1947 / Verhovay Journal
PAGE 8 Verhovay Journal MARCH 26, 1947 Branch Managers Please Note! — Official Announcement. — Because no summary forms are furnished with the new Juvenile Order Monthly Reports, 30 extra sheets had been mailed at the beginning of this year to each and every manager of Juvenile branches. These summaries were to be completed in duplicate and attached to both copies of the Juvenile Monthly reports. Due to some misunderstanding, several of our branch-managers are using these sheets for summarizing the dues taken up in the Senior Order while not attaching summary forms to the Juvenile Order Monthly Reports mailed to the Home Office. Please, note that the back of the last page of the Senior Order Monthly Report is to be used for summarizing purposes. The forms sent to the Juvenile managers are to be used only for summarizing the Juvenile Order dues. The original of the summary is to be attached to and mailed to the Home Office with the Juvenile Order Monthly report, and the copy is to be retained at the Branch. The cooperation of our branch-managers will be sincerely appreciated by THE HOME OFFICE. Hungary Is Not In The Balkans (Continued from page 6.) In the 1925 AMERICANA ANNUAL you publish this on page 71: “BALKAN STATES. See Albania; Bulgaria; Greece; Jugoslavia; Rumania; Turkey.” However, in the 1944 AMERICANA ANNUAL, I find this on page 79: “BALKAN STATES. Because for some decades the Balkan States, including Albania, Bulgaria, Greece, Rumania, Turkey, and Jugoslavia have been a source of wars involving, or threatening to involve, their large neighbors, this area with increasing frequency has come to be referred to as the ‘powder keg of Europe’.” This wording is somewhat different from your 1925 Edition, because your contributor cleverly infers that Balkan States include states other than those enumerated without, of course, being specific. Scanning now into the contributions regarding Hungary, your 1925 AMERICANA ANNUAL says this on page 355: “HUNGARY — A country of eastern-central Europe, formerley a kingdom and united with Austria to form the dual monarchy of Austria-Hungary.” * I Your 1944 AMERICANA ANNUAL publishes practically the same: “HUNGARY — A country of east-central Europe, which, with Austria, once formed the dual monarchy of Austria-Hungary.” Therefore, I strongly maintain that Hungary is in Central Europe and not in the Balkans. Prof. Roucek should confine himself to the Balkans or to his own Czechoslovakia. I suggest that you examine in the future the “American educators” who recommended Prof. Roucek, and determine to the best of your ability, what prompts them in their advice, and to what extent they have been influenced. In the recent past some of our foreign correspondents have touched upon Hungarian problems and, though by no means presenting a complimentary picture of Hungary at all times, gave an overall clear picture of the difficulties that beset the Magyars. These men in the press services can better be read and appreciated than a deliberate purveyor of “propagandist history” such as Roucek. America is a great country and your choice of specialists and authorities is* equally great. Sincerely, STEPHEN HUZIANYI SMILES WRONG LOCATION “As I understand the case.” said his Honor, “you and your husband had a drunken altercation and you were kicked in the ensuing rumpus.” “No. suh, Judge,” replied Mandy, “Ah was kicked in de stumjnick.” Two men left a banquet together; they had dined exceptionally well. “When you get thome,” said one, “if you don’t want to disturb your family, undress at the foot of the stairs, fold your clothes neatly and creep up to your room.” The next day they met at lunch. “How did you get on?” asked the adviser. “Rotten,” replied the other. “I took off all my clothes at the foot of the stairs, as you told me, and folded them up neatly. I didn’t make a sound. But when I reached the top of the stairs— it was the ‘L’ station.” Him: “Did you hear about the accident on the streetcar?” Her: “No. What happened?” Him: “A man had his eye on a seat and a woman sat on it.” Patient: “I’m in love with you. I don’t want to get well.” Nurse: “You won’t The doctor saw you kissing me—he’s in love with me, too.” Young Woman (holding out hand):: “Will you please tell me how to pronounce the name Directory OF DISTRICT MANAGERS AND LOCAL ORGANIZERS District I: FRANK j.
