Oni pa, ki nimajo niti kepice premoga, ga ne morejo dobiti več kot eno tono ali ne več kot toliko, da ga bodo imeli za sedem dni. V nekaterih vzhodnih državah je pa glede tega še hujše. V mestu Albany, N. Y. je na primer župan ukazal šolam, knjižnicam, nočnim klubim, glediščem in kegljiščem, da zaprejo do nadaljnega obvestila od nedelje naprej.

Rusi so v istem času razbili nacijem 592 letal, 2,995 tankov, 7,932 topov, 7,386 mož-narjev, 20,019 strojnic, 34,019 trukov ter mnogo drugega vojnega materiala. V Vzhodni Prusiji so se približali Rusi včeraj na 8 milj glavnemu mestu Koenigsbergu. V šleziji so prešli Rusi reko Odro že na več mestih tefl se vedno bolj bližajo glavnemu mestu šlezije, B res lavi. To je,osmo največje nemške mesto, do katerega so Rusi presekali že vse prometne zveze. Nemška vlada je včeraj potom radia pozvala domobrance na ceste, ki vodijo od vzhodne meje, da naj hite delat red. Ljudstvo namreč trumoma beži pred Rusi proti Berlinu, vsled česar so ceste popolnoma zablo-kirane. Nemški narod je kot brez glave. K temu pomagajo naciji sami, ki venomer vpijejo na radiu, da je prišla ura odločitve in da naj vsak stori svojo dolžnost, da ubrani domovino pred Rusi, ki bodo, če pridejo v deželo, odpeljali ves narod v Sibirijo. Novi uradniki Društvo Glas clevelandskih delavcev št. 9 SDZ ima za letos sledeči odbor: predsednik Frank Cesnik, podpredsednik Louis Arko, tajnik Andrew Champa, 1084 E. 74. St. tel.

ZASTAVA" VIHRA ŠE KAR NAPREJ DRŽAVNA London. — Jugoslovanska vlada izjavlja ,da niupikdar izdala ukaza ,da se nadomesti državno jugoslovansko zastavo z ono maršala Tita z rečo zvezdo. Državna zastava še vedno vihra na poslaništvu v Londonu in če bo kdaj razobešena druga, bo najprej tukaj, izjavlja vlada. Ta izjava je bila podana javnosti na vesti, da je bila na vseh jugoslovanskih ladjah razobešena Titova zastava, in enako na vseh vladnih poslopjih. -o- Obisk iz Minnesote V spremstvu Mrs. Lenaršič iz 1144 Norwood Rd. je obiskala naš urad včeraj Mrs. Mary Laurie iz Chisholm, Minn. Ostala bo pri Lenaršičevih za nedoločen čas. Tukaj je na dopustu tudi Pfc. Stanley Kordish, sin Mrd. Laurič in zet Mrs. Lenaršič. Na 1. februarja se bo vrnil #v garnizijo Lincoln, Nebraska. Jutri popoldne ibo zabava Ne pozabite, da bo jutri popoldne ob 2:45 običajna zabava v dvorani pod cerkvijo sv. Vi-Pa ne samo zabava, ampak Zavezniki so pripravljeni udariti v bogato Porurje Pariz, 26. jan. — Na zapadnem bregu reke Roer je ves nemški odpor zlomljen. Tukaj stojita zdaj pripravljeni za vdor v nemško Porurje 9. ameriška in 2. angleška armada. Pozicije teh armad so zdaj samo 22 milj od Dusseldorfa. Deveta ameriška armada je po 6 tednih zopet prešla v izpad ter se pririnila do reke Roer na pet milj široki fronti včeraj. Sedma ameriška armada, ki operira na desnem krilu bojne fronte, je včeraj čekirala nemško ofenzivo v severni Alzaciji. Amerikanci $o vrgli nacije čez reko Moder ter s tem odvrnili nevarnost za Strasbourg. Prva in tretja ameriška armada sta pa zmastili zadnji nemški odpor v Ardenih, to je v kotu Luxembourga in Belgije. Tretja armada je že dosegla več točk, s katerih so začeli Nemci ofenzivo zadnji mesec. Prva armada stoji zdaj par milj oddaljena od nemške meje. Tukaj ne kažejo Nemci skoro nobenega odpora, kar znači, da so Nemci res premestili od tukaj bojne sile ter jih poslali proti Rusom. -o-— Morda je v delu zopet novo racioniranje Washington. — Predsednik Roosevelt je apeliral na ameriški narod, naj pomaga farmarjem na vsak možen način, da se doseže kvota poljskih pridelkov, ki je bila določena za to leto. Potrebe za živila so doma in pri naših zaveznikih tako velike, da mora vsakdo