Militant Priest Is Buried With HOn0rS Civic RefOrmer MOurned By All Glasses In City He
 Kept Clean.

Harrison, N. J., Dec. 6-Remarkable count of the death of the Rev. Morris P. O'Connor, pastor for thirty years of the Church of the Holy Cross there and affectionately known as ''the boss of Harrison because of the influence he wfelded in civic and charitable af- fairs @
 When his body was borne from the parish house to lie in state in his church yesterday afternoon 5000 chill dren of the parochfal school stood in the sunshine outside the church and sang a dirge. The little girls of the huge chorus wore white wells, bound with black crepe and the lads were in black suits, with bands of crape on their arms. More than 5000 persons passed the bier.
 Today all the public schools, well as the parochiaI ones, are closed. Many business places also were shut during the hours of the funeral ser vice. Public buildings, business business structures and private dwell ings are draped in mourning.
 Father O'Connor was a militant civic reformer. He made the rounds of the saloons on Sundays and insisted that they be closed tight. He drove out of Harrison a crowd of gamblers that once operated there. He repeatedly caused the town council to refuse moving picture licenses. Harrison is probably the only American commun- 7ty of 10000 population that has not a moving picture theater.

He had a mother living in

Harmed sealed the letter his eyes
sought her. She was Supremacy

on his way, but more quickly. At
the end of the street he paused.
The man was still leaning against
the rail. Harmed now laughed at
his terror. Obviously this was
some Italian laborer out of a job;
but the nervousness which the in

him the abyss over which his hap
