Cenjeni sobratje gl. odborniki:
Tukaj vam podajam moje skromno poročilo kot 3. glavni podpredsednik naše organizacije in vam obenem pošiljam pozdrave iz divnega zapada. Naj na kratko poročam, da sem točno in nepristransko odgovarjal na vse referendume, katere sem od časa do časa dobival iz glavnega urada. Točnost smatram za naj lepšo lastnost pri vsakem človeku in pri vsaki organizaciji.
Udejstvoval sem se tudi za časa naše mladinske kampanje,! in, kakor ste videli, dosegli smo v srebrni Coloradi nepričakova- j no lepe uspehe. Ne bom razlagal, kaj vse sem storil v tem oziru, ] kakor tudi ne, koliko novega članstva smo pridobili. Omenim naj le, da je bilo treba mnogo truda in da je bilo treba potrkati na masikatera vrata, da smo dosegli tako lepe uspehe pri društvu, h kateremu spadam, in tudi pri drugih društvih v Coloradu. Delegacija iz Colorada bo na 2. mladinski konvenciji častna.
Vse, kar sem tekom te kampanje storil za našo organizacijo, sem smatral kot dolžnost glavnega uradnika. Upam, da boste na sedanjem zborovanju skušali kaj ukreniti, da bomo pridobljeno mladino bolj sigurno obdržali v naši organizaciji. Z ozirom na to, je bilo neko priporočilo že poslano na glavni urad od strani coloradske federacije, in moja iskrena želja je, da kaj ukrenete v tem oziru, če vam je mogoče.
K sklepu vam želim najboljšega uspeha pri vašem trudapol-nem delu in vas bratsko pozdravljam, vdani,
Frank Okoren, 3. gl. podpredsednik.
Poročilo 3. glavnega podpredsednika se sprejme.
VSAK PO SVOJE
S počitnicami je ta križ, da so dostikrat vse kaj drugega kot počitnice. Takoj prvi dan mojih letošnjih oficielnih počitnic sem moral vstati ob pol petih zjutraj, kar se ne zgodi niti v dneh najhujšega zaposlen ja. Pa je bilo treba, sicer bi me bil vlak odvlekel predaleč. Izstopil sem v mestu Milwaukee, ki slovi po izbornem pivu, izredni čistoči in lepih de-vojkah. Zame, seveda, prideta le prvi dve odličnosti v poštev. Ahm! Bilo je še zgodaj in hodil sem precej dolgo po Wisconsin Avenue, ki je menda najlepša cesta v mestu, da sem prišel do prve odprte restavracije. Toda ta najlepša cesta je bila videti kot pravo “pohuj ;a-nje> v dolini šentflorjanski,” vsa nastlana s papirjem, čiki, osten-ki pokalic in razno navlako neznanega izvora in imena. Da bi bilo kaj takega mogoče v puritansko snažnem mestu Milwaukee, skoro nisem mogel verjeti. No, za vzrok sem kmalu izvedel : prejšnji dan se je vila skozi mesto parada Ameriške legije. Potem se nisem več čudil. Samo ugibal sem, kaj bi bilo, če bi skozi mesto korakala sovražna vojska, ko je že vesela parada domačih, prijateljskih in dobro razpoloženih vojnih veteranov pustila tako razdejanje.
* "
Druga mladinska konvencija JSKJ, ki se je v začetku tega meseca vršila v Elyu, Minn., spada nedvomno med najsvetlejše zvezde, ki so se kdaj pojavile na nebu naše Jednote. Lepših in veselejših delegatov in delegatinj še ni bilo na nobei:i konvenciji, pa tudi njihovo zadržanje jim je delalo čast ter je izzvalo vsestransko priznanje. Koliko je vredna za našo organizacijo sodobna in bodoča reklama te konvencije, je nemogoče točno določiti. Vsekakor bi si upal trditi, da je vredna za pas vsaj desetkrat več, ko nas je konvencija stala v gotovini. Saj sega in bo segala od New Yorka na vzhodu do Rocky Mountains na zapadu ter od krajev severnega sija do domovine kaktej in agav v naših pol južnih državah!
Konvencija z vsemi pritiklinami se je vršila in završila brez vsakih neprilik. Celo vremenski bogovi so ji bili sto-procentno naklonjeni. Prvi in menda edini incident se je pripetil v Duluthu, kjer smo ob povratku delegacije vlake menjali. Največji delegat, visok šest čevljev in tri palce, in drugi, le malo krajši, sta zaostala v Duluthu, ker vlak Chicago and Northwestern železnice ni hotel čakati. Spremljevalca iz Ohio in Illinoisa sta bila nekaj časa v strahu za svoja varovanca, toda po izmenjavi par brzo-i javk so bili spet vpostavljeni diplomatski stiki. Pri inciden-j tu je bilo najbolj zanimivo dej-| stvo, da ne noben malih delegatov ni izgubil.
*	t	.
Zaključek konvencije sta tvorila pestra parada po mestu Ely, ki je bilo vse v zastavah, in piknik na Sandy Pointu. Na pikniku nismo pogrešali ničesar, razen sence. Drugič naj bi prireditelji obesili več listja na ; breze in topole. Meni je bile ■ žal, da nisem prinesel marele £ i seboj. Saj, če se kitajski ii

POROČILO GLAVNEGA TAJNIKA
Glavnemu odboru JSKJ:
V posebni prilogi najdete poročilo o dohodkih in izdatkih obeh oddelkov JSKJ od 1. januarja do 30. junija 19^7. (Finančno poročilo glavnega tajnika je najti na drugem mestu te izdaje. Opomba urednika-zapisnikarja). Poročilo je bilo predloženo v pregled nadzornemu odseku, kakor določajo pravila, in upam, da so ga sobratje glavni nadzorniki našli v redu.
Čista imovina odraslega oddelka je z dnem 30. junija 1937 znašala $2,040,612.51,' dočim je 31. decembra 1936 znašala $1,998,145.62. čista imovina mladinskega oddelka je dne 30. junija 1937 znašala $142,818.53, dne 31. decembra 1986 pa $140,-970.74.	I
čista imovina obeh oddelkov znaša z dnem 30. junija 1937 $2,183,431.04.	ji
Da izkazujejo bolniški, športni in stroškovni s%td Izgubo, je vzrok ta, ker je okrog 90% asesmentov za mesec junij dospelo v glavno blagajno šele prve dni meseca julija. Ako bi bili junijski asesmenti sprejeti v juniju, bi vsi trije omenjeni skladi izkazovali napredek.
Neizplačane smrtnine so se znižale od $36,814.35 . na $24,973.56. .
Posojila na certifikate so se.zvišala samo za okrog $7,000.00, kar pomeni, da se je gmotni položaj članstva v splošnem precej
Z dnem 30. junija 1937 šteje Jednota 187 društev.
Dne 31. decembra 1936 je bilo v odraslem oddelku 13,505 članov, dne 30. junija 1937 pa 13,994. Napredek v odraslem oddelku 489 članov. Dne 31. decembra 1936 je mladinski oddelek štel 6,865 članov, z dnem 30. junija 1937 pa 9103. Napredek tekom prvih šest mesecev tega leta 2238 članov. Oba oddelka skupaj sta 31. decembra 1936 štela 20,361, dočim jih imamo z dnem 30. junija v obeh oddelkih 23,097. Napredek v obeh oddelkih tekom zadnjih šest mesecev 2736 članov in članic.
Kot razvidno iz naslednjega izkaza, šteje Jednota danes 2,081 članov več, kot kedaj prej.
število članstva od leta 1928 naprej je kot sledi:
1928—20,089,
1929—20,577,	<	J
1930—21,016,
1931—20,239,
1932—18,373,
1933—18,111,
1934—18,860,
1935—20,298,
1936—20,348,
Dne 30. junija 1937—23,097.
Na podaljšani zavarovalnini (extended insurance) smo z dnem 30. junija 1937 imeli 246 članov in članic.
Pasivnih članov nimamo nobenih.
Tekom zadnjih šest mesecev je v odraslem oddelku umrlo 84 članov in članic, v mladinskem oddelku pa 9.
Naj omenim, da smo tekom prve polovice tekočega leta imeli v glavnem uradu nenavadno veliko dela. Januarja, februarja in marca smo preurejevali sistem knjigovodstva, aprila, maja in junija smo bili pa obloženi z delom, ki ga je povzročila mladinska kampanje. Vzlic temu nisem najel nobene izredne pomoči, kar pomeni, da so morali moji stalni asistenti toliko bolj delati. Radi tega upam, da jim boste dali primerno priznanje.
O poteku in uspešnem zaključku mladinske kampanje sem poročal že v Novi Dobi, toda ponoviti moram, da sem bil z uspehom nad vse zadovoljen in se radi tega še enkrat prav lepo zahvalim vsem našim društvenim uradnikom in uradnicam ter vsem tistim, ki so bili tekom kampanje aktivni. Priznanje moram dati tudi uredništvu Nove Dobe in pa sobratu Janko N. Rogelju, prvemu glavnemu nadzorniku, za vzpodbudne in navduševalne članke, ki so jih priobčevali v Novi Dobi teden za tednom.
Na tej seji ne bomo imeli veliko stvari za rešiti, toda kar jih je, so jako važne. Prva važna stvar je takovzana starostna zavarovalnina, za katero nam je zadnja konvencija naročila, da predložimo članstvu primeren načrt, in druga, še bolj važna stvar je pa nova illinoiška postava, ki stopi v veljavo 1. januarja 1938 in ki se tiče plačevanja bolniških podpor in odškodnin. Ta novi zakon namreč zahteva, da moramo tudi v bolniškem in odškodninskem skladu graditi rezervo in da se mora v vsakem slu-
čaju določiti fiksno vsoto podpore in odškodnine, do katere je član za slučaj bolezni ali nezgode upravičen.
Nova mladinska pravila in lestvice asesmentov, ki so mi letos povzročile veliko dela, so bile odobrene od vseh zavarovalninskih oddelkov, in ta seja naj odloči, koliko iztisov teh pravil naj se da tiskati.
Dne 18. julija 1938 bo naša Jednota praznovala 40. obletnico njene ustanovitve, in da se ta važni dogodek na primeren način proslavi, bo treba že pri tej seji nekaj ukreniti.
K sklepu se vsem odbornikom, kakor tudi društvenim uradnikom in uradnicam najlepše zahvalim za prijazno naklonjenost in upam ter želim, da bi bil iste naklonjenosti deležen tudi v bodoče.
Z bratskim pozdravom,
Anton Zbašnik, glavni tajnik.
Poročilo glavnega tajnika se sprejme.

POROČILO GLAVNEGA BLAGAJNIKA
Glavnemu odboru JSKJ
Glavni tajnik je že poročal vse podrobnosti o finančnem stanju Jednote, tako za odrasli, kakor za mladinski oddelek, torej jih jaz ne bom navajal, ker bi to pomenilo le ponavljanje. S tajnikovim poročilom se docela'strinjam in upam, da so glavni nadzorniki našli vse v redu.
Iz poročila je razvidno, da so nekateri skladi nekoliko nazadovali, za kar psj, je vzrok to, ker smo prejeli samo pet mesečnih asesmentov, namesto šest, v prvi polovici tega leta. Po sedanjih pravilih imajo društva čas do 5. dne v prihodnjem mesecu dopo-slati asesmente za pretekli mesec, po starih pravilih pa je moral biti asesment poslan do zadnjega dne v mesecu.
Kar se tiče terjatev obresti od obveznic, katere so bile zadnja leta več ali manj zakasnele z obrestmi, morem poročati, da se je stvar precej izboljšala. Izterjali smo precejšnjo vsoto zaostalih obresti, pri nekaterih obveznicah pa je bilo treba stare zamenjati za nove, z nižjimi obrestmi, nakar so spet postale aktivne in redno plačujejo obresti.
To je približno vse, kar-imam za enkrat poročati. Nekatera priporočila bom predložil, ko pridejo odgovarjajoče zadeve na dnevni red. K sklepu upam, da bo to zborovanje v vsestransko korist članstva J. S. K. Jednote.

