Rabitejnkem Peknou a zasloutenou vzpominku sepsal bratr Hlubueek o zesnulem bratru Rabgtejnkovi v "Hlasateli" a uvadime jí v pinem zneni pro na ge etenafe.

SedmY srpen 1961 byl smutnYm dnem pro krajanskou Ameriku. V pravde potehnanem veku 87 let zemfel jeden z vernYch jejich budovatelft, Peter Rabgtejnek z mesta Oklahoma City.

Zprava o jeho skonu zarmoutila, ztrata je citelna.

O tom, jak v Americe, po svem chodu z rodne •zeme, uplatnil a ye schopnosti a ziskal sobe frau a vatnost u vgech, a nimit prichazel do styku, neni ti-eba psat.

Osobne jsme v Petru Rab gtejnkovi poznali yzacneho — vlastenecky hluboce zaloteneho mute. Svoji laskti k Ceske veci projevoval perem, jim t schopne po desitky let zaznamenaval udalosti v tivote krajanske i verejnem.

Bylo to kratce po Cervnu v roce 1927,

V RSTNiK WEST, TEXAS kdyt jsme sami vstoupili do glepeji. prominentniho eesko - americkeho novinafe Josefa J. Hajka, tehdy redaktora Arestniku Iowskeho, prilohy denni Svorno sti, kdy z Oklahoma City dogel dopis tohoto zneni: "Bratfe Hlubueku, bud" vitan do na gi rodiny zpravodajt. Jsi derstve pfijetk, mat ke psani vlohy, setrvej !"

Od te doby jsme Si dopisovali o rozmanitYch vecech. Spolu jsme sdileli slasti i strasti novinarskeho tivota a• navazali peyne pfatelstvi, jet se a odstupem let ututovalo.

Petr Rabgtejnek prijel za nami do Cedar Rapids v dobe na gi ueltelske kariery. Tehdy 3 tticly pfrvodniCeske mateni gkoly na, 10. Ave., a druhe ul., jihovkchodni, byly prepineny. Prohledl si meat°, jehot tehdejai populace byla z jedne tietiny slotena z Cechii. S obdivem zagel do budovy Sokola, a obou eeskYch narodnich sini, OSA a ZCBJ, take navetivil velkolekarnou tovarnu zesnuleho W. F. Severy. Tire do glo ke "spojeni" dvou krasnYch meat: Oklahoma City a Cedar Rapids!

Desitkam tisictim etenelt stal se Petr Rabgtejnek starkm pfttelem a radcem. Svoje state psal originelnim zptsobem. Radoval se ze vteho dobreho, dovedl vgak pokarat i ostfe odsoudit to, co povatorval za tkodlivé a nezdrave.

Mel bystrY postrech ye vecech verejnYch i politickkch. Jako dobrk hospoddia nemohl snesti nehospodarnost a zvlagte kdyt se jednalo o verejne penize.

Sedm a osmdesat let, jeden mesic a pet dni bylo vepsano do knihy jeho tivota. Nevedell jsme te churavi. Dokonce jsme ani nemeli tu geni, te se bliti k devadesatce.

Od roku k roku byl pro nas tim natim Petrem Rab gtejnkem, kterY tu bade mezi nami yeene. At se nekdo opet uchopi pera, zaene psat novou kapitolu historie es. Ameriky, v dile zesnuleho najde vdeenou latku 0 tom, jak nagi lide v teto zemi pracovali, co vSechno vykonali k rozvoji avé nove vlasti, praye tak jako o dile, jet s takovou laskou, obeli a oddanosti konali pro svoji rodnou zemi.

A protote til ye statu a "tekutYm zlatern" — olejem pod semi, tivot Petra Rabgtejnka byl frzsce spojen s lidmi, z kterYch se pies noc tsal bohaei, prave tak jako s druhYmi, kterYm tyrcla price a starosti byly dClern Po cely tivot.

Nageho "Petra z Oklahomy" neni vice, ale jeho tivotni dilo stane se zdrojem povzbuzeni a vzpruhou nana fgern; kdot jej znali a s nim spolupravovali na ilk narodni. • . Buda mu veena pamet Texasu.

"Ja?" zasnial se hluene Chleborad.

"Nevedel bych skuteene, co by mne mohlo rozeilovati."

Zabava po eels odpoledne vazla a Chleborad byl opravdu rad, ge k vederu mohl hasty z dediny vyprovoditi.

