue has finally been 'Expected, the long drawn out P nuarrel among the foreign ministers ime to a head last.week when a Smpromise was reached on all Sjor questions relating to Trieste and its future government. As 1 understand the report, the ministers agreed "to order the governor" of Trieste to announce 90 days after taking office whether foreign occupation troops should regain or whether they could be with- drawn. , - On the other hand, if the governor decides that the troops must remain, they will do so until danger of disturbance has passed. Russia wanted a definite date in earlier discussions Thus neither Jugoslavia nor Italy will get Trieste, although the former has a legitimate claim to the port city on all counts. TRIESTE will be internationalized and will be under the protection of the United Nations Security Council. The ministers also agreed to cut the number of troops to 5,000 each from Jugoslavia, the United States and Britain when the proposed governor takes office. While this arrangement doesn't seem bad, it seems to me that Russia as one of the great powers should also be permitted tp have 5,000 troops in Trieste. This would balance up the Anglo-American forces of 10,000 on a fifty-fifty basis as against Russo-Jugoslav forces of an equal number. As it is now, the Anglo-American troops will easily dominate the situation in the Trieste territory, which « preponderantly Jugoslav both In population and character. LACKING detailed official information, it is too early to say just how the settlement reached by the ministers will work out. Let us hope that the "free terrl tory" of Trieste will fare much bet ter under the new setup of the U. N Security Council than the ill-fated "free territory" of Danzig fared un der a Bomewhat similar arrangement of the lute League of Nations. Since Trieste is on Jugoslav soil, it should go to Jugoslavia which alone has the rightful claim to that region on ethnical, historical, economic as well as political and geographica ground. Trieste was liberated from the Nw.is by Jugoslav troops early in May 1945. Soon thereafter, under terrific pressure of the English, Ju goslavia withdrew its troops. I still think that this was the greatest mistake on the part of the Jugoslav government. . . Lodge 540 News ELIZABETH. N.

You are all aware of the fact that the annual meeting is your most important meeting, ever so many important discussions take place that govern the lodge throughout the year, and of course, your election of officers is on the agenda ns well. We realize that many of you have had good intentions during the past 12 months but interference of some nature has made it impossible for you to attend the monthly meetings, but this time I'm afraid we cannot accept any excuses. Therefore, as of right now mark Dec. 14 on your calendar and in your mind so that you will not forget and then regret.

Y. 1 tako exception, particularly, to those parts of her article which attempt to discredit me and cast doubt on my competence and lntogrity. Frankly, I do not know who to blame more, the editor who permitted the article to be published in ita entirety or the author who wrote it. In my opinion both were guilty of violating the by-laws, tor when a member writes or makes statements which effect the character and honor of another member or offieer of the Society, such an article should aot be published without first giving the member, against whom charges snd complaints have bceh made, every opportunity provided in the by-laws to clear himself. This is one of the cardinal principles of every democratic Institution, especially a fraternal society such as the 8NPJ. My files at the Main Office show what 1 have tried to do to help promote juvenile and Circle activities, rports, membership campaigns, etc. during the past five years. Letters, bulletins, articles in the Prosveta and Voice of Youth, library of books und films, and minutes of meetings contain ample proof of the extent and nature of my work and can lie offered againat any charges or complainta to the contrary, should it become necessary to do so in the future. Believe me, when I say, that I dislike nothing more than to diiouss or debate an issue of this kind in the official organ, for I fully realise that it will do neither Bister Padar or myseli any good, Knowing Sister Padar for the good work she has done in the past, I'm certain she want« only the best for the SNPJ. Those, who know me, know that my efforts and desires lead in the same direction. The only difference is that we don't always agree as to methods of attaining the best possible results under the conditions and circumstances which exist or srise. However, we are always trying to do the best we can, in the best way we know, to bring about an Improvement and increase In both luvenile and sdult activities in the SNPJ. In regard to criticism of the Committee on Juvenile Activities, let me aay thia. If Sister Padsr was not satisfied with the delegates whose names were presented to the convention for approval, why did she not ask for the floor, state her ob jections, and then move that the chairman appoint another committee compoaed of younger and, if pos siblo, more capable delegates. This probably would have caused a Utile embarrassment, but would have been a far better way of settling the question than to present it In form of a complaint in the official organ months after the convention. Anent the qualifications of (he delegates who made up the Committee on Juvenile Activities, 1 am satisfied that they were of as high caliber aa any that could be had at the 13th regular convention, Of the seven delegates on the committee, five had previous expeiience with Juvnile Circles, while the other two hsd worked