RELIGIOUS ACTIVITIES

The spiritual purpose of the Salvation Army is paramount Founded originally for the religious enlightenment of the masses, it's primary and persistent aim is still to pro- claim and exemplify, through song, word and deed, the regenerating and revitalizing mes- sage of the Scriptures. The social service work is supplementary. As far-reaching as is it's program of temporal relief, including hospitals, nurseries, homes, employment bureaus, and a host of other activities and institutions, it should be recognized as a manifestation, an expression, or a practical application of the dominating spiritual mos tive.
 Knowledge of this relationship between its two functions is essential 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 e certain creed or theology, or that material assistance Is withheld from . those who hesitate or decline to accept spirit ual advice or guidance. Relief Is freely given whenever and wherever the need Is appar- ent. It does mean that The Salvation Army aims at the permanent regeneration of the ''wh0Ie man." not merely at the qualification of his immediate and temporary physical necessities. In line with this purpose evangelstic services indoors and in the open air. are held day in and day cut by the members of the IocaI corps.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1939-05-15
CHARACTER BUILDING

The leaders of The Salvation Army have long recognized and constantly emphasize the crying need for preventative measures in at- tempting to minister to the children of the underprivileged. Having worked with the outcasts of society, it stands in position to know the intrinsic value of prevention. The character building activities of the local corps have as their objective the develop ment of Christian principles and character. Young people without other church. affilia- tions or social contacts are in increasing numbers being drawn into the various educa- tional and recreational activities of the corps, such as the Boy Scout Troop. the Junior Girl Guards. the Corps Cadet Brigade. the Young Peoples Legion, the Sunday School etc

SOCIAL WELFARE

From it's very beginning The Salvation Army has ministered to the poor and needy. Although no adequate plan existed during the earlier years, spiritual contact made the Armys work effective and different from that of other agencies.
 Families racked by misunderstanding. emo- tional tension or fear, whether the cause be physical, mental or economic, find The Salvation Army source of strength, encour- agement and guidance. The officers are trained in the art of consultation in personal problems, domestic difficulties and know just how to combine professional skill with com- passionate heIpfulncSs

worked out for solution of the Dan- zig issue.
 There appeared to be a momen- tary let down in controversy be- tween Germany and Poland and Warsaw hoped the Nazis would go slowly in their desire for return of Danzig to the Reich. :.
 Optimism In Paris
 There also was optimism in Pa ris, which received reports that Germany and Italy were encounter ing difficulty in the phrasing of terms of the. new military alliance they agreed to enter. Whether such difficulties indicated Italian fears of domination by Berlin was uncer- tain.
 Great Britain prepared a pro- gram for solving the Arab-Jewish conflict in Palestine without much hope of satisfying either side. The program, which would seek to set up a state in which both groups would participate, appeared certain to meet Arab opposition and to re- suit in Jewish non-cooperation.
 The British government is de- termined at present to go as far as possible toward avoiding any move that would arouse the open hostil- ity of the Arabs because of the stra- tegic importance of Palestine and Arab states in the near East in event of a Mediterranean war.
 For Home Consumption Berlin, May 15-(UP)-Foreign observers expressed belief today that Premier Benito Mussolini, in his speech at Turin yesterday, in- dicted that he was not prepared to fight for union of Danzig with Ger many.
 Propaganda ministry officials, however, condemned this view as "pure distortion" of Mussolini's statement that there was no Euro pean problem big enough or acute enough to justify war now.
 "In any event." ministry spokes- man added, "the speech dealt large ly with Italian problems. It was in- tended for home consumption and in no way touches the issues which confront Germany"

Wheeler said a statement would be issued to the governor late to- day, outlining the committees re- ductions, and the final budget draft would be ready Tuesday. Two times were included in the budget today which previously had been discarded.
 One restored $16,000 year to the commissioner of domestic animals to conduct a case-finding investiga- tion relative to tuberculosis in cat- tie herds.
 The other provided $20,000 year to the state tuberculosis commission for case-finding program to locate tuberculosis in infancy.
 A severe retrenchment has been asked by Governor Baldwin in an endeavor to get the state back on a 'pay-as-you-go" basis, which was in operation before the depression.
 New, Increased Taxes
 New or increased taxes were re- garded as inevitable. Tentative bud- getary estimates placed the state finances out of balance by about 8, ,000.O00 for the next two years. but special sessions of the appropria- tions committee, expected to con- clude tomorrow, may slash this sum considerably.

 Dominion officials in Ottawa were particularly eager to head off any political disputes arising from their handling of the arrangements be- cause of rumblings of discontent among society people in the various Canadian cities which their majeS- ties will visit. The criticism has been voiced openly only in the one Eng fish language newspaper of Quebec but it seemed to be widespread.

