NAS AVAZUJI NA DOPIS tajemnika fl tietiho distriktu, bratra Ludvy 0. Hogka, kterYao dopis je uvetejnen na jinem miste dne gniho eisla. A zaroven navazuji na tee ptedsecly tadu Cechcslovan Oslo 40 v Hilije, bratra Jos. Rube ge, kterou pronesl pied dvema lety, kdy2 se konala prvni paradna, schUze, zda bylo by zahodno, aby byly v nag i Jednote utvoteny distrikty.

Dopis bratra Hog ka tee bratra Rubeg e jdou za jednim cilem—vzbuditi vetzajem mezi eleny o v gechny ty veci, o vgechna to hesla, na kterYch budovala se SPJST jiZ pies padesat rokft; zajem o vg echny ty idealy, na ktere easem zapominame.

Napted budu opakovati nee° z toho, co pronesl bratr Rube g pied dvema roky. Pravil, ze mohli bychom si povgimnouti soustavy u sokolskYch jednot, kde katcla telocviena, jednota je samostatnYm telesem, ale katcla z nich je zapojena do telesa yetgiho, do Zupy. Cas od easu konaji se zavody, kam jsou yyslani od kaZde mistni sokolske jednoty cvieenci a cvieenky, aby zavodili mezi sebou. A jednou za nekolik rokil je spoleenY slet, kam jedou zavodnici ocI'mistnich jednot a z katcle ,tupy, aby opet zayodili mezi sebou. Bratr Rube g dodal k tomu, ze my glenka soutete v duchu bratrskem by se dobte uplatnila take mezi domacimi tady SPJST. Ptipomnel, tie distrikty byly by ptedev gim za tim fieelem, aby se vypracoval spoleanY program nekolika tadii, aby se dvakrate nebo ttikrate do roka konaly spoleene distriktni schtize, kde by bylo neco pro mladet a nee° take pro star gi eleny.

Zrno zasete na Den otcti, 17. Cervna 1951 v Hilije, pane vyklieilo. Lee sucho, ktere pogkozuje hosPodatske pomery v Texasu, jako by pilsobilo take do piste miry na rust toho, co vze glo pied dvema roky. Je tfeba dohledu. Je tieba pu,kyptiti pitdu. : Je tfeba upozornoni, a-

CIL SE NEZMENIL by co vzeglo, nezakrnelo a nebylo zaned ban°.

Proto tajemnik tietiho distriktu, bratr Hogek, napsal nekolik dopisti, v kterYch apeluje na tady tietiho distriktu, aby vzegle zrno nenechali Cleni uschnout.

Proto v dopisu, kterY je otisknut v tornto eisle, void bratr Hogek, aby vgechny tady tietiho distriktu pfeeetly si ve syYch schuzich jeho ptipomenuti a vyslaly do pti gti distriktni schfize svoje zastupce. Tajemnik tietiho distriktu take . tada, aby kaZdY, kdo pkijede do Fort Worth na etyrtou nedeli v eervenci, nesli s sebou nejake navrhy nebd nahledy, jak zlep giti nage domaci schtze, nage distriktni schtize, celY na g spolkovy vot.

Jak yyrozumivam z dopisii jinych a take z informaci soukromYch, fitednici tietiho 'clistriktu se opravdu snati v geaby jejich distrikt byl nejlepgim v Jednote. Nezazlivame jim toho, ze chteji zavoditi s jinYmi distrikty a ze chteji tteti distrikt umistiti v poptedi, pokud se to vztahuje na svolkove zajmy, spolkovou einnost, spolkovY rust. Jak etenati Vestniku mohou pozorovati, piedseda tietiho distriktu, bratr Cyril Pokladnik, a tajemnik distriktu, bratr Hogek, nav gtevuji rtizne tady v distriktu, aby podnitili a povzbudili kaZdY tad a kaZdou schtizi, kam za yitaji. Jente ze jsou vet ginou v nedeli, distrikt ma jedenadvacet iadu, tak neni motno, aby vgeclany tady v distriktu byly nav gtiveny. Proto tajemnik distriktu stale ptipomina, aby kaZdY distrikt vyslal nekoho do schtize ve Fort Worth, aby kaZdY distrikt mohi eerpati ponaueeni a po yzbuzeni ze spoleene schaze v gech jedenadvaceti tacit.

