Dear Friends:
This is the older lady of the
group who stopped a week ago
inquiring about the old Jones
place. We will not go back to our
home in Indiana, until next week
sometime, but the young man
with his family returned Sunday
evening.
From the information you
gave US, we made out just fine.
| was sure of the place when
we got to it, but the young man
there did not agree with me so
we drove on and turned left at
the next corner and stopped in
front of the first house which
turned out to be Jasper Fultons
and related to US, so we had a
good visit there. He took the
rest of us to see a cave on the
farm and l visited with his wife,
then we went back to the Jones
farm where they welcomed US
and we looked all around, turned
out wonderful.
Then we came back to Ava,
saw the Shenandoah monument
and took the Perry's Den road
but had quite time to locate
it as it is all grown up in weeds,
etc. We finally got back as far
as the building then couldn't
find it, we were giving up when
a car drove in and evidently
some city man has bought it for
a weekend retreat and he told
US how to 60. We crossed little
creek and drove through brush
and weeds back to an old barn
then we walked and found it.
Coming back out, the road gave
away the car dropped down, so
we had quite a time getting out,
but we got to Caldwell about
100 o'clock for our dinner.
This was the high point of the
trip for me, as all my life I've
wanted to come to Ava and
Cumberland.
Ten years ago, l had severe
heart attack and from that time
on, l wondered if l would ever
make it here. | was extremely
happy that | did. The trip as a
whole was the most wonderful
one we have ever made. I've

WHOSE PROPOSAL IS THIS?

Number on a separate ballot on Elec
tion Day is a bill by the Congress of
Industrial Organizations (the CIO) to
increase unemployment payments. The
CIO is disgruntled over recent action of
the Ohio Legislature, your elected law
making body, in refusing its eIorbitant
demands for higher payments and is try
ing now to "sell" it's issue to the people.
The CLOS demands exceed unemploy-
ment payments paid anywhere in the
y. S. A.
If the CIO succeeds in by-passing the
legislature this time, it will have the
green light for more fantastic initiative
proposals in the future.

WHO RECEIVES VOORHEES, PAYMENTS?

The CIO claims only willing workers

quires, will be paid compensation. But

many of them loafng in the sun while
others paid the bill.
If these abuses occurred under lower
rate of hand-out, imagine what it will
amount to if the CIO is successful!
It's bill is an open invitation to "free-
loading" at public expense!
The journal. (Caldwell, Ohio) 1934-1961, 1955-10-20

HOW MUCH WILL 1T COST YOU?
If the bill is passed, it will cost an Off
cially estimated additional $47 500 10000
per year at least.
The CIO is trying to fool the public -
and that includes all of us - into think
ing that this increase will not raise taxes
and prices.
You hear the CLOS line every day.
They say unemployment compensation
is not a new or increased tax. This is
not even hatf-truth. 1t really means
hidden taxes.
Ohio employing firms pay into an
unemployment compensation fund The
more they pay, the higher their expenses.
The higher their expenses, the higher
their asking prices for goods and services.
Who says raising unemployment bene-
fits won't raise taxes? Those taxes mean
higher prices for everything you buy.

Theme: Progress!

THE theme of the Societys 9th National
Quadrennial Convention at Philadelphia
should definitely be "Progressm
Nothing that may come to pass dur
ing the Convention, which is to be called
to order Monday, September 10, can hide
the fact that the Croatian Fraternal Uni
on these past four years has gone thru
a period of great progress.
It's numerical and financial strength, it's
funds, it's every function, cannot be ques-
toned Nor minimzed. But the Society can
be bettered, made stronger and safer, as can
any American institution blessed with wise
leadership and cooperative membership.
X X X
No matter what the eventual makeup of
the Croatian Fraternal Unions next Ad-
ministration, "Progress" must continue to
be the theme of our Society.
Although activity within our four. walls
is now by far greater than ever before,
more diversified than at any time in our
history, we must promote even more acti-
witty in the future and do so through our
greatest medium - the ZajedniGar.
Certainly no one knows better the
meaning of activity than do the present
Editors of the Official Organ, who, like
them or not, have done a promotional job
these past eight years which has meant
great deal in many many ways to the
CrOatian Fraternal Union.
This is not sly way of campaigning
for reelection at Philadelphia, of patting
ones self on the back, of engaging in the
art of initiating ones ego.
No. 1t is simply calling attention to the
fact that "Activity' and Progress" are the
current twin symbols of the Croatian Fra
ternal Union and that the Editors of the
zajednicar have played, and are continuing
to play, ma jor roles in their furtherance