REPORT OF SUPREME MEDICAL EXAMINER
Supreme Bojted SSCU
Ely, Minn.
Sirs and brothers :-
I wish to present my semi-annual report at this time covering the period from January 1 to June 30, 1937. During this period all applications, claims, letters, etc., were taken care of promptly. The number of investigations was about normal. The brotherly spirit that has existed between this office and the local lodges as well as the Home Office was continued. There are occasions that will arise when the by-laws cause decisions to be made that may bring some ill feeling, however, at all times there is no question but what these decisions are made in the spirit of, and according to the dictates of, the by-laws as approved by the convention.
The number of applications for membership has increased during the past six months. We know that the most successful campaign just completed was the cause for this increase. All the members of our Union who were active in this campaign should be congratulated upon its success. I am of the opinion that special mention should be made of the work of our Supreme Secretary and the Editor of our NOVA DOBA as well as the efforts of the director of publicity “Little Stan.” Besides these individuals thanks should also be given to the other members of the Supreme Board who through their literary efforts made possible this high enrollment of new members.
The number of claims for sick benefits during the past six months was some one-hundred less than the number for the same period of last year. However, the number of claims for maternity, operation and indemnity benefits increased slightly when compared with the same period of 1936. There was an increase in the number of hernia operations especially during the past six months. This I think was due to an increase in the amount of work where industry demands that these things be repaired before a position is given. Considering this fund as a whole it should have held its own during the period of this report. It must also be remembered that the last convention approved an additional five dollars maternity benefits provided the child is enrolled in the Juvenile Department, also that in accidental injuries sick benefits are payable from the date of injury.
I wish to take this opportunity to thank all the local lodge officers as well as all the members of the supreme board fori their splendid cooperation with my office. The continuation of! this type of work between local lodges and members of the su-i preme board and members of the supreme judiciary committee | will insure a bigger and better South Slavonic Catholic Union, j
Respectfully and fraternally submitted,
Dr. F. J. Arch.
Report of supreme medical examiner accepted.

POROČILO UREDNIKA-UPRAVNIKA NOVE DOBE
Glavnemu odboru J. S. K. Jednote:
Prva polovica tekočega leta je bil« doba izredne aktivnosti pri naši Jednoti in, ker je uredništvo Nove Dobe publicijski de-partment organizacije, se je pae ta aktivnost izražala tudi tam z • izrednim delom. Mnogo tega dela je bilo vidnega vsem, toda mno-
■ go je bilo javnosti nevidnega podrobnega dela. V mislih imam 1 namreč našo mladinsko kampanjo, ki se je zaključila s takim si-
■ jajnim uspehom. Vse to izredno kampanjsko delo pa je bilo pri-
(Dalje na 2. strani)

ZAPISNIK POLLETNEGA ZBOROVANJA
GL. ODBORA
(Nadaljevanje s 1. strani)
jetno zaradi odkritega in navdušenega sodelovanja, ki ga je bilo uredništvo deležno od vseh strani. Glavni in porotni odbor, uredništvo, kampanjski direktor Little Stan in članstvo v splošnem— vsi smo delali v takem sporazumu, kot se menda še nikoli prej ni zgodilo v zgodovini naše Jednote. Vsi smo imeli pred očmi le en cilj: uspeh naše kampanje. In, ker je bila taka enodušnost in toliko dobre volje, je bil uspeh dosežen.
Glavni tajnik je bil pri preobilici drugega dela vedno zelo točen in uslužen s svojimi kampanjskimi poročili. Kampanjski direktor istotako. Glavni in porotni odborniki so prispevali vrsto agitacijskih člankov, nekateri skoro redno za vsako izdajo. Vse to je dalo vsebini lista tisto raznoličnost in živahnost, ki je potrebna'za živo kampanjo. Poleg tega so prihajali optimistični in navdušeni dopisi od društvenih uradnikov in drugih članov, celo 111 od članov mladinskega oddelka. Ni se šlo za napolnitev lista, to urednik vedno lahko stori brez zunanje pomoči, ampak šlo se je ^ za to, da je gradivo raznoliko in pestro, čim več glasov se sliši, J tem bolj živo je, in kampanja mora biti živa, sicer je dolgočasna ali ce.lo nekako omledna. In kar velja za slovenski del lista, velja tudi za .angleške strani, katere urejuje sobrat Louis M. Kolar.
Vsem, ki so tekom kampanje prispevali agitatorične članke ’ in dopise, naj bo na tem mestu od strani uredništva izražena najlepša zahvala. Plačilo pa jim bodi zavest, da s6 s svojim de- “ lom pomagali k rasti in ugledu Jednote.
Med uredništvom na eni strani in med dopisniki na drugi ^ strani v preteklem polletju ni bilo nikakih nesporazumov.! Od društvenih uradnikov in uradnic sem bil deležen bratskega so- ‘s
Q
delovanja in naklonjenosti.
Lista se tiska zdaj nekaj nad 12,000 iztisov tedensko. Oglasi ' se v splošnem točno plačujejo. Dolg na neplačanih oglasih je 30. junija 1937 znašal $220.13. Večji del te vsote pa je bil že plačan v juliju.	s
Kakor je glavnemu odboru in ostalemu članstvu znano, se r Nova Doba od 1. marca 1937 naprej tiska v drugi tiskarni, nam-; c reč v tiskarni Enakopravnosti v Clevelandu. Glavni odbor je na 1 letni seji v januarju 1937 oddal tiskanje litija omenjeni tiskarni. To je storil v smislu naših pravil, ki določajo, da se mora tiska- \ nje oddati tiskarni, ki predloži najnižje cene in drugače naj- J ugodnejše pogoje. Ker razdalja med prejšnjo in sedanjo tiskar- ( no ni velika, ni selitev povzročila niti prevelikih težkoč niti pre- j več stroškov. Kar se postrežbe.v novi tiskarni tiče, želim izjaviti, da je bila doslej v vseh ozirih dobra, poštena in točna. Uredniška ; soba je svetla, zračna in snažna ter v modernem poslopju. Z do- i voljenjem zadnje letne seje sem si za uredništvo nabavil nekaj ] potrebne nove opreme, ter sodim, da ima Nova Doba zdaj precej ( dostojen urad.
Pred zaključkom naj še omenim, da je delo urednika angles-kih strani v vseh ozirih zadovoljivo, in da sem bil deležen točnosti, pozornosti in bratskega upoštevanja od vseh glavnih in porotnih odbornikov., s katgriryi seny.rgfl kaj poslovanja, pismeno ali ,

POROČILO PREDSEDNIKA GLAVNEGA NADZORNEGA
ODBORA
Cenjenisouradniki:
Ko bodo priobčeni računi in stanje JSIvJ v uradnem glasilu Novi Dobi za prvo polovico tega leta, bo razvidno, koliko smo napredovali v posameznih skladih, in v kakšnem položaju se isti nahajajo.
Jednotini nadzorniki podamo vsak svoje poročilo o stanju računov in premoženja, članska dolžnost pa je, da natančno pregledajo imovino organizacije, da bodo poučeni, v kakšnem stanju se nahaja njih zavarovalnica.
Sporočam, da smo se zbrali vsi glavni nadzorniki, glavni predsednik in glavni blagajnik v ponedeljek 26. julija na The Northern National banki v Duluthu, Minn., kjer ima naša Jedno-ta shranjene vse vrednostne listine. Prešteli smo vse vrednostne papirje (bonde) in odrezali od njih vrednostne kupone za prihodnjih šest mesecev. Iste smo izročili glavnemu blagajniku, da jih vnovči, ko pride čas dozoritve.
Iz varnostnih predalov banke smo vzeli obveznice, katere bodo izplačane v prihodnjih šestih mesecih, kakor sledi: Grow Wing County, Minnesota, $500.00; Galveston, Texas, Grade Raising, $10,000.00; Mercedes, Texas, Independent School District, $5000.00; in Perry County, Kentucky, Road and Bridge. S10,000.00. Te bonde smo pustili pri upravi banke pod posebnim varstvom in proti pobotnici, da iste glavni blagajnik lahko dobi in izmenja za gotovino, ko dozore.
V torek 27. julija smo pričeli s pregledovanjem knjig v glavnem uradu. V tem tednu smo pregledali vse knjige glavnega tajnika, glavnega blagajnika in urednika-upravnika Nobe Dobe. Pregledali smo vse dohodke in izdatke, kateri so bili od 1. januarja pa do 1. julija, 1937. Pregledali smo posojila na članskih vrednostnih certifikatih, to so posojila, s katerimi člani plačujejo svoje asesmente. To pregledovanje je vzelo precej časa, ker je veliko takih posojil od $1.00 pa do $400.00, v skupni vsoti $147,-581.31. Več članov je že vrnilo enaka posojila, dočim je precej članov, ki se ne zmenijo niti za posojilo, niti za obresti. Takim članom se obresti pripisujejo h glavnici' vsakih šest mesecev. Bratje in sestre, za posojila na vaše certifikate bi, morali ravno tako skrbeti, kakor skrbite za posojila na vaše prve vknjižbe (mortgages).
Z veseljem Vam morem sporočiti, da so bile knjige in računi preje omenjenih uradnikov pregledani in najdeni v dobrem in lepem redu.
Ker so. ravno asesmenti od društev prihajali na glavnega blagajnika za časa naše navzočnosti v glavnem uradu, moram sporočiti, da je.še vedno nekaj društev, ki pošiljajo asesmente na ime glavnega blagajnika, kar pa ni pravilno. Zato opozarjam vsa tista društva, da naj asesmente pošiljajo na ime J. S. K. J. ali S. S. C. U., ne pa na ime glavnega uradnika.
Kot član finančnega odbora sem skušal vedno biti točen in sem vedno priporočal take bonde, ki so se mi zdeli najbolj varni za našo Jednoto.
Z jednotinim poždravom,
John Kumše, predsednik nadzornega odbora.
Poročilo predsednika nadzornega odbora se sprejme.
POROČILO PRVEGA GLAVNEGA NADZORNIKA
Spoštovani mi glavni odborniki:
Pridružujem se poročilu predsednika glavnega nadzornega odbora, da smo 26. julija, 1937 pregledali vse bonde na The Northern National banki v Duluthu in odrezali kupone, ki dozorijo v prihodnjih šestih mesecih. Dognali smo, da je premoženje naše Jednote, spravljeno bančnih varnostnih shrambah, v redu in soglasju s knjigami glavnega tajnika in blagajnika v uradu naše organizacije.
Dne 27. julija smo pričeli s pregledovanjem knjigovodstva glavnega tajnika, blagajnika in urednika-upravnika Nove Dobe.
Po pet-dnevnem pregledovanju smo pronašli knjige glavnega tajnika, blagajnika in upravnika Nove Dobe v soglasju z izdatki in dohodki naših društev in vseh drugih strank, s katerimi posluje naša organizacija. Opozarjal bi le ona društva, katera ne pošljejo na glavni urad svoja šest-mesečna poročila, ki takorekoč otežkočijo pregledovanje društvenega poslovanja z glavnim ura-i c< dom. Toda dostaviti moram, da je knjigovodstvo v vzornem, lič-1 nem in pohvalnem redu, kar dela čast in priznanje vodstvu glav- v nega urada, kakor tudr vestnim in lojalnim uslužbencem in usluž- sv benkam. Na podlagi tega priporočam glavnim odbornikom pred- sr ložene račune glavnega tajnika, blagajnika in urednika Nove Do- bi be v naznanje, odobritev in sprejem.	;vs
V zadnjih šestih mesecih sem imel dovolj korespondence z rt glavnim uradom, posameznimi člani glavnega odbora in nekaterimi društvi. Meseca aprila me je poslal glavni odbor v Pueblo, S( Colorado, kjer se je osnovala nova federacija. Naši društveni rr uradniki v Coloradu so me sprejeli z veseljem in spoštovanjem, b: Pomagal sem jim sestaviti federacijska pravila, seznanil sem jih ir z delovanjem drugih federacij, opisal sem jim smoter in delokrog naše organizacije, a končno sem apeliral s krepkim nagla- v som, da naj društva v Coloradu pokažejo članstvu naše organiza- v cije, kaj zmorejo napraviti za drugo mladinsko konvencijo. Danes imamo uspehe in dokaze, kako sijajno in lojalno so odgovorila društva v državi Colorado.
Koncem meseca maja sem se udeležil tudi seje pennsylvan-ske federacije. Tudi tam sem nagovarjal naše društvene zastop-! nike, da naj gredo na delo v pridobivanju novega članstva v mla-dinski oddelek. Kakor je država Colorado završila svoje delo, tako je tudi država Pennsylvania odgovorila v zadnji kampanji.
V mesecu juniju me je glavni odbor poslal v Lloydell, Pa.,
■ kjer je društvo praznovalo 35-letnico. žal mi je, da je jeklarski ^
• štrajk povzročil obsedno stanje, ter takorekoč prekrižal načrte1
• dobrih in zavednih članov, da niso mogli praznovati začrtane ob- ^
■ letnice v obsegu, kot so si zaželeli.	v	j
Za časa mladinske kampanje sem napisal vrsto člankov v p i Novi Dobi, s katerimi sem hotel in želel vzbuditi v našem članstvu ‘
- voljo in zanimanje do naše organizacije, člani so mi odgovarja-
i li pismeno, da naj še pišem, in da so šli na delo in agitacijo mla- (
I dinske kampanje. Rečem Vam, da to je bila kampanja, ki je oži- ^ vela v meni in našem članstvu z novo in poživljeno silo, kakršne ^
- ne kažejo druge skupine. Kampanja nam je rodila obilen sad in
- priznanje, da je v našem članstvu še dovolj vedrega in čilega du- ^
- ha za našo dobro in spoštovano organizacijo. Lahko trdimo, da je
i Jugoslovanska katoliška jednota najboljša bratska organizacija (
i v Ameriki. ...........
Kot član finančnega odbora sem priporočal nakup bondov, ki so bili po moji prevdarnosti najboljša investicija.
Končno se zahvaljujem glavnim odbornikom za njih sodelovanje, kakor tudi za naklonjenost društvenih uradnikov, s katerimi sem imel posla v zadnjih šestih mesecih. Drago mi je, da smo ; doživeli vseh živih dan, ljubo mi je, da smo tako sijajno uspeli v zadnji kampanji, in zadovoljen sem, da naša Jednota odpira no-u va in originalna pota, po katerih mi s svojo in lastno inicijativo ' ° iščemo in pridobivamo rast in napredek Jugoslovanske katoliške i jednote.
Z bratskim pozdravom,	'