NeZ budu pokra:dovati, musim ylotiti rnalou poznamku,ze take v jinYch distriktech Snati se distriktni fitednici povzbuditi iady i eleny. Mel bych vlastne vyjmenovati vgeohny ony fifedniky z jinYch distriktft, o nicht vim, ze take naugtevuji jine tadove schtize, aby

zajem a dinnest ye svem distrkktu. Nei k tomuto bodu se vratime nekdy pozdeji.

Nyni si povgimneme dopiSu bratra tajemnika tietiho distriktu. Rad by zjistil, jaka byla spolkova einnost u toho nebo onoho fadu. Upozortiuje na pravidelne konani schfizi. Pta, se, kde men oslavu Dne matek nebo Dne ototl, kadoye svadiny nebo cokoliv jineho. Jako tajemnik distriktu, kterY nt ye schuzi 26. eervence podati souhrn einnosti u ygech 21 mistnich 'radix, rad by mel celkovY ptehled.

Napado, mne takova, nepromyglena, nedozra.la, nedokoneena, otazka: Neglo by vypra.covati jakousi zavodni listinu, ktera by se vypinila pti ka2cle distriktni schtizi? Vzporninam si na sokolske zavody a na ty archy papiru, na kterYch je napsano, jak kterY bored se vyznamenal. Nernohly by vgechny distrikty mlti najakY formula,k, kterY by ukazoval hromadnou einnost v celem distriktu?

Nebo nemohla by takova, zavodni listina, bYti sestavena tim zpfisobcm, by vYkonnost a rust u katcleho tadu mohl byti odhadnut? Ptipominam, ze toto je jen chvilkovY napad, ktery by se motna neukazal libivYm nebo praktickYm. Asi thee, minut distriktni schilze mohlo by bYti venovano ptehledu spolkoye prace v celem distriktu. Na archy papiru, kratgim a girgim net hlasova,ci listina sjezdova, -byla vy yypsana jmena vgech ta.dft patticich do distriktu. Pit jinena kaZdeho tadu bylo by 12 at 15 prazdnYch sloupeekil. Kandy sloupec by byl pro uraite informace. Techto listin mohlo by byti piedem nati gteno v dostateenem mnotstvi, aby kaZdY zastupce v distriktni schOzi dostal jednu listinu, kd3t by si to pfal.

Do prvniho sloupce bylo by vepsano jmeno tadO, tekneme tad Svaz techoslovanti eislo 92. DruhY a v gechny nasledujici sloupce byly by ptedem oznadeny, kdyi by listina byla tisknuta, co (Pokraeovani na straa 4.)

Nagi •editele pki odhadech majetkovYch pfrjeek museji nekdy jezditi po horgich cestach nea po gtovni rozvaZeei.

Mimochodem podotYkam, ze auto , Jednoty, kterYm jsme delali cestu do Bostonu, je sedm rokil stare.

V nekterYch distriktech se zajmem sleduji fifednici distriktfr i dlenoVe _any pfipravy, ktere e konaji v distriktu UTtim. Jak znamo, tfeti distrikt bude miti svou pfig ti distriktni schfizi za dva tYciny, etvrtou nedeli v eervenci. Schrize bude v Sokolovne ye Fort Worth. tkednici tfetiho distriktu povzbuzuji °sob' nim stykem i pisemne v gechny rady tfetiho distriktu, aby neopomenuli poslati do schilze svoje zastupce. Dosud pouze jeden distrikt—etvrtY—mel stoprocetni zastoupeni. Tfeti distrikt nechce zustati pczadu, teZ si pfeje miti stoprocentni zastoupeni. Schnze tfetiho distriktu byla oznamena- hned koncem bfezna, ei.m2 byla kaZdemu faciu, ktery pkinaletii do distriktu, dana dostatedna pfilelitost, aby v kterekoliv schtizi od bfezna byla o veci zminka a byli vybrani natal elenove, ktefi by p •eyzali na sebe povinnost zastupovati fad v distriktni schuzi. Odpada omluva, Ze nebylo Casu na dohodu, 2e nebylo moZno ryslati zastupce, ani nahradnika, ze pfigla navgteva, Ze vyskytly se pfekaZky. Pomorte distriktnim frfedniktim v jejich snahach.

