NEW YORK. July 18.-Every
clo.sd has a silver lining. And
some good may come. too. from
even the dark chaos Of the
steel strike.
The Nation has proved in the
past it can bounce back fast
from a Gripping steel strike.
The current shutdown Will
help clear a glutted metal mar
ket for an even greater steel
demand later on
Big Gains Seen
II things happen as they
did after the last great steel
strike-the 34-day walkout in
1s56-the Nations economy
will surge back rapidly to an
even higher plateau.
Some day. perhaps, q way
will be found to regularize steel
production so there won't be
huge buildupS of supplies. and
work StoppageS which drain
them of
II seems clear that the steel
supply situation is one Of the
factors responsible for the
present Stoppage. Surveys show
there were approximately 20
million tons Of Steel-a go to
90-day Stockpile - on hand
when the strike began last
Wednesday.
Experts say that because of
overprOduction in the first half
of 1859 the industry would
have had to slow down the
mills pace anyway this Fall or
early Winter.
That would have meant
worker layoffs. The workers
would have thus lost a certain
amount Of wages. anyway. It
also. Of course, would have
meant less income to the mill
owners.
Strikers Hit
A difference for the workers
is that if laid of. they would
have been entitled to state IN
employ ment compensation
benefits. plus industry paid
supplemental unemployment
benefits. As strikers they are
barred from such payments.
A picture of how the market
was cleared Of steel in the 1856
strike is available in the gov
eminent index of industrial
production. The index stood at
l41 in June 1856, or al per
cent of production in the base
period l947-49. The strike
began in early july and the
index sagged to 128 for the
month.
When the five-week strike
ended in early August. the in
dex for that month jumped
right back. It hit 142. and
quickly climbed to new records
of l46 in September and $50
in October.

~ The Associated Press

The Air Force has abandoned
plans to develop a super-inter-
ceptor plane that would fly at
three times the speed of sound
and carry atomic-warhead
rockets.
The action was viewed as a
major step toward replacing
manned aircraft with guided
missiles as the chief weapons
Of modern war.
In announcing the cancella-
ton of plans for the. F-l0S in
terceptor yesterday, Secretary
Of Defense McElroy said, 1T is
not necessary to go beyond the
present generation of inter-
ceptors."
That leaves two other jet
fighters, the F-106 and the
F-10lB, in production.
The F-108 program would
have cost a great deal. perhaps
as much as SO billion, to get
even a few squadrons into OPP
Grafton. The money. defense
planners think, can better be
used in developing ballistic
missiles and anti-aircraft mis-
silos.
The F-108 was designed to
cover 1000 miles in half an
hour to intercept enemy bomb
ers, operating at $4,000 feet and
carrying target-seeking atomic
missiles.
About $3.50 million already
has been spent on the F-108
program. but it won't be a
total loss.
-.ortn American Aviation,
1rc.. which lost the F-108 con-
tract. still has a contract for
development Of a supersonic
bomber, the BIO. This will use
many of the basic parts of the
F-108. including the powerful
engines.
The Air Force, while pushing
its missile progam, believes
manned bombers will have
great Importance for years. and
is opposing any move to cut of
the BIO project.

Murder Case

HIROSHIMA, Japan, Sept.
"a (AP.-Farmer Sobel Haya-
kawa and his wife were muir
dered eight years ago at their
home near Iwakuni in Western
japan. They were robbed of
$44.44.
Police arrested five men
s h ortly thereafter, charged
them with the crime, and since
then the case has been in and
out of court. Judges made
money on it. defense attorneys
made money on it, and a hit
movie based on the plot
brought even more yen.
In the course of the years,
the chief defense counsel wrote
two best sellers attacking the
judges and the prosecution.
One Of the judges hit back at
the defense with two best SELL
ers of his own.
The final chapter apparently
was written yesterday when the
Hiroshima Appeals Court freed
four of the defendants on
grounds that confessions were
forced from them.
One Of the four twice had
been sentenced to death. The
other three first were SEN
fenced to life terms and got
them reduced to IL to is years
Imprisonment in the second
trial.
The only loser besides the
murdered couple was the fifth
defendant. He didn't wait for
a second trial and accepted
the life term outright.

