LAWYERS CLASH
 OVER CHARGES
Attorney Weisman, Davis, ~Brothers=in=Law, Pros
 vide Fireworks

Loud words and unpleasant names were exchanged by Attorneys Jo- Seph J. Davis and Herman J. Weis- man as they left the superior court building late yesterday, after the hearing on the divorce action of Mrs. Elizabeth Weisman Davis against Attorney Davis had been postponed.
 The postponement was due to the decision of Attorney Davis to con- test his wife's action, which pre- viously had been scheduled for hearing as an uncontested issue.
 Attorney Weisman, brother of Mrs. Davis, sought permission un- der that condition, to amend the complaint with another charge, the nature of which was not disclosed. AS the two lawyers left the build ing they were heard arguing in loud tones, referring to each other in no complimentary fashion. In her com plaint as it now stands, Mrs. Davis alleges cruelty.

on North Main street. The old church also originally fronted on North Main street, but was set well back from the roadway and old residents may recall the familiar iron fence before it and the stone area-way that led up to its front steps.
 Since 1855
 Only the rear of the old church may be seen from Phoenix avenue, but its outlines are easily recog- niZable. It has been on its pres- ent site since 1855 when it was completed and dedicated on April IS. From that time until the 1890's it was in constant use by members of the Second Congre- gational parish.
 It figured in the famous blizzard and hurricane of 1857 when on the early morning of January 19, 1857, the spire of the church, tow- ering 203 feet above the founda- tion, fell and destroyed the south west corner of the church itself. The lofty spire was never rebuilt. In its place was constructed c broad cupola.
 In the early sos the church bought the site of its present beau- tiful edifice on West Main street and started construction of a new church. Last services were held in the old church on July 1, 1894.
 Several years before this the Odd Fellows of Waterbury had formed a building association to acquire property for 8 home for their order. The Second Con- gregational church and the prop erty on which it stood were bought in 1894 and plans made for . structure on the land. The cor nerstone for the building was laid November 27, 1894, with little or no formal celebration.
 Dedication
 A year later, however, on Oct ober 15, 1895, the building itself was dedicated with great cere- monies as the date coincided with the 50th anniversary of the estab- lishment of the order in Water bury.
 The, Odd Fellows hall proper occupies the upper portion of the old church building, the lower section of 1t being part of the Grieve, Bissett and Holland store. The original side and rear walls of the church were left standing and from the rear or a point above the outlines of the old church are still plainly visible.
 The cupola that replaced the the destroyed steeple back in 1857 is no more having been removed when the church building was united to the new structure.
 The lower part of the old church exterior is partly obscured by brick additions to the surround ing property, but its general out- line is still preserved.
 Removal of an old landmark, one connected with an industry that vanished with the horse and buggy, brings another to light and right in the heart of the bustling city. .f

Love wnrketh no i'll 10 his neigh
bour: therefore love is the fulfilling
of the law" The love which does
no harm to ones fellow man is that
expression of the Christ-spirit which
was so perfectly eXemplified by Jesus
during his ministry. He was often
wrongly accused. yet he retaliated in
no way. but healed and blessed. :.
All forms of aggression. greed, ha-
tired. desire for war, and the like,
arise primarily from wrong concept
of God. with its attendant fear. Be-
lief in evil or the power of evil is
disbelief in God. This naturally
breeds fear, for ignorance is the very
foundation of such a state OF thought.
John wrote II John 4:16. 49,: He
that dwelleth in love dwelleth in
God. and God in him. There is
no fear in love; but perfect love
casteth out fear" Thus, we see, the
solution to our problem OF overcom-
ing fear of or distrust of n neighbor-
ing nation will be accomplished as
we gain the right understanding of
God and His perfect government Of
His creation. and as we express the
love which "dwelleth in Cod" The
acceptance and realization of the fact

the fiamboyant statements of those
desiring or rather working for the
adoption of the VIII. bill, the
Blacklist. enthused by all this mis-
leading propaganda. high pressure
salesmanship. big feeds, dances etc.,
fell for what has since proved to be
Just another promise, made TO be
broken. The millions OF dollars Of
revolving credit funds eventually re-
solved itself into thousands and not
millions.
The millions of educational funds
in the final analysis were mere
trlckle IN the stream. Aud then to
add insult to injury the color line
was drawn-a quarter breed or less
had and still has no chance to take
advantage of such loans. Recently, a
circular or regulation has been re-
celved banning loans to any Indian
whose degree Of Indian blood is less
than one-quarter or in another in
stance according to wire received
last year, a quarter breed or less
married to whiteman.
Just how all this is going to work
out no one knows. Tribal funds are
involved in the revolving credit
funds. If things get tough and
should the Indian Department rule
that quarter bloodsi or less are not
eligible for loans, even though these
funds are being used, it is essential
that we know just how the depart
ment arrives at this conclusion. Has
the Department segregated the tribal
or Indian dollar from the borrowed
or Government dollar? have been
asked. In a revolving fund of
Sl50,OOO 90, $50, 10000 of which is
tribal. with Iepayments and interest
being paid in every day and with
Withdrawals covering loans being
made daily. just how can any indi.
vidual distinguish An Indian or
tribal dollar? 1t can't be done ex-
cept to rule that tribal funds are to
be used for luaning purposes, re-
gardless of degree of Indian blood
while government or borrowed
money is to be used exclusively by
those having one fourth or more In
dian blood. All this contrary to the
Black feet constitution which states
specifically in Article VIII, Sec. 2
Economic rights. - IAN members
of the tribe shall be accorded equal
opportunities to participate in the
economic resources and activities OF
the reservation. No more need be
said except to state that anywhere
