After all, health and our gen
eral well beings-is of primary
Importance. AS we said, we dc
have an abundance of every
thing, our country is still the
most blessed land on earth, but
we could be a whole lot hap.
pier, a whole lot healthier anc
also wiser, if we took time
out to analyze ourselves anc
took a critical picture of our
way of life once in a while.
Take for instance the case OF
us girls and women. We seldom
go anywhere to give our bodies
proper exercise. Most of the
leisure time is spent inside
either in the house, beauty par.
lor, club, theatre or some other
place of Entertainment. While
in the best of years, our system
fights off all the abuses, but
when middle age sets in, the
symptoms begin to appear -
the symptoms of having worn
improperly fitted high heeled
shoes, of depriving our lungs
of good fresh air, in short of
having deprived our bodies of
normal healthy exercise out in
the open as we'll as of good
nourishing food.
The same seems to be true
of men. Too much pointless
lettering around places Of
"amusement', gambling joints,
etc. If we would use just a
fraction of the money and time
so spent for cultural pursuits,
gymnastics, hikes, recreation
centers, i. e summer camps in
the country, for serious dis
cussions, etc., we would see
wonders accomplished for our
selves, for our communities for
our country. We would be
healthier, saner and happier,
than we are to-day.
Therefore if you are a young
girl, a young wife and mother
and if you feel an urge to i'm
prove your outlook on life, if
you wish to become a better, a
more understanding individual
a live wire and not dead beat
in your community, then,
contact the secretary of one OF
the circles of the Progressive
Slovene Women of America and
join this interesting group OF
women. If there is no circle ir
your neighborhood and you
feel a need for one, write tc
our supreme secretary, Mrs
Josephine Zakrajsek, 1908 Cor
nelia Ave. Cleveland 3, Ohio
and she will send you all the
particulars about organizing
one. We devote our Leisure tt
educational and practical work
from which our members gel
inspiration to conduct better
homes, raise happier ane
healthier families and alst
study and try to improve socia
conditions around us.

FOR A BETTER LIFE

Everything in life is of i'm
portance. The air we breathe
the scenes we feast our eyes
upon, the people we associate
with, the lodges and clubs we
join, the places of entertain
ment we frequent, the music we
listen to, the books and maga.
zines we read, the comments
and debates we listen to, as
we'll as the way we take care
of our bodily needs, all these
and many other factors make
their contribution towards a
more or less balanced and
healthy or a more or less con-
fused and miserable life.
Nowadays we read and hear
much about our high standard
Of living. We hear, how many
comforts and luxuries we are
enjoying and how many more
are within our reach, etc. Yet,
when we ponder and think a
little deeper, when we look
around us, we find that a lot
of this so-called we'll being is
superficial, just a mask for the
many ills and miseries that are
still hidden under this glitter
ing surface.
We certainly are glad Of all
inventions, which tighten our
daily tasks, which have practi-
cally hard physical work, but
we are also aware, that this
sudden emancipation in the life
time of a generation or two has
had it's i'll effects upon us. Not
because the machines in them
selves have brought us harm,
but because our physical as well
as our social structure has not
been adjusted to the ch ang
fast enough. In the past many
sicknesses of the body and ills
of our society have been attri-
buted to ignorance, hard physi-
cal work, etc. and today we
have new ills of mind and body
and new social profile m S
brought upon us by short
sighted and selfish abuse of the
many new blessings and free:
doms. It is evident therefore,
that all these great and com
plicated inventions dem a n d
from all of us, men and women
alike, a much greater effort to
get an insight int the pro-
blems, which arise from their
use. And in order to come to
wise conclusions and honest
decisions, how to cope with al
Of them, we must think, we
must discuss and we must act

High Court Bars Cut Rate
On Lend-Lease Freight
BY the Associated Press

The Supreme Court today ruled
the Federal Government was not
entitled to reduced railroad rates
on phosphates shipped to Great
Britain under the Lend-Lease Act.
The phosphates, owned by the
United States, were hauled by the
Seaboard Air Line Railway and the
Atlantic Coast Line Railroad to port
cities for export as farm fertilizer.
Justice Douglas delivered the
courts 81 decision. Justice
Rutledge dissented.
The phosphate rate decision was
one of several handed down today.
There was no decision in the John
l.. Lewis coal strike case.
During argument of the railroad
rate cases the court was told that
its ruling would aaect many similar
rate suits for large amounts which
are pending in lower courts.
Basically, the issue presented
was whether the phosphates were
a military" supply. The Govern
ment contended they were, the rail-
roads that they were not.
Under a 1910 Transportation Act
the Federal Government was granted
reduced rates for transportation by
land-grant railroads of property
of the United States moving for
military or naval and not for civil
use" Land-grant railroads are
those which years ago received Fed
eral grants of land to assist in their
DEVELOPMENT.

LONDON, Mar. 8 (R.-Alexander
A. Pallas, spokesman for the Greek
Embassy, said today that If the
United States provided arms to
Greece. a full offensive would be
launched against guerrilla forces in
the Kingdoms northern frontier
provinces.
Mr.. Pallas said in an interview
that Greece appealed to Britain sew
eral months ago for more arms and
equipment for strengthened army,
but received no positive answer.
He said there were two ways of
avoiding a Chronic state of rebel
lion" along the entire length of the
700-mile northern frontier. One
was for the United States or Britain
to give Greece weapons to suppress
the guerrilals with a strengthened
army; the other, he said, was for
the western powers to warn those
governments under Russian infiu-
ence that provision of arms to rebels
must stop" He mentioned Yugo-
