Sixth Birthday

BY FRANCIS II. INSLEY
Where deep in scattered flowers she
stands.
And chides my more deliberate
going
She is nearer far to beauty grow
ing
Than the fairest queen Of foreign
lands.
The shining blooms are like golden
sands,
And a shaft Of sunlit fire is
glowing
Where deep in scattered flowers she
stands
And chides my more deliberate
going.
Her voice is laughter as she de-
mands
That the very wind for her be
blowing.
She dreams a dream long past
my knowing
And gathers blossoms with both
hands
Where deep in scattered flowers she
stands.

would be worth more every year
than all our oil and gas was worth
while it lasted.
Will we continue to waste all the
peoples money on local expendi-
lures, or will we spend all the peo-
pies money for the good of all the
people?

Saturday, there was no sugar in
the store room of the Central
Housing Foundation. The question
ariseS-why? You can't say that the
men waste sugar, because it is
issued to each one tablespoon to
the oats, and the same amount in
his coffee once a day. Now is it the
fault of the buyer that suger runs
short, or do you save it for the
privileged characters" Of which yc'l
have quite a number?
On Sept. 25, members of Women's
Crusade visited the above-named
agency to study social work and
luncheon was served consisting of
roast betf, brown gravy, brown
potatoes, carrot and cabbage salad
chocolate pudding and coffee, and it
was said to the press that the meal
cost them 5 cents and the homeless
men get the same type of meal free.
Our menu for that day and date
consisted of plain boiled macaroni,
half boiled potatoes, an imitation
mot very good at that chocolate
pudding and cold water. Why make
those statements?
Now it is possible that some of
the men get better food than the
others, "the select few" One sure
thing, ham never has been served
at regular meal time
Now we are all here together, so
why discriminate in the matter of
food?

in the main channel all the way to
the Ohio river.
The appropriation now asked for
to build levees for only local benefit
would go a long way toward making
reservoirs for the benefit of all and
forever set aside the need for levees.
AS reservoirs are built on the
tributaries, the flood menace on all
streams lessons until the main chan
nels would carry all of the flood
water not reserved in the reservoirs
to the sea, with no need whatever
for the levees, and more, the people
in the lowlands could bring their

TT would be foolish to deny that
i at this moment the national re-
covery act stands in grave danger.
But if it is curtailed or killed the
really fatal blows will not be struck
by the small radical groups but by
the large, powerful and articulate
conservative agencies.
Concerning the licensing phase in
the act I am willing to admit that
there is some possibility Of debate
as to the question of whether or
not the freedom Of the press has
been put in danger I will go fur
Their and say that I know a few
publishers who are questioning this
part of the act with high motiva-
ton and entire sincerity But it
may be pointed out that the provi-
sion which empowers the President
of the United States to revoke a
license expires on June IS, 1894.
Congress will have to pass on it
again at that time. AS an imme-
date issue it is certainly prepos-
ferrous to assume that Franklin D.
Roosevelt would in these few months
give the slightest cause for a con-
gressional revolt at such an early
date.

Spread ont q Little Thin

NOR has the somewhat over
~ staged agony of fear about
suppression been confined wholly to
the licensing system. A few gentle
men have been frank enough to say
that when they speak of freedom
Of the press" they really mean the
open shop.
Although I am wholly for the
closed shop, I am not sufficiently
dogmatic to declare that there is
no possibility Of debate upon the
issue. I merely say it does not in
any way touch the question Of free
press.
Both A. F. Of L. trade unions and
newspaper writer's guilds have gone
on record to testify their deterrni-
nation not only to keep but to make
a free press in the United States.
I see no reason to accept the con-
tention that the publishers consti-
tute the only group which really
means it.

