CHRISTIAN CHURCH
REVIVAL CONTINUES
Rev. MIR. Neese breaches
Wednesday Night to En-
thusiastic Congregation

AT the revival services in :,rc pre-
at the First Congregational-Ch
church. Rev. ]. L. Neese, the visitino,
minister, asked the people last even.
ing, What Think Ye of Christp' In
the course of his message he selected
several passages of scripture which
gave an insight into what the peonle
OF HIS day thought of Him. MIR. Neese
tnen said, "Now that is what the peo-
pie OF His day thought of Him. The
question before us tonight is: "What
DO we think of Him'?" After the nre-
sentation of this thought, he closed
MS message by asking those present
What will you do with Him." He
asserted that there were only two al
ternatives: He must be rejected or He
must be accepted and crowned as
Lord of their life. The congregation
showed splendid interest in the ser
mon.
Mr.. Neese's subject tonight will he
those who cannot be saved" His
closing message will be "Why sit we
here until we die?"

The Waterbury Democrat., 1938-07-08
Tops the List

At a recent meeting of the Board of Works members designated the construc- tion of the trunk line sewer along the bed of the Mad River as of more importance as WPA project than various paving jobs around the town. Everybody should agree with this conclusion. We presume, though, there will be those who won't think that the sewer job is of half import ance as getting some of our main arteries of travel in good shape. Upper North Main street, for example, could cause any long-suffering motorist to "crab'.
 But more general good will come from construction of the trunk sewer, one of the main steps in the elimination of water pollution in the Waterbury area, than from building new roadways The trunk line is part of huge sewer pro- gram that has been under consideration for long years. Until it is completed the last and most important phase of this work cannot be attempted That is the construction of an elimination plant in the south end of the town
 Waterbury is probably the last of the Naugatuck Valley towns to reach this stage in it's campaign against stream pollution. Only when lateral sewers are linked to trunk line and this in turn to the elimination plant can the job be called finished. Other towns are still waiting on Waterbury, Naugatuck, in particular, having postponed construc- tion of sewage disposal plant until this city has one and is utilizing it. We have long visioped the day when Waterbury will have joined the constantly-expanding list of American cities which have aban doned ancient sewerage systems for the modern ones guaranteeing future public safety from polluted waters.

Six of One, Etc.

The Hartford Central Labor Unions Nonpartisan Committee, representing some 40 American Federation of Labor locals, has endorsed Representative Her man P. Kopplemann for U. s. Senator. It scores the efforts of A. F. of L. national leader to endorse Senator Augustine Lon- ergan for renomination. At the same time it throws it's support to Governor Wilbur L. Cross and for his running-mate, Labor Commissioner Joseph M. Tone. Thus sticking it's neck out in this fashion the Hartford organization can expect plenty of praise and criticism.
 Certainly switching allegiance to Kop- plemann from Lonergan, if it's allegiance ever was with the latter, won't actually switch as many votes as might be ex- pected. If labor, as represented by the aforementioned league, disapproves of Senator Lonergan's congressional record, 1t will have to do lot of hard work to persuade Connecticut voters that Repre- sentative Kopplemanns is to be preferred. What explanation, for example, will the KOpplemann sponsors offer for his en- dorsement of the Spanish Loyalist cause earlier this year?
 For every labor vote that Lonergan might lose as the democratic candidate for U S. Senator, and we don't think he would lose too many, he'd hold the con- siderable Catholic votes that are certain ly estranged by Representative Kopple- mann's action, for which he still is held accountable in certain circles in Con- necticut. We offer this merely as one instance where such trading in mid stream, as the Hartford Central Labor Unions Nonpartisan Committee, repre- senting 40 local American Federation of Labor Unions proposes, would gain abso- lutely nothing