Weil distrikt je az dosud jedinY distrikt, kterY stanovil pro sebe pracovati dlc ureiteho pfeclbetneho planu. Uiednici i elenove distriktu chteji, aby se ripfe, ly zraky do budoucnosti, co bude Jednota delati, az dne gni pracovnici budou muset bYti nahrazeni novYmi praccvniky. Distrikt tfeti planuje nikoliv od schtize do schilze, ale jiZ dnes planuje do pflatiho sjezdu, na dobu po pfi gtim sjezdu, na dobu, kdy deti budou sedeti na miste dne gnich einovnikU. Tfeti distrikt ma svfij budouci program rozdelenY na sedm bodn. Techto sedm loccIn je sestavcno v torn smyslu, aby se pracovalo v dohoda a Hlavni frkadovnou, aby v geehna zodpavednost neleZela Uplne na vrchnich Utednicich, ale aby rozdelena byla meal eleny, toti2 bratry, sestry, deti, organisatcry—moralne i finane'ne. A jako uiednici a elenove v jinYch distriktech, sleduji jako redaktor pozorne snahy a plany tfetiho distriktu, abych sam neco noveho zachytil, pollen se nebo y e sloupeich Vestniku jinYm ozna-

VESTNiK — WEST, TEXAS Brzy zaiine da gi planovani take v jinYch distriktech. Pao schilzi v eervenci pfijde na fadu schilze pateho distriktu, ktera, bude se konati v lesiku rybniku na plantaZi feditele Skrabanka, aby mohly bYti uspofadany hry a zavody deti a ornladiny. Schfize bude spojena opravdovYm vYletem a celodennim pobavenim. Bucle to patou nedeli v srpnu.

Datum schfize bylo stanoveno v pfedchazejici schrizi v bfeznu a pata, nedele v srpnu byla znmyslne vybrana, aby to byla nedele pro v gechny Upine volna, kdy nejsou Zadne jive schfrze a spolkove povinnosti. Datum take bylo oznameno Hlavni fnadovne, aby nahodou jinY distrikt nevolil tent den pro svou schnzi.

Bylo by dobre, aby jive distrikty oznamily sve pfigti schilze co nejdfive, nebo dohodly se s Hlavni Ufadovnou na urditern dnu sve distriktni schtize.

Bratr Otto Hanus cd tadu Slovanska Lipa aislo 66 ve Waco podava navod, jak se snadno nav gtevnici a hoste dostanou do schrize v SokoWne ye Fort Worth.

Kdo jede od jihu, drZi se stale silnice 81 a 287, aa pfijede na kfiZovatku 28. ulice v severni dasti, kde se stoei do leva, aZ pfijede k Cislu 3221 Northwest 28th Street. Dle informaci ed bratfi Sokoln zde v Houstonu, fort-worthska, Sokolovna se naleza takfka na kfiZovatce 28. ulice a Azle avenue. Diky bratru Hanugovi za poskytnute informace.

0 dalgim nahledu bratra Hanu ge, aby TiskovY vybor zavedl stfidani Ceske a, anglicke latky, dalo by se hodne uvaas.vati a psati. Bylo by • to pkipustne z ohledu, aby mladYm elenrim poskytnuty byly stejne vYhody a stejna prava: Cetba pij1 a pill, a jednou detba eeska; podruhe anglicka, by mela pfedni misto.

Jednou na to clojde. Ale je to nutne, abychom tu vec popohaneli? Nebo jsme dosti rozvatnYmi, abychom pfiznali Mena tote2 pra y°, jake chceme pro sebe? Bylo by na to pohlii:eno jako na rovnopravnost od 'Glom stran? Nebylo by spra y gim miti ohled k tem star gim s gestem-nej "Age before beauty"? Snad by Vestnik byl vice propagaenim, reklamnim prostfedkem, kdy by obeas se objevila anglicka Cast na pfedni strane, ale necitiii by se ti staygi eleni odsunuti stranou?

Jak einske pfislovi pravi, kaZda, voc ma ti'i strany: licni, rubni, a dobrou. Jo na nas, abychom nehledali Beni, ani rubni, ale tu dobrou stranu.

