The Play Reviewed

At the risk of depreciating the
worthy plaudits accorded to mem
bers of the Garrett County Play
house thus far this season, it can
be stated in all fairness that their
production this week of Peg o.
My Heart" is the best yet
A foundation for the outstanding
production is the lighthearted plot,
which sees the snooty Chichester
family reluctantly and spitefully
bringing a lower-class relative.
Peg, into their home along with a
thousand pounds, both at the stipu-
lation of a deceased uncle. The
family, having recently been ruined
in bank failure, wants the money
but not Peg, who is treated like a
"clod of earth" OF course. every
thing turns out all right, or the plot
wouldn't be "lighthearted What

By sheer acting ability, Leonard

THE GREAT
GAME OF
POLITICS

Adlai Will Find A WAY

Adlai Will Find A Way
Not since his primary victories in
Florida and California has there
been much real doubt of Mr.. Adlai
StevensOn's denomination for Presi-
dent by the Democratic convention
in Chicago, which will meet in a
couple Of weeks Possibly the nomi-
nation may come on the first bal
lot; almost certainly on the second.
Considering this it is interesting to
note the absence of any particular
increase of enthusiasm for him
among the voters as a whole COM
pared to 1852
There are a number of reasons
for this. He will, of course, have the
support of his chief nomination ri
walls, to wit, Governor Hartman,
Senator Kefauver and Senator
Symington. Also, eX-President Tru-
man will be more or less hotly be-
hind him. They will advocate his
election, as they would that of any
Democrat nominated and not be-
cause of any individual personal or
political devotion to him They are
for him because it is essential for
them to maintain their party regu-
larity and not because they either
want him to or believe he is going
to win On the contrary most of
the leading Democratic politicians
Excepting always the egg-headed
group of journalists, labor bosses
and far left New and Fair Dealers
who so VociferOusly boosted him
in 1882 feel that Mr.. Stevenson
has not added an ounce to his
weight as a candidate in the last
four years.
OF course, he needs a good deal
more than that and, with luck, he
might get it. Alert and plausible,
he may be able to solve some of the
more difficult problems of his party
in the framing of the so-called
civil rights" plank in the party
platform. On this issue which,
emotionally and politically, is by
far the' most vital with which the
convention will have to deal, the
party danger is obvious. For sixteen
years, the Democratic management
cynically and successfully, has
played both ends against the mid
die. BY the exercise of an extra
ordinary degree of hypocrisy and
deceit it has managed to gain the
vote of the Negroes in some ten or
twelve North and border states and
at the same time hold the support
of the white Democrats of the
South.
Without wholehearted support OF
these two great voting groups no
Democrat would stand a chance OF
winning the presidency this time
1t is not denied that the Democrats
lost votes among both of these
groups in 1850 and 1852. This ac-
counts for the strenuous efforts
now being made by Democratic
leaders to hold them intact Last
week a meeting of some 60-odd
Democratic Negro leaders" was
held in Chicago at which President
Eisenhower was denounced for
lack of leadership" in enforcing the
Supreme Courts anti-segregation
decision in the public schools They
also announced six or seven steps
which they insisted the Federal
Government must take-or must
pledge itself to take. While this
announcement was aimed against
Mr.. Eisenhower, it really appalled,
the Democrats and is particularly
annoying to the close friends of Mr.
Stevenson who thought the way ou'
for him would be simple approVa

And now we have another

most happy to do SO.
In the issue of January II,
1856, the Zajednicar carried
an article penned by us in
which we proudly announced
the year-end statistics of the
Junior Order.
We stated there that those
statistics were unofficial
since they had been hastily
computed in order to have
some idea of the departments
standing. We stated then that

stood at a new all time high

$4,000 Error Corrected
Now to digress from the
campaign results, but still on
the other very important fa-
Gets of the drive, we want to
refer to our last weeks arti-
Gle in the Zajednicar. In it we
dealt with our new CSC Term
certificate.
In that description Of this
peerless new item of CFU in
surance wares we pointed out
that a full Is years of NOR
tuary protection, now at the
full $500 figure, costs a to-
tai of $54.0O.
We further emphasized
that various credits and
waivers amounting to $29
actually reduced that to a
net cost of just $25 or in
terms of monthly pay
ulents averaging an insig-
nificant 1112 cents.
Through an error in print
ing the net cost was quoted
as $29 when it should have
been just $25. We are most
happy to call attention to that
mistake.
Monthly Dues Unchanged
Now while on the subject
of our new Term contract we
want to make another point
crystal clear.
That is the fact that there
has absolutely been NO in
crease in the monthly dues.
The Term dues remain at Is
cents per month. Of this a.
mount 20 cents goes to head
quarters and 5 cents remains
with the Nest for it's own ex-
penses.
We've received a number
of inquiries from Mama
gers, and others, who want
to know whether or not the
total monthly dues have
been raised to 80 cents. The
new Term certificate itself
states that the monthly
dues are rs cents.
So it's understood, then
that the wonderful new CFT
i, Term Certificate, which guar
antees a full $500 death ben
, eft right from age SIX
months and one day, remains
at the old cost of 25 cents
