225 Years On The American Newspaper Scene
USA Foreign Language Press

HURING THE decades be-
- fore and after the turn
of the twentieth century, it
was conspicuously the Ger
man, Scandinavian, Italian,
Russian, Yiddish and other
foreign language publications
that waged a vigorous cam
paign for workers compensa-
ton, the eight-hour day, So
cial security, recognition of
trade unions, and unemploy-
ment insurance.
Many readers as well as
editors had been veterans
of struggles for the same
goals i'm their countries of
origin, as for example, the
German n FOrty-Eighters,
and the Russian Jews and
other refugees from Tsar-
list oppression in the second
half of the nineteenth and
the beginning of the twen-
tieth centuries.
Peasants from Central,
Eastern and Southern Europe
and their spokesmen, the ed
itors Of the foreign language
press, confronted with semi
feudal conditions in some
American mines, foundries,
steel mills and railroads,
fought against them in the
same way they had fought
their feudal landlords back in
their home countries - by
protests, demonstrations, and
strikes, with the support of
labor legislation and the Ia
Dor union movement.
They fought the coal and
iron police in Pennsylvania
the Pinkerton strikebreakers
in Colorado, Indiana and
Minnesota, the speed-up abu-
ses of the conveyor system in
Detroit, exploitation in Chi
cago, sweatshops in New
York, etc.
Champion of Labor
In those days the English
language labor press was
quite limited, and the brunt
of the labor struggle rested
not only on the foreign Ian
guage labor press, but on the
foreign language press in
general.
Through it's pages it has
helped to educate and organ
ZajednicÌŒar = Fraternalist. [volume] (Allegheny, Pa.) 1894-current, 1959-10-14

for enrolment cost.
1t must be kept in mind
that is is not the company nor
the society that 'foots the
bill' for actually it is the new
member who pays since the
very structure of the premi-
UNI or dues schedule is so ar
ranged that the first years
income is written off as ac-
QUESTION cost.
Only with the second
years premium or dues
does the certificate or pol
icy begin accumulating re-
serve or equity considers
ton.
We want to emphasize q
gain that our CFU - you the
volunteer campaigner - has
compiled a record unequalled
by any organization. Not .
single nationality fraternal
has come near us in recruit
ing results.
Campaigns A Must
Speaking particularly 0
our Junior Order our Actuary
who has personal and profess
sional contact with dozens o(
other organizations has this
to say - "The CFU Juvenile
Department has been excep-
tionally successful. Although
the CF'U is 22nd in size accor-
ding to the insurance in force
rankings, only four societies
were able to increase the
number of juvenile certifi-
Gates by more than the CFU.
This is truly a remarkable
achievement"
To cite briefly again our
4 year enrolment record
here are the figures as sub
mitted to the insurance de-
partment: New written and
revived membership during
1955-1958 - 1904 adult
and 14,342 junior members
for a total of 23,A6.
1t is obvious therefore that
had our devoted campaigneru
not bothered to sign up any
new members in the period
under consideration we would
not now number 110,15S but
exactly 23,S46 less or aboHt
$4,000.
Our very size works against
us in this respect for the lar
ger the organization, the lar-
ger will be the inevitable an
nual losses. The grim reaper
takes no holiday and accounts
for some 100 deaths per
year. Certificate maturities,
lapses and surrender demands
account for another 5000
drop.
We are therefore faced,
each year, with an inevitable
loss of 1000. That our dedica-
ted campaigners are able not
only to recoup this annual
handicap but to produce net
gains in excess Of 1000 men,
bers per year is the wonder