Vdeeime na gim eeskYm easopisinn velice mnoho. Vykladal mi jeden uptimnY bratr, ktery se nikdy spolkove praci nevyhYbal, a kterY vzdor sve sedmdeso.tce je stale 'cinny,ze pied nekolika lety mel navgtevu, eloveka gkoleneho v 6echach: "KdyZ jsem veal, ze mluvim s elovekem girgich vedomosti, daval jsem si pozor, abych nemluvil na piano, ale abych svo-

Strana 3 je myglenky .cdel do lep g iho havu. Daval jsem si poz,or na svou fee a vYber syYch slov. Po chvilce ptal se mne onen host, z ktereho kraje pochazim. Unreal jsem se a odpovedel jsem mu, Ze z.• kraje texaskeho, ze jsem se v Texasu narodil, jsem a Texasu nevy gel, a Ze bezpochyby sve kosti sloZim v Texasu. A kdy se nine ptal, jakYm zpilsobem nebo jakou hodou jsem si osvojil takovY bohatY vYber e_.'eskYch slov, musel jsem se pfiznat, Ze to bylo z eeskYch novin, ktere jsem 0-, debiral a pozorne Ceti. A kdy ted' nekdy syYm vnoueatum vysvetluji, Ze jsem mel jenom dva roky gkoly, nemohou pochopit, pros tak, mai.° jsem chodil do gkoly.

Je to mama vysvetlovati, Z • e prod Seriesati roky bylo vice starosti, Co dame do taludku ne2 co dame do hiavy. Pro rraie Ceske noviny jsou az dosud stAlou pokrad•vaci Skolou."

Na jedrut -okolnost upozernil nine ncdavno pritel. Pctreboval dfikaz, Ze je mu 65 let, aby se mohl pfihlasiti o socEtlni. pojigtern . Byl narozen ye vYchodni Mo, rave, ale piljel do Ameriky docela v skein van. RodnY nebo kfestni list ne, ma. Obdanske pra y() nabyl tim, Ze ()tee jeho stal se obtanem. Verna '2.cidn3ich zaznamil, v nich by byl den a rck jeho narozeni zanesen. Ptal se, jakYrn zprisobem by dostal nejake dfikazy. Nedaleko sta.]. bratr Chupick, tajemnik Hlavni fadovny. Sli jsme za nim, zdali u Hlavni f •adovny jsou nejake zaznarny, kdy se zminenY Clen narodil. V kaZde Zadosti o Clenstvi je udan den a rok narozeni Clena. Bratr Chupick nam oznamil, Ze v clkivej gich letech se Zadosti o Clenstvi zahaZovaly, kdy se die nich vypinil certi, fikat. Dcsud. Ze se nepofizuji fotograficke snimky, tak zvand fotostaty, ktere by se pfipojily ku kO:deniu noveniu certilikatu jako Cast zavazne smlouvy, Die vladnich pravidel, zaznamY bratrskeho spolku stran dne a roku narozeni dorm jsou postadujici.

Reports from Lodges, biographieS, etc., intended for publication, must be in the hands of the Editor a week before the date of issue. Address all editorial matters to: Editor, 6402 Prague, Houston7, Tex.

OFFICIAL ORGAN OF SLAVONIC BENEVOLENT ORDER OF THE STATE OF TEXAS

POSTMASTER: Send form 3579 with undelliverable copies to S. P. J. S. T., Fayetteville, Texas.

MUSINGS OF THE EDITOR BEFORE TAKING UP ether subjects, I should like to make three short announcements. First, our new headquarters will move to Temple on or about the 20th of July. After July 18, 1953, all correspondence should be addressed to the Supreme Lodge SPJST, Temple, Texas. Second, District Three will hold its regular meeting at the Sokol Hall, 3221 Northwest 28th Street, Forth Worth, on the fourth Sunday, July 26.

Kindly let the secretary of Fort Worth Lodge No. 154 know 'if you are coming, and how many persons from your Lodge.

Don't fail. Do it now. His address is John W. Becan, 2011 'Clinton Ave., Fort Worth. Third, District Five will have its regular meeting on the fifth Sunday in August on the picnic ground of Director Skrabanek's lake in Danbury. This notice is made now so that there would be no other planning for that Sunday. * * ONE BROTHER from North Texas, a good .friend of mine whose opinions I always respect, mailed me a booklet prepared by a life insurance underwriter who puts "C. L. U." his name.

This Brother—I'll not name him, he is a sincere soul—made the following notation on the booklet dealing with life insurance: "The writer who prepared this booklet is a C. L. U. Do you know what C.L.U. stands for? I do. This fellow for the last three years has written over million dollars worth of life insurance, on top of his commission.

