Salute To CFU

THE City of Gary, Indiana, has again seen
fit to honor the Croatian Fraternal Uni
on well in advance of the staging there of
its 4th National Junior Convention.
This time the public recognition
comes in the form of an Official Procla-
nation designating June ~ through July
4, 1855, as "Croatian Fraternal Union of
America Week" throughout Gary as the
City's salute to the American, Alaskan
and Canadian Delegates who will come
to meet there i'm the very near future.
The text of the Proclamation, signed by
Mayor Peter Mandich, himself a member
of the Societys Gary Lodge ITO, appears
on Page of todays zajednicar and should
be perused - enjoyed - by every member
sincerely interested in the greatest frater-
nifty of it's kind on earth.
X X
This, of course, is not the first time that
official recognition, in one form or another,
has been made of the Society's high stand
ing in the United States
Nor, we hope, will it be the last.
But it does mark the first instance i'm
it's proud history that great American
community has seen fit, through it's elec-
ted officials, to set aside an entire week
honoring the CrOatian Fraternal Union
and it's more than 100000 members in
the United States and Canada.
For this we are deeply grateful to Ma
yor Peter Mandch in particular and to his
fellow Gary citizens in general, all of whom
may rest assured that the Societys 4th
National Junior Convention July 2-3-4 will
bring them widespread publicity long after
the Junior and Honorary Senior Delegates
have returned to their respective homes.
In fact, Gary promises to be a CFU
household word for months to come and a
fond memory to the many who will visit it
during this rapidly approaching conclave.

We cannot help but feel that America
is the better off for just such organiza-

Hence our open admiration for the men
and women who comprise their ranks and
make untold sacrifices in order that the
culture of our people shall not vanish from

congratulations and greetings
to all my fellow delegates

our efforts to bring credit to

1t is my hope and desire to
see the convention conclude
it's business within a weeks

our business sessions to last
more than six or seven days.
With proper handling and
control the convention could
conclude it's business in less
than six days.
We should urge our Su-
preme officers to do their ut
most in controlling some of
the unnecessary lengthy de-
bates. / urge all the delegates
to write and inform our Su-
preme officers and urge them
to do their best in concluding
the convention in a weeks s
time.
! At this convention let us
forget our personal argu-
ments. Let US leave our ma
tional and international poll
tical views at home along
with our religious views. They
have no place on or off the
convention floor of the CFU.

benefit of the membership
and to strengthen our organi-
cation with good and inexpen-
sive insurance and real fra
ternalism.
Let us meet in Philadelphia

spirit of unity and fraterna-

The 40 Million

"A /E have never been ashamed of the fact
w that Providence saw fit to see that
we were born of immigrant parents who
came to the United States years ago.
Adlai Stevenson, 1852 Democratic pres
idential candidate, made us all the more
proud of that fact last week when he told
a 3OOth anniversary fete of Americans of
Jewish Faith:
"When l hear people who sound as
though they regretted the fact that any
one dared come to this country after
1776, I often wonder how different the
history of the world might have been if
the nearly 40 million people who did come
to America between the revolution and
the last war had remained i'm Europe
how much greater Europe would have
been in science i'm art in industry, in mo-
raj might and influence; and how feeble
and undeveIoped our dear land would be"
+, Spoken like true American!
- X X
We can only regret that others on the
national scene do not share Mr.. Stevenson's
admiration for those 40 million people, men
and women like our parents = your par
ents - who helped make our Nation what
it is today
For the many in America today owe so
much to- those comparatively few who de-
cades ago tore themselves from their native
lands to come here and join in the building
of a far better country.
1t is, therefore, heartwarming to
know that there stands among us an
American who feels indebted to all immi-
grants who shed blood, sweat and tears
in order that these United States might
be the home of the free, the land of the
brave, the hope of all mankind.
Too bad others cannot be man enough
to admit as much in public print; to thank
them damned furriners for their contri-
buttons to America as a whole.
