STATE

If you intend to see the giant dou- ble hit bill currently at Warmers State theater you'll have to hurry as performances tomorrow evening mark the final performances.
 TWO Bright Boys" with Jackie Cooper and Freddie Bartholomew headlines the program while the second big hit is "The Forgotten Woman" starring Sigrid Gurie. Don't fail to see this show; you're sure to enjoy every minute of it.
 Starting Friday the State will usher in the biggest and best mu- sical of all time, "The Star Maker" with giant cast headed by that favorite of screen and radio, Bing Crosby. Co-starred with Bing are Louise Campbell, Linda Ware, IA year-old singing sensation; Ned Sparks and over 100 of the world's s best juvenile talent.
 Among the outstanding features of the production are the 99 kids who have been judged as Holly woods most talented stars of to- morrow; Linda Ware, who is Bing's newest star; IA old favorite tunes which you'll remember from the old days; four new Bing Crosby hits which you're hearing right now, everywhere; and the Los Angeles Philharmonic Symphony orchestra of 100 musicians led by the famous Walter Damrosch.
 Local lovers of grand screen en- tertainment can surely look forward to seeing one of the biggest pro- ductions of the year with such a guarantee as this.
 The new Crosby vehicle, which might readily be termed singing cavalcade of show business, gives Bing the best role he has ever had. It casts him as tin pan alley song writer, small time hoofer who be- lieves that he can rise to the top in show business by taking talented kids from the sidewalks of New York and building them into great acts.
 As the second big hit, the manage nent will present a laugh and thrill show entitled Death of a Champion" with Lynne Overman in the lead.

TEACHERS INVITED
 TO DISCUSS PLAN
Citizens Good Govt Press ing Campaign for Sup=
 port in Referendum

The Citizens Good Government association campaign for adoption of the city manager charter pressed forward today. Plans were announce ed for a meeting of public school teachers at the Y. M. c. A. Sept 27, at which time questions con- corning the charters provisions ir1 regard to teachers will be answered
 Letters to all local teachers will be mailed out tomorrow, explaining some of the charter provisions and asking for support of the city mana ger plan at the referendum Oct. 3
 Edward H. Davis, statistician for the Scovill Mfg. Co.,, told the Rotary club yesterday that adoption of the new charter would be of great bene- fit to the city. The plan, he said would give the citizens a real op- portunity for self-government. He asserted that attacks on the plan were weak.
 Mrs. Robert w. Lowell, Republi- can member of the Board of Edu- cation, issued a statement announc- ing support of the city manager charter and the P. R. method of voting, saying they would bring good honest government"
 The present election system in Waterbury is too cumbersome, de- clared Aurelio Greco in a talk last night over Station WATR. He as- serted, that the city manager char ter would allow the voters to know their representatives well and tc keep a closer eye on the manage ment of city affairs.

STRAND

One of the greatest adventures known to man will be thrillingly reconstructed on the screen of War ner Bros. Strand theater this after noon during the presentation of Stanley and Livingstone" with twice Academy award winning Spencer Tracy turning in another masterful performance, co-starred with Nancy Kelly and Richard Greene at the head of one of the greatest acting casts ever assembled.
 So the story goes of one white man venturing into the perilous wilderness of unknown Africa to seek another, an impossible Hercu- lean labor marked by innumerable, nameless terrors. Such is the theme of this film that assumes a top po- sition among the years most notable screen achievements.
 But there's more than thrilling adventure to be seen in the film The great reporter found Livingstone unwilling to be rescued, and learned from the missionary explorer a new heroic meaning in life that sent him

