LETTER SZERETET KONYHA Cleveland, Ohio William Penn Fraternal Association May 2, 1959 436-442 Fourth Ave. Pittsburgh 19, Pa. Editors of the William Penn Journal: Gentlemen: The Szeretet Konyha Committee (Care Kitchen) of Cleveland, Ohio here­by thanks the William P'enn Fraternal Association, Branch 14-V of Cleve­land, Ohio, in the name of the destitute freedom fighters, and the donors and volunteer workers of the kitchen, for the support and aid which enabled the Szeretet Konyha to begin and carry on its work for almost six months. The current slack in employment was felt first by the freedom fighters. Without seniority and without qualifications for aid in any manner, and without friends or relatives, these young men, and in many instances children, were found greatly in need of the most basic necessities. The Hungarian housewives and business men of the Buckeye Road neighborhood of Cleveland assumed the cost and responsibility of feeding these youngsters. Without any hesitation, William Penn Branch 14-V of­fered its facilities free of charge toward this effort. WITHOUT THIS SUPPORT BY THE WILLIAM PENN, IT WOULD HAVE BEEN IMPOSSIBLE TO CARRY ON THIS ACTIVITY OF HANDING OUT THOUSANDS OF MEALS TO THESE UNFORTUNATE Y’OUNGSTERS. There are many reasons for the statement, and those closest to the problem readily understand them. Subsequently an English class was established for the freedom fighters, for which the William Penn Branch 14-V again offered its facilities. The result of all of this is that these fugitives from Communist terror, for the first time in their lives perhaps, felt the warmth of friendship and fraternalism; many of them can’t understand or can’t believe it yet, but in time they will realize the great service that the William Penn rendered. The Committee of the Szeretet Konyha wishes to publicly acknowledge its gratitude, and it can do this most appropriately through the William Penn’s own official publication. Indirectly, every member of the William Fenn family makes such services as these possible. Gratefully, Kocsany Mihalyné, Elizabeth Galgany, John Palasics, Margaret Kiss, Soos András, Kovács Janos of the Szeretet Konyha Committee.

IGNATIUS KOTROCZO (Branch 103-R) .. . presentation by Director Czernai. JOHN MASER (Branch 92-V) .... could not attend because of illness and had been cited privately. JOSEPH SMITH (Branch 58-K)... award posthumously accepted by his widow at an earlier date. Those among these honored veteran members present requested permis­sion to voice their public thanks, which was granted. Each in his own emotion-filled words expressed his gratitude for the Association’s highest award. Honor to whom honor was due still remained to be fulfilled, and so the TWO REMAINING CHARTER MEMBERS OF BRANCH 226-V, MRS. EUGENE Kl LA and FRANK TOTH, received from the Associa­tion a carafe and a wallet, respec­tively. Mrs. Kula was unable to be present at the function. Now the well-known sister-brother dancing- and singing team of There­sa and Joseph Czernai, children of Director and Mrs. Gabriel Czernai of Duqnesne, Pennsylvania, entertained with several numbers. It was a thrill­ing sight to watch them. This was followed by benediction offered by the Rev.'Louis Nagy, pas­tor of the First Hungarian Reformed Church, McKeesport, and the singing of the Hungarian National Anthem by the audience led by Miss Stipko­­vits. All the speeches were short, as promised by toastmaster Sabo, and so the dance began early and lasted until well after midnight. Pee Wee Beres and his orchestra played. Here we list the public introduc­tions made at various times during the program: Dr. Samuel C. Gomory, William Judge Seeks Nomination Judge John S. Gonas, about whom this publication has written several times in connection with his various notable activities, is running for the office of United States Senator. The South Bend, Indiana resident and a member of Branch 132-V, a former State Senator and State Re­presentative, is now Judge of the St. Joseph County Probate-Juvenile Court. His administrative experience con­sists of ten years in the legislature and ten years on the judicial bench. Judge Gonas, as jurist, legislator, lawyer, engineer and fraternalist, has gained both national and internation­al recognition. His work in juvenile problems and social psychiatry has led him to advocate and establish child welfare programs; he was a de­legate to the International Juvenile Court Congress in Brussels, Belgium in 1954, and, at the request of the U.N. Secretary General, he partici­pated in the United Nations Confe­rence in Geneva, Switzerland in 1955. Democratic leaders who know Judge Gonas say that if his nomina­tion is based on personality, qualifi­cation and experience, he will surely win, but if Machiavellism prevails, he will lose.

Congratulations, Branch 226-V, on your very happy and successful get­­together, and congratulations, Awar­dees, on your acquisition of the Illus­trious Citation and Gold Embbm for your faithful and loyal service to Blanch 226-V and to the Association!--------------------------­IMMIGRATION AND NATURALIZATION Question: I have just been natura­­ized. My husband, who is not an American citizen, has a job abroad. Will it endanger my citizenship if I join him abroad ? Answer: While you can safely visit your husband, any extended residence abroad may well endanger your citizenship, since you have only been natualized recently. The law provides that if a naturalized citizen takes up residence in a foreign country within five years after na­turalization, this is prima facie evidence that such person did not intend to reside permanently in the United States and unless he can prove the contrary, his naturaliza­tion may be revoked and set aside. In general a naturalized citizen loses his citizenship if he resides con­tinuously for three years in the country of which he was formerly a national, or in which the place of his birth is located, or for five years in any other foreign state or states.---------vaq Lft-’--------­LETTERS FROM AMERICA Every letter sent abroad — letters to friends and relatives overseas — helps give a picture of America. Des­cribe everyday examples of demo­cracy, things that happen to you, your family and your neighbors. Friends and relatives abroad know they can believe your letters. That’s why your words are important. Make them count.
