CIVIC ORCHESTRA
 OFFERS CONCERT
Second Program of Sea- son to Be Presented
 Wednesday Night

The Civic orchestra of Waterbury will offer It's second concert of the 1sSs-S9 season wednesday night this week, Mario Di Cecco, local rnusi- clan directing. There will be two guest artists, Anita Brookfield, hafpist, and Charles Kurtz, flautist. Since their first concert last year the Civic orchestra has received much praise, and its continuation and functioning as Q permanent musical organization in this city are the hope os its director, the persor1- mel, as well as music lovers in Wa terbury. The orchestra has defn- onstrated their capabilities and their fine work has been duly ap- preciated.
 On Wednesday night MT. Di Geo. co has arranged in addition to the Mozart Concerto for flute and harp, a program to include the florid Inu- sic of Rossini's The Barber of Se- vile" which so many heard over the radio Saturday or at the Metropo- litan; the colorful Rimsky- -Kofsa- koff symphonic Suite "Schehera- zade": Tschaikowsky's waltz from the ballet "Donroschen;" Brahms Hungarian Dance No. 5; and Sibe- Illus tone poem, "Finlandia." Such program will appeal to all in its variety of theme matter and the tunefulness and brilliancy of the composers works to be played.
 Now that the Civic orchestra has established itself as Q capable and musical group there is need of fi- nancial backing to operate, to pre- sent the type concerts such an or- ganizations contemplates, and to give the number of concerts plan ned each season. One thousand dollars is needed to swing the re- maiIiing concerts, Wednesday night and April 10. Subscriptions are be- ing solicited, and by responding to same donor is assured of c worth while symphony orchestra. Even- tually 1t is hoped that the project will become @ civic one and the support will be so general. so much a part of civic life, that the Civic orchestra of Waterbury will support itself through the aid of a general response. Officers of the organiza- tions are President, William J. Pape; vice president, John L. Bonn: treas urer, winthrop W. Spencer: and secretary, John s. Monagan.

Tracing the history of Catholicity in waterbury and linking the names of Pope Plus x1 and Abraham Linz coin as co.workers in the cause of human bettefment, William q. Far giERtOn, city editor of the Water otiry Democrat inspired Q large
 number of men attending the reg
 liar meeting of the St. Francis
 Xavier Holy Name society In the parish hall last night.
 Struggles of the early Catholic settlers in Waterbury were cited by the speaker, who stated that from 1882 to the present, Waterbury has been recognized as Ari outstanding center of Catholic culture and wor- ship in New England. Tn the mis- sion fields of China, India. Mada- gassar and other far-flung places, priests and nuns, natives of Water bury are to be found," he stated.
 Waterbury is also honored for having given the church such out- standing clerics as Rev. Michael J. who founded the Knights of Columbus: Archbishops John G. Murray of St. Paul; and Bishops Joseph E. Mccarthy of Portland. Maine and Matthew Brady of Bur- iington, Vt, as well as Rev. Thomas CCnlon; who was national director of the Holy Name society for eight years, Mir. harrington said.
 The speaker also expressed the hope that Catholic organizations of waterbury would continue to carry out the wishes of the late Pope as expressed in his appeals for Catholic Action, Social Justice, the Legion of Decency and the Catholic Youth organizations. The present time was opportune for development of lead- ership among the Catholic laity in spiritual, civic and national activi- ties.

KALTENBORN REVIEWS
THE EUROPEAN MESS

H. v. Kaltehborn, contemporary
historian and author, surveying Eu-
ropes war, sees "a war of no less
than two years and possibly as much
as four years in prospect as matters
stand today"-with America remain
ing neutral if propaganda barrages
can be fought successfully.
This country can remain neutral,
but what we must now fight is some
thing more insidious, and in a sense
more distant - propaganda. Take
Goering's speech the other day, /
heard and translated the original
which was quite different on several
important points from the official re-
lease in English. Propaganda comes
from all sides, of course, and it serves
its purpose to tell us stories of
hopes and weaknesses. Checking one
side against the other. we can arrive
at the general truth, if we analyze, &"
Mr.. Kaltenborn who recently return
ed from Europe said in an interview
yesterday.
On Germany's getting raw ma
terials in return for a deprecated
currency, he said Germany must ex-
change her products, not money, for
raw materials. Already she has forced
enough things like aspirin and mouth
organs on Europe to keep it supplied
for years. Besides. her production
is geared only to war machinery
now. She must either conquer or in
timidate her source of supplies. And
Hitler has been very expert at the
latter"

right to the title OF the worlds high
est standard OF living for the great
est number OF people History has
proved that vital liberties-religious,
political and economic-must go
hand In hand with free enterprise.
They are far more than idealistic
luxuries. They are literally neces-
stiles.
A steady trend over the world to-
ward abolishment of free enterprise
has finally resulted In what we see
abroad, subjugation of the individual
to the state And make no mistake,
the same trend threatens our liber-
ties and free enterprise in this coun-
try.
That is why it is imperative that
America awaken. Our liberties must
be maintained. To do that, we must
maintain private enterprise. And to
quote Mr.. Benso nagain: ITO con-
tinue to have system of free enter
prise, capital (savings) must flow in
a natural course from private inves-
tors into private enterprises. &.
We have got to release the creative
forces of capital and industry II we
are to keep our freedom"