pomagati, pravi predsednik. To si nekateri razlagajo zdaj, da bodo v kratkem prišle nove drastične odredbe v racioniranju živil. -o-- Maša za vojakom V pondeljek ob 8:15 bo darovana v cerkvi sv. Vida maša za pokojnim vojakom Pvt. Robert-jgii kai bolezni. NJEN JEZIK JI BO ZASLUŽIL MILIJONE Hollywood. — Znana humoristka na radiu, Joan Davis, je napravila z United Drug Co. pogodbo, da bo imela radijski program pol ure vsak teden, za kar ji bo družba plačala, reci in beri —: en milijon dolarjev. Pogodba je podpisana za štiri leta. Miss Davis bo morala iz tega pa plačati za druge talente, ki bodo nastopali ž njo na radiu. Noben komentator ali humorist na radiu ni plačan toliko. -o- Mornarica bo obdržala rezervne častnike Washington. • — Mornariško poveljstvo je apeliralo na kongres, da napravi postavo, ki bi primorala rezervne častnike ostati v službi po vojini, če bo to potrebno. Taki častniki ne bodo smeli iti v civil, ako ne bo dovolj moštva na ladjah. Kongres bo raztegnil "vojno potrebo" tudi v mirni čas. Jetika med~govedino je v Ameriki pod kontrolo Washington. — Poljedelski oddelek vlade pravi, da se je posrečilo bolezen jetike pri goveji živini skoro popolnoma za-treti ali vsaj omejiti.

No. 22 Sat., Jan. 27, 1945 Kaj pravite Ohijski demokratski politikarji so zelo kunštni ljudje. To se parvi nekateri voditelji mislijo, če niso mar prav trdno prepričani o tem, da so zajemali pamet kar z golido. Oni dan so se pokazali v vsej svoji politični gloriji, ko so spodne-sli stolček državnemu senatorju Bill Boydu, našemu hrvatskemu rojaku. Bil je namreč poprej vodja demokratov v senatu. Po zadnjih volitvah, ali v novem-zasedanju legislature, so pa demokratski voditelji uvideli silno potrebo, da odstavijo Boyda kot voditelja. Nakana se jim je posrečila in izvoljen je bil nek Lipscher. Ampak naš Bili se ni dolgo kisal za izgubljeno šaržo. Na pomoč so mu namreč prišli republikanci, ki so pametni ljudje in vidijo v človeku zmožnosti, pa so jih videli tudi v Boydu. Šli so in ga imenovali, ker imajo večino in delajo kar hočejo, v najbolj važne senatne odseke. Tako ima zdaj senator Boyd več besede kot vsi demokratje skypaj v ohij-' skem senatu. Vodstvo demokratske manjšine §i pa lahko vtaknejo za klobuk, si morda misli Bili. s,*« t'fi Bivšega podpredsednika Zed. držav, Henry Wallacea, je predsednik Roosevelt imenoval za trgovinskega tajnika in za načelnika milijonske vladne finančne organizacije RFC. Po deželi se je dvignil silen prah prbti, ker smatrajo Wallacea za levičarja in torej nevarnega ameriškemu busi-nessu. Tako silno je ameriška javnost proti Wallaceu, da ga predsednik Roosevelt ni upal postaviti za podpredsedniškega kandidata na demokratski konvenciji prošlo leto. Vedel je namreč dobro, da bi demokratska lista pogorela, če bi bil Wallace na nji. N)o, zdaj, ko so volitve končane, je pa druga moka in predsednik lahko dela po svoji volji, če se namreč senat ne bo postavil po robu. * * j * Dosedanji trgovinski tajnik je bil bankir Jesse Jones, ki je imel tako polno zaupanje kongresa, da je lahko razpolagal z bilijoni iz RFC, ne da bi kongres kaj oporekal. Torej je bil mož na mestu. Zdaj mu je pa predsednik Roosevelt pisal prijazno pisemce ter z "velikim obžalovanjem" brcnil Jonesa iz urada, da bo tako narejen prostor za Wallacea. Ampak govori se, da ni šlo v prvi vrsti zato, da napravi Jones prostor bivšemu podpredsedniku. Jones je moral plačati grehe svojega nečaka. Za lanske volitve je namreč njegov nečak v Texasu delal proti Rooseveltu in zdaj je ta to ljubeznivost povrnil stricu. Torej le ne bo držalo, da je Mr. Roosevelt grozno nerad sprejel predsedstvo za četrti termin, če zdaj tako tepe