Kdyt se vracel, zablaudil zrak jeha u silnice k myslivne, stojici opodal. Poprve vzpomnel tiveji na Herminu a hotkost seviela mu hrdlo.

Teprve v patek liked polednem vratila se pani ueitelova a zaroven s ni mimo oeekavani i jeji matka.

"Vy jste, pane zeti, jednodu ge necita!

Za to Hermina i ye spolednosti ztitstaVala zamlklou a zasmuklou. Ani lesy, ktere v jejich jarni a letni nadhete dtive mivala velmi rada, nerozplaSovaly ted' chmur jejich myalenek.

"To device, pant fottova, nic se mi ted' nelibi. Co v ni bYvalo Zivota, a ted" chodi jako nalomena, kvetinka," septala jednou pant Marinka Pankove vidouc, jak Hermina se sklopenou hiavou neteene kraoi pied nimi lesnim chodnikern.

"Jegte se, pant Marinko, nesebrala z tech zimnich trampot. Botence ona se nejvice naposluhovala. Ani mne to dite u sebe nemela tak ratio jako ji. DC, snad Pan Huh, to se z toho take zotavi" minila Pankova.

"Vrat'te mj radost ze tivota, nebo. mi aspon neco ukatte, nab bych se mohla do budoucnosti tetiti, a bude po nemoci," myslila si Hermina, ale nekekla nieeho. aby rozptYlila Pankovy obavy, jet i jemu zatim panimania nasadila do dute.

FROM THE EDITOR'S DESK

cut of Public Relations has been defined in many ways. The definition I like best is also one of the shortest ones. "Public Relations is the art of creating an image in the minds of men — a favorable image of your business, your company or your product." The use of the word "creating" suggests to me that,we should have a part in developing the kind of an image we wish, portrayed. It's a wellknown fact that every business and every industry and every company has public relations. Whether they are aware of this or not, images of a business have a habit of developing in the minds of men over the years. They may be good or bad, they oxay be favorable or unfavorable, but some kind of a picture does develop. It should be our business to see that these images are favorable, With respect to fraternal societies.

What image or picture do you suppose arises in the mind of a man or woman when the name of your society or fraternal life insurance is mentioned?

Is it good or is it mad? Is it favorable or is it unfavorable. It's up to you and me to 'hel p create the kind of image we want the public to have of our business, and that can be done by following techniques already proven through practicing good public relations.

Forty years ago fraternal societies had many, many problems. The most pressing, and the most difficult of solution, was the one of adequate rate and the rerating of those members inadeouately rated. Every society I know about has at great cost and effort solved this problem through the adoption and application of the reserve plan of life insurance with premiums set up on a sound actuarial basis. A study of 1057 Fraternal :Statistics, scorn 175 Societies included, reveals the prograss made. Ninety-three societies are issuing business on the American Experience table of mortality; 61 issue new

PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE "I pledge Allegiance to the Flag of the United States of America and to the Republic for which it stands. One Nation under God, indivisible, with Liberty and Justice for all." business on the Commissioners Standard Ordinary table and 46 issue on the American Men table. Thirty-five issue on several other tables less well known.

Further study of Fraternal Statistics for the same year reveals that 49 , societies assume an interest rate of 2 1/2 per cent 47 assume 3 per cent and seven assume 3 1/2 per cent. Information is not given for all, but these figures indicate the trend to a conservative assumption of interest in the calculation of premiums and reserves.

The average ratio of solvency for the 153 societies reporting this information shows 121.04 per cent. I doubt if any 150 life companies in America could begin to approach this high ratio of solvency.

Yes, fraternal societies have become sound to a remarkable degree in their financial operations, and we should be exceedingly proud of this fact.

With the change from the old assessment plan of operation, to the legal reserve conception and application, new problems arose. Problems of developing field forces which were trained in life insurance fundamentals, the understanding of non-forfeiture values and the understanding of settlement options and how to use them. These opened up

a whole new field of services by fraternals to their members; insurance for retirement; insurance for mortgage coverage; insurance for the education of children; and insurance to provide incope for the wife and family in event of the member's death. I do not consider this sort of protection and coverage for the member of a fraternal benefit society to be unfraternal. I think it only increases and expands the fraternal aspect, service and coverage of Fraternal protection, and in my opinion such are not only necessary but imperative if we as fraternals are to fulfill the obligations and responsibilities for which our societies werefounded. Times, conditions and circumstances have changed in the last 50 years. Life has become more complex and in our present-day economy many, many problems confront us, problems never dreamed of by our forefathers or the founders of Fraternal Societies. We must meet these charges and challenges and the insurance needs of our trAembers today.

