I hope your’re enjoying them with hikes, weenie roasts, and the like. — 76-V — Be sure to vote on November 6th. There are many people behind the Iron Curtain who can’t exercise such a privilege, and we who have such freedom should do so to the hilt and ask others to do likewise. Your vote will help beat Communism. Good voting to Mr. Horvath in Cleveland, Ohio! — 76-V — We have three sick members this month, and we wish them a speedy recovery. They are Alexander Kaszonyi, Joseph Miko, and Michael Stasko. — 76-V — It is with Tegret that we announce the death of one of our very respected members, Stephen Pfauzer, 126 East Wellens St., Philadelphia.

And so a painting of this famous statue will be found on the Federation Christmas stamp (soon to be released). The art work was done by WILLIAM PENN member Frank Horvath, 4840 N. Fairhill Street, Philadelphia, who, in the interest of brotherhood, has donated his time and talent, without fee, to the Federation and to all Hungarians.