one, ki so bili proti njegovi izvolitvi. Pa potem nam, navadnim in preprostim ljudem zamerijo, če se malo popraskamo med seboj. Velike glave so šele zamirljive, velike. In kdo je ta Henry Wallace, ki je te dni tako zaprašil deželo in kateremu bi rad dal naš predsednik v roke vso trgovino in tiste lepe bilijončke? To je tisti, ki je v času, ko je bil še poljedelski tajnik, plačeval tvoj in ntoj denar farmarjem, da so dajali mlade prašiščke za umeten gnoj in žajfo,< da bi ne bilo preveč mesa v deželi. Ali pa tisti, ki je nekoč rekel, da bi morali mi Amerikanci postaviti vsak dan pred vsaka hišna vrata po vsem svetu po en kvort mleka. Seveda, račun bi plačala ti in pa jaz, pa sosedov Nace. Torej si lahko mislimo kaj bo s tistimi bilijoni tvojega, mojega in Nacetovega denarja, ako jih dobi Henry v roke. Pritoži se, pritoži, ljubček moj, če se imaš kam. i'fi :Ji Načelnik francoske vlade, general de Gaulle zahteva, da bo stala po vojni za stražo ob reki Reni, ki meji Nemčijo in Francijo, francoska armada. Hm ... Nekoč smo nekje Brali ,da je francoska armada tudi leta 1940 tam stražila. Pa so Nemci malo zacepetali in šlo je proti Parizu ko sam Elija. De Gaulle sam se ni prej ustavil kot na Angleškem. Da, zelo pogumni so vsi, ko jim ameriški fantje postavljajo nazaj fence. $ Boj na Pacifiku ni nič v primeri z bojem, ki divja v "Prosveti" med bivšim urednikom Molkom in sedanjim urednikom Gardnom. Mi stavimo na Molka. :]i Stari Churchill je leta 1941, meseca marca, če se prav spominjamo, vzel cigaro iz ust in povedal na vse štiri vetrove sveta, "da. je Jugoslavija našla svojo dušo." To je bilo takrat, ko je mladi kralj Peter s svojimi državniki pokazal Hitlerju pesti. Strašno se je to Churchillu dopadlo. Kako ne, saj je šlo v prvi vrsti za angleško kožo. Brigala je Churchilla jugoslovanska ali pa kak druga duša! Angleški imperij, ta je bil v nevarnosti. Ampak pravo jugoslovansko dušo je pokazal mladi Peter šele oni dan, ko si je upal samemu Churchillu postaviti po robu in mu je eno zagodel, da je stari državnik zgri-zel menda kak ducat cigar samega presenečenja. Petru damo popolen kredit za tak možat nastop. Prestol je izgubil itak, pa naj bo zapisan.v zgodovini vsaj kot možak, ne pa mevža, ki bi jo angleški kramarji sukali kot punčko iz cunj. Peter je šele zdaj našel svojo jugoslovan- wwmwwwiiH BESEDA IZ NARODA Mimo Washingtona v Moskvo? Mihel Brali smo, da tam v Wash-ingtonu niso naklonjeni zahtevi Slovencev in Hrvatov za povrnitev Primorske in Koroške. Če se ne motimo ,so že pred leti prihajali iz Washingtona glasovi, češ, če dobite Jugoslovani po tej vojni nazaj svojo zemljo do Wilsonove črte, ste lahko prav zadovoljni. Dobili bi tedaj nazaj Notranjsko in kos Istre, Gorica in Trst pa bi ostala pod Italijo. 'Naloga Jugoslovanov je pa seveda ta, da si skušajo pridobiti vse tam ležeče slovensko in hrvatsko ozemlje. Zakaj? Gotovo zato, ker so prepričani, da je to njihov svet. Ker so prepričani, da je ta svet njihov, so tudi trdno uver-jeni, da je na njihovi strani PRAVICA. Svoje zahteve po Primorski in Koroški torej Jugoslovani postavljajo na temelj pravičnosti. Kdor ima do kake stvari PRAVICO, bo zelo pametno ravnal, če bo najprej po mirnih potih skušal izvojevati pravico in bo izgubljeno ali ukradeno stvar nazaj dobil. Ako pa tega ne more doseči, ni nič narobe, ako si SVOJO reč tudi s silo vzame. Vprašanje pa nastane: Ali ne bom bolj brez skrbi za naprej, če se mi sporna stvar prisodi pred mirovnim sodnikom, kakor če se ne oziram na razsodišče in si jo vzamem s silo? Proti sili se vedno rada pojavi druga sila in ta druga sila bo skušala ono reč lepega dne zopet iztrgati iz mojih rok. S S takim