3. The Tesla Wireless
System. This system COM
prises a number Of i'm
provements and is the only
means known for trans
hitting economically cleo
trical energy to a distance
without wires. Careful
tests and measurements in
connection with an expert
mental station of great ac-
tivity, erected by DR.. Tes-
la in Colorado, have dem
onstrated that power in
any desired amount can be
conveyed, clear around the
globe if necessary, with a
loss not exceeding a small
percentage.
A Wonderful Discovery
4. The Art of Individual
izatiOn. This invention of
DR.. Tesla is to primitive
tuning what refined lam
guage is to unarticulated
expression.
1t makes possible the
transmission of signals or
messages absolutely secret
and exclusive both in the
active and passive aspect,
that is, mountaineering as
well as non-interferable.
Each signal is like an indi-
vidual of unmistakeable
identity and there is vir-
tually no limit to the num-
Der of stations or instru-
ments which can be stimuli
taneously operated without
the slightest mutual dis
turbance.
5. The Terrestrial Sta
tionary Waves. This Won
derful discovery, popularity
explained, means that the
Earth is responsive to cleo
trical vibrations Of definite
pitch just as a tuning to
certain waves of sound.
These particular electro
cal vibrations, capable of
powerfully exciting thu
globe, lend themselves to
innumerable uses of great
Importance numerically
and in many other re-
spects
The worlds y t m"
could be put into operation
in nine months and is
practical ito attain electro
cal activities up to ten mil
lion horsepower and it is
designated to serve for as
many technical achieve
ments as are possible with
out due expense"

the common people who save their money,
who buy life insurance with the premiums
invested in the wealth of their country, or
invited to share in ownership by purchas-

them? The fact is that the men who stand
out in front Of industry, business and bank

ZajednicÌŒar = Fraternalist. [volume] (Allegheny, Pa.) 1894-current, 1956-06-06
FRATERkALISM

raternalis SIN is not
merely a phrase. It is not
merely an insurance insti-
tuition or means of teaching
morals and ethics. 1t is not
a religious institution. 1t is
not simply a place for ma
tionalistic gatherings or a
means of entertainment. It
is all of these combined and
more.
Fraternity Is another
word for brotherhood. Bro
therhood implies a sympa-
thetic understanding of a.
Mothers position and prob
lens, a desire to share an
others burdens and render
assistance as occasions a.
rise.
These qualities possessed
. by our fraternal benefit So
%cieties have poured into the
homes of members land Of
ten to those not members)
many millions of dollars in
the way of food, clothing,
housing and heat, not to
mention the other millions
put into homes where sick
ness has impoverished the
family and where death
has taken the b~readwinner.
Our certificates furnish fl
nancial protection and our
lodges inspire our members
to good deeds.
Fraternalists meet in
their lodge rooms and
through close association
the ties of friendship are
strengthened and people
are brought happily to-
gether who would never
have known each other by
any other means.
People Of all nationalistic
origins, of all religious
faiths, of all political
creeds, and various occu-
pations, are thus brought
together in our fraternal
benefit societies and see
there exemplified the prin-
ciples, which are taught in
every society in our sys-
tenn. of God, home and
country.
Beginning with our ju-
venile branches these prin-
ciples are taught, and con-
tinued in our senior lodges
- thus making better citi-
zens of our country and
better homes for the flu
ture. That's Fraternalism!

SteD Forward

complete indeed is our day when we hear
~ or read that our people step forward
to meet on common grounds and do so as
understanding brothers and sisters.
Thus it was that we came to cheer last
week the news that our people on the Nj
agara, New York, Frontier have agreed to
sponsor a "Croatian Day" on August 19,
1856, in an about effort to reunite our fell
low Croatians there in the Spirit Of Broth
erhood
To prove that nothing is impossible, the
day will be held under the auspices of the
Buffalo and Lackawanna Lodges of the
Croatian Fraternal Union and the Croatian
Catholic Union and the independent st.
Jerome's Society of Niagara Falls, a sure
formula for success.
If OUR people on the Niagara Frontier
can cast aside their differences, why can
not we ask that others follow suit through
out the United States?
Why wouldn't our people in Canada
agree to cooperate in like vein?
If the Croats on the Niagara Frontier
can cross organizational lines forget
their deep rooted preference for either the
GU, the ecu or the st. Jerome's Society
- for the sake of unity, why can't it be
done elsewhere? For no reason at all.
BY nature, we Croats are a proud people.
And justly so. But we are a funny people"
as well; funny to the point that in show
mo disresnect for one another we Inevitably
lower our prestige on the American scene.
The time has come for Americans and
Canadians Of Croatian descent to unite, and
not to degrade each other. Or arc we too big
to meet on such a common on such a very
simple level?
God forbid that such a false bigness
should ever overwhelm us and relegate us
to oblivion as a once proud nationality
which fell apart at the seams of mankind,

Of course not not by the widest

Yet there are some who would have the
naive believe that the Croatian Fraternal

slavia in August, 1856, will come to be ex-
plotted once it reaches the borders of that
land in Southern Europe.

what new wonders could
be experimentally discov-
cred and established.
So, in the spring of 1890,
h went to Colorado
Springs, Colorado, where
he erected his wireless and
broadcasting plant. A pic
ture of this plant was pub
lished on these pages with
an earlier article dealing
with the life of DR.. Tesla.
In Colorado Springs
DIR. Tesla made many
improvements and re-
finements (which made
it possible to create cur
rents of any tension that
may be desired"
DR.. Tesla described in
detail his findings in the
Century Magazine" Of
June 1900, exactly Sc years
ago this month.
Magnifying Transmitter
In describing his famous
M a flying T~ransmitter,
DR.. Tesla said:
1.-THE Magnifying Trans
mitter is a resonant Trans
former with a secondary
in which the parts, charged
to a high potential, are of
considerable area and ar
ranged in space along ideal
developing surface of very
large radii of curvature,
and at proper distances
from one another thereby
insuring a small electric
surface density everywhere
so that no leak can occur
even if the conductor is
bare.
ut is suitable for any
frequency, for a few to
many thousands of cy-
Giles per second, and can
be used in the produc-
ton Of currents of tre-
