It is doubtful II anyone goes
through life without meeting and
overcoming some difficulties or OBJ
stacles, much less the Christian
who clings to the practice Of the
faith as taught by Christ.
Because the Christian is not Of
this world, but spiritual, the world
hates light and truth. For this rea-
son the Christian Is prosecuted. To
live in a world of hate is the pro-
blem, the obstacles the Christian
must overcome.

had been handling the Trieste

lied Forces in Europe during
the war, but again after the
war was the first NATO Com
mander, and he should have
had a thorough, first-hand
knowledge of the delicate ma
ture of the highly explosive
Trieste issue.
Blatnik said he felt the
President was deeply and gen.
timely disturbed by Wit had
happened and apparently he
shook up those responsible
for the blunder, for the Octo-
Der 8th, 1858, dc ;laration was
not put into effect, and the
American State Department
representatives i m m ediately
took the lead in bringing a
bout the negotiations which
were just formally concluded
by pact.
National colun.nist Drew
Pearson last year listed Blat-
mix as one of ten men who
made an outstanding contri-
button toward peace that
year.
During the last war Con-
gressman Blatnik spent ten
months in Italy, and 8 mcHths
with the Yugoslav Partisans
in Croatia and Slovenia in
Northern Yugoslavil. He was
the first American to enter
Trieste during it's occupation
Just before We Day. For the
rest of that summer in 1915
he remained in Trieste as Po-
litical Adviser to u. S. Col.
Alfred Bowman, American
Military Government Com
mandant of Trieste, which
gave Blatnik an opportunity
to become familiar with the
complex, involved, l. ,torically
controversial problem of Tri-
este.
Of Slovene extraction, Blat-
mix is the only member of the
United States House of Rep
resentatives of Yugoslav de-
scent.

were made by prominent pro-
fessors of the school. Then,
the students marched to the
stage to obtain that for which
they worked SO diligently for
four years, that cherished
diploma.
One of the proud recipients,
our own DR.. Louis Andrijase-
vich was born on May 25,
1929, in South Chicago. He
attended the John L. Marsh
School and the famed James
Bowen High School and then
w ent on the Pre-Dental
School of the University of
Illinois, in Urbana.
DR.. Andrijasevich received
his initial honors when he
was accepted into the Phi Eta
Sig m a Honorary Society,
Champaign, Ill. Only those
high in scholastic achieve
ments are eligible to become
affiliates Of this select group
of students.
Before completing his stu
dies at the college, DR.. Andri-
jasevich was Informed that
he was also accepted into the
Kappa Upsilon Honorary So
ciety, the highest honor which
can be bestowed upon a stu
dent. He was also a member
of the Psi Omega Dental Fra
ternity.
Here is concrete example
of the sterling calibre of our
Croatian youth! Here is
proof positive that our peo-
pie have reason to be proud
of their progeny, their ability
to assume a role in the Amer
lean way of life and establish
a sound reputation among the
best.
Our members Of c. F. u.
Lodge 9 should take pride in
the achievements of a fellow
affiliate and join his parents
ZajednicÌŒar = Fraternalist. [volume] (Allegheny, Pa.) 1894-current, 1954-10-20

and friends in wishing him a
world of success in the future.
We might add here too,
that just a week following his
graduation, DR.. Andrijase-
vich became united in marri-
age to lovely young Leonora
Sprain, who also received her
degree from the School of
Nursing.
The parents of our young
doctor are we'll known frater-
nalists in this territory, ever
anxious to participate in all
Lodge ventures. His father
was a nest manager for many
years, as was his mother, Lu-
cy.
This we can readily state:
Mr.. and Mrs. Andrijasevict,
and their son Louis are in
deed a credit to our colony.
May they all enjoy good
health and success in the fu-
ture.

approaches to the theme of
the Conference for the ben
eft Of the panel discussions
which followed.
The remainder of the day
was devoted to panel discus
sions by various groups, Of
which there were twenty-se-
ven. We were pleased to be
associated with group num-
ber three at which we pro-
ceeded to discuss the various
problems raised by the key
note address of the Honorable
Justin Miller. These discus
sions continued throughout
Thursday.
IT, net result Of our group
discussion was a recognition
of the fact that today there
is a gradual encroachment
upon the three branches of
Government by what could be
Z lied a fourth branch, to-
wit, the adm i n i S t r a t v e
branch. This alleged branch is
made up of the different bur-
eaus, commissions, boards,
authorities, etc., which have
been fathered by legislative
acts for the carrying out of
specific duties, such as the
Forest Conservation Board,
Interstate Commerce Com
mission, Securities Exchange
Commission, Radio Trades
Commission, Tennessee Val
ley Authority, etc.
Against Constitution
It was recognized that in
permitting these Boards to
assist, we have a condition
not provided for in the Con-
stitution and definitely one
against which the Constitu-
ton was designed.
These Boards, etc., exercise
Legislative, Executive and
Judicial powers and by being
permitted to continue unaba-
ted, they have become an in
tegral part of our Govern
ment.
It was felt that a study
should be made of these
Boards to determine the ne
cessity of them and that this
study be designed to make
recommendations for the a.
bolition of those that were
deemed to be conflicting in
their powers and to reinstate
the Legislative, Executive and
Judicial branches of our Gov
ernment with the powers now
enjoyed by these Boards.
Chartered BY Congress
The annual dinner was held
on Thursday night, and on
Friday morning the closing
session was held, at which
the summarization report was
submitted and the Ninth Ma
tional Conference on Citizen
ship came to an end.
We mentioned earlier in our
report that Supreme Presi-
dent Mandich had the distinct
honor of being the first voting
delegate Of the Croatian Fra
ternal Union. This arises from
the fact that the Citizenship
Conference has been charter
ed by Congress and will now
be self f-sufficient.
Delegates will conduct the
business of the Conference
and officers will be elected,
fees assessed, etc. To this end,
the Honorable Justin Miller
pointed out that each mem
ber society meeting three re-
quirements would be entitled