početjem se ne ustvarja mir in mirno sožitje med narodi, ampak se snujejo nove vojske. Dosedaj še vsi mislimo, da bosta poleg Rusije imeli glavno besedo pri sklepanju miru Amerika in Anglija. To bo tisto razsodišče, ki bo dejalo nove meje. Pred to i'azsodišče se bo tudi gotovo prineslo primorsko vprašanje. Če bodo vsi sodniki, ali vsaj večina njih pri mirovni konferenci prepričani, da je jugoslovanska zahteva po Primorju pravična, bo šlo dosti gladko. Če ne bodo, ne bo šlo gladko, pa naj tudi Rusija na svojo roko odloči v prid Jugoslovanom. In če bo Rusija tako odločitev izsilila, bodisi z orožjem ali samo z moralnim pritiskom, bo na mirovni konferenci brez dvoma močno škripalo. To pa ne bo v koi'ist ne Jugoslovanom, ne ostalemu svetu. Zdaj torej pravijo: Rusija je prepričana o pravičnih zahtevah Jugoslovanov, zato se vozite le v Moskvo, na bus v Washington (in seveda London), pa lepo pozabite. Ravno narobe! .Da, ravno narobe! Rekli smo, da tu gre predvsem za pravico, v katero Jugoslovani doma in v tujini verujejo. Pravico je treba dokazati pred tistimi, ki vanjo še ne verujejo. One, ki že veruje- jo vanjo, ni treba šele prepričevati. Njim . ni treba stvari šele dokazovati. Dokazovati jo je treba tistim, ki bodo nekoč skoro gotovo o njej soodločeva-li, pa danes se niso nič prepričani. Torej se zdi pametno, dati čisto drugačen nasvet kot smo ga brali. Odkar je znano, da Washington ni za povrnitev Primorja in drugega jugoslovanskega ozemlja pod tujim jarmom, bi se moralo začeti čisto znova veliko gibanje, da se Washington (in London) poučita in uverita o PRAVIČNI stvari Jugoslovanov. Morale bi se odpreti nove bu-sne linije v Washington in veliko ticketov bi se moralo pokupiti pri njih. Razumete? Saj zdaj je jasno, če je res vse tako kot se predstavlja, da v preteklosti ni bilo dosti najemanja busov, ki vozijo v Washington. No in — London. Razen, če misli kdo, da bo Moskva odločala — brez Washingtona in Londona in sploh brez vsakega drugega. V tem slučaju seveda lahko odpade vsak bus v Washington in ga tudi v preteklosti ni bilo treba. Ampak v tem slučaju ni prav čedno od ameriških državljanov, da se nad to možnostjo navdušujejo. Drugič pa, če je v Moskvi že ZDAJ vse odločeno, potem niso bili niti v preteklosti ftiti niso sedaj potrebni — busi v Moskvo. Čemu — ko je baje že vse gotovo? No, zdaj pa dajmo še Bol-težarju besedo, kadar pride na vrsto. Slovenski ujetnik piše Naslednje pismo je prejelo naše uredništvo od slovenskega fanta, ki se.ijahaja med nemškimi ujetniki v Ameriki. Pismo se glasi: Ruston, La. — Polnonaslov-uredništvo! Morda mi bo to dovoljeno, da pišem bratom rojakom zahvalo glede pošiljanja slovenskih besed. "Ameriška Domovina" se mi gotovo zelo dopade Prav vplivno se ustavi tudi vsak mojih sojetnikov Slovencev v kotičku, kjer se mnogo razpravlja o slednjem doživetju rodne zemlje. V mnogem si — marsikdo ustvarja celo drug obraz. Blagodejno, v čemer zahvala vseh, vplivajo dobrodelnosti Slovencev in Slovenk, ki se v toliki meri spominjajo trpečih na rodni slovenski zemlji. Da bi se vsi raztreseni Slovenci, čigar ideal trpi za žicami v a-meriških taboriščih med Nemci — mogli združiti in iti v za-željeno pomač krkavečim domovom, dosežen bi bil cilj in marsikdo bi prihranil na besedah !

Ker nisem videla glasovnice poprej, sem si jo predstavljala tako-le: "No-Strike pledge" in se bojim, da bodo nekateri volili, kjer je tiskano "NO." Za boljše razjasnilo podajam spodaj označbo, kako je treba voliti in sicer: "Do you favor the action of the Ninth Convention of the UAW-CIO, which reads as follows: "Resolved that this convention reaffirm-in-Chief of our Armed Forces and our Country."

