|0'Hara Offers D. {.
'Fair-Trade' Bill

| Representative O'Hara, Re-
publican of Minnesota, has in
troduced in the House the So
called fair trade bill for the Dis
trict.
The measure is similar to q
law effective in As out of the "a
States. It would permit a manu-
facturer. to set and enforce q
minimum resale price on his
trade-marked merchandise.
Such a measure, it has been
pointed out by opponents Of the
legislation. would prevent the
sale Of national brand articles at
cut-rate prices. Proponents say
it would prevent unfair compe-
tition and resulting economic
casualties"
To prevent abuse of the bills
provisions, articles would have
to be in free and open competi-
ton with similar articles pro-
duced by others, before the mini
mum price level could be ef-
fective.
Mr.. O'Hara emphasized he had
introduced the bill by request.
but he did not say who had
asked him to introduce it.

as we concluded our little vi

AS we conclude this article,
we hear that our members
and friends are responding
enthusiastically and that a
large number Of tickets have
already been sold for the
, event. Let's all get together
and show Joe that it is our
turn to carry the ball for him.

Lodqe 20 Members Are
Vacafioninq For Spell

S. s. Pittsburgh, Pa. - At
the regular meeting of GU
Lodge 20 held in the month
of June, the membership de-
cided to dispense with the
July meeting inasmuch as the
annual CFU dividend is re-
corded at this time and only
a portion of our affiliates are
called upon to pay their dues.
We also mention at this
time that our Treasurer, Bar
tol Matesich, is departing this
month for a visit Of a few
months duration to the land
of his birth. Likewise, yours
truly is leaving the city on
July 18th and it is doubtful
that I would return in time
for a July meeting.
For these reasons our next
session will take place in Aug
ust, at the regular time and
place. At that gathering I will
enter the dividend amount in
your individual books. Please
attend in order that this mat
ter may be taken care of as
soon as possible.

Corsairs Thrill
Duquesne Juniors

Duquesne, Pa. - There is
so much misery and bad news
in the world that when some
thing nice happens it should
be told. That is why l would
like to tell you of the pleasure
I received in taking a group
of our Junior members to the
recent baseball game at
Forbes Field in Pittsburgh.
They have become men,
bers of the Pirate Knot Hole
Club through the GU. On
the streetcar all the way to
the game the children anx-
iously talked Of the JOY of
seeing a real ball game-somc
of the boys are members of
the Little League. At the
game every time I saw a
youngster or a group with
cards like we had my heart
swelled with pride and I
thought there are some more
-
Croatians". 1t certainly was a
joy to see.
My group enjoyed explain
ing the different plays, since
it was my first baseball game,
and I found it quite interest
ing. After the game we stayed
and collected autographs of
the ball players and on the
way home there were quite a
few interesting conversations
due to the game, autographs,
and plans to attend the next
game scheduled. We are an
xiously looking forward to
meeting some more of our
Junior members from other
towns.
l think it is a wonderful
thing that the CFU has made
arrangements to treat these
youngsters to these games. If
we adults take an interest in
our children, and provide en-
tertainment for them, it will
help curb juvenile delinquent
cy.