M The Local Theaters
POLl'S

The gayest event of the year, "Up- roar Hour," takes place on our stage this eevening. Be sure to be on hand to join in the fun. The hil- arious funfest awards cash prizes to all who participate.
 Furnishing the musical back ground is Gus Meyers, Jr., dynamic fiddler, with the popular Loew Poli theater orchestra.
 The Loew Poli theater movie hit parade continues with the double smash bill, which opened yesterday to the applause of capacity audi ence.
 Heading the screen program is a story of untamed love in the jungle Panama Lady,. Featuring Lucille Ball as poverty-stricken girl forced to earn her living as a cabaret dancer in the dangerous Panama, the picture tells with force and realism arm-touching love story, In the male romantic lead is hand some Allan Lane.
 The second hit completing the program is "A Woman is the Judge with Frieda Inescort in the title role. She is faced with the dire tragedy of condemning to death in the electric chair, her only daugh- ter, capably portrayed by lovely Ro- chelle Hudson. The supporting cast consists of Otto Kruger, Gordon Oliver, .Beryl Mercer and Mayo Methot.
 Coming to Loew's Poli Friday is a new romantic team, Myrna Loy and Tyrone Power in "The Rain Comes" in which Louis Bromfields great novel is brought to vivid and start ling life on the screen. Rarely has famous book, which has been read and enjoyed by mill lions, been transferred to the screen with such fidelity, such unsparing care and cost! The result gloriously justifies the effort. Here is great film!
 All the fascinating characters of the book come to vivid life on the screen and every role is perfectly cast and brilliantly played, the evil dent result of the distinguished Clarence Browns superlative di- rection.
 Myrna Loy, looking more enchant- ing than ever, breaks with the "Per- feet Wife" tradition to play the amorous Lady Esketh and she is superb. Tyrone Power is grand as the handsome, high-caste Hindu surgeon, Major Rama Safti, the first real love of Lady Esketh's romance strewn life; and George Brent gives a splendid account of himself as the world-weary Tom Ransome.
 The colorful setting of Bromfield's mythical city of Ranchipur, India is realistically reproduced and the awesome catastrophes that highlight the novel-the earthquake, the flood the fire and the plague-are all re- produced with breathtaking effect. Indeed there has never been any, thing in film history to match the spectacle scenes in "The Rains Came"
 Taking the leading roles are Myrna Loy, Tyrone Power anc George Brent with a successful SUD- lporting cast headed by Brenda Joyce
 Nigel Bruce, Maria Ouspenskaya
 Joseph Schildkraut, Marjorie Ram.

Congress to Write Next Chapter In FDRs Neutrality History

sion that the American frontier wa now the Rhine. He clarified Amer. can foreign policy as being no morI than:
 1. No entangling alliances.
 2. Broader world trade for all.
 3. Sympathy with all effort to reduce 1rmaments.
 4. Peaceful maintenance of p0- litical, economic and social inde- pendence for all countries.
 Action in the present European war crisis has been confined largely to a general appeal to the opposed parties on humane grounds and to an exact and literal applica. tion of existing neutrality laws de- pying arms alike to all belligerents but permitting shipment of othel articles, many of which have al ready been declared contraband.
 Whether Congress confirms the Presidents belief in the advis- ability of repeating the present neutrality law, or whether Con- gress will fight against repeal as it did before the regular session adjourned in August, or whether it will adopt still another policy remains to be seen.

It can engulf states and peoples remote from the original scene of hostilities. We are deter mined to keep out of war, yet we cannot insure ourselves against the disastrous effects of war and the dangers of involvement America hates war. America hopes for peace. Therefore, America ac- lively engages in the search for peace."
 Thus far a years sensation events had carried American policy from the Chautauqua speech.
 Throughout 1888, events piled on one another in Europe. Ger many seized Austria and the Sudentenland.
 The President set American re- armament in motion. The fleet was sent to the Pacific. He made his plea to Hitler and to President Benes of the Czechs for peaceful settlement.
 Munich, and the conquest of Chechoslovakia, the seizure of Me mel, and the Italian conquest of Albania followed.
 Exactly how much encourage ment was lent by the United States to the effort to form a united front against further Ger man aggression during 1888 is not clear, but the impression is definite that the United States did sup port it.