on entertainment programs, parties or sport gctivlttas in which juveniles participated. lie sides this, six of them held executive office in the local lodges. They al* had good qualifications and a genuine interest in the welfare of SNPJ youth, otherwise their names would not have been proposed for approval to the convention. The complaint waa made by Sister Padar that time did not permit a more complete research and study to elaborate on the program prepared by the committee It's true that time was at a premium and that almoef everything hsd to he rushed, perhaps, a little too much and at Ihe expense of aome hiss of democracy, The delegates, however, were determined to wind-up the business of Ihe convention in six days, the shortest on record, and that'« exactly when It ended Then, too, it must not lie overlooked thai all, but two of the members of the Juvenile Activities Committee, served on other committees which further hendicsppeed them. Hut Si ter Pads r knew montlu In advance that there would he a con vtntlon In August. So did all ttw east of the delegates, She knew, al-lb, tint In all likelihood th<.. woul 1 he a committee on Juvenile activity*. and that some preparations would have to he made beforehand A letter written in Marti, of tM* year called her attention to whs* was sceompllshed by such a committee at the 12th regular con ven t Ion in Pittsburgh. Pa, in 1*41 It referred her" to the con ven t toft minutes book (every lodge received a copy and she had one on hand) and the exact pages <341-144-SiftJ where she would find the juvenile program approved at that conven t Ion Incidentally, that fommitter did all its work during the ronven t ion and did a commendable job However, I agree that lmpo.tant committee« should meet a day or two prior to the convention to thrssh out problems snd to drew up a sound and workable program. It will be recalled that the main purpose of the SNPJ Post-War Plans contest, which was conducted in the Prosveta last year, was to find out what the members had tu suggest for the bettero\ont of thV Society. In one of her semi-annual reports to the Juvenile Director, Sister Padar, answering a request for suggestions for improvement of Circle activities, replied, "Follow the many excellent conditions .put forth by the Post-War Plans contest. Nearly ull of the contestants had suggestions to offer in rugnrd to juveniles and Circles." She wai one of the winners in this contest. I saw value in both the minutes of the previous convention und tht Post-War vPlans and that is why I took a copy of euch along with ire to Eveleth and gave them to Sister Padar at the initial session of the Committee on Juvenile Activities. The sub-committee was instructed to pick out some of the best features from them for the committee to work on the next day. As cun Lx verified from the program of the juvenile activities, finally presented to and approved by the convention, both the program of 1941 and the Post-War Plans were referred to und used extensively. We coiftd haidly have had two better source* of Information from which to drew up a new or revised program. It was further stated in her or-tlcle that when a "sketch" of the new progrsm wss first read tn the committee, "A majority of the members opposed each point to such an extent that we would almost hsvt to report disbandmcnt of the committee to the convention." It must be admitted that the discussion wui rather lively on two or three points, but at no time did it appear tu me (hat anyone would leave the meeting room, except, when the made remarks questioning the ability and experience of certain members of the committee. This nsturally was resented and drew protestations from them. Sister Padar was reprimanded for her unfrattrnal remarks, In still another paragraph, the following statement was mads, "I was greatly disappointed in tho views of the Juvenile Director, especially when he opposed items which would have been definitely of a beneficial nature.1' In all fairness to ma snd the committee as a whole, Sister Padar should complete the story now by telling what my views were on each such item und, also, what "points" the mujor-ity of the committee opposed, refected or amended, This csn be done by hsving published in Ihe Prosveta the original "sketched" progrsm, Just ss It was presentsd by the lUh-tdinmlttee St the second session of the committee on Juve> nlle activities. Follow this up with the program in Ita final and com Rleted form, just ss It was read by er from the convention stage, Then let the members judge for them-lives; Let them see In blsck snd white what was put In or taken out, There couldn't possibly be very much either way, It might be added here, although it is of no special significance, that I was among the first to gain the floor after the program had In en read to the convention and c«ch time spoke briefly, but favorably, in support of its adoption. A number of other delegates did likewise, There was practically no opposition from anyone, and, therefore, no lengthy speeches were necessary to help put It acroes. Sister Padar, on the other hand, failed to take advantage of the opportunity to spcuk up In favor of the "points" which she now contends were strongly opposed hv a majority of the committee. Why was this not dune? Was she not told that she had the right to present a minority repirt un the floor, and, If accepted by the convention, would then become a part of Ihe programT That was the right time for such action snd not now, three months later. What I would like to know are Ihe sources (name« of persons) from whom Sister Padar claims she had opposition in the commitlen, "because It was anticipated WK would be running for the office of Juvenile Director."

