There had been doubt as to

WITH THE publication of this missive
from Sarajey we cannot help but recall
the Aug. Sept, 1856, visit Of 130 American
and Canadian members of the Society to
Iugoslavia.
They the letter and that visit over
seas - have something in common.
In our opinion, they spotlight the Gro
attain Fraternal Union as the foremost pro-
pagator Of American propaganda in Yugo-
slavia. Nothing more, nothing less.
Or, to put it another way, the Society
has been sowing the same seeds of good

Croat Played Role

1855.
\ t 1870 on the morning of
~ January 10, 1901, on a
low hillock called Spindletop
Just outside Beaumont, Texas,
gas rumbled out of it's pre-
historic tomb, shot up a black
plume of petroleum and
launched the oil age.
The heavy oil spouted
200 feet into the air in the
greatest gusher Americans
had ever seen. Men saddled
their horses and rode off,
shouting: "Oil, oil on the
hill"
AS one of the men passed
3S-year-old Pattillo Higgins,
he reined in, yelled: People
are saying you're the wisest
man on earth. He'll, amt you
surprised?" mot exactly"
replied Higgins.
He'd Drink Every Gallon
Few had listened to Patillo
Higgins theory that Spindle
tops escaping gas and foul
water indicated oil. The ex-
pcrts had scoffed in a body.
AT the time, Americas
SO million annual barrels
of oil came from the east,
mainly Pennsylvania.
John Archbold, one of the
lords of John D. Rockefeller's
Standard Oil monopoly, had
| snorted that he would drink
every gallon Of oil produced
west of the Mississippi.
Calvin Payne. Standards S
production genius, conver-
SAINT with fields from Baku to
Borneo, had come to Spindle
top and warned: you will
never find oil here The u.
S. Geological Survey agreed
with Standards Calvin Payne.
Anthony Lucas Responds
Ignorant men in high pla-
ces," snorted Higgins, as he
kept on looking.
In 1892, promising "mllll-
ons,' he persuaded three fell
low Beaumonters to back
him, but all he returned was
three dry Spindletop holes.
He became the town bore.
Beaumont residents sneering-
lv called him the million
aire.'
Desperate for a believer,
Higgins advertised in a New
York trade journal the glow
ing promise Of oil, gas and
sulpher in Spindletop, and
flushed one reply. 1t was
enough.
Dalmatian-born (Croa-
tian) Anthony Lucas, one
time Austrian naval lieu
tenant who came to the U.
S. to visit and stayed on to
work as a mining engineer,
agreed to drill for oil on
Spindletop.
That was turning point ir
the history Of the U. S. econ

gusher transformed the y. S
oil business from a tight lit
tie enterprise hobbled by the

Good Book (F,cclesastas XI. ~. So has
the Croatian Fraternal Union believed
throughout its history, annals replete with
magnificent deeds.
So must the Soccty's future Adminis-
trations believe if this. the greatest organi-

is to grow and to prosper
TODAY, ON Page :, we bring classic
example Of what the Croatian Fraternal
Union means to others in this case the
peoples Of Yugoslavia at large.
1t is letter from two men Of the cloth
residing in historic Sara ievo, Bosnia -Herce-

Rector of the Seminary, and Fra Bono Os-
tojic, Supreme President of the Institute
Of Catholic Priests Dobri Pastir.
We suggest that every American and
Canadian born member Of the Croatian Fra
ternal Union read this letter, for in it is
proof positive of the Socety's belief in the
Brotherhood of Man and tribute to it's
standing on the world scene.
And having read it, let no man under
estimate the Societys greatness.
THE BOOK project referred to in this
letter was undertaken by the Croatian Fra
ternal Union in 1855 and completed some
months later with the cooperation Of the
Federal Governments United States Infor-
nation Agency (USIA.
The project was prodigious one, but
we'll worth it in the long run.
Entailcd was the painstaking collection,
through the courtesy of the Pittsburgh
Board Of Education, of 5000 copies of two
now superseded but still valuable school
textbooks: THE United States in The Mod
ern World" and Geography of American
Peoples"
To this the Society added purchase Of
1000 volumes of collegiate text books,

sizes and two sets of the National Geogra-

THE TRUTH Of the matter is that old

THE TRUTH of the matter is that old
country politicians were dime dozen at
the Croatian Fraternal Unions 1947, 1851,
and 1855 National Conventions.
The truth is that circa 1947-1951 poll
tical smears against the Society and its
officials were hurled from all sides in an
abortive attempt to bring it to the brink of
1unation and discredit it forever and pro-
verbal day.
The truth is that as late as 1855 two
non-citizens of the United States tried to
meddle behind the scenes with Delegates
to the Society's 9th National Convention.
Both were repudiated in toto.
The truth is = like it or not, take it or
leave it = that there is coterie of Croat
"Dee-Pees" who would, if they could, wreck
the Croatian Fraterna Union.
And our Mid-Western "advisors' know
50 in spite of their writings to the contrary
and "pious' concern for the Society.
