Real Estate News

An announcement of the winners
in the contest Of the original
Northeast Multiple Listing group
was made at the summer outing of
the Northeast Round Table of the
Cleveland Real Estate Board at
the Pine Ridge Country Club.
Three statesmen tied for first
place. They are: George Knaus,
Bob Turner of Harold Trattner's
Office and Larry Allen of Paul J
Everson's office.
The contest was judged on
points for real estate sales made
from Nov. l, 1855 to April 80,
1856. The original prize was an
all-expense trip for a salesman and
his wife to Miami, Florida, but
since the three statesmen were so
close in points, the contest com
mittee decided to divide the prize
money among them.

PITTSBURGH - In November 1856 I wrote an article
for official organ under the above caption The subject
of the article the exchange charge made by the bank
for checks with which Canadian lodges paying
their monthly assessments through Agent at Toronto
Information having been received that the members
of of lodges Canada and perhaps others too
under the impression that the Croatan Fraterna Union
derived benefit from such charges and demanding the
reimbursement by the Society of all such charges paid
back for that think it necessary to reprint
at least portion of that article.
This should clarity the matter with the explanation
that the charges in question made by the bank,
that all income from such charges went to the bank and
that the charges and amounts of money involved in each
individual not the result of agreement
understanding between the Supreme Office of the Gro
attain Fraterna Union and the bank or between our
Agent in Canada and the Bank, but solely and
clearly the business of the bank in accordance with
listing bank practices and the law in Canada.
AS be from the following information, be-
ginning with November l. 1855 the bank longer makes
these exchange charges for checks with which lodges
and nests pay their monthly These charges
absorbed by the Coaan Fraernal Union by of
increasing it's bank balances Toronto by $4,000
than heretofore which amount if invested would bring
income of at least 100000 annually Therefore the Union
foregoes that gain it's Canadian assets but is believed
to be worth while in that lodges agent in Canada
and the Supreme Office relieved of special expenses
and bothersome bookkeeping, respectively.
- The article Of last November, follows:
We pleased to be able to inform members in
Canada that successful in eliminating the charges
to lodges in Canada by the bank with which the Union
does business in Toronto for checks drawn in making
mittance of their monthly assessments
Near the close of the Ninth Convention in Phia-
delphia, several Canadian delegates inquired why
bank makes special charge for checks submitted i'm
payment of assessments and if anything could be done
to these charges and if not why could not the
Society absorb these extra expenses
Immediately after the adjournment of Convention
the 69th annual meeting of the National Fraerna Congress
convened in Toronto, Canada.
had promised the convention and especially the Ca
madam delegation to inquire into the matter of exchange
charges by bank in Toronto with the view of elna-
ing them.

Serbs Hospitable Lot
The arrival in Belgrade Au-
gust 13 came in the evening
and the group took up quar-
ters in two hotels because of
the lack Of such rooms in the
city at that time of the tour
list season.
The group visited Mt. Ava
la and the Tomb of The Un-
known Soldier during the af-
ternoon of August IA. The
Tomb is the magnificent work
Of the world famous Croatian
sculptor Ivan Mestrovic, now
on the staff of Notre Dame
University in Indiana.
In the evening of the same
day the American and Cana
dian visitors were the guests
Of honor at two social affairs,
the first under the auspices
of the city's "Gradski Narod-
nj Odbor," the second with
the compliments of the "U-
druzenje iseljenika povratnika
Srbije".
The official city welcome
took place on the terrace OF
Belgrade's new Hotel Palace,
with the vice president of the
"Narodni Odbor" going all
out to make the guests feel
at home.
The vice president was
lavish in his praise for the
Croatian Fraternal Union
and thanked it's members in
America and Canada for
their moral and material
support of the peoples of
Yugoslavia during and af-
ter their trial by fire in
World War III.
If ever friendship reigned
between the Croats and Serbs,
it certainly reigned on high in
Belgrade that memorable eve
ming of August IA. .
OF Lasting Friendships
Following the grandiose re-
ception in the Hotel Palace,
the group moved on the same
evening to the quarters of the
'Udruzenje iseljenika povrat-
nika Srbije" for another Ser
bo-Croat social gathering of
the first magnitude.
Amity was the rule of
the evening as the Ameri-
cans and Canadians became
acquainted with their geni-
al Serb hosts and spoke of
lasting friendships.
Yes, lasting friendships!
A Belgrade cultural group
provided the entertainment.
The artists put on a splendid
program of national songs
and dances and were given a
standing ovation when they
finished their performance.
The writer regrets that he
did not tape record word for
word the speeches made on
that occasion. They would
have made interesting listen

Canada, particularly in those
areas where a far better un-
derstanding be tive een the
Croats and Serbs is in order.

by the old Belgrade fortress.
A city of more than 50O,-
900 people, Belgrade boasts
of many iteresting spots
well worth visiting. Among
these are Kalemegdan
Park, the Orthodox Cathe-
dral, Dositej's Lyceum, the
National Theatre, the Eth
biographical Museum, the
Municipal Museum, etc.
I! In it's neighborhood are
Topcider, a beautiful natural
park; Kosutnjak, a tree clad
hill with walks and a serpen-
tine motor road; and, of
course, historic Mt. Avala.
Belgrade, beyond question,
is one of the great cities of
Europe.
Reception At Zvornik
The group left Belgrade the
morning of August Is for Sa'
rajevo. The trip was made
via Ruma, Klenak, etc., along
the Sava River.
En- route the tourists went
through sabac and saw the
community's chemical, fruit
processing and other plants
From there the buses went to
Loznica, the home Of great
magnesite factories.
Next to Banja Koviljaca, a.
long the Drina River, and
then to Zvornik.
Waiting for the group at
Zvornik, which was sacked
during World War III, were
representatives of the "Ma-
tica" organizations of Bos-
na-Hercegovina. Time out
was taken here for refresh
! ments and the visitors were
addressed in the name of
the town and county lead
ers by Spasan Ristic.
It was difficult indeed fol-
the group to take it's leave OF
Zvornik, for the reception
here was overwhelming to say
the least and parting from the
hospitable people there was
not of the automatic "sweet
sorrow" vein.
Welcomed To Sarajevo

their brethren from America
and Canada and again hospi'
