The Waterbury Democrat., 1940-11-11

Waterbury observed Armistice Day today, with banks, schools and pub lie buildings closed but with stores and factories operating as usual. The city's formal observance of the 22d anniversary of the end of the first World War was held yesterday with thousands lining the streets for the largest Armistice Day parade in years. Other events of yesterday in- cluded memorial exercises at the Honor Roll in Library park, dinner last night at which Gold Star Mothers were guests of honor, and an entertainment and dance at Temple hall.
 Offices Closed
 City hall offices were closed today, along with state and federal offices. City court was in session but other courts we're closed. Public and pa- rochial school children enjoyed a holiday. The post office operated on a holiday schedule.
 A brief period of silence was ob- served as Il o'clock this morning, as the city marked the hour when the Cease firing" order became ef- fective in 1918. Factory whistles were blown as the hour arrived.
 The parade was viewed as highly successful, and the sidewalks were lined with rows of spectators several deep as 1t passed over downtown streets. National Guardsmen, vet erans' organizations, Boy Scouts, nurses and bands and drum corps were among the marchers. At the Honor Roll Mayor Vincent Scully and Rev. Roger B. T. Anderson, rec tor of Trinity church, pleaded for an America so strong that no nation will dare attack her and the sacri- fees of 1917 and 1918 will not be needed again. Wreaths were placed at the memorial by Henry Barry and Michael DeZinno. Prayers were offered by Right Reverend MonSig- nor Joseph J. Valdambrini and Rab- bi Moses D. Sheinkopf. Joseph Le- zotte sang several numbers, and the roll call of departed veterans was read by Capt J. Peter Costigan. Tho memorial program was directed by Col. William J. Shanahan.
 Parade Reviewed
 The parade was reviewed at the city hall by Mayor scully and other officials, and at the end of its route by Major Newton Alexander, mar Shal, and his staff
 Michael Giordano was toaStmaster at the annual Armistice Day din- ner last night, and introduced q number of prominent speakers. The entertainment program was directed by Jack Henry.
 Father Anderson said during his address:
 Here we have gathered a group of Gold Star Mothers who gave their all - the lives of precious sons in conflict, sons whose names we honor today with reverence and devotion and our prayers that the Prince of Peace will grant them peace and eternal light. Now we find ourselves facing an Armistice day with the world aflame, full of hatred, bitterness, with great powers banded together and tell ing us that democracy Is futile and the only soverign power Is in the state.
 '"They tell us that man has no rights, no possessions; all belong to the state, and that democracy is dead .... Treaties have been torn up and peaceful nations in- vaded and swallowed up. Armis- tice day again finds us girding our selves for national defense. There is feverish rush about the na-

ton as the building of armament, munitions and defenses is pushed.
 Righteous Cause
 we do not want to go to war again. Yet national defense is thrust upon us and we have to arm so that no leader of 8 totalitarian state, no matter how he frowns upon democracy, shall impose upon us and take away our tradi- tional inheritance of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. The cause of democracy is righteous and just. So long as we adhere to the words of the Star Spangled Banner. And this be our motto In God is our trust then those we commemorate here today shall not have died in vain."
 Mayor Scully said, in part:
 The only assurance America has that she will not be forced to defend herself is the confi- dence that she can be strong enough so that no nation or com bination of nations will dare at- tack us.
 We can learn many lessons from Armistice day, but the most important is that, however much we deplore morally the situation prevailing today, we are living in a world where only the strong survive. While we in this democratic country feel that people should govern them selves, there are mighty forces in th1 world who do not agree with that political philosophy and militray conquest has been the lot of countries who are not strong enough to defend them selves.
 American Way
 Every American citizen has the conviction that the Amer ican way of life which our fore- fathers developed and transmit ted to us, which our soldiers fought and died for, should be preserved and by us transmitted to our children. Every man, woman and child in America has duty to perform in preserv- ing and perpetuating our tradi- tions.
 We are a people who wish to live in peace and pursue our daily activities without inter- ference but in a world where war rages, good Judgment makes 1t imperative that we be pre- pared to guarantee to ourselves that our American shores be strong enough to repel any or all who may desire to attack us. The American people are will ing and strong enough to pre- serve our democratic institutions and we all pray that another Armistice day will find America enjoying the blessings of peace and security"
