<head>Biographical/Historical Note</head>
<p>Sloga (Flederation of United Serbs-Unity) was founded in Cleveland, Ohio, by Michael Pubin when representatives of Srpskog Pravoslavnog Saveza Srbobran, Prvog Srpskog Dobrotvornog Saveza (Chicago) and Prvog Crnogorskog Saveza (Chicago) met in 1909 to form Savez Sjedinjenji Srba-Sloga. Its home office was established in New York City. In 1920, a group of lodges split from Sloga and formed the organization "Srbadija" (New York) and the organization "Jedinstvo" (Cleveland, Ohio). Sloga merged with Srbobran to from Srbobran-Sloga in 1921 (Pittsburgh, Pa.); in 1929, it became part of the Serb National Federation.</p>
