 FILM BACKGROUND
Child Welfare Association Offers Premiere of Pic.
 ture Friday

Making a movie to please both children and adults, and incorpor- ating into 1t Q message, without making the picture weariSorie to those who come for entertainment purposes only, requires e good deal of Ingenuity.
 This the Connecticut Child Well fare Association when 1t produced the full-length talking picture. '"They Wanted A Girl" which will have its premiere ct Bushnell Mei11- orial in Hartford, October 8. It will be shown in Waterbury at . 'later date.
 Previously, such pictures have been confined to short reels which were strictly for propaganda pur- poses. "They Wanted A Girl" how Ever. is designed to be just as erl- tertaining as any Hollywood film. What it lacks in production gran. deur, due to the limited facilities at hand, 1t gains in local interest. For, instead of spending money to cre- ate settings for the various parts of the story, the actors and camera men actually went to the places where the action is supposed to have taken place.
 Connecticut orphanages, jails, and even the Governors ofice in the State Capitol are included in the backgrounds against which the story is told.

Field Mass Read By
 Late Priests Grave
impressive Ceremony Enacted Near Resting Place of Late Rev. Joseph Fleming, Former Waterburian

signor Joseph A. Breslin, DID,, Ta- ther Tleming's successor ct St. Johns in White Plains. The sermon was preached by Rev. pr. James V. Hart assistant at St. Johns. Fol- lowing this Monsignor Breslin bless cd the Celtic cross. Assisting at the mass were Rev. John D. McGowan and Rev. Philip j.. Nolan, of St. Johns. Among the many clergy present was Right Rev. Monsignoi Michael J. Lavelle of St. Patrick's cathedral, New York City.
 Dr. Hart, who delivered the ser- mon, said in part:
 He loved you good people in life and had even c deeper concern for your beloved dead. This was his fayorite long walk = from the priests. house to the cemetery. He would stand for, c minute with barred head outside the gates and breathe Q prayer for oil whose mor- tai remains lie in these hallowed hills. May God be good to them and may He have mercy on all the living he used to say. He seemed really to have holy envy of the dead. And as one by one his dear est friends in the priesthood died he sorrowed for them like c child would for c dear father or mother and yet envied them the journeys end. Gone to glory he would say. Death was Q victory over life's struggles and tears.
 He loved beautiful things in aa- ture and in grace. He saw them ell wed with the breath of God. He saw his church in her sacramental search for souls, embrace all inani- mate creation itl the flowers that blossoried to make the sanctuary of the world more beautiful or to nestle against the tabernacle of the Lord of the world; the wax of the bees that relayed the lightning flame Of Calvary around 6 million Cathode altarS, Q field of wheat at harvest time, the purpling grapes that would be crushed that they may not decay. An. these would be sacrifiCial bread and wine some day Gold and precious stones for these could be shaped and set to hold the Body of the Lord; the flax grew with the special blessing of God upon 1t because It's soft folds once held the dead Christ in Ills Mothers arms. Pure linen would ai- ways make the Kings bed on the altars of the world. To him, indeed, God was Beauty,s High Priest bid- ding nature speak with c thousand Pentecostal tongues of the mystery of Holy Mass.

Washington, Oct. 5-The question whether a popular referendum shall be required to take this country into war will almost certainly be a major issue on the floors of Con- gress within the next few months.
 Last May, as reported in these dispatches, Congressman Louis Ludlow of Indiana had gathered 100 signatures for . petition to discharge from the House Judi ciary committee his resolution for a constitutional amendment which would require that the people vote on any proposed declaration of war.
 Today he has 1S5 such signatures. This means that the proposed amendment, assuming Ludlow is correct in his assurance that he has enough additional signatures in sight to make up the necessary 2lS, will come before the House by February or March.
 Subsequent processes of adding 1t to the Constitution would include passage by two-thirds vote in Sem ate and House and ratification by three-fourths of the states. House passage would require 290 votes if all members were on hand.
 Heavy drive will be placed be- hind the proposal A national committee of veteran, church, farmer, labor, war mother and other leaders is being formed to lend weight. Proponents think they can mow down opposition by insisting that America mustn't be asked to "save the world for dem Ocracy" again without some denn-- Ocratic process for deciding whether the American section of democracy is interested.
 Ludlow's amendment wouldn't ap- ply in case the United States or its territory were invaded and any of Its citizens killed. But otherwise, in case of threatened trouble, no war could be declared unless 8 majority of citizens voted aye on the ques- tion: Shall the United States de- clare war on-?"
 WPA Lists Increasing
 WPA rolls have hit bottom for the current year and are now expected to increase from month to month.
 Number of persons employed Shrank from this years peak of 2,145,OOO in February to 1,455,OOO in September. There were still 100000 WPA workers at the
 end of May and most of those dropped after that date were taken
 olf because Congress limited WPA
 appropriations to $1,5OO. .OOO,OOO.
 The extent to which persons will be added to the rolls as cold wealth. CT goes on is uncertain and depends, according to unof1cial advices, largely on the extent to which busi- ness continues to recover and ex- pand private employment.
 Congress provided that the ap- propriation be divided in twelve parts but gave no directions as to how much money should be spent in any given month. The drastic summer slash in the rolls was meant to assure enough funds for winter and spring, assuming business con- tinued to improve. WPA may or may not be back at Capitol Hill for more before the fiscal year is out. | (Copyright, 1887, NEA Service, Incl