With the advent of legal reserve insurance, it became obvious that a new conception in the training of our fieldworkers was necessary. Managements of most Societies today recognize this fact and a great many have 'undertaken to do something about it. Significant progress has been made, and inevitably, a satisfactory volume of new business has followed for those societies which, over the past ten or fifteen years, have developed effective 'training plans for their fieldworkers. These efforts are now paying off.

One problem still remains. As I view it, it is the only serious obstacle confronting us. It confronts us as individual societies and it confronts us as a group.

I refer to the problem of PUBLIC RELATIONS. It is a big, big problem and it has many aspects. The biggest one is the mistaken notion on the part of our public ,your prospezts and mine, that fraternals "operate on the assessment basis and will raise their . rates."

There is a little likelihood of such occurring today or in the future as there is that any well known commercial coin-

Wednesday, September 27, 1961 pang will go into receivership. Doesn't an average solvency ratio for all Fraternals of 121 per cent suggest how mistaken this conception is. What have we done about dispelling this misconception? "Too little and too late" might well describe our efforts. It seems essential to me that we unite in some kind of an undertaking to tell the public of the soundness of our operations. ale

Strana 14 given with love and appreciation to its recipients.

Two lovely girls helped with the distribution of the pins during the award'lag of them.

Brother Raymond UrbanOvsky who had prepared a list of eligibles from records at the Supreme Lodge, read off the names during the ceremony. He stated that he felt it was a privilege to participate in this momentous occasion and addressed the group in the Czech language. He too, stated that the pins do .not have a great monetary value but that they are valued by those who built these Lodge Halls over Texas; "we value you work and congratulate you on your achievement."

Brother Urbanovsky then thanked the young ladies who helped distribute the pins and he also congratulated District y our for having such a large percentage of its lodges represented at this meeting.

Brother A. J. Fojtik, President of Lodge No. 94 took a bow and welcomed everyone to Seymour, hoping they would all feel at home and have a good time.

District Vice President Bubenik, then introduced District Four's Organizer, brother Fred Kveton and his Missus.

Then followed the speakers' session: Erother Hejny spoke in behalf of the Youth Movement. "Just look around here," he stated, pointing, "we have a lot of children and a good many teen-agers here today and we are certainly proud to have thews with us. We appreciate the distances you have to travel." Speaking in behalf of the SPJST Order, brother Hejny stated that he would like to plead with the lodges to, organize the youth into Youth Clubs within their lodges and help sponsor other activities of the Youth. Brother Hejny then complimented the two boys who participated on the Youth Program, stating that it is usually the girls who take the lead on the programs but that this time it was reversed. "If you encourage your youth to come among us and when we do encourage them to work in their Youth groups, I think that we can have active Youth Clubs. Let's help sister Haisler, your District Youth Director, as she has a terrific job and, needs your help," stated brother Hejny, Supreme Secretary.

Brother Raymond Urbanovsky spoke next, telling of how he spent his boyhood days in this locality; of re-visiting `the landmarks only to find many of them gone. He had Sidney Kacir and family with him on this visit; to show them where he got his start. Brother.

Urbanovsky stated that he left this area when he was 15 years of age and remonbers when Lodge No. 73 , was :organized and the dedication ceremonies held.

V E. S T N I K WEST, TEXAS He also thanked the Kitchen Committee ?for the delicious dinner which they prepared for the Meeting.

Brother Ben Zabcik, Financial Secretary from our Supreme Lodge followed brother Urbanovsky, who complimented the large gathering assembled in spite of long distances; and the Fifty-Year Pin awardees, who were today honored Brother Zabcik then, stated that District Four had some 1091 members with over a million dollars of insurance in force. and he also gave other pertinent statistics to show the growth of our Order. Brother Zabcik stated that our Order was steadily growing, doing some "big business' in the Mortgage-Loan Department which our Seven Directors and Supreme Lodge personnel handle.

Brother Koliha, Supreme Lodge Treasurer, followed brother Zabcik, to say that "as long as we can go ahead and have some good, sound securities on paper — that is what we want, "because money that is idle is no good to anybody.