REPORT OF THE SECOND SUPREME TRUSTEE
II To the Honorable Supreme Board of the SSCU:
In compliance with the provisions of the by-laws, the board >_ of trustees examined, checked and counted all the investment e holdings of our Union, which are kept in the safety deposit *’ vaults of the Northern National Bank in Duluth, Minn. The cou-a | pons for the interest which will mature during the next six months were removed.
The books and accounts of the supreme secretary, supreme treasurer and editor-manager of Nova Doba were examined, e audited and "compared with the vouchers. Everything was found correct and in good order.
B’	The results for the half-year were gratifying, with financial
™ gains shown in both adult and juvenile departments. The losses shown in some of the funds are occasioned by the change adopted at our last convention whereby remittances from our local lodges v are now sent to the Home Office after the first of every month, tl instead of prior to the last of every month. The income from e‘ lodges shown in the financial report, therefore, really is only for r“ five, instead of six months.
II	Most gratifying and outstanding, however, are the extra-!° ordinary gains in the enrollment of new members made during a Je short space of three months as a result of our juvenile conven-’" tion campaign. All previous records were broken and such keen : '1 interest was displayed that we have every reason to be proud ol m our live and growing organization. We trust that the 86 delegates ' ‘ who will attend our second national juvenile convention will con-10 tinue their good w.ork from now on. Our immediate problem will )e be to hold down lapsations of this new business.
It probably is needless to remark how pleased I am that m Lodge No. 66, of which I am a member, enrolled the highest
1.1 number of new members during the recent campaign and will have the most delegates in attendance at the forthcoming con-
,<l vention.	,
As a member of the finance committee, I continued to use my
1.1 best judgment in the selection of investments. In the present market this duty is not an easy one, on account of the fact that good securities with a yield as high as required by our mortality tables are none too plentiful.
All the other duties of my office and the matters referred to
III me by the Home Office I tried to dispose of promptly and efficiently : I had to make several trips to Chicago to attend meetings at which the problems confronting« our Union were discussed.
a. One of these was called by Major Donald C. Winder, former president of the Illinois Fraternal Congress, only lor represen-1
tatives of Slav societies. Another was in regard to Livingston Parish, La., bonds.
Having been named at the last meeting of the supreme board, I attended the mid-winter meeting of the sections of the National Fraternal Congress held at the Palmer House in Chicago, on February 22nd and 23rd. There I learned a number of worthwhile things which I will endeavor to use for the benefit of our Organization.
To all who have contributed toward the excellent showing LU made since January 1st, I wish to express sincere thanks and m hearty appreciation.
Fraternally yours,
Frank E. Vranichar, second supreme trustee. 1

REPORT OF FOURTH SUPREME TRUSTEE	1
To the Supreme Board, SSCU:
As the fourth supreme trustee of the South Slavonic Catholic s Union of America, I am hereby submitting my report with refer- < ence to the Union’s semi-annual business at close of June 30,1937. 1 As provided in the by-laws under section 182, the board of i trustees met in the Northern National Bank i» Duluth, Minn., 1 July 26th. Here we examined and checked all securities of the LTnion. Coupons were also clipped from the bond certificates for ( interest falling due at this time. And, incidentally I wish to : state that there was no difference in the bank records of our se-curities and the records disposed by our Union.
Then, as provided in our by-laws under section 179, we began ■ our general audit in the Home Office July 27. We examined the books and other records of the supreme secretary, supreme treasurer and the editor-manager of the Nova Doba. After carefully 1 comparing the books and records with the disposed reports we find them clear and correct in every respect.
After checking we find an increase in our Union’s assets in
I comparison to last .six months by better than 2.11%. This increase is noted in both the adult and the juvenile departments.
With pride I wish to comment that our Union is steadily prospering and is making sound progress.
As a member of the finance committee I tried to use my best judgment in the selection of bonds for the investment of the 5 Union’s surplus.
Concerning referendums and letters I received from the Home Office, I answered with careful consideration and made ' prompt replies.
In conclusion, I wish to thank all supreme officers for the good cooperation, and I’m hoping that the same spirit will continue. 1
Respectfully submitted,
Andrew Milavec Jr. j Report of fourth supreme trustee accepted.

REPORT OF ENGLISH EDITOR OF NOVA DOBA 3 To the officers of the supreme board, SSCU:
During the six months that have elapsed since I last sub-* mitted my report to you in the official capacity as associate edi-tor of Nova Doba and athletic commissioner, I have strived to x continue to serve the members of our Union and to extend every effort which might benefit the SSCU.
Routine correspondence relating to sports activities, and in connection with grants extended from the sports fund, has been c* conducted between the lodge officers, myself and the supreme board committee on athletics situated in Ely. Before recommend-ing financial assistance from the sports fund to any one lodge, lS it has been my practice to continue to investigate each request, d so that the purpose of the sports fund shall have served the lS Organization.
The English section of Nova Doba was literally turned over
II to the juvenile convention campaign during the three months ,r that elapsed between April 1st and June 30th. All other matter
for publication, unless urgent and necessary to be included be-l~ cause of time expiration, was set aside and utilized as space per-a | mitted.
Allow me to compliment the supreme board on its wisdom n in selecting Stan Pechaver, better known as Little Stan, as di-rector of the juvenile convention campaign. Not only were his 58 articles, appearing regularly in the English section of Nova Do-ba, inspiring to our English-speaking members, both adult and ii juvenile, but his individual letters to candidates and ultimately delegates encouraged many candidates to greater action.
As to recommendations for sport activities to be pursued by our lodges during the next six months, I shall take the matter H up with the supreme board committee on athletics at the time that each particular sport activity is in season. *

I tried to give every candidate |th tyy uFagement possible. I had special stationery printed pti §pe °tograph, along side of which was the caption, “Little fe letters ln^" — and we wer>t to town, so to speak. Copies of