"Peace! Peace!" But There Is No Peace By Scott Nautaf ' (Continued.) The road to peace is unknown to the western peoples and untrod by them. Most of them do not even know that such a road exi n The road to war is rough, but at least it is oft-trodden and well marked. It has led every people that followed it to irretrievable disaster. The road to peace is not yet built. Those who wish to follow it must survey and blaze the route and then construct the highway. They must overcome difficulties, brave dangers. The road to peace involves adventure as surely as the road to war entails disaster. Peace road and war road diverge. Those who propose to follow one must abandon the other. Perhaps this is the hardest requirement of all, for how shall a people bring itself to give up a way of life that its forefathers have followed for generations? The road to peace, moreover, like the road to war, is not a single path, bot a complex network of trails, byways and thoroughfares, all leading in the same general direction. While there is no single path that leads either to peace or to war. there are general directions—one peace-ward, the other war-ward. No two persons travel exactly alike. Some move faster than others; some join or lead groups; others walk in pairs or singly. Bjit every step taken by any individual is a step toward war or toward peace. Many steps are thoughtless or careless; few are random. Our thoughts, words and acts point unescapably in one direction or the other. In the same sense that every drop of water and every grain of sand play their parts in making the ocean and the seashore, every thought, word and deed has its part in making a world of war or a world of peace. A nation cannot move toward peace or war unless its people move in that direction. Propaganda is unceasing. Individuals and vested interests are trying to'put over ideas and policies. Pressure coups are working on governments and there is coercion of many sorts. Also there are the nursery rhymes and toys, the games that children play. So are there chance meetings and conversations, arranged discussions and many forms of adult education. The net result of all these forces* is policy, and policy either walks resolutely along the road to peace or lumbers along the road to war. Since the invasion of Manchuria in 1031, millions of people have been appalled and revolted by what they have encountered ' along the war road. The number of these disillusioned ones greatly increased after 1030. Today multitudes would like Bv Richard Giles to travel toward peace. _ , T1 .. M_ Where does the road to peace lie? , Jus*,ce J«<*son said.

Nothing less will replace the present world, at-war by a world-at-peace. Turning to particular proposals it must be taken for granted at the outset that world of sovereign arm-ed states, directed by ruling cliques and classes engaged in a competitive struggle for ^ealth and power will be a war world. No Anglo-American alliance, such as that proposed by Winston Churchill; no regional combination of competing sovereign ties such as the Pan-American Union; no Powerful Three or Powerful Five coalition of Axis or Allied super-states; no league of sovereign, armed nations, whether seated in Geneva or in New York will put the planet on a peace footing. Such combinations have been tried repeatedly. Invariably they have led to war. A world peace-pattern must transcend and supersede alliances, leagues and unions of sovereign nations. It must include a feeling of worldism as compelling as present-day nationalism, a world public opinion, world citizenship in a world government, a world constitution and world law. Basic world resources. such as minerals and fuels-vital means of transportation and communication, such as aviation and radio; essential world services, such as the post office and the trans-oceanic shipping lines; conveniences, such as money, credit and information, must all be directed locally-and nationally where possible, but "worldally" in instances involving several nations or regions. Western man is today confronted by four simple propositions. Proposition /—Keep the peace or perish. Proposition 11—Peace is indivisible and can be established only on a world-wide scale. Proposition III—The modern world can keep the peace only it it federates. Proposition IV—As individuals, we must live peaceably. As members of the human family, we live interdependently and must therefore learn to live cooperatively. THE END Rough Justice rying on constant peace propaganda. Second, in working out more satisfactory adjustments between social groups, especially between nations. Third, in establishing a pattern of cooperation as widely accepted and as generally followed as is the present pattern of competitive struggle for economic and political supremacy- Fourth, hi considering the human family as a whole and treating the world as one unit, composed of interdependent parts. Individuals, as individuals, can begin believing, feeling, thinking and acting peaceably at any moment they wish to. They need only realize the urgent necessity for such conduct and muster the determination to undertake it. For most Americans this means the radical modification of an established life-pattern; nevertheless, it may be put into operation without delay. Readjustments in social relations are on quite another level. They can be made only with the consent and support of large numbers of Individuals, widely scattered in divergent economic, political, social and ethnic groups. A transformation of the social conduct-pattern, such as a change-over from war-making to peace-making, involves revolutionary, economic, political r We hear from a "Red" Editor "Labor" is in receipt of a letter from Robert Wood, who describes himself as "editor of the 'Railroad Link'." Mr. Wood says 'Labor' printed a "snide Jittle editorial." alleging that Communists were disappointed because an all-white jury in Tennessee acquitted 23 Negroes Mr. Wood thinks "Labor" should print an apology, but "Labor" can't do that because the statement was 100 per cent true. The "Reds" hod their plans all set for a nation-wide csmpaign to convince colored people that they should flock Into "Red" camp. Fortunately. the jurors stuck to the facts and acquitted the defendants While we have Mr. Wood on the hook, we would like to point out that his letter confirms another charge made in this newspaper Some time ago "Labor" pointed out that "The Railroad Link" was a sort of a "houae organ" for "Bill" Foater and other "Reds" who have been unaucceaafullv endeavoring to "horn In" on the railroad industry.
