Woman Leader
Believes Heiresses
Should Go to WOrT

BOSTON, Dec. 2. CUP) = Mrs.
Catherine Filene Shouse believes
heiresses should go to work.
They should sit in as members
of boards OF directors to direct the
destinies of enterprises from which
they derive their income instead
of merely collecting dividends, she
told the Women's City club last
night.
Mrs. Shouse. wife of former DEM
ocratic National Chairman Jouett
Shouse, said women "get more than
we deserve because men are still
chivalrous and oftentimes maximize
our Importance when we show
Slight capabilities.
Women who complaint that this
is a mans world do not have my
sympathy. don't picture women
as fighting against closed, i'm
possible door. I picture them as
attaining what they set out to gain
and I criticize not the men for
keeping them out but the women
themselves for whatever barriers
exist"

Episcopal Church Trying 10 Liberalize Diuorce Canon

New York, July e.--(UP) .--The general convention of the Protestant Episcopal church will be asked to undertake greater liberalization of the divorce canon" 1t was an. nounced today.
 Under . proposal by the commis- sion on marr' ge and divorce of the church "any person whose former marriage has been dissolved for any cause by 6 civil court may after the expiration of one year from the granting of the divorce apply to the bishop of his or her diocese for permission to marry another person."
 The church will act on the pro. posal at its. convention at Cin- cinnati in october. It was the sec- ond move in seven years by the commission to liberalize canon q which permits re-marriages of the innocent party" iii 6 divorce after one year. where adultery was the ground for action. Re-Inarriages are permitted in annulmeAts for in. sanity, mental deficiency, biganiy, lack of free consent, {. mistaken identity. under age, iinpotence, venefeai disease and CCllsafiguinity.
 The commissions proposal, says that nothing in this canon shali deprive tiie bishop of his ecelesiae- teal power to permit ss n re.inRf-

riage if, in equity and good con- science, he shall choose so to do" However, before such permission Is granted by the bishop, he shall take legal, and, if necessary, other ad. vices, including that of the clergy. man of the parish of which the ap- plicant is Q member. He shall also Inquire into the character and per. sonality of the parties to the pre- vious and proposed marriage, and must determine whether the spirit- ual welfare of the parties thereto, and of society, will be served by the proposed marriage" ..-.
 Church heads denounced the proposal. The church publication prepared an editorial Aaying that it would negative the teaching of Christ" The editorial adds that the amendment would bring utter chaos" into the entire re-fnarriage and divorce problem.
 In some quarters it was said that the proposal would result in op- posing rulings by Liberal" and d"con- servative" bishops. &.EB l

PRESENT CITY REGIME SEEKS ENDORSEMENT .s
 s& Mayor Frank Hayes, With All His Political Family
 in Line TRIUMPHANT TICKET CAMPAIGNS AGAIN Mayor is Aroused Over D0ubt-Tax Collector Ennis May Not Run

Mayor Frank Hayes and the entire democratic ticket of elective officers will seek renomination and reelection in the approaching munich pal elections, notwithstand- ing rumors that "pressure" was being exerted to compel the retirement of prominent officials.
 Both Mayor Hayes and Chairman John H. Crary of the democratic town committee were most confident today in state ments that the ticket, which has been triumphant in previous cana paigns would remain intact and would 60 before the electorate for another endorsement of two years. If any of the present adfninistra- tion officials contemplate retiring they have yet to take either the mayor or Chairman Crary into their confidence. The hint of pressure was dismissed as being without any foundation and as ridiculous.
 Stay in Picture
 T have not heard of anyone be- tng asked to step out of the pie tire," remarked Chairman Crary today. "And as far as 1 know the various officials will be candidates to succeed themselves when election day rolls around. I have heard all kinds of rumors. but have paid lit- tie or no attention to them. Unless I hear. directly from the persons in- voived 1 am taking 1t for granted that they are desirous of running again. It is up to them to decide on their future ambitions. Of course in any election year, one hears all kinds, of stories as to changes, but the reports are usually SO absurd as to require no comments
 You can emphasize for me that the democratic ticket next October will include the present incumbents of elective offices and they will be reelected"

European Statesmen Asked To Form Nelu Political Deal

Washington, July 8-(UP)-Un. dersecretary of state Sumner Welies called upon European statesmen to- day for e New Deal politically and economically in the old world to avert the Impending desolation of war.
 In one of the most fortnight American diplomatic statements since the signing Of the Versailles treaty Weiles laid most of the blame for present conditions in Europe upon the vengefil provisions of that treaty, and called for c change in both policies and practice in order that the present generation in Eu. rope and the rest of the world may live fin peace.
 Weiles laid down c four-point program which he said the nations of the world must agree upon if they desire to live ct peace with each other. These points are:
 1. RevitaiizatiOn of international morals: restoration of the sanctlty of the pledged word given between nations: Reaffirmation Of the priii- ciples Of interneticnal law, now
The Waterbury Democrat., 1937-07-08

regarded more in the breach than in the observance"
 2. Abolition or reduction of arti. ficial trade barriers.
 3. Limitation and eventual reduc- ton of armaments.
 {. Frequent conferences between representatives of governments, free intercourse between their peo- ples and free exchange of views and Ideas.
 He condemned, by inference, Ger many, Italy, Soviet Russia and France for intervention in the Spanish Civil War. He praised the efforts of the British government to make effective the international non -intervention pact. The desire of some nations to take c hand in epain's civil war, Welleg declared, constitutes today the greatest dang CT to the peace Of the world. Welles' views were presented last night before the institute of public affairs, University Og VirRinia. They constituted a pesgimigtic outlook cIi the present aspects of world peoCes

 Tientsin, China, July s.-CUP)- Chinese and Japanese troops fought savagely in the suburbs of the ancient capital of Peiping today in what threatened to be the most serious incident in recent years. Casualties were heavy. Japanese used machine gun and artillery fire against retreating Chinese soldiers. There were unconfirmed reports that the Japanese threw 200 shells into the walled city of Wanpingshin just south of Peiping and Killed scores of soldiers and civilians. Jap- anese authorities at Peiping admit ted 10 casualties among their own men and reported they had found the bodies of i7 Chinese soldiers.
 Battle sun Goes On
 The fight that still continued at midday, broke out first at 1l:30 D. m. when according to the Japanese version, Chinese soldiers fired on Japanese troops, holding night ma neuvers in the suburban area. It seemed obvious that the situation was one of the greatest gravity.