PITTSBURGH - If we are
convinced as to the impor-
tance and necessity for es-
tablishing a solvent fund for
helping a certain number of
our young member students,
then we will find a way for
establishing and maintaining
such a fund on a permanent
basis.
Several Of our past conven-
tions evinced an interest in
such a fund. The Supreme
Board did likewise, and So,
finally, the implementing of a
long-standing wish was un-
dertaken.
The first public attempt to
solicit and collect member
ship contributions for this
purpose took place in Pitts
burgh on Sunday, February 1.
A banquet was held and the
response was gratifying. The
Lodge 4 Hall in Etna, Pa,
was filled to capacity with
young and old, including ma
ny new faces, namely those
who do not attend our af-
fairs very frequently.
Actually, this was the
first such public affair for
the benefit of the Scholar
ship Fund, and it is hoped
that the idea will move
many of our business peo-
pie to support this new ac-
ton.
The approximately 300 per-
sons present donated over

hundred dollars in pledges.
The enthusiasm was high, and
it is hoped that it will spread
to all communities where our

views for an even better fu-
ture for our Croatian Frater-
nal Union.
Slowly, but surely, our
younger members are taking
ever greater part in the ad-
ministration of our older lod-
ges, and equally slowly, yes,
but surely, are they taking
part in the Society's member
ship campaigns.
We in the administration,
together with the lodge Of
ficers and campaign workers,
are succeeding slowly to re-
move the drawbacks being
encountered in the carrying
out of our goals for progress
in the Society.
There is no problem we are
faced with which could not be
resolved through the expedi-
ents of wise and cool counsel
and exchange of thoughts be-
tween ourselves and our men,
bership for the good of the
Croatian Fraternal Union.
Schools Are Success
Our membership campaign
does not consist solely of tho
enrolment of new members,
but equally important, the en-
deavor to conserve the pres
ent membership.
That is why we have taken
action to put into effect the
decision of the last conven-
ton to instruct our lodge Of
ficers and officials, as well
as our builders, in the var1-
Gus benefits which our Soci-
ETY. offers it's members.
The success of our newest
project will require much
good will and understanding
on the part of our entire men,
bership, and particularly that
of our lodge officers and Off
cials.
Time will show that this
project will yield rich divi-
dends in the future.
In conclusion of this mes
sage in honor of all of the
Society's builders, l would
say: Keep up your perserver-
ance, and be sure that your
endeavors, along with your
names, will be recorded in let
ters of gold in the annals OF
the Croatian Fraternal Union
in the 65th year of its bene-
ficial, humanitarian and cul-
tural accomplishments in the
| United States and Canada!
ZajednicÌŒar = Fraternalist. [volume] (Allegheny, Pa.) 1894-current, 1959-02-18

1t is my opinion that Can
ada and our membership there
deserve representation in the
Society's supreme administra-
ton.
Future Is Promising
At the start of every year,
with a certain special interest
l read articles in the various
daily and weekly publications
purporting to foretell the for
tunes of the year ahead.
Every writer has his own
methods and means of fore
telling the future. Some of
these representations could
be prescribed to the Croatian
Fraternal Union and suppor-
ted by a review of our exper-
fences Of the past year.
With some of these pro-
phets, however, | cannot a.
gree, for they predict a less
favorable future than our
present statistics would indi-
cate. But l give attention to
these prophets as well, for
their views provoke me to
thinking.
l am, of course, most in
terested in the kind of fu-
ture predicted for the Gro
attain Fraternal Union. Our
experience of the past year
gives us every reason to ex-
pect with the greatest con-
fidence that this year
1850 will be a good one
for the Society.
1t could be even better, if
we succeed in removing GER
tain drawbacks and solving
certain problems which con-
spired to prevent our even
greater rise in the course OF
the past year. These draw
backs and problems are not
Identical in all sections of the

have altogether different con
ditions for successful endea
vor than our brothers in Can
ada. If it were not so, how
could we understand or jus.
tify the clearly obvious diff.
ference in campaign results
achieved in the past year?
No Problem Too Big
We in the Society's admin.
istration believe in the good
will of our members.
That belief and confidence
