bership will be honored only
if received at the Supreme
Office on that date or sooner,
regardless Of when approved
at lodge meetings.
Every member who is a
member of the Union for
two years, and of the lodge
for six months, has the
right to run for delegate.
Every member who is in
good standing with the
Union on March 31st, has
the right to vote in the
election of delegate.
From now, until the time
for election of delegates, any
inquiries as may be received
which are of general interest,

to time.
Don't Overlook Campaign
A while back, we published
a list of lodges falling just
short of 200 members, and
urging them to increase their
membership to the required
total, so that they may quail
ify to elect their own member
as delegate.
We also brought the lod-
ges who needed very few
additional members to be
represented at the coming
convention by the same
number of delegates as at
previous conventions.
In conclusion, do not forget
that this is the jubilee year of
our Junior Order, and that
we are striving to conduct a
successful campaign in honor
of that branch of the Society
so we ask, beseech and expect
the cooperation of every
member of the Croatian Fra.
ternal Union in America and
Canada. -:

By v. l. Mandich, Supreme President

By V. /. Mandich, Supreme President
Pittsburgh, Pa - Lately, have been receiving let
ters from Lodge officers and individual members pertain
ing to the Soceys 9th Quadennial Convention to be held
in Philadelphia next September We always glad to give
the requested information in accordance with the bylaws
of the Croatan Fraernal Union and the interpretations

posed are OF such general in
terest and Importance that l
believe it advisable to bring
them to the attention of the
rank and file membership
through our official organ,
especially in those matters
which have, in the past,
caused us unnecessary head
aches.
First, I wish to quote Sec
ton "a of the bylaws: Each
lodge shall have the right to
elect a delegate as determined
by the number of members it
had at the end of the month
of March in the year when
the regular Convention is to
be held"
In explanation of this
section, and for the reason,
that, Immediately before
the last Convention, we
were unnecessarily re-
Guired to defend our ac-
tions before the Insurance
Department of one of the
states, with which some of
our members filed COM
plant, perhaps it should be
stressed that the end of the
month of March, as stated
in the bylaw just quoted,
means March 31st, which
this year happens to fall ON
a Thursday.
In past convention years,
many of our lodges boosted
their membership with men,
bers who came from other
lodges with Transfer Cards.
Tos make it plain. we wish to
stress that no Transfer Card
viii be honored for March, if
it is not actually received at
the Supreme Office on or be-
fore March 31st.
Those, whom this concerns,
especially our lodge .secreta-
ries, should take special care
to send all such Transfer
Cards to the Supreme Office
on time.
Deadline Is March 31st
Other lodges undertake to
increase their membership by
the enrolment of new men,
bers during March.
Every application for men,
bership reaching the Supreme
Office on March 31st or soon
er, will be included in the to-
tai membership for that
month for purposes of elec-
ton of delegates. Here, too,
our lodge secretaries are
urged to send in all applica-
tions for membership on time.
The combining of lodges
with less than 200 men,
bers, for joint election of
delegate, is a tremendous
task. That task must be
completed between March
31st and April 9Th, when
the official call for the
Convention and for the
election of delegates, must
be delivered to the Editors
of the Zajednicar for publ
cation in the issue of April
18th.
Therefore, the Executive
Board will have only eight
days time after March 31st,
for the combining of lodges,
and it will not be possible to
make any changes in the
number of members in any
individual lodge after March
31st.
Necessary Qualifications
Another question frequent.
ly asked by our lodge officers
and members is, who has the
right to run for delegate?
The most important quail.
fication required of every
candidate for delegate is
that, at the time of nomina'
ton for candidate, he is q
member of the Croatian Fra.
ternal Union at least two