Folk Dance Camp
|Co|orfuI Success

Stockton, Calf. - The Stn
! Annual Folk Dance Camp
held at the College of the Pa
cific, July 23rd to August 4th,
1855, was simply fantastic.
The "Jugoslaviana" staged
there in this our year to be
the hosts would have to be
seen to be believed, let alone
appreciated.
We have a lot of pictures
to prove it, but they are as
nothing compared to the spi-
rit and enthusiasm displayed
by the four hundred some
campers. My usual and only
lament is that so much of this
success was contributed by
the non-Jugoslav folk dan
GERS. Someday when this folk
dancing bug bites our people,
we in California can set ago
ing reverberations that really
would make a colossal i'm
preston.
The photographers took
quite a number of pictures at
this years encampment on
the campus of the College of
the Pacific. However, l have
not received a set as yet. Al
so to be noted was the Zajed-
nicar's article calling atten-
ton to the 1855 Camp, the
article being on the bulletin
board throughout the two
weeks.

the Jugoslav dances also in

suing article and pictures will
not do full justice to them.

Philadelphia vi

\A/E recently pointed out i'll this lengthy
w series of editorials that the 81 Dele
gates-clect to the Society's 9th National
Ouadrennial Convention at Philadelphia
this month should not be kept in session for
more than days at the most.
AS an argument, we stated that it re-
ouired but DAYS for more than 5000 dele
gates to dispose of all ends business and
social, of the 37th Annual Convention of
the Pennsylvania Department of the Amer
lean Legion, which was held in Pittsburgh
the early part of August
Some of our readers felt that one can
not compare Conventions of the CrOatian
Fraternal Union and the American Le-
gion, inasmuch as the business OF our
Society is much more complex than that
of the Legion and requires greater time,
debate and study to dispose of. We cannot
subscribe to this argument in its entirety.
Arguments like this one are as broad
as they are long. They always have been IN
almost every case where comparisons, no
matter how sincere, entered the room.
X
Since an American Legion Convention
comparison does not satisfy some of our
fellow members, let us turn to something
much closer to home for an argument.
For example, let us take the 32nd Ma
tional Convention of the First Slovak Union
of the United States and Canada, held the
latter part of August in Reading, Pa, and
attended by about the same number of Del
egates as those awaiting our Societys con-
clave in Philadelphia
Here is true comparison for the
Croatian Fraternal Union and the First
Slovak Union are sister fraternals en-
gagged i'm the same business, beset with
the same problems, saddled with the
same family fights, pettiness and bicker-
ing. They are about equal in strength
too, with our Society the stronger nu-
mericalIy and financially, of the two ac-
cording to their statistics of JAM /, 1855.
And how long did it require the Dele
gates to the recent 32nd National Conven-
ton of the First Slovak Union to transact
all their business and elect their new ad-
ministrative family?
Just four (4) days - four short but
productive days devoted to adhering strict
" to the order of business and acting in
the best interests of the Union.
Why shouldn't the same thing come to
pass at our Socety's Convention in Phil
adelphia this month? Aren't we, officials
and Delegates alike, as interested in the
welfare of the Croatian Fraternal Union as
the Slovaks are in their Unions future? Of
course all of us are.
Then let's write the philadelphia Sto-
ry'' and close the book on the happiest note
possible in no more than six (6) days. 1t
most certainly can be done.

The title to this pre-con-'
vention message to our men,
bers, in translation, means:
After the storm, the sun. But
it's implied meaning tells us
much more. I recalled this
saying as I thought over ev-
erything that has been writ
ten and said in this pre-con-
vention period, and in think
ing over what was said and
written in past pre-conven-
ton discussions.
What we 60 through be-
fore every convention is en-
tirely consistent with hap
penings in our American
public life, which take place
every year during pre-elec-
ton campaigns for city,
state and national offices.
After an exchange of op-
posing beliefs, during which
words are used which are not
exactly hand-picked, the cleo
tons pass and life resumes it's
normal course.
Membership Too Strong
The same holds true with
the Croatian Fraternal Union.
After all the storms before
the conventions, and at the
conventions, the Society con-
tinued to forge ahead with
ever stronger and steadier
steps, achieving new success
es in the wide field of it's
beneficial, cultural and hui
manitarian activities. 1t was
ever thus in the past, it is so
now on the threshold of the
Ninth Convention, and will be
after the Ninth Convention,
The Croatian Fraternal
Union and its membership
in the United States and
! Canada are too strong a
factor in our national lives
in the New World to let a
mere momentary "storm"
have detrimental effects.
In the days after the con-
vention, old Phoebus - the
sun - will shine again. clear.
er, nicer and warmer than
heretofore.
I cannot agree with those
who say that ali these pre-
| conventions discussions, dis
agreements, etc., are unneces-
sary and superfluous.
