Well Worth It

nOES the Croat tan Fraternal Union bene-
- fit from the Conservation Bonus
Awards it pays Lodge Secretaries and Nest
Managers for maintaining n t a ct, or
strengthening, their membership ranks be-
tween January and December 81?
Of course the Society benefits, as witness
the fact that it's Home Office processed $50
Junior and Senior applications alone during
December, 1858, as the direct result of Lodge
Secretaries and Nest Managers striving to
qualify for Conservation Bonus Award be-
fore the end of the year,
Only one of the ten months devoted to
the conduct of the Croatian Fraternal
Unions 1853 Membership Campaign bettered
the December turnover of $50 enrollments
traced to those laboring to lay claim to
Lodge or Nest Conservation Bonus Award.
November 1858, brought in 1856 Junior
and Senior applications for membership to
overshadow the December total of $50 post
ed, in the main, by our Lodge Secretaries and
Junior Nest Managers.
1t should be remembered however, that
November happened to be the closing month
of the 1858 Membership Campaign, the last
opportunity for numerous Field Workers to
cash in on the liberal monetary and other
awards attending that recruiting drive.
But that is neither here nor there in the
final analysis, for all that really matters is
that the Society came to profit, once again,
from it's Conservation Bonus Awards Sys
tom ond ic Grateful to those ,Odoe Score
taries and Nest Managers who took the time
during December to qualify for reward for
saining their membership.

Should You Support The 1854 March Of Dimes" Drive?

how worthy of your support
this organization is.
The greater portion of the
victims of this dread disease
consists of helpless young
sters, and who can say where
it will strike next. It does not
necessarily overtake t h o S e
who are physically weak or
neglected, but many times
strikes those who to all ap-
pearances are healthy, strong
and as well taken care Of as
possible. This was the case of
my little niece.
Bonnie spent the greater
part of last year living with
my wife and me right here in
Pittsburgh. Many will re-
member her as a lively, active
and sociable little girl who al
ways had a smile on her lips,
a song in her heart and the
love of dancing ingrained in
her very nature.
When she became i'll she
was Immediately removed to
the hospital in Sharon, Pa,
and here every possible means
Of cure known to modern
science was placed at her dis
posal. She is now at home
convalescing, still unable to
walk but showing promise of
doing so some day in the flu
ture, thanks to the wonderful
work of the March of Dimes
fund, modern medicine and
improved treatment methods.
When I inquired of Bonnie's S
parents, my daughter and
son-in-laW, whether or not
they received any assistance

in the United States on jan
uary 1st must file an alien

from the March of Dimes, a
fund we have supported for
many years, they readily as
sured me that even today
they are still receiving aid
from this organization.
They are wholeheartedly in
agreement that it is a most
worthy organization for our
support. From this fund, vital
instruments and medicines
needed for the arresting and
cure of this disease are placed
at the disposal of the hospi-
tails and, consequently, the
patients.
This is just one case where
we have witnessed the funds
of the March of Dimes in ac-
ton to save a human life, and
there must be thousands of
similar cases throughout the
nation.
I, therefore, appeal to our
people, and to the listeners of
this program, that they dig
into their pockets and support
this noble cause, this years
March Of Dimes Drive. Re-
member, no one knows where
the germ will strike next, or
who will be in need of assis-
tance during the year.
Make your pledges today
by calling the March of Dimes
operator at H o m e S e a d
1-4221, or McKeesport g.
1888. Or, send your contribu-
tions to the March of Dimes,
care of the American-Cro-
atian Radio Hour, Radio Sta
tion WMCK, McKeesport, Pa.
DO it today!
ZajednicÌŒar = Fraternalist. [volume] (Allegheny, Pa.) 1894-current, 1954-01-13

Pittsburgh, Pa. - The fol-
lowing address was made jan
uary 9, 1854, over the Amer
lean Croatian Radio Hour,
Station WMCK, by bro. John
Bronich, a member of the
CFU Clerical Staff. It's mes
sage should serve to melt the
hearts and pocketbooks of
our G.. f. u. members every
where!
Bro. Bronich's Appeal
The director of this pro-
gram, bro. Tony Brajdic, who
is also my co-worker at the
CFU Home Office, has been
in the practice of utilizing
this time of year to bring be-
fore the eyes of our people a
most noble cause, the March
of Dimes Drive.
His legion of listeners take
great pride in his noble work,
for they realize that he has
joined the vast army of those
who are endeavoring to re-
lieve the pains and the after
math of that dreaded disease
polio, for those children who
are SO unfortunately afflicted.
Brother Brajdic lie a n e d
that my little niece, Bonnie
Lou Burger, who is just five
and a half years Of age and
lives in Farrell, Pa, likewise
fell prey to the Gripping
plague.
On the strength of my ex-
perience with the work of the
March of Dimes Foundation,
bro. Brajdic requested that I
explain to his listeners Just