Think of it! The company gave his wife and him a trip to Bermuda. What premiums do we offer when our salesmen reach $100,000? I think you better apply yourself to that feature of publicity instead of running the new building and be a head organizer also. Brother Editor, you are covering too d- - much territory" End of the notation.

HE IS SINCERE, and he means good.

He would like to see more trained men to sell our SPJST, to sell our service which we offer to the public. He raises the question if your editor knows the letters -C.L.U. It is the equivalent of the F.I.C. which the Supreme Lodge is trying our ,organizers to get interested in.

LETTERS Temple, Texas Dear Editor: Enclosed you will find a clipping from the Temple Daily Telegram about one of our younger SPJST members. Brother Marvin Chlapek is a member of Lodge No. 47. He is the son of Brother Joe V. and Sister Marie Chlapek, who also are members of Lodge No. 47. It is a distinct honor for Marvin to be awarded a fouryear scholarship and it will be appreciated to mention it in the Vestnik.

The Chlapek family is 100% SPJST. Fraternally, Chas. Navratil (Editor's Note:—That's the spirit. I wish I had a dozen clippings like that for every issue. Many thanks. Here is the clipping:) * * * MARVIN CHLAPEK WINS SCHOLARSHIP TO A & M COLLEGE Marvin J. Chlapek, route 3, Temple, is one of 81 high school graduates of this year to receive a four-year opportunity award scholarship at Texas A&M college.

Winners were chosen by the college's faculty committee on scholarships through a statewide contest entered by 356 candidates.

Opportunity awards are valued at $800 to $1600. Recipients receive $200 to $400 each year for four years, plus employment provided by the college.

Winners were chosen after careful consideration of each candidates character, scholastic record, evidence of leadership, and financial circumstances.

Dear Readers: Since we had a belated monthly meeting, my report is also belated. On the second Sunday in June, our usual meeting date, we had our barbecue and stew supper, plus other added attractions of bingo, a CoUntry Store and peppy, pleasant-to-gisten-to music by the Witting playboys. The two little lads who sang with them deserve especial mention for they certainly did well.

A goodly crowd came to the supper and judging from the compliments overheard, the food was excellent and more than enough of it and the service was fine. We had our first opportunity to make use of our recently acquired coffee tricolator; it worked wonderfully.

Our monthly meeting was held Wed-

nesday night, June 24, with our vicepresident, Mrs. Antoinette Stevens, presiding. Secretary Adolph Wagner gave an itemized report of the income and expenditure on the barbecue supper, resulting in a profit of $215.21 ,to be added to our local treasury. The chairman thanked every member who in any way contributed to the success of the evening's affair.

Our Solicitor, Mrs. J. V. Havlik, who some time ago underwent an operation in the Shiner Hospital, is able to be up and about in her own home. We hope she shall soon regain her strength and vigor so that she may again join in the various activities of the lodge.

July brings us the Glorious Fourth. It Seems only fitting that we pause for momentary reflection upon the many blessings and benefits that we as citizens of the United States, enjoy. Yes, our forebears rebelled against a tyrannous government, overthrew it and by Heavenly guidance formed for this country such a. masterpiece of work, the Constitution of the United States; that no one in modern times could improve upon it. When We hear through the press and radio of the restive conditions of the people behind the Iron Curtain, it serves as a reminder that they too have a deep and earnest desire for such freedom and and everyone of us should pray that this restiveness, as it gains momentum, may likewise eventually result in a like freedom for this suppressed people.

With the passing of our national holidays, let not our patriotic fervor wane, but keep our love of country ever alive and sing with the famous poet, Henry Van Dyke:, "But the glory of the preSent is to make the Future free— We love our Ian dfor what she is and what she is to be.

So it's home again, and home again, America for me!

My heart is turning home again, and there I long to be, In the blessed Land of Room Enough beyond the ocean bars, where the air is full of sunlight and the flag is full of stars."

Not one sister refused to work or do her share of donating into the kitchen. I did not ask those who had been operated on recently because you had doctor's orders not to work. I hope you didn't feel neglected, but I'll remember you next time.

Freedom From Censorship In America June 13, 1953, was the day when President Eisenhower received an honorary degree of Doctor of Laws from Dartsmouth College, Hanover, New Hampshire.

