 Cornerstone Laying
Bishop OBrien Officiates at Our Lady of Mt Carmel
 Ceremonies Praise for Pastor, Congregation

The procession went through the new church, which is in the process of construction, and the site of the new altar was blessed.
 Following the laying of the cor- nerstone, Bishop O'Brien praised the efforts of Father Flynn, his as- sistants, and the members of the parish for their efforts which made possible the erection of the new church.
 Father Flynn declared that the credit belonged to the parishioners, who had contributed time, effort and money to the cause of their church.
 Cites Growth
 Monsignor Valdambrini cited the growth of the Catholic church in Waterbury, pointing out that the city now has three Italian parishes instead of the one 1t had when he came here 28 years ago.
 Father Lynch, the former pastor, recalled the early days of the parish. The new building, he said, repre- sents dream coming true.
 Rev. Austin Saunders, assistant pastor at the church, directed a special musical program in the lower church. It was heard out side by a loudspeaker system.
 The parish's annual bazaar is be- ing held this week at the church grounds, with proceeds going to the building fund.

Fall Of The Bastille

this country chiefly by French so- cieties and Americans who are interested in the study of the French language. But in 1918, when American trops were fight ing in France in the World War, the celebration here was nation wide. and was headed by William H. Taft. One thinks with sadness today of a sentence spoken during the celebration in Independence Hall in Philadelphia. France stands erect today, unconquered and unconquerable."
 The name Bastillc means an armored or fortified building. The construction of the great Bastille in Paris was begun in 1870 to pro- tect the palace of Charles V from the inroads of the Burgundians It was completed in 1883, by the addition of four strong towers. It was used as a prison, and in the minds of the French people was associated with the idea of op- pression. It was said that political prisoners there were treated with extreme cruelty.
 The Bastille was attacked in 1789 by a mob, which killed the governor of the prison and seven of his men. Only seven prisoners were there at the time. They were liberated and carried about the city on the shoulders of the mob. The Bastille was tora down, and Lafayette took the key and sent 1t to Tom Paine in London. He for warded it to George Washington, and it now hangs ill case in the Washington mansion at Mount Vernon. Virginia, with a map of the Bastille. surviving symbols of a great Republic.

BANK RECEIVER
 GRANTED POWER
Court Approves Sugges- ton of Compromise on
 Two PrOmissOry Notes

Superior Court Judge Alfred C. Baldwin has granted permission to Walter Perry, successor receiver of the Merchants Truss company to compromise claims based on two promissory notes held by him. The first note, bears the date october 26, 1929, and is made out for 1900; the sesond, dated December 2, 1881 is for $320. However, the principal on the first has since been reduced to $1 ,266, and on the second to $211 Commissioner Perry sought permis- sion to compromise claims on the notes, because of an offer from Louis Scigliano, maker of the first note, and fourth endorser on the second, to pay $1,218,91 in full settlement Permission was granted by Judge Baldwin last Saturday.
 Judge Carl Foster of superior court has overruled demurrer fil- ed by the defendant in the case of Roland V. Sherwood vs. Grace Terry Sherwood. She claimed that certain factors which the law considers es- sential to substantiate a charge of intolerable cruelty were not alleged in this case. Judge Foster said in- tolerable cruelty could be of many sorts, in overriding the demurrer.
 Divorce proceedings against his wife on charges of intolerable cruelty were brought by Sherwood last Mo- vember. The couple were married in November. 1915.

For one hundred and fifty years the French have celebrated Bas- tile Day on July Fourteenth, ten days later than our own Inde- pe1dence Day.
 The Fall of the Bastille, July IA, 1789, marked the beginning of the first French Republic. More than that. 1t marked the beginning of the first republic in Europe. The site of the Bastille is now in the hands of the Germans, and Hitler is opposed to Republics.
 Celebrated In U. S.
 Bastille Day has been cele- brated in our own country from the beginning. When the Bastille fell in Paris in l789 the event was hailed with joy in this country. We naturally were sympathetic with the French Revolution against an oppressive and despotic monarchy. A year later, in 1790, there was a public celebration of the anniversary in Philadelphia, home of the Declaration of Inde. pendence.
 The French peopie got many of their ideas about a republican form of government from the young United States. The writ ings of the American patriot, Tom Paine, were even more popular in France than in this country. He was a great believer in "The Rights of Man, and his writings encouraged the French in their Revolution. Paine became mem- Der of the National Convention in France, and took part in the trial of Louis XVI. He was the con- meeting link between the Amer ican and the French Revolution.

WHAT ABOUT THE
DISTRICT POWER PLANT?

1t has been quite a few weeks nov
since the Imperial Irrigation DlstrlctS
board of directors undertook to decioe
what shall be done about the lmpenoiIe
shortage of electrical energy to supply
potential customers on district power
lines.
If there is a pending shortage, that IS.
Even that point is not clear.
Admitting that the decision Is ser
ious one. and should not be approached
lightly nor in haste, it still seems that
time enough has elapsed so that the
directors should be a5le to give the peo-
pie some indication of the progress they
have made, if there has been progress
Inaction cannot solve a problem OF THIS
magnitude And, since it involves every
person in the valley. the people are en-
titled to know what steps are being taken.
Shall the district remain inactive IN
the matter of further power sales until
the All American canal plants are IN
operation? And, if so, will the district
maintain the large force of statesmen 1t
now has-and what duties will il assign
them?
Shall the district build a line to Blais-
dell, near Yuma, to hook up with fed
eral power line and use Parker Dam
power as auxiliary energy until the All
American canal plants are ready Tor ser
vice? If so, how long will 1t take to build
the line. and what will it cost?
Shall the district buy and install new
diesel generating equipment for the
Brawley plant to supply its auxiliary
power? If so, how long before such addi-
tional units can be il operation?
The Nev-Cal offer to supply auxiliary
power has been refused, and possibly so
in the public Interest. But the course to
be taken by the district is Yet to be clar-
fled, and the people have gigantic stake
in that course. 1t is in fact, the peoples
own business which is at stake.
Perhaps the districts decision has been
made. Or perhaps the district is even
now CARRYING on negotiations or taking
steps to overcome whatever handicaps
might exist The directors are competent
men, and they have employed competent
help-but surely it is time they were let
ting the people know what they are do
ing, or intend to do
It's our business they are transacting.

THE POWER OF THE PRESS
OrOVlIle MercurN-keylsterl

A peculiar thing about the situation
in totalitarian power is that the gov
ernment controlled newspapers there
have more influence than the free press
has in this country.
In Italy all along the people have been
in favor of peace The newspapers have
been laying off the war talk on orders
from above This week the Italian press
gets the go-ahead signal on war propa-
ganda and the Italian people, not hearing
the other side from any source, begin to
get war conscious The shift seems rath-
er sudden We venture to say there won't
be any outward opposition if Italy goes
into the war.
When Italian newspapers shift their
position and begin favoring something
that has been unpopular their readers
can't say a word. Here, if newspaper
did anything like that there would be Il
flood Of letters in opposition, and the
people would hear both sides.