fled in effect on February s,

fled in effect on February 8,
1888.
Prior to this amendment
the annual session of Con-
gress began on the first Mon
day in December (Constitu-
ton, art. 1, sec. ~. AS the
terms of Members COM
menced on March 4, this
meant that Members elected
in November of the even
numbered years did not take
office for 4 months, and nor
mally did not take part in a
session of Congress for 9
months or more; that is, the
session which began in De-
cember Immediately following
election included Me m b e r s
who had been defeated at the
polls or had not stood for re-
election; for this reason it
was known as the lame duck
session, and the Goth amend
ment which shifted the dates
involved is called the lame
duck amendment. 1t has not
entirely obviated the inconsis-
tency of legislation by a Con-
gress which does not repre-
sent the latest choice of the
people, as witness the last
part of the session of the
81st Congress.
II. Question: What is the
most recent amendment?
Answer: The 22nd amend
ment, certified by the Admin
istrator of General Services
on March 3, 1851, as having
been ratified by the legisla-
lures of three-fourths of the
States. This amendment linn
it's the President to 2 terms.
13. Question: Why was a
constitutional amendment ne
cessary to change the date of
the beginning of the terms of
President, Vice President,
and Members of Congress?
Answer: The Constitution
fixes the terms of President
and Vice President at 4 years,
of Senators at 6 years, and of
Representatives at 2 years.
Any change of date would af-
feet the terms of the incum-
bents. It was, therefore, ne
cessary to amend the Consti-
tuition to make the change.
This shortened the terms of
President Franklin D. Roose-
velt and Vice President John
N. Garner, and all Senators
and Representatives.

Early Months Of 1854

Pit t S bur g h, Pa. - The
"This Is Your Croatian Fra
ternal Union" technicAor film
which had it's premiere show
ing in Chicago on December
9Th, is very popular. A subse-
quent showing in St. Louis
two weeks later emphasized
this. The entire photography
in the film was done by
George Marchan of Chicago,
while the narration was done
by the Zajednicar's English
Editor, Stephen F. Brkich.
BY decision of the C.F.U.
Executive Board as of Decem-
Der 9th, 1858, the booking of
said film is to be made avail
able to our Lodges or Central
Committees by applying to
the Sports-Educational De-
partment, 3441 Forbes St.
No fee is charged for the
renting of same. But we do
expect our Lodges to cooper
ate in the immediate return
of same because if another
Lodge in another community
is booked to show said film a
week later we have but one
copy of the film, reproduce

the film will be shown in
Gary, Indiana, under auspices
of Nest 10 which plays an i'm
portant part in the film.
AS we stated earlier in this
article, the film is available
to our Central Committees

helps to build respect and in

YOUR GOVERNMENT
HOW DOES 1T FUNCTION ?

zenr began the seriazed publication of POI questions
and pertaining to the Government of the United
States of America.
The first questions and answers covered governmental
procedure general and touched briefly the Constitution

ing to the Constitution and

These questions and an
swers should be must read
ing for every member of the
Croatian Fraternal Union of
America, regardless of age.
And now, on with the series! !!
Constitution
9. Question: What is the
Bill of Rights?
Answer: The first 10 a.
mendments to the Constitu-
ton, adopted in 1871, are
commonly referred to as the
Bill Of Rights. AS a matter of
fact, the first 8 really set out
the substantive and procedu-
personal ri g h is associated
with that description, while
9 and 10 are general rules of
Interpretation of the relation
between the State and Feder-
al Governments, all powers
not delegated by the Consti-
tuition to the United States,
nor prohibited to the States,
being reserved to the States
or the people.
10. Question: How long
may a proposed amendment
remain outstanding and open
to ratification?
Answer: The Supre e m e
Court has stated that ratifi-
fication must be within "some
reasonable time after the pro-
posal.' Beginning with the
18th amendment it has been
customary for Congress to
set a definite period for rati-
fication. In the case of the
18th, Goth, 21st, and 22nd a.
mendments the period set was
Y years; but there has been
no determination as to just
how long a reasonable time
might extend.
On the occasion of the
150th anniversary of the Bill
of Rights, the 3 States of
Connecticut, Georgia a nd
Massachusetts,, which had
never taken action on them,
ratified the first 10 amend
ments which had been a part
of the Constitution for a CEN
tury and a half.
II. Question: What is the
"lame duck" amendment?
Answer: The 10th amend
ment, adopted upon ratifica-
tion by the 36th State on JAN
uary 23rd, 1888, and certi-
