 High Sheriff Slavin issued a statement defending his officer, and in it pointed out that Burton has applied for supermunerary berth in the East Haven police depart ment. Slavin, stated that the protec- ton of all deputy sheriffs in the per- formance of their duties was up- permost in his mind.

beyond their reach. It was clear that in addition to the Gospel, they needed material assistance and patient guidance from people who could understand their trou- bles.
 It was in response to such need that the Salvation Army entered the realm of social service, and it is. because of this decision, that Waterbury is now observing the Salvation Army Maintenance Ap- peal. This work must go on; it must be dores and the Salvation Army is here. to. do the job. The local unit, under the leadership of Adjutant and Mrs. Hugo Wi berg, stands ready to continue its much needed and excellent ser- vices. During the 12 months end- ing March 31, 1o37, the local Sal- vation Army brought temporary relief to some thirteen hundred homeless men, providing them with lodgings, and supplying them with food. Three hundred and forty-four Waterbury families were aided with food, clothing and other necessities; while the combined Christmas and Thanks giving dinners totaled two thou sand five hundred and fitty-seven. Again I say, this. work must go on, must be continued!
 The radio address of Treasurer Thomas F. Moore was as fol- lows:
 No organization or enterprise has ever been granted broader charter than that embodied in the certificate of incorporation, issued by the state of New York in 1899, from which the Salvation Army derives its legal existence in the United States.
 This charter defines the Salva- tion Army as "an organization de- signed to. operate as a religious and charitable corporation in all the states and territories of the United States. and enumerates the following as it's purposes:
 "1. The spiritual, moral and physical reformation of all who need 1t; 2. The reclamation of the vicious, criminal, dissolute and de- graded; 3. Visitation among the poor and lowly and sick; 4. The

preaching of the Gospel and the dissemination of religious truths by means of open air and indoor 
 The act of incorporation further authorizes the establishment of 8 wide variety of homes, bureaus and institutions within the scope of these general purposes, and the maintenance of such business ac- tivities and relationships as are essential so long as the proceeds, if any, are devoted exclusively to religious and humanitarian pur- suits.
 For the past nine years, I have filled the position of treasurer on the local Salvation Army advisory board, and have come before the public repeatedly, to endorse the appeal of this organization, and to urge the citizens of Waterbury to morally and financially support the Salvation Army. The 1887 maintenance appeal calls for the raising of $8,000.0O. To one whose daily occupation involves the handling of large sums of moneys and who becomes accustomed by reason of such transactions to handle them with a standardized routine, the sum of $3,00o.o0 as an annual budget to carry on the work of such an organization may seem a meager amount and a rela- lively trivial transaction. But when that same person, following the practice of a good accountant, looks on the other side of the ledger and endeavors to measure the effort, the charity and the ac- complishments which this com- paratively small sum produces, he
 can only say truthfully that he has weighed the work of the local Salvation Army in the balance, and found it not wanting.
 Founded originally for. the reli- gious enlightenment of the un- churched, the Army's primary and persistent aim still is to proclaim and exemplify, through song, word and deed, the regenerating and revitalizing message of the Scrip lures. The social service work is supplementary. As far-reaching as is its program of temporal relief, including hospitals, nurs cries, homes, charity bureaus, and host of other activities and institu- tions, it should be recognized as a manifestation, an expression, or a practical application of the dom- mating spiritual motive.
 [ Knowledge of this relationship between it's two functions is es- sential to a proper and complete understanding of the Salvation Army. It does not mean that the giving of relief in specific cases is contingent upon the acceptance of a certain creed or theology, or that material assistance is with held from those who hesitate or decline to accept spiritual advice or guidance. Relief is freely given . whenever and wherever the need is apparent. Such is the work of the Salvation Army and that is why the maintenance appeal is freely and full endorsed. S3,000.00 is urgently needed. Please send in your donation now!

Boston, May 20-(UP)-An attrac- tive blonde who gave several dit- ferent names after being found at Back Bay hotel told police today that her real name was Mary ". Davenport, 18, of West Troy, N. Y.

 The girl was taken from her house of detention cell to police headquar- ters for further questioning this morning.
 Police warned her that unless she gave her right name they would jail her and hold her as a stubborn child until she identified herself. It was then that she gave the name of Mary Davenport.

 Idris Alderson, prominent mem per of the advisory committee in a radio address last evening spoke IS follows:
 "As a member. of the Waterbury Salvation Army Advisory Board | would like to talk to you for a few minutes concerning the work of the Salvation Army.
 The charitable and. humani- tartan work. of this splendid or |ganization was started with a very definite purpose, but with out a specific program. It has developed in many different d1- rections in response to human needs, as fast as they have been discovered, and has not been re- stricted or limited by any pre- conceived or arbitrary plan. This in itself, explains it's extraordin- ary variety and scope. Social service had no part in the plan as at first conceived by the. founder of the Salvation Army, the late General William Booth. The Salyationists were to take ;he Gospel to those who would not seek it in the churches. They were to invade the highways and 1yways and preach Salvation; through Godly grace, to the spir- tually blind and the poor ln heart. That was to be their only mission. But it was not easy to ak spiritual salvation to people who were dazed and bewildered by acute physical need. That such people responded to this preaching with manifest eagerness made the task all the more per- pleXing.
 The unemployed, enervated through privation and suffering; he wayward girl facing mother hood out of wedlock; aged men Ind women without homes in which to spend their declining
 ears; the young man, realizing l!e futility of indulgence, but bylEzled as to which way to turn:
 he criminal, breeding in his cell; he widowed mother, valiantly aging a losing battle against pov-
 ty and sickness; the wayward, he degenerate, the irresponsible, he weak of will-all of these saw he light of hope in the message f the Salvation Army, but that hope seemed far off, intangile,