John žebre, član društva št. 28, ki je na bolniški podpori, želi, da bi se mu dovolilo hoditi na ribolov, ki naj bi po zdravnikovem nasvetu predstavljal gibanje na prostem. Po pravilih se želji ne more ugoditi.
Apel društva št. 37 zaradi pošiljanja glavnih odbornikov k različnim aktivnostim društev in federacij se vzame na znanje.
V zadevi Pauline Barič, članice društva št. 39, je bil nastal nek nesporazum glede neke operacije in poznejše porodne podpore. Zadeva je že bila povoljno rešena, potem, ko se je vse pojasnilo. V zvezi s tem pa želi glavni odbor opozoriti člane, naj pazijo, da bodo nakaznice izpolnovali tisti zdravniki, ki so izvrševali zadevne operacije oziroma faktično imeli bolnike v oskrbi.
Marko Guštin, član društva št. 49, prosi za operacijsko podporo za sina, ki je bil bolan in operiran v času, ko je bil član mladinskega oddelka. Prošnji se ne more ugoditi, ker mladinski oddelek nima nikakega takega sklada.
Zaključek prve seje ob 12. uri opoldne.
Druga seja
Glavni predsednik je otvoril drugo sejo 2. avgusta ob 1.30 popoldne. Prisotni so bili vsi tisti glavni odborniki kot na prvi seji. Nadaljuje se z reševanjem zadev, predloženih po glavnemu tajniku:
V zadevi Antona Rojca, člana društva št. 71, se odobri postopanje glavnega tajnika.
Mary Vogrich, članici društva št. 124, se na podlagi dodatnih poročil odobri $25.00 izredne operacijske podpore, v smislu točke 307.
Mary Pichman, članica društva št. 170, je že leta 1935 dobila operacijsko odškodnino v smislu takrat izpolnjenih zdravniških listin. Za poznejšo operacijo se ne more plačati, ker bi bila označena operacija izključena, če bi bila prvotna operacija taka, kakor se je poročalo in za kakršno je bila odškodnina tudi izplačana. Omenjena članica ima seveda pravico, da apelira na glavni porotni odbor, če sodi, da se ji godi krivica.
Glede zadržane polovične podpore Mike Abrama, člana društva št. 175, se narodi glavnemu tajniku, da dobi nadaljne podatke.
'Glavni tajnik poroča, kako je nakazoval bolniško podporo članom, ki so se dali operirati za kilo, in želi izvedeti, če je postopal pravilno. Glavni odbor se je izrazil, da je gl. tajnik postopal pravilno v smislu pravil.
Angleško poslujoče društvo št. 221 se je obrnilo na glavni odbor s prošnjo za $50.00 podpore iz športnega sklada. Prošnji se ugodi.
Pismo Stanleya Progarja, tikajoče se oglaševanja organizacije, se vzame na znanje.
Prečitano je pismo coloradske federacije, ki vprašuje, da-li bi mogel glavni odbor nakazati kakšno odškodnino društvenim tajnikom, ki imajo mnogo posla z mladinskimi člani, za kar pa navadno niso nič plačani. Glavni odbor obžaluje, da je za enkrat nemogoče v tem oziru kaj storiti, posebno vpričo precej velikih izdatkov za letošnjo mladinsko konvencijo.
Pismo bratskega kongi’esa v državi Ohio se prečita in vzame na znanje.
Slovenski dom na Holmes Ave. v Clevelandu, O., želi izvedeti, da-li bo naša J>udnota obnovila oglas na zastoru'Doma, ki stane $25.00 za tri leta. Se sklene, da se oglas obnovi, in sicer se sestavi nov oglas.
Pismo Mrs. Frank Ulčar iz Gilberta, Minn., ki se nanaša na oglas v mesečniku Ave Maria, se vzame na znanje.
Pismo, tikajoče se oglasa v Ameriškem družinskem koledarju, se vzame na znanje.
Pismo Cankarjeve ustanove, tikajoče se oglasa v Cankarjevem glasniku, se vzame na znanje.
St. Clair Savings and Loan Co. v Clevelandu, O., se priporoča za vloge; pismo se vzame na znanje.
Glavni tajnik poroča, da duluthski list Duluth Herald večkrat poroča o naših aktivnostih v Minnesoti. Glavnemu tajniku se da navodilo, da omenjeni list naroči za uredništvo našega glasila.
Glavni tajnik in sobrat Milavec poročata o nameravani usta novitvi novega društva v Yeagertownu, Pa., sprejem katerega pa je izvrševalni odsek odklonil. Po obširnih pojasnilih je glavni odbor prišel do zaključka, da je izvrševalni odsek ravnal pravilno in v najboljšem interesu Jednote.
Seja zaključena ob 5.30 popoldne.
Tretja seja
Glavni predsednik otvori tretjo sejo dne 3. avgusta ob 9. uri dopoldne. Prisostvujejo vsi tisti glavni odborniki kot na prejš njih dveh sejah z izjemo sobrata Louisa Champe, ki je zaradi važnih opravkov začasno odsoten.
Zapisnikar prečita zapisnik prve seje in nato zapisnik druge seje; oba zapisnika sta brez ugovora sprejeta.
Glavni tajnik poroča, da je v zapisniku 15. redne konvencije izpuščeno, da je bila Barbara Matesha, prva pomočnica v glavnem uradu, izvoljena za namestnico gli pomožnemu tajniku. Vsi navzoči glavni odborniki se te izvolitve spominjajo in smatrajo za umestno, da se to zabeleži v zapisniku sedanjega zborovanja. V tem smislu stavljeni predlog je bil sprejet soglasno.
vanje temperature. Glavni odbor je o tej zadevi razpravljal, nakar je sklenil, da se za enkrat stvar odloži.
Nato se preide na razpravo o raznih podrobnostih v zvezi z bližajočo se mladinsko konvencijo. Provizorični program za konvencijo, ki je bil že priobčen v Novi Dobi, se potrdi, z dodatkom, da se za tri konvenčne dni dobi za sodelovanje tudi kampanjskega direktorja Stanleya Pechaverja. Mrs. Rose Svetich, glavna porotnica, je določena za nadzornico v hotelski jedilnici, kjer bodo mladinski delegati na hrani, Mrs. Mary Smrekar, ki je tudi naša članica in obenem mestna policijska matrona, bo pa nadzorovala mladinske delegate in delegatinje v hotelu, kjer bodo stanovali. Za sestavo resolucij, ki bodo predložene na mladinski konvenciji, sta določena sobrata Janko N. Rogelj in Frank E. Vranichar.
Razprava o raznih drugih podrobnostih, v zvezi z mladinsko konvencijo, se je nadaljevala vse do 12. ure opoldne, ko je glavni predsednik zaključil tretjo sejo.
SPOMINI Z DRUGE MLADINSKE KONVENCIJE
Ntdalitvanl« z 2. (trtni.
Na razpravo pridejo stenski koledarji, katere Jednota izda za leto 1938. Sklene se, da bo na koledarjih slika letošnje mladinske konvencije, da se jih naroči 11,000 in da glede cene in drugih podrobnosti odloča odsek treh glavnih odbornikov, kateri je bi v to svrho izvoljen že na letnem zborovanju.
Pri razpravi glede tiskanje mladinskih pravil je bilo priporočano, da bi se glavnemu tajniku, ki jih je sestavil, dala neka odškodnina, ker mu je sestava istih dala mnogo izrednega dela Ker pa je glavni tajnik odločno odklonil vsako nagrado, mu glavni odbor izrazi zahvalo in priznanje za to dobro izvršeno iz redno delo. Nova mladinska pravila bodo vsebovala tudi lestvice in neizgubljive vrednosti. Tiskanje se odda eni izmed obeh slo venskih unijskih tiskarn v Clevelandu, O., namreč tisti, ki bo sta vila najugodnejšo ponudbo. Naroči se jih 3000 istisov.
Kampanjskemu direktorju Stanleyu Pechaverju se nakaže $50.00 kot odškodnino za kampanjsko delo za čas od 15. junija do 15. julija. Določeno je tudi, da gre Stanley Pechaver dne 4. avgu sta v Duluth, kjer sprejme mladinske dtelegate in jim tekom vožnje na Ely razdeli potrebna navodila glede stanovanja.
Glavni tajnik poroča, da se je državni zavarovalninski department izrazil, da nima ugovora proti izboljšanju poslopja glavnega urada s tem, da se v istem instalira naprava za ureje-
Četrta seja
četrta seja je bila po glavnemu predsedniku otvorjena dne 3. avgusta ob 1.30 popoldne. Navzoči so bili vsi glavni odborniki, ki se v smislu pravil morajo udeleževati zborovanja.
Na razpravo pride novi zavarovalninski zakon države Illinois, ki stopi v veljavo 1. januarja 1938 in ki zahteva nabiranje rezerv tudi za bolniški sklad in druge sklade, poleg smrtninske-ga. Zahtevana rezerva v zakonu ni določena, označa se le, da mora biti primerna. O zadevi se je razvila več ur trajajoča debata in končno je bilo sklenjeno, da se pooblasti glavnega tajnika, da poišče vse potrebne podatke, pojasnila, navodila in sugestije, kako bi bilo naši organizaciji najlažje zadostiti zahtevam zakona. Te podatke zamore na pristojnih mestih poiskati osebno ali pismeno in se sme v to svrho poslužiti tudi legalne pomoči. Na podlagi tega naj sestavi načrt in ga predloži glavnemu odboru, da ga isti potrdi, ali pa predloži članstvu na splošno glasovanje, ako oo potrebno. Zadeva je velike važnosti z ozirom na nadaljno dovoljenje našega poslovanja v državi Illinois.
V zvezi z gori omenjeno zadevo se je razpravljalo tudi o ustanovitvi sklada za starostno podporo, o kateri se je govorilo že na zadnji redni konvenciji. Glavni odbor je nameraval že na sedanjem zborovanju sprejeti primerni načrt in ga predložiti članstvu na splošno glasovanje, toda je prišel do prepričanja, da je z ozirom na zahteve novega zakona države Illinois to za enkrat nemogoče oziroma brez pomena. Novi zakon države Illinois bo tudi za sklad starostne podpore, če se isti ustanovi, zahteval nabiranje primerne rezerve, in, ker za enkrat ni znano, kako višino rezerve bi illinoiški zavarovalninski department smatral za “primerno,” je nemogoče sestaviti lestvico ali višino prispevkov za tak sklad, šele, ko bomo imeli načrt, ki bo zadovoljil il-inoiški zakon glede zbiranja rezerv za sklad bolniških podpor in za druge sklade, bo mogoče izračunati visokost prispevkov, ki sodo potrebni za sklad starostnih podpor, če se isti ustanovi, šele takrat bo glavni odbor zamogel dati članstvu na splošno glasovanje načrt za sklad starostnih podpor.
Glavni odbor je glede obeh gori omenjenih zadev več ur in vsestransko razpravljal in ni mogel priti do drugačnih zaključkov kot so gori navedeni.
Na razpravo pridejo razne pritožbe proti tajniku društva
št. 40, češ, da isti police mladinskih članov že nad leto dni zadržuje ter da je netočen in površen pri raznih drugih društvenih poslih. Glavni odbor izrazi obžalovanje nad poročanimi nered-nostmi, smatra pa, da spada v delokrog prizadetega društva samega, da napravi v društvenem poslovanju red, ako ga ni oziroma ako ga primanjkuje.
Glavni predsednik priporoča nato, da bi se zavzeli za ustanavljanje mladinskih krožkov pri naših krajevnih društvih, kar naj bi seznanjalo.naše mladinske člane z njihovo organizacijo. V zadevni debati se poudarja, da je glavni odbor to idejo že pred časom odobril in priporočil, odziv pa je bil le pri nekaterih društvih. Glavni odbor se tudi sedaj strinja z idejo in jo priporoča, ker more organizadiji le koristiti. Koliko uspeha bo priporočilo imelo, bo pa seveda odvisno od dobre volje p'osameznih društev in od krajevnih razmer.
Zaključek seje ob 5.30 zvečer.
Peta seja
Peta seja je bila po glavnem predsedniku otvorjena dne 4. avgusta ob 9. uri dopoldne. Prisostvovali so vsi tisti glavni odborniki kot na prejšnjih štirih sejah.
Zapisnikar prečita zapisnik tretje seje in nato zapisnik četrte seje; oba sta bila sprejeta.
Glavni odborniki so se osebno prepričali, da je treba zidovje jednotinega uradnega poslopja s pomočjo posebnega materiala nekoliko bolje zavarovati proti silam vremena, ki so tu na severu posebno izrazite. Po računu strokovnjaka bi dotična poprava oziroma izboljšava stala okrog $137.00. Sklenjeno je bilo soglasno, da se dotično delo izvrši.
Glavni tajnik nato poroča, da bo treba prideliti posebne svetovalce različnim odborom 2. mladinske konvencije. Vsi odborniki s tem soglašajo, torej so bili za svetovalce raznim kon-venčnim odborom in uradom imenovani sledeči:
tanka s sestričino Mrs. Jerom od istotam. Po 32 letih je bilo naše svidenje res prijetno in veselo.
Pot proti domu je bila spet dolga, ker smo morali po več ur po raznih postajah čakati na vlake. Končno smo le vsi srečni in zdravi prišli na Union postajo v Denver. Tam so nas že čakali naši prijatelji z avtomobili, da nas popeljejo na naše domove. Zvečer so pa v Slovenskem društvenem domu v po-čast mladinski delegaciji napravili “surprise party.” Na prireditev so bili povabljeni tudi delegati in delegatinje iz drugih mest Colorada in tudi nekatere matere, ki so delegacijo spremljale, le žal, da se iz gotovih vzrokov niso mogli povabilu odzvati. Kar se postrežbe tiče je bila v vseh ozirih stoprocentna, za nameček pa je še hčerka našega podpredsednika Johna Zupančiča in članica mladinskega oddelka na svojo harmoniko zaigrala vrsto lepih valčkov in poskočnic.
V svojem imenu in v imenu delegacije se tem potom najlepše zahvalim vsem, ki so se trudili in žrtvovali, da so nam priredili tako lep sprejem, ki ga ne bom nikdar pozabil. Proti koncu te prijetni zabave, je pa naš agilni društveni delavec Steve Mausar poklical vsakega posameznega delegata in dele-gatinjo, da pove svoje mnenje o mladinski konvenciji. Pa so se izražali posamezniki, da kaj takega še niso videli kot ob priliki mladinske konvencije, da je ne bodo nikoli pozabili in da bi želeli prisostvovati tudi prihodnji. Neka ter pa so izrazili obžalovanje, da za prihodnjo mladinsko konvencijo ne bodo več mogli kandidirati za delegat-stvo, ker bodo takrat že člani odraslega oddelka. Vsa prireditev je bila prijetna in nekak dostojen zaključek mladinske kampanje in mladinske konvencije.
K zaključku naj mi bo dovoljeno še enkrat izreči iskreno zahvalo vsem, ki so mi pomagali in šli na roke tekom mladinske kampanje, vsem, ki so mi pomagali ob priliki odhoda in prihoda delegacije, in vsem, tukaj in v Minnesoti, ki so nam izkazovali najrazličnejše naklonjenosti. Poleg zahvale nam bo vsem prizadetim v plačilo tudi zavest, da so prispevali svoj del za rast in ugled J. S. K. Jednote.

Glavni predsednik je nato uradno zaključil peto sejo in obenem polletno zborovanje z zahvalo za pozornost ter točno in iskreno sodelovanje vseh odbornikov in jim je obenem priporočil, da tudi tako točno in iskreno sodelujejo na svojih določenih mestih tekom mladinske konvencije. Pozval je tudi odbornike, da pridejo v urad ob 2. uri popoldne, da bo mogel biti prečitan in sprejet zapisnik pete seje. To se je zgodilo; zapisnik je bil prečitan in sprejet.

