an extended program for the
Washington Institute of Mental
Hygiene yesterday by Miss Kath-

Society has to pay the bill,

the Community Chest Forum of
Government workers at a luncheon
in ChildS' Restaurant.
Right now, we are paying for
it in crime and in increasing mum

children. If we are wise, both
from a financial and from a hui
man viewpoint, we will see that
both public and private proven,

CLU GUILD BAN
HIT BY GREEN

Action of the Washington Cen
trail Labor Union in preventing
members of the American News
paper Guild a CLIO affiliate from
reporting its meetings today had
drawn criticism from the AFL.
Said William Green, president of
the AFL:
THE exclusion Of newspaper
men because of their affiliation
or non-affiliation with any
union is to be deplored. This in
wolves freedom of the press, and
this must be maintained at any
COST"
Robert M. Buck, president of the
Washington Newspaper Guild,
which in 1897 left the ranks of
the AFL to affiliate with the CLIO,
said:
Il am disappointed that any
labor group can permit an un-
fortunate but apparently I'M
avoidable factionaliSm to render
it intolerant."
Charles B. McCloskey, vic e
president of the Gu executive
committee, said Guild members
were barred to prevent carrying
our ideas to the CLIO camp"

Insurance Companies
 Sponsoring Campaign
Annual Advertising, Educational Week to Be Observed
 By l37 Companies; 75O Daily Newspapers Listed

Life insurance underwriters in this city, and about 1000 other cities and towns throughout the United States are cooperating this week in trans mitting to the public the Annual Message of Life Insurance. This years program is broader in scope than that of any of the five previ- ous annual educational campaigns devoted to informing the public of the value and purposes of the insti- tutions of life insurance.
 Newspaper Advertising
 One hundred and thirty-seven life insurance companies are cooperating in the campaign, the principal fea- ture of which is newspaper adver- Using to appear during the week in 426 cities. A total of 750 daily news papers are on the advertising sched- ule.
 The National Committee for Life Insurance Education states that the success of newspaper advertising in previous educational campaigns, and the enthusiastic reception given this advertising by the public and local organizations of underwriters, influenced the committees unani- nous decision to concentrate on newspapers again this year.
 Local campaigns in each of the 426 cities in which the national committees advertising will appear have been organized under the local Association of Life Underwriters.
 One feature of life insurance being stressed by local underwriters this week is the wide ownership of this form of protection, and the manner in which life insurance in- ment of American industry and vestments contribute to the better governmental enterprises. With only ' per cent of the worlds popu- lation, 1t is pointed out, the United States has 70 per cent of the worlds life insurance. The $110,000 000, ,000 of life insurance in force in this country is shared by GA ,000, ,000 policy holders, whose average purchases total $1,700 each.

The Waterbury Democrat., 1938-05-09

John and Charles Wesley, Oliver Cromwell, George Washington, Abraham Lincoln and others of the great men of the race have paid the highest tributes to their moth- CTS and we are bound to believe it was their mothers who laid those foundations of strong character which in turn made these men great and serviceable in the cause of our common humanity.
 Monuments of Love
 I heard man say the other day, T never saw monument erected in honor of hate" I suppose there are a very few such monuments but I do not recall having seen any such. No, monuments are erected in honor of courage, fortitude, love. The men and women who are hon. ored have been lovers of country, lovers of humanity, lovers of truth, lovers of God, above their fellows. They have been obedient even unto death in the service of their brethern. It remains only to ask if mothers have not been the supreme lovers and ought we not on Mothers day to raise to theme our monu- ment of praise?
 Surely we ought to be grateful to- mothers, who they have meant to use in the past, what they mean to us now, in the present. There's not too much gratitude in this world as we have all discovered to our errors. Bishop William Lawrence once said that he feared many thou sands of his parishioners must have been lost at sea. It seems sad to think of all these poor folk carried away by maritime disasters, does it not? But the bishop went on to eX- plain that in the course of his apos- tolic journeys he had had thousands of requests for prayers for the safety of friends and parishioners at sea. Only one or two had ever requested that the bishop express gratitude for the safe return from the sea. He therefore assumed that all the rest must have been lost at sea! A rather sad commentary on human nature, is it not? Peo- pie sometimes distress themselves because there are so many unan- swered prayers. Two things ought to be said in connection with this problem of unanswered prayer. In the first place, most people call prayer unanswered if the answer does not happen to be the one that they suggested would be the prop CT and wise and useful answer for God to make. In the second place it ought to be borne in mind that most of our prayers are answered and in the ways we have desired and suggested and still we show nc undue gratitude!
