SUPREME PRESIDENT bro. V. l

Mandich has an article pertaining to these
Scholarship Awards on page Z of this issue.
Inasmuch as he has covered the subject
in a thorough manner, we will not go into
what the Supreme President has to say re-
garding these twenty Scholarships.
But we would ask our members at large,
particularly those whose IONS and-or
daughters have aspirations to enter a col
lege or a university, to remember that pro-
badly many more than twenty will apply
for these Awards.
Not all will qualify for the aid in the
end. Some, of necessity, will have to fall by
the wayside and apply anew for help the
next time around - in 1857.
If, as they say, you can't get blood out
of a turnip, then you can only get 20
Scholarships out of as many Awards.
But try and convince those of as much
who won't qualify this year.

Debunk Claimed Cures

SldltltCu Su1CS
The Food and Drug Ad-
ministration has conducted
a thorough and long-con-
tinuing investigation Of
Hoxsey's treatment.
His claimed cures have
been extensively studied
and the Food and Drug
Administration has not
found a single verified
cure of internal cancer
effected by the Hoxsey
treatment.
In addition, the National
Cancer Institute Of the
I'm t Stateses Public
Health Service has re-
viewed case histories SUBJ
mitted by Hoxsey and adj
vised him that the cases
provided no scientific evil
dence that the Hoxsey
treatment has any value in
the treatment of internal
cancer.
Only Cures For Cancer
On October 26, 1858,
Harry M. Hoxsey, the Gil
mic, and all persons in &C.
tive concert with him were
enjoined by the United
States District Court at
Dallas, Texas, from ship
ping their worthless cancer
me d S in interstate
commerce with labelling
representing, sug costing,
or implying that the pro-
ducts are effective in the
treatment of any type of
internal cancer.
While the Government
intends to prosecute viola
tons of the injunction, this
warning is necessary for
the immediate protection
Of cancer victims who may
be planning to take the
Hoxsey treatment.
Those afflicted with
cancer are warned not to
be misled by the false
promise that the Hoxsey
cancer treatment will
cure or alleviate their
condition. Cancer can be
cured only through sur
gerry or radiation.
Death from cancer is
inevitable when cancer pa
tients fail to obtain proper
medical treatment because
of the lure of a painless
cure without the use of
surgery, x-ray, or radium"
as claimed by Hoxsey.

Traffic Court.
But this is not the entire story OF an
immigrant who came to America many,
many years ago and set out to make Tor
himself a name to be respected everywhere.
BRO. LUCAS was born January 2, 1880,
In Smislak, SEVERN, Verbovsko, Croatia
and became a member July q, 1909, OF
what is today the Croatian Fraternal Union.
Settling years ago in Calumet, Mich,
he graduated from the University of Mich
igan Law School in 1906 and in 1908 was
elected as a member of the Michigan Leg
islature from what was in those days the
wealthiest legislative district in the State.
He represented more millions than any
member of the lower house for the simple
reason that the powerful Calumet and He
cia Copper Mines happened to be located
in his district.
Bro. Lucas fought for the working man
during his days in the Michigan Legislature
and he became known throughout the State
as one of the outstanding liberals of that
important political body.
He was co-introducer of Michigan's pre-
sent Compensation Law; co-author and
sponsor of the election of Mine Inspector
Law and Railroad Rate Law; introducer
of an S-Hour Work Law, and staunch sup
porter of Women Suffrage.
X X
EnV 4 nXXUNC h;s Sory,oo fu tho State
Legislature, bro. Lucas was thrice elected
Prosecuting Attorney District Attorney
of Houghton County, Michigan.
Houghton County in those days was Sec
ond in wealth and third in population in
Michigan, two factors which helped make
bro. Lucas the second highest salaried
Prosecutor in the State.
Bro. Lucas was the Prosecuting Attor-
ney during the great copper strike of 1913,
when some $4,000 workers struck to win
an 8-hour day, a raise in wages and recog-
milton of their union. Strikers and n~on-stri-
kers alike committed many crimes during
that historic struggle.
AS Prosecuting Attorney, bro. Lucas
prosecuted all charged with committing
crimes and he helped convict five of the
sheriff's deputies and imported guards
who were charged with killing three stri-
kers. He also sent to prison others charged
with assaulting or beating strikers.
lie was twice reelected by large MAORI
ties, after that strike, by a grateful citizen
ry which appreciated his stand for indie
pendence and equal justice.
Bro. Lucas left Calumet for Pittsburgh
in 1921 as one of the many economic victims
of the permanent closing Of the huge copper
mines. Some 75fc of the people of Calumet
were forced to leave the town in those days
and seek employment elsewhere in Michigan
and other States.
In the 35 years he has been in Pitts
burgh bro. Lucas record as a lawyer, Gen
eral Counsel of the Croatian Fraternal
Union and public official compares favor
ably with his accomplishments years ago
in the State Of Michigan.
But no editorial can do justice to this
record. 1t must be dealt with in article form
- something we will get to in an early
issue of the Zajednicar.
In the meantime, and in behalf of his
los, 900 fellow GU members in the United
States Of America and Dominion of Canada,
we congratulate bro. Lucas on this momen-