DOPISI
Imperial, Pa. — Tukajšno društvo sv. Jožefa, št. 29 JSKJ, bo letos proslavilo 35-letnico svoje ustanovitve. V ta namen je bilo na seji meseca junija sklenjeno, da društvo priredi plesno veselico v soboto 16. oktobra. Naše društvo ni priredilo nobene veselice že zadnjih pet let, zato je upati, da se bo članstvo in drugo občinstvo veselice 16. oktobra v obilem številu udeležilo. Vsi člani in članice našega društva bodo za to veselico plačali vstopnino, brez ozira na to, če se veselice udeležijo ali ne; ta vstopnina se bo plačala meseca novembra obenem z društvenim asesmentom. čisti dobiček prireditve je namenjen dru- • štveni blagajni, ki potrebuje denarja, kajti društvo ima po navadi vsako leto več izdatkov kot dohodkov.
Društvo prijazno vabi člane in članice vseh ostalih društev v tej okolici, da nas v obilem šte-cilu posetijo; seveda so na veselico prijazno vabljeni tudi vsi drugi rojaki in rojakinje tega okrožja. Vstopnina bo primeroma nizka: po 35 centov za moške in po 25 centov za ženske. Za izborno godbo bo skrbel “Martin Serro” orkester, ki igra vsaki ponedeljek in vsako sredo ob Dalje n« 7. atr.

ji-
*
Piknik na Sandy Pointu je bil sijajno obiskan, nele od slavne delegacije, ampak tudi od slavnega občinstva iz Elya in iz drugih mest železnega o-krožja Minnesote. Posebno častno je bil zastopan Chisholm, častno v vseh ozirih, in mi je žal, da se ne morem spuščati v podrobnosti. Tudi okoliški komarji so se polnoštevilno odzvali. Ko sem se napram nekemu rojaku pritožil, da elyški komarji (oziroma komarice) nimajo nikakih manir, ker se po pasje zaganjajo pod noge, od koder jih ne morem preganjati z dimom cigare, mi je svetoval, naj si nabavim dolgo indijansko pipo, da se bo kadilo tudi pri nogah. Ideja ni slaba, zato bohlonaj zanjo! Neka rojakinja je menila, da kdor stoji na “vražjih nogah,” ga ne pikajo komarji. Pa sem pozabil vprašati, kakšne so vražje noge. Morda so tiste, ki so okrašene s kurjimi očesi v pasjih dneh.
♦
Minnesota* nam je tekom letošnjih pasjih dni pokazala, da premore vseh vrst vreme. Ko smo izstopili iz vlaka v Dulu-thu, nas je skoraj zeblo. Po dveh prilično hladnih dneh pa je nastopila vročina, ki ne bi delala sramote Indiani. Samo severnega sija ni bilo nič na iz-pregled. Ali pa je morda bil in ga mi le videli nismo. Pozne večerne ure smo namreč najrajši preganjali v pritličnih zavetiščih, kjer je tekla voda življenja, doma iz milwauških in drugih vrelcev, in kamor nam niso mogli slediti komarji, vročina in severni sij.
•
Vljudnost je zelo lepa lastnost, ki'pa nfe reši ’vseh nepri-
lik sveta; včasih jih še bolj zamota. Saj vemo, kako vljudno si mednarodni diplomati medsebojno lažejo o prijateljstvu, pri tem pa se z največjo ihto pripravljajo na novo vojno; vemo tudi, kako pretirano, vljudni so Japonci, kar pa jim ne brani, da ne bi prav grdo mrcvarili Kitajcev. Pa tudi med pravimi prijatelji je včasih iz zdravstvenih in človekoljubnih ozirov priporočljiva gotova mera nevljudnosti. Ko sem v zgodnjem jutru 10. avgusta izstopil iz vlaka na milwauški postaji sem se od glavnih odbornikov in prijateljev poslovil samo v duhu, to se pravi, da sem jih pustil spati in sem molče odtro bental v zaspano jutro. Nimam namreč na svetu takega sovražnika, da bi ga zbudil ob peti uri zjutraj samo zato, da bi mu rekel: good bye!

Vtisi z mladinske konvencije
Potek druge mladinske konvencije JSKJ bo v podrobnostih opisan v angleškem delu Nove Dobe. Na tem mestu naj omenim le nekatere vtise, ki so se mi zdeli posebno zanimivi in značilni.
Mladinsko delegacijo so ob prihodu na Ely na kolodvoru sprejeli glavni odborniki, belo oblečena elyska šolska godba in mnogo drugega občinstva. Pogled na povorko, ki se je vršila od kolodvora do hotela, kjer je bilo za delegate pripravljeno stanovanje, je bil prav majniško krasen. Godba je igrala vesele koračnice, zastave so se vile kakor v sladkem začudenju in sonce je sijalo tako veselo, kakor da se samo raduje tega pestrega cvetja mladine, ki se je vsulo na naš zeleni sever iz skoro vseh delov Zedinjenih dr žav. Kdor je videl ta prizor, ga ne bo nikdar pozabil.
Delegati in delegatinje letoš-
nje mladinske konvencije so bili po večini že prilično odrasli. Kljub mladostni živahnosti in razigranosti so se v splošnem obnašali vzorno, da smo bili odkritosrčno ponosni nanje. To mi je osebno priznal sam mestni župan Mr. Peshel in me je prosil, da naj sporočim javnosti. V istem smislu se je izražalo tudi hotelsko osobje in drugo občinstvo, ki je prišlo v stike z delegacijo. Po vsem, kar sem videl ^in slišal, morem reči le, da je bila naša delegacija lepa, vesela in inteligentna skupina.
Obe konvenčni seji sta se za-vršili v vzornem redu in ob inteligentni pozornosti. Izmed delegacije zbrani konvenčni uradniki in uradnice so se hitro in razumno vživeli v svoje vloge. Kampanjski direktor L i ttle Stan je imel toliko iskrenih prijateljev, kolikor je bilo delegatov in delegatinj. Posebna kon-venčna godba, katero so tvorili štirje delegati iz Clevelanda (dva od društva št. 37 in dva od št. 173) je vzbujala mnogo pozornosti, veselja in priznanja.
Po hudi nočni plohi je nad okrašenim mestom Elyem ter nad okoliškimi jezeri.in gozdovi zatrepetala kristalna nedelja, kakor nalašč sveže umita, da prisostvuje veliki paradi, ki se je vila od jednotinega urada preko mesta do postaje. (Od tam so se udeleženci s šolskimi busi in privatnimi avtomobili odpeljali na piknik.) Elyška šolska godba, za njo glavni odborniki, nato delegati in delegatinje, za njimi elyški člani mladinskega oddelka, za zaključek pa bobnarji in trobentači elyške postaje Ameriške legije, izvrstno. trenirani in v izredno pestrih uniformah. Zdelo se je, da je naša mladina osvojila vse mesto, srca vseh meščanov in posetnikov. Dvornim, da je mesto Ely že videlo kaj lepšega. Kdo bi se mogel ustavljati takim zavojevalcem; ki prihajajo v imenu bratstva in osvajajo s
svojo mladostno živa^n' poto in inteligenco!
Da so videli vse to dinskih delegatov, p radniki in drugi agtfnl J ■ so s svojim delom	jfe
mladinsko konvencij0' ^ t|]^ soglasno vzkliknili: ^ J ^Ifjy delali, mnogo smo ^ da izplačalo se je 111 y tyg se bo tisočkratno! ""

IlHni Stars to Hold Picnic Sept. 5th
Delegate to Make Report at Meeting
Chicago, 111. — Juvenile convention is now over with and I hope that the delegation return- pj ed home well satisfied. We ex- p( pect reports from the delegates, and after a sufficient rest we anticipate a resumption of their activity towards securing neW ja members into the juvenile de- A partment.	a
Delegate Jennie Simenc, who represented Illini Stars lodge, jr I No. 211, SSCU promised to at- E tend the next meeting which will be held Sunday, August 22d, where she will give us a report q of the convention. She also p stated that she will have some t, new members for this meeting, g (Good work, Jennie!) I hope r that the membership will at- j tend in full numbers.	j
It is imperative that all our ^ members attend the next meet- s ing since discussions for our I next dance will be in order. This c dance will take place Sunday, Sept. 5, in Kobals’ Grove on 55th and Clarendon Hills.

Parents are invited to i bring along their children so < that all can participate in the ! entertainment. Admission for :
■ adults will be only 25 cents.
More details on the dance will be j disclosed at the August 22nd , meeting.

)	Delegate Reports
.	Chicago, 111. — It is with
H pleasure that I report my re-; turn from the second juvenile g convention which was held in 3 the beautiful town of Ely, Minn.
. Although I looked forward to the convention, I never expected it to turn out as splendid as it did. I experienced but little fear. And when I met the delegates at the station, all worries and cares left me. When we arrived in Ely we were greeted with a band. Accommodations were excellent. Recognition for the splendid arrangements must be given to the supreme board and all those who worked to make the convention such a worthwhile affair.
:	When the day for departure
‘ arrived, we were sadly saying goodbye. Our only ray of hope > was that in two years hence we ‘ would have the opportunity to 5 see each other again at the third - convention. When I arrived f home I received the good news that our lodge Illini Stars, No.
' 211, SSCU will hold a picnic Sunday, Sept. 5, in the vicinity of Clarendon Hills, that is at Kobal’s place. To this picnic are invited neighboring brothers and sisters, and supreme officers residing in the neighboring community. Members of the ju-venile.department will be served free refreshments, light lunch and ice cream.
In conclusion I wisji to extend my best regards to all supreme officers, all delegates to the second juvenile convention, and all those who in any way contributed towards the success of the campaign and the convention. After we rest a bit, we can go back to work and secure additional new members in our juvenile department.

Minutes of the supreme board regular semi-annual meeting are carried in this issue of Nova Doba. Of interest to the English-speaking members is the supreme secretary’s financial report and several other submitted by members of the supreme board, which are published in the English language. The regular mid-year session commenced August 2 and was concluded August 4. English translation of the minutes proper will appear in a subsequent issue of Nova Doba.
Describes Cyclonic Storm in Montana
“The Father of the Juvenile Convention” is the title given Anton Zbasnik, supreme secretary, by delegates to the second SSCU juvenile convention, in a resolution adopted during the junior sessions held in Ely, Minn. Stanley Pechaver, better known as Little Stan, again was selected head of the national publicity committee consisting of all delegates.
Ovet; 3,000 people attended the
mammoth picnic arranged for the juvenile delegates at Sandy Point. The picnic, held on August 8, climaxed the entertainment prepared for the 86 juvenile delegates attending the second juvenile convention in Ely, Minn. Each delegate spoke over an amplifying system installed on the picnic grounds.. Supreme secretary 'Anton Zbasnik presided.
East Helena, Mont. — Here I am home again and writing. First I want to thank you for the one dollar check which came while I was attending the second juvenile convention in Ely.
There was a tornadic windstorm (the U. S. weather bureau said it was more of a “cyclonic” nature) here the time I attended the convention. The storm occurred August 5, the day we delegates arrived in Ely.
Damage estimated around $4,-000 was done at the East Helena plant of the American Smelting and Refining Co. Nearly 100 feet of corrugated iron roofing and planking was torn|from the smelter ore unloading plant, the newest structure there. Planks 12 feet long and 10 inches wide by 2 inches thick were hurled through the air like straws, and then dashed to the ground breaking into bits. One was blown nearly 250 feet before smashing into the top of another building, making a hole in the roof nearly a foot in diameter. Long sheets of iron roofing were whirled about like pieces of paper, some being wrapped around service poles while others, with small pieces, of wood were strewn over a large area.
MINUTES OF THE SECOND JUVENILE CONVENTION. AND LITTLE STAN’S REPORT WILL APPEAR IN NEXT WEEK’S EDITION
Complete report of the minutes recorded of the second juvenile convention held in Ely, Minn., August 6 and 7, will be published in next week’s edition of Nova Doba. Also to appear in the same issue will be a detailed report of the convention activities as seen through the eyes of Little Stan, who again was appointed by the delegates as chairman of the national publicity committee.
All other contributing articles by juvenile m.embers will be included in next week’s iss5e.

“What’s happened, George?” she asked her husband, who had got out of the car to investigate.
“Puncture,” he said briefly.
“You ought to have been on the lookout for this;” was the helpful remark. “You remember the guide warned you there 1 was a fork in the road.”
For the third year in succession the Slovene-American Golf Club of Cleveland, O., sponsored its annual tournament at Willo-wick, O., last Sunday, August 15.
Twenty-two participated, the largest number to take part since the club’s beginning. A.1 Zagar and Herman Stupica ended in a tie with 82 each, followed closely by Ed. Marolt and Mike Morel with 83 each. Incidentally, A1 Zagar and Herman Stupica will play another round to determine the champion.
Paul Hribar was next with 85, followed by Tony Zagar with 87. The annual tournaments have been made possible only through the active and spirited leadership of John Bradač, U. S. postal carrier out Collinwood way, who also was a caddy at one time. He lives at 1192 E. 176th St.