In his address of acceptance, President Eisenhower made this remark to the graduating seniors: "Don't be afraid to go to the library and read books. That's how we will defeat Communism—by knowing what it is."

In the Texas Legislature, under, date of Monday, April 27, 1953, six weeks before the President's remark, Maury Maverick, Jr., made what I consider to be a great argument in opposition to the principle of censorship and in support of the great American doctrine of free speech and free press.

There is a growin g danger, as I see it, that more and more groups—well-intentioned groups but mistaken groups—will feel that we ought do some book burning and ought to go back decades and decades to adipt the principles of censorship. I consider Maury Maverick's speech worth reading. It follows: I rise to oppose House bill 566.

House bill 566 has been criticized by the Dallas Morning News, by the Austin American, and many other good newspapers. It is aimed to remove from the publie libraries all books, if ,they (1) dis-, credit the family; (2) ridicule the Amer-' ican Constitution or its privileges; (3) hold up to scorn freedom of religious worship: (4) hold up to contempt American or Texas history; (5) advocate the overthrow of the Government by violence.

The first four items mentioned in the bill make for an unconstitutional law, as they destroy free speech and freedom of the press. I shall make a separate analysis of the last item.

As for writing which discredits the family, there may be those fanatics who will demand that the Holy Bible be removed from public libraries, for it is stated, in the gospel of St. Matthew, chapter 10, verse 35: "For I am come to set a man at variance against his father, and the daughter against her mother, and the daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law."

As for publications which ridicule the rights and privileges enjoyed under the Federal Constitution, the very first publication, to be removed from public libraries would be the statue books which will contain House bill 566, should the bill become the law.

As for publications which hold up to scorn freedom of religion, there may be those who will demand that the Declaration of Independence of the Republic of

Texas be removed from all public libraries, for it contains the following: . . the whole nature of the government has been forcibly changed without the people's consent, from a restricted Federative Republic, composed of sovereign states, to a consolidated central military despotism, in which every interest is disregarded but that of the army and the priesthood, both the eternal enemis of civil liberty, the ever-ready minions of power, and the usual instruments of tyrants. .

In addition there is the risk that the Constitution of the United States of America will have to be removed because of the language in article 1 of the Bill of Rights, which reads: "Congress shall make no law respecting the establishment of religion". This, of course, is the doctrine of the separation of church and state and to many people is considered as being contemptuous of religion.

As for books which unjustifiably hold up to public contempt American and Texas history, there might well be those who will insist, that all books be removed which criticize the murder of Alexander Hamilton by Aaron Burr, the Dred Scott decision, the burning of the South by General Sherman, the Ku Klux Klan, and all books which refer to President Cleveland's illegitimate child. The poetry and writing of Walt Whitman, who grew up in an era which saw lobbying approach its corrupt zenith, and who cried out against, ". . . bawling officeholders, kept editors, bribers, compromisers, lobbyists, spongiers, the lousy combines, and born freedom sellers of the earth. . . may be taken out of the libraries.

Lincoln Steffens and Ida Tarbell, the muckrackers of their day, and the late Heywood Brown of more recent vintage, plus numerous present-day writers and yournalists of opposite beliefs, like Fulton Lewis, Jr., on the one hand and Drew Pearson or Bob Allen on the other might be suspect. The satirical and critical books on the preceding periods of American history by men from Mark Twain to Sinclair Lewis will not be immune to attack by those who might follow a cause so suggestive of the days when books were burned in front of the Reichstag.

In short, this bill provides a breeding ground for both the fanatical right and leftwingers to play havoc with our traditional concepts of liberty.

Strained though the analysis may be to fairminded men, but remembering that unfairminded men could cripple liberty and freedom under house bill 566, it appears, as to books which advocate the overthrow of America or Texas by

violence, that our present State constitution may have to be removed from the public' libraries. Section 2 of article 1 of the Bill of Rights pledges us to the republican form . of government, but goes furthers and says: "... they (the people) have at all times the inalienable right to alter, reform, or abolish their Government in such manner as thy may think expedient." This conceivably could be construed, as permitting overthrow by violence and, in any event, is a much bolder constitutional provision because of its unlimited nature than anything of its kind in the Federal Constitution. I have never seen a book in my life which outrightly advocates the overtow of America by violence, and I doubt if you have either, there evidently being a scarcity of such books. In any event it would be presumptuous and grossly insulting of us to assume that the people of Texas are so susceptible to treason that they cannot remain loyal to our country without this legislature passing an unconstitutional measure. On the contrary we must, as Thoints Jefferson said, "CheriSh the spirit of the people."