It Seems
to Me
by HAYWOOD BROUN,

NEW YORK, Oct PSI should
' think" said a newspaper
friend of mine, that you ought to
be right in the middle Of this fight
for the freedom of the press. I al
ways thought that was 8 subject
right down your alley. but I find
you doing a column in which you
say the whole thing is stuff and
nonsense"
Possibly I expressed myself with
sufficient clarity. I have not been
converted to the belief that free
speech and free press are bourgeois
sentimentalitieS which should be
swept away by either little pigs or
any large and evil wolf.
But decidedly I do question the
sincerity of many Of the publishers
when they raise the cry of freedom
of the press" as a smoke screen be-
hind which they hope to sabotage
NRA. If vital stakes were not at
issue the present situation would
have its comic aspects. For in
stance, it is a little startling to find
the New York Herald Tribune and
the Daily Worker standing shoulder
to shoulder in their opposition to
General Johnson and his blue eagle.

New Record Set
 Up at Palace
10000 See "TugbOat Annie" With Marie
 Dressler

Yesterday, the opening day of Marie Dressler and Wallace Beery in "Tugboat Annie" the current feature at the Palace theater, set up new box office figures in Water bury. Very close to 10000 patrons of this popular thcater, attended the opening days performances, and with the large capacity of this theater they were handled without any confusion or inconvenience to them. This is impossible in any other theater in this vicinity, as the next largest is less than half the seating capacity of the Palace and crowding and being jostled around while endeavoring to att tend is Q certainty.
 And what comments were made as this great army of theatergoers left this magnificent production. on the screen and Metro-Goldwyn- Mayer themselves admit, even with all of their stars, that the fa- Marie Dreslser, and if she was ever popular then a great many new laurels are bound to be heaped on her brow after this perform ance. She is truly magnificent and with the capable assistance of Wallace Beery, 8 performance re- suits that will live green in your memory.
 There are laughs, tears and real thrills in "Tugboat Annie" and it is the answer to the demands of the public for another, picture like "Min and Bilr' and here Is one that goes that memorable film one better. There are hilarious quar- rels,i between Annie as the captain of a tugboat. and her shiftless but good-natured husband. Mother love furnishes poignant heart in- terest and there is a tremendous dramatic climax in the amazing episode in the engine room.
 The greatest program ever shown in a Waterbury theater, that is the proud boast of the Pal ace theater and one that all will have a hard time to follow, in their search for good and at the same time clean entertainment. voiced in a language that all can understand, nothing sophisticated, just entertainment to the last de- gree, presented by two of the greatest performers that the screen has ever given us, "Tugboat Annie" will prove to be the film that you have always dreamed about.
 In addition to the feature, there is also a program of short sub jects, selected for their entertain ment, and in these days of medi- ocre nicture getting. what some critics are willing to call their stamp of approval, 4 stars, 1t be- comes rather hackneyed. as there aren't enough stars in the heavens to place on the glorious breast of "Tugboat Annie" Performances of this picture are at 12:45; 3:00,

Another Language
 Opening at State
Helen Hayes and Robert Montgomery Starred
 in Big Success

Characters that might step out of your family album hold the cen- ter of the stage in Another Lan- guage" starring Robert Montgom- cry and Helen Hayes, at the State today.
 The picture, filmed by Metro Goldwyn-Mayer from the Rose Franken stage hit that ran for more than a year on Broadway, is a study in middle-class family life. It deals frankly with the eternal problem of marriage and relatives. In this case 1t is the Hallams, the stodgy family of the husband, that makes all the trouble.
 In the role of the young wife who is more interested in art than washing dishes, Miss Hayes achieves the most touching and human performance of her screen career, in the opinion of this re- viewer. Her shading of the char acter is superb and she handles the difficult situations as convincingly as though they were her very own.
 Montgomery, as the husband still tied to his mothers apron strings, finds a role quite different from his customary screen parts. He manages to inject sympa- thetic tolerance into it, despite the motivation of the story which burdens him with considerable grouchiness. Montgomery gives a sterling performance and wins fresh laurels for so brilliant a por- trayal of an intellectual character. , The late Louise Closer Hale scores in the mother role. Hers is 0 "heavy" assignment and she plays 1t to the utmost acidity. This, her last picture marks striking departure in characterization. John Beal. who played the part of Jerry in the original stage cast, repeats his love-sick role in the picture. He is personable young man who appears a screen bet, if he decides to turn his talents in that direction.
 E. H. Griffith, who has given the screen such splendid pictures Animal Kingdom" was at the play with fawless faith, adding to it scenes that widened the scope of action and speeded the tempo considerably.
 There are many hilarious mo- ments in the picture, despite the dramatic structure upon which it Is built, and the supporting cast was superbly selected to complete the family picture about which the story revolves. Included in the cast are Henry Travers, whom we remember happily from Reunion in Vienna" The surrounding pro- gram includes Louis Sobel, former Waterbury newspaperman, in Down Memory Lane," a comedy, cartoon, screen vodvil and latest world news events.