This wasn’t all the damage done either. Damage done to the Montana Power Co. power lines was approximately $2,000. The tearing down of seven poles of the power line interrupted electrical service to Helena and East Helena. Horse and buggy days were recalled as the power failed. In the homes refrigerators defrosted and gave the housewives many anxious moments. Families who cooked on electric ranges made plans for restaurant appointments for dinner.
Store clerks were forced to rely on memory and sense of touch as they groped in darkened rooms while waiting on customers and filling orders for goods. Bar.ber shops saw a return to old-fashioned hand clippers and such work was maintained only at a much slower rate.
Beer parlors suffered as pressure pumps failed and bartenders were unable to meet heavy demands for draught beer. Loss of refrigeration power made the “suds” wai'mer and less refreshing. Many other unexpected things happened but I haven’t time to relate them now. Our city clerk said this wind and dust storm was “the worst in the history of the city.”
Now back to the convention. First I want to thank Mr. Okoren for his excellent care of me and the other delegates he had charge of. I really enjoyed the ride through Tower and the boat ride on the lake to the Indian Reservation best. The people of Ely couldn’t have given us a more hearty welcome. No matter where we went, we were always welcomed. I had a good time at the picnic and enjoyed speaking through the mike .
The convention sessions were interesting but I’m afraid I wasn’t so good at being one of the recording secretaries, since I never had any such experience before.
Before I forget, I want to take this opportunity to thank the Boy Scout Troop No. 174 of Ely, for the wonderful Minstrel i Show. I sure enjoyed it and ! wish we had one out here once
Cleveland, O. — Throughout Greater Cleveland fathers whose sons and daughters will enter school for the first time in the fall are being reminded of preliminary responsibilities.
In 10,000 offices, factories, stores and other places of business, the Cleveland Health Council, cooperating with Health Commissioner Harold J. Knapp, is asking fathers to see that children are healthy, and as free as possible from physical defects, by the time schools open in September.
The message addressed to fathers is printed on a red, white and blue poster, and signed by Dr. Knapp. The Health Council, a Community Fund agency, provides a means whereby all local public and private health services may work together on the same health problems.
The posters read as follows: “TO FATHERS: School is your children’s business. To get the most out of their education they must be healthy.
This summer see that they have nourishing food and safe play. Have the following done for the little ones starting school in September:
“Vaccination against smallpox. Immunization against diphtheria. Complete physical check-up, including examination of teeth,tonsils, eyes, adenoids and ears.
“SEE YOUR DOCTOR AND DENTIST.
(“Signed) Harold J. Knapp, Commissioner of Health, Cleveland” Howard Whipple Green, secretary of the Cleveland Health Council, emphasizing the importance of the message, said: “It is often true that both the mental and physical development of children in school is retarded and even endangered by neglect of some health defect that a physical examination will disclose. We want to keep such hazards as low as possible in Greater Cleveland.”
FOUNTAIN PEN LOST

Center, Pa. — The second na-tienal juvenile convention of the South Slavonic Catholic Union is now ended. Eighty-six juvenile members are now wishing that they were still in Ely, and that the convention had just started. Other juvenile members who were not delegates are wishing that they, too, could have attended the convention as they listen to the delegates tell them of the happy hours they spent in Ely.
When I say the trip to Ely wa3 a little monotonous, I believe most of the Pennsylvania delegation will agree. I believe almost anyone would be tired after thirty hours of sitting. But as soon as we reached Ely, we forgot about being tired. At the station stood a large crowd of people waiting to greet us. We marched to the hotel with the Ely Drum and Bugle Corpš leading us.	j
In the four days that follow-. ed,"'we delegates and the Sui prertie Board members became better acquainted with each other. While there, I spent mostj of my time with Victoria Kum-se, Dorothy Gruden, and Amelia Korošec. These three girls; were delegates to the first juvenile convention also, and theyj were largely responsible for the wonderful time I had at Ely. ^
The convention sessions thalj were held were very interesting, Although the method of select*, ting convention officers was dif-. ferent from the method used atj the last convention, I believe itj was satisfactory. The metho4 used this time saved much time,; and I believe practically the same ones would have been chosen by us, had we chosen the officers ourselves.	^
Our visit to the Indian Reservation was enjoyed by all. Thafj was the first time that I saw a! real Indian. There were others* too ,who saw them for the firsfl time.	j

Baby’s First Year I The New Members
By Dr. John J. Folin, Member No. kh> SSCU
Barberton, 0. — What about the young babies’ care until they are a year old? What should they be fed, and when? What should we do about constipation? Should we help them learn to sit up and walk?
The first thing to understand about feeding is that every mother should nurse her baby, and that 90 per cent can, whether they believe it or not.
: Many prospective mothers say they were unable to nurse their other children but want to nurse this one. It is easy. Don’t pay aily attention to what you hear, but simply make up your mind that you are going to nurse this one and go ahead and do it.
For the first two days after the baby arrives there is either little or no secretion in the breasts, so there is no use of letting the baby nurse more than 3 or 4 times in 24 hours. Cleanse the nippies with boric acid solution after each nursing. After the first day, give a few teaspoonfuls of sweetened water —between feeding one-half teaspoonful sugar to 3 ounces of boiled water.
After the second day, when the milk begins to “come in,” put the baby to the breasts every 2 to or 4 hours at the same times, but not to exceed 6 or 7 times on 24 hours. If the milk is abundant:, every 4 hours is usually enough. After the first 2 months tfte night feeding can usually be dropped out and the baby will sleep through until 6 o’clock. Feeding hours could then be.'. 6:00 a. m., 10:00 a. m., 2:00 p. m., 6:00 p. m., 10:00 p. m.
Giving the baby water from a bottle with a nipple is a frequent cause of not taking the breast. Give water or other food with a spoon, as it frequently happens that when a baby has had an artificial nipple which draws easily, he will refuse the breast.
The difficulty in breast feed ing comes usually from two causes: either the baby gets too much or too little. A baby gaining six ounces per week is get ting enough milk, if gaining a pound it is getting too much, and if three ounces it is not getting enough.
If, after a few weeks, it is found the baby is not gaining properly, even after given both breasts each time, it will be necessary to give him some extra food. For this purpose pasteurized and diluted cow’s milk, or condensed or evaporated milk, is simplest and most easily available. There are numerous powdered milks on the market that will answer this purpose but with little extra expense.
Every mother seems to be worried about the infant’s stools. Remember breast fed babies, even with hard stools are not constipated and even if there is not a daily bowel movement, no harm will be done as they will move just as soon as a sufficient residue accumulates to produce the necessary reaction. No baby that is breast fed should have castor oil or any other physic, except when ill and then only sparingly.
Babies fed on cow’s milk are usually constipated from the beginning and this is frequently avoided by the mere addition of gruel, or more sugar, such as molasses, or some fruit pulp, such as prunes put through a sieve. In many cases by removing some of the cream and adding some gruel, say one-third will overcome the difficulty. The stools should be mushy in character but never hard and dry.
A little extra food may be given a breast fed baby that is gaining well along about the fifth month. Oatmeal, wheat,
East Palestine, O. — As a result of the recent juvenile campaign, a large number of new members was added to the rolls of the SSCU. The great majority of these are composed of boys and girls. How many of these will be permanent fixtures, in the organization? We are certain of a vast majority.
It is the duty of every individual unit to see that these ooys and girls do not lose interest in the organization. Each unit should ever be alert to halt any wave of indifference that might occur, before it shall reach serious proportions. Organizations that remain healthy never allow for stagnation.

His Figures Were Correct— Answer Was Wrong
A few centuries ago there lived a Chinese wise man named Sen Chu. He was a great mathematician and believed that all the secrets of life were mysteriously aligned with numbers. He delved in higher mathematics until at length he believed he could fortell future events. He compiled sheets of statistics which proved to him that China would never be invaded. His figures were correct, but his answer was wrong, because he was strangled by an invading Tartar -who could not add.
Sometime, like Sen Chu, a husband or father looks into the future and pictures his hopes, dreams, and ambitions as realities. He has plans which cannot fail, a system for success which is bound to win. The modern wise man realizes that there is an invading Tartar called Death, who can neither read nor add, and who can destroy his future in a moment and with it his hopes and dreams of a bright tomorrow. Adequate Life Insurance is man’s only defense against this invader—Life Insurance alone guarantees that “the Tartar who cannot add” will not destroy our hopes and ambitions for the security of our loved ones..

Colorado Delegate Reports On Trip
Denver, Colo. — Was it a dream? No, it was true. I was in Ely as a delegate from Denver. Well, to get to the facts, I want to say although reaching my goal would have been impossible without the aid of my parents and Bro. Frank Okoren, all the efforts were well repaid.
We left on Tuesday via the Burlington Route. As we passed many small towns we soon became weary and fell asleep, but the next morning'we found ourselves in Omaha, Nebraska There we picked up two Wyoming delegates. Then changing trains and starting again we saw only fields upon fields of corn. Passing through Iowa, Wednesday, we reached St. Paul that evening. Changing trains again we left St. Paul at 12:00 p. m. after about five hours of waiting.
Some Things I Don’t Want My Widow to do
rice, barley, cooked for one hour and thinned out to a consistency of gruel, may be started at first with teaspoonful doses after one or two nursings—the 10:00 a. m. and 6:00 p. m. feedings are perhaps the best. This amount should be gradually increased so that at six months the baby is getting a couple of tablespoonfuls of thick cooked cereal, thinned with milk and a sprinkle of sugar, after these two feedings.
Rarely does a mother have sufficient breast milk to supply the baby’s needs after the fifth month. By the end of the first year a breast fed baby should be well established on a mixed diet and weaned.
Many mothers ask when should a baby be able to sit up, or be propped up, and when should it be encouraged to stand on its feet? Baby should not be encouraged to be propped up, or supported on its feet. A baby will start all these things himself and usually it raises its head first, then it begins to turn over, sit up, and finally when about a year old pulls himself up on his feet and walks around by holding on to chairs or the wall. Setting up or propping up a young baby without support for any length of time is a mistake. If well supported he may sit up, when some months old, for a brief time, but if the infant is well nourished and otherwise normal he will be able to do all of these things himself when able.
On Thursday morning we arrived in Duluth, and without a bit of guessing I recognized Little Stan. Soon we boarded the train for Ely, our goal. On this train we were joined with the rest of the delegates, among which was the orchestra consisting of the Cleveland boys who played until we reached our destination. At the station we were greeted by the Junior Ely band and others from Ely, and escorted to Forest Hotel. We had our pictures taken in front of the Home Office.
Next morning I got up at about 7 a. m. and by 9 the convention was under way. Anthony Prime, Jr. was elected convention chairman. After the sessions we were escorted into buses and headed for Lake Vermillion. Here we saw the Indians dressed in gay colors. Matt Anzelc took part in the Indian jamboree. That evening we attended a Minstrel Show presented for our special benefit at the Washington school auditorium.
On Saturday, after convention adjourned, the delegates were given a choice of a bus ride, or to do whatever they wished, such as shopping or going to a movie. After supper we enjoyed ourselves at a party held in the lobby of the hotel.
Came Sunday morning. I took some snapshots, and at 1:00 p. m. we found ourselves at Sandy Point, where a huge picnic was arranged for us.
Monday morning I started to pack, but with a sigh of regret and sadness, for we were to de-p'art at 2 p. m. From Ely to Duluth the delegates traveled in one group, but in Duluth we separated, each to his own route. I hope I can see the delegates again two years hence at the third juvenile convention.
On our return trip to Denver, we sang “Moje dekle je še mlado,” and so popular did the song become that even Bro. Okoren joined in the chorus. We arrived in Denver, Wednesday morning at 11:45 a. m. That evening a group of members from lodge No. 21, SSCU, under the leadership of Mr. Mauser, our lodge president, gave a surprise party on the Colorado delegates. We sure did have plenty of fun, singing to the peppy music of one of our juvenile members. I want to thank all those responsible for the pleasant surprise party.
I want to thank the supreme board for the enjoyable time accorded us. Also Bro. Okoren for his fine guardianship. But lest I forget, I must also thank the hotel management for the splendid accommodations and welcome given us. Also, thanks to the people of Ely for their hospitality. Although I didn’t have a ride in Little Stan’s “Ahs-Tin,” I certainly took a picture of it. Well, I’ll be seeing you all
To worry over where the money is coming from to buy my casket.
To lack the cash to pay my bills after I am gone.
To be “broke” in a year or two because I didn’t provide a monthly income settlement as part of my insurance.
To be burdened with the investing of money I refused to trust her with while living.
To be worried and harassed by relatives and friends seeking a loan (?) or a market for questionable securities.
To take financial advice from those unable to handle their own money in a profitable manner. I want her to receive the same expert investment service given me in building my insurance estate.
To learn by sad experience that thousands of dollars of principal means an income of only 16 cents a day per $1000 at 5%.
To be tempted to marry for a meal ticket or to consider the first proposal that comes along. (I’d like to fix things so that she could look around a bit and maybe do better next time.)
To be utterly dependent upon
the whims of whoever she might marry, regardless of the outcome. (I' am egotist enough to believe she will appreciate me more after she marries but I don’t want her to have to put up with a brute or ingrate just because she can’t do otherwise.)
To work at unattractive tasks in unpleasant places. She deserves a chance to prepare herself to do what she may prefer.
To have and to hold only my photograph when she might have life-long proof of my love in monthly income checks from my insurance.
To have to worry over how to arrange our estate when I might have arranged this program with very little effort while alive.
To eat hamburgers, wear old clothes and attend dime shows while I am strumming a harp and making whoopee among the celestial spirits.
To remain single if she meets a congenial companion who could help her forget her loneliness. (I’d hate to feel my wife wasn’t attractive to anyone else or that my living with her had changed this.)

