United Lodges Of South Chicago Will
Stage Huge Celebration September 5th
Members Of Nine Lodges To Commemorate
CrOatian Fraternal Unions Anniversary

So. Chicago, Ill. - Com
memorating sixty years of
fraternalism and the found
ing of the great Croatian
Fraternal Union, the South
Chicago C.F.U. Lodges have
made plans to stage a gigan-
tic joint celebration on Sun
day, September 5, at the Gro
atian Hall, 9618 Commercial
Avenue.
Sparked by "St. Anthony"
CF'U Lodge 94S, the idea i'm
mediately received enthusi-
astic response from the other
Lodges. Participating Lodges
set about to select their ablest
members to serve as Commit
teemen and the first meeting
displayed a heart-warming
willingness on the part of
these members to work to-
gether in the true spirit of
brotherhood.
Subsequent meetings pro-
duced an even more pro-
nounced intensification of ef-
fort and there is very indica-
ton that the CFU members
and guests can look forward
to a memorable day.
For the united effort the
Lodges have assumed the
name Of "The United Lodges
of South Chicago This
group is composed of repre-
sentatives of Lodges 9, II,
80, 29O, 11s, 229, 275, 440,
and 948.
The very able Executive
Committee is led by bro.
Steve Zelenika as President,
and serving with him are Mi
chael Nosich, Secretary, John
Krilich, Vice-President, and
Steve Matalin, Treasurer.
While the program details
are incomplete at this early
date, it can be reported that
arrangements are being made
to present a showing of the
popular film, "This Is Your
Croatian Fraternal Union"
Many of our members and
friends have heard about the
film but have not, as yet, had
the pleasure of viewing it.
They may avail themselves
Of this pleasure and many
others by reserving Septem-
Der 5th for this occasion.

planned and we ask for your
assistance in making it a sue

View Park to the Society's
Sixtieth Anniversary Year.
The celebration will be CO.
sponsored in conjunction with
the Executive Board of the
Croatian Fraternal Union in
keeping with a Supreme
Board decision made in 1858.
Delegates attending tn e
Saturday, July 3, meeting
will be brought up to date on
all plans for the festivities at
West View Park. Any sugges-
tions from the floor for the
betterment of this national
celebration will be gladly en-
tertained and discussed.
Desire Great Turnout.
A check of the names Of
Delegates in attendance at
the Committees last regular
meeting, held February % at
Etna, reveals that the follow
ing w e tern Pennsylvania
Lodges were represented on
the occasion:
Month Side Pittsburgh 1;
Etna 4; Rankin 6; North
Side Pittsburgh 10; McKees-
port rs; Lawrenceville "a;

Rural Ridge 626; North Side
Pittsburgh 706; New Brigh-
ton 1888; and Curtisville $40.
The records further show
that a total of 96 Delegates
represented 80 Lodges at that
particular meeting, at which
time the Committees 1854
officers were elected.
The least that we can hope
for now is that a like number
of Delegates will turn out for
the Saturday, July 3, pro-
ceedings in Etna. The Com
mittee officers can most GER
tainly use the moral support
of such a large and enthusi-
astic group of members.
Glee Clubs Preparing
While the July Is agendum
for the West View Park fiesta
is not as yet complete, most
of the plans for the Goth An
niversary program have al
ready been taken care of.
Representing the American
Croatian Singers Federation
on the program will be the
"Preradovic" Glee Club of
Gary, Ind, and the 'Rodo-
Iub" Singing Society of
Johnstown, Pa, the former a
member of the "Mihanovic"
Alliance, the latter of the
"Faller" Alliance. Both were
the choices of their respective
Alliances to appear on the
occasion. ,->e
A Kolo Group comprised of
some 40 boys and girls from
East Pittsburgh and Clarion
has also been assigned a pro-
minent spot on the July 25
program at West View Park.
These are but a few of the
plans which will eventually 60
into one huge, well knit pro-
gram destined to honor the
60th Anniversary of the Gro
atian Fraternal Union in a
manner which will please
even the most discriminating
among those attending the
festivities. e.

Panel Seeks Answer
To Question Of Texas
Shares in Rail Fight
BY the Assoeioted Press

ALBANY, N. Y, May 28.-
Three law professors today
sought an answer to a power
packed question that refuses to
be, sstilled - whether 100000
shares Of New York Central Rail-
road stock owned by two Texas
n1illionaires can be voted by the
iIisHrgent forces Of Robert r.
Young.
Mr.. Young is trying to unseat
the present management, headed
by William White, and take over
control of the railroad, second
only to the Pennsylvania among
the worlds privately-owned lines.
The professors. sitting as elec-
ton inspectors in the fight, are
Robert w. Miller of Syracuse
University, John Hanna of Col
umbia University and Covington
Hardee of Harvard Law School.
Temporary Answers.
The issue they are considering
has been temporarily resolved,
at various times since March. by
the courts and the Interstate
Commerce Commission.
The controversial shares have
been bone of contention since
March Is, when the railroad
asked the ICC to investigate
whether their acquisition had
violated the Clayton Antitrust
Act.
Since then the Central has lost
round after round, before the ICC
and in the courts, in efforts to
block voting of the stock in the
current fight.
Behind padlocked doors guard
ed by uniformed railroad police
and Pinkerton detectives, attor-
neys for the opposing sides ar
gued for 80 minutes yesterday
on a challenge by Central man

to vote the 100000 shares.
Either Side Could Appeal.

either side could appeal it in

That could mean many added
days, perhaps weeks, of delay