thought-provoking discu S.
sions along the general theme,
"The Three Branches of our
Federal Government-Yester-
day, Today and Tomorrow.
We were pleased to accom-
pany Supreme President V. l.
MAJ. dich, who also was a del
egate and who had the dis
tinct privilege of being the
first voting delegate of the
Croatian Fraternal Union of
America. This phase we will
develop at greater length in
our report.
The number of delegates
present was the largest in the
history of the Conference and
once again it was the distinct
privilege Of the Croatian Fra
ternal Union of America to
be the largest Fraternal Ben
eft Society represented at the
Conference.
An Inspiring Opening
The opening session, which
was chaired by the Honorable
Justine Miller, President of
the National Conference on
Citizenship, was an inspiring
one, what with the presenta-
ton of the state and terri
torial flags, the advancement
of the colors, the stirring mu-
sic of the United States Navy
Band, the speeches of well
come by the Honorable Her
bert Brownell, Jr., Attorney
General of the United States,
and Miss Waurine Walker,
President Of the National Ed
ucation Association.
We would like to make a
few comments on Miss Walk
er's address of welcome, in
which she emphasized the
battle Of despotism VS.. demo-
cracy. Among the many
thoughts she left with us
these remain uppermost, and
that is that the battle for
freedom is never completely
won, but that each genera
ton must renew the battle
and must fight to preserve
that which has been handed
down so that it in turn may
pass it on to it's successors,
and that each generation
springs up through the strong
hand of youth which receives
the torch of freedom and car
ries it forward.
Janice Anzulovic Sings
To President Mandich and
myself, the highlight of the
morning session was the rem
dition by one Miss Janice Wee
Anzulovic of God Bless Ame-
rica" at the conclusion Of the
session. Miss Anzulovic in
formed President Mandich
and myself that her father
had immigrated from Yugo-
slavia when he was 16 years
of age and, through his own
efforts, succeeded in obtain
ing the necessary education in
the United States Until he re-
ceived his masters degree.
Her first expression was:
II am pleased to meet you,
for I am half Croatian and
am very proud of my father,
and my people," Miss Anzu-
lovic is a student at the Ober-
lin College Conservatory of
Music. .,..
Top Panel Discussions
The second general session
consisted of a luncheon at
which the keynote address by
the Honorable Justin Miller
was given. In this address,
ZajednicÌŒar = Fraternalist. [volume] (Allegheny, Pa.) 1894-current, 1954-10-20

to one voting delegate. The
requirements are:
1. That the society be ma
tional in character.
2. That it have individual
or group membership.
8. And that it have affili-
ations in at least one-third Of
the states.
Happily enough, the Cro-
attain Fraternal Union Of
America meets all three of
the qualifications and, there
fore, is entitled to a voting
delegate.
Impressive Ceremonies
We would be lacking in our
report if we failed to COM
ment upon the impressionable
n a u r a lization proceedings
held in the Statler Hotel on
the occasion of the fourth
general session, Friday, Sep
tember II, 1854.
I defy anyone to witness
these proceedings, the admin
istering ofS the oath, the
pledge of allegiance, etc.,
without experiencing a chok-
ing sensation and a fearful
eye, for if ever American citi-
zenship has a meaning, it is
evidenced on this occasion.
An interesting sidelight Of
this naturalization proceeding
was the calling upon one Of
the petitioners, after the
others had had the oath ad-
ministered, to renounce a title
he had from the country Of
his birth. This man raised his
left hand on that occasion,
whereupon the Court called
his attention to the fact that
he must raise his right hand,
and the Court in turn was in
formed that the individuals
right hand was missing from
the shoulder down.
For The Society's Good
We are pleased to submit
this report and it is our sim
cere belief that membership
in this Conference on the part
of the Croatian Fraternal
Union is one of the better
things that has happened to
| the Croatian Fraternal Union.
We feel Notwithstanding
anything we can now imagine,
the Croatian Fraternal Union
should continue to participate
in these Conferences and
maintain it's membership.
We wish to thank the Ex-
ecutive Board and the men,
bers for permitting us to be
present as a representative of
the Croatian Fraternal Union
to the Ninth National Confer
ence on Citizenship.
