home in Westchester and an un- pretentious house in Manhattan.
 He has a host of friends, and can | be the life of party. He reads | books on economics and is proud of being an honorary member of the American Philosophical So- ciety.
 The people who really know | him best probably are his two young sons, sherman and Richard, and their chums. Clifford likes to toss aside his business cares and
 take them as his only companions on vacation trips.
 In fact, Gifford's associates know of no one half so successful
 who can get so completely away
 from his job. His office desk is always clear, yet he never seems to be in a hurry. His genius for
 generalship allows him to delegate
 responsibility to the right men.
 He directs by suggestion rather
 than by order, and is quick to praise iniative and assump-
 ton of authority. Clifford hates

 the world were laid end to end, , he'd cut it.

A QUIET MAN TACKLES THE JOB
 OF AIDING THE JOBLESS
By NEA Service

New York - The man chosen by President Hoover to direct the nations activities in unemploy- ment relief is not a philanthropist in terms of money, but of thought and service. Walter 8. Clifford never has been identified with spectacular good deeds and the signing of huge checks for charity. Yet in all probability, according to his associates, he has done as much for charity as any other i'm dividual.
 clifford is an executive, a mob ilizer of forces and money. He has given his time and thought to the coordination of other mems power. These qualities applied to business made him president, at 40, of the worlds largest corpor- and Telegraph Company. They landed him in the list of the 59 rulers of America" compiled by James W. Gerard, former U. S.. Am bassador to Germany.
 The same qualities put to patri- otic purpose during the war led Clifford to be made head of the Council for National Defense.
 Made Work for Thousands For years he has been an off, cial, and now is president, of the Charity Organization Society of New York. Clifford believes in charity, but most of all in it's in telligent application. His society is concerned only with the general activities of the hundreds of char itable organizations, scientifically coordinating their work, avoiding waste and duplication, stretching each dollar as far as 1t will go. Last winter he served on the Presidents committee on relief and was one of the chief figures on the New York City committee which provided the money foi honorable work for thousands ol men. The public probably never will know how much actual cash Walter Clifford contributed. That to him, is unimportant. His in terest was in seeing that the greatest number of men received a chance for their own rehabilita- ton by honest toll.
 1 Always Worked
 The Presidents choice in the present emergency doesn't know l himself what it is to be without a job. He worked so hard in Har- yard that he completed his course. at the age of 19. He worked SC hard at his $10-a-week job with the Western Electric Company al Chicago that he went in rapid suc- cession to assistant secretary and assistant treasurer. He was chiel statistician of the American Tele- phone and Telegraph Company al 23.
 When 1t was evident that the United States might have to enter the war, Clifford was selected to take account of the industrial re- sources of the country. Nobody knew how many factories there were, or what they were capable of making.
 Clifford found out. He learned
The Waterbury Democrat., 1931-08-21

so much about the nations indus tries that President Wilson chose him to direct the Council of Ma tional Defense. In 1918 they sent him abroad to organize the Inter- allied Munitions Board.
 Back with the A. T. & T., he was made comptroller, vice-presi- dent, executive president and finally president of the $4,000,00O,- O00,000 corporation. He had learned to think in terms of mil lions of dollars and thousands o1 persons. His company had 35O,- 900 employees.
 There are some who will tell you now that Walter Clifford never
 would have gone far in his career
 if friendly appreciation had not rewarded his early efforts. For he is graced by no particularly com
 manding personality. He never
 has been anything but quiet and
 unassuming. He never has been
 czar; he is actually non-aggres-
 sive. He has no consuming en- thusiasms, even in his leisure. He
 doesn't play golf, or buy expensive
 yachts or go in for millOn-dollar
 homes or art collecting. He has q

FORMER PRIVATE
 OF SPAIN SENDS
 ANOTHER LETTER
Says Catholic Church Will Reject Some Recent EdiCts-Threats of Ex= communication
BY WILLIAM H. LANDER United Press Staff COrrcsDOndentl

| JnIICu ITcSS oluH SOTTSopOHuChtI Madrid, Aug -(UP)-Formal refusal of the Catholic church to recognize validity of recent decrees by Spain's republican government affecting the status of religious or ders, was contained in pastoral letter issued by the deported prim- ate, Cardinal Segura. we have witnessed in our coun- try the proof that it is returning to brutalized organism with giant strides" the primate's letter said. It was issued from the monastery of Our Lady of Bel-Loc, in France, where he is residing.
 The rights demanded by the Catholic church were enumerated l in the letter, including those grant l ed by Jesus Christ, such as buying, possessing, keeping and adminis- tering all classes of temporal prop erty."
 A significant statement that the Catholic church intended to de- ] fend its rights concluded the stern, ly worded document.
 "In defense of it's rights" the letter said, "the church does not possess armies nor airplanes, but 1t has two weapons. The first lies in the hands Of the divine founder. The second is in canonical punish ments."
 Cardinal Segura added that "his- tory confirms the efficacy of eX- communications" This was consid- cred an indirect threat to excom- municate the republican leaders in Spain who have sought to end the influence exerted by the church l under the monarch of Alfonso XIII now also an exile in France. The constitutional assembly, now in session, has considered proposals for dissolution of Spanish religious orders and naturalization of church property. The government advocated a policy of separation of church and state. Cadinal Segura was deported on charges of poli- tical activity.
