A Safe 4+h of JuIv

Cleveland, Ohio-Police Chief
George J. Matowitz today an
nounced a special police en-
forcement program for the
Fourth of July weekend. The
program is in cooperation with
the nationwide effort to reduce
the huge death toll which oc.
ours annually at this time.
"The Police Department is
asking every citizen to take spe.
cial care to save lives and prop.
erty," Chief Matowitz said.
"Particular attention will be
paid to the motorist who drives
at excessive speed or who, at
tempts to drink and drive or
otherwise endanger the lives of
Cleveland citizens"
"All pedestrians are warned
to exercise the utmost caution
when walking in traffic. Vigi-
lance must be the watchword if
accidents are to be prevented"
Chief Matowitz maintained.
The Chief predicted that traf-
fic will be unusually heavy dur
ing this years celebration, when
thousands who have foregone
trips and vacations for five
years start to catch up on their
pleasure driving.
''The long weekend, worn out
tires and cars and festive
spirit will combine with more
travel to make the Fourth this
year a time of real hazards on
the Streets" Chief Matowitz
said. ....,~-
Lets keep Cleveland a safe
city and the Fourth a safe and
sane holiday SO that we will be
alive on the Fifth"

"AnhYdrated" Foods
Coming Next Fall

Anhydrated foods, produced
by a new iquick-drying method,
will be tested on the market this
fall, according to the inventor
of the process, Clarence Birds
eye, Gloucester, Mass, who re-
vealed details of the new system
of dehydrating foods at a meet
ing of the American Society of
Mechanical Engineers.
Declaring that fruits and vege-
ables treated by anhydration
are "in every way as acceptable
as if quick-frozen or freshly
harvested" Mr.. Birdseye said
that preliminary experiments
have shown that the process
may be used for a wide variety
of products such as grains, syn
thetic rubber and resins, soap
flakes and certain wood prod
ucts, in addition to fruits and
vegetables.
Anhydrated foods may be re-
hydrated and cooked in from z
to 20 minutes, he reported.

Post No. 27S

The belated Victory Dance
held Saturday, May 25, 1916, at
the Slovenian National Home on
St. Clair Ave. is now but a mo-
mory which in years to come
will often be revived by those
who have attended. Although it
rained steadily the hall was so
densely crowded that you could
not see the floor. It was one Of
those affairs where. the service
pins were evident in abundance.
We were extremely proud and
happy to have the gallant ex-
service people as our honored
guests for the evening.
On Thursday June 18th, our
meeting was opened right on the
dot by Commander Joseph Cor
nick and the presence Of men,
bers was one of the largest yet.
This is due to our nice quarters
and ever increasing membership.
These club-rooms really hit the
spot. They are so magical that
now we will meet every first and
third Thursday of the month.
The first as a business session
and the latter one for social
activities.
We were very pleased by the
talk our Past Commander, John
L. Mihelich gave about the past
successes and future possibili-
ties of our Post, if the new men,
bers who are now taking charge,
use the past principles as a SYM
bol, to carry on as successfully
as we did in the past. Although
this Post was a small one, it
was regarded as one of the best
in Cuyahoga County.
Our thanks go to Frank Skok
for his fulfilment on Memorial
Day, at the Glenville Cemetery.
Same goes to Matt. ]. Grdina for
his very splendid suggestions,
Commander Joseph Gornick
appointed Matt. j. Grdina as
chairman in forming a degree
team who will be aided by John
Bukovnik and Victor Drobnic.
Your scribe was rather disap-
pointed because Commander
Gornick did not appoint John
Samec to make arrangements
for an outing this coming Au-
gust. John is a champion in that
line, with Clam Bakes and Hay
rides his speciality.
John L. Mihelich will write
members giving full details
about the big community event
which will take place on Sunday,
June 30th.
Last but not least we wish to
express our thanks to the Mer-
var family for the tables donated
to the hall. Incidently the Mer-
vars are the only ones who have
two sons as members in the post.

