Mary Morgitch Robert u St.Louis,Mo.. Gdja. Robert je majka 11ero dijece.Uvijek je bila aktivna u pomaganju Hrvatske Zupe S. Josip-a u St.Louis-u kao i mnogih drugih dobrotvornih stvari. Ona je uvijek donirala i to radi i dan danas pomagajuci Croatian Scholarship u California te je pomagala i skolovala mnoge decke i djevojke u St.Louis-u Hrvatskog podrietla. Kad je poceo rat u Hrvatskoj ta DIVA Velikog Srca je pomogla mnoge Hrvatice i Hrvate u nevolji,. Koliko se sijecam je darovala pok. Kardinalu Kuharicu $50.000.00, isto toliko Kardinalu Puljicu,Biskupu Komarici mislim $25.000.00 i tako redom. Donirala je lijepe sume novca i za NFCA i CAA, bit cu slobodan i reci da je donirala milione dolara za Humanitarne pomoci i za Hrvate u Hrvatskoj i Bosni i Hercegovini. Ona je danas 83 godine .Jedna njezina kcer, Janet Robert, se natjece za Congress women u Minnesota State. Ovo nam je sad vrlo zgodna prilika, svima nama Hrvatima ili Amerikancima Hrvatskog podrietla, da kazemo VELIKO HVALA Gdji. Mary Robert, da svi pomognemo njezinoj kceri Janet Robert da dobije za Congresswomen. Ujedno bi imali jos jedan glas u Congress-u vise uz George Radanovich i Dennis Kucinich.

Dali postoji mogucnost da mi Hrvati toje Amerikanci Hrvatskog Podrijetla , u iducih 10 godina, nadjemo nacina da jos 10 Amerikanaca Hrvatskog podrietla postanu Congressmani. Mislim da bi se i CAA i NFCA morali dobro zamisliti na toj temi. Bilo bi jako unosno da se u svakoj Hrvatskoj koloniji formira po nekoliko osoba koje ce uzeti i probati skupiti novcanu pomoc za Janet Robert. Ja obecajem da cu to uciniti ovdje u Cleveland-u za Janet Robert i Tony Peraica koji se natjece za Cook County Commissioner-a. Sto god skupimo poslat cemo pola-pola za Janet Robert i Tony Peraica.

(H) TURSKA 1957 – HRVTASKA 200?
Turska 1957 Hrvatska 200? Re: NYTimes.com Article: Turkey Abolishes Death Penalty Moj prijatelj i kolega je sa cijelom obitelji otac,majka i stero djece, (najstarija 6.lijecnica bila je udata i ostala je u Zagrebu) odselili su u Tursku 1957.g.Vec u to vrijeme “zaostali” Turci davali su povlastice povratnicima ili vlastitim drzavljanima-(oni su bili rodjeni u Pljevljima) kada su se useljavali u Tursku tako da su im oprostili porez-malim poduzetnicima na 5 godina,a onda neznatno povecali slijedecih 5 god.Dakle Turska je vec onda znala da ce na taj nacin privuci natrag u zemlju male poduzetnike koji ce razviti tamo svoj biznis i unijeti novac koji su zaradili u svijetu.Mi smo puno blesaviji.Jos uvijek treba bezbroj potvrda,oderu te porezom,a da i ne govorim da su ukinuli cak i one povlastice za povratnike koje je dala bivsa Juga.Da ne govorim o tome da se moira potkupiti razne cinovnike i cinovnicice kako bi dali svoj blagoslov kod bilo kakve transakcije.Zalosno ali istinito.

(E) Serbia thretens Croatia with arms – Storm 2003?
Yugoslavia says it will not withdraw its forces from the border with Croatia STORM 2003 ? Op-ed Are they asking for another Storm? Croatia should take it’s own land as soonas possible. War REPARATIONS would stop them in EVEN thinking of attackinganybody EVER. International body should make sure that Serbia (Yugoslavia), ifhaving them at all, keep their arms 75 Kilometers from Croatian border. PERIOD.They produced terror and misery in the last century, therefore should be placedin a position of military inferiority. With a law or with a force, whatever ittakes. Get a life ! Nenad Bach CROWN Friday, 2 August, 2002, 15:16 GMT 16:16 UK Yugoslavia sticks to its guns Yugoslav soldiers still patrol, seven years after the war Yugoslavia says it will not withdraw its forces from the border with Croatia despite calls for the area to be demilitarised. Yugoslav Foreign Minister Goran Svilanovic was responding after an appeal by Croatian Prime Minister Ivica Racan for troops to be removed. This follows an incident where Yugoslav soldiers fired on a boat carrying Croatian officials towards a disputed island on the River Danube. The island is controlled by Yugoslavia, but Croats have property claims there. Sarengradska Ada – an uninhabited island of forests and fields covering about 900 hectares (2,220 acres) – is one of a number of disputed border areas. Yugoslavia is planning to replace its troops along the border with a new security force, but this has been delayed. Correspondents say Sunday’s incident is an indication of how tense relations between the two countries remain, despite a recent diplomatic thaw. Stalled plans The Yugoslav foreign minister rejected a call for troops to be removed from the Sarengradska Ada area, saying that in line with regulations it will be secured by the army. Ivica Racan: Not satisfied with personal apology Mr Svilanovic said plans to replace the army with a special force, perhaps border police, had been put on hold while negotiations continue over the future of the two republics which make up Yugoslavia – Serbia and Montenegro. The existing federation is due to be replaced at the end of the year by a new union. No-one was hurt in Sunday’s incident, and the Croats involved were released after being interrogated. Croatian officials said they had been on their way to the island on a trip pre-arranged with Serbian representatives. Serbian Prime Minister Zoran Djindjic phoned his Croatian counterpart to offer a personal apology for the incident, but Mr Racan said this was not enough and demanded a public apology. Croatia declared independence from Yugoslavia in 1991, leading to a bitter conflict with Serbs within Croatia who were opposed to the secession. Croatia also backed forces opposed to Serbia in the Bosnian war. Yugoslavia has controlled Sarengradska Ada since war broke out, but people from Sarengrad, in eastern Croatia, say it belongs to Croatia.