American League

American republics are deSerting the League of Nations more rapidly than ever. One of them quit in May, another in June, and third leaves next month, while two more have lately given notice. Only 12 out of 20 remain in the"Geneva organ ization. By another year probably majority will have gone.
 Naturally there is increasing talk of an American league. This is natural reac- tion to the failure of the present league in stopping the wars of Europe and Asia, and also response to the Good Neighbor policy of the United States. It is clear that there is more unity among the re- publics of this hemisphere today than there has ever been in the past. Foreign dangers tend to throw us all, large and small alike, upon our own resources and into closer bonds with each other.
 It seems to many Americans, however, as if the Pan- American Union, with little tightening up and expansion of power, should be able to serve this purpose, in- stead of creating a new league. The Latin-American nations are already mem- bers, and more use might be made of the existing machinery.
 Many Americans, too, would be sorry to see the Geneva League abandoned, in spite of it's shortcomings, because there is need of some kind of world organization to handle universal problems For years we have cooperated with many of it's activities, and we shall probably continue doing so, while preserving our own free dom of action.

AGE OF BRIDGES
(NeW Britain Herald)

N1NCW ASAAtuAAA AANA oAaI
 The State. Highway department has announced it is considering the construction of a bridge to cost $1 5000 over the Housatonic river, over two roads adjoining the river and over railroad. The new span is to be at Derby. and will be a connecting link between the Merritt Parkway (when fully completed and the Wilbur J. Cross Parkway, which will extend through central Connecticut to the Massachusetts line near Union.
 The Great MiddletoWn- Portland bridge cost only little more than twice the estimated cost of this contemplated structure at Derby. The latter would be the second most elaborate bridge in the state.
 The state has constructed more bridges the past few years than in all it's history. The completed IT, mile stretch of Merritt Parkway &C., counted for 54 bridges (under and over-passes), some costing two and three-thousand dollars each. Con- tracts have been considered for IA additional bridges along the uncom- pleted parkway stretch-and these will be wider and more expensive than the previous parkway bridges.
 Yet in the state there are scores of narrow, old-slyle horse and buggy" bridges along important highways. It will be well, we think, for the State Highway department not to overlook the need for elim- mating these at the earliest oppor- tunity.

THE CUTTY SARK
Christian Science Monitor)

Christian Science Monitor)
 The famous old clipper, Cutty Sark, recently added one more to her long list of voyages. She sailed from Falmouth to the Thames, where, anchored off Greenhithe, she is to be used as sister training ship to H. M. s. Worcester by the Thames Nautical Training College.
 It is pleasant to think that, like Odysseus, she has found after her Wanderings an affection unshaken by time and other suitors, which would not allow her to pass for lornly into the oblivion of the ship breakers yard. Pleasant to think that when for the last time the order Let go!" was given aboard her, and following the splash of the anchor, she Hay asleep upon her iron" it was only to awake to new and equally honorable, &C., tiVlty. She is becalmed, but not fret ful and impotent as in the dol- drums; and if, on the other hand, she misses the glorious days when she fled before the trades, or was bounded in vain by the grey boards" of the Atlantic, at least she has a crew whose youthful imagin- ation will delight to accompany her memories of heroic ventures.
 : The sailors profession is steeped in great traditions, and one cannot imagine setting more likely to fos- ter feeling for them than the Cutty Sark.

Superdreadnaughts Postponed

Many people, including naval experts, are relieved by the decision to postpone indefinitely the building of 45,OO0-ton battleships. It would be fine to have a couple of superdreadnoughts capable, in theory at least, of blowing any exist ing WarShip out of the water from safe distance. But most of the experts seem agreed that, for the present at least, there are too many objections.
 The two behemothS contemplated would cost at least $10OOOO,OOO apiece, and for $20O,000,000 a fleet of pocket battle ships" can be built that might be, on the whole, more effective. It takes much less time to build smaller fighting ships, and the experts know how to build them without experimenting, whereas, they would be taking some big chances on the giants With smaller craft they avoid the technical risk of putting so many eggs into one basket The big fellows might get into trouble going through the Pan anna Canal and might run aground in narbors safe enough for ordinary battle snlpS. So we shall worry along for a while with a top weight of 35 ,O0O tons.
 Nobody Is saying much about it. but