TRIESTE

MdICu CIlLlIlcQ 1FlcSIC Luu-
Gators" the PRAVDA corre-
spondent Vadim Kozkernikov de-
scribes the activities of Colonel
Simoniti, Director of Education
under the military administra-
tion of the "A" zone of Julian
March, and his adviser, Srecka
Baraga, director of the Trieste
high school, who has had ample
experience of collaboration with
the German occupationists. He
not only denounced anti-fas-
cists, but personally tortured
prisoners. For complicty in the
murder of Yugoslavian teachers,
professors and anti-fascist sci
entists, the peoples court pro-
nounced Srecka Baraga a war
criminal and sentenced him to
death. This, however, did not
prevent the military administra-
tion from employing him as an
adviser.
One would wish to believe,
Kozhevnikov says, that Baraga
is the only mistake made by
the military administration in
selecting leading personnel for
educational activities. Alas, this
is not 50.
The correspondent proceeds
to describe a number Of Trieste
"educators," among them Domi-
niko Kosto, a member of the
Fascist Party since 1919 who
was awarded the Order for
Fascist Services"; Renato Tri-
vizani, a member of the, Fascist
Party since 1925 and Deplty
of the Fascist Parliament; Mani
lilo Udino, a fascist since 1919,
a member of the "Institute of
Fascist Culture" who was
awarded the German "Cross and
Eagle" Order; Chief School In
spector KAHN in Gorilla, former
organizer of the White Guards,
and many others.
Misuse of Funds
In addition, each Trieste
school has on it's payroll teach
ers whom the students have nev-
er seen. These mysterious teach
ers only draw their salaries. For
certain organizations, the school
budget serves as a pension fund
to feed unemployed fascists.
The military administration,
Kozhevnikov goes on, has issued
school curricula. Italian text
books on history trace events
up to 1915, whereas the Sloven-
ian textbooks stop4at 1920. The
history of the liberation strug-
gle of the heroic Yugoslavian
people is a subject banned by
censorship Of the occupation
authorities.
While the study Of the Italian
language is compulsory in the
Slovenian schools of Triests, the
Slovenian language in not COM
pulsory in Italian schools.
The Slovenians are not per-
mitted to open technical or agri-
cultural or trades schools. For
chile enlistment in the nationlist
Dante Alighieri'' organization
is conducted in the Slovenian
schools. The children are order
ed to bring three liras for a COL
lection for the orphans fund,
and then they are handed cards
with a receipt for payment of
membership dues.
The "Dante Aligheieri" Soci-
ETY. is part of the "Liga Nacion-
ale," an organization led by DR..
Fausto, a member of the Fascist
Party since 1920, and Emo Cor
rido, fascist since 1918 and a
member of the Directory Ca

Party) since 1924.

Dear Mrs. Medvedic:
I received your letters writ
ten in res pect to Trieste. Please
be assured that I appreciate
your communication.
You will agree with me
that in the approach to the
problem, we must consider it in
the light of America. In this
war, America suffered 250,O0O
killed and about 85O,OOO injured.
Many of them were Slovenian
boys born in America. Our coun-
try does not want further war.
We want a peace established
that will be lasting for all peo-
pie. Undoubtedly in the last
World War, the Trieste problem
was wrongfully decided. It was
an error to give the whole of
the Venezia Giulia to Italy. The
claims of the people in that
area are sound.

Perhaps the manners of her
boy friend are not perfect.
Here's how she can help

If YOU have cast aside sloppy socks, hobo
i pants and fathers tails-out shirt in
favor of nylons and the most becoming of
dresses, your boy friends may pose prob
lem Certain boys, aware of your new per-
sonality, ask you for dates, But instead of
treating you with new Difference, they
behave as if you we're another boy.
The reason, of course. is plain. Up to this
time, you have looked upon each other as
competitors for school honors in games and
scholarships Suddenly you find they are
lacking in courtesy Actually, it is only that
YOU have changed You have begun to
notice the little things that are missing. And
so you wonder how you can turn these
really nice schoolmates into the sort of beaux
YOU have a right to expect.
Chanqinq Them Takes Skill
| HE answer is that you can change them.
but it will require skill on your part.
A typical example concerns the matter of
clothes Dick has asked you for date and
you have put on your prettiest dress. He
calls for you, wearing slacks and no tie. The
thing to do when he exclaims, Gee, but you
look swellr' is to look pleased and thank
him. Then still smiling. say apologetlcally,
I'm sorry guess I've overdressed.
If this is Dicks first date, don't be too