There is always a time in the year when Some money will be "on hand" that should be and is not in loans, but that will remedy itself in season." He congratulated the 50-year honorees on this, their day. Speaking in Czech, brother Koliha stated that it was, indeed, beautiful that we had the opportunity to hand out so many "emblems" today. "To you, the older brothers and sisters who helped organize these, lodges in this district, yes, you have had very hard times; there were not the advantages as they are today, so we congratulate you and honor you and wish you many years of continued life in good health among us."

Speaking in English, brother Koliha commented on the Youth Program.

"Music," stated, brother Koliha, "is the most beautiful thing that we have. "It has been the back bone of every nation that has existed. Next is fraternalims.

"As long as we have fraternal orders, we will have sisters and brothers."

Commenting on the Czech poem that young Joey Kocurek recited "Povinnost Nas Vsechny Vola" ((Duty calls us all) — those words," continued brother Koliha, "are the foundation of our Order' that is the way our founders felt. This youngster may not know what these words mean, for many of them do not have an opportunity to speak Czech, but the older trembers here understand them; they still mean a lot to us in the fraternal order. Brother Koliha requested the Editor publish the poem if possible, which the Editor promised to do.

(Upon being given the, poem, taken from an old issue of the Vestnik).

Brother August Kacir, our Attorney

Wednesday, September 27, 1.931 spoke next. "Many of • you here today came from Lavaca County where I used to live and many of you came here from Bell County where I now live. This is an excellent opportunity for all of us to meet as ;friends and continue our friendship," stated brother Kacir. He then recognized Dr. Schiller, now retired and his daughter Miss Pauline whom he knew in his school days. "Your District is ,always hospitable and friendly to us who conic here," he said, remembering the first time he came to Rowena. Your District is unfortunate in that it is isolated frepH the others" he then, recalls the miles from point to point, but "in spite of long distances, you have a wonderful gathering here today."

"Our SPJST is by far the most progressive fraternal organization of Czechs in the state of Texas." He stated that from the original 25 local lodges and some 840 members, and confidence -'most of our lodges today were organized from these 840 members who organized our SPJST Order. "Just because you are some 400 miles away, don't think that we are not interested in what you are doing." concluded Brother Kaeir.

Brother Broz, District Four Director, welcomed the membership and stated that if at any time he could be of service, to call on him.

District Four Organizer, brother Fred Kveton, stated that most everything important has been said, that there was not much more to add, except that his organizers were busy and if they keep it up they will exceed their set quota.

Brother Hosek, Vestnik's Editor, talked about the Vestnik, stating that it was published in the interest of all of our members. He conneente,d that contributions to the Czech. section were gradually shrinking, having more letters in the English. "I really have no way of knowing how your lodge is getting along," he stated, "I have to depend upon your reporters and their friendly cooperation."

Speaking in Czech brother Hose]; talked of the Youth Program which sister Haisler presented, saying it wars good and he promised to publish the Poem in Czech tha tthe young man recited. He stated that he knew Sister Haisler was working' under a handicap; that is why the programs are not larger. Commenting on the presentation of the Fifty-Year Pins brother Hosek stated that he was surprised that so many members were piesent to receive them, being the largest number ever presented together, at a Meeting, percentage wise. "We honor these older members; think lots of them and feel deep down in my heart that if it were not for the, help of these pioneers, we would not have an SPJST to-

Fraternally yours, Dolfie Erabina, Secty, Third District COTTONWOOD LODGE NO. 6 West, Texas Dear Members and Friends: Our last meeting was held Sunday, Sept. '0th, followed by a Youth Club Meeting, then a barbecue supper was served to all the members and their families. A wonderful crowd attended the supper and 'the dance that night.

The meeting was opened by the President, Brother R. Volcik and The Pledge to the Flag recited by a very active group of girls from the Youth Club, Dorothy Pavileek, Jeanette Krizan and Kathy Zn.paiac.

A moment's silent pray-er was observed for one of our beloved long-time members some 25 years, for •Sister Johanna Lovecky of West, who died in a Waco Hospital, Thursday, Sept. 7. F-uneral services were held Saturday, Sept. 9, at the West Catholic Church of the AL,sumption. Sister Lovecky was 01 years of age. She had been attending our meetings and socials regularly. Our heartfelt sympathy goes out to her family. She will always be remembered. May her soul rest in peace.

In our "new business" was the purchasing of the Barbecue Pits frcorn brother and sisterJohn and Antonia Marek and the pits had to be moved to the Lodge Hall Grounds. A motion was made

VESTNIK— WEST, TEXAS to have it built under a roof and screened in — out of the weather.