American Patriot
Dr.. kikoIa Tesla
BY Adam Sudetic
Member, Lodge $40

the late DR.. Nikola Tesla
first came to America in
1884, almost II years ago,
he ran into the same strange
impressions which engulf all
who visit another country
for the first time.
After being here for a
TIME, DR.. Tesla said he left
behind him "a world Of
dreams" and came to "a
world Of realities" What he
left behind was beautiful
artistic and fascinating in
every way" and what he
found here was "machined,
rough and unattractive."
Even the stick of a po-
liceman appeared to him
as "a big log"
Five years later he went
abroad and coming back he
was convinced that America
even at that time lis a hum
dred years ahead of Eur
ope." He never changed his
opinion in this matter.
Cherished Citizenship
Whenever DR.. Tesla In
vented something he felt
would serve the best inter-
ests of his beloved America
he went direct to Govern
ment officials and placed it
at their disposal.
It was in this manner that
he offered his powerful
Magnifying Transmitter to
the Nation.
During World War l he
worked for the Govern
ment "at q sacrifice on his
several inventions relating
to aerial navigations, ship
propulsions and wireless
transmissions."
He valued his American
citizenship to such a degree
that he always kept his citi-
zenship papers in a safe,
whereas his orders, diplo-
mas, degrees, gold medals
and other citations were
packed away in old trunks.
Why Was Tower Raced?
When his famous Tower
was demolished in 1917, a
report was widely circulated
that "the structure was de-
molished by the Govern
ment" due to war conditions.
DR.. Tesla contradicted
this by stating that if the
report had foundations he
would have gotten a large
sum of money as a refund,
which he expended on the
structure"
And he added: "My
project was retarded by
laws of nature. The world
was not prepared for it.
1t was too far ahead of
time. But the same laws
will prevail in the end and
make it a triumphant
success"
He also contradicted ru-
mors that financier J. Pier
pont Morgan chad interest
with him in business" He
merely said that "Mr. Nor
gan has assisted many other
pioneers" The only reason
Mr.. Morgan helped DR.. Tes-
la was because "he had con-
fidence and complete faith in
his ability to ultimately
achieve what he had set out
to do"
An American Patriot
Since DR.. Tesla never
cared for glory, nor for
wealth, he most certainly
must be held up as an ideal
example of a great Amer.
lean patriot.
1t may take a few years
more for Americans to
understand the unselfish

Throwing Money Away
The Hoxsey treatment

Por t a Pennsylvania.
The patient at Dallas is

Cure Or Hoax?