But now permit me to turn to that portion of house bill 566 which requires that all books in public libraries be stamped w i t, _h quarter-inch high or d s in red print . where the author is in fact or is alleged to be subversive, or once a member of some organization on the Attorney General's list. The only other larger countries in modern times to institute' book branding have been Japan, Germany, Italy, and to no one's surprise. Soviet Russia.

The mutual confidence on which all else depends can be maintained only by an open mind and a brave reliance upon free discussion. I do not say that these will suffice. Who knows but we may be on a slope which leads down to aboriginal savagery. But of this I am sure, if we are to escape we must not yield a foot upon demanding a fair field and an honest race to all ideas. "Blame not before thou hast examined. Understand first and then rebuke. Answer not before thou hast heard. Interrupt not in the midst of speech.' Those words were written nearly 2,000 years ago. They came out of an experience already long and refined in the fires of passion and conflict. They are the product of wisdom bought by ages of bitter trial; and by that wisdom alone shall we be saved— we who boast ourselves to be the apostles (Continued on page 17)

CAN POLIO BE PREVENTED? The dread disease of polio spreads over our country almost every summer.

There is a tremendous amount of interest and much effort is being put forth to find a remedy for this annual scourge.

There is also a lot of theories as to the cause and cure. One of the theo,ries is advanced by Dr. Alfred R. Ross, or Wellsville, N. Y. Back in 1945, Dr. Ross published an article in the Medical World. I clipped the article then, and I consider it of timely interest as the polio season is again upon us. The read- ers of the Vestnik may welcome the information about Dr. Ross's theory as to why some children have less resistance to infantile paralysis.

The article follow's: Epidemics of infectious diseases are usually caused' by a whole chain of circumstances. Fortunately, it is only necesary to eliminate one important link in most cases, and epidemics can be stopped or prevented altogether. It is from this point of view that I am writing here about the prevention of infantile paralysis epidemics.

The first epidemics, as far as we know; occurred in Sweden in 1887 and 1890.

Their epidemiology was given by Medin in full details. Another extensive epidemic followed in Scandinavia in 1905. In 1907 severe epidemics broke out in New York and Massachusetts. There were about 25,000 cases in New York in 1907 and several hundred cases in Massachusetts in 1907 and 1908.

Less severe epidemics occurred in western Germany, Austria, France, and England in 1908, especially in 1909 and 1910. Scandinavia had to endure another severe epidemic from 1911 until 1913.

Within the last generation more or less moderate epidemics have rather regularly recurred in the United States and Australia.

The epidemics start with the beginning of summer reach their peak at the end of summer, and taper off in the fall. The population of the open country is more severely hit than the inhabitants of big cities. Infantile paralysis is a disease of early childhood; children between 1 and 4 years of age are by far its most frequent victims, but even adults can be affected.

It has been noticed that many children of the wealthy and rich .are to be found amongst the diseased. In America Negroes are not as frequently hit as white people. It is a rare occurrence that • several children of one family are struck by the same epidemic.

The only measure adopted to prevent

epidemics of infantile paralysis has been' tion.

FOOTPRINTS . UNKNOWN On May 29, 1953, a British expedition had succeeded in conquering the highest mountain in the world, the summit of Mount Everest.

Last year, the Popular Science magazine had published an unusual story about strange footprints near the top of the mountain. It is still a puzzle to the scientists.

What — or who — makes the naked, manlike footprints in the snow near the tops of the world's highest mountains? 'f'his mystery has stumped the experts for thirty years.

Ever since 1921, climbers approaching the peaks of Mount Everest and other Himalaya mountains have been startled by what look like human footprints in the snow. The prints are found four cr five miles high, where the temperature is often twenty-five below. Yet no mountaineer has ever seen, even fleetingly, the creature that makes the tracks.

The Abominable Snowman has many names. The Himalayan natives call it Yeti, Mirka, Metchkangmi — or in pidgin English, Bad Man-shi. Different scientists have "definitely identified" it as a wolf, black bear, red mountain bear, snubnosed monkey, langur monkey, and great ape.