Bing Crosby in
 Garden Picture
Three Features in Gala
 Week-End Bill

"The Secrets of Wu Sin," the latest invincible screen drama, scheduled to begin three day run at New Garden theater this Sunday, is described as a colorful news- paper story laid in the Chinatown of a large American city. The lovely and popular Lois Wilson heads the impressive cast in the role of a girl reporter working on secret investigation of coolie smuggling racket. Featured in her support are Grant Withers, who plays the courageous young editor; ] Dorothy Revier, Robert Warwick and Toshia Mori, Nipponese beauty, selected by the Wampas as one of 1 the current seasons Baby Stars, be- cause of her splendid work in Bit ter Tea of General Yen." The film, which is said to catch all the strange fascination of it's colorful locale, was adapted by William Me- Grath from a story by Basil Dickey and produced under the personal supervision of George R. Batchel- Ter.
 Madame Racketeer returns to the screen in the companion feature in a new racket of giggle-water and laughing-gas in "A Lady's Pro- fession," Paramount picture with Alison Shipworth, Roland Young, and Sari Maritza. Brittle humor, infectious laughter wriggle through the story as Miss Skipworth, in the role of a British lady, leaves the safety of her ancestral castle to solve the problems of an impover- ished nobleman who persists in leaping from scrape to scrape. Ro- land Young is excellent as the nit wit Englishman. Sari Maritza and Kent Taylor. the new Paramount find, play the romantic leads, while the irrepressible comics, Roscoe Karns and Warren Hymer, com plete the laugh sextette. It's one of those delightful comedies that Paramount does so well. full of quips and sallies that prance side by side from start to finish. Joy ously entertaining, you'll like the cast of screen experts and the man. ner in which they interpret the humor.
 The third feature on this bill is "Sing Bing Sing" featuring Bing Crosby with Florine Mckinney and Irving Bacon. It is one of Mack Sennett's very best star comedies.
 Surrounding these three fine fea- lures will be a choice selection of short subjects.
 Coming Wednesday and Thurs day is "King of Jazz'' and Parole Girr' and on Friday and Saturday " Her Body Guard" and "The Big Cage"

 Stars at Strand Joel McCrea Playing Male Lead in Bed of
 Roses"

Constance Bennett's latest star ring vehicle, Bed of Roses" heads the double feature program at Warmers Strand Sunday, Monday and Tuesday! She is given capable support by Joel McCrea. as leading man, also John Halliday and Pert Kelton.
 Picturesque and varied back grounds, ranging from the drab in- teriors of reformatory to the Mardi Gras carnival in New Or leans, add glamor and spice to the swift moving drama of Bed of Roses" Released from the deten- ton home, Lorry Evans proceeds to New Orleans. uses garter appeal on Stephen Paige, and travels di- rectly into the wealthy patrons penthouse and pocketbook.

Remorseful, Lorry seeks out hand some Dan, captain of a towboat on the dark Mississippi, and they fall in love with each other. Always confident that she can have her cake and eat it, Lorry prepares for marriage. Her plans encounter a snag when cautioned against mar riage without revealing her past.
 The volatile temperament, allure and beauty of Miss Bennett are in greater evidence in her splendid characterization in Bed of Roses" She injects an animation and spirit into the role of Lorry Evans that makes the character live on the screen.

Ayres stakes his entire fortune on the "big race" and the suspense built up for this thrilling sequence is admir- able.
 Ayres, more romantic and sym pathetic than ever, has role tailor-made for him. You'll like him, as the oapeing day audience enthusiastically demonstrated. His performance has an appeal that borders on genuine dramatic genius.
