Coming Events?

X IOTHING but trouble lies ahead for the
Y world in the opinion of Mr. William r.
Matthews, editor and publisher of the
famed Tuscon, Arizona, Daily Star"
In my opinion, we have started down
the traditional road to world war" warns
this widely known and highly respected
member of the Fourth Estate "Within six
months we will be directly involved in Indo-
China. Within year we will be at war with
China. If these hostities last two years,
before the end of the third year, we will
probably be at war with the Soviet Union.
This war will end in a stalemate of exhaus-
tion and will be followed in this country
(the United States) by violent revolution
and the eclipse of freedom here and
throughout most of the world"
While we must hope that Mr.. Matthews
will eventually have to confess that he was
1000 wrong in his outlook of the moment,
we nonetheless cannot dismiss his dire pre-
diction with the wave of hand and close
our eyes to the facts of life which are cur
rently our collective lot.
Make no mistake about it. America is
in danger grave danger - of becoming
involved in another, perhaps final, war. We
cannot honestly write otherwise.

Big Difference

\ iR Lendon A. Knight President of the
wi National Fraternal Congress, recently
criticized societies that sell life insurance
and ignore the fraternal side.
The MFG leader said as much in an ad-
dress delivered at the Chicago meeting of
the Fraternal Field Managers Association
and, in effect, urged that the MIC rid itself
of those societies which have abandoned
the lodge system and fraternal activities in
favor of selling life insurance for all that
the public traffic will bear.
We are only too pleased to point out
that the Croatian Fraternal Union, mem
ber of the National Fraternal Congress,
does not enter, into the scope of Mr..
Knights very well placed criticism.
The Croatan Fraternal Union does, of
course, sell life insurance on large scale.
1t is pardonably proud of it's many millions
of life insurance in force.
But our Society does not keep one eye
trained on it's millions and the other blind
ed to just two of the countless things which
have made it great institution, to wit,
flourishing lodge system and fraternal &C.
tivities of the first magnitude.
Our Society boasts of some LOO Lodges
and Nests scattered from coast to coast in
the United States and Canada, subordinate
units which, in the great majority of cases,
hold monthly meetings.
Quite few of our Lodges own their
own Homes or Clubs, which are used for
purposes other than those coming under the
definition of business of the Society, worthy
purposes designated to keep their members
all the more united.
X X
AS for fraternal activities the Croatian
Fraternal Union stands in a class by itself
when it comes down to promoting under
takings which appeal to the tastes of all.
It's Annual Tenpin, Duckpin, Five Pin
and Basketball Tournaments are attended
by thousands of members. It's promotion of
Kolo Dancing, Choral Singing, and other
allied arts, is story of activity in itself So
are its numerous Fraternal Day Celebra-
tons its Annual Junior Summer Camp at
Des PLANES, Illinois, and so on, ad infinitum.
These are but few Of the virtually end
less reasons why there is big difference
between the Croatian Fraternal Union and
the societies Mr.. Knight took to task in
his Chicago speech.

Sad, But True

| IKE it or not the sad truth is that en-
l. tirely too many of our Croatian people
insist upon going around knocking each
other for no good reason at ALL
Those who indulge in this pastime of
smearing others of their descent would do
we'll to remember that our people are no
longer one generation removed from the
shores of Europe, that they have been part
and parcel of the United States for decades
If our people still cannot see themselves
in this light, then let them be so convinced
by two outstanding men in public life, Gov
ernor G. Mennen Williams of Michigan and
United States Congressman John P. Saylor,
Johnstown Pa, both of whom are on record
as thinking great deal of Americas citi-
zens of Croatian extraction.
Governor Williams praised our people
on high during the May 9, 1854, Banquet
which brought to close the running in
Detroit of the Croatian Fraternal Unions
goth Annual National Tenpin Tourney
Congressman Saylor spoke in like vein
May 16, 1854, during the Banquet which
climaxed the Goth Anniversary Celebration
of our "St. Rochus" Lodge of Johnstown
a Lodge which has played an important role
in the history of this industrial center
True, some took the words of Governor
Williams and Congressman Saylor with
grain Of salt Others dismissed them as rep
resenting political talks aimed at pocket
ing Croatian voters. Still others probably
"slept through" their addresses and don't
remember what either had to say
The fact remains, however, that both
the Governor and the Congressman could
have passed up their invitations to the af-
fairs in question if yes, if = they
thought for a moment that our people
amounted to little, or nothing, in America
Now, the sooner our people see them
selves as others see them, in the light of
the truth, the sooner all of us will be recog-
nized by the only thing that counts the
fair-minded American public.

Father A Jerk

\h/E were looking forward with pleasure
w to Fathers Day." Sunday, June 20,
until we bought the July issue of the maga-
zine Esquire" and had the misfortune OF
running across, and digesting, Papa Is
Patsy" authored by one Dick Reddy.
Says Mr.. Reddy, among other things
unknown to us: "The American father is
miserable, chinless half-wit He is ignorant,
incompetent and immature, and has barely
enough mechanical skill to tie his own
shoes. All that's kept the oaf from going
to hell in handbasket are the tact and
wisdom of his wife and children, who treat
him like dear retarded child"
This is more than enough to make us
bow our head in shame, more than enough
to convince us that we had best stay in bed
on Sunday, June TO- and permit our family
to celebrate Fathers Day. without going
through the misery of making fuss over
the miserable, chinless half-wit that Mr.
Reddy holds us and other papas to be.
While we have never looked at Stephen
F. Brkch in the mirror and came away con-
vinced that there stood the worlds smart
est human DelnS, we uluI kHoW, uHIi Anl'
Reddy sized us up, that S. F. B. is an ig-
norant, incompetent and immature oaf.
But not all is lost not so long as our
dear wife and three children now know
that only their tact and wisdom have kept
us from going completely to pot long ago.
For that we thank them sincerely.
Never again will we cross the threshold
of the something less than lavish Brkich
Homestead and proclaim to the family that
His Nibs is home from the office, that HIS
Lordship is ready and willing to impart of
his wisdom to those who would profit from
his years of experience.
No, from now on we are going to sit
down with our pet dog and prove to~it that
leading CANNES life is held to be on
higher level than the one we find ourself
to be pursuing as a papa who is strictly
from hunger and a moron to boot
Woe is us fathers as we near Sunday,
June 20, for now we have been exposed for
what we are = dear retarded children, pure
and simple jerks scheoled only in the art
of tieing our own shoes.
Please, Mrs. B and you other three little
BIS, don't think too unkindly of the Old
Man After all, he's all you happen to have
In the way of hubby and pappy
AS for you, Mr. Reddy, will you please

Executes CARVING
Latest Work To

Gently executed a 271a X 80

tribute to the tamburitza,
the oldest string instru-

the woodcarving appears
on this page.
Mr.. Bogdanich inscribed
the following on this at
tractive woodcarving:
"Tamburitza The
Tamburitza, oldest string
instrument in use by a
Christian nation, was de-
vised by Carpathian noun
tain shepherds more than
fifteen centuries ago. It
originally had two strings
and was a 'dangubica' then
pronounced d o n g-g o O.

the day.
"The 'dangubica' la ter

pidly.
, To-day, throughout A

world the modern tambur-
itza is a favorite orchestral
and solo musical instru-
ment."
When the Minnesota Mu-
scum of Mining .at CHS
holm opens it's doors to the
public in the near future,
Mr.. Bogdanich's woodcarv-
ing will be found hanging
on the walls of that institu-
ton. Some 100000 people