Other business included: having a large picture made again of our newest District Three Queen, Sister Linda Myliar, as we did two years ago for our first District Three Queen, Janie Hubik, also, to have a smaller picture made of our new Duchess, Kathy Zapalac, too.

Then the motion carried for the mother lodge to present gifts to our Queen, and the District Three in the same person, to the Duchess and the Hower Girl all of whom represented COttonwood Lodge at she Coronation so effectively.

Our Queen was not present to receive her gift because of other engagements.

She may pick Up her gift at the Youth Leader's home at her pleasure.

We accepted 20 new members to our Lodge and they are: James Henry Duke; James Louis Holecek; Rose Mary Krizan; Maurine Hollingsworth; Douglas J. 'Hollingsworth; Evelyn Ann Pavelka; Mary Ann Sembera; Monica Marie Mynar; Cynthia Claine Pustejovsky; Richard Van June; Melissa Hollingsworth; Mary Alice Atkins; Robert Lee Kahanek; Johnnie Ray Uptmore; Frances Ann Mazanec, Theresa Rose Mazanec, Kathleen Marie Mazanec, Michael Gerald Mazanec and Darvin L. Hollingsworth.

We welcarse these new members and are very glad to have them join our Lodge. We hope they will all enjoy being with us. I do hope they will attend our meetings and socials regularly.

All of the new members who were present at this last meeting were recognised.

We were very glad to see the seven couples from our good neighbor Lodge No. 35 Elk who came out and attended our Dance, Sunday, Sept. 10. We hope they will come again. We were also very glad to have the editor and his wife come and visit with us this time. It had been a long time since they could be among us as they are very, very busy, busy as bees and they are always trying hard to visit all of the functions of all the Lodges of the state, I know. By the way, they gave us their inspiring speaking which we always enjoy at our meetings, always encouraging the members to keep up the good work for the betterment of their lodge and to always be working together as a team for better success -- as has been done in the past several years in olraking and taking that big step to-Ward modernizing our Halls.

As brother Hosek spoke and outlined so well in the Vestnik two weeks ago.

Brother Hosek wrote it so truthfully just like he would had he been our member: for five years. He also urged the parents to work with the Youth Leader in

Strana 19 bringing the youngsters to the meetings so they can be trained in lodge work as well as have fun while learning. Some .day they shall become our leaders.

Sister Hosek spoke a few words of encouragement for the Youth and wished ∎for us to have a nice representation at .the Taylor Meeting where the State Talent Contest will be held on September 24. in which we hope to have our District Three Queen and Duchess present with lots of others, too.

We the Youth Club members wish to say a sweet "thank you" to sister Hosek for donating some money to our club, and also many thanks for the kitchen committee for that sweet donation to the Kitchen Fund.

Our next meeting will be held Sunday October 1, at 2:00 p.m, so please remember the date and come. As always, I arrx Fraternally yours, Ruth Krizan, reporter • a • ( WACO SPJST LODGE NO. 66 Dear Vestnik Readers: The regular meeting of Lodge No. 66 was held September 17 at 2:30 p.m. at Linden Hall.

Your reporter, Dorothy Gerlich, ° ( CORPUS CHRISTI, TEXAS Dear Brothers, Sisters and Readers: Well, we survived the Hurricane Carla Teal well. I tell you, there were many scared people, especially when the winds blew 173 miles per hour, just twenty miles from us, We were wondering what would happen if it did cckr.e. The high wind of 85 to 115 miles per hour blew ',for twenty hours and before that it blew most of Sunday afternoon at 60-75 miles per hour. Everything was flying around the place. I had a time with my chickens, tryin g to make them stay in coops.

Sunday the 15th, we stayed indoors and all we had was a transistor radio.

We sure were thankful for it, otherwise. we wouldn't have k.nown the location of the storm. Our power went off Sunday— no telephone until yesterday. Edwin boarded up all the windows and doors from the north and the east side. The only damage we had was broken trees and a four-bale -cotton trailer flipped upside down. So I think we were very fortunate. I sure feel sorry for all of those others who were completely wiped out — just to think of it — it is just a short distance from us. We're through picking cotton — the crop was good.

Our - daughter, Frances, joined the WAF's. She's just waiting for orders from Washington, hoping to be assigned to South, America any day now The other two are busy with their school work.

They both like school very much.