Among the natives there is no such variety of opinion. Several claim to have seen it. They say it is a man. A wild man covered with thick hair, a man with an evil face, teeth like fangs, toenails like claws. A man who can jump by huge bounds and run like lightning over the mountains.

The Snowman definitely exists. British mountaineers have photographed and measured it tracks.

The first European to report the mysterious tracks was Lt. Col. C. K. Howard-Bury He startled British scientists in 1921 with the news that his expedition had discovered at 21,000 feet "the track of what was probably a large, loping gray wolf, which had tracks very like those of a barefooted man."

The latest report on the Snowman comes from Eric Earle Shipton, curent champion among Everest climbers, with twelve trips to, the Himalayas behind him.

"I have come across many of these tracks in various parts of the Himalaya and the Karakoram," Shipton says.

Only recently on a glacier 19,000 feet high he saw the spoor. "On November 8,_ at four o'clock we came upon s' tran g e tracks in the snow. What was particularly interesting was that where the- tracks crossed a crevasse one could -see quite clearly where the creature had

The fact that they appeared to be made "We followed the tracks for more than by a biped was explained by the bear's a mile down the glacier before we got putting its rear feet into the rear ends to the •oraine-(rock-) covered ice." of the impressions left by its front feet.

His suggestion and cooperation is very timely.

Zas musim jednou napsat jak zde tijeme v torn horku a suchu. Letos zde videt ty kropy rozmanite; nekterSim baylna kvete a nekterVm to vyhliti dosti epatne.

Ale je to baviny take zde natlakane.

Nekteti farmati ani korn neseji, mysil bude bavina kolem 40 centii. Ja nemyslim, neb jak videt ty ceny let dolti. Ho'y eti dobytek je dolu na polovic ceny jak byl pied rokem, ale maso je jen o par centti lacinejei.

Ta republikanska strana to umi udelat s tou prosperitou pro farmate, a teprve vladne Best mesicii. Kdyby mela vladnout dvacet rokil, tak by to dopadlo jako v rocc 1907. Tenkrat se dojne kravy prodavaly za deset dolarti i s teletem, nekde jeete lacineji, a stejk byl za osm centil libra. Jo, easy se meni. Dnes delnik ma dva dolary na hodinu, g ja jsem mel dva dolary denne pri temesle kovaiskem.

Tenkrat se platilo tiicet pet centa od sta liber baviny za pikovani. To byl vS7delek, co? Kdyby melo dojit k tomu staremu retimu, tak to mlada generace by na to hledela jak tele na nova vrata. Jestli ten Kocourkov na to Koreji skonei, tak bude mnoho milionu lidu bet zamestnani, pak piljde na "relief". Co budou delat s nami starSrmi stateeky a statenkami? Myslim, ze my zde jit nebudeme travu elapat, ale za vlady republikanske se intiteme doekat mnohSich novSl ch ptevratii.

Ja jim pieji, aby se hodne zamazali tim olejovSnn tern. Jit je tam v okoli sedmnact stuctni, co jim teee olej, ale posavad olejati moc nelisuji. Z.a Use platili deset a dva na tti roky.

MladY lord si pry z Anglie peivez1 noyeho mana a statnika. WW2 se jmenoval George Talbot. Pochazel z peizne; byl lordri y bratranec a jinak znamY irsky boueliyak.

Heiman r a no yeho mana neZarlil. Lord poteeboyal spolupracovniku, zylafte kdyZ on, Haman, dvoru jiZ nernohl bSit uZiteenY. Jenom Herman pochyboval, volil-li lord v Talbotovi dob • e. Zpravy, jeZ Talbota z Irska doprovazely, nebyly nijak povzbuzujici. Mluvilo se o muZi neukaznenem, rozinatilem a panovitem.

Vskutku, jiz uvedeni Talbota bylo na marylandske pomery neobvykle hluene a okazale. Tento mladY muZ byl povYSen na barona a obdrZe,1 asi 32.000 akril piidy --- "at' vice nebo mane," urdoyala Stedra darovaci listina.

Herman vskutku pustil z rnysli Tal✓ota i jeho susquehannske manstvi.

"Kdyby jen toho kousku papiru nebylo!" zareptal Heiman a a2 se ulekl to azkosti vlastniho hlasu.

Bylo to po prve, kdy Herman litoval toho, co byl napsal, po prve, kdy vyrel z jeho rukou papir, kterY by chtel tak rad