 Society Edged Out
 It is claimed that at almost all the functions planned in honor of their majesties, society has been "edged out of the drawing rooms and ban quet halls to make room for poli- tician or his wife" It was resented that the entire privy council of 91 members, together with their wives will be here Wednesday to be re- ceived by the king and queen, al- though these same people will have their opportunity to see and be seen at the functions in Ottawa and Montreal.

 man Petrillo, an olive oil salesman and cousin to Paul Petrillo, held as one of the leaders of the murder syndicate.
 Arsonists and bombers were fitted into the pattern by detectives who 1 in the past two weeks have worked day and night in revealing the ex- tent of the murder syndicate's oper- ations.
 Ring Medicine Man
 Several years ago the home of Dr. Horace Perlman was bombed under mysterious circumstances. Perlman is accused of being the medicine man for the ring, the physician al- legged to have prepared the doses of death-arsenic, hemlock and other lethal Substances-which removed scores of unwanted husbands and threw few hundred dollars to each of their avaricious widows.
 Police have tabulated the names of 52 known victims of the syndicate and predict that the death roster will reach 200 before the trials first of which begins here next Monday-are concluded.
 Meanwhile, with increasing evil dence on hand to indicate that the gang may have had extensive oper- ationS in the New York area, Cor oner Charles w. Hersch ordered the bodies of six more suspected vic- tins exhumed. He said the exhu- nations, formally requested by Dis trict Attorney Charles F. Kelley, would begin tomorrow. The bodies to be disinterred are those of Mrs. Lena Winkelman, Abraham Sher- man, Louis Laveechio, Mrs. Jennie Pino, David Smigel, and Anthony Giacobbe. The widows of the four men are under arrest. One of them, Mrs. Millie Giacobbe, has twice at- tempted suicide in her cell.
 The Teno case introduced new angle into the mass murder case. Mrs. Peno was one of the few wo- men victims. Her husband, believed to have been victim of the high pressure talk of the murder whole salers and subsequently, client, was being trailed by police when he died last Monday in a hospital under circumstances which led po- lice to link 1t with the poison-dis- pensing department of the syndi- cate.
 The tools of death used by the mob ranged from arsenic through black magic to the more crass tech- nique of hit-and-run driving. Most of the women Q large part of whom are of Italian stock = were. easily persuaded to take out insur- ance policies they could not afford on their husbands with the reward of sharing the spoiis.

 German Italian Pact Delayed Paris, May 15-(UP) = Reports reached Paris today that Germany and Italy were having some diffi- culty in working out details of their military pact and that 1t might be necessary to delay it's signature. Chief sources of discussion, ac- cording to these reports, were whether the pact should bind the signatories to go to each others aid automatically in event of war or merely to consult, and what the division of political zones of in- fluence should be in Southeastern Europe.
 Dispatches purported to give the basic outline of the proposed pact. The most detailed report was pulp lished in the newspaper Matin, which asserted that Adolf Hitler wrote draft of the pact personal ly, that it would run for 10 years, after which it would be revised if necessary.
 Poland Optimistic
 Warsaw, Poland, May 15-(UP)- Tension was supplanted by optim- ism today as the result of Premier Benito Mussolini's speech and de- ials frcm Danzig that Nazis there planned gigantic demonstration tonight.
 Nevertheless, Poland's army, now numbering well over 100000, re- mained on the alert and Gen. Ta- deusz KasprZycki, war minister, left for Paris where he was expected to look into the possibility of acquir- ing French machines for Poland'S armaments works.
 Reports were circulated yesterday that more than 40,000 young Ger mans had slipped quietly into Dan- zig in the last 10 days as tourists to take part in a demonstration to- night. It was reported also that Danzig newspaper had printed large quantities of ballots marked "yeS" and mo" as if for a plebiscite.
 Dispatches from Danzig today quoted Nazi circles denying any big demonstration was to be held to- night.
 Russia Refuses Britain
 London, May 15-(UP)-Soviet Russia was understood in author itative sources today to have po- litely rejected Great Britain's pro- posals for adherence of Moscow to the European anti-aggression front.
 The Russian government, in 6 note to Britain, described the Brit ish formula as inadequate" It stood pat on the original Soviet suggestions for a more comprehen- sive mutual aid agreement with Great Britain and France.
 Adherence of the Moscow govern ment to the anti-aggression front has become a key factor in the British French effort to form a bar rier to future aggressive expansion in Europe. The adherence of Tur- key to the united front last week appeared to make more likely the inclusion of the Soviets in the se- ries of alliances and it was general ly believed that negotiations would be continued in an effort to achieve that goal.

than month. shading the record of 19 days testimony previously set by James P. Purcell, city accountant.
 Exhibits admitted to the trial last week, show, according to Brown, that 12 city departments during the eight years of the alleged conspir- acy, 1930-1937, oyer-expended their budgetary appropriations by almost $, ,000 900.
 The City of Waterbury has been the scene of municipal Investigation and trial since January IT, 1888. when former States Attorney Lawr- ence L. Lewis inaugurated a probe based first on the alleged absence of city records from the controllers office vacated at that time by Dan- iel J. Leary.
 The state charges that the records were destroyed in an attempt to conceal the alleged conspiracy. Al- though the trial did not start until November 29, and no evidence was heard until January 31, 1899, num- erous proceedings relative to the case were heard by Judge Inglis in the interim.