I am looking forward to the trip to Taylor Sunday, I can hardly wait. We ,sure hope our girl will win this state contest. We are behind her all the way 'and think she will win. Angie do your best and remember we are all hoping and praying for you.

By the time caw letter is published we will know the winner's name. I hope that it will be Angie Stratta from Lodge No. 39 Bryan, Texas, District No. 1.

We have no immediate future plans for any activity in our club, but when we do I will report it. Our mother lodge has agreed to let our club have all proceeds from two dances in 1962. We think this is just wnderful and that we will make much more money than if we sponsor our own dances.

WATCH IT! SCHOOL CHILDIatEN Thousands of school children are now back in school throughout Texas. Many of them, will be transported by school' buses. Most people are careful when approaching a school bus which may he standing beside the road or school to pick up school children or allow them to alight. However, we have already had some very bad accidents this year because a child or a motorist, or both, were careless at that very time.

Most Texans are aware of the law which requires a driver to conic to a complete stop when over taking from the rear a school bus which has stopped to receive or discharge school children. After stopping immeditaly behind the bus, he is then allowed by law to proceed past same at a speed which is prudent, not exceeding ten (10) miles per hour, and with due caution for the safety of such children."

What many persons do not realize is that the very same rule applies when meeting a stopped school bus. While everyone is interested in protecting our children, unthinking violators of this simple safety rule greatly outnumbers those who comply. Failure to follow the laW in this case can lead to fines up to $200.00 even when no accident occurs.

Following an accident in which some child is injured or killed, the penalties are naturally much more serious.

Although the above rule does not always apply when passing a stopped school bus in a business or residential district of a town, the necessity for extreme caution even in those locations is obvious.

When it comes to overtaking and passing moving vehicles, exercise of ordinary common sense will generally keep a driver within the, law. For instance, when passing a car it is only common sense to proceed on past it a safe distance before cutting back to the right side of the highway. Also, any driver would realize the danger of increasing his speed while another is attempting to pass him.

In the same category is the prohibition against passing on the right under most ordinary conditions. Of course, you

may legally pass on the right in a few speciffic instances, such as when the vehicle overtaken is making or about to make a left turn, or upon a one-way street with two or more lanes, or upon a four-lane highway.

However, our traffic laws state that even when passing on the right is allowed, it shall be done only under conditions permitting such movement in safety. And, in no event should such passing be accomplished by driving off the pavement or main-traveled portions of the roadway.

Familiar to all are the no passing zones designated by yellow lines placed to one side of the center line on our highways. Not so well known are the restrictions against crossing the center line when approaching within 100 feet of of when traversing any intersection or railroad grade crossing.

A driver should never cross the center line of a highway when the left side of the road is not clearly visible andfree of on coming traffic. Generally speaking, when not engaged in passing another vehicle, one should not drive to the left of the roadway.

(This newsfeature, prepared by the State Bar of Texas, is written to inform, — not to advise. No person should ever apply or interpret any law without the aid of an attorney who is fully advised concerning the facts involved, because a slight variance in facts may change the application of the law). o 4. • ECONOMIC JUSTICE AND THE AUTOMOBILE At the beginning of the Twentieth Century, the automobile was sputtering its way into American life as a plaything of the rich. Woodrow Wilson, then the president of Prinston Uniersity, was outraged by the conspicious consumption: "Nothing has spread socialistic feeling in this country more," Wilson said in 1907, "than the use of the automobile — a picture of the arrogance of wealth, with all its independence and carelessness." Fortunately, Wilson's place in American history as one of our most tar-sighted leaders will not be based on that prophesy. ,

In 1907, when Woodrow Wilson was rebuking the arrogant rich, there was cne car for every 167 families. Today, three out of every four families own cars and there are actually more cars than (families — some families have more than one car. The automobile has ceased to symbolize wealth or social position. It is an everyday convenience for More than 40 million families.

The automobile typifies the economic process in the United States and many other countries. At first, a new product can only be purchased by the few. It costs too much. Then, as its price comes down,more persons are able to buy it, This has happened with the phono graph, the vacuum cleaner, the radio, refrigerator, washing machine, electric toaster, television, and so on.

Mass production is possible, however, only when a great mass of consumers are in a position to buy radio or washing machines or television sets or automobiles. American corporations now necognize that only when workers are prosperous can they, the cor p orations, be prosperous. The gap between the very rich and the masses of Americans has narrowed — not because the rich have less but because the, millions have much nore.

