LONDON. Mar. % (P).-The
Soviet Union has proposed a new
plan for world disarmament
emitting the usual Communist
demand for remuneration Of
atomic weapons.
Emphasizing cuts in conven-
tional arms. the Soviet proposal
was reported to have urged only
"a ban or strict control on atomic
tests. Demands for outlawine
of nuclear weapons-immediately
or eventually-had been high on
the Russian proposal list dur
ing previous disarmament nego-

To some Western observers

Elective leader of the party,

mittee."
The campaign to destroy the
Stain myth was touched off by
Communist Party boss Nikita
Khrushchev last month in a
secret address to the party's goth
congress.
The gist of his remarks was
circulated in a letter by the
Central Committee and by word
of mouth to Communist groups
i'm Russia and abroad. The
program to destroy the myth of
Stalin's infallibility had become
generally known outside Russia.
Public attacks on the "cult of
the individual" also have been
frequent.
First Public Expression
But Pravda's broadside was
the first public expression at
home of the campaign against
Stain personally. The news
paper had this to say of the
Communist hierarchy's decision
on the late dictator:
Giving Stain all the credit
due him, soberly evaluating the
big role he played in the revolu-
ton and the establishment of
socialism, the Communist Party
at the same time decided to
liquidate the cult of the indi-
vidual so as to re-estab bliSh
Lenin's principles and norms of
life in government work and to
establish the best conditions for
the construction Of COM
muniSm.
The party organ made it clear
that the campaign to cut down
Stain had just begun.
ITO eliminate the vestiges and
of the cult of the indi-
vidual from our life" Pravda
said, 1T is necessary to develop
a large-scale explanatory cam
paign."
Pravda charged that Soviet
historical and military films ARE
filled primarily with exaggera-
tions of Stains role"
War movies and art and lit

as an indication that all is quie
in the two southern republic
and that the Soviet government
feels it has nothing to hide there
Mr.. Erlander's trip was an
nounced less than IL hours atte
the Communist Party orgal
Pravda published the first broad
scale Soviet newspaper denun
citation of Stain. 1t said hi
drive for glory took "monStrou
forms" which harmed the Com
munist cause.
12-Column Article
In a 7,000-word article spreat
over IL columns, the newspaper
brought home to the general Rus
sian public for the first time thu
new Soviet leadership's campaign
to chop down Stalin's historica
stature.
Pravda paid tribute to Stalini
work in the first years aftel
Lenin's death.
But then certain features ant
qualities began gradually to ap'
pear in Stains practice O.
leadership which later developed
into the cult of the individual,
Pravda charged.

serious harm to the cause"
Opening Gun in Campaign
tThe Pravda article appeared
only the opening gun in a news
paper campaign against Stain.

sensational charges which re-
ports reaching the West have

mand has leveled against their

ZajednicÌŒar = Fraternalist. [volume] (Allegheny, Pa.) 1894-current, 1956-11-07

We, in the Society's admin
istration, are frequently call
ed before them to explain de-
cisions made two or three
years earlier. I particularly
we'll remember the first exam
ination of our organization af-
ter assuming the duties of
the Supreme President early
in 1948.
Two state examiners spent
twelve days reading the Min
utes of the Supreme Board
and the Minutes Of the Sc
venth Convention. They re-
marked, in jest, that they
were reading a novel, and not
Minutes of meetings of a fra
ternal organization as they
should have been. +
"We are not concerned,
nor should it be officially
published in the Minutes,
what anybody said on a
particular subject; we only
want to see the motion,
explanation of the motion,
the voting for or against,
and the results of the
vote"
THAT does not mean," they
said, "that each individual
member of the Board, or del
egate to the convention, can
not express everything he
has to say on the subject up
for discussion, but it is not
necessary that every word
spoken be recorded in the
Minutes, and especially not if
those Minutes must be pub
lished."
In so far as possible, we
complied with that recon-
mendation, and will continue
to do so in the future.
Majority Still Rules
I write this to avoid our
members from getting the i'm
preston from reading the
Minutes Of our sessions that
our meetings are boring, or
| that our officers are not suf-
ZajednicÌŒar = Fraternalist. [volume] (Allegheny, Pa.) 1894-current, 1956-11-07