The new international bridge across the St. Lawrence River at the Thousand Islands is in reality more than one bridge; it's a series of structures using many of the picturesque little islands that dot the river at this point as stepping stones. There must be at least half a dozen or more actual spans and the odd part of it is that many of the connect ing spans are of different engineering types. The longest span is 800-feet, cross ing the channel on the American side of the river to Wells Island. The shortest span cannes next, a 90-foot jump from Wells Island to Hill Island. The inter- national boundary line is on this part of the bridge and is appropriately marked with brass strip across the roadway. The bridge will be opened to the public in August, both Canada and the United States participating in the ceremonies. Tolls will be charged until the cost of the bridge has been realized To our way of thinking that's the easiest and best way or building all huge bridges and high ways today

One more presidential birthplace is about to be preserved for all time as an American museum. The Manse, Staun- ton, Virginia, where Woodrow Wilson was porn was recently ordered purchased by the Woodrow Wilson Birthplace Founda- ton, Inc, group of public-spirited citi- zens interested in work of this nature The Manse is owned by the Mary Bald win College. Wilson never lived long at The Manse, his parents moving from it shortly after his birth.

J. Francis Smith of Waterbury chairman of the Democratic state central committee has come out strongly in favor of the adoption of the direct primary in Connecticut He thinks that the direct primary system is more suited to a Demo- cratic form of government" and points to the fact that the conven- tion system is cumbersome and too often is boss controlled.
 The Democratic convention in Connecticut is fairly representative of the Democratic voters of the state but the Republican convention which is based on the same system o1 representation as the legislature it. self is thoroughly rotten borough and unrepresentative. It has been the infallible mechanism for boss control in the Republican party of Connecticut and that is why the COP. in this state is pretty much of wreck today. It long ceased to be responsive to public opinion or the temper of the times.
 For many years the Republican convention system which places the small towns of the state in con- plete control of the nomination of governor, senator and other state of fees, regardless of the much larger population in the cities, was de- tended on the ground that the ma jority of Republican votes were lodg- ed in these towns. But even that has ceased to be true. In a state where the small towns have been going Democratic almost as enthusiast ically as the big cities, the reason for continuing this archaic control of the Republican party has ceased to have even the semblance of sense in it.
 No Republican convention made up as Republican conventions in the past have been made up can be truly representative of the people of Connecticut. It may by some mira cle cast of its own shackles and nominate a man who appeals to the state, on a platform which is in keeping with modern intelligence. But though J. Henry Roraback is dead his spirit is still strong in the party and as long as his spirit dominates it will never get any, where.
 If we are to have direct primaries in Connecticut we should have di-

New Haven is great on digging artesian wells. At the close of the current school year plans were made for drilling three wells which would supply water at three of the city's public schools This would result in a saving to the city of about S1 1900 year in water bills. New Haven has no municipal water supply, a private water company providing service, both domestic and public. It's surprising the number of artesian wells that are drilled today and of which the average man knows little or nothing. Most public buildings which have air-cooling systems nave their own wells, usually in the base ment. There are several here in town, we are informed

A Book a Day
"Sit-DoW With John l.. Lewis"

The best-written short, simple account of John L. Lewis and his work to appear thus far in book form is now available in "Sit Down With John L. Lewis (Random House: $15O.
 Not an exhaustive treatise on the details of long labor career, this brief book is concise, clear account of the man and his pres- ent work, with enough of the background to explain the pres ent
 c. L. Sulzberger. the writer, as a reporter for the United Press has watched Lewis in action for two years. The freshness of his book reflects this on-the-scene contact; the anecdotes have the ring of the circumstantial. Many of them, like the knock down and drag-out fight with Hutchinson and the exact manner of the sign ing of U. s. Steel give a distinct impression that here, at last, is the real Mccoy on the incidents dis cussed. ............
 For Interpretation of the man and his aims, Sulzberger is gen. orally content to let Lewis speak for himself in generous quotation, which is probably as accurate a way as any. Anecdotes hitherto untold, and the fresh, veracious details noted by man who was on the spot when the things dis cussed happened, are the virtues Of this sprightly job. rather than ponderous scholarship and re- search.
 1t is distinctly readable, and a splendid working guide to the man who towers over labor's present asd casts long shadow oyer the future of politics. F.