In 1913, the top one per cent of the population received 15 per cent of the total income. After the Great Depression of the 1930's and the New Deal of President Roosevelt, that figure had narrowed to 12 per cent. After World War II, it dropped to eight per cent. It may be lower today.

More significanily, fewer families are really poor. In 1929, about one-third of American families had purchasing power, at present-day values, of less than $2,000 a year. By 1947 that proportion had been reduced to about one-sixth, and last year it had been further reduced to one-eighth.

Thus, the. United States has added — in large measure — freedom from want to our other freedoms ': The entire level of real income has risen -- and more dramatically for the less-privileged than for the over-privileged. And it is the automobile that symbolizes this great advance toward economic and social justice. )• The automobile far from becoming an engine of socialism, has became a A socially prominent couple were at a social leveler.

make an accurate diagnosis and report it. Perhaps most important is the fact that in recent decades a marked change in the composition of the population has occurred. The decline in the number of deaths from the infectious diseases has served to bring many people into the middle and older ages where cancer tmay be expected to develop. When proper allowance is made for these factors, we find only a :small increase in the total rate of cancer mortality."

He also pointed out that close study of the differing types of cancer, distinguishing between the accessible and the inaccessible types, discloses marked difference and evidence that progress is being made in cancer control in the United States.

Females, whose cancers are principally of the accessible type, namely those which affect the breast, the cervix and the uterus, have recorded real improvement in their five-year survival rate after initial treatment and in their death rates in recent years, Dr. Dublin pointed out.

"This is particularly true at the middle and older ages when most cancers occur," he said. "Thus, in the last 15 years, the mortality from cancer among females has declined at most age periods and between 35 and 75 declines were close to 10 per cent.

Among 'males the picture is not as encouraging. Male cancers are largely of the inaccessible type. However, the mortality rate for cancer of the stomach among men has reclined between 20 and 30 per cent at ages 25 to 54.

"Reports coming from the laboratories of official and voluntary agencies concerned with the cancer problem are encouraging," Dr. Dublin said. "The approaches of the biochemist are particularly significant. They are justifying the 'hope that one of these line days the mechanism which starts the growth of wild cells will be discovered and thus controlled soon after its inception."

The American Mosaic One of the most unique experiments in man's social history has been called "The Melting Pot of America" and, more recently, "The American Mosaic."

Never before have people of all races, from every part of the world come together and lived together in such numbers as in the United States. Together, they have formed a oneness larger and stronger than, any single ethnic part.

Yet, at the same time, each part has contributed to — and is responsible foi- the nation's growth, abundance and culture.

When he was Vice President, Richard Nixon said in a talk to the American people: "Have you ever stopped to think who are the American people? Ours is no master race .The people of the United States came from all the countries, all the races, all the religions of the world.

And as they come to their new land, they found a climate of freedom, and in that climate of freedom they molder together the American culture."

The American Culture: We eat pizza, chow mein and shish kabab. We dance to polkas, waltzes and the mambo. Our popular entertainers include Frank Sinatra, Groucho Marx and Danny Thomas— Italian, Jewish, Lebanese. We read, with no thought of race books by Vladimir Nabakov (Russian, American), C. Y. Lee (Chinese American) and Frank Yerby (Negro American).

The American Mosaic: Iroquois Indian steelworkers build skyscrapers in New York City. There are Basque shepherds in Idaho. Chicago has more Poles than Warsaw. And the log cabin — immortalized by Abraham, Lincoln — was brought here by the Swedes.

People make the mistake of thinking that America at any one time was made up of a lot of people from England, or a lot of people from France. America has always been a heterogenous country.

When Benjamin Franklin took the first census of the United States in 1790, he found most of the same minorities there are today. Only the ratio has changed.

Opportunity in the "Melting Pot:" The founders of this country did not say that everyone, through his or her life, would always remain equal. They said that everyone was born equal—that they should have equal opportunities.

Naturally, problems of prejudice do exist in the melting pot of America — problems based on age-old misunderstandings and fear. In any such broad mixture of the world's people — in any

VbSTNIK—WEST', such radical experiment — it would be miraculous if they did not. But these problems are being coped with and are gradually lessenein,g. A, group of distinguished educators, representing the entire country, reported recently as follows: "Since the war discrimination against Orientals has been sharply reduced. Except perhaps in housing they face few disabilities — Much of the unfinished business of democratic society has to do with lowering the economic and educational barriers still confronting Negroes, Mexican Americans who are permanent residents have fewer disabilities, but those who are casual laborers have irregular employment, high mobility. Like other groups during their early residence here, many Puerto Ricans are poor, uneducated, and live in the least desirable sections of the city."