ficiently interested in the SUBJ
ject up for discussion.
At every session of the su-
preme Board, and even at
some meetings of the Execu-
tive Board, there frequently
occur sharp exchanges of
opinion before a final decision
is reached by the vote of the
majority. A decision made by
a majority vote means and
signifies just as much as
though it was a unanimous
decision, for all members of
the Board, as well as the en-
tire membership, must sub
nit to such a decision.
During our recent meet
ings, we had one matter up
for discussion for almost
an entire afternoon, and
after the final vote the
Board member who was op-
posed to the motion, said:
II fought against this mo-
ton, but now that it is a.
dopted by the majority of
this Board, l am obliged to
defend and promote it at all
times"
That is at it should be a.
mong our members, as well.
Every decision of the Su-
preme Board at all of it's ses-
sions, including this most re-
cent one, was adopted for the
reason that the majority -
and in some cases the entire
Board - held that it was for
the good of the organization.
By mutual agreement, ev-
erything that was said that
could possibly be construed
as an offense, to even the
smallest part of the member
ship of the Croatian Frater-
nal Union, was deleted from
the Minutes.
Differences Forgotten
It is a fact which none can
dispute that the members of
the present administration
were 1855 CFU Convention
candidates on two divergent
states; they were, therefore,
members of two different
groups at that Convention.
1t pleases me to estab-
lish, and / believe it will
please our members as
ZajednicÌŒar = Fraternalist. [volume] (Allegheny, Pa.) 1894-current, 1956-11-07

much, that the members of
the Supreme Administra-
ton took to heart and are
keeping in mind my state
ment in my closing remarks
at the adjournment of the
1855 Convention, by which
/ advised the newly-elected
Supreme Officers and Off
cials to forget that they
were candidates from diff
ferent groups.
I further stated that from
now on, they represent the
interests of the entire men,
bership, and by their harmo-
NOUS work must watch,
guard and strengthen the
Croatian Fraternal Union in
all places and at all times,
because it represents what
is. the greatest, finest and
richest that the Croatian i'm
migrant, far from his native
soil, created by his sacrifices
and efforts for over sixty
years."
Harmony, Understanding
In that same spirit, we
would that our members care
fully read the Minutes of the
meetings of the Supreme
Board, and just as carefully
follow and read the Minutes
of the meetings of the Ex-
ecutive Board and the FL
nance Committee.
We of the administration
desire harmony, fraternal
understanding, and, above
all, a respect of the feel
ings and. beliefs of every
individual member of the
Society.
We would advise that this
likewise be the slogan follow
ed by our lodge officers and
by our membership in gen.
eral, which will enable us to
achieve even greater success
in the strengthening of the
ranks of the Croatian Fra
ternal Union with new MEM
bership, the growth of the
Society's assets, and the car
rying out of the tasks and
duties for which it was estab-
lished, and is still today so
necessary to all of us.
ZajednicÌŒar = Fraternalist. [volume] (Allegheny, Pa.) 1894-current, 1956-11-07

organization and the member
ship.
Our members will notice, as
they had opportunity to see
heretofore, and particularly
in the past nine years, that
the Minutes of sessions of the
Supreme Board, as well as
those of the Executive Board,
are much briefer than was
the custom in former years.
Today, the Minutes con-
tain every subject brought
up for discussion, the mo-
ton made, mention of the
names of those who took
part i'm the discussion for
or against the motion, and
the result of the vote
thereon.
The speeches of the indi-
vidual officers or officials on
the subject under discussion
are not in toto recorded in the
Minutes, as was customary at
one time.
Here and there in the Min
utes published today, we will
find a verbatim quotation Of
a particular member of the
Board, but that is done mere
ly to clarity the argument for
or against a motion.
Examiners Amazed Lot
The Minutes of all meetings
of the Supreme Board, Ex-
ecutive Board, and the FL
nance Committee, are bound
in separate books in the Gro
attain and English languages.
When state examiners
come to examine the organi-
zation's business once in three
years, they carefully exam
inc all Minutes of all meet
ings, in order to ascertain to
their own satisfaction that all
decisions made are, first, in
conformity with the bylaws
of the Croatian Fraternal
Union, and second if they are
in accordance with the spirit
of the state laws governing
fraternal organizations.