T he Official Organ of the Croatian Fra
l ternal Union has for years cooperated
with the Federal Government in publicizing
anything pertaining to the welfare of the
American people.
1t is doing as much again in this issue
by calling the attention of the membership
of the Society to the United States Govern
ment's public warning against the usage of
the Hoxsey treatment for internal cancer.
This treatment, distributed by the Hox-
sey Cancer Clinics at Portage, Pa, and
Dallas, Texas, is held by the Governments
Food and Drug Administration to be worth
less and may be dangerous to those who
rely upon it instead of obtaining competent
medical treatment in their neighborhood.
n X X
WE HAVE no way of knowing whether
any member of the Croatian Fraternal Uni
on has turned to the Hoxsey treatment"
for internal cancer, a terrible disease.
Yet even if no member has been misled
by the false promise that a cure in this
manner is possible, we still feel that the
Governments warning against the Hoxsey
TREATMENT should be sounded on these
pages time and again.
Gullibility knows no bounds and makes
fools of many educated men and women
who resort to any means when faced with
a health problem of grave proportions.
The average member of the Croatian
F'raternal Union suffering from internal
cancer is not above gullibility hence our
appeal to these victims to place their trust
in their family doctor and not clinics which
are being exposed for what they are, pure
and simple public frauds.
If the Government of the United States
condemns as worthless this particular treat
ment, then why should any sensible person
turn to it - even in desperation?

Anthropology, the study of

DR.. Schwidetsky pointed out
that none of these methods have
succeeded in discriminating 100
percent between a right" and
wrong father when tested upon
more than 100 families where
there was no question about the
father.
The limits of false diagnosis
can be set, however, and careful
analysis could avoid false dag
nosis with sufficient accuracy to
give the method practical appli-
cation, she said.
The research has involved find
ing inherited traits suitable for
such tests. These factors include
palm lines, hair growth on the
middle part of the bsclS of the
third finger, and hair streams on
the neck.

termine more precisely the nor
bal variation in inheritance of
various traits. The mathematical
formulas take account of such
variations.

Eisenhower Hit for Leadership
Lack on Dese9regation Riots

DENVER, Col President Eli
senhower is severely criticized by
NAACP Executive Secretary Roy
Wilkens for failure TO exercise
strong leadership for law and Or
der in the Tennessee and Texas
school indignation riots, in the
advance text of speech schedul-
ed for delivery by Mr.. Wilkins
here last week.
The NAACP official is to adj
dress some $4,000 delegates to the
National Baptist Convention, Inc,
in this city.
Commenting on yesterdays Pre-
sidential press conference, the
wilkins speech says that Eisen-
hover "did not contribute very
much to the cause of law and
order. In the same sentence he
critized both those who use vi
olence to defy the law and those
who ask compliance with the
We do not believe there is any
middle ground be tween law and
defiance of law"
The speech refers to the Presl-
dent as "the one man who, with
out favoring your child or mine,
and without interfering with the
rights of the states could set a
moral tone for the nation in this
sorry mess"
Recalling events of the past
several days, Mr.. wilkins in his
address says further of the Presi-
dent:
"The newspapers, radio and
television are full of riot accounts
in his own land. Governors have
called out troops. Men have been
hung in feffigy. A GuardSman has
been stabbed. All the nation is
men making war upon children
and upon the Supreme Court of
the United States, upon the bed
rock of the constitutional protec-
ton of every citizen-and from
the White House hardly a word.
cit is incredible, but true, that
the President of the United States
is assuming a neutral position in
a contest in which lawlesinesS
is running riot
Actions of Shivers Decried
The Wilkins speech also de-
cries actions of Texas Governor
Allan ShiverS in connection with
school indignation disturbances at
Mansfield, Texas and asserts that
the governor "did not measure up
to the demands of his office. He
did send in Texas Rangers, but he
instructed them to move out any
Negro child who applied to the
Mansfield high school"
The NAACP official reserves his
praises for Tennessee Governor
Frank Clement, the state govern
ment ofo Tennessee, and "the re-
sponSible citizens of Clinton
watching in shocked horror at
Tenn" noting that "the mob was
halted and the children are con-
tinuing in school,"
The Clinton situation, the Will
kins' speech declares, illustrates
the fact that where the people in
charge are firm in their support of
law and order the hoodlumS can
be beaten. More than 100 Gin
ton white citizens were sworn in
as deputies to keep the peace. The
National Guard, sent by the gov
ernor to maintain order, did it's
job and carried out the will of the
townspeople."
The past weeks school integra-
ton disturbances are termed by
Mr.. Wilkins, "the shameful
spectacle of mobs of grown men
gathering to bar a dozen children
by physical force from attending
school,"
Segregation a Moral Problem
At another point in the speech
text, the NAACP official calls