These findigs do not imply that all Americans of these extractions — or even that most of them — face disabilities. The conclusion is simply that some Americans do not yet enjoy the opportunity and advantages of the vast majority. Nonetheless, through prejudice and discrimination remain to be overcome, the American experiment has been truly described as "the most successful and peaceful blending of the world's races ever recorded."

—) • 4• •

Beginnings Of The American 'Melting of Even in its earliest days, America was a melting pot of diverse nationalities and faiths. During almost 170 years of American colonial existence — from 1607 to 1776 — voyagers from Holland, Germany, France, Scotland, Ireland, Sweden an.d elsewhere settled 'in the New World. They left familiar communities in which they had roots to transplant themselves in strange soil thousands of miles away.

Why did they come? They came because the Old World had denied them economic opportunities or had penalized them for their religious beliefs. And they came because America seemed to them a land of unparalleled evonomic opportunity. Uature was especially lavish in America. There was plenty of food in the form of fish in many rivers and streams, in the form of wild fowl and fruit. But what most attracted the first European settlers were the vast stretches of virgin soil and untouched woodlands.

America's natural wealth, however, was not to be had easily. The immigrants had to join in a common struggle with the forces of nature. Differences of

&tram 27 languages and customs faded in significance before the over-riding importance of the common effort to subdue the wilderness. The pioneering life made frequent mutual assistance necessary for survival.

In 1782, shortly after the American Revolution, Hector St. John de Crevecour, a Frenchman who lived for a time in the state of Pennsylvania, made a striking observation. He remarked that one of the notable aspects of this society was the way in which "individuals of all nations are melted into a new race of men." Crevecour declared, "I could point out a family whose. grandfather was an Englishman, whose wife was Dutch, whose son married a Frenchwoman, and whose present four sons have now four wives of different nations."

Of course, despite the diversity of American colonial society, English culture was dominant. But the fact that many non-English national groups were distributed throughout the colonies helped to weaken the ties which bound the colonies to the mother country. As the colonies matured and prospered, they became more self-confident and increasingly resented England's restrictions on their trade, industry and self-rule. In the end, colonists of all nationalities, non-English as well as English, asserted themselves in behalf of liberty for the individual and independence for the country.

For instance, it was the son of a German immigrant, John Petter Zenger, who fought for freedom of the press in colonial New York. A native of Virginia, Patrick Henry, who boldly called for resistance against the British "Give me liberty or give me death!" was of ScotchIrish descent. John Morton, a signer of the Declaration of Independence, traced his ancestry to the first Swedish colony founded in America. And it was Paul Revere, of French Huguenot background, who carried the news of the approach of British troops in Massachusetts — an event that' precipitated armed conflict between colonists and British soldiers and marked the, beginning of the War of Independence.

Out of this unity for a common cause, against a common oppressor, emerged an American tradition of tolerance — tolerance for people of different backgrounds and tolerance for people of different beliefs. ) • 1% • "I don't think I look 30, do you, dear?" asked the wife.

JOBLESS BENEFITS FOUND INADEQUATE, SAYS GOLDBERG Washington, D. C. — Unemployment insurance benefits are inadequate to meet the objectives of the unemployment insurance program, Secretary of Labor Arthur J. Goldberg said in a letter to Representative Wilbur Mills, chairman of the House Ways and Means Committee.

Enclosing a copy of a study of unemployment benefit adequacy made in six ;states between 1954 and 1958, and published by the Department of Labor's Bureau of DrAployment Security, the Secretary pointel out that the surveys t'cund that "the average weekly benefit of the claimant who was head of a family of four amounted to no more than 78 per cent and sometimes as little as 56 p er cent" of the money needed for such absolute necessities as food, shelter, clothing, utilities and medical care.

"In none of the surveys made did the average weekly benefit cover as much as half of the average weekly outlay for all expenses on the part of such families," Secretary Goldberg wrote.

He went on to say that 'although the surveys were made between 1954 and '1958, "subsequent experience generally indicates that unemployment insurance payments are still woefully inadequate.'

The Secretary asKed in his letter that the benefit adequacy study be made a part of the record of Ways and Means Committee hearings on improving the amount and duration of benefits under unemployment insurance laws.
