 The airplaneS dipped in salute over hangar 6, where Miss Earhart often kept her ship before taking of last June from Miami on a 'round- the world flight which ended some- where in mid-Pacific.
 Then Jacqueline Cochran, holder of the worlds speed decord for wom- en pilots, said that if that flight ended in eternity, we can mourn her loss but not regret her effort"
 Others spoke. some of whom held out the possibility that Miss Ear hart may have been rescued by some fishing boat and be still alive. But the spirit of the entire service was one of mourning.

RUSSIA TOPIC OF
 MINISTER'S TALK

The industrial improvements in Russia of the present day in con- parison with methods and general conditions of 20 years ago, were described last night during the reg ular meeting at Mill Plain Union church by Rev. J. George Butler of Summerville Episcopal church, New Haven. MT. Butler travelled throughout Russia during the past summer and made a survey of the advancement.
 He said that although Russia Is a Christian nation, a formal relig- ion is not encouraged, anti-relig- ious sentiment has been moved aside to some extent during the past few years. The speaker erll- phasized the immense size of the country and the many resources which can be provided. He said that 1t would be many years before Russia could become military power, since the present strength of the army is required at border stations and cncampments.

Ministers Open
 Attack On Bund
Newsmen Find Proposed SOuthbury Camp Rich
 SOurce-z -zOning Meeting Is Eagerly Awaited

"Let US therefore take council to- gether, my friends, and lend our ef- forts to the cause of the righteous ness of Christ, beginning with our community, and extending to the uttermonst parts of the world"
 Thus, the Rev. M. E. N. Lindsay, pastor of the South Britatin Con- gregational church, concluded his sermon yesterday, sermon in which he attacked the German American Bund and its proposed settlement on the land recently purchased at Southbury, in the section known as "Kettletown." The Nazi movement and the German government were described as epitomizing "an anti Christ" and the Rev. MT. Lindsay saw in the plan as stated, Gin Southbury) to use Sundays to clear ground for the camp--a splendid Christian gesture"
 Just prior to his appeal that his hearers "lend our efforts to the cause of righteousness" MT. Lind say is quoted as saying:
 We are not helpless in this mat ter thank God. There are several things we may do. We may urge that all aliens connected with this move, if any, be returned as unde- sirable. Our representatives in Con- gress may be appealed to on this point. Also, we may urge them to devise such legislation as may be needed to cope with such move ments when they show semi-mili- tary character. Again. we may en- quire of the immigration courts if a naturalized American citizen has not violated his oath of citizenship when he indulges in the pastime of fostering the veiw of a foregn poten- tate or country, loyalty to which he had forever forsworn. If he has violated his oath (of citizenship he therefore forefeits his citizenship rights. These things we may do, as a defense against the whole movement by writing our representatives in Congress as well as the governor of our state, which I have already done"
 It was here that the Rev. MT. Lindsay concluded with the appeal, "lend our efforts to the cause of righteousness of Christ, beginning with our community, and extending to the uttermost parts of the world"
 So, on the eve of the zoning meet ing proposed by the selectmen of Southbury, ferment formed in South Britain and other communities of the state today over the purchase Of land in Kettletown by the German American Bund as site for a camp. Despite allegation by the Waterbury Republican that the meeting will be one of protest and denuncia tion of the "Nazi" camp, the selectinen of Southbrry reiterated today their claim that the town will take no

ELECTRICAL NAMES

In no other industry has the names of
in its nomenclature as in the electrical in
dustry. Most of the terms used in desig-
mating electrical units are derived from
the names of early physicists and inven-
tors, whose work laid the foundation for
the electrical age
The unit of electric power is the watt,
named for James Watt, the Scottish in
ventor who lived from 1876 to 1919.
The volt, unit of pressure, is named
for Count Allesandro Volta, Italian ply
sicist, who made the first electric battery
and lived from 1745 to 1927.
The ampere, unit of strength, for the
French electrician, Andre Maria Ampere,
1775-1836.
The ohm, unit of resistance, for the
German electrician George Simon Ohm,
1784-1854
50 The farad, unit of capacity. for the
English physicist. Michael Faraday, 1791-
1867.
The henry, unit of inductance, for
the American physicist, Joseph Henry,
1797-1878.
OF these terms the most familiar IS
the watt, and its multiple, the kilowatt,
which is 1000 watts, or the equivalent of
approximately one and one-third horse
power.
1t is fitting that the early investi-
gators of the mysterious forces of cleo
tricity and magnetism should be immortal
lied in the nomenclature of an art which
has contributed so much to the well-being
of mankind, and whose future possibilities
seem almost limitless.