ZajednicÌŒar = Fraternalist. [volume] (Allegheny, Pa.) 1894-current, 1955-03-09

1HeTcIOrc, every UeIHDeF
of the Union carrying life
insurance, regardless Of
whether or not he is in
sured on all funds, and who
contributes to the admin
istration expense fund, has
the right to run for dele
gate.
At one time, there was a
clause in the bylaws which
provided that candidates for
delegate must be insured on
all funds, but that was amen
ded and is no longer in force.
Accordingly, all members
who are insured with the
Union only for death benefit,
regardless of the type of GER
tificate, n a m ly Ordinary
Whole Life, 20-Year Endow-
ment, or 20 Pay Life, while
they contribute to the ex-
pense fund, also have the
right to run for delegate to
the Ninth Convention.
Re: Paid-Up Certificates
Members who hold Paid
up Certificates, that is, who
had 20 Pay Life certificates
which matured, likewise have
the right to run for delegate,
if they are paying into the
administration expense fund,
according to an opinion of the
Supreme Counselor given in
September, 1853.
Only those members who
hold Paid-up Certificates g,
and who are not insured on
the other funds, nor do.
they pay for the expense
fund, do not have the right
to run for delegate.
/ An Interpretation of the
Supreme Board on that ques-
ton was necessary, and the
proposed bylaws to be SUBJ
mitted to the coming Conven-
ton, will recommend the a.
doption of a bylaw to cover
these cases.
Members In Good Standing
Every member in good
standing with the Union, has
the right to vote at meetings
for the election of candidates
and delegates. .-: =
: There were instances in the
past, where lodges, or the
: candidates for d e e 6 a t e s,
: questioned the right of a
member to cast his ballot il
he was two or three months
; in arrears with the lodge in
payment of his dues.
If such member was not
: suspended in the Supreme
Office as of March 31st,
he has the right to vote in
the election of candidates
for delegate in his lodge.
Members who are on re-
serve, have the right to vote
in the election of delegates.
1t matters not whether the
member himself is paying his
dues through his lodge, or if
the amount of his dues is be-
ing deducted from his reserve
with the Union, such member
is in good standing in the
: Union.
Associate Members do not

fund, and are not, therefore,
} entitled to vote in the elec-
2 tions, nor may they run for
i, delegate. However, there are
/ any Associate Members
who, in addition to their GER

bers, also hold regular mem
bership certificates in the
Union, and as such, of course,
pay for administration expen-
ses, and have all the rights
of candidacy and casting of

Mr.. Dale, the master of bridge
.hVlnanics. bid his cards strong
" 10 reach contract Of three
no-tfupnp. That was because
he didn't expect to get the best
defense from Abel and Muzzy.
And he was right.
Mr.. Abel opened the eight Of
hearts, dummy ducked and Mr..
Muzzy won with the queen. It
occurred to him that while Mr..
Dale probably had the king Of
spades, Mr.. Abel might have the
guarded queen.
II so, the underlead Of the
ace Of spades at this point
seemed to him q very clever
move. s
He led the fiye Of spades at
trick two and Mr.. Dale false
cartied, winning with the king.
Holding four cards in the suit
and having no preference for
any other lead. Mr.. Abel elected
to signal with the eight spot.
The defenders had started to lay
3 neat trap for themselves.
At the third trick Mr.. Dale
led 8 heart to dummy's king and
Mr. Muzzy won with the ace.
Here 3 good player would have
seen the throw-ill play coming.
He would have got that ace Of
spades out Of his hand fast. But
not Mr.. Muzzy. Again be under-
led the ace of spades.
Mr.. Dale won with the queen
and laid down the king Of dia-
monds. The play Of the jack
ON his right didn't surprise him.
He hadn't expected the dia-
nlonda 10 break. But the play
Of the spades by both opponents
had convinced him that Mr..
Muzzy had the lone ace left.
Accordingly be cashed the
Jack md 10 of hearts. Then he
ent1fe dummy with the ace Of
diallelds and Mr.. Muzzy showed
Cas topping the six ot clubs.
Next came q spade lead and Mr..
Nazzy was In with the ace.
Holding nothing but clubs. he
found himself In the absurd