FHA Mortgages
WASHINGTON, D. C. — An entire city of nearly a million population could be housed in the homes on which the Federal Housing Administration has accepted mortgages for insurance, with private capital in each instance furnishing the mortgage money. The Federal Housing Administration lends no money. Mortgages on homes numbering 219,995 in an amount of $889,-474,777 had been accepted for insurance as of July 31, last. A total of 290,000 homes had been selected for appraisal—a number that would house a city for more than a million people, counting the average family at four persons.
Twenty-one building and loan associations in 11 states have supplied more than a million dollars each to home buyers in the Federal Housing Administration, it was made public here today. This capital, whether for new or existing construction, is insured against loss to these associations under the terms of the National Housing Act, Federal Housing Administrator Stewart McDonald said.
A total of 3,637 new homes, or 52% of the residential structures involved, were built in the communities served by these 21 savings, building and loan units as a result of their insured financing activities. The aggregate value of the mortgages is $30,484,263.
“The savings, building and loan associations of the country are steadily increasing their par ticipation in the Insured Mortgage System,” Mr. McDonald said. “For the country as a whole, such private lending agencies had advanced funds on 31,118 mortgages valued at $122,326,855 at the end of the fiscal year. This represents 15.93% of all the mortgages ac cepted for* insurance by the Housing Administration in the same period which were negotiated by all approved mortga-gee-banks, trust companies and other financial institutions.”

The Literary Digest in a recent issue carried the following interesting article which it is believed may help to explain re actions of certain healthful foods.
“Frisky Foods—Don’t reach for the bicarbonate! Avoid par ticular foods that predispose to the burp and general gastric distress. Dr. W. C. Alvarez of the Mayo Clinic has just com piled a table rating the offen sive power of foods which caused distress in 500 human guinea-pigs. The four big of fenders, as reported by Modern Medicine, are raw onions, milk and cream, raw apples and cooked cabbage, each of which caused trouble in more than one-fourth of the cases tested. Chocolate, radishes, tomatoes, cucumbers and eggs produced reactions in 13 to 18 per cent of cases. Least distressful are peas, potatoes, fish and chicken, and maple-sugar holds an almost perfect record—almost no one is food-sensitive to it.”
Continuation
Signal rockets are shot into the sky but the warning message they communicate goes for nothing: the firing from our artillery does not stop. We call the batteries by phone and tell them to quit firing if they haven’t the range. They return that they are firing as accurately as they know how but that they cannot be held accountable for a stray shot falling short now and then. They lay the blame on the condition of their guns, the bores of which they claim are burnt out by the excessive use to which they have been put. Our repeated demands that they improve their range or else quit firing elicits no further response but that we mind our own business.
At four the offending guns silence, but they have succeeded in arresting and then breaking our planned offensive. As I am to learn at a later date, this seemingly unavoidable circumstance was not as accidental as it seemed but the result of a well laid plot between a high Austriam military officer and the Italian generalissimo, Cadorni.
The next day is quiet. The major part of the firing is done and we are huddled in dejected groups in the trench. We perk up at the message: “Tonight we settle up ... the old Kranjec comes ... The Tiger.” (Tonight the Ljubljana Cr-novojan Regiment comes to relieve us). The glad tidings are trumpeted at once to all the companies.
Night comes and we await our deliverers. The enemy is at rest and we are certain that this night holds no peril in store. It is still several hours lacking till the appointed time when there is a reeling crash of gunfire. We leap up in consternation for our batteries are repeating the murderous practice of the day before. Our “podpolkovnik” is shouting into the phone, “You are far out in your reckoning you fools, lift your fire!” but as before neither threats nor entreaties avail. One of the officers makes out the offending batteries through his binoculars. They are howitzers of ItaU-an make manned by the Magyar contingent. When the treacherous fire ends we find that it has resulted in the death of eight men and the wounding of seventy-seven others.
About midnight the “Old Kranjeci” arrive and take over our stinking ver-min-infested ruins. We show them about the trenches they are to occupy and lose no time in making for the rear. The direction we take is through Kostanjevica into Komen.
It is past two o’clock when I leave the lines behind me. My companion is Lieu tenant Kern, an officer of the Pioneers. He is a good, mild and industrious old soul. His patience and forbearance even in the face of injury are prenomenal. A long time later I am to see him dying of a fatal wound received during the 10th offensive and with that all-forgiving smile still softening his features. I pray sometimes that I may die with a soul so peacefully at rest ...
An inky blackness shrouds the night, but I boast that it is impossible for me to lose my way over a region I have covered times without number and that it would take a lot to stump me. We swing along smartly for awhile, presumably in the direction of Korit. Before long I sense that we are out of our way because everything is strange about me. On tne front which we have left rockets dart and flare. We cannot guide ourselves by this and the landmarks upon which I have depended in the past are nowhere in sight. At last I am forced to admit that I have lost my way. We stumble along for a few minutes and with no signs of Korit showing I grow uneasy. Kern’s slow pace especially irritates me so I tell him that I will go in ahead and that I will call out if anything turns up. Five minutes later I blunder into a flooded crater. As I am crawling out a bursting shell startles me and I fall back again. When the rain of dirt and stone ceases I climb out. I retrace my steps then and soon come upon Kern as he slouches along. We go on together now and a half hour later quite by accident hit upon the right road. Yes here is the crosspiece set up this very night and from which the wire still depends: but now for the life of me I cannot tell which side is right and which left. Kern stops in his walk and says with his usual calm, "I’ll wait here, if you find anything you can call me.” I leave him then and a while later come upon a munition dump. I recall that it lies to the right of the road. Heartened by this discovery I wait for Kern and when he ambles up I tell him of my
find. Just before we come into road suddenly ends in a series ° ,eo|ai,leo sheel craters. We turn to the si ^ I jj, avoid these and enter a ra LriF & stumble through it until long 8 Maj has grown light. This ravine ® Goi bewitched for the sun is high	Mai

DOPISI
(Nadaljevanja i 3. atr.)
4.15 popoldne (stalni čas) na WHJB radio postaji v Grccns-burgu, Pa. Godba omenjenega orkestra bo nedvomno zadovoljila vse posetnike. Za drugo postrežbo bo točno skrbel veselični odbor. Veselica se bo vršila v Slovenskem narodnem domu in se bo pričela ob 8. uri zvečer.
Vsi bodo dobrodošli. Torej, na ; svidenje na naši veselici v soboto 16. oktobra. — Za društvo št.
29 JSKJ:
I
John Virant, tajnik.
Denver, Colo. — Federacija JSKJ društev v državi Colorado priredi na večer 4. septembra j veselico v Slovenski dvorani na 4468 Washington St., Denver,
! Colo. Godba bo izvrstna in vstopnina za ples bo le 25 centov za osebo. Drugi dan, to je v nedeljo 5. septembra, se bo pa v j istih prostorih vršilo zborovanje i zastopnikov coloradskih JSKJ, ki spadajo k federaciji. Tem potom vabim zastopnike in vse ■ druge rojake in rojakinje tega | okrožja, da posetijo veselico na . večer 4. septembra. Društvom , JSKJ v državi Colorado, ki še ne spadajo k federaciji, pa priporočam, da pristopijo, kajti ravno federacija je veliko pomo-gla h krasnemu uspehu nedavno zaključene mladinske kampanje.
Dalje sporočam, da Dom slovenskih društev v Denver ju, Colo., priredi piknik 6. septembra popoldne in zvečer. Piknik se bo vršil na vrtu Doma in v dvorani. Vstopnina bo prosta.
Pri Domu smo imeli zadnjih par let velike stroške, zato pozivam tukajšnja in sosedna društva, da v obilem številu posetijo to veselico in s tem podkrepijo domovo blagajno. Dobiček, ki j bo napravljen na veselici federacije JSKJ, pojde v blagajno federacije za kritje stroškov iste. Dobiček veselice, ki se bo vršila na Delavski dan, to je 6. septembra, pojde pa v blagajno Doma, in bo s tem v korist vsej slovenski naselbini v Denver ju. Torej, na svidenje na omenjenih j prireditvah!
Steve Mauser, preds. dr. št. 21 JSKJ, in tajnik Doma.
j Orcfjon Ciin, Orc. — člani | društva sv. Jožefa, št. 76 JSKJ j so vljudno vabljeni, da se kar mogoče številno udeležijo seje, ki se bo vršila 2-5. avgusta in se
I bo pričela ob 7. uri zvečer. Na programu bo več važnih zadev,
0 katerih se bo treba pogovoriti. Dne 30. julija je preteklo 30 let, odkar se je ustanovilo naše društvo, in priporočljivo bi bilo, da proslavimo to obletnico s kako veselico.
Novo društvo ustanoviti pred 30 leti v Oregon Cityu ni bilo lahko, ker takrat je bila večina tukajšnjih Slovencev šele pri-! seljena in brez prave stalnosti. Ljudje brez stalnosti pa so neradi pristopali k podpornim j društvom. Vsekakor so se 9. julija 1907 v prostorih pokojnega Matije Justina začela posvetovanja glede ustanovitve podpornega društva, ker takrat še
II ni bilo nobenega slovenskega društva v tem mestu. Po raznih priporočilih in sugestijah smo se odločili, da ustanovimo društvo in isto pridružino J. S. K. Jednoti, ker se nam je reklo, da je ena izmed najboljših organizacij. Razmere so pokazale, da se nismo zmotili. Na prvemu
■ sestanku se je vpisalo v društvo 13 Članov in prva mesečna seja ! se je vršila 30. julija 1907. Med tistimi ustanovitelji je bil tudi naš sedanji predsednik Frank Sekne. V prvi društveni odbor
1 so bili izvoljeni: Joseph Smrekar za predsednika, Matt Jan-
) čigaj za tajnika in Matija Justin za blagajnika. Vsi trije navedeni so že odšli v kraje, odkoder ni vrnitve. V društveno blagajno se je plačevalo po 75 cen-

