greatest offering.
Perhaps the most important gift of science
to mankind is the faith in reliable knowledge
as guide for action. Science has proved it
self in the fields of engineering. hygiene,
medicine. Its success encourages us to try
clear thinking with adequate information as
means of solving social and political problems.
"The spirit of science is faith in the power
of truth. The nation needs the moral strength
to think straight In no other way can this
truth. This is true science.
There are those of us who see in the spirit
of science that is, the faith in the value of
tested truth as a guide for action - the
hope of the future of our civilization. In
democratic government it is necessary that
faith in the power of truth shall become our
common heritage before our political life shall
be controlled by reason"
1t is Professor Comptons hope that science
may lead, or aid. in achieving this miracle
of political redemption in the next century -
and early in the century. at that Its supreme
opportunity lies in America because:
Developments of the Nazi program in
Germany have given science new challenge
to prove its value to the world. 1t is one
of the professed detectives of this program
to emphasize those things which are of direct
benefit to their nation. This involves the

 Naugatuck, March 14-Rental of the Gem theater for two nights by the Young Republicans club which sponsored the show "Crazy Poli- tics" for the Naugatuck Ambulance fund benefit here recently cost total of $75, the report of detailed expenses in connection with the play, issued today by President Joseph Talbot of the Young Re- publican club, shows.
 This may be surprising to many in view of the recent agreement between Ralph Pasho, theater les see, and the town under which the Gem was to be available for use for local civic and dramatic activi- ties for 25 nights each year at a rental fee of not more than $15 nightly.
 The report shows net profit of $84.22 from the show which was turned over to John J. Daly, chair man of the Naugatuck ambulance fund.
 1t will be recalled that before MT Pasho was granted the lease, a battle put up by Naugatuck dram atic clubs and other organizations resulted in agreements to the 25 nights $15 weekly maximum charge, and this was incorporated in the lease.
 When asked by The Democrat why the charge was made, Atty.

Formation Of Party
 To Support Priests
 Principles Rurnored
Admirers of Father Coughlin Unusually Active LOcall, Since Start of Open Debate With General Johnson;
 Little Confidence Manifested over Movement

CTS of the radio priest admitted having heard reports of the insti- tuition of the party here, but were unable ot confirm them.
 The opinion was expressed that Father Coughlin, while he might approve the formation of the party and possibly lend advice, would not sanction the use of his name in connection with 1t.
 Blanks Distributed.
 During the, past week an un- usually, large number of applica- tions for membership in the ''Na- ton Union for Social Justice," has been distributed in the city, but whether or not the blanks are the result of increased interest brought about by the recent radio dispute or are the forerunners of a campaign of actual organization could not be determined.
 On the basis of reports from the local telegraph companies follow ing the appeal of Father Coughlin for support in his protest against entry into the World Court, the radiop riest would appear to have a considerable following in Water- bury. More than 400 telegrams were sent out from this city in response to his plea for direct pro- tests to Washington.
 The membership applications be- ing circulated pledge slpport to the union land to it's principles as set down in general by Father Coughlin in his radio address de- livered on Armistice day, Novem. Der II. 1914" Applicants are ask ed to spend their efforts to pub licize these principles and to work through the agency of the Nation- al Union for Social Justice to put these principles into practice" !" Each applicant receives as many blanks as he may desire for dis tribution together with notification of his acceptance as a member of the union.
 Preamble Given
 On the back of the application blank is the preamble and prin- ciples of the union. outlining Is points advocated by Father Cough lin. Several local stores are dis playing signs calling attention to the fact that the blanks may be obtained inside.
