tery in New York city and "opened fire" in the United States. Denied tie use of the streets for their meetings, opposed from every quar- ter by the minimizing, and harrass- ed by rowdyism in rented halls, the officers finally succeeded in estab- fishing centers of work. Others were opened as quickly as converts were made and limited contribu- tionS permitted. Gradually the movement spread from city to city until its agencies now operate in every state of the country, and 20,- 900 men and women of the business and professional world in 1,200 com- munitieS serve on advisory boards which are the interpretive channels between the Army and the public.
 The Salvation Army at the pres ent time carries on its activities in 97 countries and colonies and breaches it's message in 104 lan- guages. Its religious institutions number 17816, and its social in- stitutions and agencies 1884. Over 27Cvo officers are employed in its ranks.
 Activities
 Some of the Army's ever-active institutions and services today in- clude: Family and prison welfare, community centers, men and wo- mems hotels and shelters, residences for young business women, exten- sive religious and social programs for children and young people, em- ployment bureaus, social service centers for men, homes and hospi- talA for women, missing persons bureaus, settlements and day nurs- cries, transient service for men and women, summer camping.
 Notable among the services of The Salvation Army is its ability to cope with local and national enaergen- cies, floods, hurricanes, earthquakes and fires.
 In every armed conflict since the Boer War, The Salvation Army has ministered to the welfare of sol- diers, both in the theater of train ing and of figthing and is at pres ent on the battle fronts of Europe nd Asia. In Finland its four hun dred officers are devoting their full time in caring for 75,000 evacuees in 90 centers.

As part of nation wide observ- ance by The Salvation Army of its diamond jubilee celebration, the local corps will hold special serv- ices on Sunday, March 10, at 6:30 and 8 D. m. in the chapel on Cherry street. The weekly radio-broadcast on Sunday over Station WATR at 8 D. m, which is directed by Charles Rietdyke, will also be devoted to 8 recognition of the 75th anniversary of the founding of The Salvation Army by William Booth and the 60th anniversary of the commence ment of the work in this country. During the broadcast Charles Riet- dyke will interview Miss Belinda Denegri, who is one of the veterans of the corps who took part in the early-day struggles of the organiza- ton in this country.
 Religious Efforts
 In 1865 William Booth, an ordain- ed minister of the Methodist church, began gospel services in g tent in Whitechapel, London, to reach men and women untouched by ordinary religious efforts. The meetings were successful in spite of much oppo- sition and persecution and the work grew rapidly.
 A military form of government was adopted in 1878, with uniforms and other distinguishing features, and the name was changed from The Christian Mission to The Sal- vation Army, with William Booth becoming its first general.
 With the publication in 1890 of General Booths Tn Darkest Eng land and the Way Out" hitherto apathetic public, was aroused and began contributing to the work. Food depotS and shelters, rescue homes, and employment bureaus were set up, and other agencies devised to change the evil and un- just conditions of the poor. The Army became recognized, far and near, as a champion of the op- pressed, terror to evil-doers, and a national bulwark against the en- croachmerts of vice.
 This religious and humanitarian work of The Salvation Army be- came an intense missionary crusade of meeting human need with divine love. Its fervor and intensity caused the parliament of England and the central government of Japan to enact legislation limiting vice conditions. Its power was felt in every community which it en- tered, even to tanning the criminal tribes of India at the request of the governor of the United Prov inceS.

Police Board Now Considering Placing Fire Extin. guishers On Patrol Cars-W Widows Pension Denied

Fire Chief Thomas F. Cavanaugh told the fire board yesterday that, because of 8 restricted budget, the fire department cannot provide fire extinguishers to be used in the police patrol cars for fighting minor blazes.
 The report was in reference to the recent recommendation of Commis- sioner John Brodie that such equip- ment be installed in police cars. MT. Brodie said, however, he still thinks his idea a good one and will take it up with the police department.
 Radi Equipment
 Commissioner Archibald Phillips recommended the installation of a two-way radio service in the fire chiefs car. The board voted to refer the subject to the committee on pur- chases. Cost of the equipment would be about $450. The board authorized the chief to purchase 730 feet of hose with the recommendation that 1t be bought from the nearby plant at Sandy Hook.

The Waterbury Democrat., 1940-03-07

Lynch reported to the board that Mrs. Louise Doderer, widow of the late Fire Captain George Doderer, is not eligible for a pension under the recently enacted Culhane pen- sion act because the provision is not retroactive.
 Previous Decisions
 Captain Doderer served from 1894 to 1923 and died in 1895. The Cul- hane act became effective in April, 1899. Corporation Counsel Lynch had made the same report in previ- ous cases, but apparently the misun- derstanding exists that the fund is retroactive.
 The board voted to inform Mrs. Doderer of the counsel's opinion.
 Pasquale Petit, Simon Cleary, Ed ward J. Vollone and Timothy Daly applied for appointment to the call force of the department and their applications were placed on file.