When He Goes First

If YOU are going by bus instead of in his
car, he will probably stand aside to let you
get on, but he may not know that he should
get off the bus first and courteously help
you off If you are nearer the door, you
should turn aside and let him 60 ahead of
you He should leave conveyance ahead
of you but let you enter first.
On the first dinner date your family has
allowed you to make, you perhaps notice as
never before that Dicks table manners are
far from good. Yet all you can do is be sure
that you are not guilty of similar lapses
such as powdering your nose at the table!
You should make your own manners perfect
and hope you influence him.
These are just a few examples among
many A young lady who wants her
high-school friend to show at his best
must use tact.
Should you attempt to point out his bad
manners, he probably would resent your
setting yourself up as his teacher. This
would bring about no improvement in him
and might result in the loss of his friendship.

house. if he hurries down the steps ahead of
you, gets into the'car and slides over behind
the wheel, leaving you to follow and shut
the door, don't correct him. When you are

remain seated until he comes around and
opens the door for YOU Small courtesies may
seem unimportant to him now, but with
your help he will come to practice them.

present, Paris apartments undertake
to furnish heat only during January
and February. Ordinarily, heat is
furnished from November to April.
I'm most Partisan homes, as many
of life's activities as possible are
centered in one room" DR.. Seidell
related. This is heated by a tiny
coal stove. Coal is not only scarce,
but very strictly rationed, and in
dividual electric and gas heaters as
we know them are neither available,
nor permitted by law. Wood, ex-
cept for country people is almost
unobtainable because Of its exhor-
bitant COST"
The immunity that the Parisians
like the Londoners have developed
against the cold, despite the war
years of sacrifice is simply amazing"
he added.
Theaters Unheated.
Theaters and other places of
amusement are not heated. Those
who attend, do so in overcoats, muf-
flers and gloves. Often blankets and
robes are used for knee coverings
after the fashion at our football
games.
Transportation in Paris is almost
entirely by the subway or horse
drawn vehicles, since the tires on
the buses are worn out and replace
ments are not yet available. If you
go night clubbing in Paris, you get
home the best way you can, and at
a wildly extravagant cost, since the
public transportation system does
not run after 1890 am. Due to
shortages all electricity is shut off
periodically for one-half hour inter-
walls between S and 8 pm. daily
Like the rest of the world. the
French are eager to travel again
after the war years" DR.. Seidell
commented. I'VE do not know what
crowding means by way of COM
parison They pack themselves in
solidly in the trains to the point
where it is almost impossible to
traverse aisles.
Stores are opening up very rapid
ly, especially the de luxe shops, he
recalled. Due to the marked inf1a-
ton and the black market, the peo-
pile of Paris have lost confidence
in money as stable medium of ex-
change, so they spend 1t as rapidly
as possible, upon the theory that
it may buy less tomorrow.
Black Market Persists.
"Apropos of the black market, the
Germans started 1t and encouraged
it, and the French have not been
able to break it up as yet, despite
tremendous efforts, because they are
an individualistic nation, resentful
Of go' ernmental interference with
their personal lives DR.. Seidell OBJ

tries by means of private enterprise
is very similar in conception to the
school of thinking in the United
States which still believes that our
brightest prospects for the future
lie in the development of free enter
prise and continued era of pri-
vately financed pioneering in bust
ness" DR.. Seidell says.
"He is opposed by the group which
stands for Government control OF
all public utilities, railroads and
so forth, as the most effective way
of bringing about the nationaliza-
ton of the French government"
DR.. Seidell, who was for many
years associated with the National
Institute of Health here in this city
has just returned to America from
special mission to Paris as an
honorary consultant for the United
States Army Medical Library. An
officer of the French Legion OF
Honor by reason of his service to
France and his contributions to
science in the field of chemistry
he was no stranger to Paris, which
he had previously visited upon many
occasions in connection with his
work at the Pasteur Institute.
This last trip was especially con-
cerned with resumption of micro
film copying service at the Pasteur
Institute, which he had installed
in 1889 and had ready for opera
ton when the war started.
Advocates Microfilming.
Long an ardent advocate of the
merits of microfilm copying as an
efficient method of disseminating
scientific and technical publications
contained in special libraries and
institutions of learning, DR.. Seidell
paid tribute to the French patriots
for the invaluable service they rem
dered in recording and distributing
in this manner much valuable tech
nical information. Thereby, many
French educational and scientific
avenues of knowledge were kept alive
even during the darkest days of the
German occupation, he said.
"The heating of Paris is better
than it was last winter" DR.. Seidell
observed" But what we Americans
call heating doesn't really exist? At