Delniška seja Slovenske zadružne zveze Kot po navadi, bomo imeli tudi letos glavno letno sejo slovenske zadruge. Seja bo prihodnjo nedeljo, 28. januarja v Slovenskem domu na Holmes Ave. Vabljeni ste vsi delničarji in delničarke ter zastopniki društev, da se seje gotovo udeležite. Na dnevnem redu imamo veliko za urediti v teh kritičnih časih, kar se tiče življenjskih potrebščin in poslovanja zadruge. Več ko nas bo, večji bo uspeh. Direktorij želi spremeniti par točk v pravilih, ker se nam vidi, da bo v korist organizacije. Dolžnost vaša je, da se te seje udeležite. Slišali boste tudi poročilo za minulo leto. Upam,da boste vsi navzoči na tej seji in želim, da bo to zadnja v tem vojnem klanju, ter da se bodo naši fantje vrnili nazaj domov, in se ponovno organizirali v zadružnem gibanju. Naša bodočnost je le v Zadružništvu. Po seji bomo imeli nekoliko razvedrila kot običajno druga leta. Upam, da seja ne bo dolga, ker direktorij je vse ukrenil, da bo dal vsak izmed nas kratka poročila. Torej še enkrat vas vabim, da se te seje gotovo udeležite. Z zadružnim pozdravom, Anton Bojkal, predsednik. -o- Članom društev Najsv. Imena V vsaki cerkvi je enkrat na leto žegnanje, tako smo rekli v starem kraju. Tudi pri vsakem društvu je enkrat na leto glavna letna seja, kjer se naredi program za prihodnje ali tekoče poslovno leto. Tudi Zveza društev Najsv. Imena ima letno sejo in sicer pri fari sv. Lovrenca v nedeljo 28. januarja. Ob dveh popoldne bodo v cerkvi litanije in blagoslov, nato pa se bo vršila letna seja. Pridite vsi odborniki in zastopniki k tej seji. Pridite tudi drugi člani. Prav posebno pa vabim člane iz fare sv. Lovrenca. Pokažite s svojo navzočnostjo, da resnično cenite to društvo in da ste ponosni, da ste člani tega takp potrebnega društva, ker njega posmrtnina je vaša tudi po smrti. Pride čas, ko bomo morali vse svoje posvetno premoženje zapustiti svojim naslednikom in dedičem, a dobra dela, če jih bomo kaj imeli, pa ponesemo s seboj v večnost. Koliko jih je bilo še lansko letb med nami čilih, močnih in zdravih, letos jih ni več. In prihodnje leto bo morda že kateri izmed nas v večnosti. , Zato člani društva Najsvetejšega Imena, pridite v nedeljo popoldne ob dveh v cerkev k molitvi in po tem opravilu pa v cerkveno dvorano k skupni seji. Skušalo se bo, da bo zborovanje kolikor mogoče kratko in potem medsebojni pogovori pa bolj dolgi.

Beany Orehek, Fred Merhar, and Joe Avsec donned new gowns and tilt fiats for the occasion and were they ever sharp! These "three little sisters'' won the hearts of all with their song and dance.

THE END OF A PERFECT DAY These days most of us put in many hours in hard labor, causing us to be greatly fatigued at the end of the day. However, if we began the day with prayer, the Morning Offering, asking God's blessings to strengthen us in our works, so should we close the day with a prayer of Reparation and Thanksgiving. How often we fall short of our goal in our strife, therefore, we should seek, to repair our faults. As,I look to find an Evening Prayer that expresses one's full sentiments, I have come upon one which was taught me years ago. It was memorised as a class project, somewhat a burden then, now appreciated a great deal more. Those of us who truly love Mary, Our Heavenly Mother, will agree that it is worth memorizing as an appropriate Evening Prayer: Night is falling, Dear Mother, The long day is o'er, And before Thy loved image, I am kneeling once more. To thank Thee for keeping me Safe through the day, To ask Thee this night To keep evil away. Many times have I fallen Today, Mother Dear, Many graces neglected, Since 1 last knelt here. Wilt Thou not in pity My own Mother mild. Ask Jesus to pardon The sins of Thy child? I am going to rest, For the day's work is done, Its hours and its moments Have passed one by one. And the God who will judge me Has noted them all, He has numbered each grace, He has counted each fall. In his book they are written Against the last day, 0 Mother ask Jesus To wash them away! For one drop of His Blood, Which for sinners was spilt, Is sufficient to cleanse The world of its guilt. And if ere the dawn 1 should draw my last breath, And the sleep that I take Be the long sleep of death, Be near me. Dear Mother, For Jesus' dear sake, When my soul on eternity's Shore shall awake. Amen. , SINGING AT CHILDREN'S MASS Last Sunday, those who had gone to the 9 o'clock Mass were somewhat startled at the beautiful singing.