but inevitable retrogression.
With all due respect to all
the many faceted functions
of the Society we have, new
ertheless, felt that entirely
too little has been written a.
bout the membership cam
paign.
1t is to be hoped that the
drive will get more coverage
from more sectors. Nothing,
but nothing, is so necessary
for the Unions progress and
very existence.
1t is a basic principle Of
business that unless the
cash register rings, even
the most powerful financial
empire will collapse.
BY the same token, even
the most virile fraternal ben
eft society is doomed to dis
sipation and disintegration if
it isn't constantly being but
tressed by new membership
applications.
Membership campaigns are,
therefore, a prime requisite.
Let there be no apathy, let
us erase all negative thinking
and evaluate the recruiting
drives correctly and ade-
quately.
Facts of CFU Life
Even at the Convention in
Detroit statements were made
which attempted to belittle
the current drive and to show
it as a liability rather than
the definite asset that it is.
Upon our arrival back in
Pittsburgh we were chagrined
to see even the official organ
of a neighboring fraternal
specifically though errone-
ously cite the CF'U as having
spent huge sums on men,
bership drives which resulted
in a net membership loss of
749 between 1853 and 1858"
This same organ has al
ways heretofore been unable
to find the necessary letters
on it's linotype machines to
spell Croatian Fraternal I'm
ion as, for instance, a few
years back when it reported
our Supreme Presidents (V.
I. Mandich) election to the
post Of President of the Pa.
Fraternal Congress by saying
"neighboring fraternal."
Once and for all, for the
benefit of members and
non members, let's put the
record straight. In the
quadrennium 1954-1958 the
CFU recorded a net men,
bership gain of 1877. We
grew from a total member
ship, on December 81, 1854
of 1O5,781 to 11O,158 on
December 81, 1858. During
that time the Society's to-
tai insurance increased by
$6,588,277.28, from S82.-
671,772.41 to $89,259,999.-
So.
It is true that the adult de-
partment did suffer a slight
loss - ATT in four years -
but the 1854 juvenile gain
still gave us that impressive
net increase of 4377. And, be-
lieve it or not, most fraternal
benefit societies would be
more than happy to be any
where near us in these Stats
tics, yes even those who have
a well developed, expensive,
professional field force.
Who Foots The Rill:
There's been talk too of
Expensive" recruiting. And,
though our Jealous volunteer
recruiting army is now receiv-
ing bigger awards than in
years gone by these awards
are still far below the COM
missions paid by some fra
ternals, not to mention COM
mercials who allocate up to

PoffSupports
Bill toOffset
Film Ruling
BY the Associated Press

A Virginia Congressman saws
he will support legislation to
offset a recent Supreme Court
decision striking down a sec
ton of the New York movie
censorship law.
Representative Poff, Repub-
lican Of Virginia, said the de-
cision inferentially repeats Vir-
ginia's censorship laws and
gives aid and comfort to the
enemies of morality in America.
The courts opinion was given
last month in connection with
a ban by New York censors on
the film Lady Chatterley's
Lover"
The opinion voided the ban
and struck down a section of
the New York law prohibiting
the showing of a film which
approvingly portrays an adul-
ferrous relationship.
Mr.. Pof said Virginia is one
of four States whose censorship
laws are "inferentially repealed"
by the decision. He added that
the decision should give oppor-
tunity for protests from ma
tional church leaders, who are
usually so eager to interject
themselves in other political
and governmental issues of the
day"

at the closing business session
Of the groups annual conven-

Mr.. Brigham, AZ, is a resi-

John A. Matthews Of Balti-

was elected commander of the
State organization.
The Legionnaires agreed to
ask the State to set up two
veterans homes and provide a
$40 million contingency fund
to aid veterans and their wi
dowS and orphans in proven
need.
Two Legion members were
presented medals by a repre-
sentative of the French gov

portionment of income for tax
purposes.

The VALC Committee max
ing the study surveyed 656 cor
poratlons as to the effect OF
the new formula and found
that three out of four would
have a tax decrease averaging
$16,l23, and one out of -four
an increase averaging $12,709
Adoption of the new formula
is desirable, said the council
because it will make our law
more nearly uniform with those
of a majority of the other
States and would thus tend to
simplify the accounting prob
lens of many large corpora
tons which do business in more