RESOLUCIJA
Ker se smatramo zastopniki druge mladinske konvencije JSKJ tudi zastopniki in agitatorji mladinskega oddelka naše Jednote, nas veže dolžnost, da po zaključku konvencije agitiramo in pridobivamo nove člane v mladinski oddelek.
Zato predlagamo, da se izmed sedanje delegacije ustanovi stalen publicijski odsek, ki bo pisal stalno vsaki mesec v Novi Dobi. Temu publicijskemu odseku naj bi načeloval brat Stanley Pechaver (Little Stan), ki bi po možnosti obveščal prizadete delegate in delegatinje, da izvršijo svojo dolžnost:
V svrho boljšega razumevanja, bi ta publicijski odsek funkcioniral po sledečem redu:
Januar: Fred Tomsic, Victoria Kumse, Peter Strucel, Mary Martinčič, Paul Putz, Helen Okorn in Jennie Smith.
Februar: Josephine Mausar, Isabelle Arch, Otto Peternel, Louis Ambrozich, Joseph Rudolf, Anton Hren in Frances Musich.
Marc: Josephine Janezich, Robert F. Jurgel, Edward Bovitz, Lillian Rudolf, Florence Poderzaj in Rose Banovetz.
April: Adolf Skul, Frank Ambrozich, John Cvetan, Edward Zalar, Marie Rus, Emily Kodelja, Mary Petritz in Virginia Miko-lich.
Maj: Frank Regina, Mary Ambrozich, Joseph Okolish, Caroline Kern, Albert Adamic, Gertrude Oblak in Theodore Palcic.
Junij: Izabelle Eržen, Theresa Rupar, Jennie Kern, Edward Terdich, Sophie Kapelj, Olga Vogrich in Jennie Koritnik.
Julij: Robert Turk, Frank Doblekar, Anne Erjavec, Louis Martincich, Jr., Thomas Kužnik, John Tanko Jr., in Rose Pavlovich.
Avgust: Wallace Brezovec, Joseph Pirc, Jennie Železnikar, Molly Koroshetz, Anton Primc, Jr., Robert Watt in John Bacich.
September: Mary Zupancich, John Englich, Jr., Mildred Gaber, Frank Novak, Dorothy Gruden, Frank Mikec in Frances Joan Kolar.
Oktober: Ann Marie Milavec, Margaret Chernilec, Albina Nose, Goldie M. Miklaich, Jennie Šimenc, Milan Peich in Robert Champa.	*
November: Ercolo Bartola, Helen Bavetz, Mary Vehar, Mary Mihalič, Jacob Prunk, Frank Beniger in Sophie Batis.
December: Mary Krivec, Pauline Klobas, Gertrude Maloney, Edward Subic, Angela Mohar, Veronica Barbie, Albert Poklar, Robert Glavan in Dorothy Kochevar.
Naj gre ta resolucija v konvenčni zapisnik, da bo vsak delegat ali delegatinja vedela, kateri mesec naj piše v Novo Dobo.
nedeljo ?2. avgusta in se bo pričela OB DEVETI (9) URI DOPOLDNE (ne popoldne). Sejo smo premestili s popoldneva na dopoldne zato, ker gresta predsednik in tajnik v Cleveland. Prosim člane, da to izpremembo upoštevajo.
Naj omenim, da imamo spet enega našega člana v bolnišnici. Naš dobro poznani Matt Platnar je bil dne 11. avgusta pri delu v tovarni poškodovan na očeh. članom priporočam, da bolnega sobrata obiščejo, sobratu Platnar ju pa želim skorajšnjega o-krevanja. Bratski pozdrav!
John Opeka, tajnik društva št. 44 JSKJ.
Chicago, lil. — Z veseljem sporočam, da sem se srečna, zdrava in navdušena vrnila z 2. mladinske konvencije, ki se je vršila v prijaznem mestu Ely, Minnesota. Za enkrat naj rečeni le to, da nisem pričakovala kaj takega. Skoro sem bila malo v strahu. Ko pa se nas je tolika množica delegatov in delegating sestala na postaji, me je vsa skrb minila. Ko smo dospeli na Ely, so nas sprejeli na postaji z godbo. Postrežba je bila vseskozi izvrstna. Odkrito priznanje zaslužijo glavni odborniki in vsi, ki so delovali, da je konvencija tako lepo uspela.
Ko je prišel čas za odhod, smo se težko ločili drug od drugega. Nekoliko nas je tolažilo upanje, da se čez dve leti spet vidimo na 3. mladinski konvenciji. Ko sem prišla domov, sem izvedela veselo novico, da bo naše društvo Illini Stars, št. 211 JSKJ priredilo v nedeljo 5. septembra piknik v predmestju Clarendon Hills, in sicer na Kobalovih prostorih. Na ta piknik so že zdaj vabljeni vsi bližnji sobrati in sosestre, med njimi tudi v bližini bivajoči glavni uradniki. Za člane mladinskega oddelka bodo prosto na razpolago mehke pijače, sladoled in prigrizki.
K zaključku pozdravljam vse glavne uradnike ter-porotne odbornike in odbornico, vse delegate in delegatinje 2. mladinske konvencije in vse tiste, ki so na en ali drugi način prispevali k uspehu kampanje in konvencije. Ko se nekoliko odpočijemo, pa pojdimo spet na delo, da dobimo $e nedaljne tisoče novih članov v naš mladinski oddelek.
Jennie Šimenc, delegatinja 2. mlad. konvencije JSKJ.
dopadlo na 2. mladinski konvenciji JSKJ,-katere sem se udeležila kot opazovalka in pa kot nekaka spremljevalka Goldie Miklaich, delegatinje društva Danica, št. 150 JSKJ.
Najprej se moram zahvaliti ! Mr. in Mrs. Svetich, kjer sem se naprej ustavila in kjer sem bila tudi na stanovanju, za vso prijaznost in gostoljubnost.
Dalje moram pohvalno omeniti glavne in porotne odbornike, ki so ob otvoritvi mladinske konvencije v izbranih besedah pozdravili zbrano delegacijo, nekateri v angleškem, drugi v slovenskem jeziku. Tekom teh govorov je bilo med drugim poudarjeno, da naj otroci ne zanemarijo svojega materinega jezika, angleščino itak znajo, naj se priučijo še slovenščine, da bodo znali dva jezika. Večina navzočih mladinskih delegatov in delegatinj je dobro razumela slovenski in nekateri so znali tudi dobro govoriti slovensko.
Sobrat glavni tajnik je bil tako prijazen, da je mladinski delegaciji in glavnim odbornikom predstavil tudi nekatere navzoče društvene uradnike in uradnice ter druge člane in članice, ki so prišli pogledat mladinsko konvencijo, nekateri od daleč. Med drugimi sem bila predstavljena tudi podpisana kot večletna agilna uradnica društva Danica, št. 150 v Chisholmu. Vsi predstavljeni so bili glavnemu tajniku hvaležni za to pozornost.
Ko smo imele drugi dan sejo, se je iste udeležila tudi naša delegatinja Goldie, ki nam je v lepih slovenskih besedah povedala, da je bila s konvencijo zelo zadovoljna in da bo za tretjo konvencijo sama nabrala dovolj novih članov, da bo spet delegatinja.
K sklepu pozdravljam vse glavne in porotne odbornike in odbornico, sosestre Gaber, Miklaich, Glavan in druge, s katerimi sem se seznanila tekom konvencije, pa sem njih imena pozabila, in še posebej Mr. in Mrs. Svetich!

Resolucije sprejete na 2. mladinski konvenciji J. S. K. J.
| :	RESOLUCIJA
Iz razloga, ker je kampanja za drugo mladinsko konvencijo prinesla naši JSKJ tako plodonosen uspeh, ne Smerno misliti, da je s tem delo delegatov in delegatinj sedanje konvencije zaključeno.
Ker vemo, da pridobljeni novi člani iz tega ali onega razloga odpadajo iz naše Jednote;
ker hočemo iste člane obdržati ali nadomestiti, ter s tem obdržati pridobljeno število novih članov;
in ker nam je to mogoče storiti, ako ostanemo lojalni napram njaši organizaciji:
Zato mi člani te konvencije skupno in posamezno obljubu-jemo glavnemu odboru JSKJ, da bomo potom društvenih tajnikov in drugih uradnikov skušali obdržati pridobljene člane, in ako kateri odpade, istega takoj nadomestiti z novim, članom.
Ta častna obljuba naj bo glavnemu odboru kot priznanje in plača za njih trud in delo, katerega so imeli z drugo mladinsko konvencijo.
Prosimo tudi, da naj se to rezolucijo priobči na slovenski strani Nove Dobe, da bodo naši stariši videli in vedeli, da nam je Jugoslovanska katoliška jednota prav tako pri srcu, kakor našim starišem in ustanoviteljem.

RESOLUCIJA
Z ozirom na dejstvo dolgoletnega prizadevanja od strani našega glavnega tajnika, brata Anton Zbašnika, da se začrta našemu mladinskemu oddelku nova pot, po kateri bi se dotok v mladinski oddelek povečal in razširil, je on s požrtvovalnim iskanjem in delom dosegel svoj cilj.
Ker sedanja druga mladinska konvencija vidi in priznava, da je bilo to delo in prizadevanje izredne lojalnosti in bratstva napram naši Jednoti;
ker zborovanje te konvencije odobrava in povišuje enako delo med ameriško mladino, posebno med jugoslovansko mladino;
in ker je to odkrito priznanje ter želja, da se z enakimi konvencijami še nadaljuje v bodočnosti:
zato druga mladinska konvencija JSKJ, zborujoča na Ely, Minn., v mesecu avgusta 1937, izreka lojalno in prisrčno zahvalo bratu glavnemu tajniku Antonu Zbašniku za njegovo originalno in vredno idejo. Brez njegove ideje in dela ne bi imela JSKJ že (Ive mladinski konvenciji. Zato naj mu bo potom te resolucije
tov na mesec in društvene podpore se je plačevalo 75 centov na dan, pa je bolniška blagajna dobro obstojala. Zdaj imamo tu v Oregon City ju pet slovenskih podpornih društev, kar je precej za tako malo naselbino.
Pri tej priliki naj še omenim, da je dne 24. maja tu preminil rojak in sobrat Bartol Lužar. Zadela ga je kap. K našemu društvu je bil pristopil 21. marca 1909 ter je bil ves čas dober in napreden član in 8 let tudi blagajnik istega. Spadal je tudi k društvu KSKJ. Naj mu bo ohranjen blag spomin!

Chicago, lil. — Na polletni seji društva Jugoslovan, št. 104 JSKJ je bilo sklenjeno, da se bodo naše seje vršile pri sobratu Johnu' Košičku na 1805 So. Racine Ave., in sicer vsaki tretji ponedeljek v mesecu. (Vabilo na sejo je izpuščeno, ker je dopis prispel v uredništvo prepozno za izdajo 4. avgusta, 11. avgusta pa Nova Doba ni izšla. bp. ured.) člane prosim, da se bolj številno udeležujejo sej. Doslej so prihajali na seje vedno le eni in isti, kljub temu, da imamo vsi enake ugodnosti in pravice pri društvu. Tistim članom, katere je bilo prej strah prihajati na seje, povem, da je 18. cesta prav dobro razsvetljena, in se ni treba nikomur bati, da bi ga bavbav pojedel. Skrbeli bomo tudi, da bodo seje kratke.
Ker v društveni blagajni ni denarja, je bilo sklenjeno, da se razpiše izredna naklada enega dolarja ($1.00) v društveno blagajno. Plačevalo se bo po 25 centov na mesec in plačevati se sačne z mesecem septembrom. Člani, ki so zavarovani samo v smrtninskem skladu, plačajo samo polovično naklado. Ako bi se članstvo bolj zanimalo za dru-itvo, bi take naklade ne bilo tre-sa. Tako se je pa tistih 6 ali 8 ilanov, ki prihajajo na seje in ti tako rekoč moralno in finančno držijo društvo pri življenju, naveličalo hlapčevati ostalemu članstvu. Torej je bil sklep se-ie, ker smo enakopravni bratje n sestre, bomo tudi plačali /sak po en dolar. Ako to ne bo dovolj, bo pa spet naklada. Ta-
ko, da bomo pravilno izpolno-vali načelno izjavo Jednote: “Vsi za enega, eden za vse”; ne pa kakor smo to vršili pri našem društvu dosedaj, namreč: “Eden za vse in vsaki zase.” Sestrski pozdrav! —;Za društvo Jugoslovan, št. 104 JSKJ:

Pittsburgh, Pa- — Na zadnji seji Zveze JSKJ društev v za-padni Pennsylvaniji je bilo med drugim sklenjeno, da se prihodnja seja obdržuje v nedeljo 22. avgusta v naselbini Claridge, Pa. Kakor na vseh drugih sejah, se bo tudi ha tej seji razpravljalo marsikaj koristnega za članstvo in Jednoto. želeti bii bilo torej, da! pošljejo zastopnike na to sejo vsa društva tega o-krožja, tudi ona, ki so od zadnje konvencije v nekaki pasivni rezistenci. Torej, pridite, ker sicer bomo morali beležiti in na znanje vzeti, da za nedoločen čas stojite na povsem moderni in solidni stavki. Ako se hočete izogniti tej naši pogojni obsodbi, ni drugega izhoda, kot da se omenjenega dne vsi spet bratsko snidemo. Bratski pozdrav! — Za Zvezo JSKJ društev v zapa-

Chicago, lil. — Konvencija mladinskega oddelka je minila in upam, da se je delegacija zadovoljna vrnila na svoje domove. Od mladih delegatov in delegatinj pričakujemo poročil, obenem pa pričakujemo od njih, da spet začnejo z nabiranjem novih članov v mladinski oddelek, ko se nekoliko odpočijejo.
Delegatinja Jennie Šimenc, ki je zastopala društvo Illini Stars, št. 211 JSKJ, je obljubila, da pride na prihodnjo sejo, ki se bo vršila v nedeljo 22. avgusta, da nam sporoči, kako je bila na konvenciji. Pravi tudi, da ima nekaj novih članov za o-menjeno sejo. (Tako je prav, Jennie!) Upam in želim, da se te seje članstvo kar mogoče številno udeleži.
Kar mogoče polnoštevilna ueteležba je potrebna tudi zaradi tega, ker se moramo pogovoriti o veselici, katero priredi naše društvo v nedeljo 5. septembra v Kobals’ Grove, na 55th & Clarendon Hills. Na zadnji društveni seji je bilo sklenjeno, da bodo na omenjenem pikniku o-trokom mladinskega oddelka prosto servirane mehke pijače, prigrizek in sladoled. Starši so torej vabljeni, da pripeljejo s seboj svoje otroke, da se z njimi vred zabavajo v prijaznem vrtu. Vstopnice za odrasle bodo po 25 centov. Več se pogovorimo na seji /22 .avgusta. Torej, na svidenje!

Seja se bo vršila dopoldne zaradi tega, ker želi nekaj članov, med njimi tudi predsednik in tajnik, odpotovati v Cleveland. Priporočam, da se člani omenjene seje točno udeležijo, da bo hitro končana. — Za društvo št. 44 JSKJ:
